Nehemiah 12:47

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, every day his portion: and they sanctified [holy things] unto the Levites; and the Levites sanctified [them] unto the children of Aaron.

And all Israel {H3478} in the days {H3117} of Zerubbabel {H2216}, and in the days {H3117} of Nehemiah {H5166}, gave {H5414} the portions {H4521} of the singers {H7891} and the porters {H7778}, every day {H3117} his portion {H1697}: and they sanctified {H6942} holy things unto the Levites {H3881}; and the Levites {H3881} sanctified {H6942} them unto the children {H1121} of Aaron {H175}.

So in the days of Z'rubavel and in the days of Nechemyah, all Isra'el gave portions to the singers and gatekeepers as required daily. They set aside a portion for the L'vi'im, who, in turn set aside a portion for the descendants of Aharon.

So in the days of Zerubbabel and Nehemiah, all Israel contributed the daily portions for the singers and gatekeepers. They also set aside daily portions for the Levites, and the Levites set aside daily portions for the descendants of Aaron.

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, as every day required: and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.
