Nehemiah 12:45 in Context — Nehemiah 12

43 E sacrificaram naquele dia grandes sacrifícios, e alegraram-se; porque Deus os tinha alegrado muito; alegraram-se também a mulheres e as crianças; e o júbilo de Jerusalém foi ouvido até de longe.

44 Também naquele dia foram postos homens sobre as câmaras para os tesouros, as ofertas alçadas, as primícias, e os dízimos, para juntarem nelas, dos campos das cidades, as porções da lei para os sacerdotes e os levitas; porque Judá estava alegre por causa dos sacerdotes e dos levitas que estavam servindo ali.

45 E faziam a guarda de seu Deus, e a guarda da purificação, como também os cantores e os porteiros, conforme o mandamento de Davi e de seu filho Salomão.

46 Porque nos dias de Davi e de Asafe, desde a antiguidade, havia chefes dos cantores, e cânticos de louvor e de ações de graças a Deus.

47 E todo Israel nos dias de Zorobabel, e nos dias de Neemias, dava as porções dos cantores e dos porteiros, cada uma em seu dia; e consagravam [porções] aos levitas, e os levitas [as] consagravam aos filhos de Arão.
