The People of Gershon
7 From the people of Gershon, there were Ladan and Shimei.
8 Ladan had three sons. His first son was Jehiel. His other sons were Zetham and Joel.
9 Shimei’s sons were Shelomoth, Haziel and Haran. These three sons were leaders of Ladan’s families. 10 Shimei had four sons. They were Jahath, Ziza, Jeush and Beriah. 11 Jahath was the first son, and Ziza was the second son. But Jeush and Beriah did not have many children. So they were counted as if they were one family.
