1 Chronicles 24
- 1Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
- 2But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
- 3And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
- 4And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and so they were divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
- 5So they were divided by lot, one sort with another. For the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
- 6And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and before the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.
- 7Now the first lot came out to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,
- 8The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,
- 9The fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,
- 10The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah,
- 11The ninth to Jeshuah, the tenth to Shecaniah,
- 12The eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim,
- 13The thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,
- 14The fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer,
- 15The seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Aphses,
- 16The nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezekel,
- 17The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul,
- 18The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah.
- 19This was the order of their service to come into the house of the Lord, according to their manner, under Aaron their father, as the Lord God of Israel had commanded him.
- 20And the rest of the sons of Levi were these: Of the sons of Amram, Shubael: of the sons of Shubael, Jehdeiah.
- 21Concerning Rehabiah: of the sons of Rehabiah, the first was Isshiah.
- 22Of the Izharites, Shelomoth: of the sons of Shelomoth, Jahath.
- 23And the sons of Hebron, Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, Jekameam the fourth.
- 24Of the sons of Uzziel, Michah: of the sons of Michah, Shamir.
- 25The brother of Michah was Isshiah: of the sons of Isshiah, Zechariah.
- 26The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi: the sons of Jaaziah, Beno.
- 27The sons of Merari by Jaaziah, Beno, and Shoham, and Zaccur, and Ibri.
- 28Of Mahli came Eleazar, who had no sons.
- 29Concerning Kish: the son of Kish was Jerahmeel.
- 30The sons also of Mushi, Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites after the house of their fathers.
- 31These likewise cast lots over against their brothers the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal fathers over against their younger brothers and sisters.
