1 Chronicles 26:8-15
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 26
8All these were of the sons of Obed-edom; they and their sons and relatives were able men with strength for the service, sixty-two from Obed-edom. 9Meshelemiah had sons and relatives, eighteen valiant men. 10Also Hosah, one of the sons of Merari had sons: Shimri the first (although he was not the firstborn, his father made him first), 11Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, and Zechariah the fourth; the sons and relatives of Hosah were thirteen in all.
12To these divisions of the gatekeepers, to the chief men, were given duties like their relatives, to serve in the house of the Lord.
13They cast lots, the small and the great alike, according to their fathers’ households, for every gate.
14The lot to the east fell to Shelemiah. Then they cast lots for his son Zechariah, a counselor with insight, and his lot came out to the north.
15For Obed-edom it fell to the south, and to his sons went the storehouse.
King James Version

Then for Zechariah his son, a wise counseller, they cast lots; and his lot came out northward. 15To Obededom southward; and to his sons the house of Asuppim.Christian Standard Bible
