1 Chronicles 26:12-19

12These divisions of the gatekeepers, corresponding to their leaders, had assigned responsibilities, like their relatives, as they served in the Lord’s temple.

13They cast lots, both young and old, according to their families, to determine which gate they would be responsible for.

14The lot for the east gate went to Shelemiah. They then cast lots for his son Zechariah, a wise adviser, and the lot for the north gate went to him.

15Obed-Edom was assigned the south gate, and his sons were assigned the storehouses.

16Shuppim and Hosah were assigned the west gate, along with the Shalleketh gate on the upper road. One guard was adjacent to another.

17Each day there were six Levites posted on the east, four on the north, and four on the south. At the storehouses they were posted in pairs.

18At the court on the west there were four posted on the road and two at the court.

19These were the divisions of the gatekeepers who were descendants of Korah and Merari.
