48Their kinsmen the Levites were appointed for all the service of the tabernacle of the house of God.
49But Aaron and his sons offered on the altar of burnt offering and on the altar of incense, for all the work of the Most Holy Place, and to make atonement for Israel, in accordance with everything that Moses the servant of God had commanded.
50These are the sons of Aaron: Eleazar his son, Phinehas his son, Abishua his son,

55to them they gave Hebron in the land of Judah and its pasture lands around it;
56but they gave the fields of the city and its settlements to Caleb the son of Jephunneh.

31These are the men David put in charge of the music in the Lord’s temple after the ark came to rest there.
32They ministered with song in front of the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, until Solomon built the Lord’s temple in Jerusalem, and they performed their task according to the regulations given to them.
48Their relatives, the Levites, were assigned to all the service of the tabernacle, God’s temple.
49But Aaron and his sons did all the work of the most holy place. They presented the offerings on the altar of burnt offerings and on the altar of incense to make atonement for Israel according to all that Moses the servant of God had commanded.
54These were the places assigned to Aaron’s descendants from the Kohathite family for their settlements in their territory, because the first lot was for them.
55They were given Hebron in the land of Judah and its surrounding pasturelands,
56but the fields and settlements around the city were given to Caleb son of Jephunneh.
57Aaron’s descendants were given: Hebron (a city of refuge), Libnah and its pasturelands, Jattir, Eshtemoa and its pasturelands,
58Hilen and its pasturelands, Debir and its pasturelands,

32They ministered with music at the Tabernacle until Solomon built the Temple of the Lord in Jerusalem. They carried out their work, following all the regulations handed down to them.
33These are the men who served, along with their sons: Heman the musician was from the clan of Kohath. His genealogy was traced back through Joel, Samuel,
34Elkanah, Jeroham, Eliel, Toah,
35Zuph, Elkanah, Mahath, Amasai,
36Elkanah, Joel, Azariah, Zephaniah,

55This territory included Hebron and its surrounding pasturelands in Judah,
56but the fields and outlying areas belonging to the city were given to Caleb son of Jephunneh.
57So the descendants of Aaron were given the following towns, each with its pasturelands: Hebron (a city of refuge), Libnah, Jattir, Eshtemoa,
58Holon, Debir,
59Ain, Juttah, and Beth-shemesh.
60And from the territory of Benjamin they were given Gibeon, Geba, Alemeth, and Anathoth, each with its pasturelands. So thirteen towns were given to the descendants of Aaron.
