They were able to do their jobs well as they served God in his temple. 14From the Levites, there were: Shemaiah, the son of Hasshub and grandson of Azrikam, who was Hashabiah's son. Hashabiah belonged to Merari's clan. There was Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal and Mattaniah, the son of Mica and grandson of Zikri, who was a descendant of Asaph. 16There was also Obadiah, the son of Shemaiah and grandson of Galal, who was Jeduthun's son.
