1 Chronicles 25:8-10

New English Translation

⁸They cast lots to determine their responsibilities—oldest as well as youngest, teacher as well as student.^[a]

⁹The first lot went to Asaph’s son Joseph and his relatives and sons—twelve in all,^[b]

the second to Gedaliah and his relatives and sons—twelve in all,

¹⁰the third to Zaccur and his sons and relatives—twelve in all,

1 Chronicles 25:8 tn Heb “and they cast lots [for] service, just as like small, like great, teacher with student.”
1 Chronicles 25:9 tc Heb “The first lot went to Asaph, to Joseph.” Apparently the recurring formula, “and his sons and his relatives, twelve” has been accidentally omitted from the Hebrew text at this point (see vv. 10-31; the formula is slightly different in v. 9b). If the number “twelve” is not supplied here, the total comes to only 276, not the 288 required by v. 7.

⁹The first lot, which was for Asaph,^(B) fell to Joseph,
his sons and relatives^[a]	12^[b]
the second to Gedaliah,
him and his relatives and sons	12
¹⁰the third to Zakkur,

1 Chronicles 25:9 See Septuagint; Hebrew does not have his sons and relatives.
1 Chronicles 25:9 See the total in verse 7; Hebrew does not have twelve.
