1 Chronicles 23:26-28

International Children’s Bible

²⁶ So the Levites don’t need to carry the Holy Tent. They don’t need to carry any of the things used in its services anymore.” ²⁷ David’s last instructions were to count the Levites. All who were 20 years old and older were counted.

²⁸ The Levites had the job of helping Aaron’s descendants. They helped in the service of the Temple of the Lord. They cared for the Temple courtyard and side rooms. They had the job of making all the holy things pure. Their job was to serve in the Temple of God.
