2 Mambo Ya Nyakati 34:12

Watu wakafanya kazi kwa uaminifu. Waliokuwa wamewekwa juu yao ili kuwaelekeza ni Yahathi na Obadia, Walawi wa uzao wa Merari, Zekaria na Meshulamu, waliotoka kwenye uzao wa Kohathi. Walawi wote waliokuwa na ufundi wa kupiga ala za uimbaji,

And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of musick.
