NE-12:1 Now these [are] the priests and the Levites that went

up with

Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah,
Ezra,

NE-12:2 Amariah, Malluch, Hattush,

NE-12:3 Shechaniah, Rehum, Meremoth,

and of their brethren in the days of Jeshua.

NE-12:8 Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel,
Sherebiah, Judah,

[and] Mattaniah, [which was] over the thanksgiving, he and his
brethren.

NE-12:9 Also Bakbukiah and Unni, their brethren, [were] over
against them in

the watches.

NE-12:10 And Jeshua begat Joiakim, Joiakim also begat Eliashib,
and Eliashib

begat Joiada,

NE-12:11 And Joiada begat Jonathan, and Jonathan begat Jaddua.

NE-12:12 And in the days of Joiakim were priests, the chief of
the fathers:

of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

NE-12:13 Of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan;

NE-12:14 Of Melicu, Jonathan; of Shebaniah, Joseph;

NE-12:15 Of Harim, Adna; of Meraioth, Helkai;

NE-12:16 Of Iddo, Zechariah; of Ginnethon, Meshullam;

NE-12:17 Of Abijah, Zichri; of Miniamin, of Moadiah, Piltai;

NE-12:18 Of Bilgah, Shammua; of Shemaiah, Jehonathan;

NE-12:20 Of Sallai, Kallai; of Amok, Eber;

NE-12:21 Of Hilkiah, Hashabiah; of Jedaiah, Nethaneel.

NE-12:22 The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and
Johanan, and

Jaddua, [were] recorded chief of the fathers: also the priests,
to the reign

of Darius the Persian.

NE-12:23 The sons of Levi, the chief of the fathers, [were]
written in the

book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son
of Eliashib.

NE-12:24 And the chief of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah,
and Jeshua the

son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise
[and] to give

thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God,
ward over

against ward.

NE-12:25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon,
Akkub, [were]

porters keeping the ward at the thresholds of the gates.

NE-12:26 These [were] in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua,
the son of

Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra
the priest, the

scribe.

NE-12:27 And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they
sought the

Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to
keep the

dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with
singing, [with]

cymbals, psalteries, and with harps.

NE-12:28 And the sons of the singers gathered themselves
together, both out

of the plain country round about Jerusalem, and from the
villages of

Netophathi;

NE-12:29 Also from the house of Gilgal, and out of the fields
of Geba and

Azmaveth: for the singers had builded them villages round about
Jerusalem.

NE-12:30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves,
and purified

the people, and the gates, and the wall.

NE-12:31 Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall,
and appointed

two great [companies of them that gave] thanks, [whereof one]
went on the

right hand upon the wall toward the dung gate:

NE-12:32 And after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes
of Judah,

NE-12:33 And Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

NE-12:34 Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,

NE-12:35 And [certain] of the priests' sons with trumpets;
[namely],

Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of
Mattaniah, the

son of Michaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph:

NE-12:36 And his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarael, Milalai,
Gilalai, Maai,

Nethaneel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of
David the man of

God, and Ezra the scribe before them.

NE-12:37 And at the fountain gate, which was over against them,
they went up

by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall,
above the

house of David, even unto the water gate eastward.

NE-12:38 And the other [company of them that gave] thanks went
over against

[them], and I after them, and the half of the people upon the
wall, from

beyond the tower of the furnaces even unto the broad wall;

NE-12:39 And from above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old
gate, and

above the fish gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of
Meah, even

unto the sheep gate: and they stood still in the prison gate.

NE-12:40 So stood the two [companies of them that gave] thanks
in the house

of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me:

NE-12:41 And the priests; Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Michaiah,
Elioenai,

Zechariah, [and] Hananiah, with trumpets;

NE-12:42 And Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and
Jehohanan,

and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang loud,
with Jezrahiah

[their] overseer.

NE-12:43 Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and
rejoiced: for God

had made them rejoice with great joy: the wives also and the
children

rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

NE-12:44 And at that time were some appointed over the chambers
for the

treasures, for the offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the
tithes, to

gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of
the law for

the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and
for the

Levites that waited.

NE-12:45 And both the singers and the porters kept the ward of
their God, and

the ward of the purification, according to the commandment of
David, [and] of

Solomon his son.

NE-12:46 For in the days of David and Asaph of old [there were]
chief of the

singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto God.

NE-12:47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the
days of

Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters,
every day his

portion: and they sanctified [holy things] unto the Levites; and
the Levites

sanctified [them] unto the children of Aaron.
