The Scriptures 1998

Nehemiah 11:18-36 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

18. All the Lĕwites in the set-apart city were two hundred and eighty-four.

19. And the gatekeepers, Aqquḇ, Talmon, and their brothers keeping guard at the gates, were one hundred and seventy-two.

20. And the rest of Yisra’ĕl, of the priests, Lĕwites, were in all the cities of Yehuḏah, each one in his inheritance.

21. But the Nethinim dwelt in Ophel. And Tsiḥa and Gishpa were over the Nethinim.

22. And the overseer of the Lĕwites at Yerushalayim was Uzzi son of Bani, son of Ḥashaḇyah, son of Mattanyah, son of Miḵa. Of the sons of Asaph, the singers were over the work of the House of Elohim,

23. for the sovereign’s command was upon them – and support for the singers, a matter day by day.

24. And Pethaḥyah son of Meshĕyzaḇ’ĕl, of the children of Zeraḥ son of Yehuḏah, was the sovereign’s deputy in all matters concerning the people.

25. And at the villages with their fields, some of the children of Yehuḏah dwelt in Qiryath Arba and its villages, and in Diḇon and its villages, and in Yeqaḇtse’ĕl and its villages,

26. and in Yĕshua, and in Molaḏah, and in Bĕyth Pelet,

27. and in Ḥatsar Shu‛al, and in Be’ĕrsheḇa and its villages,

28. and in Tsiqlag̅, and in Meḵonah and its villages,

29. and in Ěn Rimmon, and in Tsorah, and in Yarmuth,

30. Zanowaḥ, Aḏullam, and their villages; in Laḵish and its fields; in Azĕqah and its villages. So they dwelt from Be’ĕrsheḇa to the Valley of Hinnom.

31. And the children of Binyamin: from Geḇa, Miḵmash, and Ayyah, and Bĕyth Ěl, and their villages;

32. Anathoth, Noḇ, Ananyah;

33. Ḥatsor, Ramah, Gittayim;

34. Ḥaḏiḏ, Tseḇo‛im, Neḇallat;

35. Loḏ, and Ono, and the Valley of Craftsmen.

36. And of the Lĕwites, the divisions of Yehuḏah were for Binyamin.
