1 Chronicles 25:1-8

[1] Moreover David  and the captains  of the host  separated  to the service  of the sons  of Asaph,  and of Heman,  and of Jeduthun,  with harps,  with psalteries,  and with cymbals:  and the number  according to their service  was: [2] Of the sons  of Asaph;  Zaccur,  and Joseph,  and Nethaniah,  and Asarelah,  the sons  of Asaph  under the hands  of Asaph,  which prophesied  according to the order  of the king.  [3] Of Jeduthun:  the sons  of Jeduthun;  Gedaliah,  and Zeri,  and Jeshaiah,  Hashabiah,  and Mattithiah,  six,  under the hands  of their father  Jeduthun,  who prophesied  with a harp,  to give thanks  and to praise  the LORD.  [4] Of Heman:  the sons  of Heman;  Bukkiah,  Mattaniah,  Uzziel,  Shebuel,  and Jerimoth,  Hananiah,  Hanani,  Eliathah,  Giddalti,  and Romamtiezer,  Joshbekashah,  Mallothi,  Hothir,  and Mahazioth:  [5] All these were the sons  of Heman  the king's  seer  in the words  of God,  to lift up  the horn.  And God  gave  to Heman  fourteen  sons  and three  daughters.  [6] All these were under the hands  of their father  for song  in the house  of the LORD,  with cymbals,  psalteries,  and harps,  for the service  of the house  of God,  according to the king's  order  to Asaph,  Jeduthun,  and Heman.  [7] So the number  of them, with their brethren  that were instructed  in the songs  of the LORD,  even all that were cunning,  was two hundred  fourscore  and eight.  [8] And they cast  lots,  ward  against  ward, as well the small  as the great,  the teacher  as the scholar.
