< 歷代志上 24 >
1 [司祭班次]亞郎的子孫也有他們的班次。亞郎的兒子:納達布、阿彼胡、厄肋阿匝爾和依塔瑪爾。
And the courses of the sons of Aaron were these. The sons of Aaron: Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
2 納達布和阿彼胡在他們父親以前死了,又沒有兒子,所以厄肋阿匝爾和依塔瑪爾作了司祭。
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children; therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
3 達味和厄肋阿匝爾的後裔匝多克,並依塔瑪爾的後裔阿希默肋客,將他們的同族兄弟分開班次,按班次服役。
And David with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to their ordering in their service.
4 以後發現厄肋阿匝爾的子孫中為首領的人,多於依塔瑪爾的子孫,遂將他們如此劃分:厄肋阿匝爾的後裔中族長十六人,依塔瑪爾的後裔中族長八人,
And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and thus were they divided: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen, heads of fathers' houses; and of the sons of Ithamar, according to their fathers' houses, eight.
5 以抽籤方式將他們分開,彼此同列,因為在厄肋阿匝爾子孫中和依塔瑪爾子孫中,都有在聖所作首領和天主面前作首領的。
Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for they were princes of the sanctuary and princes of God, both of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
6 肋未人乃塔乃耳的兒子舍瑪雅書記在君王、首領、司祭匝多克、厄彼雅塔爾的兒子阿希默肋客和眾司悸及肋未族長前登記:一籤為厄肋阿匝爾家族,一籤為依塔瑪爾家族。
And Shemaiah the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was of the Levites, wrote them in the presence of the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the priests and of the Levites: one father's house being taken for Eleazar, and proportionately for Ithamar.
Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah;
the third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim;
the fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin;
the seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah;
the ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah;
the eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim;
the thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab;
the fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer;
the seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Happizzez;
the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezkel;
the one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul;
the three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah.
19 這就是他們進入上主殿內,按照上主以色列的天主吩咐他們祖先亞郎所制定的規律,供職的班次。[肋未班次補遺]
These were the orderings of them in their service, to come into the house of the LORD according to the ordinance given unto them by the hand of Aaron their father, as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded him.
20 肋未的其餘後裔中,有阿默蘭的子孫叔巴耳;叔巴耳的子孫中,有耶赫狄雅。

30 慕史的兒子:瑪赫里、厄德爾和耶黎摩特。這些人按照他們的家族,都是肋末的後裔。
And the sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites after their fathers' houses.
31 他們在達味君王與匝多克、阿希默肋客,並司祭及肋末人的族長面前,像他們的弟兄亞郎的子孫,族長與年幼的兄弟,都一樣抽了籤。
These likewise cast lots even as their brethren the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the priests and of the Levites; the fathers' houses of the chief even as those of his younger brother.
