1 Chronicles 23:6-23

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

The Sons of Gershon

7
Of the Gershonites were 1Ladan and Shimei.

8
The sons of Ladan were Jehiel the first and Zetham and Joel, three.

9
The sons of Shimei were Shelomoth and Haziel and Haran, three.
These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.

10
The sons of Shimei were Jahath, 1Zina, Jeush, and Beriah.
These four were the sons of Shimei.

11
Jahath was the first and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they became a father’s household, one 1unit.

The Sons of Kohath

12
The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.

13
aThe sons of Amram were Aaron and Moses. And bAaron was separated in order to sanctify him as most holy, he and his sons forever, cto offer offerings up in smoke before Yahweh, to minister to Him and to bless in His name forever.

14
But as for aMoses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.

15
The sons of Moses were Gershom and Eliezer.

16
The 1son of Gershom was 2Shebuel the chief.

17
The 1son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.

18
The 1son of Izhar was 2Shelomith the chief.

19
The sons of Hebron were Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third and Jekameam the fourth.

20
The sons of Uzziel were Micah the first and Isshiah the second.

The Sons of Merari

21
The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli were Eleazar and Kish.

22
And Eleazar died and had no sons, but daughters only, so their brothers, the sons of Kish, took them up as wives.

23
The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
