59 The following came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer, but they were unable to demonstrate that their family or their descent was from Israel:

60 the family of Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda, 652

61 and of the family of the priests: the family of Habaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai (who had married one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called by their name).

62 They looked for their entries in the genealogical records, but they were not found there, so they were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.

63 The governor ordered them not to eat of the most holy food until a priest arose who could consult Urim and Thummim.

64 The whole assembly together totaled 42,360,

65 not including their 7,337 male and female servants; they also had 200 male and female singers,

66 736 horses, 245 mules,

67 435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.

68 When they arrived at the LORD's house in Jerusalem, some of the heads of the families brought spontaneous gifts for the rebuilding of God's house on its site.

69 According to their means, they gave to the building fund 61,000 drachmen of gold, 5,000 manehs of silver, and 100 priestly robes.

70 The priests, the Levites, some of the people, the singers, the gatekeepers, and the temple servants settled in their own towns, and all Israel in their towns.

58 Temple support staff and Solomon's servants added up to 392.

59 These are those who came from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Kerub, Addon, and Immer. They weren't able to prove their ancestry, whether they were true Israelites or not:

60 Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda, 652 in all.

61 Likewise with these priestly families: Hobaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai, who had married a daughter of Barzillai the Gileadite and took that name.

62 They had thoroughly searched for their family records but couldn't find them. And so they were barred from priestly work as ritually unclean.

63 The governor ruled that they could not eat from the holy food until a priest could determine their status with the Urim and Thummim.

64 The total count for the congregation was 42,360.

65 That did not include the male and female slaves, which numbered 7,337. There were also 200 male and female singers,

66 and they had 736 horses, 245 mules,

67 435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.

68 Some of the heads of families, on arriving at The Temple of God in Jerusalem, made Freewill-Offerings toward the rebuilding of The Temple of God on its site.

69 They gave to the building fund as they were able, about 1,100 pounds of gold, about three tons of silver, and 100 priestly robes.

70 The priests, Levites, and some of the people lived in Jerusalem. The singers, security guards, and temple support staff found places in their hometowns. All the Israelites found a place to live.
