Nehemiah 12:45-47
New King James Version
45 Both the singers and the gatekeepers kept the charge of their God and the charge of the purification, (A)according to the command of David and Solomon his son. 46 For in the days of David (B)and Asaph of old there were chiefs of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. 47 In the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah all Israel gave the portions for the singers and the gatekeepers, a portion for (C)each day. (D)They also [a]consecrated holy things for the Levites, (E)and the Levites consecrated them for the children of Aaron.

Nehemiah 12:45-47
New International Version
45 They performed the service of their God and the service of purification, as did also the musicians and gatekeepers, according to the commands of David(A) and his son Solomon.(B) 46 For long ago, in the days of David and Asaph,(C) there had been directors for the musicians and for the songs of praise(D) and thanksgiving to God. 47 So in the days of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, all Israel contributed the daily portions for the musicians and the gatekeepers. They also set aside the portion for the other Levites, and the Levites set aside the portion for the descendants of Aaron.(E)
