8of the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469, ShemaiahH8098 the chiefH8269, and his brethren twoH3967 hundredH3967;

9of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275, ElielH447 the chiefH8269, and his brethren eightyH8084;

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 he saidH559 to them, Ye are the chiefH7218 fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881; hallow yourselves, ye and your brethren, that ye may bringH5927 up the arkH727 of Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to [the place that] I have preparedH3559 for it.

13For because ye did [it] not at the firstH7223, Jehovah our 2GodH430 made a breach upon us, for that we soughtH1875 him not after the due order.

14So the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 hallowed themselves to bringH5927 up the arkH727 of Jehovah the 3GodH430 of IsraelH3478.

15And the children of the LevitesH3881 boreH5375 the arkH727 of 4GodH430 upon their shouldersH3802 with the staves upon them, as MosesH4872 had commandedH6680 according to the wordH1697 of Jehovah.

16And DavidH1732 spoke to the chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881 to appointH5975 their brethren, the singersH7891, with instrumentsH3627 of music, lutes, and harpsH3658, and cymbalsH4700, that they should soundH6963 aloud, liftingH7311 up the voiceH6963 with joyH8057.

17And 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 [rankH4932], ZechariahH2148, Ben, and Jaaziel, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and MaaseiahH4641, and MattithiahH4993, and Elipheleh, and MikneiahH4737, and Obed-EdomH5654, and JeielH3273, the doorkeepers;

19and the singersH7891, HemanH1968, AsaphH623, and EthanH387, to sound aloud with cymbalsH4700 of brass;

20and ZechariahH2148, and Aziel, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, and EliabH446, and MaaseiahH4641, and BenaiahH1141, with lutes on AlamothH5961;

21and MattithiahH4993, and Elipheleh, and MikneiahH4737, and Obed-EdomH5654 and JeielH3273, and AzaziahH5812, with harpsH3658 on the SheminithH8067 to lead [the singing].

22And Chenaniah, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881 for the music, gaveH995 instruction in music, for he was skilful.
