¶ Moreover David and the captains¹ of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph², and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy³ with harps⁴, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:

Of the sons of Asaph⁵; Zaccur, and Joseph, and Nethaniah, and Asarelah⁶, the sons of Asaph under the hands⁷ of Asaph, which prophesied according to the order of the king⁸.

Of Jeduthun⁹: the sons of Jeduthun; Gedaliah¹⁰, and Zeri¹¹, and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah¹³, six¹⁴, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp, to give thanks¹⁵ and to praise the LORD.

Of Heman¹⁶: the sons of Heman; Bukkiah¹⁷, Mattaniah¹⁸, Uzziel¹⁹, Shebuel²¹, and Jerimoth, Hananiah²³, Hanani²⁴, Eliathah²⁵, Giddalti²⁶, and Romamtiezer²⁷, Joshbekashah²⁸, Mallothi²⁹, Hothir³⁰, and Mahazioth:

All these were the sons of Heman the king's seer³¹ in the words³² of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave³³ to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.

All these were under the hands³⁴ of their father for song³⁵ in the house of the LORD, with cymbals, psalteries, and harps, for the service of the house of God, according to the king's order³⁶ to Asaph³⁷, Jeduthun, and Heman.

So the number of them, with their brethren that were instructed in the songs of the LORD, even all that were cunning, was two hundred³⁸ fourscore and eight.
