١ أخبار 25

١ 1 وَأَفْرَزَ دَاوُدُ وَرُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْجَيْشِ لِلْخِدْمَةِ بَنِي آسَافَ وَهَيْمَانَ وَيَدُوثُونَ ٱلْمُتَنَبِّئِينَ بِٱلْعِيدَانِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلصُّنُوجِ. وَكَانَ عَدَدُهُمْ مِنْ رِجَالِ ٱلْعَمَلِ حَسَبَ خِدْمَتِهِمْ.

Moreover, David and the captains of the army set apart for the service certain of the sons of Asaph, of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who were to prophesy with harps, with stringed instruments, and with cymbals. The number of those who did the work according to their service was:

٢ 2 مِنْ بَنِي آسَافَ: زَكُّورُ وَيُوسُفُ وَنَثَنْيَا وَأَشَرْئِيلَةُ. بَنُو آسَافَ تَحْتَ يَدِ آسَافَ ٱلْمُتَنَبِّئِ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

of the sons of Asaph: Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Asharelah. The sons of Asaph were under the hand of Asaph, who prophesied at the order of the king.

٣ 3 مِنْ يَدُوثُونَ، بَنُو يَدُوثُونَ: جَدَلْيَا وَصَرِي وَيِشْعِيَا وَحَشَبْيَا وَمَتَّثْيَا، سِتَّةٌ. تَحْتَ يَدِ أَبِيهِمْ يَدُوثُونَ ٱلْمُتَنَبِّئِ بِٱلْعُودِ لِأَجْلِ ٱلْحَمْدِ وَٱلتَّسْبِيحِ لِلرَّبِّ.

Of Jeduthun, the sons of Jeduthun: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied in giving thanks and praising the LORD with the harp.

٤ 4 مِنْ هَيْمَانَ: بُقِّيَّا وَمَتَّنْيَا وَعُزِّيئِيلُ وَشَبُوئِيلُ وَيَرِيمُوثُ وَحَنَنْيَا وَحَنَانِي وَإِيلِيآثَةُ وَجِدَّلْتِي وَرُومَمْتِي عَزَرُ وَيُشْبَقَاشَةُ وَمَلُوثِي وَهُوثِيرُ وَمَحْزِيُوثُ.

٥ 5 جَمِيعُ هَؤُلَاءِ بَنُو هَيْمَانَ رَائِي ٱلْمَلِكِ بِكَلَامِ ٱللهِ لِرَفْعِ ٱلْقَرْنِ. وَرَزَقَ ٱلرَّبُّ هَيْمَانَ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ ٱبْنًا وَثَلَاثَ بَنَاتٍ.

All these were the sons of Heman the king’s seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.

٦ 6 كُلُّ هَؤُلَاءِ تَحْتَ يَدِ أَبِيهِمْ لِأَجْلِ غِنَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ بِٱلصُّنُوجِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلْعِيدَانِ لِخِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ، تَحْتَ يَدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَآسَافَ وَيَدُوثُونَ وَهَيْمَانَ.

All these were under the hands of their father for song in the LORD’s house, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and harps, for the service of God’s house: Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman being under the order of the king.

٧ 7 وَكَانَ عَدَدُهُمْ مَعَ إِخْوَتِهِمِ ٱلْمُتَعَلِّمِينَ ٱلْغِنَاءَ لِلرَّبِّ، كُلِّ ٱلْخَبِيرِينَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَثَمَانِيَةً وَثَمَانِينَ.

The number of them, with their brothers who were instructed in singing to the LORD, even all who were skilful, was two hundred and eighty-eight.

٨ 8 وَأَلْقَوْا قُرَعَ ٱلْحِرَاسَةِ ٱلصَّغِيرُ كَمَا ٱلْكَبِيرِ، ٱلْمُعَلِّمُ مَعَ ٱلتِّلْمِيذِ.
