1 Chronicles 23:7

LaadanShimei

5 4,000 are to be gatekeepers, and 4,000 are to praise the LORD with the instruments I have made for giving praise.”

6 Then David divided the Levites into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershom, Kohath, and Merari.

The Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.

8 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the first, Zetham, and Joel—three in all.

9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran—three in all. These were the heads of the families of Ladan.
