< 尼希米記 7 >
1 當城垣修好之後,我安了門扇,遂委派了守門者、歌詠者和肋未人。
And it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 以後,我委派了我的兄弟哈納尼,和堡壘長哈納尼雅,管理耶路撒冷,因為哈納尼雅是一個可信賴、敬畏天主出眾的人。
that I gave charge to Ananias my brother, and Ananias the ruler of the palace, over Jerusalem: for he was a true man, and one that feared God beyond many.
3 我命他們說:「耶路撒冷的門,不到太陽發暖不准開;太陽還未落時,就要關門上閂! 守衛當由耶路撒冷的居民中指派,各按自己的班次,各在自己的屋前守衛。」
And I said to them, The gates of Jerusalem shall not be opened till sunrise; and while they are still watching, let the doors be shut, and bolted; and set watches of them that dwell in Jerusalem, [every] man at his post, and [every] man over against his house.
4 那時城市寬闊廣大,但城中居民稀少,房舍還沒有建築。
Now the city [was] wide and large; and the people [were] few in it, and the houses were not built.
5 我的天主使我立意,召集有權勢的人、官長和民眾,要他們來登記。我發現了一冊初次由充軍歸來的人的族譜,上面有這樣的記載:
And God put [it] into my heart, and I gathered the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, into companies: and I found a register of the company that came up first, and I found written in it as follows:
6 以下是由被擄充軍返回本省的子民的人中,當初被巴比倫王拿步高,擄往巴比倫去的人中,回了耶路撒冷和猶大,各本城的人。
Now these [are] the children of the country, that came up from captivity, of the number which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon carried away, and they returned to Jerusalem and to Juda, [every] man to his city;
