Nehemiah 12:28-30

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁸ So the sons of the singers were assembled from the district around Jerusalem, and from ^(A)the villages of the Netophathites, ²⁹ from Beth-gilgal and from their fields in Geba and Azmaveth, for the singers had built themselves villages around Jerusalem. ³⁰ The priests and the Levites ^(B)purified themselves; they also purified the people, the gates and the wall.
