Now
these are
the divisions of the sons
of Aaron. The sons of Aaron ;
Nadab, and
Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
These were
the divisions of the descendants
of Aaron. The sons of Aaron were
Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children:
therefore
Eleazar and Ithamar executed
the
priest's
office
.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did
, and they
had no sons;
so
Eleazar and Ithamar served
as
priests
.
And
David
distributed
them,
both
Zadok
of
the sons
of Eleazar,
and Ahimelech of
the
sons
of
Ithamar
, according to their
offices in
their service.
With
the help
of Eleazar’s
descendant
Zadok
and Ithamar’s
descendant
Ahimelech, David
divided
them
according to the
offices of
their service.
And
there
were
more chief
men
found of
the
sons
of
Eleazar
than of
the
sons
of Ithamar, and
thus
were
they divided. Among
the
sons
of
Eleazar
there were sixteen chief
men
of the house
of their
fathers,
and eight among
the sons
of Ithamar according
to
the
house
of
their
fathers
.
Since
more leaders
were
found among
Eleazar’s
descendants
than those
of Ithamar, they were
divided accordingly
. There were sixteen heads
of families
from
the descendants
of Eleazar
and eight from
the descendants
of Ithamar.
Thus were
they divided by lot, one
sort
with
another;
for the
governors
of the sanctuary ,
and governors
of
the
house
of God ,
were
of
the
sons
of
Eleazar,
and of
the
sons
of
Ithamar
.
Thus they were
divided by lot, for there
were
officers
of the sanctuary and officers
of God among
both
Eleazar’s
and Ithamar’s
descendants
.
And
Shemaiah
the son
of
Nethaneel
the
scribe, one
of the
Levites
, wrote
them
before
the king ,
and the princes,
and
Zadok the priest, and
Ahimelech the
son of Abiathar, and before
the chief
of the
fathers
of the priests and Levites :
one principal
household
being taken for
Eleazar, and one taken
for
Ithamar.
The scribe, Shemaiah
son
of Nethanel
, a
Levite,
recorded
their
names
in
the presence
of
the
king and of
the officers:
Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the heads
of families
of the priests and the
Levites —
one family
being taken from
Eleazar, and then
one from
Ithamar.
Now

forth
to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,

These
were
the
orderings
of
them
in
their service to
come
into
the house of the LORD, according to their manner,
under
Aaron their
father
, as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
This

order
for
