26 Ils vivaient au temps de Jojakim, fils de Josué, fils de Jotsadak, et au temps de Néhémie, le gouverneur, et d’Esdras, le sacrificateur et le scribe.

27 Lors de la dédicace des murailles de Jérusalem, on appela les Lévites de tous les lieux qu’ils habitaient et on les fit venir à Jérusalem, afin de célébrer la dédicace et la fête par des louanges et par des chants, au son des cymbales, des luths et des harpes.

28 Les fils des chantres se rassemblèrent des environs de Jérusalem, des villages des Nethophatiens,

29 de Beth-Guilgal, et du territoire de Guéba et d’Azmaveth; car les chantres s’étaient bâti des villages aux alentours de Jérusalem.

30 Les sacrificateurs et les Lévites se purifièrent, et ils purifièrent le peuple, les portes et la muraille.
