7 The Levites—Jeshua (he is saved), Bani (built), Sherebiah (YHWH has scorched), Jamin (right hand), Akkub (insidious), Shabbethai (sabbatical), Hodiah (my majesty is YHWH), Maaseiah (work of YHWH), Kelita (crippled), Azariah (YHWH has helped), Jozabad (YHWH has endowed), Hanan (he is merciful), and Pelaiah (YHWH does wonders)—instructed the people in the Law as they stood in their places.

8 So they read from the Book of the Law of God {Elohim}, explaining it (translating it) and giving insight, so that the people could understand what was being read.
