These were the families of the Zorathites.

Of Gershom: his son Libni,
his son Jahath, his son Zimmah,

son of Jahath,
son of Gershom, son of Levi.

Shimei’s sons: Jahath, Zizah, Jeush, and Beriah. Those were Shimei’s sons—four.

Jahath was the first and Zizah was the second; however, Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they became an ancestral house and received a single assignment.

From the Izharites: Shelomoth;
from Shelomoth’s sons: Jahath.

The men were doing the work with integrity. Their overseers were Jahath and Obadiah, Levites from the Merarites, and Zechariah and Meshullam from the Kohathites as supervisors. The Levites were all skilled with musical instruments.
