22 All those chosen as gatekeepers were two hundred and twelve. aThey were recorded by their genealogy, in their villages. David and Samuel bthe seer had appointed them to their trusted office.
23 So they and their children were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord, the house of the tabernacle, by assignment.
24 The gatekeepers were assigned to the four directions: the east, west, north, and south.
25 And their brethren in their villages had to come with them from time to time afor seven days.
26 For in this trusted office were four chief gatekeepers; they were Levites. And they had charge over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.
