Genesis 6:14-27 These
were the heads of the
families: The sons of Reuben, Israel''s firstborn, were
Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. These were the
families descended from
Reuben. The sons of Simeon were
Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman.
These were the families descended from Simeon. These
are the names of the sons of Levi listed in birth order: Gershon, Kohath, and
Merari. Levi lived 137 years. The sons
of Gershon listed by their families were Libni and Shimei. The sons of Kohath were Amram, Izhar, Hebron,
and Uzziel. Kohath lived 133 years. The
sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi. These were the families descended from
Levi listed in birth order. Amram
married his father''s sister Jochebed. She gave birth to Aaron and Moses. Amram
lived 137 years. The sons of Izhar
were Korah, Nepheg, and Zichri. The
sons of Uzziel were Mishael, Elzaphan, and Sithri. Aaron
married Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab and sister of Nahshon. She gave birth
to Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. The
sons of Korah were Assir, Elkanah, and Abiasaph. These were the families
descended from Korah. Eleazar, son of
Aaron, married one of the daughters of Putiel. She gave birth to Phinehas.
These were the heads of Levite households listed by their families. This was the same Aaron and Moses to whom the
Lord said, "Bring the Israelites out of Egypt in organized family
groups." They--this same Moses
and Aaron--told Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave Egypt.
