Arrival in Jerusalem

³¹ We set out from the Ahava River^[a] on the twelfth day of the first month to go to Jerusalem. We were strengthened by our God,^[b](A) and He protected us from the power of the enemy and from ambush along the way.^{(B) 32} So we arrived at Jerusalem and rested there for three days.^{(C) 33} On the fourth day the silver, the gold, and the articles were weighed out in the house of our God into the care of Meremoth the priest, son of Uriah. Eleazar son of Phinehas was with him. The Levites Jozabad^(D) son of Jeshua and Noadiah son of Binnui were also with them.
