70 The priests, the Levites, the musicians, the gatekeepers and the temple servants settled in their own towns, along with some of the other people, and the rest of the Israelites settled in their towns.

58 The total number of descendants of the temple workmen and of Solomon's servants who returned from exile was 392.

59 There were 652 belonging to the clans of Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda who returned from the towns of Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer;

60 but they could not prove that they were descendants of Israelites.

61 The following priestly clans could find no record to prove their ancestry: Habaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai. (The ancestor of the priestly clan of Barzillai had married a woman from the clan of Barzillai of Gilead and had taken the name of his father-in-law's clan.)

62 Since they were unable to prove who their ancestors were, they were not accepted as priests.

63 The Jewish governor told them that they could not eat the food offered to God until there was a priest who could use the Urim and Thummim.

64 Total number of exiles who returned - 42,360

65 Their male and female servants - 7,337

66 Male and female musicians - 200

67 Horses - 736 Mules - 245 Camels - 435 Donkeys - 6,720

68 When the exiles arrived at the Lord's Temple in Jerusalem, some of the leaders of the clans gave freewill offerings to help rebuild the Temple on its old site.

69 They gave as much as they could for this work, and the total came to 500 kilogrammes of gold, 2,800 kilogrammes of silver, and 100 robes for priests.

70 The priests, the Levites, and some of the people settled in or near Jerusalem; the musicians, the temple guards, and the temple workmen settled in nearby towns; and the rest of the Israelites settled in the towns where their ancestors had lived.
