Nehemiah 13:6-8

EasyEnglish Bible

⁶ But when this happened, I was not in Jerusalem. In the 32nd year that King Artaxerxes ruled in Babylon, I had returned to visit him. After I had been there for some time, I asked the king to let me return to Jerusalem. ⁷ When I arrived back in Jerusalem, I heard about the evil thing that Eliashib had done. He had given Tobiah a large room in the yards of God's temple.^{[a] 8} I was very angry, so I threw all Tobiah's things out of the room.
