And before
H475
this, Eliashib
H3548
the priest
H5414
, having the oversight
[H8803]
H3957
of the chamber
H1004
of the house
H430
of our God
H7138
, was allied
H2900
unto Tobiah:
5
H6213
And he had prepared
[H8799]
H1419
for him a great
H3957
chamber
H6440
, where aforetime
H5414
they laid
[H8802]
H4503
the meat offerings
H3828
, the frankincense
H3627
, and the vessels
H4643
, and the tithes
H1715
of the corn
H8492
, the new wine
H3323
, and the oil
H4687
, which was commanded
H3881
to be given to the Levites
H7891
, and the singers
[H8789]
H7778
, and the porters
H8641
; and the offerings
H3548
of the priests.
6
H3389
But in all this time was not I at Jerusalem
H8147
: for in the two
H7970
and thirtieth
H8141
year
H783
of Artaxerxes
H4428
king
H894
of Babylon
H935
came
[H8804]
H4428
I unto the king
H7093
, and after
H3117
certain days
H7592
obtained I leave
[H8738]
H4428
of the king:
7
H935
And I came
[H8799]
H3389
to Jerusalem
H995
, and understood
[H8799]
H7451
of the evil
H475
that Eliashib
H6213
did
[H8804]
H2900
for Tobiah
H6213
, in preparing
[H8800]
H5393
him a chamber
H2691
in the courts
H1004
of the house
H430
of God.
8
H3415
And it grieved
[H8799]
H3966
me sore
H7993
: therefore I cast forth
[H8686]
H1004
all the household
H3627
stuff
H2900
of Tobiah
H2351
out of
H3957
the chamber.
9
H559
Then I commanded
[H8799]
H2891
, and they cleansed
[H8762]
H3957
the chambers
H7725
: and thither brought I again
[H8686]
H3627
the vessels
H1004
of the house
H430
of God
H4503
, with the meat offering
H3828
and the frankincense.
10
H3045
And I perceived
[H8799]
H4521
that the portions
H3881
of the Levites
H5414
had not been given
[H8738]
H3881
them : for the Levites
H7891
and the singers
[H8789]
H6213
, that did
[H8802]
H4399
the work
H1272
, were fled
[H8799]
H376
every one
H7704
to his field.
11
H7378
Then contended
[H8799]
H5461
I with the rulers
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H1004
, Why is the house
H430
of God
H5800
forsaken
[H8738]
H6908
? And I gathered them together
[H8762]
H5975
, and set
[H8686]
H5977
them in their place.
12
H935
Then brought
[H8689]
H3063
all Judah
H4643
the tithe
H1715
of the corn
H8492
and the new wine
H3323
and the oil
H214
unto the treasuries.
13
H686
And I made treasurers
[H8799]
H214
over the treasuries
H8018
, Shelemiah
H3548
the priest
H6659
, and Zadok
H5608
the scribe
[H8802]
H3881
, and of the Levites
H6305
, Pedaiah
H3027
: and next to them
H2605
was Hanan
H1121
the son
H2139
of Zaccur
H1121
, the son
H4983
of Mattaniah
H2803
: for they were counted
[H8738]
H539
faithful
[H8737]
H2505
, and their office was to distribute
[H8800]
H251
unto their brethren.
