2 Chronicles 31:12Easy To Read VersionThen the priests brought the offerings, tithes, {\cf2\super [387]} and other things that were to be given only to the Lord. All those things collected were put in the storerooms in the temple. Conaniah the Levite was in charge of all those things that were collected. Shimei was second in charge of those things. Shimei was Conaniah’s brother. See the chapter |
Some of Aaron’s descendants, {\cf2\super [388]} the priests, had some farm fields near the towns where the Levites were living. And some of Aaron’s descendants were also living in the towns. Men were chosen by name in each of those towns to give part of the collection to these descendants of Aaron. Males and all those named in the family histories of the Levites got part of the collection.
The people of Israel and the Levites must bring their gifts to the storerooms. They are to bring their gifts of grain, new wine, and oil. All the things for the temple are kept in those storerooms. And that is where the priests that are on duty stay. And also the singers and gatekeepers stay there.\par
