Also Bakbukiah ^H1229 and Unni ^H6042, their brothers ^H251, stood opposite ^H5048 them in keeping their responsibilities ^H4931.

and Jonathan ^H3083 became ^H3205 the father ^H3205 of Jaddua ^H3037.

Now in the days ^H3117 of Joiakim ^H3079, the priests ^H3548, the heads ^H7218 of fathers’ ^H1 households were:

of Seraiah ^H8304, Meraiah ^H4811; of Jeremiah ^H3414, Hananiah ^H2608;

of Hilkiah ^H2518, Hashabiah ^H2811; of Jedaiah ^H3048, Nethanel ^H5417.

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

The heads ^H7218 of the Levites ^H3881 were Hashabiah ^H2811, Sherebiah ^H8274, and Jeshua ^H3091 the son ^H1121 of Kadmiel ^H6934, with their brothers ^H251 opposite ^H5048 them, to praise ^H1984 and give ^H3034 thanks ^H3034, by the commandment ^H4687 of David ^H1732 the man ^H376 of God ^H430, watch ^H4929 by ^H5980 watch ^H4929.

Mattaniah ^H4983, Bakbukiah ^H1229, Obadiah ^H5662, Meshullam ^H4918, Talmon ^H2929, and Akkub ^H6126 were gatekeepers ^H7778 keeping ^H4929 watch ^H4929 at the storerooms ^H624 of the gates ^H8179.

These ^H428 served in the days ^H3117 of Joiakim ^H3079 the son ^H1121 of Jeshua ^H3091, the son ^H1121 of Jozadak ^H3087, and in the days ^H3117 of Nehemiah ^H5166 the governor ^H6346 and of Ezra ^H5830 the priest ^H3548 and scribe ^H5608.

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 might celebrate ^H6213 the dedication ^H2598 with gladness ^H8057, with hymns ^H8426 of ^H8426 thanksgiving ^H8426 and with songs ^H7892 to the accompaniment of cymbals ^H4700, harps ^H5035 and lyres ^H3658.

Then I had the leaders ^H8269 of Judah ^H3063 come ^H5927 up ^H5927 on top ^H4480 H5921 of the wall ^H2346, and I had two ^H8147 great ^H1419 choirs ^H8426 of thanksgiving ^H8426 stand ^H5975, [fn]the first proceeding ^H8418 to the right ^H3225 on top ^H4480 H5921 of the wall ^H2346 toward the Dung ^H830 Gate ^H8179.

Hoshaiah ^H1955 and half ^H2677 of the leaders ^H8269 of Judah ^H3063 followed ^H1980 H310 them,

with Azariah ^H5838, Ezra ^H5830, Meshullam ^H4918,

Judah ^H3063, Benjamin ^H1144, Shemaiah ^H8098, Jeremiah ^H3414,

and some ^H4480 of the sons ^H1121 of the priests ^H3548 with trumpets ^H2689; and Zechariah ^H2148 the son ^H1121 of Jonathan ^H3083, the son ^H1121 of Shemaiah ^H8098, the son ^H1121 of Mattaniah ^H4983, the son ^H1121 of Micaiah ^H4320, the son ^H1121 of Zaccur ^H2139, the son ^H1121 of Asaph ^H623,

and his [fn]relatives ^H251, Shemaiah ^H8098, Azarel ^H5832, Milalai ^H4450, Gilalai ^H1562, Maai ^H4597, Nethanel ^H5417, Judah ^H3063, and Hanani ^H2607, with the musical ^H7892 instruments ^H3627 of David ^H1732 the man ^H376 of God ^H430. And Ezra ^H5830 the scribe ^H5608 went before ^H6440 them.

At the Spring ^H5869 Gate ^H8179 they went ^H5927 directly ^H5048 up ^H5927 the steps ^H4609 of the city ^H5892 of David ^H1732 by the stairway ^H4608 of the wall ^H2346 above ^H4480 H5921 the house ^H1004 of David ^H1732 to the Water ^H4325 Gate ^H8179 on the east ^H4217.

The second ^H8145 [fn]choir ^H8426 proceeded ^H1980 to the [fn]left ^H4136, while I followed ^H310 them with half ^H2677 of the people ^H5971 on the wall ^H2346, above ^H4480 H5921 the Tower ^H4026 of Furnaces ^H8574, to the Broad ^H7342 Wall ^H2346,

Eliakim ^H471, Maaseiah ^H4641, Miniamin ^H4509, Micaiah ^H4320, Elioenai ^H454, Zechariah ^H2148 and Hananiah ^H2608, with the trumpets ^H2689;

and Maaseiah ^H4641, Shemaiah ^H8098, Eleazar ^H499, Uzzi ^H5813, Jehohanan ^H3076, Malchijah ^H4441, Elam ^H5867, and Ezer ^H5827.

And the singers ^H7891 made their voices heard ^H8085, with Jezrahiah ^H3156 their overseer ^H6496,

On that day ^H3117 men ^H376 were also appointed ^H6485 over ^H5921 the chambers ^H5393 for the stores ^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 was glad ^H8057 over ^H5921 the priests ^H3548 and Levites ^H3881 who stood ^H5975 to minister.
