Nehemiah 13:10-14
Christian Standard Bible
10 I also found out that because the portions for the Levites had not been given,(A) each of the Levites and the singers performing the service had gone back to his own field.(B) 11 Therefore, I rebuked the officials, asking, “Why has the house of God been neglected?” (C) I gathered the Levites and singers together and stationed them at their posts.(D) 12 Then all Judah brought a tenth of the grain, new wine, and fresh oil into the storehouses.(E) 13 I appointed as treasurers over the storehouses the priest Shelemiah, the scribe Zadok, and Pedaiah of the Levites, with Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah to assist them, because they were considered trustworthy.(F) They were responsible for the distribution to their colleagues.(G)
14 Remember me for this, my God, and don’t erase the deeds of faithful love I have done for the house of my God and for its services.(H)

Tithes Restored
10 I also [a]discovered that (A)the portions of the Levites had not been given to them, so the Levites and the singers who performed the service had [b]gone away, (B)each to his own field. 11 So I [c](C)reprimanded the officials and said, “(D)Why has the house of God been neglected?” Then I gathered them together and stationed them at their posts. 12 All Judah then brought (E)the tithe of the grain, wine, and oil into the storehouses. 13 To be in charge of the storehouses, I appointed Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah from the Levites, and in addition to them was Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah; for (F)they were considered reliable, and it was [d]their task to distribute to their kinsmen. 14 (G)Remember me for this, my God, and do not wipe out my loyal deeds which I have performed for the house of my God and its services.

Nehemiah 13:10-14
New International Version
10 I also learned that the portions assigned to the Levites had not been given to them,(A) and that all the Levites and musicians responsible for the service had gone back to their own fields.(B) 11 So I rebuked the officials and asked them, “Why is the house of God neglected?”(C) Then I called them together and stationed them at their posts.
12 All Judah brought the tithes(D) of grain, new wine and olive oil into the storerooms.(E) 13 I put Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and a Levite named Pedaiah in charge of the storerooms and made Hanan son of Zakkur, the son of Mattaniah, their assistant, because they were considered trustworthy. They were made responsible for distributing the supplies to their fellow Levites.(F)
14 Remember(G) me for this, my God, and do not blot out what I have so faithfully done for the house of my God and its services.
