1 Chronicles 6:31-49 - David's Appointees For Music In The Temple

³¹ These are the men to whom David handed responsibility for music in the Temple of the LORD, after the ark came to rest there. ³² They ministered in song in front of the Tent of Meeting, until Solomon had built the Temple of the LORD in Jerusalem. They served in accordance with orders of service designated for them. ³³ These are the men who served, including their descendants: From the descendants of Kohath, there was Heman the singer, who had been fathered by Joel, who had been fathered by Samuel, ³⁴ who had been fathered by Elkanah, who had been fathered by Jeroham, who had been fathered by Eliel, who had been fathered by Toah, ³⁵ who had been fathered by Zuph, who had been fathered by Elkanah, who had been fathered by Mahath, who had been fathered by Amasai, ³⁶ who had been fathered by Elkanah, who had been fathered by Joel, who had been fathered by Azariah, who had been fathered by Zephaniah, ³⁷ who had been fathered by Tahath, who had been fathered by Assir, who had been fathered by Ebiasaph, who had been fathered by Korah, ³⁸ who had been fathered by Izhar, who had been fathered by Kohath, who had been fathered by Levi, who had been fathered by Israel. ³⁹ There was also his brother Asaph, who stood to Heman's right. Asaph had been fathered by Berechiah, who had been fathered by Shimea, ⁴⁰ who had been fathered by Michael, who had been fathered by Baaseiah, who had been fathered by Malchijah, ⁴¹ who had been fathered by Ethni, who had been fathered by Zerah, who had been fathered by Adaiah, ⁴² who had been fathered by Ethan, who had been fathered by Zimmah, who had been fathered by Shimei, ⁴³ who had been fathered by Jahath, who had been fathered by Gershom, and who had been fathered by Levi. ⁴⁴ To Heman's left were their relatives who were Merari's sons: Ethan, who had been fathered by Kishi, who had been fathered by Abdi, who had been fathered by Malluch, ⁴⁵ who had been fathered by Hashabiah, who had been fathered by Amaziah, who had been fathered by Hilkiah, ⁴⁶ who had been fathered by Amzi, who had been fathered by Bani, who had been fathered by Shemer, ⁴⁷ who had been fathered by Mahli, who had been fathered by Mushi, who had been fathered by Merari, who had been fathered by Levi,

⁴⁸ along with their relatives, descendants of Levi who had been appointed for all the service of the tent of the Temple of God. ⁴⁹ Meanwhile, Aaron and his sons presented offerings on the altar of burnt offering and on the altar of incense, carrying out the work of the Most Holy Place, making atonement for Israel in accordance with everything that Moses the servant of God had commanded.
