3
And the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years, and upwards: and there were found of them thirty-eight thousand men.
4
Of these twenty-four thousand were chosen, and distributed unto the ministry of the house of the Lord: and six thousand were the overseers and judges
5
Moreover four thousand were porters: and as many singers singing to the Lord with the instruments, which he had made to sing with.
6
And David distributed them into courses by the families of the sons of Levi, to wit, of Gerson, and of Caath, and of Merari.
7
The sons of Gerson were Leedan and Semei.
8
The sons of Leedan: the chief Jahiel, and Zethan, and Joel, three.
9
The sons of Semei: Salomith, and Hosiel, and Aran, three: these were the heads of the families of Leedan.
10
And the sons of Semei were Leheth, and Ziza, and Jaus, and Baria: these were the sons of Semei, four.
11
And Leheth was the first, Ziza the second: but Jaus and Baria had not many children, and therefore they were counted in one family, and in one house.
12
The sons of Caath were Amram, and Isaar, Hebron, and Oziel, four.
13
The sons of Amram, Aaron, and Moses. And Aaron was separated to minister in the holy of holies, he and his sons for ever, and to burn incense before the Lord, according to his ceremonies, and to bless his name for ever.
