Nehemiah 7

1 Nehemiah committeth the charge of Jerusalem to Hanani and Hananiah. 5 A register of the genealogy of them which came at the first out of Babylon, 8 of the people, 39 of the priests, 43 of the Levites, 46 of the Nethinims, 57 of Solomon's servants, 63 and of the priests which could not find their pedigree. 66 The whole number of them, with their substance. 70 Their obligations.

 7:1 ¶ And it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors,—and the doorkeepers and the singers and the Levites had been appointed,

 7:2 that I gave Hanani my brother, and Hananiah captain of the castle, charge over Jerusalem, for, he, was a truly faithful man, and revered God above many.

 7:3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until, hot, be the sun, and, while they are standing by, let them close the doors, and make them fast,—setting watches, of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one over against his own house.

 7:4 Now, the city, was broad on both hands, and large, but, the people, were few in the midst thereof,—and the houses had not been built.

 7:5 ¶ So then my God put it into my heart, and I gathered together the nobles and the deputies and the people, to register their genealogy,—then found I a register roll, of them who came up at the first, and found written therein:—

 7:6 These, are the sons of the province, who came up from among the Captives of the Exile, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did exile,—but they came back to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one to his own city;

 7:7 who came in with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah,—the number of the men of the people of Israel.
