1 Chronicles 24 - Easy To Read Version

1 These were the groups of Aaron’s sons: Aaron’s sons were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did. And Nadab and Abihu had no sons. So Eleazar and Ithamar served as the priests.

3 David separated the family groups of Eleazar and Ithamar into two different groups. David did that so those groups could do the duties of work they were given to do. David did this with the help of Zadok and Ahimelech. Zadok was a descendant {\cf2\super [260]} of Eleazar, and Ahimelech was a descendant of Ithamar.

4 There were more leaders from Eleazar’s family than from Ithamar’s. There were 16 leaders from Eleazar’s family and there were eight leaders from Ithamar’s family.

5 Men were chosen from each family. They were chosen by throwing lots. {\cf2\super [261]} Some of the men were chosen to be in charge of the Holy Place. {\cf2\super [262]} And other men were chosen to serve as priests. All of these men were from the families of Eleazar and Ithamar.

6 Shemaiah was the secretary. {\cf2\super [263]} He was Nethanel’s son. Shemaiah was from the family group of Levi. Shemaiah wrote the names of those descendants. {\cf2\super [264]} He wrote those names in front of King David and these leaders: Zadok the priest, Ahimelech, and the leaders from the families of the priests and of the Levites. Ahimelech was Abiathar’s son. Each time they threw the lots {\cf2\super [265]} a man was chosen, and Shemaiah wrote down that man’s name. So they divided the work among the men from families of Eleazar and Ithamar.

7 The first group was Jehoiarib’s group.\par The second group was Jedaiah’s group.\par

8 The third group was Harim’s group.\par The fourth group was Seorim’s group.\par

9 The fifth group was Malkijah’s group.\par The sixth group was Mijamin’s group.\par

10 The seventh group was Hakkoz’s group.\par The eighth group was Abijah’s group.\par

11 The ninth group was Jeshua’s group.\par The tenth group was Shecaniah’s group.\par

12 The eleventh group was Eliashib’s group.\par The twelfth group was Jakim’s group.\par

13 The thirteenth group was Huppah’s group.\par The fourteenth group was Jeshebeab’s group.\par

14 The fifteenth group was Bilgah’s group.\par The sixteenth group was Immer’s group.\par

15 The seventeenth group was Hezir’s group.\par The eighteenth group was Happizzez’s group.\par

16 The nineteenth group was Pethahiah’s group.\par The twentieth group was Jehezkel’s group.\par

17 The twenty-first group was Jakin’s group.\par The twenty-second group was Gamul’s group.\par

18 The twenty-third group was Delaiah’s group.\par The twenty-fourth group was Maaziah’s group.\par

19 These were the groups chosen to serve in the Lord’s temple. {\cf2\super [266]} They obeyed Aaron’s rules for serving in the temple. The Lord God of Israel had given those rules to Aaron.

20 These are the names of the rest of Levi’s descendants:

21 From Rehabiah: Isshiah. (Isshiah was the oldest son.)\par

22 From Izhar family group: Shelomoth.\par From Shelomoth’s family: Jahath.\par

23 Hebron’s oldest son was Jeriah.\par Amariah was Hebron’s second son.\par Jahaziel was his third son,\par and Jekameam was his fourth son.\par

24 Uzziel’s son was Micah.\par Micah’s son was Shamir.\par

25 Isshiah was Micah’s brother. Isshiah’s son was Zechariah.\par

26 Merari’s {\cf2\super [267]} descendants were Mahli, Mushi, and Jaaziah his son.\par

27 Jaaziah son of Merari had sons named Shoham and Zaccur.\par

28 Mahli’s son was Eleazar. But Eleazar did not have sons.\par

29 Kish’s son was Jerahmeel.\par

30 Mushi’s sons were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth.\par

31 They \{were chosen for special jobs\}. They threw lots {\cf2\super [268]} like their relatives, the priests. The priests were Aaron’s descendants. {\cf2\super [269]} They threw lots in front of David the king, Zadok, Ahimelech, and the leaders of the priests’ and Levite families. The older families and the younger families were treated the same when their jobs were chosen.
