Divisions by Levite Families

6

David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

7

Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.

8

The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, and Zetham, and Joel, three.

9

The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.

10

The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.

11

Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah didn’t have many sons; therefore they became a fathers’ house in one reckoning.

12

The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.

13

The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated, that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons, forever, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to him, and to bless in his name, forever.

14

But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.

15

The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.

16

The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.

17

The sons of Eliezer were: Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.

18

The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.

19

The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.

20

The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.

21

The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.

22

Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only: and their brothers the sons of Kish took them as wives.

23

The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
