1 Depois que o muro foi reconstruído e que eu coloquei as portas no lugar, foram nomeados os porteiros, os cantores e os levitas.
2 Para governar Jerusalém encarreguei o meu irmão Hanani e, com ele, Hananias, comandante da cidade forte, pois Hananias era íntegro e temia a Deus mais do que a maioria dos homens.
3 Eu lhes disse: As portas de Jerusalém não deverão ser abertas enquanto o sol não estiver alto. E antes de deixarem o serviço, os porteiros deverão fechar e travar as portas. Também designei moradores de Jerusalém para sentinelas, alguns em postos no muro, outros em frente das suas casas.
4 Ora, a cidade era grande e espaçosa, mas havia poucos moradores, e as casas ainda não tinham sido reconstruídas.
5 Por isso o meu Deus pôs no meu coração reunir os nobres, os oficiais e todo o povo para registrá-los por famílias. Encontrei o registro genealógico dos que foram os primeiros a voltar. E assim estava registrado ali:
6 Estes são os homens da província que voltaram do exílio, os quais Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, havia levado prisioneiros. Eles voltaram para Jerusalém e para Judá, cada um para a sua própria cidade,
7 em companhia de Zorobabel, Jesua, Neemias, Azarias, Raamias, Naamani, Mardoqueu, Bilsã, Misperete, Bigvai, Neum e Baaná. E esta é a lista e o número dos que retornaram, pelos chefes de família e respectivas cidades:

62 Os descendentes de Delaías, Tobias e Necoda 642.
63 E dentre os sacerdotes: os descendentes de Habaías, Coz e Barzilai, homem que se casou com uma filha de Barzilai, de Gileade, e que era chamado por aquele nome.
64 Esses procuraram seus registros de família, mas não conseguiram achá-los e, dessa forma, foram considerados impuros para o sacerdócio.
65 Por isso o governador determinou que eles não comessem das ofertas santíssimas enquanto não houvesse um sacerdote para consultar o Urim e o Tumim.
66 O total de todos os registrados foi 42. 360 homens,
67 além de seus 7. 337 servos e servas; havia entre eles 245 cantores e cantoras.
68 Possuíam 736 cavalos, 245 mulas,
69 435 camelos e 6. 720 jumentos.
70 Alguns dos chefes das famílias contribuíram para o trabalho. O governador deu à tesouraria oito quilos de ouro, 50 bacias e 530 vestes para os sacerdotes.
71 Alguns dos chefes das famílias deram à tesouraria, para a realização do trabalho, cento e sessenta quilos de ouro e uma tonelada e trezentos e vinte quilos de prata.
72 O total dado pelo restante do povo foi de cento e sessenta quilos de ouro, uma tonelada e duzentos quilos de prata e 67 vestes para os sacerdotes.
73 Os sacerdotes, os levitas, os porteiros, os cantores e os servidores do templo, e também alguns do povo e os demais israelitas, estabeleceram-se em suas próprias cidades. Quando chegou o sétimo mês e os israelitas tinham se instalado em suas cidades,
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,
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.
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.
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.
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:
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 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.

60 All the Nethinim, and the Sons of the Servants of Solomon, were three hundred, and ninety-two.
61 And, these, are they who came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer,but they could not tell their ancestral house, nor their seed, whether, of Israel, they were:
62 the sons of Delaiah, the sons of Tobiah, the sons of Nekoda,six hundred and forty-two,
63 And, of the priests, the sons of Hobaiah, the sons of Hakkoz,the sons of Barzillai, who had taken of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite to wife, and was called after their name.
64 These, sought their writing wherein they were registered, but it was not found,so they were desecrated out of the priesthood;
65 and the governor told them, they must not eat of the most holy things,until there should stand up a priest, with Lights and Perfections.
66 All the gathered host together, was forty-two thousand, three hundred, and sixty;
67 besides, their men-servants and maid-servants, were these, seven thousand, three hundred, and thirty-seven,and, to them, pertained, singing-men and singing-women, two hundred, and forty-five:
68 their horses, were seven hundred, and thirty-six,their mules, two hundred, and forty-five;
69 camels, four hundred, and thirty-five,asses, six thousand, seven hundred, and twenty.
70 And, a portion of the ancestral chiefs, gave unto the work,the governor, gave unto the treasury, of gold, a thousand darics, tossing bowls, fifty, tunics for priests, five hundred, and thirty;
71 and, some of the ancestral chiefs, gave unto the treasury of the work, of gold, twenty thousand darics,and, of silver, two thousand and two hundred manehs;
72 and, that which the rest of the people gave, was, of gold, twenty thousand darics, and, of silver, two thousand manehs,and, tunics for priests, sixty-seven.
73 So the priests and the Levites and the door-keepers and the singers and some of the people, and the Nethinim and all Israel, took up their abode in their cities. And, when the seventh month arrived, the sons of Israel were in their cities.
