15These I assembled by the river that enters Ahava, and we encamped there for three days. I reviewed the people and the Kohanim, but I did not find any Leviim there.

16I sent for Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaya, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Natan, Zecharya, and Meshullam, the leading men, and also for Joiarib and Elnathan, the instructors,

17and I gave them an order for Ido, the leader at the place [called] Casiphia. I gave them a message to convey to Ido [and] his brother, temple-servants at the place [called] Casiphia, that they should bring us attendants for the House of our God.

18Thanks to the benevolent care of our God for us, they brought us a capable man of the family of Mahli son of Levi son of Yisrael, and Sherebiah and his sons and brothers, 18 in all,

19and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the family of Merari, his brothers and their sons, 20 in all;

20and of the temple servants whom David and the officers had appointed for the service of the Leviim—220 temple servants, all of them listed by name.

21I proclaimed a fast there by the Ahava River to afflict ourselves before our God to beseech Him for a smooth journey for us and for our children and for all our possessions;

22for I was ashamed to ask the king for soldiers and horsemen to protect us against any enemy on the way, since we had told the king, “The benevolent care of our God is for all who seek Him, while His fierce anger is against all who forsake Him.”

23So we fasted and besought our God for this, and He responded to our plea.

24Then I selected twelve of the chiefs of the Kohanim, namely Sherebiah and Hashabiah with ten of their brothers,

25and I weighed out to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, the contribution to the House of our God which the king, his counselors and officers, and all Yisrael who were present had made.

26I entrusted to their safekeeping the weight of six hundred and fifty talents of silver, one hundred silver vessels of one talent each, one hundred talents of gold;

27also, twenty gold bowls worth one thousand darics and two vessels of good, shining bronze, as precious as gold.

28I said to them, “You are consecrated to Hashem, and the vessels are consecrated, and the silver and gold are a freewill offering to God of your fathers.

29Guard them diligently until such time as you weigh them out in the presence of the officers of the Kohanim and the Leviim and the officers of the clans of Yisrael in Yerushalayim in the chambers of the House of Hashem.”

30So the Kohanim and the Leviim received the cargo of silver and gold and vessels by weight, to bring them to Yerushalayim to the House of our God.

31We set out for Yerushalayim from the Ahava River on the twelfth of the first month. We enjoyed the care of our God, who saved us from enemy ambush on the journey.
