2 Kings 11:6

And a third part [shall be] at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down.

And a third part {H7992} shall be at the gate {H8179} of Sur {H5495}; and a third part {H7992} at the gate {H8179} behind {H310} the guard {H7323}: so shall ye keep {H8104} the watch {H4931} of the house {H1004}, that it be not broken down {H4535}.

a third is at the Sur Gate and a third is at the gate behind the guards. [The first third] is to continue guarding the palace and serve as a barrier,

a 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—

and a third part shall be at the gate Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
