1 Chronicles 9:24-26

New International Reader's Version

²⁴ The men who guarded the gates were on the four sides of the tent. They were on the east, west, north and south sides. ²⁵ From time to time, their relatives in their villages had to come to help them. They had to share their duties for a week at a time. ²⁶ But the four main men who guarded the gates were Levites. They were trusted with the duty of taking care of the storerooms and the other rooms in the house of God.
