Nehemiah 7
1 And it came to pass, when the wall was built, that I set up the doors; and then were appointed the gatekeepers and the singers and the [other] Levites [to their office].
Surların onarımı bitip kapılar yerine takıldıktan sonra, kapı nöbetçileri, ezgiciler ve Levililer göreve atandı.
2 And I gave my brother Chanani, and Chananyah the commander of the fortress, charge over Jerusalem; for he was esteemed a faithful man, and one that feared God these many days.
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, The gates of Jerusalem must not be opened until the sun be hot; and while ye stand by, let them shut the doors, and do ye bar them; and station watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one 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 But the city was roomy in space and large: while the people therein were few, and the houses were not yet built.
Yeruşalim geniş, büyük bir kentti, ama nüfusu azdı. İçindeki evler henüz onarılmamıştı.
5 Then did my God put it into my heart, and I assembled together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might give in their genealogy; and I found a register of the genealogy of those who were come up at the first, and I 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 arc the children of the province, that came up out of the captivity of the exiles, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried into exile, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his own city;
Babil Kralı Nebukadnessar'ın sürgün ettiği insanlar yaşadıkları ilden Yeruşalim ve Yahuda'daki kendi kentlerine döndü.

64 These sought for their family register, but it was not found: wherefore they were excluded, as unfit, from the priesthood.
Bunlar soy kütüklerini aradılar. Ama yazılı bir kayıt bulamayınca, kâhinlik görevi ellerinden alındı.
65 And the Thirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there should stand up a priest with the Urim and Thummim.
Vali, Urim ile Tummim'i kullanan bir kâhin çıkıncaya dek en kutsal yiyeceklerden yememelerini buyurdu.
66 The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and sixty:
Bütün halk toplam 42 360 kişiydi.
67 Besides these were their man-servants and their maid-servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven: and they had two hundred and forty and five singing men and singing women.
