²¹Ladan was Gershon’s son and the ancestor of several family groups. Jehiel was a leader of one of the family groups. ²²His sons were Zetham and Joel his brother, and they were responsible for the treasuries of the Temple of the Lord.

²³Other leaders were chosen from the family groups of Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. ²⁴Shubael, the descendant of Gershom, who was Moses’ son, was the leader responsible for the treasuries. ²⁵These were Shubael’s relatives from Eliezer: Eliezer’s son Rehabiah, Rehabiah’s son Jeshaiah, Jeshaiah’s son Joram, Joram’s son Zicri, and Zicri’s son Shelomith. ²⁶Shelomith and his relatives were responsible for everything that had been collected for the Temple by King David, by the heads of families, by the commanders of a thousand men and of a hundred men, and by other army commanders. ²⁷They also gave some of the things they had taken in wars to be used in repairing the Temple of the Lord. ²⁸Shelomith and his relatives took care of all the holy items. Some had been given by Samuel the seer, Saul son of Kish, Abner son of Ner, and Joab son of Zeruiah.
