23. The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth; three in all.

24. These were the sons of Levi according to their ancestral houses, the family heads as they were enrolled one by one according to their names. They performed the work of the service of the house of the Lord beginning at twenty years of age.

25. David said: “The Lord, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people, and has taken up his dwelling in Jerusalem forever.

26. Henceforth the Levites need not carry the tabernacle or any of the equipment for its service.”
