The sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1, were writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697, even until the daysH3117 of JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of EliashibH475.

MattaniahH4983, and BakbukiahH1229, ObadiahH5662, MeshullamH4918, TalmonH2929, AkkubH6126, were portersH7778 keepingH8104 the wardH4929 at the thresholdsH624 of the gatesH8179. {thresholds: or, treasuries, or, assemblies}
These were in the daysH3117 of JoiakimH3113 the sonH1121 of JeshuaH3442, the sonH1121 of JozadakH3136, and in the daysH3117 of NehemiahH5166 the governorH6346, and of EzraH5830 the priestH3548, the scribeH5608.
And at the dedicationH2598 of the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389 they soughtH1245 the LevitesH3881 out of all their placesH4725, to bringH935 them to JerusalemH3389, to keepH6213 the dedicationH2598 with gladnessH8057, both with thanksgivingsH8426, and with singingH7892, with cymbalsH4700, psalteriesH5035, and with harpsH3658.
And the sonsH1121 of the singersH7891 gathered themselves togetherH622, both out of the plain countryH3603 round aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and from the villagesH2691 of NetophathiH5200;
Also from the houseH1004 of GilgalH1537+H1019, and out of the fieldsH7704 of GebaH1387 and AzmavethH5820: for the singersH7891 had buildedH1129 them villagesH2691 round aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389.
And the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 purifiedH2891 themselves, and purifiedH2891 the peopleH5971, and the gatesH8179, and the wallH2346.
Then I brought upH5927 the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 upon the wallH2346, and appointedH5975 twoH8147 greatH1419 companies of them that gave thanksH8426, whereof one wentH8418 on the right handH3225 upon the wallH2346 toward the dungH830 gateH8179:
And afterH310 them wentH3212 HoshaiahH1955, and halfH2677 of the princesH8269 of JudahH3063,
And AzariahH5838, EzraH5830, and MeshullamH4918,
JudahH3063, and BenjaminH1144, and ShemaiahH8098, and JeremiahH3414,
And certain of the priests'H3548 sonsH1121 with trumpetsH2689; namely, ZechariahH2148 the sonH1121 of JonathanH3129, the sonH1121 of ShemaiahH8098, the sonH1121 of MattaniahH4983, the sonH1121 of MichaiahH4320, the sonH1121 of ZaccurH2139, the sonH1121 of AsaphH623:
And his brethrenH251, ShemaiahH8098, and AzaraelH5832, MilalaiH4450, GilalaiH1562, MaaiH4597, NethaneelH5417, and JudahH3063, HananiH2607, with the musicalH7892 instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732 the manH376 of GodH430, and EzraH5830 the scribeH5608 beforeH6440 them.
And at the fountainH5869 gateH8179, which was over against them, they went upH5927 by the stairsH4609 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, at the going upH4608 of the wallH2346, above the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, even unto the waterH4325 gateH8179 eastwardH4217.
And the otherH8145 company of them that gave thanksH8426 wentH1980 over againstH4136 them, and I afterH310 them, and the halfH2677 of the peopleH5971 upon the wallH2346, from beyond the towerH4026 of the furnacesH8574 even unto the broadH7342 wallH2346;
And from above the gateH8179 of EphraimH669, and above the oldH3465 gateH8179, and above the fishH1709 gateH8179, and the towerH4026 of HananeelH2606, and the towerH4026 of MeahH3968, even unto the sheepH6629 gateH8179: and they stood stillH5975 in the prisonH4307 gateH8179.
So stoodH5975 the twoH8147 companies of them that gave thanksH8426 in the houseH1004 of GodH430, and I, and the halfH2677 of the rulersH5461 with me:
And the priestsH3548; EliakimH471, MaaseiahH4641, MiniaminH4509, MichaiahH4320, ElioenaiH454, ZechariahH2148, and HananiahH2608, with trumpetsH2689;
And MaaseiahH4641, and ShemaiahH8098, and EleazarH499, and UzziH5813, and JehohananH3076, and MalchijahH4441, and ElamH5867, and EzerH5829. And the singersH7891 sang loudH8085, with JezrahiahH3156 their overseerH6496. {sang…: Heb. made their voice to be heard}
Also that dayH3117 they offeredH2076 greatH1419 sacrificesH2077, and rejoicedH8055: for GodH430 had made them rejoiceH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057: the wivesH802 also and the childrenH3206 rejoicedH8055: so that the joyH8057 of JerusalemH3389 was heardH8085 even afar offH7350.
And at that timeH3117 were someH582 appointedH6485 over the chambersH5393 for the treasuresH214, for the offeringsH8641, for the firstfruitsH7225, and for the tithesH4643, to gatherH3664 into them out of the fieldsH7704 of the citiesH5892 the portionsH4521 of the lawH8451 for the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881: for JudahH3063 rejoicedH8057 for the priestsH3548 and for the LevitesH3881 that waitedH5975. {of the law: that is, appointed by the law} {for Judah…: Heb. for the joy of Judah} {waited: Heb. stood}
And both the singersH7891 and the portersH7778 keptH8104 the wardH4931 of their GodH430, and the wardH4931 of the purificationH2893, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and of SolomonH8010 his sonH1121.
For in the daysH3117 of DavidH1732 and AsaphH623 of oldH6924 there were chiefH7218 of the singersH7891, and songsH7892 of praiseH8416 and thanksgivingH3034 unto GodH430.
And all IsraelH3478 in the daysH3117 of ZerubbabelH2216, and in the daysH3117 of NehemiahH5166, gaveH5414 the portionsH4521 of the singersH7891 and the portersH7778, every dayH3117 his portionH1697: and they sanctifiedH6942 holy things unto the LevitesH3881; and the LevitesH3881 sanctifiedH6942 them unto the childrenH1121 of AaronH175. {sanctified: that is, set apart}

As concerning the sonsH1121 of LaadanH3936; the sonsH1121 of the GershoniteH1649 LaadanH3936, chiefH7218 fathersH1, even of LaadanH3936 the GershoniteH1649, were JehieliH3172. {Laadan: or, Libni, Chap.16.17.} {Jehieli: or, Jehiel, Chap.23.8.}
The sonsH1121 of JehieliH3172; ZethamH2241, and JoelH3100 his brotherH251, which were over the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.

And ShebuelH7619 the sonH1121 of GershomH1647, the sonH1121 of MosesH4872, was rulerH5057 of the treasuresH214.

This is it that belongeth unto the LevitesH3881: from twentyH6242 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605 they shall go inH935 to waitH6633+H6635 upon the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: {to…: Heb. to war the warfare of, etc}
Then broughtH935 all JudahH3063 the titheH4643 of the cornH1715 and the new wineH8492 and the oilH3323 unto the treasuriesH214. {treasuries: or, storehouses}
And from the ageH1121 of fiftyH2572 yearsH8141 they shall ceaseH7725 waitingH6635 upon the serviceH5656 thereof, and shall serveH5647 no more: {cease…: Heb. return from the warfare of the service}
And I made treasurersH686 over the treasuriesH214, ShelemiahH8018 the priestH3548, and ZadokH6659 the scribeH5608, and of the LevitesH3881, PedaiahH6305: and next to themH3027 was HananH2605 the sonH1121 of ZaccurH2139, the sonH1121 of MattaniahH4983: for they were countedH2803 faithfulH539, and their office was to distributeH2505 unto their brethrenH251. {treasuries: or, storehouses} {next…: Heb. at their hand} {their office…: Heb. it was upon them}
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}

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}
And, behold, GodH430 himself is with us for our captainH7218, and his priestsH3548 with soundingH8643 trumpetsH2689 to cry alarmH7321 against you. O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, fightH3898 ye not against the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1; for ye shall not prosperH6743.
Also the LevitesH3881 which were the singersH7891, all of them of AsaphH623, of HemanH1968, of JeduthunH3038, with their sonsH1121 and their brethrenH251, being arrayedH3847 in white linenH948, having cymbalsH4700 and psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658, stoodH5975 at the east endH4217 of the altarH4196, and with them an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 priestsH3548 soundingH2690 with trumpetsH2689:)
Then HezekiahH3169 commandedH559 to prepareH3559 chambersH3957 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; and they preparedH3559 them, {chambers: or, storehouses}
And brought inH935 the offeringsH8641 and the tithesH4643 and the dedicatedH6944 things faithfullyH530: over which CononiahH3562 the LeviteH3881 was rulerH5057, and ShimeiH8096 his brotherH251 was the nextH4932.
