Outre ceux qui étaient enregistrés comme mâles, depuis l'âge de trois ans et au-dessus; à tous ceux qui entraient dans la maison de l'Éternel, pour les fonctions de chaque jour, selon le service de leurs charges, suivant leurs divisions;
outre ceux qui étaient enregistrés comme mâles dans les généalogies, depuis l'âge de trois ans et au-dessus, à chacun de ceux qui entraient dans la maison de l'Éternel, chaque jour pour l'affaire du jour, pour servir dans leurs charges, selon leurs classes;
Outre cela on fit un dénombrement selon les généalogies des mâles d'entre eux, depuis ceux de trois ans, et au dessus, [savoir] de tous ceux qui entraient dans la maison de l'Eternel, pour y faire ce qu'il y fallait faire chaque jour, selon leur ministère et leurs charges, suivant leurs départements.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Beside their genealogy of males, from three years old and upwards,.... Their office was not only to give to the priests, but to those of their males in their genealogy, who were three years old and upwards; for under that age, according to Kimchi, they were not fit to come into the temple; nor have they knowledge to keep what is put into their hands; nor fit to handle offerings, lest they should defile them; but at that age they might be taught how to hold them, and be used to it; but as for females, he says, they were not admitted at any age:
even unto everyone that entereth into the house of the Lord; of the said age, and in the genealogy and register of the priests:
his daily portion for their service in their charges, according to their courses; food for every day, in consideration of their service in their several wards, according to their courses in turn.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Beside their genealogy of males ... - Some translate it: “Excepting the list of males,” etc. i. e. they distributed to all the members of the priestly families, excepting to those who at the time were performing the duties of their office at Jerusalem. These persons no doubt obtained their share at the temple itself.
