10-11 The subclans of Shimei were named after his four sons: Jahath was greatest, Zizah[a] was next, and Jeush and Beriah were combined into a single subclan because neither had many sons.

12 The division of Kohath was subdivided into four groups named after his sons Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
