1 Chronicles 9:14-26

14And of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari;

15and Bakbakkar, Heresh, and Galal; and Mattaniah the son of Micah, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph;

16and Obadiah the son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah the son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who dwelt in the villages of the Netophathites.

20And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them formerly; Jehovah was with him.

21Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was doorkeeper at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

22All these chosen to be doorkeepers at the thresholds were two hundred and twelve. These were registered by genealogy according to their villages: David and Samuel the seer had instituted them in their trust.

23And they and their sons were at the gates of the house of Jehovah, the house of the tent, to keep watch there.

24At the four quarters were the doorkeepers, toward the east, west, north, and south.

25And their brethren, in their villages, were to come after [every] seven days from time to time with them.

26For in their trust these four were the chief doorkeepers: they were Levites; and they were over the chambers and over the treasuries of the house of 1God;
