10 And then I came to learn that the food of the Levites had not been given to them, so that the Levites and the singers, the doers of the work, had gone back each to his field.

11 So I quarreled with the prefects, and I said, "Why is the house of God forsaken?" And I gathered them and set them at their station.

12 So all of Judah brought the tithe of grain, new wine, and olive oil into the storehouses.

13 I appointed as treasurer over the storehouses Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, Pedaiah from the Levites, and as their hand Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for they were considered faithful. [The responsibility given] to them was to distribute to their brothers.

14 Remember me, my God, concerning this, and do not wipe out my loyal acts which I have done in the house of my God and in his service.
