After the Exile
9 All Israel was registered in the genealogies that are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel. But Judah was exiled(AG) to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness. 2 The first(AH) to live in their towns on their own property again were Israelites, priests, Levites, and temple servants.(AI)
3 These people from the descendants of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh settled in Jerusalem:

Shallum was their chief; 18 he was previously stationed at the King’s Gate on the east side.(AN) These were the gatekeepers from the camp of the Levites.
19 Shallum son of Kore, son of Ebiasaph, son of Korah and his relatives from his ancestral family, the Korahites, were assigned to guard the thresholds of the tent.[p] Their ancestors had been assigned to the Lord’s camp as guardians of the entrance.(AO) 20 In earlier times Phinehas son of Eleazar had been their leader, and the Lord was with him.(AP) 21 Zechariah son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance to the tent of meeting.(AQ)
22 The total number of those chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds was 212. They were registered by genealogy in their settlements. David and the seer Samuel had appointed them(AR) to their trusted positions. 23 So they and their sons were assigned as guards to the gates of the Lord’s temple, which had been the tent-temple. 24 The gatekeepers were on the four sides: east, west, north, and south. 25 Their relatives came from their settlements(AS) at fixed times to be with them seven days,(AT) 26 but the four chief gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted with the rooms and the treasuries of God’s temple.(AU) 27 They spent the night in the vicinity of God’s temple, because they had guard duty and were in charge of opening it every morning.(AV)
28 Some of them were in charge of the utensils used in worship. They would count them when they brought them in and when they took them out. 29 Others were put in charge of the furnishings and all the utensils of the sanctuary,(AW) as well as the fine flour,(AX) wine, oil, incense, and spices. 30 Some of the priests’ sons mixed the spices.(AY) 31 A Levite called Mattithiah, the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, was entrusted with baking the bread.[q] 32 Some of the Kohathites’ relatives were responsible for preparing the rows of the Bread of the Presence(AZ) every Sabbath.
33 The singers,(BA) the heads of the Levite families, stayed in the temple chambers and were exempt from other tasks because they were on duty day and night.(BB) 34 These(BC) were the heads of the Levite families, chiefs according to their family records; they lived in Jerusalem.

54 These were the locations of their settlements(AM) allotted as their territory (they were assigned to the descendants of Aaron who were from the Kohathite clan, because the first lot was for them):
55 They were given Hebron in Judah with its surrounding pasturelands. 56 But the fields and villages around the city were given to Caleb son of Jephunneh.(AN)
57 So the descendants of Aaron were given Hebron (a city of refuge), and Libnah,[h](AO) Jattir,(AP) Eshtemoa, 58 Hilen, Debir,(AQ) 59 Ashan,(AR) Juttah[i] and Beth Shemesh, together with their pasturelands. 60 And from the tribe of Benjamin they were given Gibeon,[j] Geba, Alemeth and Anathoth,(AS) together with their pasturelands.

John 13:21-38
Christian Standard Bible
Judas’s Betrayal Predicted
21 When(A) Jesus had said this, he was troubled in his spirit(B) and testified,(C) “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.”
22 The disciples started looking at one another—uncertain which one he was speaking about. 23 One of his disciples, the one Jesus loved,(D) was reclining close beside Jesus.[a] 24 Simon Peter motioned to him to find out who it was he was talking about. 25 So he leaned back against Jesus and asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesus replied, “He’s the one I give the piece of bread to after I have dipped it.”(E) When he had dipped the bread,(F) he gave it to Judas, Simon Iscariot’s son.[b] 27 After Judas ate the piece of bread, Satan(G) entered him. So Jesus told him, “What you’re doing, do quickly.”
28 None of those reclining at the table knew why he said this to him. 29 Since Judas(H) kept the money-bag, some thought that Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need for the festival,”(I) or that he should give something to the poor. 30 After receiving the piece of bread, he immediately left. And it was night.(J)
The New Command
31 When(K) he had left, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man(L) is glorified, and God is glorified(M) in him.(N) 32 If God is glorified in him,[c] God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. 33 Little children, I am with you a little while longer.(O) You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so now I tell you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’(P)
34 “I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love(Q) one another.”
Peter’s Denials Predicted
36 “Lord,” Simon Peter said to him, “where are you going?”
Jesus answered, “Where I am going(R) you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.”
37 “Lord,” Peter asked, “why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life(S) for you.”(T)
38 Jesus replied, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly I tell you, a rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times.

John 13:21-38
New International Version
21 After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit(A) and testified, “Very truly I tell you, one of you is going to betray me.”(B)
22 His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant. 23 One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved,(C) was reclining next to him. 24 Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, “Ask him which one he means.”
25 Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, “Lord, who is it?”(D)
26 Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas,(E) the son of Simon Iscariot. 27 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him.(F)
So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” 28 But no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him. 29 Since Judas had charge of the money,(G) some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the festival,(H) or to give something to the poor.(I) 30 As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night.(J)
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(K)
31 When he was gone, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man(L) is glorified(M) and God is glorified in him.(N) 32 If God is glorified in him,[a] God will glorify the Son in himself,(O) and will glorify him at once.
33 “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.(P)
34 “A new command(Q) I give you: Love one another.(R) As I have loved you, so you must love one another.(S) 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”(T)
36 Simon Peter asked him, “Lord, where are you going?”(U)
Jesus replied, “Where I am going, you cannot follow now,(V) but you will follow later.”(W)
37 Peter asked, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
38 Then Jesus answered, “Will you really lay down your life for me? Very truly I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times!(X)
