Nehemiah 12:44--13:3

And at that time
<03117>
were some
<0582>
appointed
<06485> (8735)
over the chambers
<05393>
for the treasures
<0214>_,
for the offerings
<08641>_,
for the firstfruits
<07225>_,
and for the tithes
<04643>_,
to gather
<03664> (8800)
into them out of the fields
<07704>
of the cities
<05892>
the portions
<04521>
of the law
<08451>
for the priests
<03548>
and Levites
<03881>_:
for Judah
<03063>
rejoiced
<08057>
for the priests
<03548>
and for the Levites
<03881>
that waited
<05975> (8802)_.
{of the law: that is, appointed by the law} {for Judah...: Heb. for the joy of Judah} {waited: Heb. stood}
And both the singers
<07891> (8789)
and the porters
<07778>
kept
<08104> (8799)
the ward
<04931>
of their God
<0430>_,
and the ward
<04931>
of the purification
<02893>_,
according to the commandment
<04687>
of David
<01732>_,
[and] of Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>_.
For in the days
<03117>
of David
<01732>
and Asaph
<0623>
of old
<06924>
[there were] chief
<07218>
of the singers
<07891> (8789)_,
and songs
<07892>
of praise
<08416>
and thanksgiving
<03034> (8687)
unto God
<0430>_.
And all Israel
<03478>
in the days
<03117>
of Zerubbabel
<02216>_,
and in the days
<03117>
of Nehemiah
<05166>_,
gave
<05414> (8802)
the portions
<04521>
of the singers
<07891> (8789)
and the porters
<07778>_,
every day
<03117>
his portion
<01697>_:
and they sanctified
<06942> (8688)
[holy things] unto the Levites
<03881>_;
and the Levites
<03881>
sanctified
<06942> (8688)
[them] unto the children
<01121>
of Aaron
<0175>_.
{sanctified: that is, set apart}
On that day
<03117>
they read
<07121> (8738)
in the book
<05612>
of Moses
<04872>
in the audience
<0241>
of the people
<05971>_;
and therein was found
<04672> (8738)
written
<03789> (8803)_,
that the Ammonite
<05984>
and the Moabite
<04125>
should not come
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of God
<0430>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_;
{they...: Heb. there was read} {audience: Heb. ears}
Because they met
<06923> (8765)
not the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
with bread
<03899>
and with water
<04325>_,
but hired
<07936> (8799)
Balaam
<01109>
against them, that he should curse
<07043> (8763)
them: howbeit our God
<0430>
turned
<02015> (8799)
the curse
<07045>
into a blessing
<01293>_.
Now it came to pass, when they had heard
<08085> (8800)
the law
<08451>_,
that they separated
<0914> (8686)
from Israel
<03478>
all the mixed multitude
<06154>_.
