Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.

Verse 5 is found in chapter 24 of 1 Chronicles. The descendants of Aaron are organized into twenty-four priestly divisions by lot. The procedure distributes responsibilities in an orderly manner and prevents service from remaining indefinitely concentrated in one family. The system of rotations will be fundamental to the regular functioning of priestly worship.

Er ordnete sie aber durchs Los, darum daß beide aus Eleasars und Ithamars Kindern Oberste waren im Heiligtum und Oberste vor Gott.
Repartiéronlos pues por suerte los unos con los otros: porque de los hijos de Eleazar y de los hijos de Ithamar hubo príncipes del santuario, y príncipes de la casa de Dios.
On les classa par le sort, les uns avec les autres, car les chefs du sanctuaire et les chefs de Dieu étaient des fils d'Eléazar et des fils d'Ithamar.
E gli spartimenti furono fatti a sorte, gli uni per mezzo gli altri; perciocchè anche i capi del santuario, e della Casa di Dio, erano de’ figliuoli di Eleazaro, e de’ figliuoli d’Itamar.
E os repartiram por sortes, uns com os outros; porque houve governadores do santuário e governadores da casa de Deus, assim dentre os filhos de Eleazar, como dentre os filhos de Itamar.
他們抽籤分配,彼此一樣。在聖所和上帝面前作領袖的有 以利亞撒 的子孫,也有 以他瑪 的子孫。
