New Living Translation (NLT)
1 Chronicles 23
16 The descendants of Gershom included Shebuel, the family leader.
17 Eliezer had only one son, Rehabiah, the family leader. Rehabiah had numerous descendants.
18 The descendants of Izhar included Shelomith, the family leader.
19 The descendants of Hebron included Jeriah (the family leader), Amariah (the second), Jahaziel (the third), and Jekameam (the fourth).
20 The descendants of Uzziel included Micah (the family leader) and Isshiah (the second).
21 The descendants of Merari included Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli were Eleazar and Kish.
22 Eleazar died with no sons, only daughters. His daughters married their cousins, the sons of Kish.
23 Three of the descendants of Mushi were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth.
24 These were the descendants of Levi by clans, the leaders of their family groups, registered carefully by name. Each had to be twenty years old or older to qualify for service in the house of the LORD.
25 For David said, “The LORD, the God of Israel, has given us peace, and he will always live in Jerusalem.
26 Now the Levites will no longer need to carry the Tabernacle and its furnishings from place to place.”
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
