| 1 | NOW WHEN THE WALL HAD BEEN REBUILT, and I had set the doors in place and the gate-keepers had been appointed, | וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר נִבְנְתָה הַחֹומָה וָאַעֲמִיד הַדְּלָתֹות וַיִּפָּקְדוּ הַשֹּׁועֲרִים וְהַמְשֹׁרְרִים וְהַלְוִיִּם׃ | ||
| 2 | I gave the charge of Jerusalem to my brother Hanani, and to Hananiah, the governor of the citadel, for he was trustworthy and God-fearing above other men. | וָאֲצַוֶּה אֶת־חֲנָנִי אָחִי וְאֶת־חֲנַנְיָה שַׂר הַבִּירָה עַל־יְרוּשָׁלִָם כִּי־הוּא כְּאִישׁ אֱמֶת וְיָרֵא אֶת־הָאֱלֹהִים מֵרַבִּים׃ | ||
| 3 | And I said to them, 'The entrances to Jerusalem are not to be left open during the heat of the day; the gates must be kept shut and barred while the gate-keepers are standing at ease. Appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, some on sentry-duty and others posted in front of their own homes.' | [כ= וַיֹּאמֶר] [ק= וָאֹמַר] לָהֶם לֹא יִפָּתְחוּ שַׁעֲרֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם עַד־חֹם הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ וְעַד הֵם עֹמְדִים יָגִיפוּ הַדְּלָתֹות וֶאֱחֹזוּ וְהַעֲמֵיד מִשְׁמְרֹות יֹשְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם אִישׁ בְּמִשְׁמָרֹו וְאִישׁ נֶגֶד בֵּיתֹו׃ | ||
| 4 | The city was large and spacious; there were few people in it and no houses had yet been rebuilt. | וְהָעִיר רַחֲבַת יָדַיִם וּגְדֹולָה וְהָעָם מְעַט בְּתֹוכָהּ וְאֵין בָּתִּים בְּנוּיִם׃ | ||
| 5 | Then God prompted me to assemble the nobles, the magistrates, and the people, to be enrolled family by family. And I found the book of the genealogies of those who had been the first to come back. This is what I found written in it: | Census - Those who returned from exile. Ne.7.5-73 | Ez.2.1-70 | וַיִּתֵּן אֱלֹהַי אֶל־לִבִּי וָאֶקְבְּצָה אֶת־הַחֹרִים וְאֶת־הַסְּגָנִים וְאֶת־הָעָם לְהִתְיַחֵשׂ וָאֶמְצָא סֵפֶר הַיַּחַשׂ הָעֹולִים בָּרִאשֹׁונָה וָאֶמְצָא כָּתוּב בֹּו׃ ף | |
| 6 | Of the captives whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had taken into exile, these are the people of the province who have returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town, | אֵלֶּה בְּנֵי הַמְּדִינָה הָעֹלִים מִשְּׁבִי הַגֹּולָה אֲשֶׁר הֶגְלָה נְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וַיָּשׁוּבוּ לִירוּשָׁלִַם וְלִיהוּדָה אִישׁ לְעִירֹו׃ | ||

| 71 | Some of the heads of families gave for the fabric fund twenty thousand drachmas of gold and two thousand two hundred minas of silver. | וַאֲשֶׁר נָתְנוּ שְׁאֵרִית הָעָם זָהָב דַּרְכְּמֹונִים שְׁתֵּי רִבֹּוא וְכֶסֶף מָנִים אַלְפָּיִם וְכָתְנֹת כֹּהֲנִים שִׁשִּׁים וְשִׁבְעָה׃ ף | ||
| 72 | What the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand drachmas of gold, two thousand minas of silver, and sixty-seven priestly robes. | וַיֵּשְׁבוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם וְהַשֹּׁועֲרִים וְהַמְשֹׁרְרִים וּמִן־הָעָם וְהַנְּתִינִים וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעָרֵיהֶם וַיִּגַּע הַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי וּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעָרֵיהֶם׃ | ||
| 73 | The priests, the Levites, and some of the people lived in Jerusalem and its suburbs ; the door-keepers, the singers, the temple-servitors, and all other Israelites, lived in their own towns. | |||
