9and I speak, and they cleanse the chambers, and I bring back thither the vessels of the house of God with the present and the frankincense.
10And I know that the portions of the Levites have not been given, and they flee each to his field -- the Levites and the singers, doing the work.
11And I strive with the prefects, and say, `Wherefore hath the house of God been forsaken?` and I gather them, and set them on their station;
12and all Judah have brought in the tithe of the corn, and of the new wine, and of the oil, to the treasuries.
13And I appoint treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites; and by their hand [is] Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for stedfast they have been reckoned, and on them [it is] to give a portion to their brethren.
14Be mindful of me, O my God, for this, and do not blot out my kind acts that I have done, for the house of my God, and for its charges.
15In those days I have seen in Judah those treading wine-vats on sabbath, and bringing in the sheaves, and lading on the asses, and also, wine, grapes, and figs, and every burden, yea, they are bringing in to Jerusalem on the sabbath-day, and I testify in the day of their selling provision.
