And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei. Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they were enrolled as a single family. The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four. The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. Aaron was set apart to consecrate the most holy things, so that he and his sons forever should make offerings before the Lord , and minister to him and pronounce blessings in his name forever; but as for Moses the man of God, his sons were to be reckoned among the tribe of Levi.

Contextual Overview

1When David was old and full of years, he installed his son Solomon as king over Israel. 2Then he gathered all the leaders of Israel, as well as the priests and Levites. 3The Levites thirty years of age and older were counted, and the total number of men was 38,000. 4"Of these," said David, "24,000 are to oversee the work of the house of the LORD, 6,000 are to be officers and judges, 54,000 are to be gatekeepers, and 4,000 are to praise the LORD with the instruments I have made for giving praise." 6Then David divided the Levites into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershom, Kohath, and Merari. 7The Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei. 8The sons of Ladan: Jehiel was the first, then Zetham, and Joel-three in all. 9The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran-three in all. These were the heads of the families of Ladan. 10And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These were the sons of Shimei-four in all.
