16 Furthermore, over the tribes of Yashar'AL: the officer over the Raubanites was Aliazar the son of Zichri; over the Simaunites, Shaphatyahu the son of Maachah; 

17 over the Lauym, Hashabyahu the son of Kamual; over the Aarunites, Zaduk; 

18 over Yahudah, Alihu, one of Daud’s brothers; over Issachar, Umri the son of Michaal; 

19 over Zabulun, Ishmayahu the son of Ubadyahu; over Naphtali, Yarimuth the son of Azrial; 

20 over the children of Aphraim, Husha the son of Azazyahu; over the half-tribe of Manassah, Yual the son of Padayahu; 

21 over the half-tribe of Manassah in Gilaad, Iddu the son of Zacharyahu; over Banyamin, Yaasial the son of Abnar; 

22 over Dan, Azaral the son of Yaruham. These were the leaders of the tribes of Yashar'AL.

23 But Daud did not take the number of those twenty years old and under, because  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH had said He would multiply Yashar'AL like the stars of the Shamaym. 

24 Yuab the son of Zaruyahu began a census, but he did not finish, for wrath came upon Yashar'AL because of this census; nor was the number recorded in the account of the chronicles of King Daud.
