Nehemiah 13:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ But I wasn’t in Jerusalem while all of that was going on. I had returned to the Persian King Artaxerxes, the king of Babylon. I went to him in the 32nd year of his rule. Some time later I asked him to let me return to Jerusalem. ⁷ When I got back, I learned about the evil thing Eliashib had done. He had provided a room for Tobiah. It was in the courtyards of God’s house. ⁸ So I was very unhappy. I threw all of Tobiah’s things out of the room.
