< 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,
Surların onarımı bitip kapılar yerine takıldıktan sonra, kapı nöbetçileri, ezgiciler ve Levililer göreve atandı.
2 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.
Kardeşim Hanani'yle kale komutanı Hananya'yı Yeruşalim'e yönetici atadım. Hananya güvenilir bir kişiydi. Çoğu insandan daha çok Tanrı'dan korkardı.
3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun 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 opposite to his house.
Onlara, “Güneş ortalığı ısıtıncaya kadar Yeruşalim kapıları açılmasın” dedim, “Kapı nöbetçileri görev başındayken kapıları kapalı tutsunlar. Kapıları siz sürgüleyin ve Yeruşalim'de oturanlara nöbet görevi verin. Bazıları bu görevi yapsın, bazıları da evlerinin çevresinde nöbet tutsun.”
4 Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
Yeruşalim geniş, büyük bir kentti, ama nüfusu azdı. İçindeki evler henüz onarılmamıştı.
5 And my God put into mine heart to gather together 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 which came up at the first, and found written therein,
Tanrım soylarına göre halkın sayımı yapılabilsin diye soyluları, yetkilileri ve bütün halkı toplamamı istedi. Sürgünden ilk dönenlerin soy kütüğünü buldum. İçinde şunlar yazılıydı:
6 These are the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;
Babil Kralı Nebukadnessar'ın sürgün ettiği insanlar yaşadıkları ilden Yeruşalim ve Yahuda'daki kendi kentlerine döndü.

64 These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.
Bunlar soy kütüklerini aradılar. Ama yazılı bir kayıt bulamayınca, kâhinlik görevi ellerinden alındı.
65 And the Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
