Concerning the divisions of the porters: Of the Korhites was Meshelemiah the son of Kore, of the sons of ¹ Asaph.

Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peulthai the eighth: for God ¹ blessed him.

Also unto Shemaiah his son were sons born, that ¹ ruled throughout the house of their father: for they were mighty men of valour.

All these of the sons of Obededom: they and their sons and their brethren, able men for ¹ strength for the service, were threescore and two of Obededom.

Among these were the divisions of the porters, even among the chief men, having wards one ¹ against another, to minister in the house of the LORD.

And the lot eastward fell to Shelemiah. Then for Zechariah his son, ¹ a wise counsellor, they cast lots; and his lot came out northward.

To Obededom southward; and to his sons the house of ¹ Asuppim.

To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward, with the gate ¹ Shallecheth, by the causeway of the going up, ward against ward.

Eastward were six Levites, northward four a day, southward four a day, and toward Asuppim ¹ two and two.

At ¹ Parbar westward, four at the causeway, and two at Parbar.

Of the ¹ Amramites, and the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites:

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 host, had ¹ dedicated.

Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons were for the outward business ¹ over Israel, for officers and judges.

And of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brethren, men of valour, a thousand and seven hundred, were officers among them of Israel on this side Jordan westward in all the business of the LORD, and in the service of ¹ the king.

And his brethren, men of valour, were two thousand and seven hundred chief fathers, whom king David made rulers over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to ¹ God, and affairs of the king.
