১ বংশাবলি 23
1 ১ যেতিয়া দায়ূদে বৃদ্ধ হৈ জীৱনৰ শেষ অৱস্থাত পালে, তেতিয়া তেওঁ তেওঁৰ পুত্ৰ চলোমনক ইস্ৰায়েলৰ ওপৰত ৰজা পাতিলে।
David was a very old man [DOU] when he appointed his son Solomon to be the next king.
David gathered the leaders of Israel and the priests and other descendants of Levi.
3 ৩ লেবীয়া সকলৰ ত্ৰিশ বছৰ আৰু তাৰ ওপৰৰ বয়সীয়া লোকসকলক গণনা কৰা হ’ল। তেওঁলোকৰ সংখ্যা আঠত্ৰিশ হাজাৰ আছিল।
He [commanded some of his officials to] count the descendants of Levi who were at least thirty years old, and they found out that there were 38,000 of them.
4 ৪ তেওঁলোকৰ মাজৰ চৌবিশ হাজাৰ লোকক যিহোৱাৰ গৃহৰ কাৰ্য কৰিবলৈ নিযুক্ত কৰা হ’ল আৰু ছয় হাজাৰ লোক কৰ্মচাৰী আৰু বিচাৰকৰ্ত্তা আছিল।
Then David said, “From those 38,000 men, I want 24,000 of them to supervise the work at the temple of Yahweh, and I want 6,000 of them to be officials and judges.
5 ৫ চাৰি হাজাৰ দুৱৰী আছিল; আৰু চাৰি হাজাৰ লোক বাদ্যযন্ত্ৰৰ সৈতে যিহোৱাৰ প্রশংসা কৰিবৰ বাবে আছিল; এই বিষয়ে দায়ূদে কৈছিল, “এইবোৰ মই আৰাধনা বাবে সাজিছোঁ”।
I want 4,000 to be guards at the gates, and 4,000 to praise Yahweh, using the musical instruments that I have provided for them.”
6 ৬ দায়ূদে তেওঁলোকক লেবীয়া সকলৰ লগত যোগাযোগ কৰিবলৈ বিভিন্ন দলত বিভক্ত কৰিলে: গেৰ্চোন, কহাৎ, আৰু মৰাৰী।
David divided the descendants of Levi into three family groups; each group consisted of men who were descendants of one of the three sons of Levi—Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
From the descendants of Gershon there were Ladan and Shimei.
There were three sons of Ladan: Jehiel was the oldest, and his [younger] brothers Zetham and Joel.
There were three of the sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran. They were all leaders of the clans of Ladan.
There were four men who were other sons of Shimei:
11 ১১ তেওঁলোকৰ মাজত যহৎ ডাঙৰ আছিল, আৰু দ্বিতীয় জীজা, কিন্তু যিয়ূচ আৰু বৰীয়াৰ অধিক সন্তান নাছিল সেয়ে তেওঁলোক একে কামৰ বাবে একে গোষ্ঠীৰ বুলি বিবেচনা কৰা হৈছিল।
Jahath, who was his oldest son, and his [younger] brothers Ziza, Jeush, and Beriah. Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they were counted as though they were one family.
Kohath had four sons: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
13 ১৩ অম্ৰমৰ পুত্ৰ আছিল: হাৰোণ আৰু মোচি। অতি পবিত্ৰ বস্তু যিহোৱাৰ সাক্ষাতে ধূপ জ্বলাই, তেওঁৰ পৰিচৰ্যা কৰিবলৈ, আৰু তেওঁৰ নামেৰে চিৰকাল আশীৰ্ব্বাদ কৰিবৰ বাবে, হাৰোণক আৰু তেওঁৰ বংশধৰ সকলক স্থায়ীভাৱে মনোনীত কৰা হ’ল।
There were two sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. Aaron and his descendants were set apart to dedicate the very holy things, to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, to serve in his presence, and to declare [to the people] what Yahweh [MTY] would do to bless them. They were to do those things forever.
The sons of Moses, the man who served God [well], were counted as part of the tribe of Levi.
The sons of Moses were Gershom and Eliezer.
The oldest son of Gershom was Shubael.
Rehabiah was the oldest son of Eliezer. Eliezer had no other sons, but Rehabiah had many sons.
The oldest son of Izhar was Shelomith.
Hebron had four sons. Jeriah was his oldest son, and his [younger] brothers were Amariah, Jahaziel, and Jekameam.
Uzziel had two sons. Micah was the oldest son, and his [younger] brother was Isshiah.
Merari had two sons: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli were Eleazar and Kish.
22 ২২ ইলীয়াজৰৰ পুত্ৰ নোহোৱাকৈয়ে মৃত্যু হয়, তেওঁৰ কেৱল কেইজনী মান জীয়েক আছিল। কীচৰ পুত্ৰসকলে তেওঁলোকক বিয়া কৰাইছিল।
Eleazar had no sons; he had only daughters. Their cousins, the sons of Kish, married them.
The three sons of Mushi were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth.
24 ২৪ এই লেবীয়াৰ বংশধৰ সকলে নিজৰ গোষ্ঠীৰ লগত যোগাযোগ কৰিছিল। তেওঁলোক নেতৃত্বত আছিল যাৰ নাম গণনা কৰা হৈছিল আৰু তালিকাত আছিল। যিহোৱাৰ গৃহৰ পৰিচৰ্যা কৰা গোষ্ঠীৰ লোকসকল বিশ বছৰ আৰু তাৰ ওপৰ বয়সৰ আছিল।
Those were the descendants of Levi, whose names were listed according to their families/clans. They were chosen for special jobs by (casting lots/throwing small marked stones). Each person who was at least 20 years old was listed. They all worked in the temple of Yahweh.
25 ২৫ কাৰণ দায়ূদে কৈছিল, “ইস্রায়েলৰ ঈশ্বৰ যিহোৱাই, তেওঁৰ লোকসকলক বিশ্ৰাম দিলে, তেওঁ সদাকালৰ বাবে নিজৰ গৃহ যিৰূচালেমত নিৰ্ম্মাণ কৰিলে।
David had said previously, “Yahweh, the God to whom we Israeli people belong, has enabled us to have peace, and he [has come to] live in Jerusalem forever.
Therefore, the descendants of Levi no longer need to carry the Sacred Tent and the items used in the work there.”
Obeying the final instructions of David [before he died, instructions for doing this work at the temple], they counted only the descendants of Levi who were at least 20 years old.
28 ২৮ তেওঁলোকে যিহোৱাৰ গৃহৰ পৰিচৰ্যাৰ বাবে হাৰোণৰ বংশধৰ সকলৰ সহায়কাৰী আছিল। তেওঁলোক চোতাল কেইখন, কোঁঠালিবোৰ, সকলো পবিত্ৰ বস্তু শুচি কৰা আৰু ঈশ্বৰৰ গৃহৰ আন সকলো কামৰ তত্বাৱধান কৰিছিল।
The work of those descendants of Levi was to assist the descendants of Aaron in their work in the temple of Yahweh: To be in charge of the temple courtyards and the side rooms, the ceremonies for purifying all the sacred things, and to do other work at the temple.
29 ২৯ তেওঁলোকে দৰ্শন-পিঠা, শষ্য উৎসৰ্গৰ বাবে মিহি আটাগুড়ি, খমিৰ নিদিয়া পিঠা, তাৱাত সেক দিয়া পিঠা, তেলত মিহলোৱা, আৰু সকলো জোখ আৰু পৰিমান চোৱাৰ তত্বাৱধানত আছিল।
They were also in charge of the sacred loaves of bread that were placed [each week] on the table [in the temple], the flour for the grain offerings, the wafers that were made without yeast, and the measuring the ingredients and mixing them and baking that bread and those wafers.
They were also told to stand every morning [at the temple] and thank Yahweh and praise him. They were also required to do the same thing every evening.
31 ৩১ আৰু যিহোৱাৰ উদ্দেশে প্রতিদিনে বিধানৰ মতে, লেখ অনুসাৰে বিশ্ৰাম-বাৰত, আৰু ন-জোন উৎসৱত আৰু নিৰূপিত পৰ্ব্বতত যিহোৱাৰ উদ্দেশে হোম-বলি উৎসৰ্গ কৰিছিল।
And they were to do the same thing whenever offerings that were to be completely burned [on the altar] were presented/offered to Yahweh on Sabbath days and during the new moon celebrations and other religious festivals. They were told how many of them should be there and what they should do each time.
32 ৩২ তেওঁলোকে সাক্ষাৎ কৰা তম্বুৰ আৰু পবিত্ৰ স্থানৰ দ্বয়ীত্বত আছিল, আৰু যিহোৱাৰ গৃহৰ পৰিচৰ্যা কাৰ্যত হাৰোণৰ বংশধৰ সকলকো সহায় কৰিছিল।
So the descendants of Levi did the work that was assigned to them by their fellow Israelis who were descendants of Aaron. They did that work in the area surrounding the Sacred Tent, and in the Sacred Tent, and [later] at the temple.
