<06126>_,
[were] porters
<07778>
keeping
<08104> (8802)
the ward
<04929>
at the thresholds
<0624>
of the gates
<08179>_.
{thresholds: or, treasuries, or, assemblies}
12:26
These [were] in the days
<03117>
of Joiakim
<03113>
the son
<01121>
of Jeshua
<03442>_,
the son
<01121>
of Jozadak
<03136>_,
and in the days
<03117>
of Nehemiah
<05166>
the governor
<06346>_,
and of Ezra
<05830>
the priest
<03548>_,
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_.
12:27
And at the dedication
<02598>
of the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
they sought
<01245> (8765)
the Levites
<03881>
out of all their places
<04725>_,
to bring
<0935> (8687)
them to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
to keep
<06213> (8800)
the dedication
<02598>
with gladness
<08057>_,
both with thanksgivings
<08426>_,
and with singing
<07892>_,
[with] cymbals
<04700>_,
psalteries
<05035>_,
and with harps
<03658>_.
12:28
And the sons
<01121>
of the singers
<07891> (8789)
gathered themselves together
<0622> (8735)_,
both out of the plain country
<03603>
round about
<05439>
Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and from the villages
<02691>
of Netophathi
<05200>_;
12:29
Also from the house
<01004>
of Gilgal
<01537> (8677) <01019>_,
and out of the fields
<07704>
of Geba
<01387>
and Azmaveth
<05820>_:
for the singers
<07891> (8789)
had builded
<01129> (8804)
them villages
<02691>
round about
<05439>
Jerusalem
<03389>_.
12:30
And the priests
<03548>
and the Levites
<03881>
purified
<02891> (8691)
themselves, and purified
<02891> (8762)
the people
<05971>_,
and the gates
<08179>_,
and the wall
<02346>_.
12:31
Then I brought up
<05927> (8686)
the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>
upon the wall
<02346>_,
and appointed
<05975> (8686)
two
<08147>
great
<01419>
[companies of them that gave] thanks
<08426>_,
[whereof one] went
<08418>
on the right hand
<03225>
upon the wall
<02346>
toward the dung
<0830>
gate
<08179>_:
12:32
And after
<0310>
them went
<03212> (8799)
Hoshaiah
<01955>_,
and half
<02677>

<08269>

<03063>_,
12:33
And Azariah

<03414>_,
12:35
And [certain] of the priests
<03548>_'
sons
<01121>

<02689>_;
[namely], Zechariah
<02148>

<01121>
of Jonathan
<03129>_,

<04320>_,
the son
<01121>
of Zaccur
<02139>_,

<01121>
of Asaph
<0623>_:
12:36
And his brethren
<0251>_,

<08098>_,
and Azarael
<05832>_,
Milalai
<04450>_,

instruments
<03627>
of David
<01732>
the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
and Ezra
<05830>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)
before
<06440>
them.
12:37
And at the fountain
<05869>
gate
<08179>_,
which was over against them, they went up
<05927> (8804)
by the stairs
<04609>
of the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
at the going up
<04608>
of the wall
<02346>_,
above the house
<01004>
of David
<01732>_,
even unto the water
<04325>
gate
<08179>
eastward
<04217>_.
12:38
And the other
<08145>
[company of them that gave] thanks
<08426>
went
<01980> (8802)
over against
<04136>
[them], and I after
<0310>
them, and the half
<02677>
of the people
<05971>
upon the wall
<02346>_,
from beyond the tower
<04026>
of the furnaces
<08574>
even unto the broad
<07342>
wall
<02346>_;
12:39
And from above the gate
<08179>
of Ephraim
<0669>_,
and above the old
<03465>
gate
<08179>_,
and above the fish
<01709>
gate
<08179>_,
and the tower
<04026>
of Hananeel
<02606>_,
and the tower
<04026>
of Meah
<03968>_,
even unto the sheep
<06629>
gate
<08179>_:
and they stood still
<05975> (8804)
in the prison
<04307>
gate
<08179>_.
12:40
So stood
<05975> (8799)
the two
<08147>
[companies of them that gave] thanks
<08426>
in the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,
and I, and the half
<02677>
of the rulers
<05461>
with me:
12:41
And the priests
<03548>_;
Eliakim
<0471>_,
Maaseiah
<04641>_,
Miniamin
<04509>_,
Michaiah
<04320>_,
Elioenai
<0454>_,
Zechariah
<02148>_,
[and] Hananiah
<02608>_,
with trumpets
<02689>_;
12:42
And Maaseiah
<04641>_,
and Shemaiah
<08098>_,
and Eleazar
<0499>_,
and Uzzi
<05813>_,
and Jehohanan
<03076>_,
and Malchijah
<04441>_,
and Elam
<05867>_,
and Ezer
<05829>_.
And the singers
<07891> (8789)
sang loud
<08085> (8686)_,
with Jezrahiah
<03156>
[their] overseer
<06496>_.
{sang...: Heb. made their voice to be heard}
12:43
Also that day
<03117>
they offered
<02076> (8799)
great
<01419>
sacrifices
<02077>_,
and rejoiced
<08055> (8799)_:
for God
<0430>
had made them rejoice
<08055> (8765)
with great
<01419>
joy
<08057>_:
the wives
<0802>
also and the children
<03206>
rejoiced
<08055> (8804)_:
so that the joy
<08057>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
was heard
<08085> (8735)
even afar off
<07350>_.
12:44
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}
12:45
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>_.
12:46
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>_.
12:47
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}
