Nehemiah 12:28-36 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

28. And the children of the singers were assembled, both from the plain of Jordan round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites,

29. also from Beth-Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth; for the singers had built themselves hamlets round about Jerusalem.

30. And the priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates and the wall.

31. And I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two great choirs and processions, on the right hand upon the wall towards the dung-gate.

32. And after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah,

33. and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34. Judah and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,

35. and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph;

36. and his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azareel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethaneel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God and Ezra the scribe before them.
