2 Chronicles 23:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the [a]chief fathers of Israel: and they came to Jerusalem.
3 And all the congregation made a covenant with the King in the house of God: and he said unto them, Behold, the King’s son must reign, (A)as the Lord hath said of the sons of David.
4 This is it that ye shall do, The third part of you that come on the Sabbath of the Priests, and the Levites, shall be porters of the doors.
