24:1 And [they number] the sons of Aaron in
[their] division, Nadab, and Abiud, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
24:2 And Nadab and Abiud died before their father, and they had no sons: so
Eleazar and Ithamar the sons of Aaron ministered as priests.
24:3 And David distributed them, even Sadoc of the sons of Eleazar, and
Achimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their numbering, according
to their service, according to the houses of their fathers.
24:4 And there were found [among] the sons of Eleazar more chiefs of the
mighty ones, than of the sons of Ithamar: and he divided them, sixteen heads
of families to the sons of Eleazar, eight according to [their] families to
the sons of Ithamar.
24:5 And he divided them according to their lots, one with the other; for
there were those who had charge of the holy things, and those who had charge
of the [house] of the Lord among the sons of Eleazar, and among the sons of
Ithamar.
24:6 And Samaias the son of Nathanael, the scribe, [of the family] of Levi,
wrote them down before the king, and the princes, and Sadoc the priest, and
Achimelech the son of Abiathar [were present]; and the heads of the families
of the priests and the Levites, each of a household [were assigned] one to
Eleazar, and one to Ithamar.

father, as the Lord God of Israel commanded.
24:20 And for the sons of Levi that were left, [even] for the sons of Ambram,

the king; Sadoc also, and Achimelech, and the chiefs of the families of the
priests and of the Levites, principal heads of families, even as their
younger brethren. |
24:1 Now these are the divisions of the sons
of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
24:2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children:
therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
24:3 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.
24:4 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.
24:5 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.
24:6 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
