\v 1 The work groups based on Aaron's descendants were these: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
|
|
\v 2 Nadab and Abihu died before their father died. They had no children, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
|
|
\v 3 David, together with Zadok, a descendant of Eleazar, and Ahimelech, a descendant of Ithamar, divided them into groups for their work as priests.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 4 There were more leading men among Eleazar's descendants than among Ithamar's descendants, so they divided Eleazar's descendants into sixteen groups. They did this by clan heads and by Ithamar's descendants. These divisions were eight in number, corresponding to their clans.
|
|
\v 5 They divided them impartially by lot, for there were officials of the sanctuary and officials of God, from both Eleazar's descendants and Ithamar's descendants.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 6 Shemaiah son of Nethanel the scribe, a Levite, wrote down their names in the presence of the king, the officials, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the leaders of the priestly and Levite families. One clan was drawn by lot from Eleazar's descendants, and then the next would be drawn from Ithamar's descendants.
