8of the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469, ShemaiahH8098 the chiefH8269, and his brethren twoH3967 hundredH3967; 9of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275, ElielH447 the chiefH8269, and his brethren fourscore; 10of the sonsH1121 of UzzielH5816, AmminadabH5992 the chiefH8269, and his brethren a hundredH3967 and twelve. 11And DavidH1732 calledH7121 for ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548, and for the LevitesH3881, for UrielH222, AsaiahH6222, and JoelH3100, ShemaiahH8098, and ElielH447, and AmminadabH5992, 12and saidH559 unto them, Ye are the headsH7218 of the fathers’H1 houses of the LevitesH3881: sanctifyH6942 yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that ye may bringH5927 up the arkH727 of Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, unto the place that I have preparedH3559 for it. 13For because ye bare it not at the firstH7223, Jehovah our GodH430 made a breach upon us, for that we soughtH1875 him not according to the ordinanceH4941. 14So the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 sanctifiedH6942 themselves to bringH5927 up the arkH727 of Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 15And the children of the LevitesH3881 bare the arkH727 of GodH430 upon their shouldersH3802 with the staves thereon, as MosesH4872 commandedH6680 according to the wordH1697 of Jehovah.

16And DavidH1732 spake to the chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881 to appointH5975 their brethren the singersH7891, with instrumentsH3627 of music, psalteries and harpsH3658 and cymbalsH4700, sounding aloud and liftingH7311 up the voiceH6963 with joyH8057. 17So the LevitesH3881 appointedH5975 HemanH1968 the sonH1121 of JoelH3100; and of his brethren, AsaphH623 the sonH1121 of Berechiah; and of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 their brethren, EthanH387 the sonH1121 of Kushaiah; 18and with them their brethren of the secondH4932 degree, ZechariahH2148, Ben, and Jaaziel, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and MaaseiahH4641, and MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehuH466, and MikneiahH4737, and Obed-edomH5654, and JeielH3273, the doorkeepers. 19So the singersH7891, HemanH1968, AsaphH623, and EthanH387, were appointed, with cymbalsH4700 of brass to sound aloud; 20and ZechariahH2148, and Aziel, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, and EliabH446, and MaaseiahH4641, and BenaiahH1141, with psalteries set to AlamothH5961; 21and MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehuH466, and MikneiahH4737, and Obed-edomH5654, and JeielH3273, and AzaziahH5812, with harpsH3658 set to the SheminithH8067, to lead. 22And Chenaniah, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881, was over the song: he instructedH3256 about the song, because he was skilful.
