1 Chronicles 25:1-31
25 Further, David and the chiefs+ of the service groups+ separated for the service some of the sons of Aʹsaph, Heʹman+ and Je·duʹthun+ the ones prophesying with the harps,+ with the stringed instruments+ and with the cymbals.+ And from their number the official men for their service came to be.
2 Of the sons of Aʹsaph, Zacʹcur and Joseph+ and Neth·a·niʹah and Ash·a·reʹlah,+ the sons of Aʹsaph under the control of Aʹsaph+ the one prophesying under the control of the king.
3 Of Je·duʹthun:+ the sons of Je·duʹthun, Ged·a·liʹah+ and Zeʹri+ and Je·shaʹiah,+ [and Shimʹe·i,]* Hash·a·biʹah and Mat·ti·thiʹah,+ six, under the control of their father Je·duʹthun, who was prophesying with the harp for thanking and praising Jehovah.+
4 Of Heʹman:+ the sons of Heʹman, Buk·kiʹah,+ Mat·ta·niʹah,+ Uzʹzi·el,+ Shebʹu·el* and Jerʹi·moth, Han·a·niʹah,+ Ha·naʹni, E·liʹa·thah,+ Gid·dalʹti+ and Ro·mamʹti-eʹzer,+ Josh·be·kashʹah,+ Mal·loʹthi,+ Hoʹthir,+ Ma·haʹzi·oth.
5 All these were sons of Heʹman, a visionary+ of the king in the things of the [true] God to raise up his horn; thus the [true] God proceeded to give Heʹman fourteen sons and three daughters.+
6 All these were under the control of their father in song at the house of Jehovah, with cymbals,+ stringed instruments+ and harps+ for the service of the house of the [true] God.
Under the control of the king were Aʹsaph and Je·duʹthun and Heʹman.+
7 And the number of them together with their brothers trained in song to Jehovah,+ all experts,+ came to be two hundred and eighty-eight.
8 So they cast lots+ as to the things to be taken care of, the little being just the same as the great,+ the expert+ along with the learner.
9 And the lot proceeded to come out: the first belonging to Aʹsaph for Joseph,+ for Ged·a·liʹah+ the second (he and his brothers and his sons were twelve);
