every side? for he has delivered the inhabitants of the land
into my hand; and the land is subdued before Yahweh,
and before his people.
022:019 Now set your heart and your soul to seek after Yahweh your God;
arise therefore, and build the sanctuary of Yahweh God, to bring
the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, and the holy vessels of God,
into the house that is to be built to the name of Yahweh.
023:001 Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son
king over Israel.
023:002 He gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests
and the Levites.
023:003 The Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward:
and their number by their polls, man by man,
was thirty-eight thousand.
023:004 Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of
the house of Yahweh; and six thousand were officers and judges;
023:005 and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised
Yahweh with the instruments which I made, [said David],
for giving praise.
023:006 David divided them into divisions according to the sons
of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
023:007 Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.
023:008 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
023:009 The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, and Haziel, and Haran, three.
These were the heads of the fathers' [houses] of Ladan.
023:010 The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah.
These four were the sons of Shimei.
023:011 Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah
didn't have many sons; therefore they became a fathers'
house in one reckoning.
023:012 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
023:013 The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated,
that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons,
forever, to burn incense before Yahweh, to minister to him,
and to bless in his name, forever.
023:014 But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named among
the tribe of Levi.
023:015 The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
023:016 The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
023:017 The sons of Eliezer were: Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer
had no other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
023:018 The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
023:019 The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second,
Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
023:020 The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
023:021 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli:
Eleazar and Kish.
023:022 Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only:
and their brothers the sons of Kish took them [to wife].
023:023 The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
023:024 These were the sons of Levi after their fathers' houses,
