Nehemiah 7
1 Now 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,
Da Muren var bygget, lod jeg Portfløjene indsætte, og Dørvogterne, Sangerne og Leviterne blev ansat.
2 that I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the castle, charge over Jerusalem, for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
Overbefalingen over Jerusalem gav jeg min Broder Hanani og Borgøversten Hananja; thi han var en paalidelig Mand og frygtede Gud som faa;
3 And I said to them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot, and while they stand on guard, let them shut the doors, and bar ye them. And appoint watchmen of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, and everyone to be opposite his house.
og jeg sagde til dem: »Jerusalems Porte maa ikke aabnes, før Solen staar højt paa Himmelen; og medens den endnu staar der, skal man lukke og stænge Portene og sætte Jerusalems Indbyggere paa Vagt, hver paa sin Post, hver ud for sit Hus!«
4 Now the city was wide and large, but the people in it were few, and the houses were not built.
Men Byen var udstrakt og stor og dens Indbyggere faa, og Husene var endnu ikke opbygget.
5 And my God put into my heart to gather together the ranking men, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first. And I found written therein:
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:
6 These are the sons of the province who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city,
Følgende er de Folk fra vor Landsdel, der drog op fra Landflygtigheden og Fangenskabet. Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel havde ført dem bort, men nu vendte de tilbage til Jerusalem og Juda, hver til sin By;
