Nehemiah 7 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Neh 7:1Now it happened, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
Neh 7:2that I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananyah the governor of the castle, charge over Yerushalayim; for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
Neh 7:3I said to them, Don't let the gates of Yerushalayim be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand on guard, let them shut the doors, and bar you them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Yerushalayim, everyone in his watch, and everyone to be over against his house.
Neh 7:4Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
Neh 7:5My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found written therein:
