| أَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَلَمْ يُسَخِّرْ مِنْهُمْ سُلَيْمَانُ أَحَداً، لأَنَّ مِنْهُمْ كَانَ يَتَأَلَّفُ رِجَالُ الْقِتَالِ وَرُؤَسَاءُ قُوَّادِهِ وَقَادَةُ مَرْكَبَاتِهِ وَفُرْسَانُهُ. | ٩ 9 |

| وَنَظَّمَ خَدَمَاتِ وَوَاجِبَاتِ فِرَقِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَاللّاوِيِّينَ بِمُقْتَضَى مَا رَتَّبَهُ أَبُوهُ دَاوُدُ، فَكَانَ اللّاوِيُّونَ يَقُومُونَ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ وَالْخِدْمَةِ تَحْتَ إِشْرَافِ الْكَهَنَةِ، وَحِرَاسَةِ الأَبْوَابِ حَسَبَ فِرَقِهِمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ بِيَوْمِهِ، تَنْفِيذاً لأَوَامِرِ دَاوُدَ رَجُلِ اللهِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded.
| وَلَمْ يَنْحَرِفُوا عَنْ تَنْفِيذِ مَا أَوْصَى الْمَلِكُ بِهِ الْكَهَنَةَ وَاللاوِيِّينَ بِشَأْنِ الْمَخَازِنِ وَسِوَاهَا مِنَ الأُمُورِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And they departed not from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.
