8 Ladan’s sons: Jehiel was the first, then Zetham, and Joel—three.

9 Shimei’s sons: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran—three. Those were the heads of the families of Ladan.

10 Shimei’s sons: Jahath, Zizah,B Jeush, and Beriah. Those were Shimei’s sons—four. 11 Jahath was the first and Zizah was the second; however, Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they became one familyC and received a single assignment.

12 Kohath’s sons: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel—four.
