1 Chronicles 23:4-6 ▼

4 Of these 24,000 were to oversee and inspect the work of the house of the LORD and 6,000 were to be administrators and judges,

5 and 4,000 were gatekeepers, and 4,000 [musicians] were to praise the LORD with the instruments which David made for giving praise.

6 And David organized them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
