company

them
that
gave
thanks
went
to meet
them
, and I after
them,
with the
half of
the people ,
upon
the wall, above
the tower of the furnaces,
even
unto
the broad wall,

thanksgiving
choir
proceeded
to the
left
, and I followed
it
with half the people along
the top
of
the
wall, past
the Tower of the Ovens

above
the gate of Ephraim, and

with
me ;

choirs
then
stood

And
they offered great sacrifices that
day
, and
rejoiced;

with
great joy ;
and
the women also
and the
children rejoiced :
so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even
afar off
.

that
day

And on that day were
men appointed over the chambers
for
the treasures
, for
the
heave-offerings
, for
the
first-fruits
, and for
the
tithes ,
to
gather
into
them,
according
to
the
fields
of
the
cities,
the portions appointed
by the law for the priests and Levites :
for
Judah rejoiced for
the priests and for
the
Levites that
waited
.
And on that same
day men were
appointed over the rooms
that
housed
the supplies
, contributions
, firstfruits
, and tithes .
The portions specified
by the Law for the priests and Levites were
gathered
into
these
storerooms
from
the
fields
of
the
villages,
because
Judah rejoiced over
the priests and Levites who
were
serving
.
And
they kept
the charge
of their God ,
and the charge
of the
purification, and
`so
did'
the singers and the
porters
, according
to
the
commandment
of
David ,
and of
Solomon
his son.
They performed
the service
of their God and the service
of purification, along
with
the singers and gatekeepers
, as
David and his son Solomon
had
prescribed
.
For in the days of David and Asaph of
old
there was
a
chief
of
the singers ,
and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto
God.
For long
ago,
in the days of David and Asaph ,
there were
directors
for
the singers and for
the
songs of praise and thanksgiving to
God.
And
all
Israel
in the days of Zerubbabel ,
and in
the
days
of
Nehemiah, gave
the portions of
the singers and the
porters,
as
every
day
required:
and
they set apart
`that
which
was'
for the Levites ;
and the Levites set apart
`that
which
was'
for the sons
of Aaron.
So
in the days of Zerubbabel and Nehemiah, all
Israel
contributed
the daily
portions for
the singers and gatekeepers.
They also
set aside
daily
portions
for the Levites ,
and the Levites set aside
daily
portions
for the descendants
of Aaron.
