Han fordelte prestene etter deres avdelinger til deres tjenester, slik hans far David hadde bestemt, og levittene til deres plikter å prise Herren og betjene prestene etter dagens behov, og dørvaktene til deres skifter ved hver port; slik hadde David, Guds mann, gitt påbud.
And he gave the divisions of the priests their places for their work, as ordered by his father David, and to the Levites he gave their work of praise and waiting on the priests, to do what was needed day by day; and he gave the door-keepers their places in turn at every door; for so David, the man of God, had given orders.
