⁶² These men searched their family records, but their names could not be found written there; hence they were degraded from the priesthood,

⁶³ and His Excellency ordered them not to partake of the most holy foods until there should be a priest bearing the Urim and Thummim.

⁶⁴ The entire assembly taken together came to forty-two thousand three hundred and sixty,

⁶⁵ not counting their male and female slaves, who were seven thousand three hundred and thirty-seven. They also had two hundred male and female singers.

⁶⁹ According to their means they contributed to the treasury for the temple service: sixty-one thousand drachmas of gold, five thousand minas of silver, and one hundred garments for the priests.

⁷⁰ The priests, the Levites, and some of the common people took up residence in Jerusalem; but the singers, the gatekeepers, and the temple slaves dwelt in their cities. Thus all the Israelites dwelt in their cities.
