1 Chr 23:1-26:19 : 1 So when David{H1732} was old{H2204}{(H8804)} and full{H7646}{(H8804)} of days{H3117}, he made Solomon{H8010} his son{H1121} king{H4427}{(H8686)} over Israel{H3478}. 2 And he gathered together{H622}{(H8799)} all the princes{H8269} of Israel{H3478}, with the priests{H3548} and the Levites{H3881}. 3 Now the Levites{H3881} were numbered{H5608}{(H8735)} from the age{H1121} of thirty{H7970} years{H8141} and upward{H4605}: and their number{H4557} by their polls{H1538}, man by man{H1397}, was thirty{H7970} and eight{H8083} thousand{H505}. 4 Of which{H428}, twenty{H6242} and four{H702} thousand{H505} were to set forward{H5329}{(H8763)} the work{H4399} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}; and six{H8337} thousand{H505} were officers{H7860}{(H8802)} and judges{H8199}{(H8802)}: 5 Moreover four{H702} thousand{H505} were porters{H7778}; and four{H702} thousand{H505} praised{H1984}{(H8764)} the LORD{H3068} with the instruments{H3627} which I made{H6213}{(H8804)}, said David, to praise{H1984}{(H8763)} therewith. 6 And David{H1732} divided{H2505}{(H8735)} them into courses{H4256} among the sons{H1121} of Levi{H3878}, namely, Gershon{H1648}, Kohath{H6955}, and Merari{H4847}. 7 Of the Gershonites{H1649} were, Laadan{H3936}, and Shimei{H8096}. 8 The sons{H1121} of Laadan{H3936}; the chief{H7218} was Jehiel{H3171}, and Zetham{H2241}, and Joel{H3100}, three{H7969}. 9 The sons{H1121} of Shimei{H8096}; Shelomith{H8019}{(H8675)}{H8013}, and Haziel{H2381}, and Haran{H2039}, three{H7969}. These were the chief{H7218} of the fathers{H1} of Laadan{H3936}. 10 And the sons{H1121} of Shimei{H8096} were, Jahath{H3189}, Zina{H2126}, and Jeush{H3266}, and Beriah{H1283}. These four{H702} were the sons{H1121} of Shimei{H8096}. 11 And Jahath{H3189} was the chief{H7218}, and Zizah{H2125} the second{H8145}: but Jeush{H3266} and Beriah{H1283} had not many{H7235}{(H8689)} sons{H1121}; therefore they were in one{H259} reckoning{H6486}, according to their father's{H1} house{H1004}. 12 The sons{H1121} of Kohath{H6955}; Amram{H6019}, Izhar{H3324}, Hebron{H2275}, and Uzziel{H5816}, four{H702}. 13 The sons{H1121} of Amram{H6019}; Aaron{H175} and Moses{H4872}: and Aaron{H175} was separated{H914}{(H8735)}, that he should sanctify{H6942}{(H8687)} the most{H6944} holy things{H6944}, he and his sons{H1121} for{H5704} ever{H5769}, to burn incense{H6999}{(H8687)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, to minister{H8334}{(H8763)} unto him, and to bless{H1288}{(H8763)} in his name{H8034} for{H5704} ever{H5769}. 14 Now concerning Moses{H4872} the man{H376} of God{H430}, his sons{H1121} were named{H7121}{(H8735)} of the tribe{H7626} of Levi{H3878}. 15 The sons{H1121} of Moses{H4872} were, Gershom{H1647}, and Eliezer{H461}. 16 Of the sons{H1121} of Gershom{H1647}, Shebuel{H7619} was the chief{H7218}. 17 And the sons{H1121} of Eliezer{H461} were, Rehabiah{H7345} the chief{H7218}. And Eliezer{H461} had none other{H312} sons{H1121}; but the sons{H1121} of Rehabiah{H7345} were very{H4605} many{H7235}{(H8804)}. 18 Of the sons{H1121} of Izhar{H3324}; Shelomith{H8019} the chief{H7218}. 19 Of the sons{H1121} of Hebron{H2275}; Jeriah{H3404} the first{H7218}, Amariah{H568} the second{H8145}, Jahaziel{H3166} the third{H7992}, and Jekameam{H3360} the fourth{H7243}. 20 Of the sons{H1121} of Uzziel{H5816}; Michah{H4318} the first{H7218}, and Jesiah{H3449} the second{H8145}. 21 The sons{H1121} of Merari{H4847}; Mahli{H4249}, and Mushi{H4187}. The sons{H1121} of Mahli{H4249}; Eleazar{H499}, and Kish{H7027}. 22 And Eleazar{H499} died{H4191}{(H8799)}, and had no sons{H1121}, but daughters{H1323}: and their brethren{H251} the sons{H1121} of Kish{H7027} took{H5375}{(H8799)} them. 23 The sons{H1121} of Mushi{H4187}; Mahli{H4249}, and Eder{H5740}, and Jeremoth{H3406}, three{H7969}. 24 These were the sons{H1121} of Levi{H3878} after the house{H1004} of their fathers{H1}; even the chief{H7218} of the fathers{H1}, as they were counted{H6485}{(H8803)} by number{H4557} of names{H8034} by their polls{H1538}, that did{H6213}{(H8802)} the work{H4399} for the service{H5656} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, from the age{H1121} of twenty{H6242} years{H8141} and upward{H4605}. 25 For David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8804)}, The LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} hath given rest{H5117}{(H8689)} unto his people{H5971}, that they may dwell{H7931}{(H8799)} in Jerusalem{H3389} for ever{H5769}: 26 And also unto the Levites{H3881}; they shall no more carry{H5375}{(H8800)} the tabernacle{H4908}, nor any vessels{H3627} of it for the service{H5656} thereof. 27 For by the last{H314} words{H1697} of David{H1732} the Levites{H3881} were numbered{H4557} from twenty{H6242} years{H8141} old{H1121} and above{H4605}: 28 Because their office{H4612} was to wait{H3027} on the sons{H1121} of Aaron{H175} for the service{H5656} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, in the courts{H2691}, and in the chambers{H3957}, and in the purifying{H2893} of all holy things{H6944}, and the work{H4639} of the service{H5656} of the house{H1004} of God{H430}; 29 Both for the shewbread{H3899}{H4635}, and for the fine flour{H5560} for meat offering{H4503}, and for the unleavened{H4682} cakes{H7550}, and for that which is baked in the pan{H4227}, and for that which is fried{H7246}{(H8716)}, and for all manner of measure{H4884} and size{H4060}; 30 And to stand{H5975}{(H8800)} every morning{H1242} to thank{H3034}{(H8687)} and praise{H1984}{(H8763)} the LORD{H3068}, and likewise at even{H6153}; 31 And to offer{H5927}{(H8687)} all burnt sacrifices{H5930} unto the LORD{H3068} in the sabbaths{H7676}, in the new moons{H2320}, and on the set feasts{H4150}, by number{H4557}, according to the order{H4941} commanded unto them, continually{H8548} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}: 32 And that they should keep{H8104}{(H8804)} the charge{H4931} of the tabernacle{H168} of the congregation{H4150}, and the charge{H4931} of the holy{H6944} place, and the charge{H4931} of the sons{H1121} of Aaron{H175} their brethren{H251}, in the service{H5656} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}. 1 Now these are the divisions{H4256} of the sons{H1121} of Aaron{H175}. The sons{H1121} of Aaron{H175}; Nadab{H5070}, and Abihu{H30}, Eleazar{H499}, and Ithamar{H385}. 2 But Nadab{H5070} and Abihu{H30} died{H4191}{(H8799)} before{H6440} their father{H1}, and had no children{H1121}: therefore Eleazar{H499} and Ithamar{H385} executed the priest's office{H3547}{(H8762)}. 3 And David{H1732} distributed{H2505}{(H8735)} them, both Zadok{H6659} of the sons{H1121} of Eleazar{H499}, and Ahimelech{H288} of the sons{H1121} of Ithamar{H385}, according to their offices{H6486} in their service{H5656}. 4 And there were more{H7227} chief{H7218} men{H1397} found{H4672}{(H8735)} of the sons{H1121} of Eleazar{H499} than of the sons{H1121} of Ithamar{H385}; and thus were they divided{H2505}{(H8799)}. Among the sons{H1121} of Eleazar{H499} there were sixteen{H8337}{H6240} chief men{H7218} of the house{H1004} of their fathers{H1}, and eight{H8083} among the sons{H1121} of Ithamar{H385} according to the house{H1004} of their fathers{H1}. 5 Thus were they divided{H2505}{(H8799)} by lot{H1486}, one sort{H428} with another{H428}; for the governors{H8269} of the sanctuary{H6944}, and governors{H8269} of the house of God{H430}, were of the sons{H1121} of Eleazar{H499}, and of the sons{H1121} of Ithamar{H385}. 6 And Shemaiah{H8098} the son{H1121} of Nethaneel{H5417} the scribe{H5608}{(H8802)}, one of the Levites{H3881}, wrote{H3789}{(H8799)} them before{H6440} the king{H4428}, and the princes{H8269}, and Zadok{H6659} the priest{H3548}, and Ahimelech{H288} the son{H1121} of Abiathar{H54}, and before the chief{H7218} of the fathers{H1} of the priests{H3548} and Levites{H3881}: one{H259} principal{H1} household{H1004} being taken{H270}{(H8803)} for Eleazar{H499}, and one taken{H270}{(H8803)} for Ithamar{H385}. 7 Now the first{H7223} lot{H1486} came forth{H3318}{(H8799)} to Jehoiarib{H3080}, the second{H8145} to Jedaiah{H3048}, 8 The third{H7992} to Harim{H2766}, the fourth{H7243} to Seorim{H8188}, 9 The fifth{H2549} to Malchijah{H4441}, the sixth{H8345} to Mijamin{H4326}, 10 The seventh{H7637} to Hakkoz{H6976}, the eighth{H8066} to Abijah{H29}, 11 The ninth{H8671} to Jeshua{H3442}, the tenth{H6224} to Shecaniah{H7935}, 12 The eleventh{H6249}{H6240} to Eliashib{H475}, the twelfth{H8147}{H6240} to Jakim{H3356}, 13 The thirteenth{H7969}{H6240} to Huppah{H2647}, the fourteenth{H702}{H6240} to Jeshebeab{H3428}, 14 The fifteenth{H2568}{H6240} to Bilgah{H1083}, the sixteenth{H8337}{H6240} to Immer{H564}, 15 The seventeenth{H7651}{H6240} to Hezir{H2387}, the eighteenth{H8083}{H6240} to Aphses{H6483}, 16 The nineteenth{H8672}{H6240} to Pethahiah{H6611}, the twentieth{H6242} to Jehezekel{H3168}, 17 The one{H259} and twentieth{H6242} to Jachin{H3199}, the two{H8147} and twentieth{H6242} to Gamul{H1577}, 18 The three{H7969} and twentieth{H6242} to Delaiah{H1806}, the four{H702} and twentieth{H6242} to Maaziah{H4590}. 19 These were the orderings{H6486} of them in their service{H5656} to come{H935}{(H8800)} into the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, according to their manner{H4941}, under{H3027} Aaron{H175} their father{H1}, as the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} had commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} him. 20 And the rest{H3498}{(H8737)} of the sons{H1121} of Levi{H3878} were these: Of the sons{H1121} of Amram{H6019}; Shubael{H7619}: of the sons{H1121} of Shubael{H7619}; Jehdeiah{H3165}. 21 Concerning Rehabiah{H7345}: of the sons{H1121} of Rehabiah{H7345}, the first{H7218} was Isshiah{H3449}. 22 Of the Izharites{H3325}; Shelomoth{H8013}: of the sons{H1121} of Shelomoth{H8013}; Jahath{H3189}. 23 And the sons{H1121} of Hebron; Jeriah{H3404} the first, Amariah{H568} the second{H8145}, Jahaziel{H3166} the third{H7992}, Jekameam{H3360} the fourth{H7243}. 24 Of the sons{H1121} of Uzziel{H5816}; Michah{H4318}: of the sons{H1121} of Michah{H4318}; Shamir{H8053}. 25 The brother{H251} of Michah{H4318} was Isshiah{H3449}: of the sons{H1121} of Isshiah{H3449}; Zechariah{H2148}. 26 The sons{H1121} of Merari{H4847} were Mahli{H4249} and Mushi{H4187}: the sons{H1121} of Jaaziah{H3269}; Beno{H1121}. 27 The sons{H1121} of Merari{H4847} by Jaaziah{H3269}; Beno{H1121}, and Shoham{H7719}, and Zaccur{H2139}, and Ibri{H5681}. 28 Of Mahli{H4249} came Eleazar{H499}, who had no sons{H1121}. 29 Concerning Kish{H7027}: the son{H1121} of Kish{H7027} was Jerahmeel{H3396}. 30 The sons{H1121} also of Mushi{H4187}; Mahli{H4249}, and Eder{H5740}, and Jerimoth{H3406}.

Then for Zechariah{H2148} his son{H1121}, a wise{H7922} counsellor{H3289}{(H8802)}, they cast{H5307}{(H8689)} lots{H1486}; and his lot{H1486} came out{H3318}{(H8799)} northward{H6828}. 15 To Obededom{H5654} southward{H5045}; and to his sons{H1121} the house{H1004} of Asuppim{H624}. 16 To Shuppim{H8206} and Hosah{H2621} the lot came forth westward{H4628}, with the gate{H8179} Shallecheth{H7996}, by the causeway{H4546} of the going up{H5927}{(H8802)}, ward{H4929} against{H5980} ward{H4929}. 17 Eastward{H4217} were six{H8337} Levites{H3881}, northward{H6828} four{H702} a day{H3117}, southward{H5045} four{H702} a day{H3117}, and toward Asuppim{H624} two{H8147} and two{H8147}. 18 At Parbar{H6503} westward{H4628}, four{H702} at the causeway{H4546}, and two{H8147} at Parbar{H6503}. 19 These are the divisions{H4256} of the porters{H7778} among the sons{H1121} of Kore{H7145}, and among the sons{H1121} of Merari{H4847}.
1 Chr 28:19 : 19 All this, said David, the LORD{H3068} made me understand{H7919}{(H8689)} in writing{H3791} by his hand{H3027} upon me, even all the works{H4399} of this pattern{H8403}.
2 Chr 5:11 : 11 And it came to pass, when the priests{H3548} were come out{H3318}{(H8800)} of the holy{H6944} place:(for all the priests{H3548} that were present{H4672}{(H8737)} were sanctified{H6942}{(H8694)}, and did not then wait{H8104}{(H8800)} by course{H4256}:
2 Chr 23:4 : 4 This is the thing{H1697} that ye shall do{H6213}{(H8799)}; A third part{H7992} of you entering{H935}{(H8802)} on the sabbath{H7676}, of the priests{H3548} and of the Levites{H3881}, shall be porters{H7778} of the doors{H5592};
2 Chr 31:2 : 2 And Hezekiah{H3169} appointed{H5975}{(H8686)} the courses{H4256} of the priests{H3548} and the Levites{H3881} after their courses{H4256}, every man{H376} according{H6310} to his service{H5656}, the priests{H3548} and Levites{H3881} for burnt offerings{H5930} and for peace offerings{H8002}, to minister{H8334}{(H8763)}, and to give thanks{H3034}{(H8687)}, and to praise{H1984}{(H8763)} in the gates{H8179} of the tents{H4264} of the LORD{H3068}.
2 Chr 35:10 : 10 So the service{H5656} was prepared{H3559}{(H8735)}, and the priests{H3548} stood{H5975}{(H8799)} in their place{H5977}, and the Levites{H3881} in their courses{H4256}, according to the king's{H4428} commandment{H4687}.
Ezra 6:18 : 18 And they set{H6966}{(H8684)} the priests{H3549} in their divisions{H6392}, and the Levites{H3879} in their courses{H4255}, for{H5922} the service{H5673} of God{H426}, which is at Jerusalem{H3390}; as it is written{H3792} in the book{H5609} of Moses{H4873}.
