21. And over the half tribe of Manasses: in Galaad, Jaddo the son of Zacharias: and over Benjamin, Jasiel the son of Abner.

22. And over Dan, Ezrihel the son of Jeroham: these were the princes of the children of Israel.

23. But David would not number them from twenty years old and under: because the Lord had said that he would multiply Israel like the stars of heaven.

24. Joab the son of Sarvia began to number, but he finished not: because upon this there fell wrath upon Israel: and therefore the number of them that were numbered, was not registered in the chronicles of king David.

26. And over the tillage, and the husbandmen, who tilled the ground, was Ezri the son of Chelub:

27. And over the dressers of the vineyards, was Semeias a Romathite: and over the wine cellars, Zabdias an Aphonite.

28. And over the oliveyards and the fig groves, which were in the plains, was Balanam a Gederite: and over the oil cellars, Joas.

30. And over the camels, Ubil an Ishmahelite: and over the asses, Jadias a Meronathite:

31. And over the sheep Jazia an Agarene. All these were the rulers of the substance of king David.

32. And Jonathan David's uncle, a counsellor, a wise and learned man: he and Jahiel the son of Hachamoni were with the king's sons.

33. And Achitophel was the king's counsellor, and Chusai the Arachite, the king's friend.
