He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.

So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.

And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.

And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.

Eleazar begat Phinehas, Phinehas begat Abishua,

And Uzzi begat Zerahiah, and Zerahiah begat Meraioth,

And Ahitub begat Zadok, and Zadok begat Ahimaaz,

And Johanan begat Azariah, (he it is that executed the priest's office in the temple that Solomon built in Jerusalem:)

And Ahitub begat Zadok, and Zadok begat Shallum,

And Azariah begat Seraiah, and Seraiah begat Jehozadak,

And these are the sons of Aaron; Eleazar his son, Phinehas his son, Abishua his son,

Meraioth his son, Amariah his son, Ahitub his son,

And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.

Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
