These are the divisions of the gatekeepers: From the Korahites, there was Meshelemiah son of Kore, of the family of Abiasaph.The sons of Meshelemiah were Zechariah( the oldest), Jediael( the second), Zebadiah( the third), Jathniel( the fourth),Elam( the fifth), Jehohanan( the sixth), and Eliehoenai( the seventh).The sons of Obed edom, also gatekeepers, were Shemaiah( the oldest), Jehozabad( the second), Joah( the third), Sacar( the fourth), Nethanel( the fifth),Ammiel( the sixth), Issachar( the seventh), and Peullethai( the eighth). God had richly blessed Obed edom.Obed edom’s son Shemaiah had sons with great ability who earned positions of great authority in the clan.Their names were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad. Their relatives, Elihu and Semakiah, were also very capable men.All of these descendants of Obed edom, including their sons and grandsons— sixty two of them in all— were very capable men, well qualified for their work.Meshelemiah’s eighteen sons and relatives were also very capable men.Hosah, of the Merari clan, appointed Shimri as the leader among his sons, though he was not the oldest.His other sons included Hilkiah( the second), Tebaliah( the third), and Zechariah( the fourth). Hosah’s sons and relatives, who served as gatekeepers, numbered thirteen in all.These divisions of the gatekeepers were named for their family leaders, and like the other Levites, they served at the house of the Lord.They were assigned by families for guard duty at the various gates, without regard to age or training, for it was all decided by means of sacred lots.The responsibility for the east gate went to Meshelemiah and his group. The north gate was assigned to his son Zechariah, a man of unusual wisdom.The south gate went to Obed edom, and his sons were put in charge of the storehouse.Shuppim and Hosah were assigned the west gate and the gateway leading up to the Temple.

He was the chief officer of the treasuries.His relatives through Eliezer were Rehabiah, Jeshaiah, Joram, Zicri, and Shelomoth.Shelomoth and his relatives were in charge of the treasuries containing the gifts that King David, the family leaders, and the generals and captains and other officers of the army had dedicated to the Lord.These men dedicated some of the plunder they had gained in battle to maintain the house of the Lord.Shelomoth and his relatives also cared for the gifts dedicated to the Lord by Samuel the seer, Saul son of Kish, Abner son of Ner, and Joab son of Zeruiah. All the other dedicated gifts were in their care, too.From the clan of Izhar came Kenaniah.
