When I found there none of the descendants of the priests or of the Levites,
43
I sent word to Eliezar, Iduel, Maasmas,
44
Elnathan, Shemaiah, Jarib, Nathan, Elnathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, who were leaders and men of understanding;
45
I told them to go to Iddo, who was the leading man at the place of the treasury,
46
and ordered them to tell Iddo and his kindred and the treasurers at that place to send us men to serve as priests in the house of our Lord.
