New International Version
1 Chronicles 27:16-24
16The leaders of the tribes of Israel: over the Reubenites: Eliezer son of Zikri; over the Simeonites: Shephatiah son of Maakah;
17over Levi: Hashabiah son of Kemuel; over Aaron: Zadok;
18over Judah: Elihu, a brother of David; over Issachar: Omri son of Michael;
19over Zebulun: Ishmaiah son of Obadiah; over Naphtali: Jerimoth son of Azriel;
20over the Ephraimites: Hoshea son of Azaziah; over half the tribe of Manasseh: Joel son of Pedaiah;
21over the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead: Iddo son of Zechariah; over Benjamin: Jaasiel son of Abner;
22over Dan: Azarel son of Jeroham. These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel.
23David did not take the number of the men twenty years old or less, because the Lord had promised to make Israel as numerous as the stars in the sky.
24Joab son of Zeruiah began to count the men but did not finish. God’s wrath came on Israel on account of this numbering, and the number was not entered in the book of the annals of King David.
