Nehemiah 13:1 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 On that day there was read in the book of Moses, in the ears of the people, and it hath been found written in it that an Ammonite and Moabite doth not come into the assembly of God -- unto the age,
2 because they have not come before the sons of Israel with bread and with water, and hire against them Balaam to revile them, and our God turneth the reviling into a blessing.
3 And it cometh to pass, at their hearing the law, that they separate all the mixed people from Israel.
4 And before this Eliashib the priest, appointed over chambers of the house of our God, is a relation of Tobiah,
5 and he maketh for him a great chamber, and there they were formerly putting the present, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithe of the corn, the new wine, and the oil -- the commanded thing of the Levites, and the singers, and the gatekeepers -- and the heave-offering of the priests.
6 And during all this I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty and second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon did I come unto the king, and at the end of days I have asked of the king,
7 and I come in to Jerusalem, and understand concerning the evil that Eliashib hath done for Tobiah, to make to him a chamber in the courts of the house of God,
8 and it is very displeasing to me, and I cast all the vessels of the house of Tobiah without, out of the chamber,
9 and I speak, and they cleanse the chambers, and I bring back thither the vessels of the house of God with the present and the frankincense.
10 And I know that the portions of the Levites have not been given, and they flee each to his field -- the Levites and the singers, doing the work.
11 And I strive with the prefects, and say, `Wherefore hath the house of God been forsaken?` and I gather them, and set them on their station;
12 and all Judah have brought in the tithe of the corn, and of the new wine, and of the oil, to the treasuries.
13 And I appoint treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites; and by their hand is Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for stedfast they have been reckoned, and on them it is to give a portion to their brethren.
14 Be mindful of me, O my God, for this, and do not blot out my kind acts that I have done, for the house of my God, and for its charges.
15 In those days I have seen in Judah those treading wine-vats on sabbath, and bringing in the sheaves, and lading on the asses, and also, wine, grapes, and figs, and every burden, yea, they are bringing in to Jerusalem on the sabbath-day, and I testify in the day of their selling provision.
16 And the Tyrians have dwelt in it, bringing in fish, and every ware, and selling on sabbath to the sons of Judah and in Jerusalem.
17 And I strive with the freemen of Judah, and say to them, `What is this evil thing that ye are doing, and polluting the sabbath-day?
18 Thus did not your fathers do? and our God bringeth in on us all this evil, and on this city, and ye are adding fierceness on Israel, to pollute the sabbath.`
19 And it cometh to pass, when the gates of Jerusalem have been dark before the sabbath, that I speak, and the doors are shut, and I say, that they do not open them till after the sabbath; and of my servants I have stationed at the gates; there doth not come in a burden on the sabbath-day.
20 And they lodge -- the merchants and sellers of all ware -- at the outside of Jerusalem, once or twice,
21 and I testify against them, and say unto them, `Wherefore are ye lodging over-against the wall? if ye repeat it, a hand I put forth upon you;` from that time they have not come in on the sabbath.
22 And I say to the Levites, that they be cleansed, and, coming in, keeping the gates, to sanctify the sabbath-day. Also, this, remember for me, O my God, and have pity on me, according to the abundance of Thy kindness.
23 Also, in those days, I have seen the Jews who have settled women of Ashdod, of Ammon, of Moab.
24 And of their sons, half are speaking Ashdoditish -- and are not knowing to speak Jewish -- and according to the language of people and people.
25 And I strive with them, and declare them vile, and smite certain of them, and pluck off their hair, and cause them to swear by God, `Ye do not give your daughters to their sons, nor do ye take of their daughters to your sons, and to yourselves.
26 `By these did not Solomon king of Israel sin? and among the many nations there was no king like him, and beloved by his God he was, and God maketh him king over all Israel -- even him did the strange women cause to sin.
27 And to you do we hearken to do all this great evil, to trespass against our God, to settle strange women?`
28 And one of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest, is son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite, and I cause him to flee from off me.
29 Be mindful of them, O my God, for the redeemed of the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.
30 And I have cleansed them from every stranger, and appoint charges to priests and to Levites, each in his work,
31 and for the wood-offering at appointed times, and for first-fruits. Be mindful of me, O my God, for good.
1 On that H1931 day H3117 they read H7121 in the book H5612 of Moses H4872 in the audience H241 of the people; H5971 and therein was found H4672 written, H3789 that H834 the Ammonite H5984 and the Moabite H4125 should not H3808 come H935 into the congregation H6951 of God H430 forever H5704 H5769 ;
2 Because H3588 they met H6923 not H3808 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 with bread H3899 and with water, H4325 but hired H7936 H853 Balaam H1109 against H5921 them , that he should curse H7043 them : howbeit our God H430 turned H2015 the curse H7045 into a blessing. H1293
3 Now it came to pass, H1961 when they had heard H8085 H853 the law, H8451 that they separated H914 from Israel H4480 H3478 all H3605 the mixed multitude. H6154
4 And before H6440 this H4480 H2088 , Eliashib H475 the priest, H3548 having the oversight H5414 of the chamber H3957 of the house H1004 of our God, H430 was allied H7138 unto Tobiah: H2900
5 And he had prepared H6213 for him a great H1419 chamber, H3957 where H8033 formerly H6440 H1961 they laid H5414 H853 the meat offerings, H4503 the frankincense, H3828 and the vessels, H3627 and the tithes H4643 of the corn, H1715 the new wine, H8492 and the oil, H3323 which was commanded H4687 to be given to the Levites, H3881 and the singers, H7891 and the porters; H7778 and the offerings H8641 of the priests. H3548
6 But in all H3605 this H2088 time was H1961 not H3808 I at Jerusalem: H3389 for H3588 in the two H8147 and thirtieth H7970 year H8141 of Artaxerxes H783 king H4428 of Babylon H894 came H935 I unto H413 the king, H4428 and after H7093 certain days H3117 obtained I leave H7592 of H4480 the king: H4428
7 And I came H935 to Jerusalem, H3389 and understood H995 of the evil H7451 that H834 Eliashib H475 did H6213 for Tobiah, H2900 in preparing H6213 him a chamber H5393 in the courts H2691 of the house H1004 of God. H430
8 And it grieved H7489 me sore: H3966 therefore I cast forth H7993 H853 all H3605 the household H1004 stuff H3627 of Tobiah H2900 out H2351 of H4480 the chamber. H3957
9 Then I commanded, H559 and they cleansed H2891 the chambers: H3957 and thither H8033 brought I again H7725 the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of God, H430 with H854 the meat offering H4503 and the frankincense. H3828
10 And I perceived H3045 that H3588 the portions H4521 of the Levites H3881 had not H3808 been given H5414 them : for the Levites H3881 and the singers, H7891 that did H6213 the work, H4399 were fled H1272 every one H376 to his field. H7704
11 Then contended H7378 I with H854 the rulers, H5461 and said, H559 Why H4069 is the house H1004 of God H430 forsaken H5800 ? And I gathered them together, H6908 and set H5975 them in H5921 their place. H5977
12 Then brought H935 all H3605 Judah H3063 the tithe H4643 of the corn H1715 and the new wine H8492 and the oil H3323 unto the treasuries. H214
13 And I made treasurers H686 over H5921 the treasuries, H214 Shelemiah H8018 the priest, H3548 and Zadok H6659 the scribe, H5608 and of H4480 the Levites, H3881 Pedaiah: H6305 and next to H5921 H3027 them was Hanan H2605 the son H1121 of Zaccur, H2139 the son H1121 of Mattaniah: H4983 for H3588 they were counted H2803 faithful, H539 and their office H5921 was to distribute H2505 unto their brethren. H251
14 Remember H2142 me , O my God, H430 concerning H5921 this, H2063 and wipe not out H4229 H408 my good deeds H2617 that H834 I have done H6213 for the house H1004 of my God, H430 and for the offices H4929 thereof.
15 In those H1992 days H3117 saw H7200 I in Judah H3063 some treading H1869 wine presses H1660 on the sabbath, H7676 and bringing in H935 sheaves, H6194 and lading H6006 H5921 asses; H2543 as also H637 wine, H3196 grapes, H6025 and figs, H8384 and all H3605 manner of burdens, H4853 which they brought into H935 Jerusalem H3389 on the sabbath H7676 day: H3117 and I testified H5749 against them in the day H3117 wherein they sold H4376 victuals. H6718
16 There dwelt H3427 men of Tyre H6876 also therein , which brought H935 fish, H1709 and all H3605 manner of ware, H4377 and sold H4376 on the sabbath H7676 unto the children H1121 of Judah, H3063 and in Jerusalem. H3389
17 Then I contended H7378 with H854 the nobles H2715 of Judah, H3063 and said H559 unto them, What H4100 evil H7451 thing H1697 is this H2088 that H834 ye H859 do, H6213 and profane H2490 H853 the sabbath H7676 day H3117 ?
18 Did H6213 not H3808 your fathers H1 thus, H3541 and did not our God H430 bring H935 H853 all H3605 this H2063 evil H7451 upon H5921 us , and upon H5921 this H2063 city H5892 ? yet ye H859 bring more H3254 wrath H2740 upon H5921 Israel H3478 by profaning H2490 H853 the sabbath. H7676
19 And it came to pass, H1961 that when H834 the gates H8179 of Jerusalem H3389 began to be dark H6751 before H6440 the sabbath, H7676 I commanded H559 that the gates H1817 should be shut, H5462 and charged H559 that H834 they should not H3808 be opened H6605 till H5704 after H310 the sabbath: H7676 and some of my servants H4480 H5288 set H5975 I at H5921 the gates, H8179 that there should no H3808 burden H4853 be brought in H935 on the sabbath H7676 day. H3117
20 So the merchants H7402 and sellers H4376 of all H3605 kind of ware H4465 lodged H3885 without H4480 H2351 Jerusalem H3389 once H6471 or twice. H8147
21 Then I testified H5749 against them , and said H559 unto H413 them, Why H4069 lodge H3885 ye H859 about H5048 the wall H2346 ? if H518 ye do so again, H8138 I will lay H7971 hands H3027 on you. From H4480 that H1931 time H6256 forth came H935 they no H3808 more on the sabbath. H7676
22 And I commanded H559 the Levites H3881 that H834 they should H1961 cleanse themselves, H2891 and that they should come H935 and keep H8104 the gates, H8179 to sanctify H6942 H853 the sabbath H7676 day. H3117 Remember H2142 me , O my God, H430 concerning this H2063 also, H1571 and spare H2347 H5921 me according to the greatness H7230 of thy mercy. H2617
23 In those H1992 days H3117 also H1571 saw H7200 I H853 Jews H3064 that had married H3427 wives H802 of Ashdod, H796 of Ammon, H5984 and of Moab: H4125
24 And their children H1121 spoke H1696 half H2677 in the speech of Ashdod, H797 and could H5234 not H369 speak H1696 in the Jews' language, H3066 but according to the language H3956 of each H5971 people. H5971
25 And I contended H7378 with H5973 them , and cursed H7043 them , and smote H5221 certain H376 of H4480 them , and plucked off their hair, H4803 and made them swear H7650 by God, H430 saying , Ye shall not H518 give H5414 your daughters H1323 unto their sons, H1121 nor H518 take H5375 their daughters H4480 H1323 unto your sons, H1121 or for yourselves.
26 Did not H3808 Solomon H8010 king H4428 of Israel H3478 sin H2398 by H5921 these things H428 ? yet among many H7227 nations H1471 was H1961 there no H3808 king H4428 like him, H3644 who was H1961 beloved H157 of his God, H430 and God H430 made H5414 him king H4428 over H5921 all H3605 Israel: H3478 nevertheless H1571 even him did outlandish H5237 women H802 cause to sin. H2398
27 Shall we then hearken H8085 unto you to do H6213 H853 all H3605 this H2063 great H1419 evil, H7451 to transgress H4603 against our God H430 in marrying H3427 strange H5237 wives H802 ?
28 And one of the sons H4480 H1121 of Joiada, H3111 the son H1121 of Eliashib H475 the high H1419 priest, H3548 was son in law H2860 to Sanballat H5571 the Horonite: H2772 therefore I chased H1272 him from H4480 H5921 me.
29 Remember H2142 them , O my God, H430 because H5921 they have defiled H1352 the priesthood, H3550 and the covenant H1285 of the priesthood, H3550 and of the Levites. H3881
30 Thus cleansed H2891 I them from all H4480 H3605 strangers, H5236 and appointed H5975 the wards H4931 of the priests H3548 and the Levites, H3881 every one H376 in his business; H4399
31 And for the wood H6086 offering, H7133 at times H6256 appointed, H2163 and for the firstfruits. H1061 Remember H2142 me , O my God, H430 for good. H2896
