18 And before they [were] at the king's gate eastward, they [were] gatekeepers in the companies of the sons of Levi.

22 All these chosen for gatekeepers in the gates [were] two hundred and twelve. These by their genealogies, in their villages, [were] the ones David and Samuel the seer ordained in their set office.
23 So they and their sons [were] over the gates of the house of the LORD, the house of the tabernacle, by watches.
24 The gatekeepers [were] to the four quarters, toward the east, west, north, and south.
25 And their brothers in their villages, [were] to come in for seven days from time to time with them.
26 For they [were] in faithfulness, the four chief gatekeepers; they [were] Levites, and were over the rooms, and over the treasuries of the house of God.
27 And they lived around the house of God, because the duty [was] on them. And they [were] to open it morning by morning.
28 And [certain] of them [were] over the ministering vessels, that they should bring them in and out by count.
