And their number, with their brethren — taught in the song of Jehovah, all who are intelligent — is two hundred, eighty and eight.
8 Abatsha labadala ngokufanayo, abafundisayo lababefunda, baphosa inkatho.
And they cause to fall lots — charge over-against [charge], as well the small as the great, the intelligent with the learner.
