And it grieved me sore: therefore I cast forth all the household stuff to Tobiah out of the chamber.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 13 of Nehemiah. Eliashib, the priest in charge of the temple chambers, had prepared a room for Tobiah. Nehemiah regards this as a violation of the established order because a former adversary occupies a place intended for cultic provisions. Reform begins by physically cleansing the space and returning it to its religious function.

und es verdroß mich sehr, und ich warf alle Geräte vom Hause hinaus vor die Kammer
Y doliome en gran manera; y eché todas las alhajas de la casa de Tobías fuera de la cámara;
Esto me disgustó mucho, y arrojé fuera de la cámara todos los muebles de la casa de Tobías.
J'en éprouvai un vif déplaisir, et je jetai hors de la chambre tous les objets qui appartenaient à Tobija;
E la cosa mi dispiacque grandemente, ed io gittai fuor della camera tutte le masserizie della casa di Tobia.
O que muito me desagradou; de sorte que lancei todos os móveis da casa de Tobias fora da câmara.
我非常憤怒,就把 多比雅 的一切家具都從屋子裏拋出去。
