RF CH2 8:14 And, as his father David had Decreed, he set up the Courses for the Services of the Priests, and the Levites and their Officers, to give praise and sing in association with the Priests regularly day by day; with the Doorkeepers in courses from Gate to Gate, as David the MAN of GOD had commanded.
