Nehemiah 13:10-13

10I also learnedH3045 thatH3588 because the portionsH4521 for the LevitesH3881 had notH3808 been given to themH5414, allH376 the LevitesH3881 and singersH7891 responsible for performingH6213 the serviceH4399 had gone backH1272 to their own fieldsH7704. 11So I rebukedH7378 the officialsH5461 and askedH559, “WhyH4069 has the houseH1004 of GodH430 been neglectedH5800?”

Then I gathered the Levites and singers togetherH6908 and stationed themH5975 atH5921 their postsH5977, 12and allH3605 JudahH3063 broughtH935 a tenthH4643 of the grainH1715, new wineH8492, and oilH3323 into the storeroomsH214. 13I appointed as treasurersH686 overH5921 the storeroomsH214 ShelemiahH8018 the priestH3548, ZadokH6659 the scribeH5608, and PedaiahH6305 ofH4480 the LevitesH3881, with HananH2605 sonH1121 of ZaccurH2139, the sonH1121 of MattaniahH4983, to assistH5921 themH3027, becauseH3588 they were consideredH2803 trustworthyH539. They were responsible forH5921 distributing the suppliesH2505 to their fellowH251 Levites.
