But there were not enough priests to skin and cut up all the animals for the burnt offerings. So their relatives, the Levites, helped them until the work was finished and until other priests could make themselves ready for holy service. The Levites were more serious about making themselves ready to serve the Lord. They were more serious than the priests.
The Levite singers stood at the east side of the altar. {\cf2\super [86]} All of the singing groups of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun were there. And their sons and relatives were there also. Those Levite singers were dressed in white linen. {\cf2\super [87]} They had cymbals, {\cf2\super [88]} lyres, {\cf2\super [89]} and harps. There were 120 priests there with those Levite singers. Those 120 priests blew trumpets.
