Tree Of Life Version

Nehemiah 12:44-47 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

44. On that day men were appointed over the storehouses for the offerings, firstfruits and tithes. They were to gather into them the portions from the fields of the cities required by the Torah for the kohanim and the Levites. For Judah delighted in the kohanim and in the Levites who were ministering.

45. They kept the ceremonial functions of their God and the ceremony of the purification according to the command of David and of Solomon his son.

46. For of old, in the days of David and Asaph, there were leaders of the singers who sang songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.

47. So in the days of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, all Israel gave daily portions for the singers and the gatekeepers. They also set apart the portion for the Levites, and the Levites set apart the portion for the sons of Aaron.
