1 Chronicles 9
New International Version
9 All Israel(A) was listed in the genealogies recorded in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah. They were taken captive to Babylon(B) because of their unfaithfulness.(C)
The People in Jerusalem(D)
2 Now the first to resettle on their own property in their own towns(E) were some Israelites, priests, Levites and temple servants.(F)
3 Those from Judah, from Benjamin, and from Ephraim and Manasseh who lived in Jerusalem were:
4 Uthai son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, a descendant of Perez son of Judah.(G)
5 Of the Shelanites[a]:
Asaiah the firstborn and his sons.
6 Of the Zerahites:
Jeuel.
The people from Judah numbered 690.
7 Of the Benjamites:
Sallu son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah;
8 Ibneiah son of Jeroham; Elah son of Uzzi, the son of Mikri; and Meshullam son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah.
9 The people from Benjamin, as listed in their genealogy, numbered 956. All these men were heads of their families.
10 Of the priests:
Jedaiah; Jehoiarib; Jakin;
11 Azariah son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the official in charge of the house of God;
12 Adaiah son of Jeroham, the son of Pashhur,(H) the son of Malkijah; and Maasai son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer.
13 The priests, who were heads of families, numbered 1,760. They were able men, responsible for ministering in the house of God.
14 Of the Levites:
Shemaiah son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, a Merarite; 15 Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal and Mattaniah(I) son of Mika, the son of Zikri, the son of Asaph; 16 Obadiah son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berekiah son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.(J)
17 The gatekeepers:(K)
Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman and their fellow Levites, Shallum their chief 18 being stationed at the King’s Gate(L) on the east, up to the present time. These were the gatekeepers belonging to the camp of the Levites. 19 Shallum(M) son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his fellow gatekeepers from his family (the Korahites) were responsible for guarding the thresholds of the tent just as their ancestors had been responsible for guarding the entrance to the dwelling of the Lord. 20 In earlier times Phinehas(N) son of Eleazar was the official in charge of the gatekeepers, and the Lord was with him. 21 Zechariah(O) son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
22 Altogether, those chosen to be gatekeepers(P) at the thresholds numbered 212. They were registered by genealogy in their villages. The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer.(Q) 23 They and their descendants were in charge of guarding the gates of the house of the Lord—the house called the tent of meeting. 24 The gatekeepers were on the four sides: east, west, north and south. 25 Their fellow Levites in their villages had to come from time to time and share their duties for seven-day(R) periods. 26 But the four principal gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted with the responsibility for the rooms and treasuries(S) in the house of God. 27 They would spend the night stationed around the house of God,(T) because they had to guard it; and they had charge of the key(U) for opening it each morning.
28 Some of them were in charge of the articles used in the temple service; they counted them when they were brought in and when they were taken out. 29 Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all the other articles of the sanctuary,(V) as well as the special flour and wine, and the olive oil, incense and spices. 30 But some(W) of the priests took care of mixing the spices. 31 A Levite named Mattithiah, the firstborn son of Shallum the Korahite, was entrusted with the responsibility for baking the offering bread. 32 Some of the Kohathites, their fellow Levites, were in charge of preparing for every Sabbath the bread set out on the table.(X)
33 Those who were musicians,(Y) heads of Levite families, stayed in the rooms of the temple and were exempt from other duties because they were responsible for the work day and night.(Z)
34 All these were heads of Levite families, chiefs as listed in their genealogy, and they lived in Jerusalem.

Los que regresaron de Babilonia
(Neh. 11.1-24)
9 Contado todo Israel por sus genealogías, fueron escritos en el libro de los reyes de Israel. Y los de Judá fueron transportados a Babilonia por su rebelión. 2 Los primeros moradores que entraron en sus posesiones en las ciudades fueron israelitas, sacerdotes, levitas y sirvientes del templo. 3 Habitaron en Jerusalén, de los hijos de Judá, de los hijos de Benjamín, de los hijos de Efraín y Manasés:(A) 4 Utai hijo de Amiud, hijo de Omri, hijo de Imri, hijo de Bani, de los hijos de Fares hijo de Judá. 5 Y de los silonitas, Asaías el primogénito, y sus hijos. 6 De los hijos de Zera, Jeuel y sus hermanos, seiscientos noventa. 7 Y de los hijos de Benjamín:(B) Salú hijo de Mesulam, hijo de Hodavías, hijo de Asenúa, 8 Ibneías hijo de Jeroham, Ela hijo de Uzi, hijo de Micri, y Mesulam hijo de Sefatías, hijo de Reuel, hijo de Ibnías. 9 Y sus hermanos por sus linajes fueron novecientos cincuenta y seis. Todos estos hombres fueron jefes de familia en sus casas paternas.
10 De los sacerdotes: Jedaías, Joiarib, Jaquín, 11 Azarías hijo de Hilcías, hijo de Mesulam, hijo de Sadoc, hijo de Meraiot, hijo de Ahitob, príncipe de la casa de Dios; 12 Adaía hijo de Jeroham, hijo de Pasur, hijo de Malquías; Masai hijo de Adiel, hijo de Jazera, hijo de Mesulam, hijo de Mesilemit, hijo de Imer, 13 y sus hermanos, jefes de sus casas paternas, en número de mil setecientos sesenta, hombres muy eficaces en la obra del ministerio en la casa de Dios.
14 De los levitas: Semaías hijo de Hasub, hijo de Azricam, hijo de Hasabías, de los hijos de Merari, 15 Bacbacar, Heres, Galal, Matanías hijo de Micaía, hijo de Zicri, hijo de Asaf; 16 Obadías hijo de Semaías, hijo de Galal, hijo de Jedutún; y Berequías hijo de Asa, hijo de Elcana, el cual habitó en las aldeas de los netofatitas.
17 Y los porteros:(C) Salum, Acub, Talmón, Ahimán y sus hermanos. Salum era el jefe. 18 Hasta ahora entre las cuadrillas de los hijos de Leví han sido estos los porteros en la puerta del rey que está al oriente. 19 Salum hijo de Coré, hijo de Ebiasaf, hijo de Coré, y sus hermanos los coreítas por la casa de su padre, tuvieron a su cargo la obra del ministerio, guardando las puertas del tabernáculo, como sus padres guardaron la entrada del campamento de Jehová. 20 Y Finees hijo de Eleazar fue antes capitán sobre ellos; y Jehová estaba con él. 21 Zacarías hijo de Meselemías era portero de la puerta del tabernáculo de reunión. 22 Todos estos, escogidos para guardas en las puertas, eran doscientos doce cuando fueron contados por el orden de sus linajes en sus villas, a los cuales constituyó en su oficio David y Samuel el vidente. 23 Así ellos y sus hijos eran porteros por sus turnos a las puertas de la casa de Jehová, y de la casa del tabernáculo. 24 Y estaban los porteros a los cuatro lados; al oriente, al occidente, al norte y al sur. 25 Y sus hermanos que estaban en sus aldeas, venían cada siete días según su turno para estar con ellos. 26 Porque cuatro principales de los porteros levitas estaban en el oficio, y tenían a su cargo las cámaras y los tesoros de la casa de Dios. 27 Estos moraban alrededor de la casa de Dios, porque tenían el cargo de guardarla, y de abrirla todas las mañanas.
28 Algunos de estos tenían a su cargo los utensilios para el ministerio, los cuales se metían por cuenta, y por cuenta se sacaban. 29 Y otros de ellos tenían el cargo de la vajilla, y de todos los utensilios del santuario, de la harina, del vino, del aceite, del incienso y de las especias. 30 Y algunos de los hijos de los sacerdotes hacían los perfumes aromáticos. 31 Matatías, uno de los levitas, primogénito de Salum coreíta, tenía a su cargo las cosas que se hacían en sartén. 32 Y algunos de los hijos de Coat, y de sus hermanos, tenían a su cargo los panes de la proposición, los cuales ponían por orden cada día de reposo.[a]
33 También había cantores, jefes de familias de los levitas, los cuales moraban en las cámaras del templo, exentos de otros servicios, porque de día y de noche estaban en aquella obra. 34 Estos eran jefes de familias de los levitas por sus linajes, jefes que habitaban en Jerusalén.
Genealogía de Saúl
35 En Gabaón habitaba Jehiel padre de Gabaón, el nombre de cuya mujer era Maaca; 36 y su hijo primogénito Abdón, luego Zur, Cis, Baal, Ner, Nadab, 37 Gedor, Ahío, Zacarías y Miclot; 38 y Miclot engendró a Simeam. Estos habitaban también en Jerusalén con sus hermanos enfrente de ellos. 39 Ner engendró a Cis, Cis engendró a Saúl, y Saúl engendró a Jonatán, Malquisúa, Abinadab y Es-baal. 40 Hijo de Jonatán fue Merib-baal, y Merib-baal engendró a Micaía. 41 Y los hijos de Micaía: Pitón, Melec, Tarea y Acaz. 42 Acaz engendró a Jara, Jara engendró a Alemet, Azmavet y Zimri, y Zimri engendró a Mosa, 43 y Mosa engendró a Bina, cuyo hijo fue Refaías, del que fue hijo Elasa, cuyo hijo fue Azel. 44 Y Azel tuvo seis hijos, los nombres de los cuales son: Azricam, Bocru, Ismael, Searías, Obadías y Hanán. Estos fueron los hijos de Azel.

1 Chronicles 9
New King James Version
Priests and Levites in Jerusalem
9 So (A)all Israel was [a]recorded by genealogies, and indeed, they were inscribed in the book of the kings of Israel. But Judah was carried away captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness. 2 (B)And the first inhabitants who dwelt in their possessions in their cities were Israelites, priests, Levites, and (C)the Nethinim.
Dwellers in Jerusalem
3 Now in (D)Jerusalem the children of Judah dwelt, and some 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 descendants 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 brethren—six hundred and ninety. 7 Of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah; 8 Ibneiah the son of Jeroham; Elah the son of Uzzi, the son of Michri; Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah; 9 and their brethren, according to their generations—nine hundred and fifty-six. All these men were heads of a father’s house in their fathers’ houses.
The Priests at Jerusalem
10 (E)Of the priests: Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, and Jachin; 11 [b]Azariah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the (F)officer over the house of God; 12 Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashur, the son of Malchijah; Maasai the son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer; 13 and their brethren, heads of their fathers’ houses—one thousand seven hundred and sixty. They were [c]very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.
The Levites at Jerusalem
14 Of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari; 15 Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah the son of Micah, the son of (G)Zichri, the son of Asaph; 16 (H)Obadiah the son of (I)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.
The Levite Gatekeepers
17 And the gatekeepers were Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and their brethren. Shallum was the chief. 18 Until then they had been gatekeepers for the camps of the children of Levi at the King’s Gate on the east.
19 Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, from his father’s house, the Korahites, were in charge of the work of the service, [d]gatekeepers of the tabernacle. Their fathers had been keepers of the entrance to the camp of the Lord. 20 And (J)Phinehas the son of Eleazar had been the officer over them in time past; the Lord was with him. 21 (K)Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was [e]keeper of the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
22 All those chosen as gatekeepers were two hundred and twelve. (L)They were recorded by their genealogy, in their villages. David and Samuel (M)the seer had appointed them to their trusted office. 23 So they and their children were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord, the house of the tabernacle, by assignment. 24 The gatekeepers were assigned to the four directions: the east, west, north, and south. 25 And their brethren in their villages had to come with them from time to time (N)for seven days. 26 For in this trusted office were four chief gatekeepers; they were Levites. And they had charge over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God. 27 And they lodged all around the house of God because [f]they had the (O)responsibility, and they were in charge of opening it every morning.
Other Levite Responsibilities
28 Now some of them were in charge of the serving vessels, for they brought them in and took them out by count. 29 Some of them were appointed over the furnishings and over all the implements of the sanctuary, and over the (P)fine flour and the wine and the oil and the incense and the spices. 30 And some of the sons of the priests made (Q)the ointment of the spices.
31 Mattithiah of the Levites, the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the trusted office (R)over the things that were baked in the pans. 32 And some of their brethren of the sons of the Kohathites (S)were in charge of preparing the showbread for every Sabbath.
33 These are (T)the singers, heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites, who lodged in the chambers, and were free from other duties; for they were employed in that work day and night. 34 These heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites were heads throughout their generations. They dwelt at Jerusalem.
The Family of King Saul
35 Jeiel the father of Gibeon, whose wife’s name was (U)Maacah, dwelt at Gibeon. 36 His firstborn son was Abdon, then Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab, 37 Gedor, Ahio, [g]Zechariah, and Mikloth. 38 And Mikloth begot [h]Shimeam. They also dwelt alongside their relatives in Jerusalem, with their brethren. 39 (V)Ner begot Kish, Kish begot Saul, and Saul begot Jonathan, Malchishua, Abinadab, and Esh-Baal. 40 The son of Jonathan was Merib-Baal, and Merib-Baal begot Micah. 41 The sons of Micah were Pithon, Melech, [i]Tahrea, (W)and[j] Ahaz. 42 And Ahaz begot [k]Jarah; Jarah begot Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begot Moza; 43 Moza begot Binea, [l]Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, and Azel his son.
44 And Azel had six sons whose names were these: Azrikam, Bocheru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah, and Hanan; these were the sons of Azel.
