Ezra 8:1-20 NIV

[1] These are the family heads and those registered with them who came up with me from Babylon during the reign of King Artaxerxes: [2] of the descendants of Phinehas, Gershom; of the descendants of Ithamar, Daniel; of the descendants of David, Hattush [3] of the descendants of Shekaniah; of the descendants of Parosh, Zechariah, and with him were registered 150 men; [4] of the descendants of Pahath-Moab, Eliehoenai son of Zerahiah, and with him 200 men; [5] of the descendants of Zattu, Shekaniah son of Jahaziel, and with him 300 men; [6] of the descendants of Adin, Ebed son of Jonathan, and with him 50 men; [7] of the descendants of Elam, Jeshaiah son of Athaliah, and with him 70 men; [8] of the descendants of Shephatiah, Zebadiah son of Michael, and with him 80 men; [9] of the descendants of Joab, Obadiah son of Jehiel, and with him 218 men; [10] of the descendants of Bani, Shelomith son of Josiphiah, and with him 160 men; [11] of the descendants of Bebai, Zechariah son of Bebai, and with him 28 men; [12] of the descendants of Azgad, Johanan son of Hakkatan, and with him 110 men; [13] of the descendants of Adonikam, the last ones, whose names were Eliphelet, Jeuel and Shemaiah, and with them 60 men; [14] of the descendants of Bigvai, Uthai and Zakkur, and with them 70 men. [15] I assembled them at the canal that flows toward Ahava, and we camped there three days. When I checked among the people and the priests, I found no Levites there. [16] So I summoned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah and Meshullam, who were leaders, and Joiarib and Elnathan, who were men of learning, [17] and I ordered them to go to Iddo, the leader in Kasiphia. I told them what to say to Iddo and his fellow Levites, the temple servants in Kasiphia, so that they might bring attendants to us for the house of our God. [18] Because the gracious hand of our God was on us, they brought us Sherebiah, a capable man, from the descendants of Mahli son of Levi, the son of Israel, and Sherebiah’s sons and brothers, 18 in all; [19] and Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and nephews, 20 in all. [20] They also brought 220 of the temple servants—a body that David and the officials had established to assist the Levites. All were registered by name.
