44And on that dayH3117 were menH376 appointedH5975 over the chambers for the treasuresH214, for the heave-offerings, for the first-fruits, and for the tithesH4643, to gatherH3664 into them, according to the fieldsH7704 of the citiesH5892, the portionsH4521 appointedH5975 by the lawH8451 for the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881: for JudahH3063 rejoiced for the priestsH3548 and for the LevitesH3881 that waited. 45And they keptH8104 the chargeH4931 of their GodH430, and the chargeH4931 of the purificationH2893, and so did the singersH7891 and the porters, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and of SolomonH8010 his sonH1121. 46For in the daysH3117 of DavidH1732 and AsaphH623 of old there was a chiefH7218 of the singersH7891, and songsH7892 of praiseH8416 and thanksgiving unto GodH430. 47And all IsraelH3478 in the daysH3117 of ZerubbabelH2216, and in the daysH3117 of NehemiahH5166, gaveH5414 the portionsH4521 of the singersH7891 and the porters, as every dayH3117 required: and they setH5414 apartH6942 that which was for the LevitesH3881; and the LevitesH3881 setH5414 apartH6942 that which was for the sonsH1121 of AaronH175.
