1Now it happened, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
1Zvino rusvingo rwakati rwavakwa, ini ndatimika magonhi, uye varindi vemikova, navaimbi, navaRevhi, vagadzwa,
2that I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the castle, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
2ndikagadza Hanani munin'ina wangu, naHanania mubati wenhare, vave vatariri veJerusaremu; nekuti akanga ari munhu akatendeka, achitya Mwari kupfuura vazhinji.
3I said to them, “Don’t let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house.”
3Ndikati kwavari, Masuwo eJerusaremu ngaarege kuzarurwa kusvikira zuva rapisa; zvino varindi vachimirepo, ngavapfige mikova, imwi mugoikiya; munofanira kugadzawo varindi pakati pavagere Jerusaremu, mumwe nomumwe paanofanira kurindira, mumwe nomumwe pakatarisana neimba yake.
4Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
4Zvino guta rakanga riri bamhi rakakura; asi vanhu vaivamo vashoma; uye dzimba dzakanga dzichigere kuvakwa.
5My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found written therein:
5Ipapo Mwari wangu akaisa mufungo pamoyo pangu kuti ndikokere vakuru navatariri, navanhu, kuti vaverengwe namazita avo. Ndikawana bhuku yamazita avakatanga kusvika, ndikawana makanyorwa kudai:
6These are the children of the province, who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city;
6Ndivo vana vorutivi rwenyika yaJudha, vakadzoka pakutapwa, pakati pavakanga vakatapwa, vakatapwa naNebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi, vakadzokera Jerusaremu nokwaJudha, mumwe nomumwe kuguta rake.

61These were those who went up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but they could not show their fathers’ houses, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel:
61Ndivo vakakwira, vachibva Terimera, neTeriharisha, neKerubhi, neAdhoni, neImeri; asi vakanga vasingagoni kududza dzimba dzamadzibaba avo, kana marudzi avo, kana vakanga vari vaIsiraeri.

64These searched for their geneological records, but couldn’t find them. Therefore were they deemed polluted and put from the priesthood.
64Ava vakatsvaka mazita avo pakati pamazita amadziteteguru, asi akashaikwa; saka vakanzi vakasvibiswa, vakabviswa paupristi.
65The governor said to them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, until there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
65ipapo mubati akavaudza kuti varege kudya zvinhu zvitsvene-tsvene, kusvikira kwamuka mupristi ane Urimi neTumimi.
66The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand three hundred sixty,
66Ungano yose yakasvika zviuru zvina makumi mana nezviviri namazana matatu namakumi matanhatu,
67besides their male servants and their female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven: and they had two hundred forty-five singing men and singing women.

70Some from among the heads of fathers’ households gave to the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand darics of gold, fifty basins, and five hundred thirty priests’ garments.
70Vamwe vakuru vedzimba dzamadzibaba avo vakapa zvipo kuzobata basa. Mubati wakapa chivigiro chefuma madariki endarama ane chiuru chimwe, nembiya dzina makumi mashanu, nenguvo dzavapristi dzina mazana mashanu namakumi matatu.
71Some of the heads of fathers’ households gave into the treasury of the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand two hundred minas of silver.
71Vamwe vakuruwo vedzimba dzamadzibaba vakapa muchivigiro chefuma yokubata basa nayo, madariki endarama ane zviuru zvina makumi maviri, nepondo dzesirivha dzine zviuru zviviri namazana maviri.
72That which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand minas of silver, and sixty-seven priests’ garments.
72Vamwe vanhu vakapa madariki endarama ane zviuru zvina makumi maviri, nepondo dzesirivha dzine zviuru zviviri, nenguvo dzavapristi dzina makumi matanhatu nenomwe.
73So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel, lived in their cities. When the seventh month had come, the children of Israel were in their cities.
