10 Des fils de Merari: Hosa, qui avait pour fils: Schimri, le chef, établi chef par son père, quoiqu’il ne fût pas le premier-né,

11 Hilkija le second, Thebalia le troisième, Zacharie le quatrième. Tous les fils et les frères de Hosa étaient au nombre de treize.

12 A ces classes de portiers, aux chefs de ces hommes et à leurs frères, fut remise la garde pour le service de la maison de l’Éternel.
