INTRODUCTION TO 1 CHRONICLES 9

The genealogies of the several tribes being given according as they were written in the books of the kings of Israel 1 Chronicles 9:1 an account follows of those who first settled in Jerusalem after their return from the Babylonish captivity; of the Israelites 1 Chronicles 9:2 of the priests 1 Chronicles 9:10 of the Levites and of the charge and offices of several of the priests and Levites 1 Chronicles 9:14 and the chapter is concluded with a repetition of the genealogy of the ancestors and posterity of Saul king of Israel 1 Chronicles 9:35.

 

1 Chronicles 9:1  So all Israel was recorded by genealogies and indeed they were inscribed in the book of the kings of Israel. But Judah was carried away captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness.

   YLT  1And all Israel have reckoned themselves by genealogy and lo they are written on the book of the kings of Israel and Judah -- they were removed to Babylon for their trespass.

So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies .... Not now by the writer of this book in the preceding chapters; for two of the tribes are not reckoned at all and the rest but in part; but there had been kept an exact account of them:

and behold they were written in the book of the kings of Israel; not in the canonical book or books of Kings but in the annals journals and diaries which each king took care to be kept with some exactness often referred to in the preceding books; out of which this writer under a divine direction had taken what was proper to be continued and had carried the genealogy down to the captivity of the ten tribes; but the genealogy being lost with them he could proceed no further nor say anything more concerning them:

but Judah; for so the word should be stopped and read according to the Hebrew accents:

who were carried away to Babylon for their transgression; their idolatry and were now returned again; of them the writer proposes to give a further account.

 

1 Chronicles 9:2  2 And the first inhabitants who dwelt in their possessions in their cities were Israelites priests Levites and the Nethinim.

   YLT  2And the first inhabitants who [are] in their possession in their cities of Israel [are] the priests the Levites and the Nethinim.

Now the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions in their cities .... Who first returned from Babylon upon the proclamation of Cyrus and enjoyed their former possessions and dwelt in the cities they had before or in such as were allotted them or they chose:

were the Israelites the priests Levites and the Nethinims; the whole body that returned were divided into four classes as they had been before the captivity; the Israelites were the common people in general the body politic; the priests the ecclesiastics who officiated in sacred things; the Levites who ministered to them; and the Nethinims were such persons as were "given" as the word signifies to do servile work for the sanctuary as to be hewers of wood and drawers of water; such were the Gibeonites Joshua 9:27 and such as were appointed by David for such work see Ezra 8:20.

 

1 Chronicles 9:3  3 Now in Jerusalem the children of Judah dwelt and some of the children of Benjamin and of the children of Ephraim and Manasseh:

   YLT  3And in Jerusalem dwelt of the sons of Judah and of the sons of Benjamin and of the sons of Ephraim and Manasseh:

And in Jerusalem dwelt of the children of Judah and of the children of Benjamin .... Of which tribes were the largest number that went into and returned out of captivity:

and of the children of Ephraim and Manasseh; such of those tribes who had joined the others when Jeroboam introduced his idolatry or had fled to them when Samaria was besieged and taken by Shalmaneser and so went into captivity with Judah and now returned; and as many of them as took the advantage of the proclamation of Cyrus who were carried captive with the ten tribes.

 

1 Chronicles 9:4  4 Uthai the son of Ammihud the son of Omri the son of Imri the son of Bani of the descendants of Perez the son of Judah.

   YLT  4Uthai son of Ammihud son of Omri son of Imri son of Bani of the sons of Pharez son of Judah.

Uthai the son of Ammihud .... Called Athaiah Nehemiah 11:4 though his ancestors there are differently reckoned here; his genealogy here is traced from his father Ammihud through Omri Imri Bani Pharez to Judah.

 

1 Chronicles 9:5  5 Of the Shilonites: Asaiah the firstborn and his sons.

   YLT  5And of the Shilonite: Asaiah the first-born and his sons.

And of the Shilonites .... Not called so from the city of Shiloh which was in Ephraim; whereas these here intended were of the tribe of Judah and were either the descendants of a man whose name was Shiloni Nehemiah 11:5 or rather these are the same with the Shelanites Numbers 26:20 so called from Shelah the son of Judah; and so the Targum here is "and of the tribe of Shelah:"

Asaiah the firstborn and his sons; the same with Maaseiah Nehemiah 11:5.

 

1 Chronicles 9:6  6 Of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel and their brethren—six hundred and ninety.

   YLT  6And of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel and their brethren six hundred and ninety.

And of the sons of Zerah .... Another son of Judah:

Jeuel and their brethren; six hundred and ninety; or their kinsmen; for this number includes all of the posterity of Pharez Shelah and Zerah mentioned.

 

1 Chronicles 9:7  7 Of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam the son of Hodaviah the son of Hassenuah;

   YLT  7And of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu son of Meshullam son of Hodaviah son of Hassenuah

And of the sons of Benjamin .... Who were of the tribe of Benjamin and went with Judah into captivity and returned with them and such of them as dwelt in Jerusalem before that:

Sallu the son of Meshullam; whose pedigree is differently given Nehemiah 11:7

the son of Hodaviah the son of Hassenaah; perhaps these men had two names there called Joel and Pedaiah.

 

1 Chronicles 9:8  8 Ibneiah the son of Jeroham; Elah the son of Uzzi the son of Michri; Meshullam the son of Shephatiah the son of Reuel the son of Ibnijah;

   YLT  8and Ibneiah son of Jeroham and Elah son of Uzzi son of Michri and Meshullam son of Shephatiah son of Reuel son of Ibnijah.

And Ibneiah the son of Jeroham .... Who with two more Elah and Meshullam whose ancestors are given of whom we have no mention elsewhere were all of the tribe of Benjamin said to settle at Jerusalem.

 

1 Chronicles 9:9  9 and their brethren according to their generations—nine hundred and fifty-six. All these men were heads of a father’s house in their fathers’ houses.

   YLT  9And their brethren according to their generations [are] nine hundred and fifty and six. All these [are] men heads of fathers according to the house of their fathers.

And their brethren according to their generations nine hundred amd fifty and six .... Which was the number of the Benjaminites there resident put together and which greatly exceeded that of Judah 1 Chronicles 9:6.

all these men were chief of the fathers in the house of their fathers; principal men in the families of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin even all the seven before mentioned.

 

1 Chronicles 9:10  10 Of the priests: Jedaiah Jehoiarib and Jachin;

   YLT  10And of the priests: Jedaiah and Jehoiarib and Jachin

And of the priests .... Who returned and dwelt at Jerusalem:

Jedaiah and Jehoiarib and Jachin; Jedaiah was the son of Jehoiarib and Jachin is called Jachin Nehemiah 11:10.

 

1 Chronicles 9:11  11 Azariah the son of Hilkiah the son of Meshullam the son of Zadok the son of Meraioth the son of Ahitub the officer over the house of God;

   YLT  11and Azariah son of Hilkiah son of Meshullam son of Zadok son of Meraioth son of Ahitub leader in the house of God;

And Azariah the son of Hilkiah .... That is the son of Azariah whose name was Seraiah see 1 Chronicles 6:13 whose pedigree is traced up from Hilkiah through Meshullam called Shallum 1 Chronicles 6:12. Zadok Meraioth to Ahitub:

the ruler of the house of God; high priest in it; which is to be understood of Ahitub and not of Azariah or Seraiah in the time of Ezra; for Joshua was then high priest.

 

1 Chronicles 9:12  12 Adaiah the son of Jeroham the son of Pashur the son of Malchijah; Maasai the son of Adiel the son of Jahzerah the son of Meshullam the son of Meshillemith the son of Immer;

   YLT  12and Adaiah son of Jeroham son of Pashhur son of Malchijah and Maasai son of Adiel son of Jahzerah son of Meshullam son of Meshillemith son of Immer.

And Adaiah the son of Jeroham the son of Pashur .... In this genealogy between Jeroham and Pashur were three more here omitted Pelaliah Amzi Zechariah Nehemiah 11:12 and then Pashur the son of Malchijah as here:

and Maasiai the son of Adiel; whose pedigree is traced up from hence through Jahzerah Meshullam Meshillemith to Immer; one of the five heads of the courses settled by David 1 Chronicles 24:14. The names of this man and of his ancestors are given with some variation in Nehemiah 11:13.

 

1 Chronicles 9:13  13 and their brethren heads of their fathers’ houses—one thousand seven hundred and sixty. They were very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.

  YLT  13And their brethren heads to the house of their fathers a thousand and seven hundred and sixty mighty in valour [are] for the work of the service of the house of God.

And their brethren heads of the house of their fathers one thousand and seven hundred and threescore. These with other priests made up this number which was greater than those of Judah and Benjamin that dwelt in Jerusalem put together:

very able men for the work of the service of the house of God: men that had not only strength of body which some part of the work of the priests required; but had courage and fortitude of mind to set about the service of God with cheerfulness and to preserve it from corruption.

 

1 Chronicles 9:14  14 Of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub the son of Azrikam the son of Hashabiah of the sons of Merari;

   YLT  14And of the Levites: Shemaiah son of Hashshub son of Azrikam son of Hashabiah of the sons of Merari;

And of the Levites .... Having given an account of the two first classes of the people the Israelites and priests the author of the book now proceeds to the Levites the third class; and the first mentioned is Shemaiah whose ancestors Hashub Azrikam and Hashabiah:

were of the sons of Merari; the third son of Levi.

 

1 Chronicles 9:15  15 Bakbakkar Heresh Galal and Mattaniah the son of Micah the son of Zichri the son of Asaph;

   YLT  15and Bakbakkar Heresh and Galal and Mattaniah son of Micah son of Zichri son of Asaph;

And Bakbakkar Heresh and Galal and Mattaniah .... Four more of the chief of the Levites the pedigree of the last of which is traced up by Micah and Zichri to Asaph the singer in the times of David a descendant of Gershon the first son of Levi; the first of these is thought by HillerusF20Onamastic. Sacr. p. 401 548. to be the same with Bakbukiah Nehemiah 11:17.

 

1 Chronicles 9:16  16 Obadiah the son of Shemaiah the son of Galal the son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah the son of Asa the son of Elkanah who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.

   YLT  16and Obadiah son of Shemariah son of Galal son of Jeduthun and Berechiah son of Asa son of Elkanah who is dwelling in the villages of the Netophathite.

And Obadiah the son of Shemaiah .... Called Abda the son of Shammua Nehemiah 11:17.

the son of Galal the son of Jeduthun; who was Ethan another of the singers in the time of David:

and Berechiah the son of Asa the son of Elkanah that dwelt in the villages of the Netophathites; the villages about Netophah which was in the tribe of Judah 1 Chronicles 2:54 Nehemiah 7:26 which may be understood either of Elkanah the ancestor of Berechiah whose dwelling was there; or of Berechiah and must be rendered:

who had dwelt there; for now he dwelt at Jerusalem.

 

1 Chronicles 9:17  17 And the gatekeepers were Shallum Akkub Talmon Ahiman and their brethren. Shallum was the chief.

   YLT  17And the gatekeepers [are] Shallum and Akkub and Talmon and Ahiman and their brethren -- Shallum [is] the head;

And the porters .... Or keepers of the gates of the tabernacle:

were Shallum and Akkub and Talmon and Ahiman and their brethren; Shallum was the chief; of these four porters and their brethren.

 

1 Chronicles 9:18  18 Until then they had been gatekeepers for the camps of the children of Levi at the King’s Gate on the east.

   YLT  18and hitherto they [are] at the gate of the king eastward; they [are] the gatekeepers for the companies of the sons of Levi.

Who hitherto waited in the king's gate eastward .... At the gate through which the king went into the temple and was at the east of it; and here these porters were placed in the same order after the captivity and their return from it as before:

they were porters in the companies of the children of Levi; or in the camp of Levi which was placed around the tabernacle as in the wilderness: the Septuagint version is "these are the gates of the camp of the children of Levi"; at which these porters were placed.

 

1 Chronicles 9:19  19 Shallum the son of Kore the son of Ebiasaph the son of Korah and his brethren from his father’s house the Korahites were in charge of the work of the service gatekeepers of the tabernacle. Their fathers had been keepers of the entrance to the camp of the Lord.

   YLT  19And Shallum son of Kore son of Ebiasaph son of Korah and his brethren of the house of his father the Korahites [are] over the work of the service keepers of the thresholds of the tent and their fathers [are] over the camp of Jehovah keepers of the entrance;

And Shallum the son of Kore .... The same as in 1 Chronicles 9:17 whose pedigree is traced up to Ebiasaph the son of Korah see Exodus 6:24.

and his brethren of the house of his father the Korahites; so called because they descended from Korah:

were over the work of the service keepers of the gates of the tabernacle; until the temple was built:

and their fathers being over the host of the Lord; the Levites who were the Lord's army and whose service is represented as a warfare Numbers 4:5.

were keepers of the entry; into the tabernacle that none might enter that were impure; or into the court of the priests excepting priests; or into the holiest of all as Kimchi suggests.

 

1 Chronicles 9:20  20 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar had been the officer over them in time past; the Lord was with him.

   YLT  20and Phinehas son of Eleazar hath been leader over them formerly; Jehovah [is] with him.

And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them in time past .... Over the host over the Levites and the chief of them; which is to be understood of Phinehas the son of Eleazar in the time of Moses who succeeded his father in that post see Numbers 3:32 though some think as Kimchi observes that this was not Phinehas the priest but a certain Levite of this name in this post; but since he is said to be in time past it may very well be understood of him: and it also is observed:

and the Lord was with him; inspiring him with zeal for his honour and glory assisting and strengthening him to do his will and work as particularly in the affair of Zimri Numbers 25:7 the Targum is "the Word of the Lord was for his help;'

this may be said for the encouragement of him that was in the same office now.

 

1 Chronicles 9:21  21 Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was keeper of the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

   YLT  21Zechariah son of Meshelemiah [is] gatekeeper at the opening of the tent of meeting.

And Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah .... Some think this refers to one that was in the times of David; but it seems rather to respect one that was after the Babylonish captivity see 1 Chronicles 26:1 though he and his brethren were in an office established in the times of David and the order of which was now as then observed:

was porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: who was the chief porter and kept the door; either that led into the outer court and kept out all unclean persons from entering there; or that which led into the court of the priests that none but priests might enter there.

 

1 Chronicles 9:22  22 All those chosen as gatekeepers were two hundred and twelve. They were recorded by their genealogy in their villages. David and Samuel the seer had appointed them to their trusted office.

   YLT  22All of those who are chosen for gatekeepers at the thresholds [are] two hundred and twelve; they [are] in their villages by their genealogy; they whom David and Samuel the seer appointed in their office.

All those that were chosen to be porters in the gates were two hundred and twelve .... As fixed in the days of David and might not be fewer:

these were reckoned by their genealogies in their villages; where they dwelt:

whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office; the scheme was first drawn by Samuel the prophet and communicated to David who put it into execution to be constantly and perpetually observed.

 

1 Chronicles 9:23  23 So they and their children were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord the house of the tabernacle by assignment.

   YLT  23And they and their sons [are] over the gates of the house of Jehovah even of the house of the tent by watches.

So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the Lord .... They that were appointed in David's time to watch the gates of the temple their posterity succeeded them in that office; for it was hereditary:

namely the house of the tabernacle by wards; that which was at Gibeon in David's time and now one was erected until the temple was built.

 

1 Chronicles 9:24  24 The gatekeepers were assigned to the four directions: the east west north and south.

   YLT  24At four sides are the gatekeepers east west north and south.

In four quarters were the porters .... For according to the Targum on 1 Chronicles 9:22 there were twenty four wards:

towards the east west north and south; and as the same paraphrase has it six wards to the east six to the west six to the north and six to the south.

 

1 Chronicles 9:25  25 And their brethren in their villages had to come with them from time to time for seven days.

   YLT  25And their brethren in their villages [are] to come in for seven days from time to time with these.

And their brethren which were in their villages .... Assigned them to dwell in:

were to come after seven days from time to time with them; there was a new course of them every week; the old ones went off of duty and another course succeeded which came out of the villages where they dwelt and the old course retired to theirs.

 

1 Chronicles 9:26  26 For in this trusted office were four chief gatekeepers; they were Levites. And they had charge over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.

   YLT  26For in office [are] the four chiefs of the gatekeepers they are Levites and they have been over the chambers and over the treasuries of the house of God

For these Levites the four chief porters were in their set office .... The four chief porters who were over all the two hundred and twelve and had one over them 1 Chronicles 9:17 these were never changed nor went into the country villages; but were always upon the spot and in their office superintending the rest:

and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God; see 1 Chronicles 26:20.

 

1 Chronicles 9:27  27 And they lodged all around the house of God because they had the responsibility and they were in charge of opening it every morning.

   YLT  27and round about the house of God they lodge for on them [is] the watch and they [are] over the opening even morning by morning.

And they lodged round about the house of God .... In chambers on the outward wall about it that they might be near to do their office:

because the charge was upon them; to guard the house:

and the opening thereof every morning pertained to them; that is the opening of the doors of the mountain of the house and the court of women; for as for others that appertained to the priests as Dr. LightfootF21Temple-Service c. 7. sect. 1. observes; under the second temple it is saidF23Misn. Shekalim c. 5. sect. 1. Ben Geber was over the shutting of the gates in the evening and so of opening in the morning.

 

1 Chronicles 9:28  28 Now some of them were in charge of the serving vessels for they brought them in and took them out by count.

   YLT  28And [some] of them [are] over the vessels of service for by number they bring them in and by number they take them out.

And certain of them had the charge of the ministering vessels that they should bring them in and out by tale. Which the priests used in sacrificing and which the Levites brought to them and returned again to their proper places.

 

1 Chronicles 9:29  29 Some of them were appointed over the furnishings and over all the implements of the sanctuary and over the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the incense and the spices.

   YLT  29And [some] of them are appointed over the vessels even over all the vessels of the sanctuary and over the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the frankincense and the spices.

Some of them also were appointed to oversee the vessels and all the instruments of the sanctuary .... They were committed to their care; they delivered them out on occasion and their business was to see that they were returned when they had done their use and service:

and the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the frankincense and the spices; which were used in meat offerings drink offerings &c. see 1 Chronicles 26:20 under the second temple Ahiah was over the libations or drink offeringsF24Ibid. (Misn. Shekalim c. 5. sect. 1.) .

 

1 Chronicles 9:30  30 And some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices.

   YLT  30And [some] of the sons of the priests are mixing the mixture for spices.

And some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices. For though the Levites had the care of the spices they might not make the ointment with them only the priests see Exodus 30:23.

 

1 Chronicles 9:31  31 Mattithiah of the Levites the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite had the trusted office over the things that were baked in the pans.

   YLT  31And Mattithiah of the Levites (he [is] the first-born to Shallum the Korahite) [is] in office over the work of the pans.

And Mattithiah one of the Levites who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite .... Of whom see 1 Chronicles 9:19

had the set office over the things that were made in the pans; the meat offerings that were made in pans; and so had the care of the fine flour oil and frankincense used in them which he delivered to the priests when necessary see Leviticus 2:5 the Septuagint version is "over the works of the sacrifice of the pan of the high priest;'as if it respected peculiarly his meat offering Leviticus 6:20 we read in the MisnahF25Menachot c. 11. sect. 3. & Tamid c. 1. sect. 3. of the offerings of the high priest as expressed by this word which it signifies and not pans but what was fried in themF26Vid. Sheringham. in Misn. Yoma c. 2. sect. 3. p. 16. ; and Ben Melech on the place says this man was an high priest who offered every day the tenth part of an ephah in a pan half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening according to Leviticus 6:20 but that cannot be for certain it is he was a Levite as the text expresses it.

 

1 Chronicles 9:32  32 And some of their brethren of the sons of the Kohathites were in charge of preparing the showbread for every Sabbath.

   YLT  32And of the sons of the Kohathite [some] of their brethren [are] over the bread of the arrangement to prepare [it] sabbath by sabbath.

And other of their brethren of the sons of the Kohathites were over the shewbread to prepare it every sabbath .... Twelve loaves of which were set every week before the ark upon the shewbread table and the old ones taken away: now the work of these Levites was to make this shewbread and get it ready every week to be set upon the table and which was done not by them but by priests; under the second temple the family of Garmu was set over this workF1Misn. Shekalim ut supra. (c. 5. sect. 1.) .

 

1 Chronicles 9:33  33 These are the singers heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites who lodged in the chambers and were free from other duties; for they were employed in that work day and night.

   YLT  33And these who sing heads of fathers of the Levites in the chambers [are] free for by day and by night [they are] over them in the work.

And these are the singers chief of the fathers of the Levites .... Others of them were employed in singing and were masters of the song and presided in that service see 1 Chronicles 6:31 who remaining

in the chambers were free; from all other work and service; and there they abode even in the chambers of the temple that they might be near to perform their work and not be defiled and made unfit for it:

for they were employed in that work day and night; some or other of them either in composing or singing psalms and hymns or teaching others how to sing them.

 

1 Chronicles 9:34  34 These heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites were heads throughout their generations. They dwelt at Jerusalem.

   YLT  34These heads of the fathers of the Levites throughout their generations [are] heads. These have dwelt in Jerusalem.

These chief fathers of the Levites were chief throughout their generations .... Even all before made mention of in this chapter:

these dwelt at Jerusalem; always resided there and did not in turns go into the country villages as the inferior Levites did; their office requiring them to be constantly there being chief of the porters singers &c. who had the superintendency and direction of the rest.

 

1 Chronicles 9:35  35 Jeiel the father of Gibeon whose wife’s name was Maacah dwelt at Gibeon.

   YLT  35And in Gibeon dwelt hath the father of Gibeon Jehiel and the name of his wife [is] Maachah;

Verses 35-44

And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon .... Whose name is here mentioned which is not in 1 Chronicles 8:29. Jehiel:

whose wife's name was Maachah; as there but here called his sister as a wife sometimes is Genesis 20:2. From hence to the end of the chapter is a repetition of the ancestors and posterity of Saul king of Israel; which is made to lead on to and connect the following history of the kings of Judah begun in this book and carried on in the next unto the Babylonish captivity see 1 Chronicles 8:29 and the notes there.

 

1 Chronicles 9:36  36 His firstborn son was Abdon then Zur Kish Baal Ner Nadab

   YLT  36and his son the first-born [is] Abdon and Zur and Kish and Baal and Ner and Nadab

 

1 Chronicles 9:37  37 Gedor Ahio Zechariah [a] and Mikloth.

   YLT  37and Gedor and Ahio and Zechariah and Mikloth.

 

1 Chronicles 9:38  38 And Mikloth begot Shimeam.[b] They also dwelt alongside their relatives in Jerusalem with their brethren.

   YLT  38And Mikloth begat Shimeam and they also over-against their brethren have dwelt in Jerusalem with their brethren.

 

1 Chronicles 9:39  39 Ner begot Kish Kish begot Saul and Saul begot Jonathan Malchishua Abinadab and Esh-Baal.

   YLT  39And Ner begat Kish and Kish begat Saul and Saul begat Jonathan and Malchi-Shua and Abinadab and Esh-Baal.

 

1 Chronicles 9:40  40 The son of Jonathan was Merib-Baal and Merib-Baal begot Micah.

   YLT  40And a son of Jonathan [is] Merib-Baal and Merib-Baal begat Micah.

 

1 Chronicles 9:41  41 The sons of Micah were Pithon Melech Tahrea [c] and Ahaz.[d]

   YLT  41And sons of Micah: Pithon and Melech and Tahrea

 

1 Chronicles 9:42  42 And Ahaz begot Jarah;[e] Jarah begot Alemeth Azmaveth and Zimri; and Zimri begot Moza;

   YLT  42and Ahaz -- he begat Jaarah and Jaarah begat Alemeth and Azmaveth and Zimri and Zimri begat Moza

 

1 Chronicles 9:43  43 Moza begot Binea Rephaiah[f] his son Eleasah his son and Azel his son.

   YLT  43and Moza begat Binea and Rephaiah [is] his son. Eleasah his son Azel his son.

 

1 Chronicles 9:44  44 And Azel had six sons whose names were these: Azrikam Bocheru Ishmael Sheariah Obadiah and Hanan; these were the sons of Azel.

  YLT  44And to Azel [are] six sons and these their names: Azrikam Bocheru and Ishmael and Sheariah and Obadiah and Hanan: these [are] sons of Azel.
