Nehemiah 13:10 Context
8And it grieued me sore, therefore I cast foorth all the houshold stuffe of Tobiah out of the chamber: 9Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers, and thither brought I againe the vessels of the house of God, with the meate offering, and the frankincense. 10¶ And I perceiued that the portions of the Leuites had not beene giuen them: for the Leuites and the singers that did the worke, were fled euery one to his field. 11Then contended I with the rulers, and said, Why is the house of God forsaken? And I gathered them together, and set them in their place. 12Then brought all Iudah the tithe of the corne, and the new wine, and the oyle, vnto the treasuries.
