And it came to pass at the endH7093 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141, wherein SolomonH8010 had builtH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and his own houseH1004,
That the citiesH5892 which HuramH2361 had restoredH5414 to SolomonH8010, SolomonH8010 builtH1129 them, and caused the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 to dwellH3427 there.
And SolomonH8010 wentH3212 to HamathzobahH2578, and prevailedH2388 against it.
And he builtH1129 TadmorH8412 in the wildernessH4057, and all the storeH4543 citiesH5892, which he builtH1129 in HamathH2574.
Also he builtH1129 BethhoronH1032 the upperH5945, and BethhoronH1032 the netherH8481, fencedH4692 citiesH5892, with wallsH2346, gatesH1817, and barsH1280;
And BaalathH1191, and all the storeH4543 citiesH5892 that SolomonH8010 had, and all the chariotH7393 citiesH5892, and the citiesH5892 of the horsemenH6571, and all that SolomonH8010 desiredH2836+H2837 to buildH1129 in JerusalemH3389, and in LebanonH3844, and throughout all the landH776 of his dominionH4475. {all that…: Heb. all the desire of Solomon which he desired to build}
As for all the peopleH5971 that were leftH3498 of the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, which were not of IsraelH3478,
But of their childrenH1121, who were leftH3498 afterH310 them in the landH776, whom the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 consumedH3615 not, them did SolomonH8010 make to payH5927 tributeH4522 until this dayH3117.
But of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 did SolomonH8010 makeH5414 no servantsH5650 for his workH4399; but they were menH582 of warH4421, and chiefH8269 of his captainsH7991, and captainsH8269 of his chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571.
And these were the chiefH8269 of kingH4428 Solomon'sH8010 officersH5324+H5333, even two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572, that bare ruleH7287 over the peopleH5971.
And SolomonH8010 brought upH5927 the daughterH1323 of PharaohH6547 out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 unto the houseH1004 that he had builtH1129 for her: for he saidH559, My wifeH802 shall not dwellH3427 in the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, because the places are holyH6944, whereunto the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 hath comeH935. {holy: Heb. holiness}
Then SolomonH8010 offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto the LORDH3068 on the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, which he had builtH1129 beforeH6440 the porchH197,
Even after a certain rateH1697 every dayH3117, offeringH5927 according to the commandmentH4687 of MosesH4872, on the sabbathsH7676, and on the new moonsH2320, and on the solemn feastsH4150, threeH7969 timesH6471 in the yearH8141, even in the feastH2282 of unleavened breadH4682, and in the feastH2282 of weeksH7620, and in the feastH2282 of tabernaclesH5521.
And he appointedH5975, according to the orderH4941 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1, the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 to their serviceH5656, and the LevitesH3881 to their chargesH4931, to praiseH1984 and ministerH8334 before the priestsH3548, as the dutyH1697 of every dayH3117 requiredH3117: the portersH7778 also by their coursesH4256 at every gateH8179: for so had DavidH1732 the manH376 of GodH430 commandedH4687. {so had David…: Heb. so was the commandment of David the man of God}
And they departedH5493 not from the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428 unto the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 concerning any matterH1697, or concerning the treasuresH214.
Now all the workH4399 of SolomonH8010 was preparedH3559 unto the dayH3117 of the foundationH4143 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and until it was finishedH3615. So the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was perfectedH8003.
Then wentH1980 SolomonH8010 to EziongeberH6100, and to ElothH359, at the seaH3220 sideH8193 in the landH776 of EdomH123. {Eloth: also called, Elath, Deut.2.8.}
And HuramH2361 sentH7971 him by the handsH3027 of his servantsH5650 shipsH591+H591, and servantsH5650 that had knowledgeH3045 of the seaH3220; and they wentH935 with the servantsH5650 of SolomonH8010 to OphirH211, and tookH3947 thence fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 talentsH3603 of goldH2091, and broughtH935 them to kingH4428 SolomonH8010.

And it came to pass, when the priestsH3548 were come outH3318 of the holyH6944 place: (for all the priestsH3548 that were presentH4672 were sanctifiedH6942, and did not then waitH8104 by courseH4256: {present: Heb. found}
So the serviceH5656 was preparedH3559, and the priestsH3548 stoodH5975 in their placeH5977, and the LevitesH3881 in their coursesH4256, according to the king'sH4428 commandmentH4687.
And the portersH7778 were, ShallumH7967, and AkkubH6126, and TalmonH2929, and AhimanH289, and their brethrenH251: ShallumH7967 was the chiefH7218;
And this is the blessingH1293, wherewith MosesH4872 the manH376 of GodH430 blessedH1288 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 beforeH6440 his deathH4194.
This is the thingH1697 that ye shall doH6213; A third partH7992 of you enteringH935 on the sabbathH7676, of the priestsH3548 and of the LevitesH3881, shall be portersH7778 of the doorsH5592; {doors: Heb. thresholds}
And these are they whom DavidH1732 setH5975 over the serviceH3027 of songH7892 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, after that the arkH727 had restH4494.
Concerning the divisionsH4256 of the portersH7778: Of the KorhitesH7145 was MeshelemiahH4920 the sonH1121 of KoreH6981, of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623. {Meshelemiah: or, Shelemiah, ver.14.} {Asaph: or, Abiasaph Chap.9.19.& 6.37.}
And the sonsH1121 of MeshelemiahH4920 were, ZechariahH2148 the firstbornH1060, JediaelH3043 the secondH8145, ZebadiahH2069 the thirdH7992, JathnielH3496 the fourthH7243,
ElamH5867 the fifthH2549, JehohananH3076 the sixthH8345, ElioenaiH454 the seventhH7637.
Moreover the sonsH1121 of ObededomH5654 were, ShemaiahH8098 the firstbornH1060, JehozabadH3075 the secondH8145, JoahH3098 the thirdH7992, and SacarH7940 the fourthH7243, and NethaneelH5417 the fifthH2549,
AmmielH5988 the sixthH8345, IssacharH3485 the seventhH7637, PeulthaiH6469 the eighthH8066: for GodH430 blessedH1288 him. {him: that is, Obededom}
Also unto ShemaiahH8098 his sonH1121 were sonsH1121 bornH3205, that ruledH4474 throughout the houseH1004 of their fatherH1: for they were mighty menH1368 of valourH2428.
The sonsH1121 of ShemaiahH8098; OthniH6273, and RephaelH7501, and ObedH5744, ElzabadH443, whose brethrenH251 were strongH2428 menH1121, ElihuH453, and SemachiahH5565.
All these of the sonsH1121 of ObededomH5654: they and their sonsH1121 and their brethrenH251, ableH2428 menH376 for strengthH3581 for the serviceH5656, were threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 of ObededomH5654.
And MeshelemiahH4920 had sonsH1121 and brethrenH251, strongH2428 menH1121, eighteenH8083+H6240.
Also HosahH2621, of the childrenH1121 of MerariH4847, had sonsH1121; SimriH8113 the chiefH7218, (for though he was not the firstbornH1060, yet his fatherH1 madeH7760 him the chiefH7218;)
HilkiahH2518 the secondH8145, TebaliahH2882 the thirdH7992, ZechariahH2148 the fourthH7243: all the sonsH1121 and brethrenH251 of HosahH2621 were thirteenH7969+H6240.
Among these were the divisionsH4256 of the portersH7778, even among the chiefH7218 menH1397, having wardsH4931 one againstH5980 anotherH251, to ministerH8334 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And they castH5307 lotsH1486, as well the smallH6996 as the greatH1419, according to the houseH1004 of their fathersH1, for every gateH8179. {as well…: or, as well for the small as for the great}
And the lotH1486 eastwardH4217 fellH5307 to ShelemiahH8018. Then for ZechariahH2148 his sonH1121, a wiseH7922 counsellorH3289, they castH5307 lotsH1486; and his lotH1486 came outH3318 northwardH6828. {Shelemiah: also called Meshelemiah, ver.I.}
To ObededomH5654 southwardH5045; and to his sonsH1121 the houseH1004 of AsuppimH624. {Asuppim: Heb. gatherings}
To ShuppimH8206 and HosahH2621 the lot came forth westwardH4628, with the gateH8179 ShallechethH7996, by the causewayH4546 of the going upH5927, wardH4929 againstH5980 wardH4929.
EastwardH4217 were sixH8337 LevitesH3881, northwardH6828 fourH702 a dayH3117, southwardH5045 fourH702 a dayH3117, and toward AsuppimH624 twoH8147 and twoH8147.
At ParbarH6503 westwardH4628, fourH702 at the causewayH4546, and twoH8147 at ParbarH6503.
These are the divisionsH4256 of the portersH7778 among the sonsH1121 of KoreH7145, and among the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847.
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 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 sonH1121 of ElkanahH511, the sonH1121 of JerohamH3395, the sonH1121 of ElielH447, the sonH1121 of ToahH8430,

The sonH1121 of ElkanahH511, the sonH1121 of JoelH3100, the sonH1121 of AzariahH5838, the sonH1121 of ZephaniahH6846,
The sonH1121 of TahathH8480, the sonH1121 of AssirH617, the sonH1121 of EbiasaphH43, the sonH1121 of KorahH7141,
The sonH1121 of IzharH3324, the sonH1121 of KohathH6955, the sonH1121 of LeviH3878, the sonH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And his brotherH251 AsaphH623, who stoodH5975 on his right handH3225, even AsaphH623 the sonH1121 of BerachiahH1296, the sonH1121 of ShimeaH8092,
The sonH1121 of MichaelH4317, the sonH1121 of BaaseiahH1202, the sonH1121 of MalchiahH4441,
The sonH1121 of EthniH867, the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, the sonH1121 of AdaiahH5718,
The sonH1121 of EthanH387, the sonH1121 of ZimmahH2155, the sonH1121 of ShimeiH8096,
The sonH1121 of JahathH3189, the sonH1121 of GershomH1647, the sonH1121 of LeviH3878.
And their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 stood on the left handH8040: EthanH387 the sonH1121 of KishiH7029, the sonH1121 of AbdiH5660, the sonH1121 of MalluchH4409, {Kishi: or, Kushaiah}
The sonH1121 of HashabiahH2811, the sonH1121 of AmaziahH558, the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518,

The sonH1121 of MahliH4249, the sonH1121 of MushiH4187, the sonH1121 of MerariH4847, the sonH1121 of LeviH3878.
Their brethrenH251 also the LevitesH3881 were appointedH5414 unto all manner of serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH4908 of the houseH1004 of GodH430.
And, behold, there cameH935 a manH376 of GodH430 out of JudahH3063 by the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto BethelH1008: and JeroboamH3379 stoodH5975 by the altarH4196 to burn incenseH6999. {burn: or, offer}
Now these are the divisionsH4256 of the sonsH1121 of AaronH175. The sonsH1121 of AaronH175; NadabH5070, and AbihuH30, EleazarH499, and IthamarH385.
But NadabH5070 and AbihuH30 diedH4191 beforeH6440 their fatherH1, and had no childrenH1121: therefore EleazarH499 and IthamarH385 executed the priest's officeH3547.
And DavidH1732 distributedH2505 them, both ZadokH6659 of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499, and AhimelechH288 of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385, according to their officesH6486 in their serviceH5656.
And there were moreH7227 chiefH7218 menH1397 foundH4672 of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499 than of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385; and thus were they dividedH2505. Among the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499 there were sixteenH8337+H6240 chief menH7218 of the houseH1004 of their fathersH1, and eightH8083 among the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385 according to the houseH1004 of their fathersH1.
Thus were they dividedH2505 by lotH1486, one sortH428 with anotherH428; for the governorsH8269 of the sanctuaryH6944, and governorsH8269 of the house of GodH430, were of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499, and of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385.
And ShemaiahH8098 the sonH1121 of NethaneelH5417 the scribeH5608, one of the LevitesH3881, wroteH3789 them beforeH6440 the kingH4428, and the princesH8269, and ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, and AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54, and before the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881: oneH259 principalH1 householdH1004 being takenH270 for EleazarH499, and one takenH270 for IthamarH385. {principal…: Heb. house of the father}
Now the firstH7223 lotH1486 came forthH3318 to JehoiaribH3080, the secondH8145 to JedaiahH3048,
The thirdH7992 to HarimH2766, the fourthH7243 to SeorimH8188,
The fifthH2549 to MalchijahH4441, the sixthH8345 to MijaminH4326,
The seventhH7637 to HakkozH6976, the eighthH8066 to AbijahH29,
The ninthH8671 to JeshuaH3442, the tenthH6224 to ShecaniahH7935,
The eleventhH6249+H6240 to EliashibH475, the twelfthH8147+H6240 to JakimH3356,
The thirteenthH7969+H6240 to HuppahH2647, the fourteenthH702+H6240 to JeshebeabH3428,
The fifteenthH2568+H6240 to BilgahH1083, the sixteenthH8337+H6240 to ImmerH564,
The seventeenthH7651+H6240 to HezirH2387, the eighteenthH8083+H6240 to AphsesH6483,
The nineteenthH8672+H6240 to PethahiahH6611, the twentiethH6242 to JehezekelH3168,
The oneH259 and twentiethH6242 to JachinH3199, the twoH8147 and twentiethH6242 to GamulH1577,
The threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 to DelaiahH1806, the fourH702 and twentiethH6242 to MaaziahH4590.
These were the orderingsH6486 of them in their serviceH5656 to comeH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, according to their mannerH4941, underH3027 AaronH175 their fatherH1, as the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 had commandedH6680 him.
And DavidH1732 spakeH559 to the chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881 to appointH5975 their brethrenH251 to be the singersH7891 with instrumentsH3627 of musickH7892, psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658 and cymbalsH4700, soundingH8085, by lifting upH7311 the voiceH6963 with joyH8057.
So the LevitesH3881 appointedH5975 HemanH1968 the sonH1121 of JoelH3100; and of his brethrenH251, AsaphH623 the sonH1121 of BerechiahH1296; and of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 their brethrenH251, EthanH387 the sonH1121 of KushaiahH6984;
And with them their brethrenH251 of the secondH4932 degree, ZechariahH2148, BenH1122, and JaazielH3268, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and MaaseiahH4641, and MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehH466, and MikneiahH4737, and ObededomH5654, and JeielH3273, the portersH7778.
So the singersH7891, HemanH1968, AsaphH623, and EthanH387, were appointed to soundH8085 with cymbalsH4700 of brassH5178;
And ZechariahH2148, and AzielH5815, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, and EliabH446, and MaaseiahH4641, and BenaiahH1141, with psalteriesH5035 on AlamothH5961;
And MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehH466, and MikneiahH4737, and ObededomH5654, and JeielH3273, and AzaziahH5812, with harpsH3658 on the SheminithH8067 to excelH5329. {on the…: or, on the eighth to oversee}
And ChenaniahH3663, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881, was for songH4853: he instructedH3256 about the songH4853, because he was skilfulH995. {was for…: or, was for the carriage: he instructed about the carriage} {song: Heb. lifting up}
All this, said David, the LORDH3068 made me understandH7919 in writingH3791 by his handH3027 upon me, even all the worksH4399 of this patternH8403.
There wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of HerodG2264, the kingG935 of JudaeaG2449, a certainG5100 priestG2409 namedG3686 ZachariasG2197, ofG1537 the courseG2183 of AbiaG7: andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135 was ofG1537 the daughtersG2364 of AaronG2, andG2532 herG846 nameG3686 was ElisabethG1665.
And he appointedH5414 certain of the LevitesH3881 to ministerH8334 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and to recordH2142, and to thankH3034 and praiseH1984 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478:
AsaphH623 the chiefH7218, and nextH4932 to him ZechariahH2148, JeielH3273, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and MattithiahH4993, and EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and ObededomH5654: and JeielH3273 with psalteriesH5035+H3627 and with harpsH3658; but AsaphH623 made a soundH8085 with cymbalsH4700; {with psalteries…: Heb. with instruments of psalteries and harps}
BenaiahH1141 also and JahazielH3166 the priestsH3548 with trumpetsH2689 continuallyH8548 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430.
AndG2532 when he had removedG3179 himG846, he raised upG1453 unto themG846 DavidG1138 to beG1519 their kingG935; to whomG3739 alsoG2532 he gave testimonyG3140, and saidG2036, I have foundG2147 DavidG1138 the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 mine ownG3450 heartG2588, whichG3739 shall fulfilG4160 allG3956 myG3450 willG2307.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that whileG1722 heG846 executed the priest's officeG2407 beforeG1725 GodG2316 inG1722 the orderG5010 of hisG846 courseG2183,
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}
ForG1063+G3303 DavidG1138, after he had servedG5256 his ownG2398 generationG1074 by the willG1012 of GodG2316, fell on sleepG2837, andG2532 was laidG4369 untoG4314 hisG846 fathersG3962, andG2532 sawG1492 corruptionG1312: {after…: or, after he had in his own age served the will of God}
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.

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.

The sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 by JaaziahH3269; BenoH1121, and ShohamH7719, and ZaccurH2139, and IbriH5681.

The sonsH1121 also of MushiH4187; MahliH4249, and EderH5740, and JerimothH3406. These were the sonsH1121 of the LevitesH3881 after the houseH1004 of their fathersH1.
These likewise castH5307 lotsH1486 over againstH5980 their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 in the presenceH6440 of DavidH1732 the kingH4428, and ZadokH6659, and AhimelechH288, and the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881, even the principalH7218 fathersH1 over againstH5980 their youngerH6996 brethrenH251.
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:

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}
