1 Chronicles 23:26-28

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁶ So the Levites don’t need to carry the Holy Tent or any of the things used in its services anymore.”

²⁷ David’s last instructions for the Israelites were to count the descendants from the tribe of Levi. They counted the Levite men who were 20 years old and older.

²⁸ The Levites had the job of helping Aaron’s descendants in the service of the Lord’s Temple. They also cared for the Temple courtyard and the side rooms in the Temple. And they made sure all the holy things were kept pure. It was their job to serve in God’s Temple.
