4 ¶ And before [a]this had the Priest Eliashib the oversight of the chamber of the house of our God, being [b]kinsman to Tobiah:
5 And he had made him a great chamber, and there had they aforetime laid the offerings, the incense, and the vessels, and the tithes of corn, of wine, and of oil (appointed for the Levites, and the singers, and the porters) and the offerings of the Priests.
6 But in all this time was not I in Jerusalem: for in the two and thirtieth year of [c]Artachshashta King of Babel, came I unto the King, and [d]after certain days I obtained of the King.
