Nehemiah 7

1Now it came to pass, when the wallH2346 wasH1961 builtH1129, and I had setH5975 up the doorsH1817, and the porters and the singersH7891 and the LevitesH3881 were appointedH5975, 2that I gave my brotherH251 HananiH2607, and HananiahH2608 the governor of the castle, charge over JerusalemH3389; for he was a faithful manH376, and fearedH3372 GodH430 above manyH7227. 3And I saidH559 unto them, Let not the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 be openedH6605 until the sunH8121 be hot; and while they standH5975 on guardH4929, let them shut the doorsH1817, and bar ye them: and appointH5975 watches of the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, every oneH376 in his watchH4931, and every oneH376 to be over against his houseH1004. 4Now the cityH5892 was wideH7342 and largeH1419; but the peopleH5971 were fewH4592 therein, and the housesH1004 were not builded.

5And my GodH430 putH5414 into my heartH3820 to gatherH6908 togetherH6908 the nobles, and the rulers, and the peopleH5971, that they might be reckoned by genealogyH3187. And I foundH4672 the bookH5612 of the genealogyH3187 of them that cameH5927 up at the firstH7223, and I foundH4672 writtenH3789 therein: 6These are the children of the provinceH4082, that wentH5927 up out of the captivity of those that had been carried awayH7725, whom NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had carried awayH7725, and that returnedH7725 unto JerusalemH3389 and to JudahH3063, every oneH376 unto his cityH5892; 7who cameH935 with ZerubbabelH2216, JeshuaH3442, NehemiahH5166, AzariahH5838, Raamiah, Nahamani, MordecaiH4782, BilshanH1114, Mispereth, BigvaiH902, Nehum, BaanahH1196.
