1st Chronicles 历代志上09

 
9All Israel was listed in the genealogies¹ recorded in the book of the kings of Israel. The people of Judah were taken captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness.
2Now the first to resettle on their own property in their own towns were some Israelites, priests, Levites and temple servants.
3Those from Judah, from Benjamin, and from Ephraim and Manasseh who lived in Jerusalem were:
4Uthai son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, a descendant of Perez son of Judah.
5Of the Shilonites: Asaiah the firstborn and his sons.

7Of the Benjamites: Sallu son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah;
8Ibneiah son of Jeroham; Elah son of Uzzi, the son of Micri; and Meshullam son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah.
9The people from Benjamin, as listed in their genealogy², numbered 956. All these men were heads of their families.

18being stationed at the King's Gate on the east, up to the present time. These were the gatekeepers belonging to the camp of the Levites.
19Shallum son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his fellow gatekeepers from his family (the Korahites) were responsible for guarding the thresholds of the Tent just as their fathers had been responsible for guarding the entrance to the dwelling⁴ of the Lord .
20In earlier times Phinehas son of Eleazar was in charge of the gatekeepers, and the Lord was with him.
21Zechariah son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
22Altogether, those chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds numbered 212. They were registered by genealogy in their villages. The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer.
23They and their descendants were in charge of guarding the gates of the house of the Lord -the house called the Tent.
24The gatekeepers were on the four sides: east, west, north and south.
25Their brothers in their villages had to come from time to time and share their duties for seven-day periods.
26But the four principal gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted⁵ with the responsibility for the rooms and treasuries⁶ in the house of God.
27They would spend the night stationed around the house of God, because they had to guard it; and they had charge of the key for opening it each morning.
28Some of them were in charge of the articles used in the temple service; they counted them when they were brought in and when they were taken out.
29Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all the other articles of the sanctuary⁷, as well as the flour and wine, and the oil, incense⁸ and spices.
30But some of the priests took care of mixing the spices.
31A Levite named Mattithiah, the firstborn son of Shallum the Korahite, was entrusted with the responsibility for baking the offering bread.
32Some of their Kohathite brothers were in charge of preparing for every Sabbath the bread set out on the table.
33Those who were musicians, heads of Levite families, stayed in the rooms of the temple and were exempt⁹ from other duties because they were responsible for the work day and night.
34All these were heads of Levite families, chiefs as listed in their genealogy, and they lived in Jerusalem.
35Jeiel the father of Gibeon lived in Gibeon. His wife's name was Maacah,
36and his firstborn son was Abdon, followed by Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab,
