1 Chronicles 26:1-11 ▼

1 The guild of trustees included, from the descendants of Korah, Kore's son Meshelemiah from Asaph's descendants;

2 Meshelemiah's sons Zechariah, his firstborn, Jediael his second, Zebadiah his third, Jathniel his fourth,

3 Elam his fifth, Jehohanan his sixth, and Eliehoenai his seventh;

4 Obed-edom's sons Shemaiah, his firstborn, Jehozabad his second, Joah his third, Sachar his fourth, Nethanel his fifth,

5 Ammiel his sixth, Issachar his seventh, and Peullethai his eighth, since God had blessed him.

6 Furthermore, his son Shemaiah had sons born to him who wielded authority in their ancestral households, since they were mighty men of valor.

7 These sons of Shemaiah included Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad, whose brothers were valiant, able men, Elihu and Semachiah.

8 All of these sons of Obed-edom, along with their sons and brothers, were valiant men, fully qualified for duty—62 descendants of Obed-edom.

9 Meshelemiah had 18 sons and brothers who were valiant men.

10 Hosah, one of Merari's sons, had these sons: Shimri their chief (though not the firstborn, his father had appointed him chief),

11 Hilkiah his second, Tebaliah his third, and Zechariah his fourth, with a total of 13 sons and brothers of Hosah
