58 All the Nathinim and the children of Shalumah’s servants were three hundred and ninety-two.

59 And these were the ones who came up from Tal Malah, Tal Harsha, Charub, Addan, and Immar; but they could not identify their father’s house or their genealogy, whether they were of Yashar'AL: 

60 the sons of Dalayahu, the sons of Tubiyahu, and the sons of Nakuda, six hundred and fifty-two; 

61 and of the sons of the Kuhanym: the sons of Habayah, the sons of Kuz, and the sons of Barzillyahu, who took a wife of the daughters of Barzillyahu the Gilaadite, and was called by their name. 

62 These sought their listing among those who were registered by genealogy, but they were not found; therefore they were excluded from the Kuhanhood as defiled. 

63 And the governor said to them that they should not eat of the most Qadash things till a Kuhan could consult with the Urim and Thummim.

64 The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand three hundred and sixty,

65 besides their male and female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred and thirty-seven; and they had two hundred men and women singers. 

66 Their horses were seven hundred and thirty-six, their mules two hundred and forty-five, 

67 their camels four hundred and thirty-five, and their donkeys six thousand seven hundred and twenty.

68 Some of the heads of the fathers’ houses, when they came to the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH which is in Yahushalam, offered freely for the house of 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, to erect it in its place: 

69 According to their ability, they gave to the treasury for the work sixty-one thousand gold drachmas, five thousand minas of silver, and one hundred Kuhanym garments.

70 So the Kuhanym and the Lauym, some of the people, the singers, the gatekeepers, and the Nathinim, dwelt in their cities, and all Yashar'AL in their cities.
