11 It was the authorities of the nation who resided at Jerusalem. The rest of the people drew lots: one man in ten was to be sent to reside at Jerusalem, while the other nine stayed in the towns. 2 Some offered of their own will to reside at Jerusalem, and these were all praised by the people.
3 The following are the provincial chiefs who resided at Jerusalem; in the towns of Judah everyone stayed on his own property in the towns, laity, priests, Levites, temple-attendants, and the families of Solomon’s servants, 4 but some Judahites and Benjamites resided at Jerusalem. The Judahites were: Athaiah the son of Uzziah, the son of Zechariah, the son of Amariah, the son of Shephatiah, the son of Mahalalel, belonging to the sons of Pharez; 5 and Maaseiah the son of Baruch, the son of Col-hozeh, the son of Hazaiah, the son of Adaiah, the son of Joiarib, the son of Zechariah the Shilonite 6 (the sons of Pharez who resided at Jerusalem were four hundred and sixty-eight in all, able-bodied men). 7 The Benjamites were: Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Joed, the son of Pedaiah, the son of Kolaiah, the son of Maaseiah, the son of Ithiel, the son of Jeshaiah; 8 and after him Gabbai, Sallai . . . nine hundred and twenty-eight, 9 their overseer being Joel the son of Zichri (Judah the son of Hasenuah being over the second district of the city). 10 The priests were: Jedaiah, Joiarib, Jachin, 11 and Seraiah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the sou of Ahitub, the chief authority in the house of God; 12 their fellows, who did the work of the house, were eight hundred and twenty-two. There was also Adaiah son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah, 13 with his fellows, chiefs of the clans, to the number of two hundred and forty-two; also Amasliai son of Azarel, the son of Ahzai, the son of Meshillemoth, the son of Immer, 14 and his fellows, most efficient men, to the number of one hundred and twenty-eight, their overseer being Zabdiel the son of Haggedolim. 15 The Levites were Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashablah, the son of Bunni, 16 with Shabbethai and Jozabad, Levite chiefs who looked after the outside work upon the house of God, 17 and Mattaniah son of Mica, the son of Zabdi, the son of Asaph, who led the praise and the prayers, and Bukkiah, who was second to him in the company, and Abda son of Shammua, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun. 18 There were two hundred and eighty-four Levites altogether in the sacred city. 19 The warders, Akkub, Talmon, and their fellows, who kept guard at the gates, numbered one hundred and seventy-two. 21 The temple-attendants stayed in Ophel, headed by Ziha and Gishpa. 22 The overseer of the Levites at Jerusalem was Uzzi son of Bani, the son of Hashablah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Mica, belonging to the family of Asaph, the singers; he attended to the business of the house of God. 23 (For the king had given instructions regarding the Levites, and had ordered provision to be made duly for the singers every day. 24 All business connected with the people was in the hands of the king’s representative, Pethahiah the son of Meshezabel, belonging to the family of Zerah the Judahite.) 20 The rest of the laity, the priests, and the Levites, lived all over the towns of Judah, each in his own inheritance. 25 As for the hamlets and their fields, some of the Judahites stayed at Kiriath-arba and its hamlets, at Dibon and its hamlets, at Jekabzeel and its hamlets, 26 at Jeshua, Moladah, Beth-pelet, 27 and Hazarshual, at Beersheba and its hamlets, 28 at Ziklag, at Mekonah and its hamlets, 29 at En-rimmon, Zorah, and Jarmuth, 30 at Zanoah and Adullam and their hamlets, at Lakhish and its fields, and at Azekah and its hamlets; they were settled from Beersheba to the valley of Hinnom. 31 The Benjamites were settled from Geba onwards, at Michmash, Aijah, Bethel and its hamlets, 32 Anathoth, Nob, Ananiah, 33 Hazor, Bamah, Gittaim, 34 Hadid, Zeboim, Neballat, 35 Lod, Ono, and Craftsvale. 36 Some sections of the Levites belonging to Judah were attached to Benjamin.
