22 Jotend miech jo-Lawi e ndalo mar Eliashib; Joyada, Johanan kod Jadua, kaachiel gi joma ne jodolo, nondik nying-gi e kinde loch mar Darius ruodh Pasia.

The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were recorded heads of fathers' houses; also the priests, in the reign of Darius the Persian.

23 Jotend mier mane ni e dier nyikwa Lawi nyaka e ndalo mar Johanan wuod Eliashib nondik nying-gi e kitap weche mag ndalo.

The sons of Levi, heads of fathers' houses, were written in the book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.

24 To jotend jo-Lawi ne gin: Hashabia, Sherebia, Jeshua wuod Kadmiel, kod jotich kaachiel kodgi, mane ochungʼ ka ngʼiyore ka gipako Nyasaye kendo gidwokone erokamano ka jomoko omo wer to jomoko olo mana kaka Daudi ngʼat Nyasaye nondiko.

And the chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise and give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, ward against ward.

25 Matania, Bakbukia, Obadia, Meshulam, Talmon kod Akub ne gin jorit dhorangeye ma bende ne ngʼiyo kuonde keno man yo rangach.

Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were porters keeping the ward at the store-houses of the gates.

26 Negitiyo e ndalo Joyakim wuod Jeshua, wuod Jozadak, to kendo e ndalo jatelo Nehemia kod Ezra ma jadolo kendo jandiko.

These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest the scribe.

27 E sa mane igwedho ohinga mar Jerusalem, jo-Lawi nowal oa kama negidakie mine okelgi Jerusalem mondo gitim nyasi gi mor mogundho gi wende mag erokamano kendo ka gigoyo ongengʼo, nyatiti kod orutu.

And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps.

28 Jower bende nokel kanyakla koa e gwenge machiegni gi Jerusalem kaka miech jo-Netofath,

And the sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the Plain round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites;

29 Beth Gilgal, kod e gwengʼ Geba gi Azmaveth, nimar jower nosegero miechgi giwegi machiegni gi Jerusalem.

also from Beth-gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth; for the singers had builded them villages round about Jerusalem.

30 Ka jodolo gi jo-Lawi nosepwodhore maler kaka chik dwaro, ne gipwodho ji, dhorangeye, to gi ohinga.

And the priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.

31 Ne akelo jotend Juda nyaka ewi ohinga. Bende ne ayiero migepe ariyo madongo mag jower mondo odwok erokamano ni Nyasaye. Achiel kuomgi ne ochungʼ ewi ohinga korachwich, kochiko kama iluongo ni Dhoranga Owuoyo.

Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two great companies that gave thanks and went in procession: on the right hand upon the wall toward the dung gate;

32 Hoshaya kod nus mar jotend Juda noluwogi,

and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah;

33 kaachiel gi Azaria, Ezra, Meshulam,

and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34 Juda, Benjamin, Shemaya, Jeremia,

Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah;

35 kaachiel gi jodolo moko man-gi turumbete, kod Zekaria wuod Jonathan, wuod Shemaya, wuod Matania, wuod Mikaya, wuod Zakur, wuod Asaf,

and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph;

36 kod jotich kaachiel kode kaka: Shemaya, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Juda kod Hanani ka gin-gi thumbe migoyo mane olos gi Daudi ka giluwo kor ohinga mi gikadho ewi od Daudi ngʼat Nyasaye. Ezra ma jandiko notelonegi.

and his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them;

37 E Ranga Soko negidhi nyime wangʼ achiel ka giidho raidhi mar Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi ka giluwo kor ohinga mi gikadho ewi od Daudi nyaka e Dhoranga Pi mantiere yo wuok chiengʼ.

and by the fountain gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall, above the house of David, even unto the water gate eastward.

38 Migawo mar jower mar ariyo nowuotho kochiko komachielo. Ne aluwogi nyaka ewi ohinga malo, kaachiel gi nus mar ji ka gikalo kama Oger Motingʼore gi Malo mar Kendo mag Mach nyaka e Ohinga Malach,

And the other company of them that gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people, upon the wall, above the tower of the furnaces, even unto the broad wall;

39 negikadho Ranga Efraim, Ranga Jeshana, Ranga Rech, Kama Otingʼore gi Malo mar Hananel kod Kama Otingʼore gi Malo ma Mia Achiel nyaka ochopo Ranga Rombe. Negichungo e Ranga Od jarito.

and above the gate of Ephraim, and by the gate of the old city and by the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even unto the sheep gate; and they stood still in the gate of the guard.

40 Bangʼ ka migepe ariyo mar jowergo nosedwoko erokamano ni Nyasaye; negikawo keregi e od Nyasaye, eka an bende kamano kaachiel gi nus mar jotelo,

So stood the two companies of them that gave thanks in the house of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me;

41 gi jodolo kaka, Eliakim, Maseya, Miniamin, Mikaya, Elioenai, Zekaria gi Hanania ka gin kod turumbete mag-gi.

and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;

42 Bende ne nitiere Maseya, Shemaya, Eliazar, Uzi, Jehohanan, Malkija, Elam kod Ezer. Jower nower kotelnegi gi Jezrahia.

and Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.

43 To e odiechiengno negichiwo misango maduongʼ ka gimor nikech Nyasaye ne osemiyogi mor maduongʼ. Mon kod nyithindo bende ne mor. Koko mar mor mane ni e Jerusalem ne inyalo winjo gi kuma bor.

And they offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced; for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women also and the children rejoiced; so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

44 E sechego ji noyier mondo orit kuonde keno mag chiwruok, olembe mokwongo kod achiel kuom apar. Ne puothe machiegni gi mier matindo, negikelo e od keno bath gigo midwaro kuom Chik ne jodolo kod jo-Lawi, nimar Juda ne mor gi puonj mar jodolo gi jo-Lawi.

And on that day were men appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the heave-offerings, for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, according to the fields of the cities, the portions appointed by the law for the priests and Levites; for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that took their stations.

45 Negitiyo tich Nyasachgi kod tich mar pwodhruok, mana kaka jower gi jorit Rangeye notimo, kaluwore gi chike mag Daudi kod wuode Solomon.

And they kept the ward of their God, and the ward of the purification, and so did the singers and the porters, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.

46 E ndalo mar Daudi kod Asaf ema ne telone wende mag pak kod mag goyo erokamano ni Nyasaye nochakore.

For in the days of David and Asaph of old there were chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto God.

47 Kendo e ndalo Zerubabel gi Nehemia, jo-Israel duto nochako kelo pok mapile pile ni jower kod jorit dhorangeye. Bende negiketo tenge pok ni jo-Lawi mamoko, to jo-Lawi bende nomiyo nyikwa Harun pokgi.

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, as every day required; and they hallowed for the Levites; and the Levites hallowed for the sons of Aaron.
