3 E toda a multidão fez aliança com o rei na casa de Deus. E ele lhes disse: Eis que o filho do rei, o qual reinará, como o SENHOR o tem dito dos filhos de Davi.

4 O que haveis de fazer é: a terceira parte de vós, os que entram de semana, estarão de porteiros com os sacerdotes e os levitas;

5 E a terceira parte, à casa do rei; e a terceira parte, à porta do fundamento: e todo o povo estará nos pátios da casa do SENHOR.

6 E ninguém entre na casa do SENHOR, a não ser os sacerdotes e levitas que servem: estes entrarão, porque estão consagrados; e todo o povo fará a guarda do SENHOR.

7 E os levitas rodearão ao rei por todas as partes, e cada um terá suas armas na mão; e qualquer um que entrar na casa, morra: e estareis com o rei quando entrar, e quando sair.
