26:1 As
for
the
divisions
of
the
gatekeepers:
of
the
Korahites,
Meshelemiah
the
son
of

of
the

of
Asaph.
26:2 And
Meshelemiah
had

Nethanel
the

26:5 Ammiel

for

blessed
him.
26:6 Also
to
his
son
Shemaiah
were
sons
born
who
were
rulers
in
their
fathers'
houses,
for
they
were
men
of
great
ability.
26:7 The
sons
of
Shemaiah:
Othni,
Rephael,
Obed
and
Elzabad,
whose
brothers
were
able
men,
Elihu
and
Semachiah.
26:8 All
these
were
of
the
sons
of
Obed-edom
with
their
sons
and
brothers,
able
men
qualified
for
the
service;

26:9 And

able
men,
eighteen.
26:10 And
Hosah,
of
the

made
him
chief),
26:11 Hilkiah
the
second,
Tebaliah
the
third,
Zechariah
the
fourth:
all
the
sons
and
brothers
of
Hosah
were

26:12 These
divisions
of
the
gatekeepers,
corresponding
to
their
chief
men,
had
duties,
just
as
their
brothers
did,
ministering
in
the
house
of
the
LORD.
26:13 And
they
cast
lots
by
fathers'
houses,
small
and
great
alike,
for
their
gates.
26:14 The
lot
for
the
east
fell
to
Shelemiah.
They
cast
lots
also
for
his
son
Zechariah,
a
shrewd
counselor,
and
his
lot
came
out
for
the
north.
26:15 Obed-edom's
came
out
for
the
south,
and
to
his
sons
was
allotted
the
gatehouse.
26:16 For
Shuppim
and
Hosah
it
came
out
for
the
west,
at
the
gate
of
Shallecheth
on
the
road
that
goes
up.
Watch
corresponded
to
watch.
26:17 On
the
east
there
were
six
each
day,
on
the
north
four
each
day,
on
the
south
four
each
day,
as
well
as
two
and
two
at
the
gatehouse.
26:18 And
for
the
colonnade
on
the
west
there
were
four
at
the
road
and
two
at
the
colonnade.
26:19 These
were
the
divisions
of
the
gatekeepers
among
the
Korahites
and
the
sons
of
Merari.
26:20 And
of
the
Levites,
Ahijah
had
charge
of
the
treasuries
of
the
house
of
God
and
the
treasuries
of
the
dedicated
gifts.
26:21 The
sons
of
Ladan,
the
sons
of
the
Gershonites
belonging
to
Ladan,
the
heads
of
the
fathers'
houses
belonging
to
Ladan
the
Gershonite:
Jehieli.
26:22 The
sons
of
Jehieli,
Zetham,
and
Joel
his
brother,
were
in
charge
of
the
treasuries
of
the
house
of
the
LORD.
26:23 Of
the
Amramites,
the
Izharites,
the
Hebronites,
and
the
Uzzielites--
26:24 and
Shebuel
the
son
of
Gershom,
son
of
Moses,
was
chief
officer
in
charge
of
the
treasuries.
26:25 His
brothers:
from
Eliezer
were
his
son
Rehabiah,
and
his
son
Jeshaiah,
and
his
son
Joram,
and
his
son
Zichri,
and
his
son
Shelomoth.
26:26 This
Shelomoth
and
his
brothers
were
in
charge
of
all
the
treasuries
of
the
dedicated
gifts
that
David
the
king
and
the
heads
of
the
fathers'
houses
and
the
officers
of
the
thousands
and
the
hundreds
and
the
commanders
of
the
army
had
dedicated.
26:27 From
spoil
won
in
battles
they
dedicated
gifts
for
the
maintenance
of
the
house
of
the
LORD.
26:28 Also
all
that
Samuel
the
seer
and
Saul
the
son
of
Kish
and
Abner
the
son
of
Ner
and
Joab
the
son
of
Zeruiah
had
dedicated--all
dedicated
gifts
were
in
the
care
of
Shelomoth
and
his
brothers.
26:29 Of
the
Izharites,
Chenaniah
and
his

were
appointed
to
external

for
Israel,
as
officers
and
judges.
26:30 Of
the
Hebronites,
Hashabiah
and
his
brothers,
1,700
men
of
ability,
had
the
oversight
of
Israel
westward
of
the
Jordan
for
all
the
work
of
the
LORD
and
for
the
service
of
the
king.
26:31 Of
the
Hebronites,
Jerijah
was
chief
of
the
Hebronites
of
whatever
genealogy
or
fathers'
houses.
(In
the
fortieth
year
of
David's
reign
search
was
made
and
men
of
great
ability
among
them
were
found
at
Jazer
in
Gilead.)
26:32 King
David
appointed
him
and
his
brothers,
2,700
men
of
ability,
heads
of
fathers'
houses,
to
have
the
oversight
of
the
Reubenites,
the
Gadites
and
the
half-tribe
of
the
Manassites
for
everything
pertaining
to
God
and
for
the
affairs
of
the
king.
