Shimri [1]

shim´rı̄ ( שׁמרי , shimrı̄  ; various forms in the Septuagint): There are four Hebrews mentioned in the Bible who bear this name:

(1) A S imeonite, a son of Shemaiah and father of Jedaiah, a chief of his tribe ( 1 Chronicles 4:37 ).

(2) The father of Jediael, a bodyguard of King David ( 1 Chronicles 11:45 ).
