1 Chronicles 25

1And David and the commanders of the army set apart for the service the sons of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun, who prophesied with lyres, harps, and cymbals; and their number, the men for the work of their service, was:

2Of the sons of Asaph: Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Asharelah, sons of Asaph, under the direction of Asaph, who prophesied under the direction of the king.

3Of Jeduthun: the sons of Jeduthun—Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six—under the direction of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with the lyre in giving thanks and praise to Yahweh.
