Nehemiah 12:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 And in the dedication of the wall at Jerusalem, they sought the Levites out of all their places to bring them to Jerusalem to keep the dedication and gladness, both with thanksgivings and with songs, cymbals, viols, and with harps.
28 Then the [a]singers gathered themselves together both from the plain country about Jerusalem, and from the villages of [b]Netophathi,
29 And from the house of Gilgal, and out of the countries of Geba, and Azmaveth: for the singers had built them villages round about Jerusalem.
