Verse
1 Chronicles - ch 23 v 21 - 32
- Sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi; sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
- And Eleazar dieth, and he had no sons, but daughters, and sons of Kish their brethren take them.
- Sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth, three.
- These `are' sons of Levi, by the house of their fathers, heads of the fathers, by their appointments, in the number of names, by their polls, doing the work for the service of the house of Jehovah, from a son of twenty years and upward,
- for David said, `Jehovah, God of Israel, hath given rest to His people, and He doth tabernacle in Jerusalem unto the age;'
- and also of the Levites, `None `are' to bear the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service;'
- for by the last words of David they `took' the number of the sons of Levi from a son of twenty years and upward,
- for their station `is' at the side of the sons of Aaron, for the service of the house of Jehovah, over the courts, and over the chambers, and over the cleansing of every holy thing, and the work of the service of the house of God,
- and for the bread of the arrangement, and for fine flour for present, and for the thin unleavened cakes, and for `the work of' the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all `liquid' measure and `solid' measure;
- and to stand, morning by morning, to give thanks, and to give praise to Jehovah, and so at evening;
- and for all the burnt-offerings -- burnt-offerings to Jehovah for sabbaths, for new moons, and for appointed seasons, by number, according to the ordinance upon them continually, before Jehovah.
- And they have kept the charge of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the sons of Aaron, their brethren, for the service of the house of Jehovah.
