2 Chronicles 35:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ Josiah said to the Levites who instructed all Israel and who ware consecrated to the Lord: “Put the sacred Ark in the house built by Solomon, son of David, king of Israel. You no longer need to carry it on your shoulders. Serve now the Lord, your God, and his people Israel. ⁴ Prepare yourselves by families in your ancestral houses, following the directions written by King David of Israel and by his son Solomon.

⁵ “Take your positions in the sanctuary according to the family divisions of the ancestral houses of your brethren, the laity, and let there be one division of Levites for each family division.
