Divrey Hayamim Alef 23:2 In-Context

1 3 So when Dovid was old and full of days, he made Sh’lomo bno Melech Yisroel.
2 And he gathered together all the sarim of Yisroel, with the Kohanim and the Levi’im.
3 Now the Levi’im were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward; and their number by their gulgelot (totals, head count), gevarim (men), was thirty and eight elef.
4 Of which, twenty and four elef were to look after the work of the Beis Hashem; and six alafim were shoterim (officials) and shofetim (judges);
5 Moreover four alafim were sho’arim (gatekeepers); and four alafim praised Hashem with the kelim (instruments) which I made, said Dovid, to praise therewith.
