14 Utai y Zabud, de los descendientes de Bigvai, acompañados de setenta hombres.
Los sirvientes del templo
15 Yo, Esdras, los reuní a todos ellos junto al canal que va a dar al río Ahavá, y acampamos allí tres días. Y cuando pasé revista a la gente y a los sacerdotes, no encontré a ningún levita. 16 Por lo tanto envié a Eliézer, Ariel, Semaías, Elnatán, Jarib, Elnatán, Natán, Zacarías y Mesulam, que eran personas importantes, y también a los maestros Joiarib y Elnatán, 17 con la orden de visitar a Idó, jefe del lugar llamado Casifiá, y les dije todo lo que tenían que comunicar a Idó y sus compañeros, los sirvientes del templo que estaban en Casifiá, para que nos trajeran gente que nos ayudara en el templo de nuestro Dios. 18 Y, gracias a Dios, nos trajeron a Serebías, hombre muy capaz, descendiente de un levita llamado Mahli, con sus hijos y hermanos; dieciocho personas en total. 19 Además nos trajeron a Hasabías e Isaías, descendientes de Merarí, que con sus hijos y hermanos sumaban veinte personas.
20 De los sirvientes del templo puestos por David y los dirigentes al servicio de los levitas, había doscientos veinte, todos ellos nombrados personalmente.
21 Después proclamé un ayuno cerca del río Ahavá, para que reconociéramos nuestras faltas ante nuestro Dios, y para pedirle que nos llevara con bien a nosotros, nuestras familias y nuestras posesiones. 22 Pues me dio vergüenza pedirle al rey soldados de caballería para que nos protegieran del enemigo en el camino, ya que le habíamos dicho al rey que Dios protege a todos los que le buscan, pero que descarga su fuerza y su ira sobre todos los que le abandonan. 23 De modo que ayunamos y rogamos a Dios por todo esto, y él nos atendió.
24 Luego aparté a doce dirigentes de los sacerdotes: a Serebías, Hasabías y diez compañeros suyos, 25 y les pesé y entregué la plata, el oro y los utensilios que el rey y sus consejeros y oficiales y todos los israelitas allí presentes habían ofrecido como donativo para el templo de nuestro Dios. 26 Les pesé y entregué veintiún mil cuatrocientos cincuenta kilos de plata, cien utensilios de plata y tres mil trescientos kilos de oro; 27 además, veinte tazas de oro con un peso total de ocho kilos, y dos utensilios de bronce bruñido de primera calidad, tan valiosos como si fueran de oro.
28 Luego les dije: «Ustedes están consagrados al Señor, lo mismo que los utensilios. La plata y el oro son para el Señor, Dios de nuestros padres. 29 Tengan cuidado y guárdenlos hasta que los pesen en presencia de los jefes de los sacerdotes, y de los levitas y jefes de familia de Israel, en los cuartos del templo del Señor, en Jerusalén.» 30 Entonces los sacerdotes y los levitas recibieron la plata, el oro y los utensilios que habían sido pesados, y los llevaron a Jerusalén, al templo de nuestro Dios.
31 El día doce del mes primero nos marchamos del río Ahavá para dirigirnos a Jerusalén. Nuestro Dios nos ayudó, librándonos de enemigos y de bandidos en el camino. 32 Cuando llegamos a Jerusalén, descansamos tres días. 33 Al cuarto día se pesó la plata, el oro y los utensilios en el templo de nuestro Dios, y se entregó todo al sacerdote Meremot, hijo de Urías. Con él estaban Eleazar, hijo de Finees, y los levitas Jozabad, hijo de Josué, y Noadías, hijo de Binuy. 34 Aquel mismo día se pesó y contó todo, y se tomó nota de la carga.
35 Después, los desterrados que volvieron del exilio entregaron para los holocaustos al Dios de Israel, y en nombre de todos los israelitas, doce becerros, noventa y seis carneros, setenta y siete corderos y doce chivos para la ofrenda por el pecado. Todos fueron quemados en honor del Señor. 36 Luego entregaron la orden del rey a las autoridades del reino y a los gobernadores de la provincia al oeste del río Éufrates, los cuales apoyaron al pueblo y al templo de Dios.

The Return to Jerusalem
15 I assembled them at the canal that flows toward Ahava,(G) and we camped there three days. When I checked among the people and the priests, I found no Levites(H) there. 16 So I summoned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah and Meshullam, who were leaders, and Joiarib and Elnathan, who were men of learning, 17 and I ordered them to go to Iddo, the leader in Kasiphia. I told them what to say to Iddo and his fellow Levites, the temple servants(I) in Kasiphia, so that they might bring attendants to us for the house of our God. 18 Because the gracious hand of our God was on us,(J) they brought us Sherebiah,(K) a capable man, from the descendants of Mahli son of Levi, the son of Israel, and Sherebiah’s sons and brothers, 18 in all; 19 and Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and nephews, 20 in all. 20 They also brought 220 of the temple servants(L)—a body that David and the officials had established to assist the Levites. All were registered by name.
21 There, by the Ahava Canal,(M) I proclaimed a fast, so that we might humble ourselves before our God and ask him for a safe journey(N) for us and our children, with all our possessions. 22 I was ashamed to ask the king for soldiers(O) and horsemen to protect us from enemies on the road, because we had told the king, “The gracious hand of our God is on everyone(P) who looks to him, but his great anger is against all who forsake him.(Q)” 23 So we fasted(R) and petitioned our God about this, and he answered our prayer.
24 Then I set apart twelve of the leading priests, namely, Sherebiah,(S) Hashabiah and ten of their brothers, 25 and I weighed out(T) to them the offering of silver and gold and the articles that the king, his advisers, his officials and all Israel present there had donated for the house of our God. 26 I weighed out to them 650 talents[c] of silver, silver articles weighing 100 talents,[d] 100 talents[e] of gold, 27 20 bowls of gold valued at 1,000 darics,[f] and two fine articles of polished bronze, as precious as gold.
28 I said to them, “You as well as these articles are consecrated to the Lord.(U) The silver and gold are a freewill offering to the Lord, the God of your ancestors. 29 Guard them carefully until you weigh them out in the chambers of the house of the Lord in Jerusalem before the leading priests and the Levites and the family heads of Israel.” 30 Then the priests and Levites received the silver and gold and sacred articles that had been weighed out to be taken to the house of our God in Jerusalem.
31 On the twelfth day of the first month we set out from the Ahava Canal(V) to go to Jerusalem. The hand of our God was on us,(W) and he protected us from enemies and bandits along the way. 32 So we arrived in Jerusalem, where we rested three days.(X)
33 On the fourth day, in the house of our God, we weighed out(Y) the silver and gold and the sacred articles into the hands of Meremoth(Z) son of Uriah, the priest. Eleazar son of Phinehas was with him, and so were the Levites Jozabad(AA) son of Jeshua and Noadiah son of Binnui.(AB) 34 Everything was accounted for by number and weight, and the entire weight was recorded at that time.
35 Then the exiles who had returned from captivity sacrificed burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls(AC) for all Israel,(AD) ninety-six rams, seventy-seven male lambs and, as a sin offering,[g] twelve male goats.(AE) All this was a burnt offering to the Lord. 36 They also delivered the king’s orders(AF) to the royal satraps and to the governors of Trans-Euphrates,(AG) who then gave assistance to the people and to the house of God.(AH)

8 These are now the chief of their fathers, and this is the genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king.
2 Of the sons of Phinehas; Gershom: of the sons of Ithamar; Daniel: of the sons of David; Hattush.
3 Of the sons of Shechaniah, of the sons of Pharosh; Zechariah: and with him were reckoned by genealogy of the males an hundred and fifty.
4 Of the sons of Pahathmoab; Elihoenai the son of Zerahiah, and with him two hundred males.
5 Of the sons of Shechaniah; the son of Jahaziel, and with him three hundred males.
6 Of the sons also of Adin; Ebed the son of Jonathan, and with him fifty males.
7 And of the sons of Elam; Jeshaiah the son of Athaliah, and with him seventy males.
8 And of the sons of Shephatiah; Zebadiah the son of Michael, and with him fourscore males.
9 Of the sons of Joab; Obadiah the son of Jehiel, and with him two hundred and eighteen males.
10 And of the sons of Shelomith; the son of Josiphiah, and with him an hundred and threescore males.
11 And of the sons of Bebai; Zechariah the son of Bebai, and with him twenty and eight males.
12 And of the sons of Azgad; Johanan the son of Hakkatan, and with him an hundred and ten males.
13 And of the last sons of Adonikam, whose names are these, Eliphelet, Jeiel, and Shemaiah, and with them threescore males.
14 Of the sons also of Bigvai; Uthai, and Zabbud, and with them seventy males.
15 And I gathered them together to the river that runneth to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.
16 Then sent I for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, men of understanding.
17 And I sent them with commandment unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.
18 And by the good hand of our God upon us they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;
19 And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;
20 Also of the Nethinims, whom David and the princes had appointed for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinims: all of them were expressed by name.
21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
22 For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
23 So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was intreated of us.
24 Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
25 And weighed unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, even the offering of the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his lords, and all Israel there present, had offered:
26 I even weighed unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels an hundred talents, and of gold an hundred talents;
27 Also twenty basons of gold, of a thousand drams; and two vessels of fine copper, precious as gold.
28 And I said unto them, Ye are holy unto the Lord; the vessels are holy also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the Lord God of your fathers.
29 Watch ye, and keep them, until ye weigh them before the chief of the priests and the Levites, and chief of the fathers of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the Lord.
30 So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
31 Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.
32 And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.
33 Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;
34 By number and by weight of every one: and all the weight was written at that time.
35 Also the children of those that had been carried away, which were come out of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering unto the Lord.
36 And they delivered the king's commissions unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors on this side the river: and they furthered the people, and the house of God.
