| 28 | The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites; | Ne 6:2 |

| 37 | By the spring gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the water gate eastward. | Ne 2:14 Ne 3:15 Ne 3:16 |
| 38 | The other company of those who gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people, on the wall, above the tower of the furnaces, even to the broad wall, | Ne 3:11 |
| 39 | and above the gate of Ephraim, and by the old gate, and by the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even to the sheep gate: and they stood still in the gate of the guard. | Ne 8:16 2Ki 14:13 |
| 40 | So stood the two companies of those who gave thanks in the house of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me; | Ne 12:31 Ne 12:32 Ps 42:4 Ps 47:6-9 Ps 134:1-3 |
| 41 | and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets; |
| 42 | and Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. The singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer. | Ps 81:1 Ps 95:1 Ps 98:4-9 Ps 100:1 Ps 100:2 Isa 12:5 Isa 12:6 |
| 43 | They offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced; for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off. | Nm 10:10 Dt 12:11 Dt 12:12 1Ch 29:21 1Ch 29:22 2Ch 7:5-7 2Ch 7:10-7 2Ch 29:35 2Ch 29:36 Ps 27:6 |
| 44 | On that day were men appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the heave-offerings, for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, according to the fields of the cities, the portions appointed by the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites who waited. | Ne 10:37-39 Ne 13:5 Ne 13:12 Ne 13:13 2Ch 13:11 2Ch 13:12 2Ch 31:11-13 |
| 45 | They kept the charge of their God, and the charge of the purification, and [so did] the singers and the porters, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son. | 1Ch 25:1-26 |
| 46 | For in the days of David and Asaph of old there was a chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. | 1Ch 25:1-31 2Ch 29:30 Ps 73:1 Ps 83:1 |
| 47 | All Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, as every day required: and they set apart [that which was] for the Levites; and the Levites set apart [that which was] for the sons of Aaron. | Ne 12:1 Ne 12:12 Ne 12:26 |
