1 Chronicles 24:1-5

1Now the divisionsH4256 of the 1descendantsH1121 of AaronH175 were these: 2the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 were NadabH5070, AbihuH30, EleazarH499 and IthamarH385.

23But NadabH5070 and AbihuH30 diedH4191 beforeH6440 their fatherH1 and hadH1961 noH3808 4sonsH1121. So EleazarH499 and IthamarH385 servedH3547 as priestsH3547.

3DavidH1732, with 5ZadokH6659 of the sonsH1121 of EleazarH499 and AhimelechH288 of the sonsH1121 of IthamarH385, dividedH2505 them according to their officesH6486 6for their ministryH5656.

4Since moreH7227 chiefH7218 menH1397 were foundH4672 from the 7descendantsH1121 of EleazarH499 thanH4480 the 8descendantsH1121 of IthamarH385, they dividedH2505 them thus: there were sixteenH8337H6240 headsH7218 of fathers’H1 householdsH1004 of the 9descendantsH1121 of EleazarH499 and eightH8083 of the 10descendantsH1121 of IthamarH385, according to their fathers’H1 householdsH1004.

511Thus they were dividedH2505 by lotH1486, the oneH428 as the otherH428; for they were officersH8269 of the sanctuaryH6944 and officersH8269 of GodH430, both from the 12descendantsH1121 of EleazarH499 and the 13descendantsH1121 of IthamarH385.
