1So all Israel was recorded by genealogies; and behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel. And Judah was taken away into exile to Babylon for their unfaithfulness.
2Now the first who lived in their possessions in their cities were Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the temple servants.[#9:2 Heb Nethinim]
3And some of the sons of Judah, of the sons of Benjamin and of the sons of Ephraim and Manasseh lived in Jerusalem:
19Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his relatives of his father’s house, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the thresholds of the tent; and their fathers had been over the camp of Yahweh, keepers of the entrance.[#9:19 In Ex 6:24, Abiasaph]
20And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was ruler over them previously, and Yahweh was with him.
21Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper of the entrance of the tent of meeting.
22All these who were chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds were 212. These were recorded by genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer established in their office of trust.
23So they and their sons were over the gates of the house of Yahweh, even the house of the tent, as those who kept watch.
24The gatekeepers were on the four sides, to the east, west, north, and south.[#9:24 Lit to the four winds]
25And their relatives in their villages were to come in every seven days from time to time to be with them;[#9:25 Lit these]
26for the four chief gatekeepers who were Levites, were in an office of trust, and were over the chambers and over the treasuries in the house of God.
27And they spent the night all around the house of God, because the watch was committed to them; and they were over opening it morning by morning.[#9:27 Lit on them]
28Now some of them were over the utensils of service, for they counted them when they brought them in and when they took them out.[#9:28 Lit by count they brought them in and by count they took them out]
29Some of them also were appointed over the furniture and over all the utensils of the sanctuary and over the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the frankincense and the spices.
30Some of the sons of the priests prepared the mixing of the spices.
31And Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the office of trust over the things which were baked in pans.
32Some of their relatives of the sons of the Kohathites were over the showbread to prepare it every sabbath.
33Now these are the singers, heads of fathers’ households of the Levites, who lived in the chambers of the temple free from other service ; for they were over them in their work day and night.
34These were heads of fathers’ households of the Levites according to their generations, the heads who lived in Jerusalem.[#9:34 Lit these]
