1 Chr 24:1Now the divisions of the descendants of Aaron were these: the sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
1 Chr 24:2But Nadab and Abihu died before their father and had no sons. So Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
1 Chr 24:3David, with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to their offices for their ministry.
1 Chr 24:4Since more chief men were found from the descendants of Eleazar than the descendants of Ithamar, they divided them thus: there were sixteen heads of fathers' households of the descendants of Eleazar and eight of the descendants of Ithamar, according to their fathers' households.
1 Chr 24:5Thus they were divided by lot, the one as the other; for they were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God, both from the descendants of Eleazar and the descendants of Ithamar.
1 Chr 24:6Shemaiah, the son of Nethanel the scribe, from the Levites, recorded them in the presence of the king, the princes, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers' households of the priests and of the Levites; one father's household taken for Eleazar and one taken for Ithamar.
1 Chr 24:7¶ Now the first lot came out for Jehoiarib, the second for Jedaiah,
1 Chr 24:8the third for Harim, the fourth for Seorim,
1 Chr 24:9the fifth for Malchijah, the sixth for Mijamin,
1 Chr 24:10the seventh for Hakkoz, the eighth for Abijah,
1 Chr 24:11the ninth for Jeshua, the tenth for Shecaniah,
1 Chr 24:12the eleventh for Eliashib, the twelfth for Jakim,
1 Chr 24:13the thirteenth for Huppah, the fourteenth for Jeshebeab,
1 Chr 24:14the fifteenth for Bilgah, the sixteenth for Immer,
1 Chr 24:15the seventeenth for Hezir, the eighteenth for Happizzez,
1 Chr 24:16the nineteenth for Pethahiah, the twentieth for Jehezkel,
1 Chr 24:17the twenty-first for Jachin, the twenty-second for Gamul,
1 Chr 24:18the twenty-third for Delaiah, the twenty-fourth for Maaziah.
1 Chr 24:19These were their offices for their ministry when they came in to the house of the LORD according to the ordinance given to them through Aaron their father, just as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
1 Chr 24:20¶ Now for the rest of the sons of Levi: of the sons of Amram, Shubael; of the sons of Shubael, Jehdeiah.
1 Chr 24:21Of Rehabiah: of the sons of Rehabiah, Isshiah the first.
1 Chr 24:22Of the Izharites, Shelomoth; of the sons of Shelomoth, Jahath.
1 Chr 24:23The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, Jekameam the fourth.
1 Chr 24:24Of the sons of Uzziel, Micah; of the sons of Micah, Shamir.
1 Chr 24:25The brother of Micah, Isshiah; of the sons of Isshiah, Zechariah.
1 Chr 24:26The sons of Merari, Mahli and Mushi; the sons of Jaaziah, Beno.
1 Chr 24:27The sons of Merari: by Jaaziah were Beno, Shoham, Zaccur and Ibri.
1 Chr 24:28By Mahli: Eleazar, who had no sons.
1 Chr 24:29By Kish: the sons of Kish, Jerahmeel.
1 Chr 24:30The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites according to their fathers' households.
1 Chr 24:31These also cast lots just as their relatives the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, Zadok, Ahimelech, and the heads of the fathers' households of the priests and of the Levites--the head of fathers' households as well as those of his younger brother.
