21Zechariah son of Meshelemiah [is] gatekeeper at the opening of the tent of meeting.
22All 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.
23And they and their sons [are] over the gates of the house of Jehovah, even of the house of the tent, by watches.
24At four sides are the gatekeepers, east, west, north, and south.
25And their brethren in their villages [are] to come in for seven days from time to time with these.
26For 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,
27and round about the house of God they lodge, for on them [is] the watch, and they [are] over the opening, even morning by morning.
