1 And the rulers of the people dwelt in Jerusalem, —and, the rest of the people, cast lots, to bring in one out of ten to dwell in Jerusalem, the holy city, and nine parts in [other] cities.

2 And the people bestowed a blessing on all the men, who willingly offered themselves to dwell in Jerusalem.

Ndị mmadụ toro ndị niile jiri afọ ofufu họrọ ịbịa soro biri na Jerusalem.

3 Now, these, are the chiefs of the province, who dwelt in Jerusalem, but, in the cities of Judah, dwelt every man in his possession throughout their cities, Israel, the priests, and the Levites and the Nethinim, and the Sons of the Servants of Solomon.
