Nehemiah 7:5

My God placed it on my heart to gather the leaders, ¹  the officials, and the ordinary people so they could be enrolled on the basis of genealogy. I found the genealogical records ²  of those who had formerly returned. Here is what I found written in that record: ³ 

1Ch 9:1-9; Ezr 2:62; Ezr 7:27; Ne 5:19; Ne 6:14; Ne 7:64; 1Co 15:10; 2Co 3:5; 2Co 8:16; Php 2:12,13; Col 1:29; Jas 1:16

¹ tn Heb “nobles”; NCV “important men.”

² tn Heb “the book of genealogy.”

³ tn Heb “in it”; the referent (the genealogical record) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
