Now the Levites
<03881>

<05608> (8735)
from the age
<01121>

<04605>_:
and their number

by their polls
<01538>_,
man by man
<01397>_,
was thirty
<07970>
and eight
<08083>

<0505>_.

<0428>_,
twenty
<06242>

<0702>

<0505>
[were] to set forward
<05329> (8763)
the work
<04399>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
and six
<08337>
thousand
<0505>
[were] officers
<07860> (8802)
and judges
<08199> (8802)_:
{set...: or, oversee}
Moreover four
<0702>

the LORD
<03068>
with the instruments
<03627>
which I made
<06213> (8804)_,
[said David], to praise
<01984> (8763)
[therewith].
And David
<01732>
divided

of Levi
<03878>_,

but Jeush
<03266>
and Beriah
<01283>
had not many
<07235> (8689)

<01121>_;
therefore they were in one

<0914> (8735)_,
that he should sanctify

the most
<06944>
holy things
<06944>_,
he and his sons
<01121>
for
