1 Chronicles 9:2–22

²Now the first inhabitants who were settled on their property in their cities in Israel were the priests, the Levites, and the temple servants. ³And some of the people of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh lived in Jerusalem: ⁴Uthai the son of Ammihud, son of Omri, son of Imri, son of Bani,^a from the sons of Perez,^b the son of Judah. ⁵And from the Shilonites: Asaiah the firstborn and his sons. ⁶And from the sons of Zerah: Jeuel and their brethren, six hundred and ninety. ⁷And from the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam, son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah; ⁸Ibneah the son of Jeroham; Elah the son of Uzzi, son of Michri; Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, son of Reuel, son of Ibnijah; ⁹and their brethren according to their generations, nine hundred and fifty-six. All these men were the heads of the families^c in the house of their fathers.

¹⁰And from the priests: Jedaiah; Jehoiarib; Jakin; ¹¹Azariah son of Hilkiah, son of Meshullam, son of Zadok, son of Meraioth, son of Ahitub, the commander of the house of God; ¹²Adaiah son of Jeroham, son of Pashhur, son of Malkijah; Maasai the son of Adiel, son of Jahzerah, son of Meshullam, son of Meshillemith, son of Immer; ¹³and their kinsmen, heads of the house of their fathers, one thousand seven hundred and sixty mighty men for the work of the service of the house of God.

¹⁴And from the Levites: Shemaiah son of Hasshub, son of Azrikam, son of Hashabiah, from the sons of Merari; ¹⁵Bakbakkar; Heresh; Galal; Mattaniah the son of Mica, son of Zicri, son of Asaph; ¹⁶Obadiah the son of Shemaiah, son of Galal, son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah the son of Asa, son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of Netophathite.

¹⁷And the gatekeepers were Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and their brethren (Shallum was the chief); ¹⁸until then they were gatekeepers at the gate of the king on the east side toward the camps of the Levites. ¹⁹And Shallum the son of Kore, son of Ebiasaph, son of Korah, and his kinsmen of the house of his fathers, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, the guardians of the entrances to the tent, and their fathers were over the camp of Yahweh, guardians of the entrance. ²⁰And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the leader over them in time past;^d Yahweh was with him. ²¹Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper at the doorway to the tent of assembly.^{e 22}All of them were chosen as gatekeepers at the entrances, two hundred and twelve. They were enrolled by genealogies in their villages. They were established by David and Samuel the seer on account of their faithfulness.
