13 And they cast lots by fathers’ houses, small and great alike, for every gate.
14 The lot for the east fell to Shelemiah. They cast lots also for Zechariah his son, a wise counselor, and his lot came out for the north.
15 To Obed-edom it came out for the south, and to his sons the storehouse was allotted.
16 To Shuppim and Hosah the lot fell for the west, by the refuse gate that goes into the ascending highway, post opposite post.
17 On the east were six Levites, on the north four a day, on the south four a day, and two by two at the storehouse.

25 His brethren from Eliezer were his son Rehabiah, his son Jeshaiah, his son Joram, his son Zichri, and his son Shelomoth.
26 This Shelomoth and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the dedicated gifts, which King David, the heads of the fathers’ houses, the officers over thousands and hundreds, and the commanders of the army had dedicated.
27 From spoil won in battles they dedicated gifts to maintain the house of the Lord.
28 Also all that Samuel the seer, Saul son of Kish, Abner son of Ner, and Joab son of Zeruiah had dedicated, and whatever anyone had dedicated, it was in the charge of Shelomoth and his brethren.
29 Of the Izharites: Chenaniah and his sons were appointed to outside duties for Israel, as officers and judges.

32 Jerijah’s kinsmen, men of courage and ability, were 2,700 heads of fathers’ houses; King David made them overseers of the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, for everything pertaining to God and for the affairs of the king.

The Gatekeepers
26 Concerning the divisions of the gatekeepers: of the Korahites, [a]Meshelemiah the son of (A)Kore, of the sons of [b]Asaph. 2 And the sons of Meshelemiah were (B)Zechariah the firstborn, Jediael the second, Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth, 3 Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, Eliehoenai the seventh.
4 Moreover the sons of (C)Obed-Edom were Shemaiah the firstborn, Jehozabad the second, Joah the third, Sacar the fourth, Nethanel the fifth, 5 Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peulthai the eighth; for God blessed him.
6 Also to Shemaiah his son were sons born who governed their fathers’ houses, because they were men of great ability. 7 The sons of Shemaiah were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad, whose brothers Elihu and Semachiah were able men.
8 All these were of the sons of Obed-Edom, they and their sons and their brethren, (D)able men with strength for the work: sixty-two of Obed-Edom.
9 And Meshelemiah had sons and brethren, eighteen able men.
10 Also (E)Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons: Shimri the first (for though he was not the firstborn, his father made him the first), 11 Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, Zechariah the fourth; all the sons and brethren of Hosah were thirteen.
12 Among these were the divisions of the gatekeepers, among the chief men, having duties just like their brethren, to serve in the house of the Lord. 13 And they (F)cast lots for each gate, the small as well as the great, according to their father’s house. 14 The lot for the East Gate fell to [c]Shelemiah. Then they cast lots for his son Zechariah, a wise counselor, and his lot came out for the North Gate; 15 to Obed-Edom the South Gate, and to his sons the [d]storehouse. 16 To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came out for the West Gate, with the Shallecheth Gate on the (G)ascending highway—watchman opposite watchman. 17 On the east were six Levites, on the north four each day, on the south four each day, and for the [e]storehouse two by two. 18 As for the [f]Parbar on the west, there were four on the highway and two at the Parbar. 19 These were the divisions of the gatekeepers among the sons of Korah and among the sons of Merari.
The Treasuries and Other Duties
20 Of the Levites, Ahijah was (H)over the treasuries of the house of God and over the treasuries of the (I)dedicated[g] things. 21 The sons of [h]Laadan, the descendants of the Gershonites of Laadan, heads of their fathers’ houses, of Laadan the Gershonite: [i]Jehieli. 22 The sons of Jehieli, Zetham and Joel his brother, were over the treasuries of the house of the Lord. 23 Of the (J)Amramites, the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites: 24 (K)Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was overseer of the treasuries. 25 And his brethren by Eliezer were Rehabiah his son, Jeshaiah his son, Joram his son, Zichri his son, and (L)Shelomith his son.
26 This Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the dedicated things (M)which King David and the heads of fathers’ houses, the captains over thousands and hundreds, and the captains of the army, had dedicated. 27 Some of the [j]spoils won in battles they dedicated to maintain the house of the Lord. 28 And all that Samuel (N)the seer, Saul the son of Kish, Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah had dedicated, every dedicated thing, was under the hand of Shelomith and his brethren.
29 Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons (O)performed duties as (P)officials and judges over Israel outside Jerusalem.
30 Of the Hebronites, (Q)Hashabiah and his brethren, one thousand seven hundred able men, had the oversight of Israel on the west side of the Jordan for all the business of the Lord, and in the service of the king. 31 Among the Hebronites, (R)Jerijah was head of the Hebronites according to his genealogy of the fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought, and there were found among them capable men (S)at Jazer of Gilead. 32 And his brethren were two thousand seven hundred able men, heads of fathers’ houses, whom King David made officials over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to God and the (T)affairs of the king.

Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
Os porteiros
26 Os turnos dos porteiros ficaram assim:
Dos coreítas: Meselemias filho de Coré, dos filhos de Asafe. 2 Os filhos de Meselemias foram: Zacarias, o mais velho; Jediael, o segundo; Zebadias, o terceiro; Jatniel, o quarto; 3 Elão, o quinto; Joanã, o sexto; e Elioenai, o sétimo.
4 Os filhos de Obede-Edom foram: Semaías, o mais velho; Jeozabade, o segundo; Joá, o terceiro; Sacar, o quarto; Natanael, o quinto; 5 Amiel, o sexto; Issacar, o sétimo; e Peuletai, o oitavo. Obede-Edom foi muito abençoado por Deus ao ter tantos filhos. 6 Semaías filho de Obede-Edom também teve filhos que foram chefes das suas famílias paternas, pois eram muito capazes e corajosos. 7 Estes foram os filhos de Semaías: Otni, Rafael, Obede, Elzabade, Eliú e Semaquias. 8 A família de Obede-Edom tinha ao todo oitenta e dois homens, todos muito corajosos e capazes para o trabalho.
9 Os filhos e irmãos de Meselemias eram dezoito no total. Todos eles foram homens muito corajosos.
10 Hosa, dos filhos de Merari, teve estes filhos: Sinri, que embora não fosse o filho mais velho, seu pai o nomeou chefe; 11 Hilquias, o segundo; Tebelias, o terceiro, e Zacarias, o quarto. Ao todo os filhos e famílias de Hosa eram treze.
12 Dessa forma foi como ficou estabelecido os turnos dos porteiros, tanto dos chefes como dos seus parentes, para que fizessem seus trabalhos no templo do SENHOR. 13 A guarda de cada porta foi feita por sorteio entre todas as famílias, e a todas se tratou por igual.
14 A Selemias coube por sorteio a entrada oriental; ao seu filho Zacarias, conselheiro inteligente, coube a entrada norte. 15 A Obede-Edom coube a entrada sul, e aos seus filhos, a guarda do depósito. 16 A Supim e a Hosa coube a entrada de Salequete, ao oeste, no caminho da subida.
Cada família tinha seus guardas posicionados na entrada que lhes foi designada: 17 na entrada oriental havia seis levitas de guarda todos os dias; tanto na entrada norte como na entrada sul havia quatro levitas todos os dias; na entrada do depósito havia dois. 18 Na parte ocidental havia dois guardas na entrada e quatro no caminho. 19 Assim foram divididos os porteiros descendentes de Coré e descendentes de Merari.
Os tesoureiros e outros oficiais
20 Os outros levitas estavam encarregados de cuidar dos tesouros do templo de Deus, das ofertas e objetos sagrados. 21 Ladã era da família de Gérson, e Jeiel era um dos chefes de família entre os vários grupos de Ladã. 22 Os filhos de Jeiel eram Zetã e Joel. Eles estavam encarregados dos tesouros do templo do SENHOR.
23 Também haviam homens encarregados de certas tarefas, os quais procediam das famílias de Anrão, Isar, Hebrom e Uziel. 24 Moisés foi o pai de Gérson e Gérson foi o pai de Sebuel. Sebuel era o chefe dos oficiais encarregados dos tesouros do templo.
25 Seus parentes em linha direta por parte de Eliézer foram: Reabias, Isaías, Jeorão, Zicri e Selomote. 26 Selomote e seus familiares estavam encarregados de cuidar das ofertas que faziam o rei Davi, os comandantes de 1.000 e 100 homens e os comandantes do exército. 27 Eles tiravam esses presentes dos despojos que conseguiam em suas batalhas. Esses presentes eram para fazer a manutenção do templo do SENHOR. 28 Selomote e seus parentes cuidavam de todos os tesouros que haviam consagrado ao vidente Samuel; a Saul, filho de Quis; a Abner, filho de Ner; e a Joabe, filho de Zeruia.
29 Dos descendentes de Isar estavam Quenanias e seus filhos. Eles estavam encarregados dos assuntos de fora do templo como oficiais e juízes de Israel.
30 Da família de Hebrom estavam Hasabias e seus familiares. Eram ao todo 1.700 homens muito capazes. Eles estavam encarregados de supervisionar Israel no trabalho do SENHOR e no serviço do rei ao oeste do rio Jordão. 31 Jerias era o chefe dos descendentes de Hebrom, assim como aparece nos registros das famílias. No ano quarenta do governo de Davi foi feita uma investigação nos registros das famílias e foi descoberto que havia muitos homens capazes em Jazer-de-Gileade. 32 Jerias tinha 2.700 parentes que eram homens muito capazes e chefes de famílias. O rei Davi os nomeou como chefes das famílias de Rúben, de Gade e da metade da tribo de Manassés. Esses 2.700 homens ficaram encarregados de todos os assuntos de Deus e do rei.
