These were the sons of Levi after their fathers' houses, even the heads of ancestral houses of those who were counted individually, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from twenty years old and upward.

For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were numbered, from twenty years old and upward.

But David did not take the number of them from twenty years old and under, because the LORD had said he would increase Israel like the stars of the sky.

Now the children of Israel after their number, the heads of ancestral houses and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and their officers who served the king, in any matter of the divisions which came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year?of every division were twenty-four thousand.

the twenty-first to Jachin, the twenty-second to Gamul,

the twenty-third to Delaiah, the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.
