1When David was old and full of years, he installed his son Solomon as king over Israel.
1大衛 年紀老邁，日子滿足，就立他兒子 所羅門 作 以色列 的王。
2Then he gathered all the leaders of Israel, as well as the priests and Levites.
2大衛 招聚 以色列 的眾首領和祭司 利未 人。
3The Levites thirty years of age or older were counted, and the total number of men was 38,000.
3利未 人從三十歲以外的都被數點，他們男丁的數目共有三萬八千；
4“Of these,” said David, “24,000 are to oversee the work of the house of the LORD, 6,000 are to be officers and judges,
4其中有二萬四千人管理耶和華殿的事，有六千人作官長和士師，
54,000 are to be gatekeepers, and 4,000 are to praise the LORD with the instruments I have made for giving praise.”
5有四千人作守門的，又有四千人用 大衛 所做的樂器頌讚耶和華。
6Then David divided the Levites into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershom, Kohath, and Merari.

10示每 的兒子是 雅哈 、 細拿 、 耶烏施 、 比利亞 共四人。
11Jahath was the first and Zizah was the second; but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they were counted as one family and received a single assignment.

12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel—four in all.

13暗蘭 的兒子是 亞倫 、 摩西 。 亞倫 和他的子孫分出來，好分別至聖的物，在耶和華面前燒香、事奉他，奉他的名祝福，直到永遠。

24以上 利未 子孫作族長的，照着男丁的數目，從二十歲以外，都辦耶和華殿的事務。
25For David had said, “The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to His people and has come to dwell in Jerusalem forever.
25大衛 說：「耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝已經使他的百姓平安，他永遠住在 耶路撒冷 。
26So now the Levites no longer need to carry the tabernacle or any of the articles for its service.”
26利未 人不必再抬帳幕和其中所用的一切器皿了。」
27For according to the final instructions of David, the Levites twenty years of age or older were counted,
27照着 大衛 臨終所吩咐的， 利未 人從二十歲以外的都被數點。
28but their duty was to assist the descendants of Aaron with the service of the house of the LORD, being responsible for the courts and chambers, the purification of all the holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God,
28他們的職任是服事 亞倫 的子孫，在耶和華的殿和院子，並屋中辦事，潔淨一切聖物，就是辦上帝殿的事務，
29as well as for the rows of the showbread, the fine flour for the grain offering, the wafers of unleavened bread, the baking, the mixing, and all measurements of quantity and size.
29並管理陳設餅，素祭的細麵，或無酵薄餅，或用盤烤，或用油調和的物，又管理各樣的升斗尺度；
30They were also to stand every morning to give thanks and praise to the LORD, and likewise in the evening.
30每日早晚，站立稱謝讚美耶和華，
31Whenever burnt offerings were presented to the LORD on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts, they were to serve regularly before the LORD in the numbers prescribed for them.
31又在安息日、月朔，並節期，按數照例，將燔祭常常獻給耶和華；
32So the Levites were to carry out the responsibilities for the Tent of Meeting and the Holy Place, and, under their brothers the descendants of Aaron, the service of the house of the LORD.
32又看守會幕和聖所，並守 耶和華 吩咐他們弟兄 亞倫 子孫的，辦耶和華殿的事。
