1 Chronicles 9:22-24

New King James Version

²² All those chosen as gatekeepers were two hundred and twelve. ^(A)They were recorded by their genealogy, in their villages. David and Samuel ^(B)the seer had appointed them to their trusted office. ²³ So they and their children were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord, the house of the tabernacle, by assignment. ²⁴ The gatekeepers were assigned to the four directions: the east, west, north, and south.
