5 After this, the chiefs of fathers’ houses were chosen to go up according to their tribes, with their wives, sons, and daughters, with their menservants and maidservants, and their livestock. 2 Darius sent with them one thousand cavalry to bring them back to Jerusalem with peace, with musical instruments, drums, and flutes. 3 All their kindred were making merry, and he made them go up together with them.
4 These are the names of the men who went up, according to their families amongst their tribes, after their several divisions. 5 The priests, the sons of Phinees, the sons of Aaron: Jesus the son of Josedek, the son of Saraias, and Joakim the son of Zorobabel, the son of Salathiel, of the house of David, of the lineage of Phares, of the tribe of Judah, 6 who spoke wise words before Darius the king of Persia in the second year of his reign, in the month Nisan, which is the first month.
7 [ref]These are the of Judeans who came up from the captivity, where they lived as foreigners, whom Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon had carried away to Babylon. 8 They returned to Jerusalem and to the other parts of Judea, every man to his own city, who came with Zorobabel, with Jesus, Nehemias, [fn] Zaraias, Resaias,[fn] Eneneus, Mardocheus, Beelsarus,[fn] Aspharsus,[fn] Reelias, Roimus, and Baana, their leaders.
9 The number of them of the nation and their leaders: the sons of Phoros, two thousand and one hundred and seventy two; the sons of[fn] Saphat, four hundred and seventy two; 10 the sons of[fn] Ares, seven hundred and fifty six; 11 the sons of[fn] Phaath Moab, of the sons of Jesus and Joab, two thousand and eight hundred and twelve; 12 the sons of Elam, one thousand and two hundred and fifty four; the sons of[fn] Zathui, nine hundred and forty five; the sons of[fn] Chorbe, seven hundred and five; the sons of Bani, six hundred and forty eight; 13 the sons of Bebai, six hundred and twenty three; the sons of[fn] Astad,[fn] one thousand and three hundred and twenty two; 14 the sons of Adonikam, six hundred and sixty seven; the sons of[fn] Bagoi, two thousand and sixty six; the sons of[fn] Adinu, four hundred and fifty four; 15 the sons of[fn] Ater, of Ezekias, ninety two; the sons of Kilan and Azetas, sixty seven; the sons of[fn] Azaru, four hundred and thirty two; 16 the sons of[fn] Annis, one hundred and one; the sons of Arom, the sons of[fn] Bassai, three hundred and twenty three; the sons of Arsiphurith, one hundred and twelve; 17 the sons of Baiterus, three thousand and five; the sons of[fn] Bethlomon, one hundred and twenty three; 18 those from Netophas, fifty five; those from Anathoth, one hundred and fifty eight; those from[fn] Bethasmoth, forty two; 19 those from [fn] Kariathiarius, twenty five: those from Caphira and Beroth, seven hundred and forty three; 20 the Chadiasai and Ammidioi, four hundred and twenty two; those from [fn]Kirama and [fn]Gabbe, six hundred and twenty one; 21 those from [fn]Macalon, one hundred and twenty two; those from [fn]Betolion, fifty two; the sons of [fn]Niphis, one hundred and fifty six; 22 the sons of [fn]Calamolalus and [fn]Onus, seven hundred and twenty five; the sons of [fn] Jerechu, [fn]three hundred and forty five; 23 and the sons of [fn]Sanaas, three thousand and three hundred and thirty.
24 The priests: the sons of [fn]Jeddu, the son of Jesus, amongst the sons of Sanasib, nine hundred and seventy two; the sons of [fn] Emmeruth, one thousand and fifty two; 25 the sons of [fn]Phassurus, one thousand and two hundred and forty seven; and the sons of [fn]Charme, one thousand and seventeen. 26 The Levites: the sons of Jesus, Kadmiel, Bannas, and Sudias, seventy four. 27 The holy singers: the sons of Asaph, one hundred and twenty eight. 28 The gatekeepers: the sons of[fn] Salum, the sons of[fn] Atar, the sons of Tolman, the sons of[fn] Dacubi, the sons of[fn] Ateta, the sons of[fn] Sabi, in all one hundred and thirty nine.
29 The temple servants: the sons of[fn] Esau, the sons of[fn] Asipha, the sons of Tabaoth, the sons of[fn] Keras, the sons of[fn] Sua, the sons of[fn] Phaleas, the sons of Labana, the sons of[fn] Aggaba. 30 the sons of[fn] Acud, the sons of Uta, the sons of Ketab, the sons of[fn] Accaba, the sons of[fn] Subai, the sons of[fn] Anan, the sons of[fn] Cathua, the sons of[fn] Geddur, 31 the sons of[fn] Jairus, the sons of[fn] Daisan, the sons of[fn] Noeba, the sons of Chaseba, the sons of[fn] Gazera, the sons of[fn] Ozias, the sons of[fn] Phinoe, the sons of Asara, the sons of[fn] Basthai, the sons of[fn] Asana, the sons of[fn] Maani, the sons of[fn] Naphisi, the sons of[fn] Acub, the sons of[fn] Achipha, the sons of[fn] Asur, the sons of Pharakim, the sons of[fn] Basaloth, 32 the sons of[fn] Meedda, the sons of Cutha, the sons of[fn] Charea, the sons of[fn] Barchus, the sons of[fn] Serar, the sons of[fn] Thomei, the sons of[fn] Nasi, the sons of Atipha.
33 The sons of the servants of Solomon: the sons of[fn] Assaphioth, the sons of[fn] Pharida, the sons of[fn] Jeeli, the sons of[fn] Lozon, the sons of[fn] Isdael, the sons of[fn] Saphuthi, 34 the sons of[fn] Agia, the sons of[fn] Phacareth, the sons of Sabie, the sons of Sarothie, the sons of[fn] Masias, the sons of Gas, the sons of Addus, the sons of Subas, the sons of Apherra, the sons of Barodis, the sons of Saphat, the sons of Allon.
35 All the temple-servants and the sons of the servants of Solomon were three hundred and seventy two. 36 These came up from[fn] Thermeleth, and[fn] Thelersas,[fn] Charaathalan leading them, and Allar; 37 and they could not show their families, nor their stock, how they were of Israel: the sons of[fn] Dalan the son of[fn] Ban, the sons of[fn] Nekodan, six hundred and fifty two.
38 Of the priests, those who usurped the office of the priesthood and were not found: the sons of[fn] Obdia, the sons of[fn] Akkos, the sons of Jaddus, who married Augia one of the daughters of[fn] Zorzelleus, and was called after his name. 39 When the description of the kindred of these men was sought in the register and was not found, they were removed from executing the office of the priesthood; 40 for Nehemias and Attharias told them that they should not be partakers of the holy things until a high priest wearing[fn] Urim and Thummim should arise.
41 So all those of Israel, from twelve years old and upward, beside menservants and women servants, were in number forty two thousand and three hundred and sixty. 42 Their menservants and handmaids were seven thousand and three hundred and thirty and seven; the minstrels and singers, two hundred and forty five; 43 four hundred and thirty and five camels, seven thousand and thirty six horses, two hundred and forty five mules, and five thousand and five hundred and twenty five beasts of burden.
44 And some of the chief men of their families, when they came to the temple of God that is in Jerusalem, vowed to set up the house again in its own place according to their ability, 45 and to give into the holy treasury of the works one thousand minas[fn] of gold, five thousand minas of silver, and one hundred priestly vestments.
46 The priests and the Levites and some of the people lived in Jerusalem and the country. The holy singers also and the gatekeepers and all Israel lived in their villages.
47 But when the seventh month was at hand, and when the children of Israel were each in their own place, they all came together with one purpose into the broad place before the first porch which is towards the east. 48 Then Jesus the son of Josedek, his kindred the priests, Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and his kindred stood up and made the altar of the God of Israel ready 49 to offer burnt sacrifices upon it, in accordance with the express commands in the book of Moses the man of God. 50 Some people joined them out of the other nations of the land, and they erected the altar upon its own place, because all the nations of the land were hostile to them and oppressed them; and they offered sacrifices at the proper times and burnt offerings to the Lord both morning and evening. 51 They also held the feast of tabernacles, as it is commanded in the law, and offered sacrifices daily, as appropriate. 52 After that, they offered the continual oblations and the sacrifices of the Sabbaths, of the new moons, and of all the consecrated feasts. 53 All those who had made any vow to God began to offer sacrifices to God from the new moon of the seventh month, although the temple of God was not yet built. 54 They gave money, food, and drink to the masons and carpenters. 55 They also gave carts to the people of Sidon and Tyre, that they should bring cedar trees from Libanus, and convey them in rafts to the harbour of Joppa, according to the commandment which was written for them by Cyrus king of the Persians.
56 In the second year after his coming to the temple of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, Jesus the son of Josedek, their kindred, the Levitical priests, and all those who had come to Jerusalem out of the captivity began work. 57 They laid the foundation of God’s temple on the new moon of the second month, in the second year after they had come to Judea and Jerusalem. 58 [ref]They appointed the Levites who were at least twenty years old over the Lord’s works. Then Jesus, with his sons and kindred, Kadmiel his brother, the sons of Jesus, Emadabun, and the sons of Joda the son of Iliadun, and their sons and kindred, all the Levites, with one accord stood up and started the business, labouring to advance the works in the house of God. So the builders built the Lord’s temple.
59 The priests stood arrayed in their vestments with musical instruments and trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with their cymbals, 60 singing songs of thanksgiving and praising the Lord, according to the directions of King David of Israel. 61 They sang aloud, praising the Lord in songs of thanksgiving, because his goodness and his glory are forever in all Israel. 62 All the people sounded trumpets and shouted with a loud voice, singing songs of thanksgiving to the Lord for the raising up of the Lord’s house. 63 [ref]Some of the Levitical priests and of the heads of their families, the elderly who had seen the former house came to the building of this one with lamentation and great weeping. 64 But many with trumpets and joy shouted with a loud voice, 65 so that the people couldn’t hear the trumpets for the weeping of the people, for the multitude sounded loudly, so that it was heard far away.
66 [ref] Therefore when the enemies of the tribe of Judah and Benjamin heard it, they came to know what that noise of trumpets meant. 67 They learnt that those who returned from captivity built the temple for the Lord, the God of Israel. 68 So they went to Zorobabel and Jesus, and to the chief men of the families, and said to them, “We will build together with you. 69 For we, just like you, obey your Lord, and sacrifice to him from the days of King [fn] Asbasareth of the Assyrians, who brought us here.”
70 Then Zorobabel, Jesus and the chief men of the families of Israel said to them, “It is not for you to build the house for the Lord our God. 71 We ourselves alone will build for the Lord of Israel, as King Cyrus of the Persians has commanded us.” 72 But the heathen of the land pressed hard upon the inhabitants of Judea, cut off their supplies, and hindered their building. 73 By their secret plots, and popular persuasions and commotions, they hindered the finishing of the building all the time that King Cyrus lived. So they were hindered from building for two years, until the reign of Darius.
