⁷ The Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.
⁸ Ladan’s sons: Jehiel was the first, then Zetham, and Joel—three.
⁹ Shimei’s sons: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran—three. Those were the heads of the families of Ladan.
¹⁰ Shimei’s sons: Jahath, Zizah,^[a] Jeush, and Beriah. Those were Shimei’s sons—four. ¹¹ Jahath was the first and Zizah was the second; however, Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they became an ancestral house and received a single assignment.
