1Chronicles:24:1-6
rsv@1Chronicles:24:1 @ The divisions of the sons of Aaron were these. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abi'hu, Elea'zar, and Ith'amar.
rsv@1Chronicles:24:2 @ But Nadab and Abi'hu died before their father, and had no children, so Elea'zar and Ith'amar became the priests.
rsv@1Chronicles:24:3 @ With the help of Zadok of the sons of Elea'zar, and Ahim'elech of the sons of Ith'amar, David organized them according to the appointed duties in their service.
rsv@1Chronicles:24:4 @ Since more chief men were found among the sons of Elea'zar than among the sons of Ith'amar, they organized them under sixteen heads of fathers' houses of the sons of Elea'zar, and eight of the sons of Ith'amar.
rsv@1Chronicles:24:5 @ They organized them by lot, all alike, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God among both the sons of Elea'zar and the sons of Ith'amar.
rsv@1Chronicles:24:6 @ And the scribe Shemai'ah the son of Nethan'el, a Levite, recorded them in the presence of the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahim'elech the son of Abi'athar, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the priests and of the Levites; one father's house being chosen for Elea'zar and one chosen for Ith'amar.
