17. And the doorkeepers: Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, and their brethren; Shallum was the chief.

18. And they have been hitherto in the king's gate eastward: they were the doorkeepers in the camps of the children of Levi.

19. And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, of the house of his father, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the thresholds of the tent, and their fathers, set over the camp of Jehovah, were keepers of the entrance.

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

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

22. All 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.

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

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

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

26. For 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 God

27. for they stayed round about the house of God during the night, because the charge was upon them, and the opening thereof every morning pertained to them.
