20. And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them in time past, and the LORD was with him.
21. And Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
22. All these who were chosen to be gatekeepers in the gates were two hundred and twelve. These were recorded by their genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their office of trust.
23. So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, namely, the house of the tabernacle, as guards.
24. In four quarters were the gatekeepers, toward the east, west, north, and south.
25. And their brethren, who were in their villages, were to come after seven days from time to time with them.
26. For these Levites, the four chief gatekeepers, were in their office of trust, and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.
