Les portiers du Temple et les intendants
26 Voici les classes des portiers. Des Koréites: Meschélémia, fils de Koré, d’entre les fils d’Asaph. 2 Fils de Meschélémia: Zacharie, le premier-né, Jediaël le second, Zebadia le troisième, Jathniel le quatrième, 3 Elam le cinquième, Jochanan le sixième, Eljoénaï le septième. 4 Fils d’Obed-Edom: Schemaeja, le premier-né, Jozabad le second, Joach le troisième, Sacar le quatrième, Nethaneel le cinquième, 5 Ammiel le sixième, Issacar le septième, Peulthaï le huitième; car Dieu l’avait béni. 6 A Schemaeja, son fils, naquirent des fils qui dominèrent dans la maison de leur père, car ils étaient de vaillants hommes; 7 fils de Schemaeja: Othni, Rephaël, Obed, Elzabad et ses frères, hommes vaillants, Elihu et Semaeja. 8 Tous ceux-là étaient des fils d’Obed-Edom; eux, leurs fils et leurs frères, étaient des hommes pleins de vigueur et de force pour le service, soixante-deux d’Obed-Edom. 9 Les fils et les frères de Meschélémia, hommes vaillants, étaient au nombre de dix-huit. 10 Des fils de Merari: Hosa, qui avait pour fils: Schimri, le chef, établi chef par son père, quoiqu’il ne soit pas le premier-né, 11 Hilkija le second, Thebalia le troisième, Zacharie le quatrième. Tous les fils et les frères de Hosa étaient au nombre de treize. 12 A ces classes de portiers, aux chefs de ces hommes et à leurs frères, fut remise la garde pour le service de la maison de l’Eternel. 13 Ils tirèrent au sort pour chaque porte, petits et grands, selon leurs maisons paternelles.
14 Le sort échut à Schélémia pour le côté de l’orient. On tira au sort pour Zacharie, son fils, qui était un sage conseiller, et le côté du septentrion lui échut par le sort. 15 Le côté du midi échut à Obed-Edom, et la maison des magasins à ses fils. 16 Le côté de l’occident échut à Schuppim et à Hosa, avec la porte Schalléketh, sur le chemin montant: une garde était vis-à-vis de l’autre. 17 Il y avait à l’orient six Lévites, au nord quatre par jour, au midi quatre par jour, et quatre aux magasins en deux places différentes; 18 du côté du faubourg, à l’occident, quatre vers le chemin, deux vers le faubourg.
19 Ce sont là les classes des portiers, d’entre les fils des Koréites et d’entre les fils de Merari.
20 L’un des Lévites, Achija, avait l’intendance des trésors de la maison de Dieu et des trésors des choses saintes. 21 Parmi les fils de Laedan, les fils des Guerschonites issus de Laedan, chefs des maisons paternelles de Laedan le Guerschonite, c’étaient Jehiéli, 22 et les fils de Jehiéli, Zétham et Joël, son frère, qui gardaient les trésors de la maison de l’Eternel. 23 Parmi les Amramites, les Jitseharites, les Hébronites et les Uziélites, 24 c’était Schebuel, fils de Guerschom, fils de Moïse, qui était intendant des trésors. 25 Parmi ses frères issus d’Eliézer, dont le fils fut Rechabia, dont le fils fut Esaïe, dont le fils fut Joram, dont le fils fut Zicri, dont le fils fut Schelomith, 26 c’étaient Schelomith et ses frères qui gardaient tous les trésors des choses saintes qu’avaient consacrées le roi David, les chefs des maisons paternelles, les chefs de milliers et de centaines, et les chefs de l’armée: 27 c’était sur le butin pris à la guerre qu’ils les avaient consacrées pour l’entretien de la maison de l’Eternel. 28 Tout ce qui avait été consacré par Samuel, le voyant, par Saül, fils de Kis, par Abner, fils de Ner, par Joab, fils de Tseruja, toutes les choses consacrées étaient sous la garde de Schelomith et de ses frères.
Les magistrats et les surveillants en Israël
29 Parmi les Jitseharites, Kenania et ses frères étaient employés pour les affaires extérieures, comme magistrats et juges en Israël. 30 Parmi les Hébronites, Haschabia et ses frères, hommes vaillants, au nombre de mille sept cents, avaient la surveillance d’Israël, de l’autre côté du Jourdain, à l’occident, pour toutes les affaires de l’Eternel et pour le service du roi. 31 En ce qui concerne les Hébronites, dont Jerija était le chef, on fit, la quarantième année du règne de David, des recherches à leur égard d’après leurs généalogies et leurs maisons paternelles, et l’on trouva parmi eux de vaillants hommes à Jaezer en Galaad. 32 Les frères de Jerija, hommes vaillants, étaient au nombre de deux mille sept cents chefs de maisons paternelles. Le roi David les établit sur les Rubénites, sur les Gadites et sur la demi-tribu de Manassé pour toutes les affaires de Dieu et pour les affaires du roi.
1 Chronicles 26
King James Version
26 Concerning the divisions of the porters: Of the Korhites was Meshelemiah the son of Kore, of the sons of Asaph.
2 And the sons of Meshelemiah were, Zechariah the firstborn, Jediael the second, Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth,
3 Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, Elioenai the seventh.
4 Moreover the sons of Obededom were, Shemaiah the firstborn, Jehozabad the second, Joah the third, and Sacar the fourth, and Nethaneel the fifth.
5 Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peulthai the eighth: for God blessed him.
6 Also unto Shemaiah his son were sons born, that ruled throughout the house of their father: for they were mighty men of valour.
7 The sons of Shemaiah; Othni, and Rephael, and Obed, Elzabad, whose brethren were strong men, Elihu, and Semachiah.
8 All these of the sons of Obededom: they and their sons and their brethren, able men for strength for the service, were threescore and two of Obededom.
9 And Meshelemiah had sons and brethren, strong men, eighteen.
10 Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons; Simri the chief, (for though he was not the firstborn, yet his father made him the chief;)
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 porters, even among the chief men, having wards one against another, to minister in the house of the Lord.
13 And they cast lots, as well the small as the great, according to the house of their fathers, for every gate.
14 And the lot eastward fell to Shelemiah. Then for Zechariah his son, a wise counsellor, they cast lots; and his lot came out northward.
15 To Obededom southward; and to his sons the house of Asuppim.
16 To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward, with the gate Shallecheth, by the causeway of the going up, ward against ward.
17 Eastward were six Levites, northward four a day, southward four a day, and toward Asuppim two and two.
18 At Parbar westward, four at the causeway, and two at Parbar.
19 These are the divisions of the porters among the sons of Kore, and among the sons of Merari.
20 And of the Levites, Ahijah was over the treasures of the house of God, and over the treasures of the dedicated things.
21 As concerning the sons of Laadan; the sons of the Gershonite Laadan, chief fathers, even of Laadan the Gershonite, were Jehieli.
22 The sons of Jehieli; Zetham, and Joel his brother, which were over the treasures of the house of the Lord.
23 Of the Amramites, and the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites:
24 And Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was ruler of the treasures.
25 And his brethren by Eliezer; Rehabiah his son, and Jeshaiah his son, and Joram his son, and Zichri his son, and Shelomith his son.
26 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 dedicated.
27 Out of the spoils won in battles did they dedicate to maintain the house of the Lord.
28 And 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; and whosoever had dedicated any thing, it was under the hand of Shelomith, and of his brethren.
29 Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons were for the outward business over Israel, for officers and judges.
30 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 the king.
31 Among the Hebronites was Jerijah the chief, even among the Hebronites, according to the generations of his fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought for, and there were found among them mighty men of valour at Jazer of Gilead.
32 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 God, and affairs of the king.

The Gatekeepers
26 The divisions of the gatekeepers:(A)
From the Korahites: Meshelemiah son of Kore, one of the sons of Asaph.
2 Meshelemiah had sons:
Zechariah(B) the firstborn,
Jediael the second,
Zebadiah the third,
Jathniel the fourth,
3 Elam the fifth,

and Eliehoenai the seventh.
4 Obed-Edom also had sons:
Shemaiah the firstborn,
Jehozabad the second,
Joah the third,
Sakar the fourth,
Nethanel the fifth,
5 Ammiel the sixth,
Issachar the seventh
and Peullethai the eighth.
(For God had blessed Obed-Edom.(C))
6 Obed-Edom’s son Shemaiah also had sons, who were leaders in their father’s family because they were very capable men. 7 The sons of Shemaiah: Othni, Rephael, Obed and Elzabad; his relatives Elihu and Semakiah were also able men. 8 All these were descendants of Obed-Edom; they and their sons and their relatives were capable men with the strength to do the work—descendants of Obed-Edom, 62 in all.
9 Meshelemiah had sons and relatives, who were able men—18 in all.
10 Hosah the Merarite had sons: Shimri the first (although he was not the firstborn, his father had appointed him the first),(D) 11 Hilkiah the second, Tabaliah the third and Zechariah the fourth. The sons and relatives of Hosah were 13 in all.
12 These divisions of the gatekeepers, through their leaders, had duties for ministering(E) in the temple of the Lord, just as their relatives had. 13 Lots(F) were cast for each gate, according to their families, young and old alike.
14 The lot for the East Gate(G) fell to Shelemiah.[a] Then lots were cast for his son Zechariah,(H) a wise counselor, and the lot for the North Gate fell to him. 15 The lot for the South Gate fell to Obed-Edom,(I) and the lot for the storehouse fell to his sons. 16 The lots for the West Gate and the Shalleketh Gate on the upper road fell to Shuppim and Hosah.
Guard was alongside of guard: 17 There were six Levites a day on the east, four a day on the north, four a day on the south and two at a time at the storehouse. 18 As for the court[b] to the west, there were four at the road and two at the court[c] itself.
19 These were the divisions of the gatekeepers who were descendants of Korah and Merari.(J)
The Treasurers and Other Officials
20 Their fellow Levites(K) were[d] in charge of the treasuries of the house of God and the treasuries for the dedicated things.(L)
21 The descendants of Ladan, who were Gershonites through Ladan and who were heads of families belonging to Ladan the Gershonite,(M) were Jehieli, 22 the sons of Jehieli, Zetham and his brother Joel. They were in charge of the treasuries(N) of the temple of the Lord.
23 From the Amramites, the Izharites, the Hebronites and the Uzzielites:(O)
24 Shubael,(P) a descendant of Gershom son of Moses, was the official in charge of the treasuries. 25 His relatives through Eliezer: Rehabiah his son, Jeshaiah his son, Joram his son, Zikri his son and Shelomith(Q) his son. 26 Shelomith and his relatives were in charge of all the treasuries for the things dedicated(R) by King David, by the heads of families who were the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and by the other army commanders. 27 Some of the plunder taken in battle they dedicated for the repair of the temple of the Lord. 28 And everything dedicated by Samuel the seer(S) and by Saul son of Kish, Abner son of Ner and Joab son of Zeruiah, and all the other dedicated things were in the care of Shelomith and his relatives.
29 From the Izharites: Kenaniah and his sons were assigned duties away from the temple, as officials and judges(T) over Israel.
30 From the Hebronites: Hashabiah(U) and his relatives—seventeen hundred able men—were responsible in Israel west of the Jordan for all the work of the Lord and for the king’s service. 31 As for the Hebronites,(V) Jeriah was their chief according to the genealogical records of their families. In the fortieth(W) year of David’s reign a search was made in the records, and capable men among the Hebronites were found at Jazer in Gilead. 32 Jeriah had twenty-seven hundred relatives, who were able men and heads of families, and King David put them in charge of the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh for every matter pertaining to God and for the affairs of the king.
