Nehemiah 7
1 Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
Setelah tembok itu selesai dibangun, aku menyuruh supaya daun-daun pintunya dipasang. Lalu penjaga-penjaga pintu gerbang, para penyanyi dan orang-orang Lewi kusuruh melakukan tugasnya masing-masing.
2 I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man and feared God above many.
Pemerintahan kota Yerusalem kuserahkan kepada saudaraku Hanani dan kepada Hananya, panglima benteng, karena dia lebih daripada orang lain, takut kepada Allah dan dapat dipercaya.
3 I said to them, “Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them; and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house.”
Kukatakan kepada mereka, "Pintu gerbang Yerusalem baru boleh dibuka kalau hari sudah siang dan harus sudah ditutup serta dipasang palangnya sebelum para penjaga lepas tugas sore hari. Selain itu harus ditunjuk piket penjagaan dari antara penduduk Yerusalem, sebagian untuk pos-pos penjagaan dan sebagian lagi untuk berpatroli di daerah sekeliling rumah mereka."
4 Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
Yerusalem kota yang luas tetapi hanya sedikit penduduknya, dan belum banyak rumah yang dibangun.
5 My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be listed by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found this written in it:
Sebab itu Allah mengilhami aku untuk mengumpulkan rakyat dan para pemimpin serta pemukanya, supaya aku dapat menghitung mereka berdasarkan daftar silsilah mereka. Pada kesempatan itu telah kutemukan catatan tentang orang-orang yang pertama-tama kembali dari pembuangan. Berikut ini adalah keterangan yang kuperoleh dari catatan itu:
6 These are the children of the province who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city,
Banyak di antara orang-orang buangan meninggalkan provinsi Babel dan kembali ke Yerusalem dan Yehuda, masing-masing ke kotanya sendiri. Mereka telah lama hidup dalam pembuangan di Babel, sejak mereka diangkut ke sana sebagai tawanan oleh Raja Nebukadnezar.

61 These were those who went up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but they could not show their fathers’ houses, nor their offspring, whether they were of Israel:
Di antara orang-orang yang berangkat dari kota-kota Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Adon dan Imer, ada 642 orang yang termasuk kaum Delaya, Tobia dan Nekoda; tetapi mereka tidak dapat membuktikan bahwa mereka keturunan bangsa Israel.

63 Of the priests: the children of Hobaiah, 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.
Juga ada beberapa keluarga imam yang tidak dapat menemukan catatan mengenai leluhur mereka. Kaum-kaum itu adalah Habaya, Hakos dan Barzilai. (Seorang leluhur kaum imam Barziali kawin dengan wanita keturunan kaum Barzilai di Gilead dan kemudian ia memakai nama keluarga mertuanya.) Karena mereka tidak dapat membuktikan siapa leluhur mereka, maka mereka tidak diterima sebagai imam.
64 These searched for their genealogical records, but could not find them. Therefore they were deemed disqualified and removed from the priesthood.
65 The governor told them not to eat of the most holy things until a priest stood up to minister with Urim and Thummim.
Gubernur daerah Yehuda melarang mereka makan makanan yang dipersembahkan kepada Allah, sampai ada seorang imam yang dapat minta petunjuk dengan memakai Urim dan Tumim.
66 The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand three hundred sixty,
Orang-orang buangan yang pulang ke negerinya seluruhnya berjumlah 42.360 orang. Selain itu pulang juga para pembantu mereka sejumlah 7.337 orang dan penyanyi sejumlah 245 orang. Mereka juga membawa binatang-binatang mereka, yaitu: Kuda-736, Bagal-245, Unta-435, Keledai-6.720.
67 in addition to their male servants and their female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven. They had two hundred forty-five singing men and singing women.
68 Their horses were seven hundred thirty-six; their mules, two hundred forty-five;
69 their camels, four hundred thirty-five; their donkeys, six thousand seven hundred twenty.
70 Some from among the heads of fathers’ households gave to the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand darics of gold, fifty basins, and five hundred thirty priests’ garments.
Banyak di antara rakyat memberi sumbangan untuk meringankan biaya perbaikan Rumah TUHAN: dari gubernur: 8 kilogram emas, 50 mangkuk upacara, 530 jubah imam; dari para kepala kaum: 168 kilogram emas, 1.250 kilogram perak; dari orang-orang lain: 168 kilogram emas, 140 kilogram perak, 67 jubah imam.
