Nehemiah 7:1-5
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.
