Quick answer

David fathered Nogah, Nepheg, and Japhia in Jerusalem. It lists three more of David's sons.

Overview

These names continue the list of David's children born in Jerusalem, most of whom play no further role in the narrative. The Chronicler nonetheless preserves them as members of the royal house. Their inclusion reflects the care taken to record the whole family of the king of God's choosing.
