002:048 the children of Rezin, the children of Nekoda, the children of Gazzam,
002:049 the children of Uzza, the children of Paseah, the children of Besai,
002:050 the children of Asnah, the children of Meunim,
the children of Nephisim,
002:051 the children of Bakbuk, the children of Hakupha,
the children of Harhur,
002:052 the children of Bazluth, the children of Mehida,
the children of Harsha,
002:053 the children of Barkos, the children of Sisera, the children of Temah,
002:054 the children of Neziah, the children of Hatipha.
002:055 The children of Solomon's servants: the children of Sotai,
the children of Hassophereth, the children of Peruda,
002:056 the children of Jaalah, the children of Darkon,
the children of Giddel,
002:057 the children of Shephatiah, the children of Hattil, the children
of Pochereth Hazzebaim, the children of Ami.
002:058 All the Nethinim, and the children of Solomon's servants,
were three hundred ninety-two.
002:059 These were those who went up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha,
Cherub, Addan, [and] Immer; but they could not show their fathers'
houses, and their seed, whether they were of Israel:
002:060 the children of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the children
of Nekoda, six hundred fifty-two.
002:061 Of the children of the priests: the children of Habaiah,
the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai,
who took a wife of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite,
and was called after their name.
002:062 These sought their register [among] those who were reckoned
by genealogy, but they were not found: therefore were they
deemed polluted and put from the priesthood.
002:063 The governor said to them, that they should not eat of the
most holy things, until there stood up a priest with Urim
and with Thummim.
002:064 The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand
three hundred sixty,
002:065 besides their male servants and their female servants,
of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven:
and they had two hundred singing men and singing women.
002:066 Their horses were seven hundred thirty-six; their mules,
two hundred forty-five;
002:067 their camels, four hundred thirty-five; [their] donkeys,
six thousand seven hundred and twenty.
002:068 Some of the heads of fathers' [houses], when they came to
the house of Yahweh which is in Jerusalem, offered willingly
for the house of God to set it up in its place:
002:069 they gave after their ability into the treasury of the work
sixty-one thousand darics of gold, and five thousand minas
of silver, and one hundred priests' garments.
002:070 So the priests, and the Levites, and some of the people,
and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinim,
lived in their cities, and all Israel in their cities.
