RF NEH 12:28 They consequently collected the descendants of the Singers from the district surrounding Jerusalem,
RF NEH 12:29 and from the towns in Nitof, and from Beth-Gilgal, and from the plains of Geba, and Hazmavoth,—for those towns had been built for the Singers around Jerusalem.

RF NEH 12:44 Treasuries Appointed for the Temple.
At the same period men were appointed over the Treasures, the Presentations, the First-fruits and the Tythes, to collect them from the fields and villages the legal portions for the Priests and Levites, for Judea was glad of the Appointment of the Priests and Levites,
RF NEH 12:45 who guarded the Ordinances of GOD, and the Ordinances of purity, with the Singers, and Doorkeepers, as David, and Solomon his son ordered.
RF NEH 12:46 For formerly, from the days of David there were Chief Choristers, who sang praises to GOD.
RF NEH 12:47 Consequently all Israel in the times of Zerubabel, and in the times of NEHEMIAH paid the Singers and the Doorkeepers a daily salary, and consecrated the Levites, and the Levites consecrated the Descendants of Aaron.
