Nehemiah 7:5

7:5 My God placed it on my heart to gather the leaders, ²  the officials, and the ordinary people so they could be enrolled on the basis of genealogy. I found the genealogical records ³  of those who had formerly returned. Here is what I found written in that record: ⁴ 

[7:64]  ¹ tn Heb “they were desecrated.”

[7:5]  ² tn Heb “nobles”; NCV “important men.”

[7:5]  ³ tn Heb “the book of genealogy.”

[7:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “in it”; the referent (the genealogical record) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
