21The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
22Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only: and their brothers the sons of Kish took them [to wife].
23The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24These were the sons of Levi after their fathers` houses, even the heads of the fathers` [houses] of those of those who were counted, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the house of Yahweh, from twenty years old and upward.
25For David said, Yahweh, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people; and he dwells in Jerusalem forever:
26and also the Levites shall no more have need to carry the tent and all the vessels of it for the service of it.
27For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were numbered, from twenty years old and upward.
