'Support' in the Bible

Moreover, next to him the Tekoites made repairs, but their nobles did not support the work of their masters.

Truly, for forty years you were their support in the waste land, and they were in need of nothing; their clothing did not get old or their feet become tired.

for the command of the king is upon them, and support is for the singers, a matter of a day in its day.

And I saw that the Levites had not been given what was needed for their support; so that the Levites and the music-makers, who did the work, had gone away, everyone to his field.
