[1] So all Israel were listed by genealogies; and behold,§ they are written in the book of the kings of Israel. Judah was carried away captive to Babylon for their disobedience. [2] Now the first inhabitants who lived in their possessions in their cities were Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the temple servants. [3] In Jerusalem, there lived of the children of Judah, of the children of Benjamin, and of the children of Ephraim and Manasseh: [4] Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, of the children of Perez the son of Judah. [5] Of the Shilonites: Asaiah the firstborn and his sons. [6] Of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel and their brothers, six hundred ninety. [7] Of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah; [8] and Ibneiah the son of Jeroham, and Elah the son of Uzzi, the son of Michri; and Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah; [9] and their brothers, according to their generations, nine hundred fifty-six. All these men were heads of fathers’ households by their fathers’ houses. [10] Of the priests: Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, Jachin, [11] and Azariah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the ruler of God’s house; [12] and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah; and Maasai the son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer; [13] and their brothers, heads of their fathers’ houses, one thousand seven hundred sixty; they were very able men for the work of the service of God’s house. [14] Of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari; [15] and Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah the son of Mica, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph, [16] and Obadiah the son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah the son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites. [17] The gatekeepers: Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and their brothers (Shallum was the chief), [18] who previously served in the king’s gate eastward. They were the gatekeepers for the camp of the children of Levi. [19] Shallum was the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brothers, of his father’s house, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the thresholds of the tent. Their fathers had been over Yahweh’s camp, keepers of the entry. [20] Phinehas the son of Eleazar was ruler over them in time past, and Yahweh was with him. [21] Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper of the door of the Tent of Meeting. [22] All these who were chosen to be gatekeepers in the thresholds were two hundred twelve. These were listed by genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer ordained in their office of trust. [23] So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of Yahweh’s house, even the house of the tent, as guards. [24] On the four sides were the gatekeepers, toward the east, west, north, and south. [25] Their brothers, in their villages, were to come in every seven days from time to time to be with them, [26] for the four chief gatekeepers, who were Levites, were in an office of trust, and were over the rooms and over the treasuries in God’s house. [27] They stayed around God’s house, because that was their duty; and it was their duty to open it morning by morning. [28] Certain of them were in charge of the vessels of service, for these were brought in by count, and these were taken out by count. [29] Some of them also were appointed over the furniture, and over all the vessels of the sanctuary, over the fine flour, the wine, the oil, the frankincense, and the spices. [30] Some of the sons of the priests prepared the mixing of the spices. [31] Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the office of trust over the things that were baked in pans. [32] Some of their brothers, of the sons of the Kohathites, were over the show bread, to prepare it every Sabbath. [33] These are the singers, heads of fathers’ households of the Levites, who lived in the rooms and were free from other service, for they were employed in their work day and night. [34] These were heads of fathers’ households of the Levites, throughout their generations, chief men. They lived at Jerusalem. [35] Jeiel the father of Gibeon, whose wife’s name was Maacah, lived in Gibeon. [36] His firstborn son was Abdon, then Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab, [37] Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah, and Mikloth. [38] Mikloth became the father of Shimeam. They also lived with their relatives in Jerusalem, near their relatives. [39] Ner became the father of Kish. Kish became the father of Saul. Saul became the father of Jonathan, Malchishua, Abinadab, and Eshbaal. [40] The son of Jonathan was Merib-baal. Merib-baal became the father of Micah. [41] The sons of Micah: Pithon, Melech, Tahrea, and Ahaz. [42] Ahaz became the father of Jarah. Jarah became the father of Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri. Zimri became the father of Moza. [43] Moza became the father of Binea, Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, and Azel his son. [44] Azel had six sons, whose names are Azrikam, Bocheru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah, and Hanan. These were the sons of Azel.

[1] So all Israel H3478 were reckoned by genealogies; H3187 (HithPerf) and, behold, they were written H3789 (QalPasPtc) in the book H5612 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 and Judah, H3063 who were carried away H1540 (HophPerf) to Babylon H894 for their transgression. H4604

H8337 All these men H582 were chief H7218 of the fathers H1 in the house H1004 of their fathers. H1 [10] And of the priests; H3548 Jedaiah, H3048 and Jehoiarib, H3080 and Jachin, H3199 [11] and Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Hilkiah, H2518 the son H1121 of Meshullam, H4918 the son H1121 of Zadok, H6659 the son H1121 of Meraioth, H4812 the son H1121 of Ahitub, H285 the ruler H5057 of the house H1004 of God; H430 [12] and Adaiah H5718 the son H1121 of Jeroham, H3395 the son H1121 of Pashur, H6583 the son H1121 of Malchijah, H4441 and Maasiai H4640 the son H1121 of Adiel, H5717 the son H1121 of Jahzerah, H3170 the son H1121 of Meshullam, H4918 the son H1121 of Meshillemith, H4921 the son H1121 of Immer; H564 [13] and their brethren, H251 heads H7218 of the house H1004 of their fathers, H1 a thousand H505 and seven H7651 hundred H3967 and threescore; H8346 very able H2428 men H1368 for the work H4399 of the service H5656 of the house H1004 of God. H430 [14] And of the Levites; H3881 Shemaiah H8098 the son H1121 of Hasshub, H2815 the son H1121 of Azrikam, H5840 the son H1121 of Hashabiah, H2811 of the sons H1121 of Merari; H4847 [15] and Bakbakkar, H1230 Heresh, H2792 and Galal, H1559 and Mattaniah H4983 the son H1121 of Micah, H4316 the son H1121 of Zichri, H2147 the son H1121 of Asaph; H623 [16] and Obadiah H5662 the son H1121 of Shemaiah, H8098 the son H1121 of Galal, H1559 the son H1121 of Jeduthun, H3038 and Berechiah H1296 the son H1121 of Asa, H609 the son H1121 of Elkanah, H511 that dwelt H3427 (QalActPtc) in the villages H2691 of the Netophathites. H5200 [17] And the porters H7778 were, Shallum, H7967 and Akkub, H6126 and Talmon, H2929 and Ahiman, H289 and their brethren: H251 Shallum H7967 was the chief; H7218 [18] who hitherto waited in the king’s H4428 gate H8179 eastward: H4217 they were porters H7778 in the companies H4264 of the children H1121 of Levi. H3878 [19] And Shallum H7967 the son H1121 of Kore, H6981 the son H1121 of Ebiasaph, H43 the son H1121 of Korah, H7141 and his brethren, H251 of the house H1004 of his father, H1 the Korahites, H7145 were over the work H4399 of the service, H5656 keepers H8104 (QalActPtc) of the gates H5592§ of the tabernacle: H168 and their fathers, H1 being over the host H4264 of the Lord, H3068 were keepers H8104 (QalActPtc) of the entry. H3996 [20] And Phinehas H6372 the son H1121 of Eleazar H499 was the ruler H5057 over them in time past, H6440 and the Lord H3068 was with him. [21] And Zechariah H2148 the son H1121 of Meshelemiah H4920 was porter H7778 of the door H6607 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation. H4150 [22] All these which were chosen H1305 (QalPasPtc) to be porters H7778 in the gates H5592 were two hundred H3967 and twelve. H8147 These were reckoned by their genealogy H3187 (HithInf) in their villages, H2691 whom H1992 David H1732 and Samuel H8050 the seer H7200 (QalActPtc) did ordain H3245 (PielPerf)§ in their set office. H530§ [23] So they and their children H1121 had the oversight of the gates H8179 of the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 namely, the house H1004 of the tabernacle, H168 by wards. H4931 [24] In four H702 quarters H7307 were the porters, H7778 toward the east, H4217 west, H3220 north, H6828 and south. H5045 [25] And their brethren, H251 which were in their villages, H2691 were to come H935 (QalInf) after seven H7651 days H3117 from time H6256 to time H6256 with them. [26] For these Levites, H3881 the four H702 chief H1368 porters, H7778 were in their set office,§ H530 and were over the chambers H3957§ and treasuries H214 of the house H1004 of God. H430 [27] And they lodged H3885 (QalImpf) round about H5439 the house H1004 of God, H430 because the charge H4931 was upon them, and the opening H4668 thereof every morning H1242 pertained to them. [28] And certain of them had the charge of H5921 the ministering H5656 vessels, H3627 that they should bring them in H935 (HiphImpf) and out H3318 (HiphImpf) by tale. H4557§ [29] Some of them also were appointed H4487 (PualPtc) to oversee the vessels, H3627 and all the instruments H3627§ of the sanctuary, H6944 and the fine flour, H5560 and the wine, H3196 and the oil, H8081 and the frankincense, H3828 and the spices. H1314 [30] And some of the sons H1121 of the priests H3548 made H7543 (QalActPtc) the ointment H4842 of the spices. H1314 [31] And Mattithiah, H4993 one of the Levites, H3881 who was the firstborn H1060 of Shallum H7967 the Korahite, H7145 had the set office H530§ over the things that were made H4639 in the pans. H2281§ [32] And other of their brethren, H251 of the sons H1121 of the Kohathites, H6956 were over the shewbread,§ H3899 to prepare H3559 (HiphInf) it every sabbath. H7676 [33] And these are the singers, H7891 (PolePtc) chief H7218 of the fathers H1 of the Levites, H3881 who remaining in the chambers H3957 were free: H6362 (QalPasPtc/Qere) for they were employed in that work H4399 day H3119 and night. H3915 [34] These chief H7218 fathers H1 of the Levites H3881 were chief H7218 throughout their generations; H8435 these dwelt H3427 (QalPerf) at Jerusalem. H3389

H792 [40] And the son H1121 of Jonathan H3083 was Merib-baal: H4807 and Merib-baal H4810 begat H3205 (HiphPerf) Micah. H4318 [41] And the sons H1121 of Micah H4318 were, Pithon, H6377 and Melech, H4429 and Tahrea, H8475 and Ahaz. [42] And Ahaz H271 begat H3205 (HiphPerf) Jarah; H3294 and Jarah H3294 begat H3205 (HiphPerf) Alemeth, H5964 and Azmaveth, H5820 and Zimri; H2174 and Zimri H2174 begat H3205 (HiphPerf) Moza; H4162 [43] and Moza H4162 begat H3205 (HiphPerf) Binea; H1150 and Rephaiah H7509 his son, H1121 Eleasah H501 his son, H1121 Azel H682 his son.
