1 Chronicles 23:3-12 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

3. Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward: and their number, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.

4. Of which, twenty and four thousand were to look after the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges:

5. Moreover four thousand were gatekeepers; and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made, said David, for praise.

6. And David divided them into divisions among the sons of Levi, namely, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

7. Of the Gershonites were, Ladan, and Shimei.

8. The sons of Ladan; the chief was Jehiel, 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 were, 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 were in one reckoning, as one father's house.

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