Ezra 8:14-16 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

14. Uthai and Zaccur came from the family line of Bigvai. The total number of men with them was 70.

15. I gathered the people together at the waterway that flows toward Ahava. We camped there for three days. I looked for Levites among the people and priests. But I didn't find any.

16. So I sent for Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan and Jarib. I also sent for Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah and Meshullam. All of them were leaders. And I sent for Joiarib and Elnathan. They were very well educated.
