Nehemiah 13:1-5

1At thatH1931 timeH3117 the BookH5612 of MosesH4872 was read aloudH7121 in the hearingH241 of the peopleH5971, and in it they foundH4672 the passage statingH3789 thatH834 noH3808 AmmoniteH5984 or MoabiteH4125 should everH5704H5769 enterH935 the assemblyH6951 of GodH430,1 2becauseH3588 they had notH3808 metH6923 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 with foodH3899 and waterH4325, but had hiredH7936 BalaamH1109 to call down a curseH7043 against themH5921 (although our GodH430 had turnedH2015 the curseH7045 into a blessingH1293).

3As soon asH1961 the people heardH8085 this lawH8451, they excludedH914 from IsraelH3478 allH3605 of foreign descentH6154.

4Now beforeH6440 thisH2088, EliashibH475 the priestH3548, a relativeH7138 of TobiahH2900, had been put in charge ofH5414 the storeroomsH3957 of the houseH1004 of our GodH430 5and had preparedH6213 for Tobiah a largeH1419 roomH3957 whereH8033H1961 they had previouslyH6440 storedH5414 the grain offeringsH4503, the frankincenseH3828, the temple articlesH3627, and the tithesH4643 of grainH1715, new wineH8492, and oilH3323 prescribedH4687 for the LevitesH3881, singersH7891, and gatekeepersH7778, along with the contributionsH8641 for the priestsH3548.
