Evangelical Heritage Version
1 Chronicles 23:9-11
Evangelical Heritage Version
9 The sons of Shimei[a] were Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran, three in all. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.
10 The sons of Shimei were Jahath, Ziza,[b] Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei. 11 Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second, but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons. That is why they were counted as only one father’s house.[c]
Footnotes
