The Levites sought out and the sons of the singers gathered for the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem
예루살렘 성곽 봉헌식을 위하여 찾아 데려온 레위 사람들과 모여 온 노래하는 자들
Nehemiah 12:27–30: the text says, “At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem to keep the dedication with gladness, both with giving thanks and with singing, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and with harps. The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain around Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites; also from Beth Gilgal and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth, for the singers had built themselves villages around Jerusalem.” The priests and the Levites purify themselves; and they purify the people, the gates, and the wall. The Korean Revised Version gives the seeking of 12:27 no subject (각처에서 레위 사람들을 찾아, the Levites were sought out of every place), where WEB reads “they sought”, and reads 노래하는 자들이 (the singers) where WEB reads “The sons of the singers” (12:28).
