And these were the ones who came up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer; but they could not identify their father’s house or their genealogy, whether they were of Israel:

All who were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of Israel numbered, by their families and by their fathers’ houses,

And the rest of the sons of Levi: of the sons of Amram, Shubael; of the sons of Shubael, Jehdeiah.Concerning Rehabiah, of the sons of Rehabiah, the first was Isshiah.Of the Izharites, Shelomoth; of the sons of Shelomoth, Jahath.Of the sons of Hebron, Jeriah was the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.Of the sons of Uzziel, Michah; of the sons of Michah, Shamir.The brother of Michah, Isshiah; of the sons of Isshiah, Zechariah.The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi; the son of Jaaziah, Beno.The sons of Merari by Jaaziah were Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri.Of Mahli: Eleazar, who had no sons.Of Kish: the son of Kish, Jerahmeel.Also the sons of Mushi were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth.

The chief fathers did just as their younger brethren.Moreover David and the captains of the army separated for the service some of the sons of Asaph, of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, stringed instruments, and cymbals.
