٢٨ 28 وَبَاقِي ٱلشَّعْبِ وَٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاَوِيِّينَ وَٱلْبَوَّابِينَ وَٱلْمُغَنِّينَ وَٱلنَّثِينِيمَ، وَكُلِّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱنْفَصَلُوا مِنْ شُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي إِلَى شَرِيعَةِ ٱللهِ، وَنِسَائِهِمْ وَبَنِيهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ، كُلِّ أَصْحَابِ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ وَٱلْفَهْمِ،

And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the door-keepers, the music-makers, the Nethinim, and all those who had made themselves separate from the peoples of the lands, to keep the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, everyone who had knowledge and wisdom;

٢٩ 29 لَصِقُوا بِإِخْوَتِهِمْ وَعُظَمَائِهِمْ وَدَخَلُوا فِي قَسَمٍ وَحِلْفٍ أَنْ يَسِيرُوا فِي شَرِيعَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّتِي أُعْطِيَتْ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ ٱللهِ، وَأَنْ يَحْفَظُوا وَيَعْمَلُوا جَمِيعَ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ سَيِّدِنَا، وَأَحْكَامِهِ وَفَرَائِضِهِ،

They were united with their brothers, their rulers, and put themselves under a curse and an oath, to keep their steps in the way of God's law, which was given by Moses, the servant of God, and to keep and do all the orders of the Lord, our Lord, and his decisions and his rules;

٣٠ 30 وَأَنْ لَا نُعْطِيَ بَنَاتِنَا لِشُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَا نَأْخُذَ بَنَاتِهِمْ لِبَنِينَا.

And that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the lands, or take their daughters for our sons;

٣١ 31 وَشُعُوبُ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَأْتُونَ بِٱلْبَضَائِعِ وَكُلِّ طَعَامِ يَوْمِ ٱلسَّبْتِ لِلْبَيْعِ، لَا نَأْخُذُ مِنْهُمْ فِي سَبْتٍ وَلَا فِي يَوْمٍ مُقَدَّسٍ، وَأَنْ نَتْرُكَ ٱلسَّنَةَ ٱلسَّابِعَةَ، وَٱلْمُطَالَبَةَ بِكُلِّ دَيْنٍ.

And if the peoples of the lands come to do trade in goods or food on the Sabbath day, that we would do no trade with them on the Sabbath or on a holy day: and that in the seventh year we would take no payment from any debtor.

٣٢ 32 وَأَقَمْنَا عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا فَرَائِضَ: أَنْ نَجْعَلَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا ثُلْثَ شَاقِلٍ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ لِخِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا،

And we made rules for ourselves, taxing ourselves a third of a shekel every year for the upkeep of the house of our God;

٣٣ 33 لِخُبْزِ ٱلْوُجُوهِ وَٱلتَّقْدِمَةِ ٱلدَّائِمَةِ وَٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ ٱلدَّائِمَةِ وَٱلسُّبُوتِ وَٱلْأَهِلَّةِ وَٱلْمَوَاسِمِ وَٱلْأَقْدَاسِ وَذَبَائِحِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، لِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلِكُلِّ عَمَلِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا.

For the holy bread, and for the regular meal offering and the regular burned offering on the Sabbaths and at the new moon and the fixed feasts, and for the sin-offerings to take away the sin of Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God.

٣٤ 34 وَأَلْقَيْنَا قُرَعًا عَلَى قُرْبَانِ ٱلْحَطَبِ بَيْنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاَوِيِّينَ وَٱلشَّعْبِ، لِإِدْخَالِهِ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِنَا، فِي أَوْقَاتٍ مُعَيَّنَةٍ سَنَةً فَسَنَةً، لِأَجْلِ إِحْرَاقِهِ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ،

And we, the priests and the Levites and the people, made selection, by the decision of the Lord, of those who were to take the wood offering into the house of God, by families at the regular times, year by year, to be burned on the altar of the Lord our God, as it is recorded in the law;

٣٥ 35 وَلِإِدْخَالِ بَاكُورَاتِ أَرْضِنَا، وَبَاكُورَاتِ ثَمَرِ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ سَنَةً فَسَنَةً إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ،

And to take the first-fruits of our land, and the first-fruits of every sort of tree, year by year, into the house of the Lord;

٣٦ 36 وَأَبْكَارِ بَنِينَا وَبَهَائِمِنَا، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ، وَأَبْكَارِ بَقَرِنَا وَغَنَمِنَا لِإِحْضَارِهَا إِلَى بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا، إِلَى ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلْخَادِمِينَ فِي بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا.

As well as the first of our sons and of our cattle, as it is recorded in the law, and the first lambs of our herds and of our flocks, which are to be taken to the house of our God, to the priests who are servants in the house of our God:

٣٧ 37 وَأَنْ نَأْتِيَ بِأَوَائِلِ عَجِينِنَا وَرَفَائِعِنَا وَأَثْمَارِ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْخَمْرِ وَٱلزَّيْتِ إِلَى ٱلْكَهَنَةِ، إِلَى مَخَادِعِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا، وَبِعُشْرِ أَرْضِنَا إِلَى ٱللَّاَوِيِّينَ، وَٱللَّاَوِيُّونَ هُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُعَشِّرُونَ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِ فَلَاحَتِنَا.

And that we would take the first of our rough meal, and our lifted offerings, and the fruit of every sort of tree, and wine and oil, to the priests, to the rooms of the house of our God; and the tenth of the produce of our land to the Levites; for they, the Levites, take a tenth in all the towns of our ploughed land.

٣٨ 38 وَيَكُونُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱبْنُ هَارُونَ مَعَ ٱللَّاَوِيِّينَ حِينَ يُعَشِّرُ ٱللَّاَوِيُّونَ، وَيُصْعِدُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ عُشْرَ ٱلْأَعْشَارِ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا، إِلَى ٱلْمَخَادِعِ، إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلْخَزِينَةِ.

And the priest, the son of Aaron, is to be with the Levites, when the Levites take the tenths: and the Levites are to take a tenth of the tenths into the house of our God, to the rooms, into the store-house;

٣٩ 39 لِأَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَنِي لَاوِي يَأْتُونَ بِرَفِيعَةِ ٱلْقَمْحِ وَٱلْخَمْرِ وَٱلزَّيْتِ إِلَى ٱلْمَخَادِعِ، وَهُنَاكَ آنِيَةُ ٱلْقُدْسِ وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ ٱلْخَادِمُونَ وَٱلْبَوَّابُونَ وَٱلْمُغَنُّونَ، وَلَا نَتْرُكُ بَيْتَ إِلَهِنَا.

For the children of Israel and the children of Levi are to take the lifted offering of the grain and wine and oil into the rooms where the vessels of the holy place are, together with the priests and the door-keepers and the makers of music: and we will not give up caring for the house of our God.
