The Divisions of the Gatekeepers

The Divisions of the Gatekeepers

26As for the working groups of the gatekeepers: of the Korahites, Meshelemiah the son of Kore, from the sons of Asaph. 2And Meshelemiah had sons: Zechariah the firstborn, Jediael the second, Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth, 3Elam the fifth, Jehohana the sixth, Eliehoenai the seventh. 4And Obed-Edom had sons: Shemaiah the firstborn, Jehozabad the second, Joah the third, Sachar the fourth, Nethanel the fifth, 5Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peullethai the eighth; for God blessed him. 6And to Shemaiah his son were sons born who were rulers in the house of their father, for they were mighty warriors of ability. 7The sons of Shemaiah: Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad, whose brothers were sons of ability, Elihu and Semakiah. 8All these from the sons of Obed-Edom, they and their sons, and their brothers were men of ability with strength for service; sixty-two of Obed-Edom. 9And Meshelemiah had sons and brothers, sons of ability, eighteen. 10And Hosah, from the sons of Merari, had sons: Shimri the chief (though he was not firstborn, his father appointed him as chief), 11Hilkiah the second, Tabaliah the third, Zechariah the fourth: all the sons and brothers of Hosah were thirteen.

12These working groups of gatekeepers, corresponding to the chief men, had responsibilities like their brothers to serve in the house of Yahweh. 13And they cast lots, small and great alike, by their fathers’ houses, ⌊for their gates⌋.[fn] 14And the lot fell to the east to Shelemiah. As for Zechariah his son, ⌊a wise counselor⌋,[fn] they cast lots. And his lot came out for the north. 15To Obed-Edom went out the south, and to his sons, the storehouses. 16For Shuppim and Hosah it went out for the west, at the gate of Shalleketh, on the road that goes up, guard for guard. 17To the east, six Levites; to the north, four daily; to the south, four daily; and at the storerooms, two by two. 18For the court to the west, four at the road, two at the court. 19These were the working groups of the gatekeepers among the sons of the Korahites and among the sons of Merari.
