Expanded Bible

¹² These were the leaders of the ·groups [divisions; orders] of gatekeepers, and they served in the ·Temple [^Lhouse] of the Lord, as did their ·relatives [brothers]. ¹³ By throwing lots, each ·family [clan] chose a gate to guard. ·Young [Small] and ·old [great] threw lots.

¹⁴ ·Meshelemiah [or Shelemiah; v. 2] was chosen by lot to guard the East Gate. Then lots were ·thrown [cast] for Meshelemiah’s son Zechariah. He was a ·wise counselor [prudent advisor] and was chosen for the North Gate.
