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 my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he [was] a faithful man, and feared 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 to them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun shall be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar [them]: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one [to be] over against his house.

And my God put into my heart to assemble the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them who came up at the first, and found written in it,
