Nehemiah 13:8-12 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

8. It was very displeasing for me, and I threw all of the objects from the house of Tobiah outside of the chamber.

9. And I spoke in order, and they cleansed the chambers. Then I returned the objects of the house of God—the grain offering and the frankincense.

10. And then I came to learn that the food of the Levites had not been given to them, so that the Levites and the singers, the doers of the work, had gone back each to his field.

11. So I quarreled with the prefects, and I said, “Why is the house of God forsaken?” And I gathered them and set them at their station.

12. So all of Judah brought the tithe of grain, new wine, and olive oil into the storehouses.
