1. The divisions of the sons of Aaron: Aaron's sons, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
2. Nadab and Abihu died before their father and had no children, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
3. David, Zadok from Eleazar's sons, and Ahimelech from Ithamar's sons, divided them according to their charge in their service.
4. More chief men were found among the sons of Eleazar than among the sons of Ithamar, and they divided them: sixteen heads of fathers' houses for the sons of Eleazar, and eight for the sons of Ithamar according to their fathers' houses.
5. They divided them by lots, one with another, for there were chiefs of the sanctuary and chiefs of God among the sons of Eleazar and the sons of Ithamar.
6. Shemaiah son of Nethanel the scribe, one of the Levites, recorded them before the king and the princes, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers for the priests and the Levites—one father's house taken for Eleazar, and taken for Ithamar.
