Chapter 25 Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of
the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Juduthun, who should prophesy with
harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals.
And the number of the workmen according to their service was Of the sons of Asaph,
Zachar, and Joseph, and Nethaniah, and Azarila, the sons of Asaph under the
hands of Asaph, which prophesied according to the order of the king.
Of Juduthun, the sons of Juduthun, Gedaliah, and Zeriah, and Jeshea,
Hashebiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Juduthun,

All these were the sons of Heman, the king's seer in the words of God,
to lift up the horn.
And God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
All these were under the hands of their father, for song in the house of the Lord
was cymbals, psalteries, and harps for the service of the house of God, according to
