The Levites ^H3881: the sons ^H1121 of Jeshua ^H3091, of Kadmiel ^H6934, of the sons ^H1121 of [fn]Hodevah ^H1937, 74 ^H7657 H702.

Now the priests ^H3548, the Levites ^H3881, the gatekeepers ^H7778, the singers ^H7891, some ^H4480 of the people ^H5971, the temple ^H5411 servants ^H5411, and all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478 lived ^H3427 in their cities ^H5892.

And when the seventh ^H7637 month ^H2320 came ^H5060, the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 were in their cities ^H5892.

Then Nehemiah ^H5166, who ^H1931 was the [fn]governor ^H8660, and Ezra ^H5830 the priest ^H3548 and scribe ^H5608, and the Levites ^H3881 who taught ^H995 the people ^H5971 said ^H559 to all ^H3605 the people ^H5971, “This ^H1931 day ^H3117 is holy ^H6918 to the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430; do not mourn ^H56 or weep ^H1058.” For all ^H3605 the people ^H5971 were weeping ^H1058 when they heard ^H8085 the words ^H1697 of the Law ^H8451.

Then on the second ^H8145 day ^H3117 the heads ^H7218 of fathers’ ^H1 households of all ^H3605 the people ^H5971, the priests ^H3548, and the Levites ^H3881 were gathered ^H622 to Ezra ^H5830 the scribe ^H5608 so that they might gain ^H7919 insight ^H7919 into the words ^H1697 of the Law ^H8451.

Then the Levites ^H3881, Jeshua ^H3091, Kadmiel ^H6934, Bani ^H1137, Hashabneiah ^H2813, Sherebiah ^H8274, Hodiah ^H1941, Shebaniah ^H7645, and Pethahiah ^H6611 said ^H559, “Arise ^H6965, bless ^H1288 the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430 forever ^H4480 H5769 and ever ^H5704 H5769!

May Your glorious ^H3519 name ^H8034 be blessed ^H1288

And exalted ^H7311 above ^H5921 all ^H3605 blessing ^H1293 and praise ^H8416!

“[fn]Now because of all ^H3605 this ^H2088

We are making ^H3772 an agreement ^H548 in writing ^H3789;

And on the sealed ^H2856 document are the names of our leaders ^H8269, our Levites ^H3881, and our priests ^H3548.”

Now the rest ^H7605 of the people ^H5971, the priests ^H3548, the Levites ^H3881, the gatekeepers ^H7778, the singers ^H7891, the temple ^H5411 servants ^H5411, and all ^H3605 those who had separated ^H914 themselves from the peoples ^H5971 of the lands ^H776 to the Law ^H8451 of God ^H430, their wives ^H802, their sons ^H1121, and their daughters ^H1323, all ^H3605 those who had ^H3045 knowledge ^H3045 and understanding ^H995,

Likewise we cast ^H5307 lots ^H1486 for the supply ^H7133 of wood ^H6086 among the priests ^H3548, the Levites ^H3881, and the people ^H5971 so that they could bring ^H935 it to the house ^H1004 of our God ^H430, according to our fathers’ ^H1 households ^H1004, at set ^H2163 times ^H6256 annually ^H8141, to burn ^H1197 on the altar ^H4196 of the LORD ^H3068 our God ^H430, as it is written ^H3789 in the Law ^H8451;

Now from the Levites ^H3881: Shemaiah ^H8098 the son ^H1121 of Hasshub ^H2815, the son ^H1121 of Azrikam ^H5840, the son ^H1121 of Hashabiah ^H2811, the son ^H1121 of Bunni ^H1138;

Now the overseer ^H6496 of the Levites ^H3881 in Jerusalem ^H3389 was Uzzi ^H5813 the son ^H1121 of Bani ^H1137, the son ^H1121 of Hashabiah ^H2811, the son ^H1121 of Mattaniah ^H4983, the son ^H1121 of Mica ^H4316, from the sons ^H1121 of Asaph ^H623, who were the singers ^H7891 for the [fn]service ^H4399 of the house ^H1004 of God ^H430.

And the Levites ^H3881 were Jeshua ^H3091, Binnui ^H1131, Kadmiel ^H6934, Sherebiah ^H8274, Judah ^H3063, and Mattaniah ^H4983 who was [fn]in ^H5921 charge ^H5921 of ^H5921 the songs ^H1960 of ^H1960 thanksgiving ^H1960, he and his brothers ^H251.

As for the Levites ^H3881, the heads ^H7218 of fathers’ ^H1 households were registered ^H3789 in the days ^H3117 of Eliashib ^H475, Joiada ^H3077, and Johanan ^H3076, and Jaddua ^H3037; so were the priests ^H3548 in the reign ^H4438 of Darius ^H1867 the Persian ^H6542.

Now at the dedication ^H2598 of the wall ^H2346 of Jerusalem ^H3389 they sought ^H1245 out ^H1245 the Levites ^H3881 from all ^H3605 their places ^H4725, to bring ^H935 them to Jerusalem ^H3389 so that they could celebrate ^H6213 the dedication ^H2598 with joy ^H8057, with songs ^H8426 of ^H8426 thanksgiving ^H8426 and with songs ^H7892 to the accompaniment of cymbals ^H4700, harps ^H5035, and lyres ^H3658.

On that day ^H3117 men ^H376 were also appointed ^H6485 over ^H5921 the chambers ^H5393 for the supplies ^H214, the contributions ^H8641, the first ^H7225 fruits ^H7225, and the tithes ^H4643, to gather ^H3664 into them from the fields ^H7704 of the cities ^H5892 the portions ^H4521 required by the Law ^H8451 for the priests ^H3548 and Levites ^H3881; for Judah ^H3063 rejoiced ^H8057 over ^H5921 the priests ^H3548 and the Levites ^H3881 who [fn]served ^H5975.

I also [fn]discovered ^H3045 that the portions ^H4521 of the Levites ^H3881 had not been given ^H5414 to them, so the Levites ^H3881 and the singers ^H7891 who performed ^H6213 the service ^H4399 had [fn]gone ^H1272 away ^H1272, each ^H376 to his own field ^H7704.

So I purified ^H2891 them from everything ^H3605 foreign ^H5236, and assigned ^H5975 duties ^H4931 to the priests ^H3548 and the Levites ^H3881, each ^H376 in his work ^H4399,
