So when DavidH1732 was oldH2204 and fullH7646 of daysH3117, he made SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 kingH4427 over IsraelH3478.
And he gathered togetherH622 all the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478, with the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881.
Now the LevitesH3881 were numberedH5608 from the ageH1121 of thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 and upwardH4605: and their numberH4557 by their pollsH1538, man by manH1397, was thirtyH7970 and eightH8083 thousandH505.
Of whichH428, twentyH6242 and fourH702 thousandH505 were to set forwardH5329 the workH4399 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; and sixH8337 thousandH505 were officersH7860 and judgesH8199: {set…: or, oversee}
Moreover fourH702 thousandH505 were portersH7778; and fourH702 thousandH505 praisedH1984 the LORDH3068 with the instrumentsH3627 which I madeH6213, said David, to praiseH1984 therewith.
And DavidH1732 dividedH2505 them into coursesH4256 among the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, namely, GershonH1648, KohathH6955, and MerariH4847. {courses: Heb. divisions}
Of the GershonitesH1649 were, LaadanH3936, and ShimeiH8096. {Laadan: or, Libni}
The sonsH1121 of LaadanH3936; the chiefH7218 was JehielH3171, and ZethamH2241, and JoelH3100, threeH7969.
The sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096; ShelomithH8019+H8013, and HazielH2381, and HaranH2039, threeH7969. These were the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of LaadanH3936.
And the sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096 were, JahathH3189, ZinaH2126, and JeushH3266, and BeriahH1283. These fourH702 were the sonsH1121 of ShimeiH8096. {Zina: or, Zizah}
And JahathH3189 was the chiefH7218, and ZizahH2125 the secondH8145: but JeushH3266 and BeriahH1283 had not manyH7235 sonsH1121; therefore they were in oneH259 reckoningH6486, according to their father'sH1 houseH1004. {had…: Heb. did not multiply sons}
The sonsH1121 of KohathH6955; AmramH6019, IzharH3324, HebronH2275, and UzzielH5816, fourH702.
The sonsH1121 of AmramH6019; AaronH175 and MosesH4872: and AaronH175 was separatedH914, that he should sanctifyH6942 the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944, he and his sonsH1121 forH5704 everH5769, to burn incenseH6999 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, to ministerH8334 unto him, and to blessH1288 in his nameH8034 forH5704 everH5769.
Now concerning MosesH4872 the manH376 of GodH430, his sonsH1121 were namedH7121 of the tribeH7626 of LeviH3878.
The sonsH1121 of MosesH4872 were, GershomH1647, and EliezerH461.
Of the sonsH1121 of GershomH1647, ShebuelH7619 was the chiefH7218. {Shebuel: or, Shubael}
And the sonsH1121 of EliezerH461 were, RehabiahH7345 the chiefH7218. And EliezerH461 had none otherH312 sonsH1121; but the sonsH1121 of RehabiahH7345 were veryH4605 manyH7235. {the chief: or, the first} {very many: Heb. were highly multiplied}
Of the sonsH1121 of IzharH3324; ShelomithH8019 the chiefH7218.
Of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275; JeriahH3404 the firstH7218, AmariahH568 the secondH8145, JahazielH3166 the thirdH7992, and JekameamH3360 the fourthH7243.
Of the sonsH1121 of UzzielH5816; MichahH4318 the firstH7218, and JesiahH3449 the secondH8145.
The sonsH1121 of MerariH4847; MahliH4249, and MushiH4187. The sonsH1121 of MahliH4249; EleazarH499, and KishH7027.
And EleazarH499 diedH4191, and had no sonsH1121, but daughtersH1323: and their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of KishH7027 tookH5375 them. {brethren: or, kinsmen}
The sonsH1121 of MushiH4187; MahliH4249, and EderH5740, and JeremothH3406, threeH7969.
These were the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 after the houseH1004 of their fathersH1; even the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1, as they were countedH6485 by numberH4557 of namesH8034 by their pollsH1538, that didH6213 the workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, from the ageH1121 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141 and upwardH4605.
For DavidH1732 saidH559, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath given restH5117 unto his peopleH5971, that they may dwellH7931 in JerusalemH3389 for everH5769: {that…: or, and he dwelleth in Jerusalem, etc}
And also unto the LevitesH3881; they shall no more carryH5375 the tabernacleH4908, nor any vesselsH3627 of it for the serviceH5656 thereof.
For by the lastH314 wordsH1697 of DavidH1732 the LevitesH3881 were numberedH4557 from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and aboveH4605: {numbered: Heb. number}
Because their officeH4612 was to waitH3027 on the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, in the courtsH2691, and in the chambersH3957, and in the purifyingH2893 of all holy thingsH6944, and the workH4639 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430; {their…: Heb. their station was at the hand of the sons of Aaron}
Both for the shewbreadH3899+H4635, and for the fine flourH5560 for meat offeringH4503, and for the unleavenedH4682 cakesH7550, and for that which is baked in the panH4227, and for that which is friedH7246, and for all manner of measureH4884 and sizeH4060; {pan: or, flat plate}
And to standH5975 every morningH1242 to thankH3034 and praiseH1984 the LORDH3068, and likewise at evenH6153;
And to offerH5927 all burnt sacrificesH5930 unto the LORDH3068 in the sabbathsH7676, in the new moonsH2320, and on the set feastsH4150, by numberH4557, according to the orderH4941 commanded unto them, continuallyH8548 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068:
And that they should keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and the chargeH4931 of the holyH6944 place, and the chargeH4931 of the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 their brethrenH251, in the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.

And these are they whom DavidH1732 setH5975 over the serviceH3027 of songH7892 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, after that the arkH727 had restH4494.
And they ministeredH8334 beforeH6440 the dwellingH4908 place of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 with singingH7892, until SolomonH8010 had builtH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 in JerusalemH3389: and then they waitedH5975 on their officeH5656 according to their orderH4941.
And these are they that waitedH5975 with their childrenH1121. Of the sonsH1121 of the KohathitesH6956: HemanH1968 a singerH7891, the sonH1121 of JoelH3100, the sonH1121 of ShemuelH8050, {waited: Heb. stood}
The oneH259 lambH3532 thou shalt offerH6213 in the morningH1242; and the otherH8145 lambH3532 thou shalt offerH6213 at evenH6153:
And with the oneH259 lambH3532 a tenthH6241 deal of flourH5560 mingledH1101 with the fourth partH7253 of an hinH1969 of beatenH3795 oilH8081; and the fourth partH7243 of an hinH1969 of wineH3196 for a drink offeringH5262.
And the otherH8145 lambH3532 thou shalt offerH6213 at evenH6153, and shalt doH6213 thereto according to the meat offeringH4503 of the morningH1242, and according to the drink offeringH5262 thereof, for a sweetH5207 savourH7381, an offering made by fireH801 unto the LORDH3068.
This shall be a continualH8548 burnt offeringH5930 throughout your generationsH1755 at the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: where I will meetH3259 you, to speakH1696 there unto thee.
And these are the singersH7891, chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881, who remaining in the chambersH3957 were freeH6362+H6359: for they were employed in that workH4399 dayH3119 and nightH3915. {they…: Heb. upon them}
A PsalmH4210 or SongH7892 for the sabbathH7676 dayH3117. It is a goodH2896 thing to give thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068, and to sing praisesH2167 unto thy nameH8034, O most HighH5945:
To shew forthH5046 thy lovingkindnessH2617 in the morningH1242, and thy faithfulnessH530 every nightH3915, {every…: Heb. in the nights}
Upon an instrument of ten stringsH6218, and upon the psalteryH5035; upon the harpH3658 with a solemn soundH1902. {the harp…: or, the solemn sound with the harp} {a solemn…: Heb. Higgaion}
So he leftH5800 there beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 AsaphH623 and his brethrenH251, to ministerH8334 beforeH6440 the arkH727 continuallyH8548, as every day'sH3117 workH1697 requiredH3117:
And ObededomH5654 with their brethrenH251, threescoreH8346 and eightH8083; ObededomH5654 also the sonH1121 of JeduthunH3038 and HosahH2621 to be portersH7778:
And ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, and his brethrenH251 the priestsH3548, beforeH6440 the tabernacleH4908 of the LORDH3068 in the high placeH1116 that was at GibeonH1391,
To offerH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto the LORDH3068 upon the altarH4196 of the burnt offeringH5930 continuallyH8548 morningH1242 and eveningH6153, and to do according to all that is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068, which he commandedH6680 IsraelH3478; {morning…: Heb. in the morning, and in the evening}
And with them HemanH1968 and JeduthunH3038, and the restH7605 that were chosenH1305, who were expressedH5344 by nameH8034, to give thanksH3034 to the LORDH3068, because his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769;
And with them HemanH1968 and JeduthunH3038 with trumpetsH2689 and cymbalsH4700 for those that should make a soundH8085, and with musicalH7892 instrumentsH3627 of GodH430. And the sonsH1121 of JeduthunH3038 were portersH8179. {porters: Heb. for the gate}
A SongH7892 of degreesH4609. Behold, blessH1288 ye the LORDH3068, all ye servantsH5650 of the LORDH3068, which by nightH3915 standH5975 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Moreover DavidH1732 and the captainsH8269 of the hostH6635 separatedH914 to the serviceH5656 of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623, and of HemanH1968, and of JeduthunH3038, who should prophesyH5012+H5030 with harpsH3658, with psalteriesH5035, and with cymbalsH4700: and the numberH4557 of the workmenH582+H4399 according to their serviceH5656 was:
Of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623; ZaccurH2139, and JosephH3130, and NethaniahH5418, and AsarelahH841, the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 under the handsH3027 of AsaphH623, which prophesiedH5012 according to the orderH3027 of the kingH4428. {Asarelah: otherwise called Jesharelah} {according…: Heb. by the hands of the king}
Of JeduthunH3038: the sonsH1121 of JeduthunH3038; GedaliahH1436, and ZeriH6874, and JeshaiahH3470, HashabiahH2811, and MattithiahH4993, sixH8337, under the handsH3027 of their fatherH1 JeduthunH3038, who prophesiedH5012 with a harpH3658, to give thanksH3034 and to praiseH1984 the LORDH3068. {Zeri: or, Izri}
Of HemanH1968: the sonsH1121 of HemanH1968; BukkiahH1232, MattaniahH4983, UzzielH5816, ShebuelH7619, and JerimothH3406, HananiahH2608, HananiH2607, EliathahH448, GiddaltiH1437, and RomamtiezerH7320, JoshbekashahH3436, MallothiH4413, HothirH1956, and MahaziothH4238: {Uzziel: also called, Azareel, ver.18.} {Shebuel: also called, Shubael, ver.20.}
All these were the sonsH1121 of HemanH1968 the king'sH4428 seerH2374 in the wordsH1697 of GodH430, to lift upH7311 the hornH7161. And GodH430 gaveH5414 to HemanH1968 fourteenH702+H6240 sonsH1121 and threeH7969 daughtersH1323. {words: or, matters}
All these were under the handsH3027 of their fatherH1 for songH7892 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, with cymbalsH4700, psalteriesH5035, and harpsH3658, for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, according to the king'sH4428 orderH3027 to AsaphH623, JeduthunH3038, and HemanH1968. {according…: Heb. by the hands of the king}
So the numberH4557 of them, with their brethrenH251 that were instructedH3925 in the songsH7892 of the LORDH3068, even all that were cunningH995, was two hundredH3967 fourscoreH8084 and eightH8083.
Lift upH5375 your handsH3027 in the sanctuaryH6944, and blessH1288 the LORDH3068. {the sanctuary: or, holiness}
And he setH5975 the LevitesH3881 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 with cymbalsH4700, with psalteriesH5035, and with harpsH3658, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and of GadH1410 the king'sH4428 seerH2374, and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030: for so was the commandmentH4687 ofH3027 the LORDH3068 byH3027 his prophetsH5030. {commandment of the LORD: Heb. commandment by the hand of the LORD} {by: Heb. by the hand of}
And the LevitesH3881 stoodH5975 with the instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732, and the priestsH3548 with the trumpetsH2689.
And HezekiahH2396 commandedH559 to offerH5927 the burnt offeringH5930 upon the altarH4196. And whenH6256 the burnt offeringH5930 beganH2490, the songH7892 of the LORDH3068 beganH2490 also with the trumpetsH2689, and with the instrumentsH3627 ordained byH3027 DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. {when: Heb. in the time} {the instruments: Heb. hands of instruments}
And all the congregationH6951 worshippedH7812, and the singersH7892 sangH7891, and the trumpetersH2689 soundedH2690+H2690: and all this continued until the burnt offeringH5930 was finishedH3615. {singers: Heb. song}
And HezekiahH3169 appointedH5975 the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 after their coursesH4256, every manH376 accordingH6310 to his serviceH5656, the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 for burnt offeringsH5930 and for peace offeringsH8002, to ministerH8334, and to give thanksH3034, and to praiseH1984 in the gatesH8179 of the tentsH4264 of the LORDH3068.
And when the buildersH1129 laid the foundationH3245 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, they setH5975 the priestsH3548 in their apparelH3847 with trumpetsH2689, and the LevitesH3881 the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623 with cymbalsH4700, to praiseH1984 the LORDH3068, after the ordinanceH3027 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478.
And they sang together by courseH6030 in praisingH1984 and giving thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068; because he is goodH2896, for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769 toward IsraelH3478. And all the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, when they praisedH1984 the LORDH3068, because the foundationH3245 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was laidH3245.
PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050. PraiseH1984 ye the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068; praiseH1984 him, O ye servantsH5650 of the LORDH3068.
Ye that standH5975 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, in the courtsH2691 of the houseH1004 of our GodH430,
PraiseH1984 the LORDH3050; for the LORDH3068 is goodH2896: sing praisesH2167 unto his nameH8034; for it is pleasantH5273.
BlessH1288 the LORDH3068, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: blessH1288 the LORDH3068, O houseH1004 of AaronH175:
BlessH1288 the LORDH3068, O houseH1004 of LeviH3878: ye that fearH3373 the LORDH3068, blessH1288 the LORDH3068.
We hangedH8518 our harpsH3658 upon the willowsH6155 in the midstH8432 thereof.
For there they that carried us away captiveH7617 requiredH7592 of us a songH1697+H7892; and they that wastedH8437 us required of us mirthH8057, saying, SingH7891 us one of the songsH7892 of ZionH6726. {a song: Heb. the words of a song} {wasted…: Heb. laid us on heaps}
How shall we singH7891 the LORD'SH3068 songH7892 in a strangeH5236 landH127? {strange…: Heb. land of a stranger?}
AndG2532 whenG3753 he had takenG2983 the bookG975, the fourG5064 beastsG2226 andG2532 fourG5064 and twentyG1501 eldersG4245 fell downG4098 beforeG1799 the LambG721, havingG2192 every one of themG1538 harpsG2788, andG2532 goldenG5552 vialsG5357 fullG1073 of odoursG2368, whichG3739 areG1526 the prayersG4335 of saintsG40. {odours: or, incense}
AndG2532 they sungG103 a newG2537 songG5603, sayingG3004, Thou artG1488 worthyG514 to takeG2983 the bookG975, andG2532 to openG455 the sealsG4973 thereofG846: forG3754 thou wast slainG4969, andG2532 hast redeemedG59 usG2248 to GodG2316 byG1722 thyG4675 bloodG129 out ofG1537 everyG3956 kindredG5443, andG2532 tongueG1100, andG2532 peopleG2992, andG2532 nationG1484;
AndG2532 hast madeG4160 usG2248 unto ourG2257 GodG2316 kingsG935 andG2532 priestsG2409: andG2532 we shall reignG936 onG1909 the earthG1093.
AndG2532 I beheldG1492, andG2532 I heardG191 the voiceG5456 of manyG4183 angelsG32 round aboutG2943 the throneG2362 andG2532 the beastsG2226 andG2532 the eldersG4245: andG2532 the numberG706 of themG846 wasG2258 ten thousandG3461 times ten thousandG3461, andG2532 thousandsG5505 of thousandsG5505;
SayingG3004 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, WorthyG514 isG2076 the LambG721 that was slainG4969 to receiveG2983 powerG1411, andG2532 richesG4149, andG2532 wisdomG4678, andG2532 strengthG2479, andG2532 honourG5092, andG2532 gloryG1391, andG2532 blessingG2129.
AndG2532 everyG3956 creatureG2938 whichG3739 isG2076 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 onG1722 the earthG1093, andG2532 underG5270 the earthG1093, andG2532 such asG3739 areG2076 inG1909 the seaG2281, andG2532 allG3956 that are inG1722 themG846, heard IG191 sayingG3004, BlessingG2129, andG2532 honourG5092, andG2532 gloryG1391, andG2532 powerG2904, be unto him that sittethG2521 uponG1909 the throneG2362, andG2532 unto the LambG721 forG1519 everG165 and everG165.
AndG2532 the fourG5064 beastsG2226 saidG3004, AmenG281. AndG2532 the fourG5064 and twentyG1501 eldersG4245 fell downG4098 andG2532 worshippedG4352 him that livethG2198 forG1519 everG165 and everG165.
AndG2532 they sungG103 as it wereG5613 a newG2537 songG5603 beforeG1799 the throneG2362, andG2532 beforeG1799 the fourG5064 beastsG2226, andG2532 the eldersG4245: andG2532 no manG3762 couldG1410 learnG3129 that songG5603 butG1508 the hundredG1540 and fortyG5062 and fourG5064 thousandG5505, whichG3588 were redeemedG59 fromG575 the earthG1093.
