1 Chronicles 27:1-9

1This is the list of the sons (descendants) of Israel, the heads of fathers’ households, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and their officers who served the king in all matters of the divisions which came in and went out month by month throughout the year, each division numbering 24,000:

2Jashobeam the son of Zabdiel was in charge of the first division for the first month; and in his division were 24,000.

3He was descended from Perez, and was chief of all the commanders of the army for the first month.

4Dodai the Ahohite and his division was in charge of the division for the second month, Mikloth was the chief officer; and in his division were 24,000.

5The third commander of the army for the third month was Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada the priest, as chief; and in his division were 24,000.

6This is the Benaiah who was the mighty man of the thirty and was in charge of the thirty; and Ammizabad his son was over his division.

7The fourth, for the fourth month was Asahel the brother of Joab, and Zebadiah his son after him; and in his division were 24,000.

8The fifth, for the fifth month was the commander Shamhuth the Izrahite; and in his division were 24,000.
