Nehemiah 13:4 in Context — Nehemiah 13

2 Porque não saíram ao encontro dos filhos de Israel com pão e água; em vez disso, contrataram a Balaão contra eles, para os amaldiçoar; ainda que nosso Deus tornou a maldição em bênção.

3 Sucedeu, pois, que, quando eles ouviram esta lei, separaram de Israel toda mistura.

4 E antes disto, Eliasibe, o sacerdote, sendo superintendente da câmara da casa de nosso Deus, tinha se aparentado com Tobias,

5 E tinha lhe preparado uma câmara grande, na qual antes se guardavam as ofertas de alimentos, o incenso, os vasos, os dízimos de grão, de vinho e de azeite, que estava ordenado [dar] aos levitas, aos cantores, e aos porteiros; como também a oferta alçada para os sacerdotes.

6 Porém enquanto tudo isto [acontecia] ,eu não estava em Jerusalém; porque no ano trinta e dois de Artaxerxes rei da Babilônia, eu vim ao rei; mas ao fim de [alguns] dias obtive permissão para me ausentar do rei.
