Nehemiah 7

Or quando le mura furon riedificate ed io ebbi messo a posto le porte, e i portinai, i cantori e i Leviti furono stabiliti nei loro uffici,

Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,

io detti il comando di Gerusalemme ad Hanani, mio fratello, e ad Hanania governatore del castello, perch’era un uomo fedele e timorato di Dio più di tanti altri.

That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.

E dissi loro: "Le porte di Gerusalemme non s’aprano finché il sole scotti; e mentre le guardie saranno ancora al loro posto, si chiudano e si sbarrino le porte; e si stabiliscano per far la guardia, gli abitanti di Gerusalemme, ciascuno al suo turno e ciascuno davanti alla propria casa".

And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be over against his house.

Or la città era spaziosa e grande; ma dentro v’era poca gente, e non vi s’eran fabbricate case.

Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded.

E il mio Dio mi mise in cuore di radunare i notabili, i magistrati e il popolo, per farne il censimento. E trovai il registro genealogico di quelli ch’eran tornati dall’esilio la prima volta, e vi trovai scritto quanto segue:

And my God put into mine heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found written therein,

Questi son quei della provincia che tornarono dalla cattività; quelli che Nebucadnetsar, re di Babilonia, avea menati in cattività, e che tornarono a Gerusalemme e in Giuda, ciascuno nella sua città.
