13:023:024 These were the sons of Levi after the house of their fathers;
           even the chief of the fathers, as they were counted by number
           of names by their polls, that did the work for the service of
           the house of the lord, from the age of twenty years and
           upward.

13:023:025 For David said, The lord God of Israel hath given rest unto
           his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever: 

13:023:026 And also unto the Levites; they shall no more carry the
           tabernacle, nor any vessels of it for the service thereof.

13:023:027 For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from
           twenty years old and above: 

13:023:028 Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the
           service of the house of the lord, in the courts, and in the
           chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the
           work of the service of the house of God;

13:023:029 Both for the shewbread, and for the fine flour for meat
           offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is
           baked in the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all
           manner of measure and size;

13:023:030 And to stand every morning to thank and praise the lord, and
           likewise at even: 

13:023:031 And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the lord in the
           sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number,
           according to the order commanded unto them, continually before
           the lord

13:023:032 And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the
           congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge
           of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the
           house of the lord.

13:024:001 Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron.  The sons of
           Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

13:024:002 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no
           children:  therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s
           office.

13:024:003 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar,
           and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their
           offices in their service.

13:024:004 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar
           than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus were they divided.  Among
           the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house
           of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar
           according to the house of their fathers.

13:024:005 Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the
           governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God,
           were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
