Ezra 2:62-69 Amplified Bible (AMP)

62. These sought their names among those enrolled in the genealogies, but they were not found; so they were excluded from the priesthood as [ceremonially] unclean.

63. [Zerubbabel] the governor told them they should not eat of the most holy things [the priests' food] until there should be a priest with Urim and Thummim [who by consulting these articles in his breastplate could know God's will in the matter].

64. The whole congregation numbered 42,360,

65. Besides their menservants and maidservants, 7,337; and among them they had 200 men and women singers.

66. Their horses were 736; their mules, 245;

67. Their camels were 435; their donkeys, 6,720.

68. Some of the heads of families, when they came to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, made freewill offerings for the house of God to [re]build it on its site.

69. They gave as they were able to the treasury for the work 61,000 darics of gold, 5,000 minas of silver, and 100 priests' garments.
