1 Chronicles 23:6–24

⁶And ⁱDavid divided them into courses among ^kthe sons of Levi, namely, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

^7lOf the Gershonites were, Laadan, and Shimei. ⁸the sons of Laadan; the chief was ^mJehiel, and ^lZetham, and ^lJoel, three. ⁹The sons of Shimei; Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the chief of the fathers of Laadan. ¹⁰And the sons of ⁿShimei were, Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei. ¹¹And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they were in one reckoning, according to their father’s house.

^12oThe sons of Kohath; Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four. ¹³The sons of ^pAmram; Aaron and Moses: and ^qAaron was separated, that he should sanctify ^rthe most holy things, he and his sons for ever, ^sto burn incense before the Lord, ^tto minister unto him, and ^tuto bless in his name for ever. ¹⁴Now concerning Moses ^xthe man of God, ^yhis sons were named of the tribe of Levi. ^15zThe sons of Moses were, Gershom, and Eliezer. ^16aOf the sons of Gershom, Shebuel was the chief. ¹⁷And the sons of Eliezer were, ^bRehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had none other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many. ¹⁸Of the sons of Izhar; Shelomith the chief. ^19cOf the sons of Hebron; Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth. ²⁰Of the sons of Uzziel; ^dMichah the first, and ^dJesiah the second.

^21eThe sons of Merari; Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli; Eleazar, and ^fKish. ²²And Eleazar died, and ^ghad no sons, but daughters: and their brethren the sons of Kish ^htook them. ²³ⁱThe sons of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.

²⁴These were ^kthe sons of Levi after the house of their fathers; even the chief of the fathers, as ^lthey were counted by number of names by their polls, that did the work for the service of the house of the Lord, from the age of ^mtwenty years and upward.
