Verse 31 is found in chapter 24 of 1 Chronicles. The other descendants of Levi are organized according to their families and also by lot. The principle of organization extends beyond the priests to the entire Levitical service. Genealogy becomes here a practical structure for assigning responsibilities within the temple.

Und man warf für sie auch das Los neben ihren Brüdern, den Kindern Aaron, vor dem König David und Zadok und Ahimelech und vor den Obersten der Vaterhäuser unter den Priestern und Leviten, für den jüngsten Bruder ebensowohl als für den Obersten in den Vaterhäusern.
Estos también echaron suertes, como sus hermanos los hijos de Aarón, delante del rey David, y de Sadoc y de Ahimelech, y de los príncipes de las familias de los sacerdotes y Levitas: el principal de los padres igualmente que el menor de sus hermanos.
También ellos echaron suertes, al igual que sus hermanos, los descendientes de Aarón, ante el rey David, Sadoc, Ahimelec y los jefes de las familias paternas de los sacerdotes y de los levitas. El jefe de familia participaba igual que el menor de sus hermanos.
Eux aussi, comme leurs frères, les fils d'Aaron, ils tirèrent au sort devant le roi David, Tsadok et Achimélec, et les chefs des maisons paternelles des sacrificateurs et des Lévites. Il en fut ainsi pour chaque chef de maison comme pour le moindre de ses frères.
E tirarono anch’essi le sorti, al pari de’ figliuoli d’Aaronne, lor fratelli, in presenza del re Davide, e di Sadoc, e d’Ahimelec, e de’ capi delle famiglie paterne de’ sacerdoti, e de’ Leviti; le principali delle case paterne essendo pareggiate ad altre più piccole de’ lor fratelli
Estes também lançaram sortes como seus irmãos, os filhos de Arão, perante o rei Davi, e Zadoque, e Aimeleque, e os chefes das famílias entre os sacerdotes e entre os levitas; assim fizeram, tanto os pais principais como os irmãos menores.
他們在 大衛 王和 撒督 ,以及 亞希米勒 與祭司和 利未 人的族長面前也抽籤,正如他們弟兄 亞倫 的子孫一樣。各族的族長與最年輕的兄弟都一樣。
