I Chronicles Chapter 26
1 Concerning the divisions of the
porters, of the Korahites, Meshelemiah
the son of Kore of the sons of Asaph.
2 And the sons of Meshelemiah,
Zechariah the eldest, Jediael the second,
Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth,
3 Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, and
Eliehoenai the seventh. 4 And the sons
of Obed Edom, Shemaiah the eldest,
Jehozabad the second, Joah the third,
and Sacar the fourth, and Nethanel the
fifth,
5 Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh,
Peulthai the eighth: for God had blessed
him.
6 And to Shemaiah his son, were sons
born, that ruled in the house of their
father, for they were men of might.
7 The sons of Shemaiah were Othni, and
Rephael, and Obed, Elzabad and his
brethren, strong men: Elihu also, and
Semachiah. 8 All these were of the sons
of Obed Edom, they and their sons and
their brethren mighty and strong to serve,
even threescore and two of Obed Edom.
9 And of Meshelemiah sons and
brethren, eighteen mighty men.
10 And of Hosah of the sons of Merari,
the sons were Shuri the chief, and
(though he was not the eldest, yet his
father made him the chief) 11 Helkiah
the second, Tebaliah the third, and
Zechariah the fourth: all the sons and the
brethren of Hosah were thirteen.
12 Of these were the divisions of the
porters of the chief men, having the
charge against their brethren, to serve in
the house of the Lord. 13 And they cast
lots both small and great for the house of
their fathers, for every gate.
14 And the lot on the east side fell to
Shelemiah: then they cast lots for
Zechariah his son a wise counselor, and
his lot came out northward: 15 To Obed
Edom southward, and to his sons the
house of Asuppim: 16 To Shuppim and
to Hosah westward with the gate of
Shallecheth by the paved street that
goeth upward, ward over against ward.
17 Eastward were six Levites, and
northward four a day, and southward
four a day, and toward Asuppim two
and two.
18 In Parbar toward the west were four
by the paved street, and two in Parbar.
19 These are the divisions of the porters
of the sons of Kore, and of the sons of
Merari.
20 And of the Levites. Ahijah was over
the treasures of the house of God, and
over the treasures of the dedicated
things.
21 Of the sons of Laadan the sons of the
Gershonites descending of Laadan, the
chief fathers of Laadan were Gershon
and Jehieli. 22 The sons of Jehieli were
Zethan and Joel his brother, appointed
over the treasures of the house of the
Lord.
23 Of the Amramites, of the Izharites, of
the Hebronites and of the Uzzielites. 24
And Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son
of Moses, a ruler over the treasures.
25 And of his brethren which came of
Eliezer, was Rehabiah his son, and
Jeshaiah his son, and Joram his son, and
Zichri his son, and Shelomith his son.
26 Which Shelomith and his brethren
were over all the treasures of the
dedicated things, which David the king,
and the chief fathers, the captains over
thousands, and hundreds, and the
captains of the army had dedicated. 27
(For of the battles and of the spoils they
did dedicate to maintain the house of the
Lord)
28 And all that Samuel the seer had
dedicated and Saul the son of Kish and
Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son
of Zeruiah, and whosoever had dedicate
anything, it was under the hand of
Shelomith, and his brethren. 29 Of the
Izharites was Chenaniah and his sons,
for the business without over Israel, for
officers and for Judges.
30 Of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his
brethren, men of activity, a thousand, and
seven hundred were officers for Israel
beyond Jordan westward, in all the
business of the Lord, and for the service
of the king. 31 Among the Hebronites
was Jeriah the chiefest, even the
Hebronites by his generations according
to the families. And in the fortieth year
of the reign of David they were sought
for: and there were found among them
men of activity at Jazer in Gilead.
32 And his brethren men of activity, two
thousand and seven hundred chief
fathers, whom king David made rulers
over the Reubenites, and the Gadites,
and the half tribe of Manasseh, for every
matter pertaining to God, and for the
king's business.
