1 Chronicles 23:1-19

1And David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.

2And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.

3And the Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward; and their number, by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.

4Of these, twenty-four thousand were to preside over the work of the house of Jehovah; and six thousand were officers and judges;

5and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised Jehovah with the instruments which I made, [said David,] to praise [therewith].

6And David divided them into courses according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

7Of the Gershonites: Laadan and Shimei.

8The sons of Laadan: the head was Jehiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.

9The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the chief fathers of Laadan.

10And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Ziza, and Jeush, and Beriah. These were the four sons of Shimei.

11And Jahath was the head, and Ziza the second; and Jeush and Beriah had not many sons: as father's house, therefore, they were reckoned as one.

12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Jizhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.

13The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. And Aaron was separated, that he should be hallowed as most holy, he and his sons for ever, to offer before Jehovah, to do service to him, and to bless in his name for ever.

14— And as to Moses the man of 1God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.

15The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.

16The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the head.

17And the sons of Eliezer: Rehabiah the head; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.

18— The sons of Jizhar: Shelomith the head.

19The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the head, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
