1
Moreover David and the captains of the army separated for the service [some] of the sons of Asaph, of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who [should] prophesy with harps, stringed instruments, and cymbals. And the number of the skilled men performing their service was:
2
Of the sons of Asaph: Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Asharelah; the sons of Asaph [were] under the direction of Asaph, who prophesied according to the order of the king.
3
Of Jeduthun, the sons of Jeduthun: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the direction of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp to give thanks and to praise the LORD.
4
Of Heman, the sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamti-Ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, [and] Mahazioth.
5
All these [were] the sons of Heman the king's seer in the words of God, to exalt his horn. For God gave Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
6
All these [were] under the direction of their father for the music [in] the house of the LORD, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and harps, for the service of the house of God. Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman [were] under the authority of the king.
7
So the number of them, with their brethren who were instructed in the songs of the LORD, all who were skillful, [was] two hundred and eighty-eight.
8
And they cast lots for their duty, the small as well as the great, the teacher with the student.
9
