They were enrolled by genealogies in their villages. ^fDavid and Samuel ^gthe seer established them in their office of trust. 23So they and their sons were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord, that is, the house of the tent, as guards. 24The gatekeepers were on the four sides, east, west, north, and south. 25And their kinsmen who were ^hin their villages were obligated to come ⁱin every seven days, in turn, to be with these, 26for the four chief gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted to be over ^jthe chambers and the treasures of the house of God. 27And they lodged around the house of God, for on them lay the duty of watching, and ^kthey had charge of opening it every morning.
