Nehemya 7
1 Surların onarımı bitip kapılar yerine takıldıktan sonra, kapı nöbetçileri, ezgiciler ve Levililer göreve atandı.
Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 Kardeşim Hanani'yle kale komutanı Hananya'yı Yeruşalim'e yönetici atadım. Hananya güvenilir bir kişiydi. Çoğu insandan daha çok Tanrı'dan korkardı.
I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man and feared God above many.
3 Onlara, “Güneş ortalığı ısıtıncaya kadar Yeruşalim kapıları açılmasın” dedim, “Kapı nöbetçileri görev başındayken kapıları kapalı tutsunlar. Kapıları siz sürgüleyin ve Yeruşalim'de oturanlara nöbet görevi verin. Bazıları bu görevi yapsın, bazıları da evlerinin çevresinde nöbet tutsun.”
I said to them, “Don’t let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them; and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house.”
4 Yeruşalim geniş, büyük bir kentti, ama nüfusu azdı. İçindeki evler henüz onarılmamıştı.
Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
5 Tanrım soylarına göre halkın sayımı yapılabilsin diye soyluları, yetkilileri ve bütün halkı toplamamı istedi. Sürgünden ilk dönenlerin soy kütüğünü buldum. İçinde şunlar yazılıydı:
My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be listed by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found this written in it:

These are the children of the province who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city,
