1 Esdras 8:36-48

1. 36 Of the sons of Banid, Assalimoth son of Josaphias, and with him an hundred and threescore men:

2. 37 Of the sons of Babi, Zacharias son of Bebai, and with him twenty and eight men:

3. 38 Of the sons of Astath, Johannes son of Acatan, and with him an hundred and ten men:

4. 39 Of the sons of Adonikam the last, and these are the names of them, Eliphalet, Jewel, and Samaias, and with them seventy men:

5. 40 Of the sons of Bago, Uthi the son of Istalcurus, and with him seventy men.

6. 41 And these I gathered together to the river called Theras, where we pitched our tents three days: and then I surveyed them.

7. 42 But when I had found there none of the priests and Levites,

8. 43 Then sent I unto Eleazar, and Iduel, and Masman,

9. 44 And Alnathan, and Mamaias, and Joribas, and Nathan, Eunatan, Zacharias, and Mosollamon, principal men and learned.

10. 45 And I bade them that they should go unto Saddeus the captain, who was in the place of the treasury:

11. 46 And commanded them that they should speak unto Daddeus, and to his brethren, and to the treasurers in that place, to send us such men as might execute the priests' office in the house of the Lord.

12. 47 And by the mighty hand of our Lord they brought unto us skilful men of the sons of Moli the son of Levi, the son of Israel, Asebebia, and his sons, and his brethren, who were eighteen.

13. 48 And Asebia, and Annus, and Osaias his brother, of the sons of Channuneus, and their sons, were twenty men.
