4. Of these, twenty and four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges:
5. and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith.
6. And David divided them into courses 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' houses of Ladan.
10. And the sons of Shimei; Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
11. And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they became a fathers' house in one reckoning.
12. The sons of Kohath; Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
