Merari

The Merarites (the rest of the Levites) received the following: From the tribe of Zebulun they were given Rimmono and Tabor, together with their pasturelands.

From the Levites: Shemaiah son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, a descendant of Merari;

from the Merarites, Asaiah the chief and 220 of his relatives;

So the Levites appointed Heman son of Joel; from his brothers, Asaph son of Berechiah; from their brothers the Merarites, Ethan son of Kushaiah;

Then David divided the Levites into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershom, Kohath, and Merari.

The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi.

The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The son of Jaaziah: Beno.

The descendants of Merari from Jaaziah: Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri.

Hosah the Merarite also had sons: Shimri the first (although he was not the firstborn, his father had appointed him as the first),

These were the divisions of the gatekeepers who were descendants of Korah and Merari.

Then the Levites set to work: Mahath son of Amasai and Joel son of Azariah from the Kohathites; Kish son of Abdi and Azariah son of Jehallelel from the Merarites; Joah son of Zimmah and Eden son of Joah from the Gershonites;

And the men did the work faithfully. The Levites overseeing them were Jahath and Obadiah, descendants of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, descendants of Kohath. Other Levites, all skilled with musical instruments,

also Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah, from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and their sons, 20 men.
