Now serve Jehovahyour God, and His people Israel, 4 and prepare by the house of your fathers, according to your courses, by the writing of David the king of Israel, and by the writing of his son Solomon, 5 and stand in the place of holiness, by the divisions of the house of the fathers of your brothers, the sons of the people, and the portion of the house of the father of the Levites; 6 and kill the passover offering and sanctify yourselves, and prepare for your brothers, to do according to the Word of Jehovah, by the hand of Moses. 7 And Josiah lifted up to the sons of the people a flock of lambs and young goats, all for passover offerings, for everyone who was found, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand oxen; these were from the king's substance. 8 And his leaders lifted up for a freewill offering to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites: Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers in the house of God, gave to the priest two thousand and six hundred for passover offerings, andthree hundred oxen. 9 And Conaniah, and Shemaiah, and Nethaneel, his brothers; and Hashabiah, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, chiefs of the Levites, lifted up to the Levites five thousand for passover offerings, and five hundred oxen. 10 And the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their courses, according to the command of the king.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And stand in the holy place,.... The court of the priests, where their ministrations were:
according to the divisions of the families of your brethren the people; of the other tribes, who were according to their families to provide a lamb for the passover:
and after the division of the families of the Levites; who were obliged to observe the same ordinance in their respective families, and for whom, as well as for the other families of Israel, they were to slay the lamb.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The sense of this verse probably is: âSo divide yourselves that, for every distinct family among the people who come to the Passover, there shall be a portion of a Levitical family to minister.â
