Nehemiæ 7
1 Postquam autem ædificatus est murus, et posui valvas, et recensui ianitores, et cantores, et Levitas:
And it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, —and the doorkeepers and the singers and the Levites had been appointed,
2 præcepi Hanani fratri meo, et Hananiæ principi domus de Ierusalem (ipse enim quasi vir verax et timens Deum plus ceteris videbatur)
that I gave Hanani my brother, and Hananiah captain of the castle, charge over Jerusalem, for, he, was a truly faithful man, and revered God above many.
3 et dixi eis: Non aperiantur portæ Ierusalem usque ad calorem solis. Cumque adhuc assisterent, clausæ portæ sunt, et oppilatæ: et posui custodes de habitatoribus Ierusalem, singulos per vices suas, et unumquemque contra domum suam.
And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until, hot, be the sun, and, while they are standing by, let them close the doors, and make them fast, —setting watches, of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one over against his own house.
4 Civitas autem erat lata nimis et grandis, et populus parvus in medio eius, et non erant domus ædificatæ.
Now, the city, was broad on both hands, and large, but, the people, were few in the midst thereof, —and the houses had not been built.
5 Deus autem dedit in corde meo, et congregavi optimates, et magistratus, et vulgus, ut recenserem eos: et inveni librum census eorum, qui ascenderant primum, et inventum est scriptum in eo.
So then my God put it into my heart, and I gathered together the nobles and the deputies and the people, to register their genealogy, —then found I a register roll, of them who came up at the first, and found written therein: —
6 Isti filii provinciæ, qui ascenderunt de captivitate migrantium, quos transtulerat Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, et reversi sunt in Ierusalem, et in Iudæam, unusquisque in civitatem suam.
These, are the sons of the province, who came up from among the Captives of the Exile, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did exile, —but they came back to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one to his own city;
7 Qui venerunt cum Zorobabel, Iosue, Nehemias, Azarias, Raamias, Nahamani, Mardochæus, Belsam, Mespharath, Begoai, Nahum, Baana. Numerus virorum populi Israel:
