DIVRE HAYAMIM ALEF - FIRST CHRONICLES
26 Concerning the divisions of the gatekeepers: Of the
Korachites was Meshelemyahu the son of Korach, of the
sons of Asaph.
2 And the sons of Meshelemyahu were, Zecharyahu the
bachor, Yediya-El the second, Zevadyahu the third,
Yathniel the fourth,
3 Eylam the fifth, Yehohanan the sixth, Elioeynai the
seventh.
4 Moreover the sons of Oved-Edom were, Shemayah the
bachor, Yehozavad the second, Yoah the third, and Sakar
the fourth, and Natan-El the fifth,
5 Ammi-El the sixth, Yissachar the seventh, Peulthai the
eighth: for Elohim blessed him.
6 Also to Shemayah his son were sons born, that ruled
throughout the bayit of their abba: for they were mighty
men of bravery.
7 The sons of Shemayah; Othni, and Repha-El, and Oved,
Elzavad, whose brothers were strong men, Elihu, and
Semachyah.
8 All these of the sons of Oved-Edom: they and their sons
and their brothers, able men for strength for the service,
were sixty-two of Oved-Edom.
9 And Meshelemiyah had sons and brothers, strong men,
eighteen.
10 Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons; Simri
the chief, for though he was not the bachor, yet his abba
made him the chief;
11 Hilkiyahu the second, Tevalyahu the third, Zecharyah
the fourth: all the sons and brothers of Hosah were
thirteen.
12 Among these were the divisions of the gatekeepers,
even among the chief men, having duties like their
brothers, to attend in the Bayit of vuvh.
13 And they cast lots as well, the small as the great,
according to the bayit of their ahvot, for every gate.
14 And the lot eastward fell to Shelemyahu. Then for
Zecharyah his son, a wise counselor, they cast lots; and
his lot came out northward.
15 To Oved-Edom southward; and to his sons the
porches.
16 To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward,
with the Shallecheth-Gate, by the ascending highway,
guard corresponding with guard.
17 Eastward were six Lewiym, northward four a day,
southward four a day, and toward the porches two and
two.
18 At Parbar westward, four at the highway, and two
- 559 -
at Parbar.
19 These are the divisions of the gatekeepers among the
sons of Korach, and among the sons of Merari.
20 And of the Lewiym, Achiyah was over the treasures of
the Bayit of Elohim, and over the treasures of the kadosh
things.
21 As concerning the sons of Laadan; the sons of the
Gershonite Laadan, heads of their ahvot, even of Laadan
the Gershonite, were Yehi-Eli.
22 The sons of Yehi-Eli; Zetham, and Yo-El his brother,
which were over the treasures of the Bayit of vuvh.
23 Of the Amramites, and the Yitzharites, the Hevronites,
and the Uzzielites:
24 And Shevuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moshe,
was chief of the treasures.
25 And his brothers by Eli-Ezer; Rechavyahu his son, and
Yeshayahu his son, and Yoram his son, and Zichri his
son, and Shelomith his son.
26 Shelomith and his brothers were over all the treasures
of the kadosh things, that Dawid the melech, and the
heads of the ahvot, the commanders over thousands and
hundreds, and the commanders of the army, had set-apart.
27 Out of the plunders won in battles did they set-apart to
maintain the Bayit of vuvh.
28 And all that Schmuel the seer, and Shaul the son of
Kish, and Avner the son of Ner, and Yoav the son of
Tzeruyah, had set-apart; and whoever had set-apart
anything, it was under the hand of Shelomith, and of his
brothers.
29 Of the Yitzharites, Chenanyah and his sons were for
the outward duties over Yisrael, for officers and
shophtim.
30 And of the Hevronites, Hashaviyahu and his brothers,
men of bravery, a thousand seven hundred, were officers
among them of Yisrael on the west side of the Yarden in
all the duties of vuvh, and in the service of the melech.
31 Among the Hevronites was YeriYah the chief, among
the Hevronites, according to the generations of his ahvot.
In the fortieth year of the reign of Dawid they were
sought for, and there were found among them mighty men
of bravery at Yazer of Gilad.
32 And his brothers, men of bravery, were two thousand
seven hundred heads of the ahvot, whom melech Dawid
made rulers over the Reuvenites, the Gadites, and the half
tribe of Menashsheh, for every matter pertaining to
Elohim, and in the affairs of the melech.
27
Now the children of Yisrael after their number, the
heads of the ahvot and commanders of thousands and
hundreds, and their officers that served the melech in any
matter of the divisions, that came in and went out month
by month throughout all the months of the year, of every
division were twenty four thousand.
2 Over the first course for the first month was Yashoveam
the son of Zavdiel: and in his course were twenty four
thousand.
3 Of the children of Peretz was the chief of all the
commanders of the host for the first month.
4 And over the course of the second month was Dodai an
Ahohite, and of his course was Mikloth also the chief: in
his course likewise were twenty four thousand.
5 The third commander of the army for the third month
was Benyahu the son of Yahuyadah, a chief kohen: and in
