1 And David was old and full of days, and he will make Solomon his son king over Israel. 2 And he will gather together all the chiefs of Israel, and the priests and the Levites. 3 And the Levites will be numbered from the son of thirty years and above: and their number, for their craniums, for the men, thirty and eight thousand. 4 From these to superintend over the work of the house of Jehovah, twenty and four thousand; and scribes and judges, six thousand: 5 And four thousand gate keepers, and four thousand praising to Jehovah with instruments which I made to praise. 6 And David will divide them into divisions to the sons of Levi, to Gershon, Kohath and Merari. 7 To Gershon, Laadan, and Shimei. 1 Chronicles 23:1-7, Smith's Literal Translation.
