Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
1Postquam autem ædificatus est murus, et posui valvas, et recensui janitores, et cantores, et Levitas,
2Then I put my brother Hanani in charge of Jerusalem, along with Hananiah the commander of the fortress, because he was a faithful man who feared God more than most.
2præcepi Hanani fratri meo, et Hananiæ principi domus de Jerusalem (ipse enim quasi vir verax et timens Deum plus ceteris videbatur),
3And I told them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the guards are on duty, keep the doors shut and securely fastened. And appoint the residents of Jerusalem as guards, some at their posts and some at their own homes.”
3et dixi eis: Non aperiantur portæ Jerusalem usque ad calorem solis. Cumque adhuc assisterent, clausæ portæ sunt, et oppilatæ: et posui custodes de habitatoribus Jerusalem, singulos per vices suas, et unumquemque contra domum suam.
4Now the city was large and spacious, but there were few people in it, and the houses had not yet been rebuilt.
4Civitas autem erat lata nimis et grandis, et populus parvus in medio ejus, et non erant domus ædificatæ.
5Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the people to be enrolled by genealogy. I found the genealogical register of those who had first returned, and I found the following written in it:
5Deus autem dedit in corde meo, et congregavi optimates, et magistratus, et vulgus, ut recenserem eos: et inveni librum census eorum qui ascenderant primum, et inventum est scriptum in eo.
6These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,
6Isti filii provinciæ, qui ascenderunt de captivitate migrantium, quos transtulerat Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, et reversi sunt in Jerusalem et in Judæam, unusquisque in civitatem suam.

61The following came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer, but could not prove that their families were descended from Israel:
61Hi sunt autem qui ascenderunt de Thelmela, Thelharsa, Cherub, Addon, et Emmer: et non potuerunt indicare domum patrum suorum, et semen suum, utrum ex Israël essent,

63And from among the priests: the descendants of Hobaiah, the descendants of Hakkoz, and the descendants of Barzillai (who had married a daughter of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called by their name).
63Et de sacerdotibus, filii Habia, filii Accos, filii Berzellai, qui accepit de filiabus Berzellai Galaaditis uxorem, et vocatus est nomine eorum.
64These men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
64Hi quæsierunt scripturam suam in censu, et non invenerunt: et ejecti sunt de sacerdotio.
65The governor ordered them not to eat the most holy things until there was a priest to consult the Urim and Thummim.
65Dixitque Athersatha eis ut non manducarent de Sanctis sanctorum, donec staret sacerdos doctus et eruditus.
66The whole assembly numbered 42,360,
66Omnis multitudo quasi vir unus quadraginta duo millia trecenti sexaginta,
67in addition to their 7,337 menservants and maidservants, as well as their 245 male and female singers.
67absque servis et ancillis eorum, qui erant septem millia trecenti triginta septem, et inter eos cantores et cantatrices, ducenti quadraginta quinque.
68They had 736 horses, 245 mules,
68Equi eorum, septingenti triginta sex: muli eorum, ducenti quadraginta quinque:
69435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.
69cameli eorum, quadringenti triginta quinque: asini, sex millia septingenti viginti.
70Some of the heads of the families contributed to the project. The governor gave to the treasury 1,000 darics of gold, 50 bowls, and 530 priestly garments.
70Nonnulli autem de principibus familiarum dederunt in opus. Athersatha dedit in thesaurum auri drachmas mille, phialas quinquaginta, tunicas sacerdotales quingentas triginta.
71And some of the heads of the families gave to the treasury for the project 20,000 darics of gold and 2,200 minas of silver.
71Et de principibus familiarum dederunt in thesaurum operis, auri drachmas viginti millia, et argenti mnas duo millia ducentas.
72The rest of the people gave a total of 20,000 darics of gold, 2,000 minas of silver, and 67 priestly garments.
72Et quod dedit reliquus populus, auri drachmas viginti millia, et argenti mnas duo millia, et tunicas sacerdotales sexaginta septem.
73So the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and temple servants, along with some of the people and the rest of the Israelites, settled in their own towns. And by the seventh month the Israelites had settled in their towns.
73Habitaverunt autem sacerdotes, et Levitæ, et janitores, et cantores, et reliquum vulgus, et Nathinæi, et omnis Israël, in civitatibus suis.
