| 10 | And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them: for the Levites and the singers, that did the work, were fled every one to his field. | I also learned that because the portions for the Levites had not been given to them, all the Levites and singers responsible for performing the service had gone back to their own fields. | And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them; so that the Levites and the singers, that did the work, were fled every one to his field. |
