1 Chronicles 23:1-19

11Now when David 2reached old age, 3he made his son Solomon king over Israel. 2And he gathered together all the leaders of Israel with the priests and the Levites. 34The Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward, and 5their number by 6census of men was 38,000. 4Of these, 24,000 were 7to oversee the work of the house of the Lord; and 6,000 were 8officers and judges, 5and 4,000 were gatekeepers, and 94,000 were praising the Lord with the instruments which 10David made for giving praise. 6David divided them into divisions 11according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

7Of the Gershonites were 12Ladan and Shimei. 8The sons of Ladan were Jehiel the first and Zetham and Joel, three. 9The sons of Shimei were Shelomoth and Haziel and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan. 10The sons of Shimei were Jahath, 13Zina, Jeush and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei. 11Jahath was the first and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they became a father’s household, one 14class.

12The sons of Kohath were four: Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel. 1315The sons of Amram were Aaron and Moses. And 16Aaron was set apart to sanctify him as most holy, he and his sons forever, 17to burn incense before the Lord, to minister to Him and to bless in His name forever. 14But as for 18Moses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi. 15The sons of Moses were Gershom and Eliezer. 16The 19son of Gershom was 20Shebuel the chief. 17The 21son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many. 18The 22son of Izhar was 23Shelomith the chief. 19The sons of Hebron were Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third and Jekameam the fourth.
