2 And he gathered together all the leaders of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
3 Now the Levites were numbered from the age of athirty years and above; and the number of individual males was thirty-eight thousand.
4 Of these, twenty-four thousand were to alook after the work of the house of the Lord, six thousand were bofficers and judges,
5 four thousand were gatekeepers, and four thousand apraised the Lord with musical instruments, b“which I made,” said David, “for giving praise.”
6 Also aDavid separated them into divisions among the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
