利未人的職務和班次
23 大衛年老,壽數將盡的時候,就立他的兒子所羅門作王統治以色列。 2 大衛召集了以色列的眾領袖、祭司和利未人。 3 利未人自三十歲及以上的都被數點;按統計,他們男丁的數目,共有三萬八千人。 4 其中有二萬四千人,監管耶和華殿宇的工作;有六千人作官長和審判官; 5 有四千人作守門的,又有四千人用大衛所做(“大衛所做”原文作“我做”)的樂器讚美耶和華。 6 大衛把利未的兒子革順、哥轄和米拉利的子孫,分成班次。
7 革順的子孫(“革順的子孫”直譯是“屬於革順人的”)有拉但和示每。 8 拉但的兒子是:長子耶歇,還有西坦和約珥,共三人。 9 示每的兒子有示羅密、哈薛和哈蘭,共三人。以上這些人是拉但家族的首領。 10 示每的兒子是雅哈、細拿、耶烏施和比利亞;這四人都是示每的兒子。 11 雅哈是長子,細撒是次子;耶烏施和比利亞的子孫不多,所以合為一個家族,同歸一個班次。
12 哥轄的兒子是暗蘭、以斯哈、希伯倫和烏薛,共四人。 13 暗蘭的兒子是亞倫和摩西。亞倫和他的子孫永遠被分別出來,獻上至聖之物;在耶和華面前燒香,服事他,奉他的名祝福,直到永遠。 14 至於神人摩西,他的子孫記在利未支派的冊上。 15 摩西的兒子是革舜和以利以謝。 16 革舜的長子是細布業。 17 以利以謝的第一個兒子是利哈比雅;以利以謝沒有別的兒子,利哈比雅卻有很多兒子。 18 以斯哈的長子是示羅密。 19 希伯倫的兒子是:長子耶利雅、次子亞瑪利亞、三子雅哈悉、四子耶加面。 20 烏薛的兒子是:長子米迦、次子耶西雅。
21 米拉利的兒子是抹利和母示;抹利的兒子是以利亞撒和基士。 22 以利亞撒死了,沒有兒子,只有女兒;基士的兒子們,就是他們的親族,娶了她們為妻。 23 母示的兒子是末力、以得和耶利摩,共三人。
24 以上這些是利未的子孫,按著他們的家族,各家的首領,照著男丁名字的數目被數點,二十歲及以上的,都是辦理耶和華殿的事務的。 25 因為大衛曾說:“耶和華以色列的 神已經使他的子民得享安寧,他自己永遠住在耶路撒冷。 26 利未人不必再抬帳幕和其中所使用的一切器皿了。” 27 按著大衛臨終所吩咐的話,利未人從二十歲起的都被數點了。 28 他們的職任是協助亞倫的子孫,辦理耶和華殿的事務,管理院子、廂房和潔淨一切聖物,以及辦理神殿的事務; 29 又管
理陳設餅、素祭細麵,或無酵薄餅,或是煎盤烤的,或是用油調和的,以及管理各種量度的器具。 30 每天早晨要侍立稱謝和讚美耶和華,每天晚上也要這樣; 31 又要在安息日,每月初一日和指定的節日,按著數目照著規例,把燔祭不住地獻在耶和華面前。 32 他們要看守會幕和聖所,以及看管他們在耶和華殿裡辦事的親族,亞倫的子孫。

利未人的职务
23 大卫年纪老迈,寿数将尽,就立他儿子所罗门为以色列王。 2 他召集了以色列的众首领、祭司和利未人。 3 凡三十岁以上的利未人都在统计之列,共有三万八千男子, 4 其中有两万四千人在耶和华的殿里司职,六千人做官长和审判官, 5 四千人守门,四千人用大卫提供的乐器颂赞耶和华。 6 大卫将利未人革顺、哥辖和米拉利的子孙分成班次。
7 革顺的儿子有拉但和示每。 8 拉但有长子耶歇,还有细坦和约珥,共三个儿子, 9 都是拉但族的族长。示每的儿子有示罗密、哈薛和哈兰三人。 10 示每的儿子还有雅哈、细拿、耶乌施和比利亚四人。 11 雅哈是长子,细拿是次子。耶乌施和比利亚的子孙不多,所以合为一族。
12 哥辖有暗兰、以斯哈、希伯仑、乌薛四个儿子。 13 暗兰的儿子是亚伦和摩西。亚伦和他的子孙永远被分别出来事奉耶和华,向祂献至圣之物,在祂面前烧香,奉祂的名祝福,直到永远。 14 上帝的仆人摩西的子孙归在利未支派的名下。 15 摩西的儿子是革舜和以利以谢。 16 革舜的长子是细布业。 17 以利以谢只有一个儿子利哈比雅,但利哈比雅子孙众多。 18 以斯哈的长子是示罗密。 19 希伯仑的长子是耶利雅,次子是亚玛利亚,三子是雅哈悉,四子是耶加缅。 20 乌薛的长子是米迦,次子是耶西雅。
21 米拉利的儿子是抹利、姆示。抹利的儿子是以利亚撒、基士。 22 以利亚撒终生没有儿子,只有女儿,同族人基士的儿子娶了她们为妻。 23 姆示的三个儿子是末力、以得和耶利摩。 24 以上是利未各宗族的子孙,他们登记在各自族长的名下,凡二十岁以上的男子都在耶和华的殿里任职。 25 大卫说:“以色列的上帝耶和华已使祂的子民安享太平,祂永远住在耶路撒冷。 26 利未人再不用抬圣幕和其中的器皿了。” 27 按照大卫临终时的嘱咐,二十岁以上的利未人都已被统计。 28 他们的任务是帮助亚伦的子孙在耶和华的殿里司职,管理殿的院子和厢房,负责洁净圣物等事务。 29 他们还负责供饼、做素祭的细面粉、无酵薄饼的调和、烤制、分量和尺寸。 30 他们每天早晚要肃立、颂赞耶和华, 31 每逢安息日、朔日[a]或其他节期,他们要按照规定的数目将燔祭献给耶和华, 32 并负责看守会幕和圣所,帮助他们的亲族——亚伦的子孙在耶和华的殿里供职。

1 Chronicles 23
King James Version
23 So when David was old and full of days, he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
2 And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
3 Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward: and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.
4 Of which, twenty and four thousand were to set forward the work of the house of the Lord; and six thousand were officers and judges:
5 Moreover four thousand were porters; and four thousand praised the Lord with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith.
6 And David divided them into courses among the sons of Levi, namely, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7 Of the Gershonites were, Laadan, and Shimei.
8 The sons of Laadan; the chief was Jehiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
9 The sons of Shimei; Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the chief of the fathers of Laadan.
10 And the sons of Shimei were, Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
11 And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they were in one reckoning, according to their father's house.
12 The sons of Kohath; Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
13 The sons of Amram; Aaron and Moses: and Aaron was separated, that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons for ever, to burn incense before the Lord, to minister unto him, and to bless in his name for ever.
14 Now concerning Moses the man of God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.
15 The sons of Moses were, Gershom, and Eliezer.
16 Of the sons of Gershom, Shebuel was the chief.
17 And the sons of Eliezer were, Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had none other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
18 Of the sons of Izhar; Shelomith the chief.
19 Of the sons of Hebron; Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
20 Of the sons of Uzziel; Micah the first and Jesiah the second.
21 The sons of Merari; Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli; Eleazar, and Kish.
22 And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters: and their brethren the sons of Kish took them.
23 The sons of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24 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.
25 For David said, The Lord God of Israel hath given rest unto his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever:
26 And also unto the Levites; they shall no more carry the tabernacle, nor any vessels of it for the service thereof.
27 For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from twenty years old and above:
28 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;
29 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;
30 And to stand every morning to thank and praise the Lord, and likewise at even:
31 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:
32 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.
