23:1Now when David was old and full of days, he made Solomon his son king over Israel. Compare
23:2And he gathered all the leaders of Israel and the priests and the Levites. Compare
23:3And the Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward; and their number, head by head and man by man, was thirty-eight thousand. Compare
23:4Of these twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of Jehovah, and six thousand were officers and judges, Compare
23:5And four thousand were gatekeepers, and four thousand were to praise Jehovah with the instruments that I have made for praising, said David. Compare

23:11And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second. But Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons; therefore they became a father's house in one reckoning. Compare
23:12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four. Compare
23:13The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated that he might sanctify the most holy things forever, he and his sons, by burning incense before Jehovah, by ministering to Him, and by blessing in His name forever. Compare

23:24These were the sons of Levi according to their fathers' houses, the heads of the fathers' houses of those who had been counted, by the number of names, head by head, who did the work for the service of the house of Jehovah, from twenty years old and upward. Compare

23:29And for the rows of bread and the fine flour of the meal offering and the unleavened wafers and what is baked in the pan and what is mixed with oil and all measures of quantity and size; Compare
