Nehemiah 9:22

9:22 “You gave them kingdoms and peoples, and you allocated them to every corner of the land. ¹  They inherited the land of King Sihon of Heshbon ²  and the land of King Og of Bashan.

Nehemiah 13:13

13:13 I gave instructions ³  that Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and a certain Levite named Pedaiah be put in charge of ⁴  the storerooms, and that Hanan son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah, be their assistant, ⁵  for they were regarded as trustworthy. It was then their responsibility to oversee the distribution to their colleagues. ⁶ 

[9:22]  ¹ tn The words “of the land” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[9:22]  ² tc Most Hebrew MSS read “the land of Sihon and the land of the king of Heshbon.” The present translation (along with NAB, NASB, NIV, NCV, NRSV, CEV, NLT) follows the reading of one Hebrew MS, the LXX, and the Vulgate.

[13:13]  ³ tc Probably one should read with the Lucianic Greek recension, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Vulgate וָאֲצַוֶּה (va’atsavveh, “and I commanded”) rather than the rare denominative verb וָאוֹצְרָה (va’otsÿrah, “and I appointed over the storeroom”) of the MT.

[13:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “be over”

[13:13]  ⁵ tn Heb “on their hand.”

[13:13]  ⁶ tn Heb “brothers.”
