It seems that the people appointed the men because the people of Judah were grateful for the priests and Levites who were serving.

The Levites and priests were not just standing, they were serving in their roles. The meaning can be made explicit. Alternate translation: "who were standing before them serving God" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
