31 Now these are the men whom David appointed for control of singing[fn] in the house of Yahweh where the ark rested. 32 They were ministering with song before the tabernacle of the tent of assembly[fn] until Solomon built the temple of Yahweh in Jerusalem. And they stood according to their order with respect to their duty. 33 Now these are those who served and their sons.
