Nehemiah 13:19-22
19And 1it cameH1961 aboutH1961 that justH3512 asH3512 it becameH6751 darkH6751 at the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 beforeH6440 the SabbathH7676, I orderedH559 that the doorsH1817 be shutH5462, 2and that they were not to openH6605 them untilH5704 afterH310 the SabbathH7676. Then I stationedH5975 some of my servantsH5288 at the gatesH8179 so that noH3808 loadH4853 would enterH935 on the SabbathH7676 dayH3117. 20OnceH6471 or twiceH8147 the tradersH7402 and merchantsH4376 of everyH3605 kind of merchandiseH4465 spentH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 outsideH4480H2351 JerusalemH3389. 21Then 3I warnedH5749 them and saidH559 to them, “WhyH4069 do you spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 in frontH5048 of the wallH2346? IfH518 you doH8138 so againH8138, I will 4useH7971 forceH3027 against you.” From that timeH6256 on they did not comeH935 on the SabbathH7676. 22And I orderedH559 the LevitesH3881 that 5they were to purifyH2891 themselves and comeH935 as gatekeepersH8104H8179 to sanctifyH6942 the SabbathH7676 dayH3117. For thisH2088 alsoH1571 6rememberH2142 me, my GodH430, and haveH2347 compassionH2347 on me according to the greatnessH7230 of Your mercyH2617.
