²⁰ This is the continuation of the Levites from Kohath’s line: Shubael (son of Amram) fathered Jehdeiah. ²¹ Rehabiah (son of Eliezer) fathered Isshiah (the first). ²² Shelomoth (son of Izhar) fathered Jahath. ²³ Hebron (son of Kohath) fathered Jeriah first, Amariah second, Jahaziel third, and Jekameam fourth. ²⁴ Micah (son of Uzziel) fathered Shamir. ²⁵ Isshiah (brother of Micah) fathered Zechariah.

^26-27 From Merari’s line were Mahli and Mushi; Jaaziah fathered Beno, Shoham, Zaccur and Ibri. ²⁸ Mahli fathered Eleazar, who had no sons. ²⁹ Kish fathered Jerahmeel. ^30-31 Mushi fathered Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth. These Levites, according to their families, also determined their divisions by the system of lots (as their relatives, the sons of Aaron had done) in the presence of King David, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech, and the leaders of the priests’ families and of the Levites (the leaders of all the families and those of his younger brother).
