1 Chronicles 23

1 David in his old age maketh Solomon king. 2 The number and distribution of the Levites. 7 The families of the Gershonites. 12 The sons of Kohath. 21 The sons of Merari. 24 The office of the Levites.

 23:1 ¶ So when David 1732 was old 2204 z8804 and full 7646 z8804 of days, 3117 he made x4427 x853 Solomon 8010 his son 1121 king y4427 z8686 over x5921 Israel. 3478

 23:2 ¶ And he gathered together 622 z8799 x853 all x3605 the princes 8269 of Israel, 3478 with the priests 3548 and the Levites. 3881

 23:3 Now the Levites 3881 were numbered 5608 z8735 from the age 1121 x4480 of thirty 7970 years 8141 and upward: 4605 and their number 4557 by their polls, 1538 man by man, 1397 was x1961 thirty 7970 and eight 8083 thousand. 505

 23:4 Of which, 428 x4480 twenty 6242 and four 702 thousand 505 [were] to set forward 5329 z8763 x5921 the work 4399 of the house 1004 of Yahweh; 3068 and six 8337 thousand 505 [were] officers 7860 z8802 and judges: 8199 z8802

 23:5 Moreover four 702 thousand 505 [were] porters; 7778 and four 702 thousand 505 praised 1984 z8764 Yahweh 3068 with the instruments 3627 which x834 I made, 6213 z8804 [said David], to praise 1984 z8763 [therewith].

 23:6 And David 1732 divided 2505 z8735 them into courses 4256 among the sons 1121 of Levi, 3878 [namely], Gershon, 1648 Kohath, 6955 and Merari. 4847

 23:7 ¶ Of the Gershonites 1649 [were], Laadan, 3936 and Shimei. 8096

 23:8 The sons 1121 of Laadan; 3936 the chief 7218 [was] Jehiel, 3171 and Zetham, 2241 and Joel, 3100 three. 7969

 23:9 The sons 1121 of Shimei; 8096 Shelomith, 8013 y8019 z8675 and Haziel, 2381 and Haran, 2039 three. 7969 These x428 [were] the chief 7218 of the fathers 1 of Laadan. 3936

 23:10 And the sons 1121 of Shimei 8096 [were], Jahath, 3189 Zina, 2126 and Jeush, 3266 and Beriah. 1283 These x428 four 702 [were] the sons 1121 of Shimei. 8096

 23:11 And Jahath 3189 was x1961 the chief, 7218 and Zizah 2125 the second: 8145 but Jeush 3266 and Beriah 1283 had not many 7235 z8689 x3808 sons; 1121 therefore they were x1961 in one 259 reckoning, 6486 according to [their] father's 1 house. 1004

 23:12 ¶ The sons 1121 of Kohath; 6955 Amram, 6019 Izhar, 3324 Hebron, 2275 and Uzziel, 5816 four. 702

 23:13 The sons 1121 of Amram; 6019 Aaron 175 and Moses: 4872 and Aaron 175 was separated, 914 z8735 that he should sanctify 6942 z8687 the most y6944 holy things, 6944 he x1931 and his sons 1121 for y5704 ever, 5769 x5704 to burn incense 6999 z8687 before 6440 Yahweh, 3068 to minister 8334 z8763 unto him, and to bless 1288 z8763 in his name 8034 for y5704 ever. 5769 x5704

 23:14 Now [concerning] Moses 4872 the man 376 of Elohim, 430 his sons 1121 were named 7121 z8735 of x5921 the tribe 7626 of Levi. 3878

 23:15 The sons 1121 of Moses 4872 [were], Gershom, y1647 x1648 and Eliezer. 461

 23:16 Of the sons 1121 of Gershom, y1647 x1648 Shebuel 7619 [was] the chief. 7218

 23:17 And the sons 1121 of Eliezer 461 [were], Rehabiah 7345 the chief. 7218 And Eliezer 461 had x1961 none x3808 other 312 sons; 1121 but the sons 1121 of Rehabiah 7345 were very y4605 many. 7235 z8804 x4605

 23:18 Of the sons 1121 of Izhar; 3324 Shelomith y8019 x8013 the chief. 7218

 23:19 Of the sons 1121 of Hebron; 2275 Jeriah 3404 the first, 7218 Amariah 568 the second, 8145 Jahaziel 3166 the third, 7992 and Jekameam 3360 the fourth. 7243

 23:20 Of the sons 1121 of Uzziel; 5816 Michah 4318 the first, 7218 and Jesiah 3449 the second. 8145

 23:21 ¶ The sons 1121 of Merari; 4847 Mahli, 4249 and Mushi. 4187 The sons 1121 of Mahli; 4249 Eleazar, 499 and Kish. 7027

 23:22 And Eleazar 499 died, 4191 z8799 and had x1961 no x3808 sons, 1121 but x3588 x518 daughters: 1323 and their brethren 251 the sons 1121 of Kish 7027 took 5375 z8799 them.

 23:23 The sons 1121 of Mushi; 4187 Mahli, 4249 and Eder, 5740 and Jeremoth, 3406 three. 7969

 23:24 ¶ These x428 [were] the sons 1121 of Levi 3878 after the house 1004 of their fathers; 1 [even] the chief 7218 of the fathers, 1 as they were counted 6485 z8803 by number 4557 of names 8034 by their polls, 1538 that did 6213 z8802 the work 4399 for the service 5656 of the house 1004 of Yahweh, 3068 from the age 1121 x4480 of twenty 6242 years 8141 and upward. 4605

 23:25 For x3588 David 1732 said, 559 z8804 Yahweh 3068 Elohim 430 of Israel 3478 hath given rest 5117 z8689 unto his people, 5971 that they may dwell 7931 z8799 in Jerusalem 3389 for ever: 5769 x5704

 23:26 And also x1571 unto the Levites; 3881 they shall no x369 [more] carry 5375 z8800 x853 the tabernacle, 4908 nor any x3605 vessels 3627 of it for the service 5656 thereof.

 23:27 For x3588 by the last 314 words 1697 of David 1732 the Levites 3881 x1121 [were] numbered 4557 from twenty y6242 years y8141 old 1121 x4480 x6242 x8141 and above: 4605

 23:28 Because x3588 their office 4612 [was] to wait y3027 on x3027 the sons 1121 of Aaron 175 for the service 5656 of the house 1004 of Yahweh, 3068 in x5921 the courts, 2691 and in x5921 the chambers, 3957 and in x5921 the purifying 2893 of all x3605 holy things, 6944 and the work 4639 of the service 5656 of the house 1004 of Elohim; 430

 23:29 Both for the shewbread, 3899 4635 and for the fine flour 5560 for meat offering, 4503 and for the unleavened 4682 cakes, 7550 and for [that which is baked in] the pan, 4227 and for that which is fried, 7246 z8716 and for all manner x3605 of measure 4884 and size; 4060

 23:30 And to stand 5975 z8800 every morning 1242 to thank 3034 z8687 and praise 1984 z8763 Yahweh, 3068 and likewise x3651 at even; 6153

 23:31 And to offer 5927 z8687 all x3605 burnt sacrifices 5930 unto Yahweh 3068 in the sabbaths, 7676 in the new moons, 2320 and on the set feasts, 4150 by number, 4557 according to the order 4941 commanded unto x5921 them, continually 8548 before 6440 Yahweh: 3068

 23:32 And that they should keep 8104 z8804 x853 the charge 4931 of the tabernacle 168 of the congregation, 4150 and the charge 4931 of the holy 6944 [place], and the charge 4931 of the sons 1121 of Aaron 175 their brethren, 251 in the service 5656 of the house 1004 of Yahweh. 3068
