4David said, "Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of the Lord; six thousand were officers and judges;

10The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.

11Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons; therefore they became a fathers' house in one reckoning.
