1 Chronicles 27:1-34 CEB

[1] This is the list of the Israelites, the heads of households, the commanders of units of a thousand and a hundred, and their officers. They served the king in every way their divisions required, and they were on duty for a month at a time through all the months of the year. Each division numbered 24,000. [2] In charge of the first division for the first month was Jashobeam, Zabdiel’s son. His division numbered 24,000. [3] He was a Perezite and the head of all the army officers for the first month. [4] In charge of the division for the second month was Dodai the Ahohite. His division numbered 24,000. [5] The third army commander for the third month was Benaiah the chief priest Jehoiada’s son. His division numbered 24,000. [6] This Benaiah was a warrior of the Thirty and in command of the Thirty. In command of his division was his son Ammizabad. [7] The fourth for the fourth month was Asahel, Joab’s brother, and after him his son Zebadiah. His division numbered 24,000. [8] The fifth for the fifth month was the commander Shammoth the Zerahite. His division numbered 24,000. [9] The sixth for the sixth month was Ira the Tekoite Ikkesh’s son. His division numbered 24,000. [10] The seventh for the seventh month was Helez the Pelonite from Ephraim’s family. His division numbered 24,000. [11] The eighth for the eighth month was Sibbecai the Hushathite from the Zerahites. His division numbered 24,000. [12] The ninth for the ninth month was Abiezer of Annathoth from the Benjaminites. His division numbered 24,000. [13] The tenth for the tenth month was Maharai the Netophathite from the Zerahites. His division numbered 24,000. [14] The eleventh for the eleventh month was Benaiah the Pirathonite from Ephraim’s family. His division numbered 24,000. [15] The twelfth for the twelfth month was Heldai the Netophathite from Othniel. His division numbered 24,000. [16] In charge of the tribes of Israel: for the Reubenites—the leader was Eliezer, Zichri’s son; for the Simeonites—Shephatiah, Maacah’s son; [17] for the Levites—Hashabiah, Kemuel’s son; for Aaron—Zadok; [18] for Judah—Eliab, one of David’s relatives; for Issachar—Omri, Michael’s son; [19] for Zebulun—Ishmaiah, Obadiah’s son; for Naphtali—Jerimoth, Azriel’s son; [20] for the Ephraimites—Hoshea, Azaziah’s son; for half the tribe of Manasseh—Joel, Pedaiah’s son; [21] for half the tribe of Manasseh in Gilead—Iddo, Zechariah’s son; for Benjamin—Jaasiel, Abner’s son; [22] for Dan—Azarel, Jeroham’s son. These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel. [23] But David didn’t count those younger than 20 years of age, because the LORD had promised to make Israel as numerous as the stars in the sky. [24] Joab, Zeruiah’s son, began to count them, but he never finished. Since Israel experienced wrath because of this, the number wasn’t entered into the official records of King David. [25] In charge of the king’s treasuries—Azmaveth, Adiel’s son; in charge of the treasuries in the country, cities, villages, and towers—Jonathan, Uzziah’s son; [26] in charge of agricultural workers cultivating the fertile land—Ezri, Chelub’s son; [27] in charge of the vineyards—Shimei the Ramathite; in charge of the vineyard’s produce for the wine cellars—Zabdi the Shiphmite; [28] in charge of the olive and sycamore trees in the western foothills—Baal-hanan the Gederite; in charge of the stores of oil—Joash; [29] in charge of the cattle that grazed in Sharon—Shitrai the Sharonite; in charge of the cattle in the valleys—Shaphat, Adlai’s son; [30] in charge of the camels—Obil the Ishmaelite; in charge of the female donkeys—Jehdeiah the Meronothite; [31] in charge of the flocks of sheep and goats—Jaziz the Hagrite. All these were stewards of King David’s property. [32] Jonathan, David’s uncle, was a counselor, a man of understanding, and a scribe. Jehiel, Hachmoni’s son, took care of the king’s sons. [33] Ahithophel was the king’s counselor, and Hushai the Archite was the king’s political advisor. [34] After Ahithophel came Benaiah’s son Jehoiada, and Abiathar. Joab was commander of the king’s army.
