28 Now one of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest was a son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite. So I banished him from my sight.
29 Please remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, the covenant of the priesthood, and the Levites.
30 So I purified them of everything foreign, and I assigned specific duties to the priests and the Levites.
31 I also provided for the wood offering at the appointed times and also for the first fruits. Please remember me for good, O my God.
