* So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies ; and , behold , they were written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah , who were carried away to Babylon for their transgression ma #al #. * Now the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions in their cities were , the Israelites Yisra #el #, the priests , Levites , and the Nethinims . * And in Jerusalem dwelt of the children of Judah , and of the children of Benjamin , and of the children of Ephraim , and Manasseh ; * Uthai the son of Ammihud , the son of Omri , the son of Imri , the son of Bani , of the children of Pharez the son of Judah . * And of the Shilonites ; Asaiah the firstborn , and his sons . * And of the sons of Zerah ; Jeuel Y @#uw #el #, and their brethren , six hundred and ninety tish #iym #. * And of the sons of Benjamin ; Sallu the son of Meshullam , the son of Hodaviah , the son of Hasenuah C @nuw #ah #, * And Ibneiah the son of Jeroham , and Elah the son of Uzzi , the son of Michri , and Meshullam the son of Shephathiah , the son of Reuel R @#uw #el #, the son of Ibnijah ; * And their brethren , according to their generations , nine hundred and fifty and six . All these men were chief of the fathers in the house of their fathers . * And of the priests ; Jedaiah Y @kda #yah #, and Jehoiarib , and Jachin , * And Azariah the son of Hilkiah , the son of Meshullam , the son of Zadok , the son of Meraioth , the son of Ahitub , the ruler of the house of God ; * And Adaiah the son of Jeroham , the son of Pashur , the son of Malchijah , and Maasiai the son of Adiel #Adiy #el #, the son of Jahzerah , the son of Meshullam , the son of Meshillemith , the son of Immer ; * And their brethren , heads of the house of their fathers , a thousand and seven hundred and threescore ; very able men for the work of the service of the house of God . * And of the Levites ; Shemaiah the son of Hasshub , the son of Azrikam , the son of Hashabiah , of the sons of Merari ; * And Bakbakkar , Heresh , and Galal , and Mattaniah the son of Micah , the son of Zichri , the son of Asaph ; * And Obadiah the son of Shemaiah Sh @ma #yah #, the son of Galal , the son of Jeduthun , and Berechiah the son of Asa , the son of Elkanah , that dwelt in the villages of the Netophathites . * And the porters were , Shallum , and Akkub , and Talmon , and Ahiman , and their brethren : Shallum was the chief ro #sh #; * Who hitherto waited in the kings gate eastward : they were porters in the companies of the children of Levi . * And Shallum the son of Kore , the son of Ebiasaph , the son of Korah , and his brethren , of the house of his father , the Korahites , were over the work of the service , keepers of the gates of the tabernacle : and their fathers , being over the host of the LORD , were keepers of the entry . * And Phinehas the son of Eleazar #El #azar # was the ruler over them in time past , and the LORD was with him . * And Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation mow #ed #. * All these which were chosen to be porters in the gates were two hundred and twelve sh @nayim #. These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages , whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office . * So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD , namely , the house of the tabernacle , by wards . * In four quarters were the porters show #er #, toward the east , west , north , and south . * And their brethren , which were in their villages , were to come after seven days from time to time with them . * For these Levites , the four chief porters show #er #, were in their set office , and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God . * And they lodged round about the house of God , because the charge was upon them , and the opening thereof every morning pertained to them . * And certain of them had the charge of the ministering vessels , that they should bring them in and out by tale micpar #. * Some of them also were appointed to oversee the vessels , and all the instruments of the sanctuary , and the fine flour , and the wine , and the oil , and the frankincense , and the spices . * And some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices . * And Mattithiah , one of the Levites , who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite , had the set office over the things that were made in the pans . * And other of their brethren , of the sons of the Kohathites , were over the shewbread lechem # ma #areketh #, to prepare it every sabbath . * And these are the singers , chief of the fathers of the Levites , who remaining in the chambers were free (8675 ): for they were employed in that work day and night . * These chief fathers of the Levites were chief throughout their generations ; these dwelt at Jerusalem . * And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon Gib # #Abiy Gib #own #, Jehiel Y @#iy #el #, whose wifes name was Maachah Ma #akah #: * And his firstborn son Abdon , then Zur , and Kish , and Baal Ba #al #, and Ner , and Nadab , * And Gedor , and Ahio , and Zechariah , and Mikloth . * And Mikloth begat Shimeam Shim #am #. And they also dwelt with their brethren at Jerusalem , over against their brethren . * And Ner begat Kish ; and Kish begat Saul Sha #uwl #; and Saul begat Jonathan , and Malchishua , and Abinadab , and Eshbaal #Eshba #al #. * And the son of Jonathan was Meribbaal M @riyb Ba #al #: and Meribbaal M @riybegat Micah . * And the sons of Micah were , Pithon , and Melech , and Tahrea , and Ahaz . * And Ahaz begat Jarah Ya #rah #; and Jarah begat Alemeth , and Azmaveth , and Zimri ; and Zimri begat Moza ; * And Moza begat Binea ; and Rephaiah his son , Eleasah #El #asah # his son , Azel his son . * And Azel had six sons , whose names are these , Azrikam , Bocheru , and Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, and Sheariah Sh @#aryah #, and Obadiah , and Hanan : these were the sons of Azel .
