1 Chronicles 9:33-44 ▼

33 These singers, leaders of ancestral households of the descendants of Levi, were living in the chambers of the Temple. Freed from other service responsibilities, they were on duty day and night.

34 These leaders of the descendants of Levi, enrolled according to their genealogies, lived in Jerusalem.

35 Jeiel, who fathered Gibeon, lived in the city of Gibeon. His wife was named Maacah.

36 His firstborn son was Abdon, followed by Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab,

37 Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah, and Mikloth.

38 Mikloth fathered Shimeam. They lived across town from their relatives in Jerusalem.

39 Ner fathered Kish, Kish fathered Saul, and Saul fathered Jonathan, Malchi-shua, Abinadab, and Esh-baal.

40 Jonathan fathered Merib-baal, and Merib-baal fathered Micah.

41 Micah's descendants included Pithon, Melech, Tahrea, and Ahaz.

42 Ahaz fathered Jarah, and Jarah fathered Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri. Zimri fathered Moza, and

43 Moza fathered Binea, and Rephaiah was his son, Eleasah his son, and Azel his son.

44 Azel had six descendants with these names: Azrikam, Bocheru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah, and Hanan—these were the descendants of Azel.
