1
The princes of the people lived in Yerushalayim: the rest of the people also cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Yerushalayim the set-apart city, and nine parts in the other cities.
2
The people blessed all the men who willingly offered themselves to dwell in Yerushalayim.
3
Now these are the chiefs of the province who lived in Yerushalayim; but in the cities of Yehudah everyone lived in his possession in their cities: Yisra’el, the kohenim, and the Leviyim, and the Netinim, and the children of Shəlomah's servants.
4
In Yerushalayim lived certain of the children of Yehudah, and of the children of Binyamin. Of the children of Yehudah: Athaiah the son of Uzziah, the son of Zekharyahu, the son of Amariah, the son of Shephatiah, the son of Mahalalel, of the children of Perez;

18
All the Leviyim in the set-apart city were two hundred eighty-four.
19
Moreover the gatekeepers, Akkub, Talmon, and their brothers, who kept watch at the gates, were one hundred seventy-two.
20
The residue of Yisra’el, of the kohenim, the Leviyim, were in all the cities of Yehudah, everyone in his inheritance.
21
But the Netinim lived in Ophel: and Ziha and Gishpa were over the Netinim.
22
The overseer also of the Leviyim at Yerushalayim was Uzzi the son of Bani, the son of Chashavyah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Mica, of the sons of Asaf, the singers, over the business of the House of Elohim.
23
For there was a commandment from the king concerning them, and a settled provision for the singers, as every day required.
24
Pethahiah the son of Meshezabel, of the children of Zerah the son of Yehudah, was at the king's hand in all matters concerning the people.
25
As for the villages, with their fields, some of the children of Yehudah lived in Kiriath Arba and its towns, and in Dibon and its towns, and in Yekabzeel and its villages,
