1城墙建完、门扇安好、歌乐手和利未人都已指派妥当后， 2我委任我的兄弟哈拿尼和城堡官员哈拿尼雅治理耶路撒冷，因为哈拿尼雅比众人更忠心、敬畏上帝。 3我吩咐他们说：“要在太阳升高、天气变热后，才能打开耶路撒冷的城门。守卫还在值勤时要关门上闩。要指派一些耶路撒冷的居民在各自的岗位看守，一些人在自己房屋附近看守。”
流亡归来者名单
4这城很大，但人口稀少，房屋尚未重建。 5我的上帝感动我召集贵族、官员和民众，按照他们的家谱进行登记。我找到第一批回归之人的家谱，上面记着：
6巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒从前把犹大省的人掳到巴比伦，这些人的子孙回到耶路撒冷和犹大后，各回本城。 7他们是与所罗巴伯、耶书亚、尼希米、亚撒利雅、拉米、拿哈玛尼、末底改、必珊、米斯毗列、比革瓦伊、尼宏和巴拿一同回来的。

63-64祭司中哈巴雅的子孙、哈哥斯的子孙和巴西莱的子孙在谱系中找不到自己的家谱，因此他们算为不洁净，不能做祭司。巴西莱子孙的祖先娶了基列人巴西莱的女儿为妻，因此得了这名字。 65省长吩咐他们不可吃至圣之物，直到使用乌陵和土明的祭司出现。
66回到犹大的人共四万二千三百六十人。 67此外，他们还有七千三百三十七名男女仆婢，二百四十五名男女歌乐手， 68七百三十六匹马，二百四十五匹骡子， 69四百三十五头骆驼和六千七百二十头驴。
70有些族长为工程捐出财物。省长捐出八点五公斤金子、五十个碗和五百三十件祭司礼服。 71族长捐出一百七十公斤金子和一千二百公斤银子。 72民众捐出一百七十公斤金子、一千一百公斤银子和六十七件祭司礼服。
73于是，祭司、利未人、殿门守卫、歌乐手、一些民众、殿役和全体以色列人都住在自己的城里。到了七月，以色列人都住在各自的城里。
1Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed, 2That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many. 3And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be over against his house. 4Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded.7.4 large: Heb. broad in spaces
5¶ And my God put into mine heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found written therein, 6These are the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city; 7Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah.

63¶ And of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the children of Koz, the children of Barzillai, which took one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite to wife, and was called after their name. 64These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood. 65And the Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.7.65 the Tirshatha: or, the governor
