1 Chronicles

1 Now the chil­dren of Is­rael af­ter their num­ber, ­to wit, the chief fa­thers and cap­tains of thou­sands and hun­dreds, and their of­fi­cers that served the king in any mat­ter of the cours­es, which came in and went out month by month through­out all the months of the year, of ev­ery course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 2 Over the first course for the first month was Jashobeam the son of Zab­diel: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 3 Of the chil­dren of Perez was the chief of all the cap­tains of the host for the first month. 4 And over the course of the sec­ond month was Do­dai an Aho­hite, and of his course was Mik­loth also the ruler: in his course like­wise were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 5 The third cap­tain of the host for the third month was Be­na­iah the son of Je­hoia­da, a chief priest: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 6 This is that Be­na­iah, who was mighty among the thir­ty, and above the thir­ty: and in his course was Am­miz­abad his son. 7 The fourth captain for the fourth month was Asa­hel the broth­er of Joab, and Ze­ba­di­ah his son af­ter him: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 8 The fifth cap­tain for the fifth month was Shamhuth the Izrahite: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 9 The sixth captain for the sixth month was Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 10 The sev­enth captain for the sev­enth month was Helez the Pelonite, of the chil­dren of Ephraim: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 11 The eighth captain for the eighth month was Sibbe­cai the Hushathite, of the Zarhites: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 12 The ninth captain for the ninth month was Abiez­er the Ane­toth­ite, of the Ben­jamites: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 13 The tenth captain for the tenth month was Ma­harai the Ne­tophathite, of the Zarhites: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 14 The eleventh captain for the eleventh month was Be­na­iah the Pi­rathonite, of the chil­dren of Ephraim: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 15 The twelfth captain for the twelfth month was Hel­dai the Ne­tophathite, of Oth­niel: and in his course were twen­ty and four thou­sand. 16 Fur­ther­more over the tribes of Is­rael: the ruler of the Reuben­ites was Eliez­er the son of Zichri: of the Sime­onites, Shep­ha­ti­ah the son of Maachah: 17 Of the Levites, Hashabi­ah the son of Ke­muel: of the Aa­ronites, Zadok: 18 Of Ju­dah, Eli­hu, one of the brethren of David: of Is­sachar, Omri the son of Michael: 19 Of Ze­bu­lun, Ish­ma­iah the son of Oba­di­ah: of Naph­tali, Je­r­i­moth the son of Azriel: 20 Of the chil­dren of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Azazi­ah: of the half tribe of Man­asseh, Joel the son of Peda­iah: 21 Of the half tribe of Man­asseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zechari­ah: of Ben­jamin, Jaasiel the son of Ab­n­er: 22 Of Dan, Aza­reel the son of Jero­ham. These were the princes of the tribes of Is­rael. 23 But David took not the num­ber of them from twen­ty years old and un­der: be­cause the LORD had said he would in­crease Is­rael like to the stars of the heav­ens. 24 Joab the son of Zeruiah be­gan to num­ber, but he fin­ished not, be­cause there fell wrath for it against Is­rael; nei­ther was the num­ber put in the ac­count of the chron­i­cles of king David. 25 And over the king's trea­sures was Az­maveth the son of Adiel: and over the store­hous­es in the fields, in the cities, and in the vil­lages, and in the cas­tles, was Je­honathan the son of Uzzi­ah: 26 And over them that did the work of the field for tillage of the ground was Ezri the son of Chelub: 27 And over the vine­yards was Shimei the Ra­math­ite: over the in­crease of the vine­yards for the wine cel­lars was Zab­di the Shiph­mite: 28 And over the olive trees and the syco­more trees that were in the low plains was Baal­hanan the Gederite: and over the cel­lars of oil was Joash: 29 And over the herds that fed in Sharon was Shi­trai the Sha­ronite: and over the herds that were in the val­leys was Shaphat the son of Ad­lai: 30 Over the camels also was Obil the Ish­maelite: and over the ass­es was Je­hdeiah the Meronoth­ite: 31 And over the flocks was Jaz­iz the Hagerite. All these were the rulers of the sub­stance which was king David's. 32 Also Jonathan David's un­cle was a coun­sel­lor, a wise man, and a scribe: and Je­hiel the son of Hachmoni was with the king's sons: 33 And Ahithophel was the king's coun­sel­lor: and Hushai the Ar­chite was the king's com­pan­ion: 34 And af­ter Ahithophel was Je­hoia­da the son of Be­na­iah, and Abi­athar: and the gen­er­al of the king's army was Joab.
