was upon them, and the opening thereof every morning
pertained to them.
28
And
certain of them had the charge of the vessels of ministry, that they should account for them when they were brought in and out.
29
Some of them also
were appointed to oversee the vessels and all the instruments of the sanctuary and the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the frankincense and the spices.
30
And
some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices.
31
And Mattithiah,
one of the Levites, who
was the firstborn of Shallum, the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were made in the pans.
32
And
other of their brethren, of the sons of the Kohathites,
were over the showbread, to order
it every sabbath.
33
And of these there were singers, princes of the fathers of the Levites,
who remained in the chambers
free from other work; for they were employed in
that work day and night.
34
These heads of the fathers of the Levites
were heads throughout their generations; these dwelt at Jerusalem.
35
And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jehiel, whose wife’s name
was Maachah;
36
and his firstborn son Abdon, then Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab,
37
Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah, and Mikloth.
