The speaker weighs the silver, the gold, and the vessels to twelve of the chiefs of the priests
말하는 이가 제사장의 두목 중 십 이인에게 은과 금과 기명을 달아서 줌
Ezra 8:24–30: the text says, “Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them, and weighed to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, his counselors, his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered. I weighed into their hand six hundred fifty talents of silver, one hundred talents of silver vessels, one hundred talents of gold, twenty bowls of gold weighing one thousand darics, and two vessels of fine bright bronze, precious as gold.” The speaker (“I”) says to them, “You are holy to the LORD, and the vessels are holy. The silver and the gold are a free will offering to the LORD, the God of your fathers. Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the rooms of the LORD’s house.” The text goes on, “So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver, the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.” At 8:29 the Korean Revised Version reads 레위 사람의 두목들, the chiefs of the Levites, where WEB reads “the Levites”, and puts 삼가 지키라, keep them carefully, at the end of the verse.

24Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,
25and weighed to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, his counselors, his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered.
26I weighed into their hand six hundred fifty talents of silver, one hundred talents of silver vessels, one hundred talents of gold,
27twenty bowls of gold weighing one thousand darics, and two vessels of fine bright bronze, precious as gold.
28I said to them, “You are holy to the LORD, and the vessels are holy. The silver and the gold are a free will offering to the LORD, the God of your fathers.
29Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the rooms of the LORD’s house.”
30So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver, the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
