The Divisions of Priests
24 These were the divisions(A) of the descendants of Aaron:(B)
The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.(C) 2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did,(D) and they had no sons; so Eleazar and Ithamar served as the priests. 3 With the help of Zadok(E) a descendant of Eleazar and Ahimelek a descendant of Ithamar, David separated them into divisions for their appointed order of ministering. 4 A larger number of leaders were found among Eleazar’s descendants than among Ithamar’s, and they were divided accordingly: sixteen heads of families from Eleazar’s descendants and eight heads of families from Ithamar’s descendants. 5 They divided them impartially by casting lots,(F) for there were officials of the sanctuary and officials of God among the descendants of both Eleazar and Ithamar.
6 The scribe Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, recorded their names in the presence of the king and of the officials: Zadok the priest, Ahimelek(G) son of Abiathar and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites—one family being taken from Eleazar and then one from Ithamar.
7 The first lot fell to Jehoiarib,
the second to Jedaiah,(H)
8 the third to Harim,(I)
the fourth to Seorim,
9 the fifth to Malkijah,
the sixth to Mijamin,
10 the seventh to Hakkoz,
the eighth to Abijah,(J)
11 the ninth to Jeshua,
the tenth to Shekaniah,
12 the eleventh to Eliashib,
the twelfth to Jakim,
13 the thirteenth to Huppah,
the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,
14 the fifteenth to Bilgah,
the sixteenth to Immer,(K)
15 the seventeenth to Hezir,(L)
the eighteenth to Happizzez,
16 the nineteenth to Pethahiah,
the twentieth to Jehezkel,
17 the twenty-first to Jakin,
the twenty-second to Gamul,
18 the twenty-third to Delaiah
and the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.
19 This was their appointed order of ministering when they entered the temple of the Lord, according to the regulations prescribed for them by their ancestor Aaron, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had commanded him.
The Rest of the Levites
20 As for the rest of the descendants of Levi:(M)
from the sons of Amram: Shubael;
from the sons of Shubael: Jehdeiah.
21 As for Rehabiah,(N) from his sons:
Ishiah was the first.
22 From the Izharites: Shelomoth;
from the sons of Shelomoth: Jahath.
23 The sons of Hebron:(O) Jeriah the first,[a] Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third and Jekameam the fourth.
24 The son of Uzziel: Micah;
from the sons of Micah: Shamir.
25 The brother of Micah: Ishiah;
from the sons of Ishiah: Zechariah.
26 The sons of Merari:(P) Mahli and Mushi.
The son of Jaaziah: Beno.
27 The sons of Merari:
from Jaaziah: Beno, Shoham, Zakkur and Ibri.
28 From Mahli: Eleazar, who had no sons.
29 From Kish: the son of Kish:
Jerahmeel.
30 And the sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder and Jerimoth.
These were the Levites, according to their families. 31 They also cast lots,(Q) just as their relatives the descendants of Aaron did, in the presence of King David and of Zadok, Ahimelek, and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites. The families of the oldest brother were treated the same as those of the youngest.

The Divisions of the Priests
24 Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. (A)The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 2 And (B)Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children; therefore Eleazar and Ithamar ministered as priests. 3 Then David with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and (C)Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to the schedule of their service.
4 There were more leaders found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus they were divided. Among the sons of Eleazar were sixteen heads of their fathers’ houses, and eight heads of their fathers’ houses among the sons of Ithamar. 5 Thus they were divided by lot, one group as another, for there were officials of the sanctuary and officials of the house of God, from the sons of Eleazar and from the sons of Ithamar. 6 And the scribe, Shemaiah the son of Nethanel, one of the Levites, wrote them down before the king, the leaders, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers’ houses of the priests and Levites, one father’s house taken for Eleazar and one for Ithamar.
7 Now the first lot fell to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah, 8 the third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim, 9 the fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin, 10 the seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to (D)Abijah, 11 the ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah, 12 the eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim, 13 the thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab, 14 the fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer, 15 the seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to [a]Happizzez, 16 the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to [b]Jehezekel, 17 the twenty-first to Jachin, the twenty-second to Gamul, 18 the twenty-third to Delaiah, the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.
19 This was the schedule of their service (E)for coming into the house of the Lord according to their ordinance by the hand of Aaron their father, as the Lord God of Israel had commanded him.
Other Levites
20 And the rest of the sons of Levi: of the sons of Amram, [c]Shubael; of the sons of Shubael, Jehdeiah. 21 Concerning (F)Rehabiah, of the sons of Rehabiah, the first was Isshiah. 22 Of the Izharites, [d]Shelomoth; of the sons of Shelomoth, Jahath. 23 Of the sons [e]of (G)Hebron, Jeriah was the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth. 24 Of the sons of Uzziel, Michah; of the sons of Michah, Shamir. 25 The brother of Michah, Isshiah; of the sons of Isshiah, Zechariah. 26 (H)The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi; the son of Jaaziah, Beno. 27 The sons of Merari by Jaaziah were Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri. 28 Of Mahli: Eleazar, (I)who had no sons. 29 Of Kish: the son of Kish, Jerahmeel.
30 Also (J)the sons of Mushi were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites according to their fathers’ houses.
31 These also cast lots just as their brothers the sons of Aaron did, in the presence of King David, Zadok, Ahimelech, and the heads of the fathers’ houses of the priests and Levites. The chief fathers did just as their younger brethren.

24 Voici les classes des fils d'Aaron. Fils d'Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Éléazar et Ithamar.
2 Nadab et Abihu moururent avant leur père, sans avoir de fils; et Éléazar et Ithamar remplirent les fonctions du sacerdoce.
3 David divisa les fils d'Aaron en les classant pour le service qu'ils avaient à faire; Tsadok appartenait aux descendants d'Éléazar, et Achimélec aux descendants d'Ithamar.
4 Il se trouva parmi les fils d'Éléazar plus de chefs que parmi les fils d'Ithamar, et on en fit la division; les fils d'Éléazar avaient seize chefs de maisons paternelles, et les fils d'Ithamar huit chefs de maisons paternelles.
5 On les classa par le sort, les uns avec les autres, car les chefs du sanctuaire et les chefs de de Dieu étaient des fils d'Éléazar et des fils d'Ithamar.
6 Schemaeja, fils de Nethaneel, le secrétaire, de la tribu de Lévi, les inscrivit devant le roi et les princes, devant Tsadok, le sacrificateur, et Achimélec, fils d'Abiathar, et devant les chefs des maisons paternelles des sacrificateurs et des Lévites. On tira au sort une maison paternelle pour Éléazar, et on en tira une autre pour Ithamar.
7 Le premier sort échut à Jehojarib; le second, à Jedaeja;
8 le troisième, à Harim; le quatrième, à Seorim;
9 le cinquième, à Malkija; le sixième, à Mijamin;
10 le septième, à Hakkots; le huitième, à Abija;
11 le neuvième, à Josué; le dixième, à Schecania;
12 le onzième, à Éliaschib; le douzième, à Jakim;
13 le treizième, à Huppa; le quatorzième, à Jeschébeab;
14 le quinzième, à Bilga; le seizième, à Immer;
15 le dix-septième, à Hézir; le dix-huitième, à Happitsets;
16 le dix-neuvième, à Pethachja; le vingtième, à Ézéchiel;
17 le vingt et unième, à Jakin; le vingt-deuxième, à Gamul;
18 le vingt-troisième, à Delaja; le vingt-quatrième, à Maazia.
19 C'est ainsi qu'ils furent classés pour leur service, afin qu'ils entrassent dans la maison de l'Éternel en se conformant à la règle établie par Aaron, leur père, d'après les ordres que lui avait donnés l'Éternel, le Dieu d'Israël.
20 Voici les chefs du reste des Lévites. -Des fils d'Amram: Schubaël; des fils de Schubaël: Jechdia;
21 de Rechabia, des fils de Rechabia: le chef Jischija.
22 Des Jitseharites: Schelomoth; des fils de Schelomoth: Jachath.
23 Fils d'Hébron: Jerija, Amaria le second, Jachaziel le troisième, Jekameam le quatrième.
24 Fils d'Uziel: Michée; des fils de Michée: Schamir;
25 frère de Michée: Jischija; des fils de Jischija: Zacharie. -
26 Fils de Merari: Machli et Muschi, et les fils de Jaazija, son fils.
27 Fils de Merari, de Jaazija, son fils: Schoham, Zaccur et Ibri.
28 De Machli: Éléazar, qui n'eut point de fils;
29 de Kis, les fils de Kis: Jerachmeel.
30 Fils de Muschi: Machli, Éder et Jerimoth. Ce sont là les fils de Lévi, selon leurs maisons paternelles.
31 Eux aussi, comme leurs frères, les fils d'Aaron, ils tirèrent au sort devant le roi David, Tsadok et Achimélec, et les chefs des maisons paternelles des sacrificateurs et des Lévites. Il en fut ainsi pour chaque chef de maison comme pour le moindre de ses frères.
