Chief Officers of the Tribes

16 Now those over the tribes of Israel:

chief officer for the Reubenites was Eliezer the son of Zichri;

for the Simeonites, Shephatiah the son of Maacah;

for Levi, Hashabiah the son of Kemuel;

for Aaron, Zadok;

for Judah, Elihu, one of David’s brothers;

for Issachar, Omri the son of Michael;

for Zebulun, Ishmaiah the son of Obadiah;

for Naphtali, Jeremoth the son of Azriel;

for the sons of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Azaziah;

for the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joel the son of Pedaiah;

for the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zechariah;

for Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner;

for Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham.

These were the princes of the tribes of Israel.

23 But David did not take up a count of those twenty years of age and under, because Yahweh had said He would multiply Israel as the stars of heaven. 24 Joab the son of Zeruiah had begun to number them, but did not finish; and because of this, wrath came upon Israel, and this count was not included in the total count of the chronicles of King David.
