Nehemiah 11:1
And the
rulers
of the
people
dwelt
at
Jerusalem:
the
rest
of the
people
also
cast
lots,
to
bring
one
of
ten
to
dwell
in
Jerusalem
the
holy
city,
and
nine
parts
to dwell in other
cities.
2
And the
people
blessed
all the
men,
that willingly
offered
themselves to
dwell
at
Jerusalem.
3
Now these are the
chief
of the
province
that
dwelt
in
Jerusalem:
but in the

every
one
in his
possession
in their
cities,
to wit,
Israel,

All the
