25 E seus irmãos que estavam em suas aldeias vinham de tempos em tempos para durante sete dias [servirem] com eles.

26 Pois havia naquele ofício chefes dos porteiros, que eram levitas; e eles eram encarregados das câmaras e dos tesouros da casa de Deus.

27 E passavam a noite ao redor da casa de Deus, porque eram responsáveis pela guarda, e por abri-la a cada manhã.

28 Alguns destes eram encarregados dos utensílios do serviço, pois os colocavam contados, e contados os tiravam.

29 E outros deles eram encarregados da mobília, e de todos os utensílios do santuário, como também da farinha, do vinho, do azeite, do incenso, e das especiarias.
