Nehemiah 7
1 Nowe when the wall was builded, and I had set vp the doores, and the porters, and the singers and the Leuites 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 commanded my brother Hanani and Hananiah the prince of the palace in Ierusalem (for he was doubtlesse a faithfull man, and feared God aboue many)
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 saide vnto them, Let not the gates of Ierusalem be opened, vntill the heate of the sunne: and while they stande by, let them shut the doores, and make them fast: and I appointed wardes of the inhabitants of Ierusalem, euery one in his warde, and euery one ouer against his house.
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 Nowe the citie was large and great, but the people were few therein, and the houses were not buylded.
Yerusalem kota yang luas tetapi hanya sedikit penduduknya, dan belum banyak rumah yang dibangun.
5 And my God put into mine heart, and I gathered the princes, and the rulers, and the people, to count their genealogies: and I found a booke of the genealogie of them, which came vp at the first, and found written therein,
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:
