Context
41na makuhani wafuatao: Eliakimu, Maaseya, Miniamini, Mikaya, Elioenai, Zekaria na Hanania wakiwa na tarumbeta zao, 42na pia Maaseya, Shemaya, Eleazari, Uzi, Yehohanani, Malkiya, Elamu na Ezeri. Makundi haya yaliimba chini ya uongozi wa Yezrahia. 43Siku hiyo watu walitoa dhabihu nyingi, wakishangilia kwa sababu Mungu aliwapa furaha kuu. Wanawake na watoto walishangilia pia. Sauti ya kushangilia huko Yerusalemu iliweza kusikika mbali sana. 44Wakati huo watu walichaguliwa kuwa wasimamizi wa vyumba vya ghala kwa ajili ya matoleo, malimbuko na zaka. Kutoka kwenye yale mashamba yaliyozunguka miji walipaswa walete kwenye ghala mafungu kama sheria ilivyoamuru kwa ajili ya makuhani na Walawi, kwa kuwa Yuda alifurahishwa na huduma ya makuhani na Walawi. 45Walifanya ibada ya Mungu wao na ibada ya utakaso, nao waimbaji na walinzi wa lango wakafanya hivyo pia, kufuatana na amri za Daudi na Solomoni mwanawe.
