and the children of Solomon’s servants, were three hundred ninety-two.
59 These were those who went up from Tel Melah,
Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer; but they could not show their fathers’
houses, and their offspring, whether they were of Israel: 60 the children
of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the children of Nekoda, six hundred
fifty-two. 61 Of the children of the priests: the children of Habaiah, 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. 62 These
sought their place among those who were registered by genealogy, but they were
not found: therefore were they deemed polluted and put out from the priesthood.
63 The governor said to them, that they should not eat of the most holy
things, until there stood up a priest with Urim and with Thummim.
64 The whole assembly together was forty-two
thousand three hundred sixty, 65 besides their male servants and their
female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven:
and they had two hundred singing men and singing women. 66 Their horses
were seven hundred thirty-six; their mules, two hundred forty-five; 67 their
camels, four hundred thirty-five; their donkeys, six thousand seven hundred and
twenty. 68 Some of the heads of fathers’ households, when they came to Jehovah’s
house which is in Jerusalem, offered willingly for God’s house to set it up in
its place: 69 they gave after their ability into the treasury of the work
sixty-one thousand darics of gold, and five thousand minas of silver, and one
hundred priests’ garments. 70 So the priests, and the Levites, and some of
the people, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinim, lived in their
cities, and all Israel in their cities.
