1 Chronicles 27:16-34 ▼

16 And over the tribes of Israel: Over the Reubenite, the officer was Eliezer son of Zichri; over the Simeonite, Shephatiah son of Maacah;

17 over Levi was Hashabiah son of Kemuel; over Aaron, Zadok;

18 over Judah was Elihu of the brothers of David; over Issachar, Omri son of Michael;

19 over Zebulun was Ishmaiah son of Obadiah; over Naphtali, Jerimoth son of Azriel;

20 over the sons of Ephraim was Hoshea son of Azaziah; over the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joel son of Pedaiah;

21 over the half of Manasseh in Gilead was Iddo son of Zechariah; over Benjamin, Jaasiel son of Abner;

22 over Dan was Azarel son of Jeroham. These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel.

23 David did not take their number from a son of twenty years and under, because YHWH had said He would multiply Israel like the stars of the heavens.

24 Joab son of Zeruiah began to number, and he did not finish, and there was wrath for this upon Israel. The count did not go up into the number of the Words of the Days of King David.

25 And over the treasuries of the king was Azmaveth son of Adiel; and over the storehouses in the field, in the cities, and in the villages, and in the towers, Jonathan son of Uzziah;

26 and over those who did the work of the field for the service of the ground was Ezri son of Chelub;

27 and over the vineyards was Shimei the Ramathite; and over the vineyards for the treasuries of wine was Zabdi the Shiphmite;

28 and over the olive trees and the sycamore trees that are in the Shephelah was Baal-hanan the Gederite; and over the store of the oil was Joash;

29 and over the herd that fed in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite; and over the herd in the valleys was Shaphat son of Adlai;

30 and over the camels was Obil the Ishmaelite; and over the donkeys was Jehdeiah the Meronothite;

31 and over the flock was Jaziz the Hagrite. All these were heads of the property that was unto King David.

32 And Jonathan uncle of David—was a counselor, a wise man, and he was a scribe; and Jehiel son of Hachmoni was with the sons of the king;

33 and Ahithophel was counselor of the king; and Hushai the Archite was companion of the king.

34 And after Ahithophel was Jehoiada son of Benaiah, and Abiathar; and the head of the host of the king was Joab.
