The Levitical Musicians

25 David and the officers of the army also set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman,(A) and Jeduthun, who were to prophesy(B) accompanied by lyres, harps, and cymbals.(C) This is the list of the men who performed their service:

2 From Asaph’s sons:

Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Asarelah, sons of Asaph, under Asaph’s authority, who prophesied under the authority of the king.

3 From Jeduthun:(D) Jeduthun’s sons:

Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei,[a] Hashabiah, and Mattithiah—six—under the authority of their father Jeduthun, prophesying to the accompaniment of lyres, giving thanks and praise to the Lord.

4 From Heman: Heman’s sons:

Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamti-ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth. 5 All these sons of Heman, the king’s seer,(E) were given by the promises of God to exalt him,[b] for God had given Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.

6 All these men were under their own fathers’ authority for the music in the Lord’s temple, with cymbals, harps, and lyres for the service of God’s temple. Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman were under the king’s authority. 7 They numbered 288 together with their relatives who were all trained and skillful in music for the Lord. 8 They cast lots for their duties, young and old alike, teacher as well as pupil.(F)

Tempelsångarnas avdelningar

25 David och befälhavarna avskilde Asafs, Hemans och Jedutuns söner till att tjänstgöra som profeter med harpor, lyror och cymbaler. Detta är förteckningen på dem, de män som fick utföra denna tjänst: 2 Av Asafs söner: Sackur, Josef, Netanja och Asarela, Asafs söner, under ledning av Asaf som profeterade på kungens uppdrag.

3 Av Jedutun: Jedutuns söner Gedalja, Seri, Jesaja, Shimei[a], Hashabja och Mattitja, sex till antalet, med harpor, under ledning av sin fader Jedutun som profeterade med tacksägelsesånger och lovsånger till Herren.

4 Av Heman: Hemans söner Buckia, Mattanja, Ussiel, Shebuel och Jerimot, Hananja, Hanani, Eliata, Giddalti och Romamti-Eser, Joshbekasha, Malloti, Hotir, Mahasiot. 5 Alla dessa var söner till Heman, som var kungens siare, enligt det löfte Gud hade gett att han skulle upphöja hans horn. Därför gav Gud Heman fjorton söner och tre döttrar.

6 Alla dessa stod var och en under sin fars ledning vid sången i Herrens hus till cymbaler, lyror och harpor vid tjänsten i Guds hus. De stod under kungens, Asafs, Jedutuns och Hemans ledning.

1 Chronicles 25
Living Bible

25 David and the officials of the Tabernacle then appointed men to prophesy to the accompaniment of zithers, harps, and cymbals. These men were from the groups of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun. Here is a list of their names and their work:

2 Under the leadership of Asaph, the king’s private prophet, were his sons Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Asharelah.

3 Under Jeduthun, who led in giving thanks and praising the Lord (while accompanied by the zither), were his six sons: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah.

4-5 Under the direction of Heman, the king’s private chaplain, were his sons: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Geddalti, Romamti-ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth. (For God had honored him with fourteen sons and three daughters.) 6-7 Their music ministry included the playing of cymbals, harps, and zithers; all were under the direction of their father as they performed this ministry in the Tabernacle.

Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman reported directly to the king. They and their families were all trained in singing praises to the Lord; each one—288 of them in all—was a master musician. 8 The singers were appointed to their particular term of service by coin-toss, without regard to age or reputation.

9-31 The first toss indicated Joseph of the Asaph clan;

The second, Gedaliah, along with twelve of his sons and brothers;

The third, Zaccur and twelve of his sons and brothers;

The fourth, Izri and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Fifth, Nethaniah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Seventh, Jesharelah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Eighth, Jeshaiah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Ninth, Mattaniah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Tenth, Shimei and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Eleventh, Azarel and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Twelfth, Hashabiah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Thirteenth, Shubael and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Fourteenth, Mattithiah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Fifteenth, Jeremoth and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Sixteenth, Hananiah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Seventeenth, Joshbekasha and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Eighteenth, Hanani and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Nineteenth, Mallothi and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Twentieth, Eliathah and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Twenty-first, Hothir and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Twenty-second, Giddalti and twelve of his sons and brothers;

Twenty-third, Mahazioth and twelve of his sons and brothers;
