22 TheLevites in thedays ofEliashib,Joiada, andJohanan, andJaddua, wererecordedchief of thefathers: also thepriests, to thereign ofDarius the Persian.
23 Thesons ofLevi, thechief of thefathers, werewritten in thebook of thechronicles, even until thedays ofJohanan theson of Eliashib.
24 And thechief of theLevites:Hashabiah,Sherebiah, andJeshua theson ofKadmiel, with theirbrethren over against them, topraise and to givethanks, according to thecommandment ofDavid theman ofGod,ward overagainst ward.
25Mattaniah, andBakbukiah,Obadiah,Meshullam,Talmon,Akkub, wereporterskeeping theward at thethresholds of the gates.
26 These were in thedays ofJoiakim theson ofJeshua, theson ofJozadak, and in thedays ofNehemiah thegovernor, and ofEzra thepriest, the scribe.
27 And at thededication of thewall ofJerusalem theysought theLevites out of all theirplaces, tobring them toJerusalem, tokeep thededication withgladness, both withthanksgivings, and withsinging, withcymbals,psalteries, and with harps.
28 And thesons of thesingers gathered themselvestogether, both out of the plaincountry roundaboutJerusalem, and from thevillages of Netophathi;
29 Also from thehouse ofGilgal, and out of thefields ofGeba andAzmaveth: for thesingers hadbuilded themvillages roundabout Jerusalem.
30 And thepriests and theLevitespurified themselves, andpurified thepeople, and thegates, and the wall.
31 Then I broughtup theprinces ofJudah upon thewall, andappointedtwogreat companies of them that gavethanks, whereof onewent on the righthand upon thewall toward thedung gate:
32 Andafter themwentHoshaiah, andhalf of theprinces of Judah,
33 AndAzariah,Ezra, and Meshullam,
34Judah, andBenjamin, andShemaiah, and Jeremiah,
35 And certain of thepriests'sons withtrumpets; namely,Zechariah theson ofJonathan, theson ofShemaiah, theson ofMattaniah, theson ofMichaiah, theson ofZaccur, theson of Asaph:
36 And hisbrethren,Shemaiah, andAzarael,Milalai,Gilalai,Maai,Nethaneel, andJudah,Hanani, with themusicalinstruments ofDavid theman ofGod, andEzra thescribe before them.
37 And at thefountaingate, which was over against them, they wentup by thestairs of thecity ofDavid, at the goingup of thewall, above thehouse ofDavid, even unto thewatergate eastward.
38 And theother company of them that gavethankswent overagainst them, and Iafter them, and thehalf of thepeople upon thewall, from beyond thetower of thefurnaces even unto thebroad wall;
39 And from above thegate ofEphraim, and above theoldgate, and above thefishgate, and thetower ofHananeel, and thetower ofMeah, even unto thesheepgate: and they stoodstill in theprison gate.
40 Sostood thetwo companies of them that gavethanks in thehouse ofGod, and I, and thehalf of the rulers with me:
41 And thepriests;Eliakim,Maaseiah,Miniamin,Michaiah,Elioenai,Zechariah, andHananiah, with trumpets;
42 AndMaaseiah, andShemaiah, andEleazar, andUzzi, andJehohanan, andMalchijah, andElam, andEzer. And thesingers sangloud, withJezrahiah their overseer.
43 Also thatday theyofferedgreatsacrifices, andrejoiced: forGod had made themrejoice withgreatjoy: thewives also and thechildrenrejoiced: so that thejoy ofJerusalem washeard even afar off.
44 And at thattime weresomeappointed over thechambers for thetreasures, for theofferings, for thefirstfruits, and for thetithes, togather into them out of thefields of thecities theportions of thelaw for thepriests andLevites: forJudahrejoiced for thepriests and for theLevites that waited.
45 And both thesingers and theporterskept theward of theirGod, and theward of thepurification, according to thecommandment ofDavid, and ofSolomon his son.
46 For in thedays ofDavid andAsaph ofold there werechief of thesingers, andsongs ofpraise andthanksgiving unto God.
47 And allIsrael in thedays ofZerubbabel, and in thedays ofNehemiah,gave theportions of thesingers and theporters, everyday hisportion: and theysanctified holy things unto theLevites; and theLevitessanctified them unto thechildren of Aaron.
