Nehemias 7
1 Da Muren var bygget, lod jeg Portfløjene indsætte, og Dørvogterne, Sangerne og Leviterne blev ansat.
And it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, —and the doorkeepers and the singers and the Levites had been appointed,
2 Overbefalingen over Jerusalem gav jeg min Broder Hanani og Borgøversten Hananja; thi han var en pålidelig Mand og frygtede Gud som få;
that I gave Hanani my brother, and Hananiah captain of the castle, charge over Jerusalem, for, he, was a truly faithful man, and revered God above many.
3 og jeg sagde til dem: "Jerusalems Porte må ikke åbnes, før Solen står højt på Himmelen; og medens den endnu står der, skal man lukke og stænge Portene og sætte Jerusalems Indbyggere på Vagt, hver på sin Post, hver ud for sit Hus!"
And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until, hot, be the sun, and, while they are standing by, let them close the doors, and make them fast, —setting watches, of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one over against his own house.
4 Men Byen var udstrakt og stor og dens Indbygere få, og Husene var endnu ikke opbygget.
Now, the city, was broad on both hands, and large, but, the people, were few in the midst thereof, —and the houses had not been built.
5 Da skød min Gud mig i Sinde at samle de store, Forstanderne og Folket for at indføre dem i Slægtsfortegnelser. Og da fandt jeg Slægtebogen over dem, der først var draget op, og i den fandt jeg skrevet:
So then my God put it into my heart, and I gathered together the nobles and the deputies and the people, to register their genealogy, —then found I a register roll, of them who came up at the first, and found written therein: —
6 Følgende er de Folk fra vor Landsdel, der drog op fra Land flygtigheden og Fangenskabet. Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel havde ført dem bort, men nu vendte de til bage til Jerusalem og Juda, hver til sin By;
These, are the sons of the province, who came up from among the Captives of the Exile, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did exile, —but they came back to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one to his own city;
7 de kom sammen med Zerubbabel, Jesua, Nehemja, Azarja, Ra'amja, Nahamani, Mordokaj, Bilsjan, Misperet, Bigvaj, Nehum og Ba'ana. Tallet på Mændene i Israels Folk var:
