So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies ;

they were written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah ,
who were carried away to Babylon for their transgression .

Now the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions in their cities were ,

And the porters were ,

and their brethren :
Shallum was the chief ;
*
Who hitherto waited in the king '

they were porters in the companies of the children of Levi .
*
And Shallum the son of Kore ,
the son of Ebiasaph ,
the son of Korah ,
and his brethren ,
of the house of his father ,
the Korahites ,
were over the work of the service ,
keepers of the gates of the tabernacle :
and their fathers ,
being over the host of the LORD ,
were keepers of the entry .
*
And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them in time past ,
and the LORD was with him .
*
And Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation .
*
All these which were chosen to be porters in the gates were two hundred and twelve .
These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages ,
whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office .
*
So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD ,
namely ,
the house of the tabernacle ,
by wards .
*
In four quarters were the porters ,
toward the east ,
west ,
north ,
and south .
*
And their brethren ,
which were in their villages ,
were to come after seven days from time to time with them .
*
For these Levites ,
the four chief porters ,
were in their set office ,
and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God .
*
And they lodged round about the house of God ,
because the charge was upon them ,
and the opening thereof every morning pertained to them .
*
And certain of them had the charge of the ministering vessels ,
that they should bring them in and out by tale .
*
Some of them also were appointed to oversee the vessels ,
and all the instruments of the sanctuary ,
and the fine flour ,
and the wine ,
and the oil ,
and the frankincense ,
and the spices .
*
And some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices .
*
And Mattithiah ,
one of the Levites ,
who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite ,
had the set office over the things that were made in the pans .
*
And other of their brethren ,
of the sons of the Kohathites ,
were over the shewbread ,
to prepare it every sabbath .
*
And these are the singers ,
chief of the fathers of the Levites ,
who remaining in the chambers were free :
for they were employed in that work day and night .
*
These chief fathers of the Levites were chief throughout their generations ;
these dwelt at Jerusalem .
*
And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon ,
Jehiel ,
whose wife '
s name was Maachah :
*
And his firstborn son Abdon ,
then Zur ,
and Kish ,
and Baal ,

over against their brethren .
*
And Ner begat Kish ;
and Kish begat Saul ;
and Saul begat Jonathan ,
and Malchishua ,
and Abinadab ,
and Eshbaal .
*
And the son of Jonathan was Meribbaal :
and Meribbaal begat Micah .
*
And the sons of Micah were ,
Pithon ,
and Melech ,
and Tahrea ,
and Ahaz .
*
And Ahaz begat Jarah ;
and Jarah begat Alemeth ,
and Azmaveth ,
and Zimri ;
and Zimri begat Moza ;
*
And Moza begat Binea ;
and Rephaiah his son ,
Eleasah his son ,
Azel his son .
*
And Azel had six sons ,
whose names are these ,
Azrikam ,
Bocheru ,
and Ishmael ,
and Sheariah ,
and Obadiah ,
and Hanan :
these were the sons of Azel .
*
Now the Philistines fought against Israel ;
and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines ,
and fell down slain in mount Gilboa .
