1 Chronicles 23:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ Of these twenty-four thousand were chosen, and distributed unto the ministry of the house of the Lord: and six thousand were the overseers and judges.

⁵ Moreover four thousand were porters: and as many singers singing to the Lord with the instruments, which he had made to sing with.

⁶ And David distributed them into courses by the families of the sons of Levi, to wit, of Gerson, and of Caath, and of Merari.
