1 Chronicles 24
- 1
- Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The
sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
- 2
- But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no
children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
- 3
- And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of
Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in
their service.
- 4
- And there were more chief men found of the sons of
Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus were they divided. Among the
sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers,
and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
- 5
- Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another;
for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of
the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
- 6
- And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the
Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest,
and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and before the chief of the fathers of the
priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and one
taken for Ithamar.
- 7
- Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to
Jedaiah,
- 8
- The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,
- 9
- The fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,
- 10
- The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah,
- 11
- The ninth to Jeshuah, the tenth to Shecaniah,
- 12
- The eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim,
- 13
- The thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,
- 14
- The fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer,
- 15
- The seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Aphses,
- 16
- The nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezekel,
- 17
- The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth
to Gamul,
- 18
- The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and
twentieth to Maaziah.
- 19
- These were the orderings of them in their service to
come into the house of the LORD, according to their manner, under Aaron their
father, as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
- 20
- And the rest of the sons of Levi were these: Of the sons

- The brother of Michah was Isshiah: of the sons of
Isshiah; Zechariah.
- 26
- The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi: the sons of
Jaaziah; Beno.
- 27
- The sons of Merari by Jaaziah; Beno, and Shoham, and
Zaccur, and Ibri.
- 28
- Of Mahli came Eleazar, who had no sons.
- 29
- Concerning Kish: the son of Kish was Jerahmeel.
- 30
- The sons also of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth.
These were the sons of the Levites after the house of their fathers.
- 31
- These likewise cast lots over against their brethren the
sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and
the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal
fathers over against their younger brethren.
