1 Chronicles 26:12-22
– These divisions of the
gatekeepers, corresponding to their chief men, had duties, just as their
brothers did, ministering in the house of the Lord. And they cast lots by
fathers' houses, small and great alike, for their gates. The lot for the east fell
to Shelemiah. They cast lots also for his son Zechariah, a shrewd counselor,
and his lot came out for the north. Obed-edom's came out for
the south, and to his sons was allotted the gatehouse. For Shuppim and Hosah it came out for the west, at the
gate of Shallecheth on the road that goes up. Watch corresponded to watch. On the east there were six
each day, on the north four each day, on the south four each day, as
well as two and two at the gatehouse. And for the colonnade on the west there were four at the road
and two at the colonnade. These were the divisions
of the gatekeepers among the Korahites and the sons of Merari. And of
the Levites, Ahijah had charge of the treasuries of the house of God and the
treasuries of the dedicated gifts. The sons of Ladan, the
sons of the Gershonites belonging to Ladan, the heads of the fathers' houses
belonging to Ladan the Gershonite:Jehieli. The sons of Jehieli, Zetham, and
Joel his brother, were in charge of the treasuries of the house of the Lord.
