1 Chronicles 9:25-29 Good News Bible (GNB)

25. These guards were assisted by their relatives, who lived in the villages and who had to take turns at guard duty for seven days at a time.

26. The four chief guards were Levites and had the final responsibility. They were also responsible for the rooms in the Temple and for the supplies kept there.

27. They lived near the Temple, because it was their duty to guard it and to open the gates every morning.

28. Other Levites were responsible for the utensils used in worship. They checked them out and checked them back in every time they were used.

29. Others were in charge of the other sacred equipment, and of the flour, wine, olive oil, incense, and spices.
