5And he commandedH6680 them sayingH559, This is the thingH1697 which ye shall do: a thirdH7992 part of you, that comeH935 in on the sabbathH7676, shall be keepersH8104 of the watchH8104 of the king's houseH1004;

6and a thirdH7992 partH7992 shall be at the gateH8179 of Sur; and a thirdH7992 partH7992 at the gateH8179 behind the couriersH7323; and ye shall keepH8104 the watchH8104 of the houseH1004 for a defence.

7And the twoH8147 parts of you, all those that goH3318 forthH3318 on the sabbathH7676, even they shall keepH8104 the watchH8104 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah about the kingH4428.

8And ye shall encompass the kingH4428 roundH5439 about, every manH376 with his weaponsH3627 in his handH3027; and he that comesH935 within the ranksH7713 shall beH1961 putH4191 to deathH4191; and ye shall beH1961 with the kingH4428 when he goesH3318 out and when he comesH935 in.

9And the captains of the hundredsH3967 did according to all that JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 commandedH6680; and they tookH3947 every manH376 his menH376, those that were to comeH935 in on the sabbathH7676, with them that were to goH3318 forthH3318 on the sabbathH7676, and they cameH935 to JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548.

10And the priestH3548 gaveH5414 to the captains of the hundredsH3967 kingH4428 David's spearsH2595 and shieldsH7982 which were in the houseH1004 of Jehovah.
