1 Chronicles 26:7

The Divisions of the Gatekeepers

6Also to his son Shemaiah were born sons who ruled over their families because they were strong, capable men.7Shemaiah’s sons were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad; his brothers were Elihu and Semachiah, also capable men.8All these were descendants of Obed-edom; they and their sons and brothers were capable men with strength to do the work—62 in all from Obed-edom.
