A List of Those Who Dwelt in Jerusalem

1 Now the princes of the people dwelt in Jerusalem, but the rest of the people cast lots to bring one out of ten to dwell in the holy city Jerusalem, and the nine parts in the other cities.

2 And the people blessed all the men who willingly offered themselves to dwell in Jerusalem.
