Nehemiah 7
1 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí a tún odi mọ tán tí mo sì ri àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn sí ààyè wọn, a sì yan àwọn aṣọ́bodè, àwọn akọrin àti àwọn Lefi.
When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
2 Mo fún Hanani arákùnrin mi pẹ̀lú Hananiah olórí ilé ìṣọ́ ní àṣẹ lórí Jerusalẹmu, nítorí tí ó jẹ́ ènìyàn olóòtítọ́, ó sì bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run jù bí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn ti ṣe lọ.
Then I put my brother Hanani in charge of Jerusalem, along with Hananiah the commander of the fortress, because he was a faithful man who feared God more than most.
3 Mo sọ fún wọn pé, “A kò gbọdọ̀ ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn Jerusalẹmu títí oòrùn yóò fi mú. Nígbà tí àwọn aṣọ́bodè bá sì wà lẹ́nu iṣẹ́, jẹ́ kí wọn ti ìlẹ̀kùn kí wọn sì há wọn. Bákan náà, yàn nínú àwọn tí ń gbé Jerusalẹmu gẹ́gẹ́ bí olùṣọ́. Àwọn mìíràn níbi tí a pín wọn sí àti àwọn mìíràn ní tòsí ilé e wọn.”
And I told them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the guards are on duty, keep the doors shut and securely fastened. And appoint the residents of Jerusalem as guards, some at their posts and some at their own homes.”
4 Ìlú náà tóbi ó sì ní ààyè, ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn inú rẹ̀ kéré, a kò sì tí ì tún àwọn ilé inú rẹ̀ kọ́.
Now the city was large and spacious, but there were few people in it, and the houses had not yet been rebuilt.
5 Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run mi fi sí mi ní ọkàn láti kó àwọn ọlọ́lá, àwọn ìjòyè, àti àwọn ènìyàn jọ fún ìforúkọsílẹ̀ ní ìdílé ìdílé. Mo rí ìwé àkọsílẹ̀ ìtàn ìran àwọn tí ó kọ́ gòkè padà wá láti ìgbèkùn. Èyí ni ohun tí mo rí tí a kọ sínú ìwé náà.
Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the people to be enrolled by genealogy. I found the genealogical register of those who had first returned, and I found the following written in it:
6 Èyí ni àwọn ènìyàn agbègbè náà tí wọ́n sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá láti ìgbèkùn, àwọn tí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ti kó ní ìgbèkùn (wọ́n padà sí Jerusalẹmu àti Juda, olúkúlùkù sí ìlú u rẹ̀.
These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,

These men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.

Some of the heads of the families contributed to the project. The governor gave to the treasury 1,000 darics of gold, 50 bowls, and 530 priestly garments.

So the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and temple servants, along with some of the people and the rest of the Israelites, settled in their own towns. And by the seventh month the Israelites had settled in their towns.
