Chapter 7

4Now the city was large and spacious, but the people in it were few and the houses were not built.
5Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the other people to be enrolled by genealogies. Then I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up first, in which I found the following record:
6These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had taken into exile, and who returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his city,

66The whole assembly together totaled 42,360,

4At that time the city was large and spacious, but the population was small, and none of the houses had been rebuilt. 5So my God gave me the idea to call together all the nobles and leaders of the city, along with the ordinary citizens, for registration. I had found the genealogical record of those who had first returned to Judah. This is what was written there:
6Here is the list of the Jewish exiles of the provinces who returned from their captivity. King Nebuchadnezzar had deported them to Babylon, but now they returned to Jerusalem and the other towns in Judah where they originally lived.
7Their leaders were Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, and Baanah. This is the number of the men of Israel who returned from exile:
8The family of Parosh — 2,172 9The family of Shephatiah — 372 10The family of Arah — 652 11The family of Pahath-moab (descendants of Jeshua and Joab) — 2,818 12The family of Elam — 1,254 13The family of Zattu — 845 14The family of Zaccai — 760 15The family of Bani — 648 16The family of Bebai — 628 17The family of Azgad — 2,322 18The family of Adonikam — 667 19The family of Bigvai — 2,067 20The family of Adin — 655 21The family of Ater (descendants of Hezekiah) — 98 22The family of Hashum — 328 23The family of Bezai — 324 24The family of Jorah — 112 25The family of Gibbar — 95 26The people of Bethlehem and Netophah — 188 27The people of Anathoth — 128 28The people of Beth-azmaveth — 42 29The people of Kiriath-jearim, Kephirah, and Beeroth — 743 30The people of Ramah and Geba — 621 31The people of Micmash — 122 32The people of Bethel and Ai — 123 33The people of West Nebo — 52 34The citizens of West Elam — 1,254 35The citizens of Harim — 320 36The citizens of Jericho — 345 37The citizens of Lod, Hadid, and Ono — 721 38The citizens of Senaah — 3,930
39These are the priests who returned from exile: The family of Jedaiah (through the line of Jeshua) — 973 40The family of Immer — 1,052 41The family of Pashhur — 1,247 42The family of Harim — 1,017
43These are the Levites who returned from exile: The families of Jeshua and Kadmiel (descendants of Hodaviah ) — 74 44The singers of the family of Asaph — 148 45The gatekeepers of the families of Shallum, Ater, Talmon, Akkub, Hatita, and Shobai — 138
46The descendants of the following Temple servants returned from exile: Ziha, Hasupha, Tabbaoth,
47Keros, Siaha, Padon,
48Lebanah, Hagabah, Shalmai,
49Hanan, Giddel, Gahar,
50Reaiah, Rezin, Nekoda,
51Gazzam, Uzza, Paseah,
52Besai, Meunim, Nephusim,
53Bakbuk, Hakupha, Harhur,
54Bazluth, Mehida, Harsha,
55Barkos, Sisera, Temah,
56Neziah, and Hatipha.
57The descendants of these servants of King Solomon returned from exile: Sotai, Hassophereth, Peruda,
58Jaalah, Darkon, Giddel,
59Shephatiah, Hattil, Pokereth-hazzebaim, and Ami.
60In all, the Temple servants and the descendants of Solomon’s servants numbered 392.
61Another group returned at this time from the towns of Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Kerub, Addan, and Immer. However, they could not prove that they or their families were descendants of Israel. 62This group included the families of Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda — a total of 642 people.
63Three families of priests — Hobaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai — also returned. (This Barzillai had married a woman who was a descendant of Barzillai of Gilead, and he had taken her family name.) 64They searched for their names in the genealogical records, but they were not found, so they were disqualified from serving as priests. 65The governor told them not to eat the priests’ share of food from the sacrifices until a priest could consult the Lord about the matter by using the Urim and Thummim — the sacred lots.
66So a total of 42,360 people returned to Judah,
