Uthai, and Zabbud, and with them seventy males.H1121H902H5793H2072H2139H7657H214515And I gathered them together to the river that runneth to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.H6908H5104H935H163H2583H7969H3117H995H5971H3548H4672H1121H387816Then sent I for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, men of understanding.H7971H461H740H8098H494H3402H494H5416H2148H4918H7218H3114H494H99517And I sent them with commandment unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.H6680H3318H112H7218H4725H3703H7760H6310H1697H1696H112H251H5411H5411H4725H3703H935H8334H1004H43018And by the good hand of our God upon us they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;H2896H3027H430H935H376H7922H1121H4249H1121H3878H1121H3478H8274H1121H251H8083H624019And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;H2811H3470H1121H4847H251H1121H624220Also of the Nethinims, whom David and the princes had appointed for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinims: all of them were expressed by name.H5411H1732H8269H5414H5656H3881H3967H6242H5411H5344H803421Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.H7121H6685H5104H163H6031H6440H430H1245H3477H1870H2945H739922For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.H954H7592H4428H2428H6571H5826H341H1870H559H4428H559H3027H430H2896H1245H5797H639H580023So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was intreated of us.H6684H1245H430H627924Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,H914H8147H6240H8269H3548H8274H2811H6235H25125And weighed unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, even the offering of the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his lords, and all Israel there present, had offered:H8254H3701H2091H3627H8641H1004H430H4428H3289H8269H3478H4672H731126I even weighed unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels an hundred talents, and of gold an hundred talents;H8254H3027H8337H3967H2572H3603H3701H3701H3627H3967H3603H2091H3967H360327Also twenty basons of gold, of a thousand drams; and two vessels of fine copper, precious as gold.H6242H3713H2091H505H150H8147H3627H2896H6668H5178H2532H209128And I said unto them, Ye are holy unto the LORD; the vessels are holy also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the LORD God of your fathers.H559H6944H3068H3627H6944H3701H2091H5071H3068H430H129Watch ye, and keep them, until ye weigh them before the chief of the priests and the Levites, and chief of the fathers of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD.H8245H8104H8254H6440H8269H3548H3881H8269H1H3478H3389H3957H1004H306830So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.H6901H3548H3881H4948H3701H2091H3627H935H3389H1004H43031Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.H5265H5104H163H8147H6240H7223H2320H3212H3389H3027H430H5337H3709H341H693H187032And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.H935H3389H3427H7969H311733Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;H7243H3117H3701H2091H3627H8254H1004H430H3027H4822H1121H223H3548H499H1121H6372H3107H1121H3442H5129H1121H1131H388134By number and by weight of every one: and all the weight was written at that time.H4557H4948H4948H3789H625635Also the children of those that had been carried away, which were come out of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering unto the LORD.H1121H1473H935H7628H7126H5930H430H3478H8147H6240H6499H3478H8673H8337H352H7657H7651H3532H8147H6240H6842H2403H5930H306836And they delivered the king's commissions unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors on this side the river: and they furthered the people, and the house of God.H5414H4428H1881H4428H323H6346H5676H5104H5375H5971H1004H430
