Matthaniah son of Micha, and Jobeb son of Samui,

Of the sons of Simeon mighty for battle, seven thousand one hundred.

And King David and the captains of the army appointed to their services the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who [should] prophesy with harps, lutes, and cymbals; and their number was according to their polls serving in their ministrations.

To Jeduthun [were reckoned] the sons of Jeduthun, Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six after their father Jeduthun, sounding loudly on the harp thanksgiving and praise to the Lord.

All these sang hymns with their father in the house of God, with cymbals, lutes, and harps, for the service of the house of God, near the king, and Asaph, and Jeduthun, and Heman.

And the sons of Asaph the psalm-singers [were] at their post according to the commands of David, and Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun, the prophets of the king. Also, the chiefs and the porters of the several gates-it was not for them to stir from the service of the holy things, for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.

The sons of Salma [were] Bethlehem, the Netophathites, Atroth Beth Joab, and half of the family of Malathi, Esari.

The children of Bethlehem, a hundred and twenty-three; the children of Netopha, fifty-six.

And the sons of the singers were assembled both from the neighborhood round about to Jerusalem, and from the villages,

And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and they purified the people, and the porters, and the wall.
