5and commanded them, “This is what you are to do: A third of you who come on duty on the Sabbath shall guard the royal palace,
6a third shall be at the gate of Sur, and a third at the gate behind the guards. You are to take turns guarding the temple —
7the two divisions that would go off duty on the Sabbath are to guard the house of the LORD for the king.
— 2 Kings 11:5-7
