1 Estos son los sacerdotes y los levitas que regresaron con Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, y con Jesúa: Seraías, Jeremías, Esdras, 2 Amarías, Maluc, Hatús, 3 Secanías, Rehum, Meremot, 4 Iddo, Ginetón, Abías, 5 Mijamín, Maadías, Bilga, 6 Semaías, Joiarib, Jedaías, 7 Salú, Amoc, Hilcías y Jedaías. Estos eran los jefes de los sacerdotes y de sus hermanos en tiempos de Jesúa. 8 Los levitas eran Jesúa, Binúi, Cadmiel, Serebías, Judá y Matanías, quien estaba a cargo de los cantos de acción de gracias junto con sus hermanos. 9 Bacbuquías y Uni, sus hermanos, estaban frente a ellos durante sus turnos de servicio. 10 Jesúa fue padre de Joiacim; Joiacim fue padre de Eliasib; Eliasib fue padre de Joiada; 11 Joiada fue padre de Jonatán, y Jonatán fue padre de Jadúa. 12 En tiempos de Joiacim, estos eran los sacerdotes jefes de familia: de la familia de Seraías, Meraías; de Jeremías, Hananías; 13 de Esdras, Mesulam; de Amarías, Johanán; 14 de Maluc, Jonatán; de Sebanías, José; 15 de Harim, Adna; de Meraiot, Helcai; 16 de Iddo, Zacarías; de Ginetón, Mesulam; 17 de Abías, Zicri; de Miniamín; de Moadías, Piltai; 18 de Bilga, Samúa; de Semaías, Jonatán; 19 de Joiarib, Matenai; de Jedaías, Uzi; 20 de Salai, Calai; de Amoc, Eber; 21 de Hilcías, Hasabías; de Jedaías, Natanael. 22 Los jefes de las familias levíticas fueron registrados en los días de Eliasib, Joiada, Johanán y Jadúa; y los jefes de las familias sacerdotales, durante el reinado de Darío el persa. 23 Los descendientes de Leví que eran jefes de familia quedaron registrados en el libro de las crónicas hasta los días de Johanán, hijo de Eliasib. 24 Los jefes de los levitas eran Hasabías, Serebías y Jesúa, hijo de Cadmiel, junto con sus hermanos frente a ellos. Alababan y daban gracias, un grupo respondiendo al otro, conforme a lo ordenado por David, el hombre de Dios. 25 Matanías, Bacbuquías, Abdías, Mesulam, Talmón y Acub eran porteros que vigilaban los almacenes junto a las puertas. 26 Ellos sirvieron en tiempos de Joiacim, hijo de Jesúa, hijo de Josadac, y en tiempos de Nehemías el gobernador y de Esdras, el sacerdote y escriba. 27 Para la dedicación de la muralla de Jerusalén, buscaron a los levitas en todos los lugares donde vivían y los llevaron a Jerusalén para celebrar con alegría, acción de gracias y cantos, acompañados de címbalos, arpas y liras. 28 También se reunieron los cantores de los alrededores de Jerusalén y de las aldeas de los netofatitas, 29 de Bet-gilgal y de los campos de Geba y Azmavet, porque los cantores habían construido aldeas alrededor de Jerusalén. 30 Los sacerdotes y los levitas se purificaron; luego purificaron al pueblo, las puertas y la muralla. 31 Entonces hice subir a los jefes de Judá a la muralla y organicé dos grandes grupos que daban gracias. Uno avanzó por la muralla hacia la derecha, en dirección a la Puerta del Basurero. 32 Detrás de ellos iban Osaías y la mitad de los jefes de Judá, 33 junto con Azarías, Esdras, Mesulam, 34 Judá, Benjamín, Semaías y Jeremías. 35 También iban algunos sacerdotes con trompetas: Zacarías, hijo de Jonatán, hijo de Semaías, hijo de Matanías, hijo de Micaías, hijo de Zacur, hijo de Asaf, 36 y sus hermanos Semaías, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Natanael, Judá y Hananí, con los instrumentos musicales de David, el hombre de Dios. Esdras el escriba iba al frente. 37 Al llegar a la Puerta de la Fuente, subieron directamente por las escaleras de la Ciudad de David, por la subida de la muralla, pasaron por encima de la casa de David y llegaron hasta la Puerta del Agua, al este. 38 El otro grupo que daba gracias fue hacia la izquierda. Yo lo seguí con la mitad del pueblo por la muralla, pasando la Torre de los Hornos hasta la Muralla Ancha. 39 Pasaron por la Puerta de Efraín, la Puerta Vieja, la Puerta del Pescado, la Torre de Hananel y la Torre de los Cien, hasta la Puerta de las Ovejas. Se detuvieron en la Puerta de la Guardia. 40 Los dos grupos que daban gracias tomaron sus lugares en el templo de Dios. Yo también estaba allí con la mitad de los jefes que me acompañaban. 41 También estaban los sacerdotes Eliacim, Maasías, Miniamín, Micaías, Elioenai, Zacarías y Hananías, con sus trompetas; 42 y Maasías, Semaías, Eleazar, Uzi, Johanán, Malquías, Elam y Ezer. Los cantores cantaron con fuerza bajo la dirección de Jezraías. 43 Ese día ofrecieron grandes sacrificios y se alegraron, porque Dios les había dado una gran alegría. También se alegraron las mujeres y los niños, y la alegría de Jerusalén se oyó desde muy lejos. 44 Ese mismo día se nombraron hombres encargados de los almacenes donde se guardaban las ofrendas elevadas, los primeros frutos y los diezmos. Allí debían reunir, de los campos de cada ciudad, las porciones que la ley asignaba a los sacerdotes y a los levitas, porque Judá se alegraba por los sacerdotes y los levitas que cumplían su servicio. 45 Ellos cumplían el servicio de su Dios y el servicio de purificación; los cantores y los porteros también cumplían sus funciones, conforme a lo ordenado por David y por su hijo Salomón. 46 Desde los días de David y Asaf había directores de los cantores y cantos de alabanza y acción de gracias a Dios. 47 En tiempos de Zorobabel y de Nehemías, todo Israel daba cada día lo que correspondía a los cantores y a los porteros. También apartaban como santa la parte destinada a los levitas, y los levitas apartaban como santa la parte destinada a los descendientes de Aarón.
