And, the second choir, was going over against them, I, following it, —with the half of the people upon the wall, above the tower of the ovens, even as far as the broad wall;

and above the gate of Ephraim, and upon the old gate, and upon the fish-gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even as far as the sheep-gate, —and they came to a stand, at the gate of the guard.

40 Então ambos os coros pararam na casa de Deus; como também eu, e a metade dos magistrados comigo.

So the two choirs, came to a stand, at the house of God, —and I, and half the deputies with me;

41 E os sacerdotes Eliakim, Maaseias, Miniamin, Michaias, Elioenai, Zacarias, e Hananias, com trombetas,

and, the priests—Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;

and Maaseiah and Shemaiah and Eleazar and Uzzi and Jehohanan and Malchijah and Elam and Ezer, —and the musicians sounded, aloud with Jezrahiah who was over them.

43 E sacrificaram no mesmo dia grandes sacrifícios, e se alegraram; porque Deus os alegrara com grande alegria; e até as mulheres e os meninos se alegraram, que a alegria de Jerusalém se ouviu até de longe.

And they sacrificed, on that day, great sacrifices, and rejoiced, for, God, had caused them to rejoice with great joy, moreover also, the women and children, rejoiced, —so that the rejoicing of Jerusalem was heard afar off.

44 Também no mesmo dia se nomearam homens sobre as câmaras, para os tesouros, para as ofertas alçadas, para as primícias, e para os dízimos, para ajuntarem nelas, das terras das cidades, as partes da lei para os sacerdotes e para os levitas; porque Judá estava alegre por causa dos sacerdotes e dos levitas que assistiam ali.

And there were set in charge, on that day, certain men, over the chambers for the treasures, for the heave-offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, out of the fields of the cities, the portions appointed by the law, for the priests, and for the Levites, —for, the joy of Judah, was over the priests and over the Levites, who were remaining.

45 E faziam a guarda do seu Deus, e a guarda da purificação; como também os cantores e porteiros, conforme ao mandado de David e de seu filho Salomão.

So they kept the charge of their God, and the charge of the purification, and [so did] the singers and the doorkeepers, —according to the commandment of David and of Solomon his son.

46 Porque já nos dias de David e Asaph, desde a antiguidade, havia cabeças dos cantores, e dos cânticos de louvores, e de ação de graças a Deus

For, in the days of David and Asaph, of old, there were chiefs of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving, unto 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 santificavam as porções aos levitas, e os levitas santificavam aos filhos de Aarão.

Now, all Israel—in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, used to give the portions of the singers and the doorkeepers, the need of a day upon its day, —and they hallowed them unto the Levites, and, the Levites, hallowed them unto the sons of Aaron.
