Återkomsten från Babylon
De återvändande från Babylon
(Neh 11:3-19)
9 Hela Israel var upptecknat i släktregister och uppskrivet i Israels kungars krönikor.
Juda fördes bort i fångenskap till Babylon på grund av sin trolöshet.
2 De första som kom tillbaka till sina gamla hemstäder och egendomar var israeliter, präster, leviter och tempeltjänare.
3 Från Judas, Benjamins, Efraims och Manasses stammar återvände några till Jerusalem:
4 Utaj, son till Ammihud, som var son till Omri, son till Imri, son till Bani, som tillhörde Peres, Judas sons, släkt.
5 Vidare: av Shelas efterkommande Asaja, den förstfödde, och dennes söner.
6 Av Serachs ättlingar Jeguel. Allt som allt var det 690 personer från Juda.
7 Av Benjamins ättlingar: Sallu, son till Meshullam, son till Hodavja, son till Hassenua, 8 Jivneja, son till Jerocham, Ela, son till Ussi, son till Mikri, och Meshullam, son till Shefatja, son till Reguel, son till Jivnia.
9 Dessa från Benjamin, som upptecknats i deras släktregister, var 956 män, alla familjeöverhuvuden.
10 Av präster: Jedaja, Jojariv, Jakin, 11 Asarja, son till Hilkia, son till Meshullam, son till Sadok, son till Merajot, son till Achituv, fursten i Guds hus,
12 Adaja, son till Jerocham, son till Pashchur, son till Malkia, och Masaj, son till Adiel, son till Jachsera, son till Meshullam, son till Meshillemit[a] son till Immer.
13 Dessa ättlingar var 1 760 till antalet. De var alla familjeöverhuvuden, dugliga män för tjänsten i Guds hus.
14 Av leviterna: Shemaja, son till Hashuv, son till Asrikam, son till Hashavja, av Meraris släkt. 15 Vidare: Bakbackar, Heresh, Galal och Mattanja, son till Mika, son till Sikri, son till Asaf, 16 Obadja, son till Shemaja, son till Galal, son till Jedutun, och Berekja, son till Asa, son till Elkana, som bodde i netofatéernas byar.
17 Dörrvaktare: Shallum, Ackuv, Talmon och Achiman, med Shallum som deras ledare. 18 De var fortfarande ansvariga för Kungsporten i öster. Dessa var dörrvakter i leviternas läger. 19 Shallum, son till Kore, son till Evjasaf, son till Korach, och hans närmaste släktingar bland korachiterna hade ansvaret för vakthållningen vid tältets[b] ingångar, precis som deras förfäder hade haft vid ingången till Herrens läger. 20 Pinechas, Elasars son, hade tidigare varit furste över dem. Herren hade varit med honom. 21 Sakarja, Meshelemjas son, var dörrvaktare vid uppenbarelsetältets ingång.
22 Allt som allt fanns det 212 utvalda dörrvaktare. De var registrerade i sin bys släktregister. David och siaren Samuel hade utsett dem till deras förtroendeuppdrag. 23 De och deras ättlingar ansvarade för vakthållningen vid portarna i Herrens hus, tältet. 24 De fanns på alla fyra sidorna, den östra, västra, norra och södra sidan. 25 Deras släktingar, som bodde i byarna, kom och deltog i deras uppgifter regelbundet i perioder om sju dagar.
26 De fyra främsta dörrvaktarna, samtliga leviter, var ansvariga för förrummen och skattkammaren i Guds hus. 27 De tillbringade natten runt omkring Guds hus och hade ansvaret att öppna portarna varje morgon.
28 Några av dem hade som sin uppgift att ansvara för de kärl som användes vid gudstjänster. De räknade kärlen, både när de tog in dem och när de tog ut dem. 29 Andra var ansvariga för de övriga tillbehören, det som fanns inne i helgedomen, som mjöl, vin, rökelse, olja och kryddor.
30 Vissa präster blandade kryddorna.
31 Mattitja, en av leviterna och den förstfödde sonen till korachiten Shallum, hade ansvaret för bakningen av bröden.
32 Några av deras släktingar i Kehats släkt hade ansvar för det bröd som skulle förberedas till varje sabbat och läggas fram.
33 De som var musiker, överhuvuden för levitiska familjer, bodde i särskilda rum. De var i tjänst dag och natt och befriade från andra uppgifter. 34 Dessa var de levitiska familjernas överhuvuden, uppräknade i deras släktregister, och de bodde i Jerusalem.
Det förenade kungariket
(1 Krön 9:35—2 Krön 9:31)
Sauls släkt
(1 Krön 8:29-38)
35 I Givon bodde Jeiel, Givons far. Hans hustru hette Maaka. 36 Hans förstfödde son var Avdon. Han följdes av Sur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadav, 37 Gedor, Achjo, Sakarja och Miklot, 38 som var far till Shimam. Alla dessa bodde tillsammans med sina släktingar i Jerusalem.
39 Ner var far till Kish, Kish till Saul, och Saul till Jonatan, Malki-Shua, Avinadav och Eshbaal[c]
40 Jonatans son var Meriv-Baal[d] som var far till Mika.
41 Mikas söner var Piton, Melek, Tachrea och Achas.
42 Achas var far till Jada, som var far till Alemet, Asmavet och Simri. Simri var far till Mosa. 43 Mosa var far till Bina, vars son var Refaja, vars son var Elasa, vars son var Asel.
44 Asel hade sex söner: Asrikam, den förstfödde, Ismael, Shearja, Asarja, Obadja och Hanan. Dessa var Asels söner.
1 Chronicles 9
New King James Version
Priests and Levites in Jerusalem
9 So (A)all Israel was [a]recorded by genealogies, and indeed, they were inscribed in the book of the kings of Israel. But Judah was carried away captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness. 2 (B)And the first inhabitants who dwelt in their possessions in their cities were Israelites, priests, Levites, and (C)the Nethinim.
Dwellers in Jerusalem
3 Now in (D)Jerusalem the children of Judah dwelt, and some of the children of Benjamin, and of the children of Ephraim and Manasseh: 4 Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, of the descendants of Perez, the son of Judah. 5 Of the Shilonites: Asaiah the firstborn and his sons. 6 Of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel, and their brethren—six hundred and ninety. 7 Of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah; 8 Ibneiah the son of Jeroham; Elah the son of Uzzi, the son of Michri; Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah; 9 and their brethren, according to their generations—nine hundred and fifty-six. All these men were heads of a father’s house in their fathers’ houses.
The Priests at Jerusalem
10 (E)Of the priests: Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, and Jachin; 11 [b]Azariah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the (F)officer over the house of God; 12 Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashur, the son of Malchijah; Maasai the son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer; 13 and their brethren, heads of their fathers’ houses—one thousand seven hundred and sixty. They were [c]very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.
The Levites at Jerusalem
14 Of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari; 15 Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah the son of Micah, the son of (G)Zichri, the son of Asaph; 16 (H)Obadiah the son of (I)Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah the son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.
The Levite Gatekeepers
17 And the gatekeepers were Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and their brethren. Shallum was the chief. 18 Until then they had been gatekeepers for the camps of the children of Levi at the King’s Gate on the east.
19 Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, from his father’s house, the Korahites, were in charge of the work of the service, [d]gatekeepers of the tabernacle. Their fathers had been keepers of the entrance to the camp of the Lord. 20 And (J)Phinehas the son of Eleazar had been the officer over them in time past; the Lord was with him. 21 (K)Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was [e]keeper of the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
22 All those chosen as gatekeepers were two hundred and twelve. (L)They were recorded by their genealogy, in their villages. David and Samuel (M)the seer had appointed them to their trusted office. 23 So they and their children were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord, the house of the tabernacle, by assignment. 24 The gatekeepers were assigned to the four directions: the east, west, north, and south. 25 And their brethren in their villages had to come with them from time to time (N)for seven days. 26 For in this trusted office were four chief gatekeepers; they were Levites. And they had charge over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God. 27 And they lodged all around the house of God because [f]they had the (O)responsibility, and they were in charge of opening it every morning.
Other Levite Responsibilities
28 Now some of them were in charge of the serving vessels, for they brought them in and took them out by count. 29 Some of them were appointed over the furnishings and over all the implements of the sanctuary, and over the (P)fine flour and the wine and the oil and the incense and the spices. 30 And some of the sons of the priests made (Q)the ointment of the spices.
31 Mattithiah of the Levites, the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the trusted office (R)over the things that were baked in the pans. 32 And some of their brethren of the sons of the Kohathites (S)were in charge of preparing the showbread for every Sabbath.
33 These are (T)the singers, heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites, who lodged in the chambers, and were free from other duties; for they were employed in that work day and night. 34 These heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites were heads throughout their generations. They dwelt at Jerusalem.
The Family of King Saul
35 Jeiel the father of Gibeon, whose wife’s name was (U)Maacah, dwelt at Gibeon. 36 His firstborn son was Abdon, then Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab, 37 Gedor, Ahio, [g]Zechariah, and Mikloth. 38 And Mikloth begot [h]Shimeam. They also dwelt alongside their relatives in Jerusalem, with their brethren. 39 (V)Ner begot Kish, Kish begot Saul, and Saul begot Jonathan, Malchishua, Abinadab, and Esh-Baal. 40 The son of Jonathan was Merib-Baal, and Merib-Baal begot Micah. 41 The sons of Micah were Pithon, Melech, [i]Tahrea, (W)and[j] Ahaz. 42 And Ahaz begot [k]Jarah; Jarah begot Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begot Moza; 43 Moza begot Binea, [l]Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, and Azel his son.
44 And Azel had six sons whose names were these: Azrikam, Bocheru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah, and Hanan; these were the sons of Azel.

English Standard Version
A Genealogy of the Returned Exiles
9 So all Israel was recorded in genealogies, and these are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel. And (A)Judah was taken into exile in Babylon because of their breach of faith. 2 (B)Now the first to (C)dwell again in their possessions in their cities were Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the (D)temple servants. 3 And some of the people of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh lived in Jerusalem: 4 Uthai the son of Ammihud, son of Omri, son of Imri, son of Bani, from the sons of (E)Perez the son of Judah. 5 And of the Shilonites: Asaiah the firstborn, and his sons. 6 Of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel and their kinsmen, 690. 7 Of the Benjaminites: Sallu the son of Meshullam, son of Hodaviah, son of Hassenuah, 8 Ibneiah the son of Jeroham, Elah the son of Uzzi, son of Michri, and Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, son of Reuel, son of Ibnijah; 9 and their kinsmen according to their generations, (F)956. All these were heads of fathers' houses according (G)to their fathers' houses.
10 (H)Of the priests: Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, Jachin, 11 and Azariah the son of Hilkiah, son of Meshullam, son of Zadok, son of Meraioth, son of Ahitub, the (I)chief officer of the house of God; 12 and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, son of Pashhur, son of Malchijah, and Maasai the son of Adiel, son of Jahzerah, son of Meshullam, son of Meshillemith, son of Immer; 13 besides their kinsmen, heads of their fathers' houses, 1,760, mighty men for the work of the service of the house of God.
14 (J)Of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, son of Azrikam, son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari; 15 and Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal and Mattaniah the son of Mica, son of Zichri, son of Asaph; 16 and Obadiah the son of Shemaiah, son of Galal, son of Jeduthun, and Berechiah the son of Asa, son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.
17 The gatekeepers were Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and their kinsmen (Shallum was the chief); 18 until then they were (K)in the king's gate on the east side as the gatekeepers of the camps of the Levites. 19 Shallum the son of Kore, son of (L)Ebiasaph, son of Korah, and his kinsmen of his fathers' house, the (M)Korahites, were in charge of the work of the service, keepers of the thresholds of the tent, as their fathers had been in charge of the camp of the Lord, keepers of the entrance. 20 And (N)Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the chief officer over them in time past; the Lord was with him. 21 (O)Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 22 All these, who were chosen as gatekeepers at the thresholds, were 212. They were enrolled by genealogies in their villages. (P)David and Samuel (Q)the seer established them in their office of trust. 23 So they and their sons were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord, that is, the house of the tent, as guards. 24 The gatekeepers were on the four sides, east, west, north, and south. 25 And their kinsmen who were (R)in their villages were obligated to come (S)in every seven days, in turn, to be with these, 26 for the four chief gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted to be over (T)the chambers and the treasures of the house of God. 27 And they lodged around the house of God, for on them lay the duty of watching, and (U)they had charge of opening it every morning.
28 Some of them had charge of the utensils of service, for they were required to count them when they were brought in and taken out. 29 Others of them were appointed over the furniture and over all the holy utensils, also over the (V)fine flour, the wine, the oil, the incense, and the spices. 30 Others, of the sons of the priests, (W)prepared the mixing of the spices, 31 and Mattithiah, one of the Levites, the firstborn of (X)Shallum the (Y)Korahite, was entrusted with (Z)making the flat cakes. 32 Also some of their kinsmen of the Kohathites had (AA)charge of the showbread, to prepare it every Sabbath.
33 Now these, the (AB)singers, the heads of fathers' houses of the Levites, were in the chambers of the temple free from other service, for they were on duty day and night. 34 These were heads of fathers' houses of the Levites, according to their generations, leaders. These lived in Jerusalem.

The People in Jerusalem
The people of Judah were made prisoners and forced to go to Babylon. They were taken there because they were not faithful to God. 2 The first people to come back and live in their own lands and towns were some Israelites, priests, Levites, and servants who work in the Temple.

The Lord was with Phinehas. 21 Zechariah son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance to the Holy Tent.
22 In all there were 212 men who were chosen to guard the gates of the Holy Tent. Their names were written in their family histories in their small towns.

They also counted these dishes when they were taken out. 29 Other gatekeepers were chosen to care for the furniture and the special dishes. They also took care of the flour, wine, oil, incense, and special oil.[a] 30 But it was the priests who had the job of mixing the special oil.
