Nehemiah 12:45-47

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴⁵ And both the singers and the Levites kept guard of their God, and guard of the purification, according to the commandment of David, and Solomon his son.

⁴⁶ For in the days of old, of David and Asaph, were chief singers and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.

⁴⁷ And in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, all Israel gave portions to the singers and gatekeepers, every day its portion. And they gave the holy things to the Levites. And the Levites gave the holy things to the sons of Aaron.
