1 When Davidwas old and full of years, he installed his son Solomonas king over Israel. 2 Then he gathered all the leaders of Israel, as well as the priests and Levites.
3 The Levites thirty years of age or older were counted, and the total number of men was 38,000. 4 "Of these," said David,23:4 Hebrew does not include said David,"24,000 are to oversee the work of the house of the LORD, 6,000 are to be officers and judges, 5 4,000 are to be gatekeepers, and 4,000 are to praise the LORD with the instruments I have made for giving praise."
6 Then Daviddivided the Levites into divisions according to the sons of Levi:
Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
The Gershonites
7 The Gershonites: Ladan23:7 Ladan is a variant of Libni; also in verses 8 and 9; see 1 Chronicles 6:17.and Shimei.
8 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel23:8 Jehiel is a variant of Jehieli; see 1 Chronicles 26:21.the first, Zetham, and Joel— three in all.
9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran— three in all. These were the heads of the families of Ladan.
10 And the sons of Shimei:23:10 Shimei was possibly a son or grandson of the Shimei listed in verse 9.Jahath, Zina,23:10 Most Hebrew manuscripts; one Hebrew manuscript, LXX, and Vulgate (see also verse 11) ZizahJeush, and Beriah. These were the sons of Shimei— four in all. 11 Jahathwas the first and Zizahwas the second; but Jeushand Beriahdid not have many sons, so they were counted as one family and received a single assignment.
The Kohathites
12 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel— four in all.
13 The sons of Amram: Aaronand Moses. Aaronand his descendants were set apart forever to consecrate the most holy things, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister before Him, and to pronounce blessings in His name forever. 14 As for Mosesthe man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.
15 The sons of Moses: Gershomand Eliezer.
16 The descendants of Gershom: Shebuelwas the first.
17 The descendants of Eliezer: Rehabiahwas the first. Eliezerdid not have any other sons, but the sons of Rehabiahwere very numerous.
18 The sons of Izhar: Shelomithwas the first.
19 The sons of Hebron: Jeriahwas the first, Amariahthe second, Jahazielthe third, and Jekameamthe fourth.
20 The sons of Uzziel: Micahwas the first and Isshiahthe second.
The Merarites
21 The sons of Merari: Mahliand Mushi.
The sons of Mahli: Eleazarand Kish. 22 Eleazardied without having any sons; he had only daughters. Their cousins, the sons of Kish, married them.
23 The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth23:23 Jeremoth is a variant of Jerimoth; see 1 Chronicles 24:30.— three in all.
Levite Duties Revised
24 These were the descendants of Leviby their families— the heads of families, registered individually by name— those twenty years of age or older who worked in the service of the house of the LORD.
25 For Davidhad said, "The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to His people and has come to dwell in Jerusalemforever. 26 So now the Levites no longer need to carry the tabernacle or any of the articles for its service."
27 For according to the final instructions of David, the Levites twenty years of age or older were counted, 28 but their duty was to assist the descendants of Aaronwith the service of the house of the LORD, being responsible for the courts and chambers, the purification of all the holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God, 29 as well as for the rows of the showbread, the fine flour for the grain offering, the wafers of unleavened bread, the baking, the mixing, and all measurements of quantity and size.
30 They were also to stand every morning to give thanks and praise to the LORD, and likewise in the evening. 31 Whenever burnt offerings were presented to the LORD on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts, they were to serve regularly before the LORD in the numbers prescribed for them. 32 So the Levites were to carry out the responsibilities for the Tent of Meeting and the Holy Place, and, under their brothers the descendants of Aaron, the service of the house of the LORD.
