These were reckoned by their genealogy{H3187}{(H8692)} in their villages{H2691}, whom{H1992} David{H1732} and Samuel{H8050} the seer{H7200}{(H8802)} did ordain{H3245}{(H8765)} in their set office{H530}. 23 So they and their children{H1121} had the oversight of the gates{H8179} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, namely, the house{H1004} of the tabernacle{H168}, by wards{H4931}. 24 In four{H702} quarters{H7307} were the porters{H7778}, toward the east{H4217}, west{H3220}, north{H6828}, and south{H5045}. 25 And their brethren{H251}, which were in their villages{H2691}, were to come{H935}{(H8800)} after seven{H7651} days{H3117} from time{H6256} to time{H6256} with them. 26 For these Levites{H3881}, the four{H702} chief{H1368} porters{H7778}, were in their set office{H530}, and were over the chambers{H3957} and treasuries{H214} of the house{H1004} of God{H430}. 27 And they lodged{H3885}{(H8799)} round about{H5439} the house{H1004} of God{H430}, because the charge{H4931} was upon them, and the opening{H4668} thereof every morning{H1242} pertained to them. 28 And certain of them had the charge of{H5921} the ministering{H5656} vessels{H3627}, that they should bring them in{H935}{(H8686)} and out{H3318}{(H8686)} by tale{H4557}{H4557}. 29 Some of them also were appointed{H4487}{(H8794)} to oversee the vessels{H3627}, and all the instruments{H3627} of the sanctuary{H6944}, and the fine flour{H5560}, and the wine{H3196}, and the oil{H8081}, and the frankincense{H3828}, and the spices{H1314}. 30 And some of the sons{H1121} of the priests{H3548} made{H7543}{(H8802)} the ointment{H4842} of the spices{H1314}. 31 And Mattithiah{H4993}, one of the Levites{H3881}, who was the firstborn{H1060} of Shallum{H7967} the Korahite{H7145}, had the set office{H530} over the things that were made{H4639} in the pans{H2281}. 32 And other of their brethren{H251}, of the sons{H1121} of the Kohathites{H6956}, were over the shewbread{H3899}{H4635}, to prepare{H3559}{(H8687)} it every sabbath{H7676}. 33 And these are the singers{H7891}{(H8789)}, chief{H7218} of the fathers{H1} of the Levites{H3881}, who remaining in the chambers{H3957} were free{H6362}{(H8803)}{(H8675)}{H6359}: for they were employed in that work{H4399} day{H3119} and night{H3915}. 34 These chief{H7218} fathers{H1} of the Levites{H3881} were chief{H7218} throughout their generations{H8435}; these dwelt{H3427}{(H8804)} at Jerusalem{H3389}. 35 And in Gibeon{H1391} dwelt{H3427}{(H8804)} the father{H1} of Gibeon{H1391}{(H8677)}{H25}, Jehiel{H3273}, whose wife's{H802} name{H8034} was Maachah{H4601}: 36 And his firstborn{H1060} son{H1121} Abdon{H5658}, then Zur{H6698}, and Kish{H7027}, and Baal{H1168}, and Ner{H5369}, and Nadab{H5070}, 37 And Gedor{H1446}, and Ahio{H283}, and Zechariah{H2148}, and Mikloth{H4732}. 38 And Mikloth{H4732} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Shimeam{H8043}. And they also dwelt{H3427}{(H8804)} with their brethren{H251} at Jerusalem{H3389}, over against their brethren{H251}. 39 And Ner{H5369} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Kish{H7027}; and Kish{H7027} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Saul{H7586}; and Saul{H7586} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Jonathan{H3083}, and Malchishua{H4444}, and Abinadab{H41}, and Eshbaal{H792}. 40 And the son{H1121} of Jonathan{H3083} was Meribbaal{H4807}: and Meribbaal{H4810} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Micah{H4318}. 41 And the sons{H1121} of Micah{H4318} were, Pithon{H6377}, and Melech{H4429}, and Tahrea{H8475}, and Ahaz. 42 And Ahaz{H271} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Jarah{H3294}; and Jarah{H3294} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Alemeth{H5964}, and Azmaveth{H5820}, and Zimri{H2174}; and Zimri{H2174} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Moza{H4162}; 43 And Moza{H4162} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Binea{H1150}; and Rephaiah{H7509} his son{H1121}, Eleasah{H501} his son{H1121}, Azel{H682} his son{H1121}. 44 And Azel{H682} had six{H8337} sons{H1121}, whose names{H8034} are these, Azrikam{H5840}, Bocheru{H1074}, and Ishmael{H3458}, and Sheariah{H8187}, and Obadiah{H5662}, and Hanan{H2605}: these were the sons{H1121} of Azel{H682}.
