1 Chronicles 24:31--25:1

25:1 David and the army officers selected some of the sons of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun to prophesy as they played stringed instruments and cymbals. 2 The following men were assigned this responsibility: 3
1 tn Heb “the fathers [i.e., families] of the head [i.e., oldest] just like his youngest brother.”
2 tn Heb “David and the officers of the army set apart for service the sons of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the ones prophesying by harps, by lyres, and by cymbals.”
3 tn Heb “and their number was, the men of work for their service.”
