- 3Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.
- 4And before this, Eliashib the priest, having the oversight of the chamber of the house of our God, was allied to Tobiah:
- 5And he had prepared for him a great chamber, where formerly they laid the meat-offerings, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the corn, the new wine, and the oil, which was commanded to be given to the Levites, and the singers, and the porters; and the offerings of the priests.

- 7And I came to Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that Eliashib did for Tobiah, in preparing for him a chamber in the courts of the house of God.
- 8And it grieved me greatly: therefore I cast forth all the household stuff of Tobiah out of the chamber.
- 9Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers: and thither I brought again the vessels of the house of God, with the meat-offering and the frankincense.
- 10And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them: for the Levites and the singers, that did the work, had fled every one to his field.
- 11Then I contended with the rulers, and said, Why is the house of God forsaken? and I assembled them, and set them in their place.
- 12Then all Judah brought the tithe of the corn and the new wine and the oil to the treasuries.
- 13And I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and next to them was Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah: for they were accounted faithful; and their office was to distribute to their brethren.

- 15In those days I saw in Judah some treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading asses; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all manner of burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day: and I testified against them in the day in which they sold provisions.
