1 Chronicles 24:4-8

[4] And there were more  chief  men  found  of the sons  of Eleazar  than of the sons  of Ithamar;  and thus were they divided.  Among the sons  of Eleazar  there were sixteen  chief men  of the house  of their fathers,  and eight  among the sons  of Ithamar  according to the house  of their fathers.  [5] Thus were they divided  by lot,  one sort  for the governors  of the sanctuary,  and governors  of the house of God,  were of the sons  of Eleazar,  and of the sons  of Ithamar.  [6] And Shemaiah  the son  of Nethaneel  the scribe,  one of the Levites,  wrote  them before  the king,  and the princes,  and Zadok  the priest,  and Ahimelech  the son  of Abiathar,  and before the chief  of the fathers  of the priests  and Levites:  one  principal  household  being taken  for Eleazar,  and one taken  for Ithamar.  [7] Now the first  lot  came forth  to Jehoiarib,  the second  to Jedaiah,  [8] The third  to Harim,  the fourth  to Seorim,
