Nehemiah 7
1 When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
Setelah tembok itu selesai dibangun, aku menyuruh supaya daun-daun pintunya dipasang. Lalu penjaga-penjaga pintu gerbang, para penyanyi dan orang-orang Lewi kusuruh melakukan tugasnya masing-masing.
2 Then I put my brother Hanani in charge of Jerusalem, along with Hananiah the commander of the fortress, because he was a faithful man who feared God more than most.
Pemerintahan kota Yerusalem kuserahkan kepada saudaraku Hanani dan kepada Hananya, panglima benteng, karena dia lebih daripada orang lain, takut kepada Allah dan dapat dipercaya.
3 And I told them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the guards are on duty, keep the doors shut and securely fastened. And appoint the residents of Jerusalem as guards, some at their posts and some at their own homes.”
Kukatakan kepada mereka, "Pintu gerbang Yerusalem baru boleh dibuka kalau hari sudah siang dan harus sudah ditutup serta dipasang palangnya sebelum para penjaga lepas tugas sore hari. Selain itu harus ditunjuk piket penjagaan dari antara penduduk Yerusalem, sebagian untuk pos-pos penjagaan dan sebagian lagi untuk berpatroli di daerah sekeliling rumah mereka."
4 Now the city was large and spacious, but there were few people in it, and the houses had not yet been rebuilt.
Yerusalem kota yang luas tetapi hanya sedikit penduduknya, dan belum banyak rumah yang dibangun.
5 Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the people to be enrolled by genealogy. I found the genealogical register of those who had first returned, and I found the following written in it:
Sebab itu Allah mengilhami aku untuk mengumpulkan rakyat dan para pemimpin serta pemukanya, supaya aku dapat menghitung mereka berdasarkan daftar silsilah mereka. Pada kesempatan itu telah kutemukan catatan tentang orang-orang yang pertama-tama kembali dari pembuangan. Berikut ini adalah keterangan yang kuperoleh dari catatan itu:
6 These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,
Banyak di antara orang-orang buangan meninggalkan provinsi Babel dan kembali ke Yerusalem dan Yehuda, masing-masing ke kotanya sendiri. Mereka telah lama hidup dalam pembuangan di Babel, sejak mereka diangkut ke sana sebagai tawanan oleh Raja Nebukadnezar.
7 accompanied by Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, and Baanah. This is the count of the men of Israel:

61 The following came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer, but could not prove that their families were descended from Israel:
Di antara orang-orang yang berangkat dari kota-kota Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Adon dan Imer, ada 642 orang yang termasuk kaum Delaya, Tobia dan Nekoda; tetapi mereka tidak dapat membuktikan bahwa mereka keturunan bangsa Israel.
62 the descendants of Delaiah, the descendants of Tobiah, and the descendants of Nekoda, 642 in all.
63 And from among the priests: the descendants of Hobaiah, the descendants of Hakkoz, and the descendants of Barzillai (who had married a daughter of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called by their name).
Juga ada beberapa keluarga imam yang tidak dapat menemukan catatan mengenai leluhur mereka. Kaum-kaum itu adalah Habaya, Hakos dan Barzilai. (Seorang leluhur kaum imam Barziali kawin dengan wanita keturunan kaum Barzilai di Gilead dan kemudian ia memakai nama keluarga mertuanya.) Karena mereka tidak dapat membuktikan siapa leluhur mereka, maka mereka tidak diterima sebagai imam.
64 These men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
65 The governor ordered them not to eat the most holy things until there was a priest to consult the Urim and Thummim.
Gubernur daerah Yehuda melarang mereka makan makanan yang dipersembahkan kepada Allah, sampai ada seorang imam yang dapat minta petunjuk dengan memakai Urim dan Tumim.
66 The whole assembly numbered 42,360,
Orang-orang buangan yang pulang ke negerinya seluruhnya berjumlah 42.360 orang. Selain itu pulang juga para pembantu mereka sejumlah 7.337 orang dan penyanyi sejumlah 245 orang. Mereka juga membawa binatang-binatang mereka, yaitu: Kuda-736, Bagal-245, Unta-435, Keledai-6.720.
67 in addition to their 7,337 menservants and maidservants, as well as their 245 male and female singers.
68 They had 736 horses, 245 mules,
69 435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.
70 Some of the heads of the families contributed to the project. The governor gave to the treasury 1,000 darics of gold, 50 bowls, and 530 priestly garments.
Banyak di antara rakyat memberi sumbangan untuk meringankan biaya perbaikan Rumah TUHAN: dari gubernur: 8 kilogram emas, 50 mangkuk upacara, 530 jubah imam; dari para kepala kaum: 168 kilogram emas, 1.250 kilogram perak; dari orang-orang lain: 168 kilogram emas, 140 kilogram perak, 67 jubah imam.
71 And some of the heads of the families gave to the treasury for the project 20,000 darics of gold and 2,200 minas of silver.
72 The rest of the people gave a total of 20,000 darics of gold, 2,000 minas of silver, and 67 priestly garments.
73 So the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and temple servants, along with some of the people and the rest of the Israelites, settled in their own towns. And by the seventh month the Israelites had settled in their towns.
Para imam, orang-orang Lewi, para penjaga gerbang Rumah TUHAN, para penyanyi, banyak dari rakyat biasa, para pekerja di Rumah TUHAN, pendek kata seluruh rakyat Israel, menetap di kota-kota dan desa-desa di Yehuda.
