Nehemiah 13:10-14

New American Standard Bible

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.
