1 Chronicles 27:16-24

16Now in charge of the tribes of Israel: chief officer for the Reubenites was Eliezer the son of Zichri; for the Simeonites, Shephatiah the son of Maacah; 17for Levi, Hashabiah the son of Kemuel; for Aaron, Zadok; 18for Judah, Elihu, one of David’s brothers; for Issachar, Omri the son of Michael; 19for Zebulun, Ishmaiah the son of Obadiah; for Naphtali, Jeremoth the son of Azriel; 20for the sons of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Azaziah; for the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joel the son of Pedaiah; 21for the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zechariah; for Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner; 22for Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham. 1These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel. 23But David did not 2count those twenty years of age and under, 3because the Lord had said He would multiply Israel 4as the stars of heaven. 24Joab the son of Zeruiah had begun to count them, but did not finish; and because of 5this, wrath came upon Israel, and the number was not included in the account of the chronicles of King David.
