16:007:061 And these were they which went up also
from Telmelah,
Telharesha,
Cherub, Addon, and Immer: but they could not shew
their
father’s house, nor their seed, whether they
were of
Israel.
16:007:062 The children of Delaiah, the children of
Tobiah, the children
of
Nekoda, six hundred forty and two.
16:007:063 And of the priests: the children of
Habaiah, the children of
Koz,
the children of Barzillai, which took one of the
daughters
of Barzillai the Gileadite to wife, and was called
after
their name.
16:007:064 These sought their register among those
that were reckoned by
genealogy,
but it was not found: therefore were they, as
polluted,
put from the priesthood.
16:007:065 And the Tirshatha said unto them, that
they should not eat of
the
most holy things, till there stood up a priest with
Urim
and
Thummim.
16:007:066 The whole congregation together was forty
and two thousand
three
hundred and threescore,
16:007:067 Beside their manservants and their maidservants,
of whom there
were
seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven:
and they
had
two hundred forty and five singing men and singing
women.
16:007:068 Their horses, seven hundred thirty and
six: their mules, two
hundred
forty and five:
16:007:069 Their camels, four hundred thirty and five:
six thousand seven
hundred
and twenty asses.
16:007:070 And some of the chief of the fathers gave
unto the work. The
Tirshatha
gave to the treasure a thousand drams of gold, fifty
basons,
five hundred and thirty priests’ garments.
16:007:071 And some of the chief of the fathers gave
to the treasure of
the
work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand
and
two
hundred pound of silver.
16:007:072 And that which the rest of the people gave
was twenty thousand
drams
of gold, and two thousand pound of silver, and
threescore
and seven priests’ garments.
16:007:073 So the priests, and the Levites, and the
porters, and the
singers,
and some of the people, and the Nethinims, and all
Israel,
dwelt in their cities; and when the seventh month
came,
the children of Israel were in their cities.
16:008:001 And all the people gathered themselves
together as one man
into
the street that was before the water gate; and they
spake
unto
Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses,
which
the lord had commanded to Israel.
16:008:002 And Ezra the priest brought the law before
the congregation
both
of men and women, and all that could hear with
understanding,
upon the first day of the seventh month.
