And they lodged round about the house of God, because the charge thereof was upon them; and to them pertained the opening thereof morning by morning.

They would spend the night stationed around the house of God, because they were responsible for guarding it and opening it every morning.

and round about the house of God they lodge, for on them is the watch, and they are over the opening, even morning by morning.

for they stayed round about the house ofGod during the night, because the charge was upon them, and the opening thereof every morning [pertained] to them.
