Nehemiah 13:4 in Context — Nehemiah 13

2 Por cuanto no salieron á recibir á los hijos de Israel con pan y agua, antes alquilaron á Balaam contra ellos, para que los maldijera: mas nuestro Dios volvió la maldición en bendición.

3 Y fué que, como oyeron la ley, apartaron de Israel toda mistura.

4 Y antes de esto, Eliasib sacerdote, siendo superintendente de la cámara de la casa de nuestro Dios, había emparentado con Tobías,

5 Y le había hecho una grande cámara, en la cual guardaban antes las ofrendas, y el perfume, y los vasos, y el diezmo del grano, y del vino y del aceite, que estaba mandado [dar] á los Levitas, á los cantores, y á los porteros; y la ofrenda de los sacerdotes.

6 Mas á todo esto, yo no estaba en Jerusalem; porque el año treinta y dos de Artajerjes rey de Babilonia, vine al rey; y al cabo de días fuí enviado del rey.
