So the Levites appointed Heman son of Joel; from his relatives, Asaph son of Berechiah; and from their relatives the Merarites, Ethan son of Kushaiah.

These are the men who served with their sons.

From the Kohathites: Heman the singer,
son of Joel, son of Samuel,

Heman’s relative was Asaph, who stood at his right hand:
Asaph son of Berechiah, son of Shimea,

On the left, their relatives were Merari’s sons:
Ethan son of Kishi, son of Abdi,
son of Malluch,

His firstborn son’s name was Joel and his second was Abijah. They were judges in Beer-sheba.

The singers Heman, Asaph, and Ethan were to sound the bronze cymbals;

David and the officers of the army also set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun, who were to prophesy accompanied by lyres, harps, and cymbals. This is the list of the men who performed their service:
