< Nehemia 7 >
1 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.
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].
2 Pemerintahan kota Yerusalem kuserahkan kepada saudaraku Hanani dan kepada Hananya, panglima benteng, karena dia lebih daripada orang lain, takut kepada Allah dan dapat dipercaya.
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.
3 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."
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.
4 Yerusalem kota yang luas tetapi hanya sedikit penduduknya, dan belum banyak rumah yang dibangun.
But the city was roomy in space and large: while the people therein were few, and the houses were not yet built.
5 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:
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:
6 Banyak di antara orang-orang buangan meninggalkan provinsi Babel dan kembali ke Yerusalem dan Yehuda, masing-masing ke kotanya sendiri. Mereka telah lama hidup dalam pembuangan di Babel, sejak mereka diangkut ke sana sebagai tawanan oleh Raja Nebukadnezar.
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;
