Nehemiah 13:5-13
English Standard Version
5 prepared for Tobiah a large chamber where they had previously put the grain offering, the frankincense, the vessels, and the tithes of grain, wine, and oil, (A)which were given by commandment to the Levites, singers, and gatekeepers, and the contributions for the priests. 6 While this was taking place, I was not in Jerusalem, for (B)in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes (C)king of Babylon I went to the king. And after some time I asked leave of the king 7 and came to Jerusalem, and I then discovered the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, (D)preparing for him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. 8 And I was very angry, and I threw all the household furniture of Tobiah out of the chamber. 9 Then I gave orders, and they (E)cleansed the chambers, and I brought back there the vessels of the house of God, with the grain offering and the frankincense.
10 I also found out that (F)the portions of the Levites had not been given to them, so that the Levites and the singers, who did the work, had fled each (G)to his field. 11 (H)So I confronted the officials and said, (I)“Why is the house of God forsaken?” And I gathered them together and set them in their stations. 12 Then all Judah brought (J)the tithe of the grain, wine, and oil into the storehouses. 13 And (K)I appointed as treasurers over the storehouses Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites, and as their assistant Hanan the son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, (L)for they were considered reliable, and their duty was to distribute to their brothers.

5 and he had provided him with a large room formerly used to store the grain offerings and incense and temple articles, and also the tithes(A) of grain, new wine and olive oil prescribed for the Levites, musicians and gatekeepers, as well as the contributions for the priests.
6 But while all this was going on, I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes(B) king of Babylon I had returned to the king. Some time later I asked his permission 7 and came back to Jerusalem. Here I learned about the evil thing Eliashib(C) had done in providing Tobiah(D) a room in the courts of the house of God. 8 I was greatly displeased and threw all Tobiah’s household goods out of the room.(E) 9 I gave orders to purify the rooms,(F) and then I put back into them the equipment of the house of God, with the grain offerings and the incense.(G)
10 I also learned that the portions assigned to the Levites had not been given to them,(H) and that all the Levites and musicians responsible for the service had gone back to their own fields.(I) 11 So I rebuked the officials and asked them, “Why is the house of God neglected?”(J) Then I called them together and stationed them at their posts.
12 All Judah brought the tithes(K) of grain, new wine and olive oil into the storerooms.(L) 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.(M)

2 So I have provided for the house of my God, so far as I was able, the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, and the bronze for the things of bronze, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, besides great quantities of (A)onyx and stones for setting, antimony, colored stones, all sorts of precious stones and marble. 3 Moreover, in addition to all that I have provided for the holy house, I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, and because of my devotion to the house of my God I give it to the house of my God: 4 (B)3,000 talents[a] of gold, of the gold of (C)Ophir, and 7,000 talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the house,[b] 5 and for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself[c] today to the Lord?”
6 Then (D)the leaders of fathers' houses made their freewill offerings, as did also the leaders of the tribes, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and (E)the officers over the king's work. 7 They gave for the service of the house of God 5,000 talents and 10,000 (F)darics[d] of gold, 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of bronze and 100,000 talents of iron. 8 And whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the house of the Lord, in the care of (G)Jehiel the Gershonite. 9 Then the people rejoiced because they had given willingly, for with a (H)whole heart they had offered freely to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly.

6 He went out and (C)made war against the Philistines and broke through the wall of Gath and the wall of Jabneh and the wall of Ashdod, and he built cities in the territory of Ashdod and elsewhere among the Philistines. 7 God helped him (D)against the Philistines and against the Arabians who lived in Gurbaal and against the (E)Meunites. 8 The Ammonites (F)paid tribute to Uzziah, and his fame spread even to the border of Egypt, for he became very strong. 9 Moreover, Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at (G)the Corner Gate and at (H)the Valley Gate and at (I)the Angle, and fortified them. 10 And he built towers in the wilderness and (J)cut out many cisterns, for he had large herds, both in the Shephelah and in the plain, and he had farmers and vinedressers in the hills and in the fertile lands, for he loved the soil. 11 Moreover, Uzziah had an army of soldiers, fit for war, in divisions according to the numbers in the muster made by Jeiel the secretary and Maaseiah the officer, under the direction of Hananiah, one of the king's commanders.

9 Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate,(H) at the Valley Gate(I) and at the angle of the wall, and he fortified them. 10 He also built towers in the wilderness and dug many cisterns, because he had much livestock in the foothills and in the plain. He had people working his fields and vineyards in the hills and in the fertile lands, for he loved the soil.
11 Uzziah had a well-trained army, ready to go out by divisions according to their numbers as mustered by Jeiel the secretary and Maaseiah the officer under the direction of Hananiah, one of the royal officials.
