17The gatekeepers included Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and other relatives. Shallum was the leader. 17וְהַשֹּׁעֲרִים֙ שַׁלּ֣וּם וְעַקּ֔וּב וְטַלְמֹ֖ן וַאֲחִימָ֑ן וַאֲחִיהֶ֥ם שַׁלּ֖וּם הָרֹֽאשׁ׃

19Kore's son Shallum, who was the grandson of Ebiasaph and the great-grandson of Korah, and the descendants of Korah (who were relatives of his ancestral house) were over the service responsibilities and served as guardians of the entrances of the Tent, just as their ancestors had been in charge of the camp of the LORD and guardians of the entrance. 19וְשַׁלּ֣וּם בֶּן־ ק֠וֹרֵא בֶּן־ אֶבְיָסָ֨ף בֶּן־ קֹ֜רַח וְֽאֶחָ֧יו לְבֵית־ אָבִ֣יו הַקָּרְחִ֗ים עַ֚ל מְלֶ֣אכֶת הָעֲבוֹדָ֔ה שֹׁמְרֵ֥י הַסִּפִּ֖ים לָאֹ֑הֶל וַאֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם֙ עַל־ מַחֲנֵ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה שֹׁמְרֵ֖י הַמָּבֽוֹא׃
20Eleazar's son Phinehas used to be Commander-in-Chief over them—the LORD was with him. 20וּפִֽינְחָ֣ס בֶּן־ אֶלְעָזָ֗ר נָגִ֨יד הָיָ֧ה עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם לְפָנִ֖ים יְהוָ֥ה ׀ עִמּֽוֹ׃
21Meshelemiah's son Zechariah was gatekeeper at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. 21זְכַרְיָה֙ בֶּ֣ן מְשֶֽׁלֶמְיָ֔ה שֹׁעֵ֥ר פֶּ֖תַח לְאֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃
22All these, who had been set apart as gatekeepers at the entrances, numbered 212 and had been enrolled by genealogies in their villages. David and Samuel the seer installed them in their positions of trust, 22כֻּלָּ֤ם הַבְּרוּרִים֙ לְשֹׁעֲרִ֣ים בַּסִּפִּ֔ים מָאתַ֖יִם וּשְׁנֵ֣ים עָשָׂ֑ר הֵ֤מָּה בְחַצְרֵיהֶם֙ הִתְיַחְשָׂ֔ם הֵ֣מָּה יִסַּ֥ד דָּוִ֛יד וּשְׁמוּאֵ֥ל הָרֹאֶ֖ה בֶּאֱמוּנָתָֽם׃
23so they and their descendants were in charge of the gates of the house of the LORD, that is, the House of the Tent, as guardians. 23וְהֵ֨ם וּבְנֵיהֶ֜ם עַל־ הַשְּׁעָרִ֧ים לְבֵית־ יְהוָ֛ה לְבֵ֥ית־ הָאֹ֖הֶל לְמִשְׁמָרֽוֹת׃
24The guardians were stationed on four sides—east, west, north, and south. 24לְאַרְבַּ֣ע רוּח֔וֹת יִהְי֖וּ הַשֹּׁעֲרִ֑ים מִזְרָ֥ח יָ֖מָּה צָפ֥וֹנָה וָנֶֽגְבָּה׃
25Their relatives who lived in their villages were required to visit every seven days to be with them in turn, 25וַאֲחֵיהֶ֨ם בְּחַצְרֵיהֶ֜ם לָב֨וֹא לְשִׁבְעַ֧ת הַיָּמִ֛ים מֵעֵ֥ת אֶל־ עֵ֖ת עִם־ אֵֽלֶּה׃
26because the four senior gatekeepers (who were descendants of Levi) had been placed in charge of the chambers and the treasury of the Temple of God. 26כִּ֣י בֶאֱמוּנָ֞ה הֵ֗מָּה אַרְבַּ֙עַת֙ גִּבֹּרֵ֣י הַשֹּׁעֲרִ֔ים הֵ֖ם הַלְוִיִּ֑ם וְהָיוּ֙ עַל־ הַלְּשָׁכ֔וֹת וְעַ֥ל הָאֹצְר֖וֹת בֵּ֥ית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃
27They spent the night near the Temple of God, since they had been entrusted to guard it. They were in charge of opening it every morning.27וּסְבִיב֥וֹת בֵּית־ הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים יָלִ֑ינוּ כִּֽי־ עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם מִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת וְהֵ֥ם עַל־ הַמַּפְתֵּ֖חַ וְלַבֹּ֥קֶר לַבֹּֽקֶר׃
28Some were responsible for the service utensils, and they were required to take an inventory of them when they were brought in and out. 28וּמֵהֶ֖ם עַל־ כְּלֵ֣י הָעֲבוֹדָ֑ה כִּֽי־ בְמִסְפָּ֣ר יְבִיא֔וּם וּבְמִסְפָּ֖ר יוֹצִיאֽוּם׃
29Others were responsible for the furniture and for all of the holy utensils, including the flour, wine, oil, incense, and spices. 29וּמֵהֶ֗ם מְמֻנִּים֙ עַל־ הַכֵּלִ֔ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־ כְּלֵ֣י הַקֹּ֑דֶשׁ וְעַל־ הַסֹּ֙לֶת֙ וְהַיַּ֣יִן וְהַשֶּׁ֔מֶן וְהַלְּבוֹנָ֖ה וְהַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃
30Other descendants of the priests prepared the mixed spices. 30וּמִן־ בְּנֵי֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים רֹקְחֵ֥י הַמִּרְקַ֖חַת לַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃
31Mattithiah, a descendant of Levi and firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, was in charge of making the offering cakes. 31וּמַתִּתְיָה֙ מִן־ הַלְוִיִּ֔ם ה֥וּא הַבְּכ֖וֹר לְשַׁלֻּ֣ם הַקָּרְחִ֑י בֶּאֱמוּנָ֕ה עַ֖ל מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה הַחֲבִתִּֽים׃
32Some of their Kohathite relatives were responsible to prepare the rows of bread for each Sabbath. 32וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֧י הַקְּהָתִ֛י מִן־ אֲחֵיהֶ֖ם עַל־ לֶ֣חֶם הַֽמַּעֲרָ֑כֶת לְהָכִ֖ין שַׁבַּ֥ת שַׁבָּֽת׃ ס
33These singers, leaders of ancestral households of the descendants of Levi, were living in the chambers of the Temple. Freed from other service responsibilities, they were on duty day and night. 33וְאֵ֣לֶּה הַ֠מְשֹׁרְרִים רָאשֵׁ֨י אָב֧וֹת לַלְוִיִּ֛ם בַּלְּשָׁכֹ֖ת [פטירים] (פְּטוּרִ֑ים) כִּֽי־ יוֹמָ֥ם וָלַ֛יְלָה עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃
34These leaders of the descendants of Levi, enrolled according to their genealogies, lived in Jerusalem.34אֵלֶּה֩ רָאשֵׁ֨י הָאָב֧וֹת לַלְוִיִּ֛ם לְתֹלְדוֹתָ֖ם רָאשִׁ֑ים אֵ֖לֶּה יָשְׁב֥וּ בִירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ פ
35Jeiel, who fathered Gibeon, lived in the city of Gibeon. His wife was named Maacah. 35וּבְגִבְע֛וֹן יָשְׁב֥וּ אֲבִֽי־ גִבְע֖וֹן [יעואל] (יְעִיאֵ֑ל) וְשֵׁ֥ם אִשְׁתּ֖וֹ מַעֲכָֽה׃
36His firstborn son was Abdon, followed by Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab, 36וּבְנ֥וֹ הַבְּכ֖וֹר עַבְדּ֑וֹן וְצ֣וּר וְקִ֔ישׁ וּבַ֥עַל וְנֵ֖ר וְנָדָֽב׃
37Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah, and Mikloth. 37וּגְד֣וֹר וְאַחְי֔וֹ וּזְכַרְיָ֖ה וּמִקְלֽוֹת׃
