And I was aware that the portions of the Levites had not been given, for the Levites and the singers who did the work had each one fled to his field.

Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain, and the new wine, and the oil, into the treasuries.

And 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 counted faithful, and on them was theduty to distribute to their brothers.

Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and do not wipe out my good deeds which I have done for the house of my God, and in its keeping.
