As for the Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, there were recorded the heads of ancestral houses; also the priests, in the reign of Daryavesh the Persian.
23 υἱοὶ Λευι ἄρχοντες τῶν πατριῶν γεγραμμένοι ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν καὶ ἕως ἡμερῶν Ιωαναν υἱοῦ Ελισουβ
The sons of Levi, heads of ancestral houses, were written in the scroll of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.
24 καὶ ἄρχοντες τῶν Λευιτῶν Ασαβια καὶ Σαραβια καὶ Ιησου καὶ υἱοὶ Καδμιηλ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν κατεναντίον αὐτῶν εἰς ὑμνεῖν καὶ αἰνεῖν ἐν ἐντολῇ Δαυιδ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ θεοῦ ἐφημερία πρὸς ἐφημερίαν
The chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers over against them, to praise and give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, watch next to watch.

Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were gatekeepers keeping the watch at the storehouses of the gates.
26 ἐν ἡμέραις Ιωακιμ υἱοῦ Ἰησοῦ υἱοῦ Ιωσεδεκ καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις Νεεμια καὶ Εσδρας ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ γραμματεύς
These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest the scribe.
27 καὶ ἐν ἐγκαινίοις τείχους Ιερουσαλημ ἐζήτησαν τοὺς Λευίτας ἐν τοῖς τόποις αὐτῶν τοῦ ἐνέγκαι αὐτοὺς εἰς Ιερουσαλημ ποιῆσαι ἐγκαίνια καὶ εὐφροσύνην ἐν θωδαθα καὶ ἐν ᾠδαῖς κυμβαλίζοντες καὶ ψαλτήρια καὶ κινύραι
At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with giving thanks, and with singing, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and with harps.
28 καὶ συνήχθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ᾀδόντων καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς περιχώρου κυκλόθεν εἰς Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἀπὸ ἐπαύλεων
The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain around Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites;
29 καὶ ἀπὸ ἀγρῶν ὅτι ἐπαύλεις ᾠκοδόμησαν ἑαυτοῖς οἱ ᾄδοντες ἐν Ιερουσαλημ
also from Beth Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had built them villages around Jerusalem.
30 καὶ ἐκαθαρίσθησαν οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευῖται καὶ ἐκαθάρισαν τὸν λαὸν καὶ τοὺς πυλωροὺς καὶ τὸ τεῖχος
The priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
31 καὶ ἀνήνεγκα τοὺς ἄρχοντας Ιουδα ἐπάνω τοῦ τείχους καὶ ἔστησα δύο περὶ αἰνέσεως μεγάλους καὶ διῆλθον ἐκ δεξιῶν ἐπάνω τοῦ τείχους τῆς κοπρίας
Then I brought up the leaders of Judah onto the wall, and appointed two great companies who gave thanks and went in procession. One went on the right hand on the wall toward the Dung Gate;
32 καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω αὐτῶν Ωσαια καὶ ἥμισυ ἀρχόντων Ιουδα
and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the leaders of Judah,
33 καὶ Αζαριας Εσδρας καὶ Μεσουλαμ
and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
34 Ιουδα καὶ Βενιαμιν καὶ Σαμαια καὶ Ιερμια
Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
35 καὶ ἀπὸ υἱῶν τῶν ἱερέων ἐν σάλπιγξιν Ζαχαριας υἱὸς Ιωναθαν υἱὸς Σαμαια υἱὸς Μαθανια υἱὸς Μιχαια υἱὸς Ζακχουρ υἱὸς Ασαφ
and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zakkur, the son of Asaph;
36 καὶ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ Σαμαια καὶ Οζιηλ αἰνεῖν ἐν ᾠδαῖς Δαυιδ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ Εσδρας ὁ γραμματεὺς ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν
and his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them.
37 ἐπὶ πύλης τοῦ αιν κατέναντι αὐτῶν ἀνέβησαν ἐπὶ κλίμακας πόλεως Δαυιδ ἐν ἀναβάσει τοῦ τείχους ἐπάνωθεν τοῦ οἴκου Δαυιδ καὶ ἕως πύλης τοῦ ὕδατος κατὰ ἀνατολάς
By the Fountain Gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the City of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the Water Gate eastward.
38 καὶ περὶ αἰνέσεως ἡ δευτέρα ἐπορεύετο συναντῶσα αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐγὼ ὀπίσω αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ τοῦ λαοῦ ἐπάνω τοῦ τείχους ὑπεράνω τοῦ πύργου τῶν θεννουριμ καὶ ἕως τοῦ τείχους τοῦ πλατέος
The other company of those who gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people, on the wall, above the Tower of the Ovens, to the Broad Wall,
39 καὶ ὑπεράνω τῆς πύλης Εφραιμ καὶ ἐπὶ πύλην τῆς ισανα καὶ ἐπὶ πύλην τὴν ἰχθυηρὰν καὶ πύργῳ Ανανεηλ καὶ ἕως πύλης τῆς προβατικῆς καὶ ἔστησαν ἐν πύλῃ τῆς φυλακῆς
and above the Ephraim Gate, and by the Jeshanah Gate, and by the Fish Gate, and the Tower of Hananel, and the Tower of the Hundred, and as far as the Sheep Gate. And they stood still in the Gate of the Guard.
40 καὶ ἔστησαν αἱ δύο τῆς αἰνέσεως ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐγὼ καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ τῶν στρατηγῶν μετ’ ἐμοῦ
So stood the two companies of those who gave thanks in God's house, and I, and the half of the rulers with me;
41 καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς Ελιακιμ Μαασιας Βενιαμιν Μιχαιας Ελιωηναι Ζαχαριας Ανανιας ἐν σάλπιγξιν
and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;
42 καὶ Μαασιας καὶ Σεμειας καὶ Ελεαζαρ καὶ Οζι καὶ Ιωαναν καὶ Μελχιας καὶ Αιλαμ καὶ Εζουρ καὶ ἠκούσθησαν οἱ ᾄδοντες καὶ ἐπεσκέπησαν
and Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. The singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.
43 καὶ ἔθυσαν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ θυσιάσματα μεγάλα καὶ ηὐφράνθησαν ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ηὔφρανεν αὐτοὺς μεγάλως καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν ηὐφράνθησαν καὶ ἠκούσθη ἡ εὐφροσύνη ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν
They offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced; for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.
44 καὶ κατέστησαν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἄνδρας ἐπὶ τῶν γαζοφυλακίων τοῖς θησαυροῖς ταῖς ἀπαρχαῖς καὶ ταῖς δεκάταις καὶ τοῖς συνηγμένοις ἐν αὐτοῖς ἄρχουσιν τῶν πόλεων μερίδας τοῖς ἱερεῦσι καὶ τοῖς Λευίταις ὅτι εὐφροσύνη ἦν ἐν Ιουδα ἐπὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς Λευίτας τοὺς ἑστῶτας
On that day men were appointed over the storerooms, for the contributions, the first fruits, and the tithes, to gather into them from the fields of the cities the portions appointed by the law for the priests and Levites, for Judah rejoiced over the priests and the Levites who ministered.
45 καὶ ἐφύλαξαν φυλακὰς θεοῦ αὐτῶν καὶ φυλακὰς τοῦ καθαρισμοῦ καὶ τοὺς ᾄδοντας καὶ τοὺς πυλωροὺς ὡς ἐντολαὶ Δαυιδ καὶ Σαλωμων υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ
They performed the duty of their God, and the duty of the purification, and so did the singers and the gatekeepers, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.
46 ὅτι ἐν ἡμέραις Δαυιδ Ασαφ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς πρῶτος τῶν ᾀδόντων καὶ ὕμνον καὶ αἴνεσιν τῷ θεῷ
For long ago in the days of David and Asaph there were directors of the singers and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.
47 καὶ πᾶς Ισραηλ ἐν ἡμέραις Ζοροβαβελ διδόντες μερίδας τῶν ᾀδόντων καὶ τῶν πυλωρῶν λόγον ἡμέρας ἐν ἡμέρᾳ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἁγιάζοντες τοῖς Λευίταις καὶ οἱ Λευῖται ἁγιάζοντες τοῖς υἱοῖς Ααρων
All Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the gatekeepers, as every day required: and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.
