1 Chronicles 26:7-24
-
7 The sons of Shemaiah; Othni, and Rephael, and Obed, Elzabad, whose brethren were strong men, Elihu, and Semachiah.
-
8 All these of the sons of Obededom: they and their sons and their brethren, able men for strength for the service, were threescore and two of Obededom.
-
9 And Meshelemiah had sons and brethren, strong men, eighteen.
-
10 Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons; Simri the chief, (for though he was not the firstborn, yet his father made him the chief;)
-
11 Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, Zechariah the fourth: all the sons and brethren of Hosah were thirteen.
-
12 Among these were the divisions of the porters, even among the chief men, having wards one against another, to minister in the house of the LORD.
-
13 And they cast lots, as well the small as the great, according to the house of their fathers, for every gate.
-
14 And the lot eastward fell to Shelemiah. Then for Zechariah his son, a wise counsellor, they cast lots; and his lot came out northward.
-
15 To Obededom southward; and to his sons the house of Asuppim.
-
16 To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward, with the gate Shallecheth, by the causeway of the going up, ward against ward.
-
17 Eastward were six Levites, northward four a day, southward four a day, and toward Asuppim two and two.
-
18 At Parbar westward, four at the causeway, and two at Parbar.
-
19 These are the divisions of the porters among the sons of Kore, and among the sons of Merari.
-
20 And of the Levites, Ahijah was over the treasures of the house of God, and over the treasures of the dedicated things.
-
21 As concerning the sons of Laadan; the sons of the Gershonite Laadan, chief fathers, even of Laadan the Gershonite, were Jehieli.
-
22 The sons of Jehieli; Zetham, and Joel his brother, which were over the treasures of the house of the LORD.
-
23 Of the Amramites, and the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites:
-
24 And Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was ruler of the treasures.
