1 Chronicles 23:1–25:31
1And David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel in his stead. 2And he assembled all the chief men of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites. 3And the Levites numbered [themselves] from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls amounted to thirty and eight thousand men. 4Of the overseers over the works of the house of the Lord [there were] twenty-four thousand, and [there were] six thousand scribes and judges; 5and four thousand door-keepers, and four thousand to praise the Lord with instruments which he made to praise the Lord. 6And David divided them [into] daily courses, for the sons of Levi, for Gedson, Caath, and Merari. 7And for [the family of] Gedson, Edan, and Semei. 8The sons of Edan [were] Jeiel, the chief, and Zethan, and Joel, three. 9The sons of Semei; Salomith, Jeiel, and Dan, three: these [were] the chiefs of the families of Edan. 10And to the sons of Semei, Jeth, and Ziza, and Joas, and Beria: these [were] the four sons of Semei. 11And Jeth was the chief, and Ziza the second: and Joas and Beria did not multiply sons, and they became [only] one reckoning according to the house of their father. 12The sons of Caath; Ambram, Isaar, Chebron, Oziel, four. 13The sons of Ambram; Aaron and Moses: and Aaron was appointed for the consecration of the most holy things, he and his sons for ever, to burn incense before the Lord, to minister and bless in his name for ever. 14And [as for] Moses the man of God, his sons were reckoned to the tribe of Levi. 15The sons of Moses; Gersam, and Eliezer. 16The sons of Gersam; Subael the chief. 17And the sons of Eliezer were, Rabia the chief: and Eliezer had no other sons; but the sons of Rabia were very greatly multiplied. 18The sons of Isaar; Salomoth the chief. 19The sons of Chebron; Jeria the chief, Amaria the second, Jeziel the third, Jekemias the fourth. 20The sons of Oziel; Micha the chief, and Isia the second. 21The sons of Merari; Mooli, and Musi: the sons of Mooli; Eleazar, and Kis. 22And Eleazar died, and he had no sons, but daughters: and the sons of Kis, their brethren, took them. 23The sons of Musi; Mooli, and Eder, and Jarimoth, three. 24These [are] the sons of Levi according to the houses of their fathers; chiefs of their families according to their numbering, according to the number of their names, according to their polls, doing the works of service of the house of the Lord, from twenty years old and upward. 25For David said, The Lord God of Israel has given rest to his people, and has taken up his abode in Jerusalem for ever. 26And the Levites bore not the tabernacle, and all the vessels of it for its service. 27For by the last words of David was the number of the Levites [taken] from twenty years old and upward. 28For he appointed them to wait on Aaron, to minister in the house of the Lord, over the courts, and over the chambers, and over the purification of all the holy things, and over the works of the service of the house of God; 29and for the shew-bread, and for the fine flour of the meat-offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for the fried cake, and for the dough, and for every measure; 30and to stand in the morning to praise and give thanks to the Lord, and so in the evening; 31and [to be] over all the whole-burnt-offerings that were offered up to the Lord on the sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts, by number, according to the order [given] to them, continually before the Lord. 32And they are to keep the charge of the tabernacle of witness, and the charge of the holy place, and the charges of the sons of Aaron their brethren, to minister in the house of the Lord. Chapter 241And [they number] the sons of Aaron in [their] division, Nadab, and Abiud, and Eleazar, and Ithamar. 2And Nadab and Abiud died before their father, and they had no sons: so Eleazar and Ithamar the sons of Aaron ministered as priests. 3And David distributed them, even Sadoc of the sons of Eleazar, and Achimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their numbering, according to their service, according to the houses of their fathers. 4And there were found [among] the sons of Eleazar more chiefs of the mighty ones, than of the sons of Ithamar: and he divided them, sixteen heads of families to the sons of Eleazar, eight according to [their] families to the sons of Ithamar. 5And he divided them according to their lots, one with the other; for there were those who had charge of the holy things, and those who had charge of the [house] of the Lord among the sons of Eleazar, and among the sons of Ithamar. 6And Samaias the son of Nathanael, the scribe, [of the family] of Levi, wrote them down before the king, and the princes, and Sadoc the priest, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar [were present]; and the heads of the families of the priests and the Levites, each of a household [were assigned] one to Eleazar, and one to Ithamar. 7And the first lot came out to Joarim, the second to Jedia, 8the third to Charib, the fourth to Seorim, 9the fifth to Melchias, the sixth to Meiamin, 10the seventh to Cos, the eighth to Abia, 11the ninth to Jesus, the tenth to Sechenias, 12the eleventh to Eliabi, the twelfth to Jacim, 13the thirteenth to Oppha, the fourteenth to Jesbaal, 14the fifteenth to Belga, the sixteenth to Emmer, 15the seventeenth to Chezin, the eighteenth to Aphese, 16the nineteenth to Phetæa, the twentieth to Ezekel, 17the twenty-first to Achim, the twenty-second to Gamul, 18the twenty-third to Adallai, the twenty-fourth to Maasai. 19This [is] their numbering according to their service to go into the house of the Lord, according to their appointment by the hand of Aaron their father, as the Lord God of Israel commanded. 20And for the sons of Levi that were left, [even] for the sons of Ambram, Sobael: for the sons of Sobael, Jedia. 21For Raabia, the chief [was Isaari], 22and for Isaari, Salomoth: for the sons of Salomoth, Jath. 23The sons of Ecdiu; Amadia the second, Jaziel the third, Jecmoam the fourth. 24For the sons of Oziel, Micha: the sons of Micha; Samer. 25The brother of Micha; Isia, the son of Isia; Zacharia. 26The sons of Merari, Mooli, and Musi: the sons of Ozia, 27[That is, the sons] of Merari by Ozia,—his sons [were] Isoam, and Sacchur, and Abai. 28To Mooli [were born] Eleazar, and Ithamar; and Eleazar died, and had no sons. 29For Kis; the sons of Kis; Jerameel. 30And the sons of Musi; Mooli, and Eder, and Jerimoth. These [were] the sons of the Levites according to the houses of their families. 31And they also received lots as their brethren the sons of Aaron before the king; Sadoc also, and Achimelech, and the chiefs of the families of the priests and of the Levites, principal heads of families, even as their younger brethren. Chapter 251And king David and the captains of the host appointed to their services the sons of Asaph, and of Æman, and of Idithun, prophesiers with harps, and lutes, and cymbals: and their number was according to their polls serving in their ministrations. 2The sons of Asaph; Sacchur, Joseph, and Nathanias, and Erael: the sons of Asaph [were] next the king. 3To Idithun [were reckoned] the sons of Idithun, Godolias, and Suri, and Iseas, and Asabias, and Matthathias, six after their father Idithun, sounding loudly on the harp thanksgiving and praise to the Lord. 4To Æman [were reckoned] the sons of Æman, Bukias, and Matthanias, and Oziel, and Subael, and Jerimoth, and Ananias, and Anan, and Heliatha, and Godollathi, and Rometthiezer, and Jesbasaca, and Mallithi, and Otheri, and Meazoth. 5All these [were] the sons of Æman the king's chief player in the praises of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave to Æman fourteen sons, and three daughters. 6All these sang hymns with their father in the house of God, with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, for the service of the house of God, near the king, and Asaph, and Idithun, and Æman. 7And the number of them after their brethren, those instructed to sing to God, every one that understood [singing] was two hundred and eighty-eight. 8And they also cast lots for the daily courses, for the great and the small [of them], of the perfect ones and the learners. 9And the first lot of his sons and of his brethren came forth to Asaph the son of Joseph, [namely], Godolias: the second Heneia, his sons and his brethren [being] twelve. 10The third Zacchur, his sons and his brethren [were] twelve: 11the fourth Jesri, his sons and his brethren [were] twelve: 12the fifth Nathan, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 13the sixth Bukias, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 14the seventh Iseriel, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 15the eighth Josia, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 16the ninth Matthanias, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 17the tenth Semeia, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 18the eleventh Asriel, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 19the twelfth Asabia, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 20the thirteenth Subael, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 21the fourteenth Matthathias, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 22the fifteenth Jerimoth, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 23the sixteenth Anania, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 24the seventeenth Jesbasaca, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 25the eighteenth Ananias, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 26the nineteenth Mallithi, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 27the twentieth Heliatha, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 28the twenty-first Otheri, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 29the twenty-second Godollathi, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 30the twenty-third Meazoth, his sons and his brethren, twelve: 31the twenty-fourth Rometthiezer, his sons and his brethren, twelve.

MT Psalm 78 = LXX Psalm 77 (standard offset).
40How often did they provoke him in the wilderness, [and] anger him in a dry land! 41Yea, they turned back, and tempted God, and provoked the Holy One of Israel. 42They remembered not his hand, the day in which he delivered them from the hand of the oppressor. 43How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Tanes: 44and had changed their rivers into blood; and their streams, that they should not drink. 45He sent against them the dog-fly, and it devoured them; and the frog, and it spoiled them. 46And he gave their fruit to the canker worm, and their labours to the locust. 47He killed their vines with hail, and their sycamores with frost. 48And he gave up their cattle to hail, and their substance to the fire. 49He sent out against them the fury of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and affliction, a message by evil angels. 50He made a way for his wrath; he spared not their souls from death, but consigned their cattle to death; 51and smote every first-born in the land of Egypt; the first-fruits of their labours in the tents of Cham. 52And he removed his people like sheep; he led them as a flock in the wilderness. 53And he guided them with hope, and they feared not: but the sea covered their enemies. 54And he brought them in to the mountain of his sanctuary, this mountain which his right hand had purchased. 55And he cast out the nations from before them, and made them to inherit by a line of inheritance, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

Proverbs 20:3
3[It is] a glory to a man to turn aside from railing; but every fool is entangled with such matters.
New TestamentKing James Version
Acts 9:22–43
22But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ. 23And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him: 24But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him. 25Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket. 26And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple. 27But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 28And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. 29And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him. 30Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus. 31Then had the churches rest throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied. 32And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. 33And there he found a certain man named Eneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy. 34And Peter said unto him, Eneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately. 35And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord. 36Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. 37And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber. 38And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them. 39Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them. 40But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up. 41And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive. 42And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord. 43And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.
