15. and Bakbakkar, Heresh, and Galal, and Mattaniah son of Micah, son of Zichri, son of Asaph;

17. And the gatekeepers [are] Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, and their brethren--Shallum [is] the head;

18. and hitherto they [are] at the gate of the king eastward; they [are] the gatekeepers for the companies of the sons of Levi.

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

20. and Phinehas son of Eleazar hath been leader over them formerly; Jehovah [is] with him.

21. Zechariah son of Meshelemiah [is] gatekeeper at the opening of the tent of meeting.

22. All of those who are chosen for gatekeepers at the thresholds [are] two hundred and twelve; they [are] in their villages, by their genealogy; they whom David and Samuel the seer appointed in their office.

23. And they and their sons [are] over the gates of the house of Jehovah, even of the house of the tent, by watches.

24. At four sides are the gatekeepers, east, west, north, and south.

25. And their brethren in their villages [are] to come in for seven days from time to time with these.

26. For in office [are] the four chiefs of the gatekeepers, they are Levites, and they have been over the chambers, and over the treasuries of the house of God,

27. and round about the house of God they lodge, for on them [is] the watch, and they [are] over the opening, even morning by morning.

28. And [some] of them [are] over the vessels of service, for by number they bring them in, and by number they take them out.

29. And [some] of them are appointed over the vessels, even over all the vessels of the sanctuary, and over the fine flour, and the wine, and the oil, and the frankincense, and the spices.
