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 The Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward, and their number by census of men was 38,000.

4 Of these, 24,000 were to oversee the work of the house of the LORD; and 6,000 were officers and judges,

5 and 4,000 were gatekeepers, and 4,000 were praising the LORD with the instruments which David made for giving praise.
