Once the priests and the Levites had purified themselves, they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.

37 Indo assim para a porta da fonte, e defronte d'elles, subiram as escadas da cidade de David pela subida do muro, desde cima da casa de David, até á porta das aguas, da banda do oriente.
At the Fountain Gate they headed straight up by the stairs of the city of David, where the wall goes uphill, above the house of David, and on to the Water Gate on the east.

The other choir group went in the opposite direction. I followed them, along with half the people, on the wall passing the Tower of the Ovens, on to the Broad Wall,

Both thanksgiving choirs then took their places in God's Temple. I followed with the group of leaders that was with me,
41 E os sacerdotes Eliakim, Maaseias, Miniamin, Michaias, Elioenai, Zacharias, e Hananias, com trombetas,
along with the priests blowing their trumpets: Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah.
42 Como tambem, Maaseias, e Semaias, e Eleazar, e Uzzi, e Johanan, e Malchias, e Elam, e Ezer; e faziam-se ouvir os cantores, juntamente com Jezrahias, o superintendente.
Then came the singers Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer, and the choirs sang, directed by Jezrahiah.
43 E sacrificaram no mesmo dia grandes sacrificios, e se alegraram; porque Deus os alegrara com grande alegria; e até as mulheres e os meninos se alegraram, que a alegria de Jerusalem se ouviu até de longe.
Many sacrifices were offered that day, celebrating that God had brought them so much happiness, tremendous happiness. The women and children also celebrated, and the sounds of joy in Jerusalem could be heard far away.
44 Tambem no mesmo dia se nomearam homens sobre as camaras, para os thesouros, para as offertas alçadas, para as primicias, e para os dizimos, para ajuntarem n'ellas, das terras das cidades, as partes da lei para os sacerdotes e para os levitas; porque Judah estava alegre por causa dos sacerdotes e dos levitas que assistiam ali.
On the same day men were put in charge over the storerooms that contained the offerings, the first part of the crops, and tithes. What was allocated by the Law for the priests and Levites was brought into these storerooms from the fields around the towns, because all the people of Judah were happy for the service of the priests and Levites.
45 E faziam a guarda do seu Deus, e a guarda da purificação; como tambem os cantores e porteiros, conforme ao mandado de David e de seu filho Salomão.
They were responsible for the worship of their God and for the service of purification, along with the singers and gatekeepers, following the instructions of David and his son Solomon.
46 Porque já nos dias de David e Asaph, desde a antiguidade, havia cabeças dos cantores, e dos canticos de louvores, e d'acção de graças a Deus
For long ago, back in the time of David and Asaph, directors had been appointed for the singers and for the songs of praise and thanks to God.
47 Pelo que todo o Israel, já nos dias de Zorobabel, nos dias de Nehemias, dava as partes dos cantores e dos porteiros a cada um no seu dia; e sanctificavam as porções aos levitas, e os levitas sanctificavam aos filhos d'Aarão.
So in the time of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, everyone in Israel provided the daily food allowances for the singers and the gatekeepers. They also made sure to provide for the other Levites, and the Levites gave a share of this to the descendants of Aaron.
