Nehemiah 7

Yeshua Literal Version (YLV)

1And it came to pass, when the wall was built, that I set up the doors; and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed.

2And I commanded (tzivvah) Hanani my brother, and Hananiah the commander of the citadel, over Jerusalem; for he was as a man (ish) of truth, and feared God above many.

3And I said to them, "Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the heat of the sun; and while they are standing, let them shut the doors and bar them; and set up charges (mishmeret) of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, each man (ish) in his watch, and each man (ish) opposite his house."

4And the city was broad of hands and large, but the people were few in its midst, and there were no houses built.

5And my God put into my heart, and I gathered the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, to be reckoned by genealogy. And I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found written in it:

6These are the sons of the province who came up out of the captivity of the exile, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried into exile, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, each man (ish) to his city;
