2 And hee gathered together all the princes of Israel with the Priestes and the Leuites.

3 And the Leuites were numbred from ye age of thirtie yeere and aboue, and their nomber according to their summe was eight and thirtie thousand men.

Hae kaminawk loe saning pumphaeto hoi ranuih bang, Angraeng ih im ah toksah kami ah kaom, Levi acaeng thungah milu cazin kakun, acaeng zaehoikungnawk ah oh o.
