1 Chronicles 23:1-5 ▼

1 Now when David reached old age, he made his son Solomon king over Israel.

2 And he gathered together all the leaders of Israel with the priests and the Levites.

3 Now the Levites were counted from thirty years old and upward, and their number by head count of men was thirty-eight thousand.

4 Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges,

5 and four thousand were gatekeepers, and four thousand were praising the LORD with the instruments which David made for giving praise.
