וַיִּפָּקְד֣וּ בַיּוֹם֩ הַה֨וּא אֲנָשִׁ֜ים עַל הַנְּשָׁכ֗וֹת לָאֹצָר֡וֹת לַתְּרוּמ֡וֹת לָרֵאשִׁ֡ית וְלַמַּעַשְׂר֡וֹת לִכְנ֡וֹס בָּהֶ֡ם מִשְּׂדֵ֡י הֶעָרִ֡ים מְנָאוֹת֩ הַתּוֹרָ֨ה לַכֹּהֲנִ֤ים וְלַלְוִיִּם֙ כִּ֣י שִׂמְחַ֣ת יְהוּדָ֔ה עַֽל הַכֹּהֲנִ֥ים וְעַל הַלְוִיִּ֖ם הָֽעֹמְדִֽים׃

King James Version (KJV)

And at that time were some appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that waited.

Modern English

On that day men were appointed over the storerooms, the contributions, the firstfruits, and the tithes, to gather into them the portions required by the Law for the priests and for the Levites from the fields of the towns, for Judah rejoiced over the priests and the Levites who ministered.
