10 De Hosa, de los hijos de Merari: Simri el principal, (aunque no era el primogénito, mas su padre lo puso para que fuese cabeza;)

11 El segundo Hilcías, el tercero Tebelías, el cuarto Zachârías: todos los hijos de Hosa y sus hermanos fueron trece.

12 Entre estos [se hizo] la distribución de los porteros, [alternando] los principales de los varones en la guardia con sus hermanos, para servir en la casa de Jehová.

13 Y echaron suertes, el pequeño con el grande, por las casas de sus padres, para cada puerta.

14 Y cayó la suerte al oriente á Selemía. Y á Zachârías su hijo, consejero entendido, metieron en las suertes: y salió la suerte suya al norte.
