Ezra Sends for Levites
15 Now I gathered them at (A)the river that runs to Ahava, where we camped for three days. And I [a]observed the people and the priests, but I (B)did not find any Levites there. 16 So I sent for Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, [b]chief men, and for Joiarib and Elnathan, teachers. 17 I sent them out to Iddo the [c]chief man at the place Casiphia; and I put words in their mouths to say to [d]Iddo and his brothers, (C)the temple servants at the place Casiphia, that is, to bring ministers to us for the house of our God.
