Nehemiah 7:69–8:1

⁶⁹camels, four hundred thirty and five; asses, six thousand seven hundred and twenty. ⁷⁰And from the extremity of the heads of the fathers they have given to the work; the Tirshatha hath given to the treasure, of gold, drams a thousand, bowls fifty, priests’ coats thirty and five hundred. ⁷¹And of the heads of the fathers they have given to the treasure of the work, of gold, drams two myriads, and of silver, pounds two thousand and two hundred. ⁷²And that which the rest of the people have given is of gold, drams two myriads, and of silver, pounds two thousand, and of priests coats, sixty and seven. ⁷³And they dwell—the priests, and the Levites, and the gatekeepers, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel—in their cities, and the seventh month cometh, and the sons of Israel are in their cities.

Chapter 8
