25 Ngokuba uDavide ubesithi, UYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, ubaphumzile abantu bakhe; uhleli eYerusalem kude kuse ephakadeni.
26 Kananjalo ke abaLevi akusafuneki ukuba bawuthwale umnquba, neempahla zawo zonke zenkonzo yawo.
27 Ngokuba ngokwamazwi kaDavide okugqibela, babalwa oonyana bakaLevi, abathabathele kwabaminyaka imashumi mabini bezelwe, kwenyusa.
28 Ngokuba ukuma kwabo kwaba ngasesandleni soonyana baka-Aron, enkonzweni yendlu kaYehova ezintendelezweni, nasemagumbini, nasekuhlanjululweni kwezinto zonke ezingcwele, nasemsebenzini wenkonzo yendlu kaThixo:
29 owezonka ezikrozileyo, nowomgubo ocoliweyo, nowomnikelo wokudla, nowezonkana ezisicaba ezingenagwele, nowezojiweyo ngepani, nowento ekroqiweyo, nowokulinganisa konke ngokukha nangobude;
30 nowokuma imisó ngemisó, bebulela kuye, bemdumisa uYehova, besenjenjalo nangokuhlwa;
31 nowokunyusa onke amadini anyukayo kuYehova ngesabatha, nasekuthwaseni kwenyanga, nangamaxesha amisiweyo, ngenani ngokwesiko lazo, ngamaxesha onke, phambi koYehova;
