10 I also learned that the allotments for the descendants of Levi had not been distributed. As a result, the descendants of Levi and singers who were responsible for the service had each left to go back to their fields.

11 So I confronted the officials and asked, |Why is the Temple of God neglected?| Then I gathered them together and put them back in their places.

12 Then all of Judah brought the tithe of the grain, the new wine, and the oil into the storerooms.

13 I appointed over the storerooms: Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah from the descendants of Levi; and next to them Zaccur's son Hanan, the grandson of Mattaniah, because they had been considered faithful. Their duties were to distribute to their associates.
