2 Chronicles 23:5-7

Names of God Bible

⁵ Another third must be at the royal palace. And another third must be at Foundation Gate. All the people must be in the courtyards of Yahweh’s temple. ⁶ No one should come into Yahweh’s temple except the priests and the Levites who are on duty with them. They may enter because they are holy, but all other people should follow Yahweh’s regulations. ⁷ The Levites should surround the king. Each man should have his weapon in his hand. Kill anyone who tries to come into the temple. Stay with the king wherever he goes.”
