* The sons of Merari ; Mahli , and Mushi . The sons of Mahli ; Eleazar , and Kish . * And Eleazar died , and had no sons , but daughters : and their brethren the sons of Kish took them . * The sons of Mushi ; Mahli , and Eder , and Jeremoth , three . * These were the sons of Levi after the house of their fathers ; even the chief of the fathers , as they were counted by number of names by their polls , that did the work for the service of the house of the LORD , from the age of twenty years and upward . * For David said , The LORD God of Israel hath given rest unto his people , that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever : * And also unto the Levites ; they shall no more carry the tabernacle , nor any vessels of it for the service thereof . * For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from twenty years old and above : * Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD , in the courts , and in the chambers , and in the purifying of all holy things , and the work of the service of the house of God ; * Both for the shewbread , and for the fine flour for meat offering , and for the unleavened cakes , and for that which is baked in the pan , and for that which is fried , and for all manner of measure and size ; * And to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD , and likewise at even ; * And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the LORD in the sabbaths , in the new moons , and on the set feasts , by number , according to the order commanded unto them , continually before the LORD : * And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation , and the charge of the holy place , and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren , in the service of the house of the LORD .
