59 And these were those who went up from Tel-milkha, Tel-ava, Churbi; then it was said, they who could not show their fathers' families and their descent, whether they were of Israel: 60 The descendants of Delaiah, the descendants of Tobiah, the children of Nekariah, six hundred and fifty-two. 61 And of the descendants of the priests: the descendants of Habaiah, the descendants of Khoz, the descendants of Barzillai, who took a wife of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called after their name. 62 These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but they were not found; therefore they were removed from the priesthood. 63 And the leaders of Israel said to them that they should not eat of the most holy things until there should rise up a high priest who would make an inquiry and see about the matter.
