  • NE-13:1 On that day they read in the book of Moses in the

  • audience of the people; and therein was found written, that the

  • Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation

  • of God for ever;







  • NE-13:2 Because they met not the children of Israel with bread

  • and with water, but hired Balaam against them, that he should

  • curse them: howbeit our God turned the curse into a blessing.







  • NE-13:3 Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that

  • they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.







  • NE-13:4 And before this, Eliashib the priest, having the

  • oversight of the chamber of the house of our God, [was] allied

  • unto Tobiah:







  • NE-13:5 And he had prepared for him a great chamber, where

  • aforetime they laid the meat offerings, the frankincense, and

  • the vessels, and the tithes of the corn, the new wine, and the

  • oil, which was commanded [to be given] to the Levites, and the

  • singers, and the porters; and the offerings of the priests.







  • NE-13:6 But in all this [time] was not I at Jerusalem: for in

  • the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon came I

  • unto the king, and after certain days obtained I leave of the

  • king:







  • NE-13:7 And I came to Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that

  • Eliashib did for Tobiah, in preparing him a chamber in the

  • courts of the house of God.







  • NE-13:8 And it grieved me sore: therefore I cast forth all the

  • household stuff of Tobiah out of the chamber.







  • NE-13:9 Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers: and

  • thither brought I again the vessels of the house of God, with

  • the meat offering and the frankincense.







  • NE-13:10 And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had

  • not been given [them]: for the Levites and the singers, that did

  • the work, were fled every one to his field.







  • NE-13:11 Then contended I with the rulers, and said, Why is the

  • house of God forsaken? And I gathered them together, and set

  • them in their place.







  • NE-13:12 Then brought all Judah the tithe of the corn and the

  • new wine and the oil unto the treasuries.







  • NE-13:13 And I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah

  • the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah:

  • and next to them [was] Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of

  • Mattaniah: for they were counted faithful, and their office

  • [was] to distribute unto their brethren.







  • NE-13:14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not

  • out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and

  • for the offices thereof.







  • NE-13:15 In those days saw I in Judah [some] treading wine

  • presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading

  • asses; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all [manner of]

  • burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day:

  • and I testified [against them] in the day wherein they sold

  • victuals.







  • NE-13:16 There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought

  • fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the

  • children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.







  • NE-13:17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said

  • unto them, What evil thing [is] this that ye do, and profane the

  • sabbath day?







  • NE-13:18 Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring

  • all this evil upon us, and upon this city? yet ye bring more

  • wrath upon Israel by profaning the sabbath.







  • NE-13:19 And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem

  • began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates

  • should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till

  • after the sabbath: and [some] of my servants set I at the gates,

  • [that] there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day.







  • NE-13:20 So the merchants and sellers of all kind of ware lodged

  • without Jerusalem once or twice.







  • NE-13:21 Then I testified against them, and said unto them, Why

  • lodge ye about the wall? if ye do [so] again, I will lay hands

  • on you. From that time forth came they no [more] on the sabbath.







  • NE-13:22 And I commanded the Levites that they should cleanse

  • themselves, and [that] they should come [and] keep the gates, to

  • sanctify the sabbath day. Remember me, O my God, [concerning]

  • this also, and spare me according to the greatness of thy mercy.







  • NE-13:23 In those days also saw I Jews [that] had married wives

  • of Ashdod, of Ammon, [and] of Moab:







  • NE-13:24 And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod,

  • and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the

  • language of each people.







  • NE-13:25 And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote

  • certain of them, and plucked off their hair, and made them swear

  • by God, [saying], Ye shall not give your daughters unto their

  • sons, nor take their daughters unto your sons, or for yourselves.







  • NE-13:26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet

  • among many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved

  • of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless

  • even him did outlandish women cause to sin.







  • NE-13:27 Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great

  • evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange wives?







  • NE-13:28 And [one] of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib

  • the high priest, [was] son in law to Sanballat the Horonite:

  • therefore I chased him from me.







  • NE-13:29 Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the

  • priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the

  • Levites.







  • NE-13:30 Thus cleansed I them from all strangers, and appointed

  • the wards of the priests and the Levites, every one in his

  • business;







  • NE-13:31 And for the wood offering, at times appointed, and for

  • the firstfruits. Remember me, O my God, for good.
