12 1 The Priests and Levites which came with Zerubbabel unto Jerusalem, are numbered, 27 and the wall is dedicated.

10 And Jeshua begat Joiakim: Joiakim also begat Eliashib, and Eliashib begat Joiada.

23 The sons of Levi, the chief fathers were written in the book of the Chronicles even unto the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.

24 And the chief of the Levites were Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, and their brethren about them to give praise and thanks, according to the ordinances of David the man of God, ward over [g]against ward.

25 Mattaniah and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon and Akkub were porters keeping the ward at the thresholds of the gates.

26 These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the captain, and of Ezra the Priest and Scribe.
