Nehemiah 10:34

And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law:

KJV

Sortes ergo misimus super oblationem lignorum inter sacerdotes, et Levitas, et populum, ut inferrentur in domum Dei nostri per domos patrum nostrorum, per tempora, a temporibus anni usque ad annum : ut arderent super altare Domini Dei nostri, sicut scriptum est in lege Moysi :

Vulgate

καὶ κλήρους ἐβάλομεν περὶ κλήρου ξυλοφορίας οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευεῖται καὶ ὁ λαὸς ἐνέγκαι εἰς οἶκον θεοῦ ἡμῶν, εἰς οἶκον πατριῶν ἡμῶν, εἰς καιροὺς χρόνων ἐνιαυτὸν κατ’ ἐνιαυτόν, ἐκκαῦσαι περὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν, ὡς γέγραπται ἐν βιβλίῳ·

LXX

And we cast lots, the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood-offering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers’ houses, at times appointed, year by year, to burn upon the altar of Jehovah our God, as it is written in the law;
