More than one tenth of all the active Levites ​ — some 4,000 of them — ​ were assigned as “givers of praise, ” with 288 being“ trained in song to Jehovah, all experts. ” ​ — 1 Chron. 23: 3, 5; 25: 7.
Enam kui kümnendik kõigist teenistuses osalevatest leviitidest – tervelt 4000 – pidid ’ kiitma Jehoovat ’, kusjuures 288 neist olid „õpetatud Jehoovale laulma ” ja„ oskasid ” seda.
