Nehemiah 13:9 in Context — Nehemiah 13

7 A la fin de l’année, j’obtins du roi la permission de revenir à Jérusalem, et je m’aperçus du mal qu’avait fait Éliaschib, en disposant une chambre pour Tobija dans les parvis de la maison de Dieu.

8 J’en éprouvai un vif déplaisir, et je jetai hors de la chambre tous les objets qui appartenaient à Tobija;

9 j’ordonnai qu’on purifiât les chambres, et j’y replaçai les ustensiles de la maison de Dieu, les offrandes et l’encens.

10 J’appris aussi que les portions des Lévites n’avaient point été livrées, et que les Lévites et les chantres chargés du service s’étaient enfuis chacun dans son territoire.

11 Je fis des réprimandes aux magistrats, et je dis: Pourquoi la maison de Dieu a-t-elle été abandonnée? Et je rassemblai les Lévites et les chantres, et je les remis à leur poste.
