25 Matanias, e Bacbuquias, Obadias, Mesulão, Talmom, Acube, eram porteiros que faziam guarda às entradas das portas.
26 Estes foram nos dias de Joiaquim, filho de Jesua, filho de Jozadaque, como também nos dias do governador Neemias, e do sacerdote Esdras, o escriba.
27 E na dedicação dos muros de Jerusalém buscaram aos Levitas de todos os lugares, para os trazerem a Jerusalém, a fim de fazerem a dedicação com alegrias, com ações de graças, e com cânticos, com címbalos, liras e harpas.
28 E assim ajuntaram os filhos dos cantores, tanto da planície ao redor de Jerusalém como das aldeias de Netofati;
29 Como também da casa de Gilgal, e dos campos de Geba, e de Azmavete; porque os cantores haviam edificado para si aldeias ao redor de Jerusalém.
