32 Eles ministravam o louvor diante do tabernáculo, da Tenda do Encontro, até quando Salomão construiu o templo do Senhor em Jerusalém. Eles exerciam suas funções de acordo com as normas estabelecidas.
33 Estes são os que ministravam, junto com seus filhos: Dentre os coatitas: O músico Hemã, filho de Joel, filho de Samuel,

48 Seus parentes, os outros levitas, foram encarregados de cuidar de todo o serviço do tabernáculo, o templo de Deus.
49 Mas era Arão e seus descendentes que cuidavam dos sacrifícios no altar do holocausto e das ofertas no altar de incenso e de todo o serviço do Lugar Santíssimo, e dos sacrifícios de propiciação por Israel, conforme tudo o que Moisés, servo de Deus, tinha ordenado.

52 pai de Meraiote, pai de Amarias, que foi o pai de Aitube,

54 Estas foram as cidades e as regiões dadas aos levitas para nelas habitarem. Dentre os descendentes de Arão, o clã coatita foi sorteado primeiro;
55 foi-lhe dada Hebrom, em Judá, com suas pastagens ao redor.
56 Mas os campos e os povoados em torno da cidade foram dados a Calebe, filho de Jefoné.
57 Assim os descendentes de Arão receberam Hebrom, cidade de refúgio, e Libna, Jatir, Estemoa,
58 Hilém, Debir,
59 Asã, Jutá e Bete-Semes, com suas respectivas pastagens.
60 E da tribo de Benjamim receberam Gibeão, Geba, Alemete e Anatote, com suas respectivas pastagens. Ao todo treze cidades foram distribuídas entre os seus clãs.

63 Para os descendentes de Merari, clã por clã, foram sorteadas doze cidades das tribos de Rúben, de Gade e de Zebulom.
64 Assim os israelitas deram aos levitas essas cidades com suas respectivas pastagens.
