8 Moreover the Levites were Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who was over the thanksgiving songs, he and his brothers.
またレビ人はヱシユア、ビンヌイ、カデミエル、セレビヤ、ユダ、マツタニヤ、マツタニヤはその兄弟とともに感謝の事を掌どれり
9 Also Bakbukiah and Unno, their brothers, were close to them according to their offices.
またその兄弟バクブキヤおよびウンノ之と相對ひて職務をなせり
10 Jeshua became the father of Joiakim, and Joiakim became the father of Eliashib, and Eliashib became the father of Joiada,
ヱシユア、ヨアキムを生みヨアキム、エリアシブを生みエリアシブ、ヨイアダを生み
11 and Joiada became the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan became the father of Jaddua.
ヨイアダ、ヨナタンを生みヨナタン、ヤドアを生り
12 In the days of Joiakim were priests, heads of fathers’ households: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

22 As for the Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan, and Jaddua, there were recorded the heads of fathers’ households; also the priests, in the reign of Darius the Persian.
エリアシブ、ヨイアダ、ヨハナンおよびヤドアの日にレビ人の宗家の長等冊に録さる亦ペルシヤ王ダリヨスの治世に祭司等も然せらる
23 The sons of Levi, heads of fathers’ households, were written in the book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.
宗家の長たるレビ人はエリアシブの子ヨハナンの日まで凡て歴代志の書に記さる
24 The chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers close to them, to praise and give thanks according to the commandment of David the man of God, section next to section.
レビ人の長はハシヤビヤ、セレビヤおよびカデミエルの子ヱシユアなりその兄弟等これと相對ひて居る即ち彼らは班列と班列とあひむかひ居り神の人ダビデの命令に本づきて讃美と感謝とをつとむ
25 Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers keeping the watch at the storehouses of the gates.
マツタニヤ、バクブキヤ、オバデヤ、メシユラム、タルモン、アツクブは門を守る者にして門の内の府庫を伺ひ守れり
26 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 and scribe.
是等はヨザダクの子ヱシユアの子ヨアキムの日に在り總督ネヘミヤおよび學士たる祭司エズラの日に在りし者なり
27 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 giving thanks and with singing, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and with harps.
ヱルサレムの石垣の落成せし節會に當りてレビ人をその一切の處より招きてヱルサレムに來らせ感謝と歌と鐃鈸と瑟と琴とをもて歓喜を盡してその落成の節會を行はんとす
28 The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain around Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites;
是において謳歌ふ徒輩ヱルサレムの周圍の窪地およびネトパ人の村々より集り來り
29 also from Beth Gilgal and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth, for the singers had built themselves villages around Jerusalem.
またベテギルガルおよびゲバとアズマウテとの野より集り來れりこの謳歌者等はヱルサレムの周圍に己の村々を建たりき
30 The priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.
茲に祭司およびレビ人身を潔めまた民および諸の門と石垣とを潔めければ
31 Then I brought the princes of Judah up on the wall, and appointed two great companies who gave thanks and went in procession. One went on the right hand on the wall toward the dung gate;
我すなはちユダの牧伯等をして石垣の上に上らしめ又二の大なる隊を作り設けて之に感謝の詞を唱へて並進ましむ即ちその一は糞の門を指て石垣の上を右に進めり
32 and after them went Hoshaiah, with half of the princes of Judah,
その後につきて進める者はホシヤヤおよびユダの牧伯の半
33 and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
ならびにアザリヤ、エズラ、メシユラム
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, Jeremiah,
ユダ、ベニヤミン、シマヤ、ヱレミヤなりき
35 and some 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;
又祭司の徒數人喇叭を吹て伴ふあり即ちヨナタンの子ゼカリヤ、ヨナタンはシマヤの子シマヤはマツタニヤの子マツタニヤはミカヤの子ミカヤはザツクルの子ザツクルはアサフの子なり
36 and his brothers, Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them.
またゼカリヤの兄弟シマヤ、アザリエル、ミラライ、ギラライ、マアイ、ネタンエル、ユダ、ハナニ等ありて神の人ダビデの樂器を執り學士エズラこれに先だつ
37 By the spring gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of David’s city, at the ascent of the wall, above David’s house, even to the water gate eastward.
而して彼ら泉の門を經ただちに進みて石垣の上口に於てダビデの城の段階より登りダビデの家の上を過て東の方水の門に至れり
38 The other company of those who gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people on the wall above the tower of the furnaces, even to the wide wall,
また今一隊の感謝する者は彼らに對ひて進み我は民の半とともにその後に從がへり而して皆石垣の上を行き爐戌樓の上を過て石垣の廣き處にいたり
39 and above the gate of Ephraim, and by the old gate, and by the fish gate, the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even to the sheep gate; and they stood still in the gate of the guard.
エフライムの門の上を通り舊門を過ぎ魚の門およびハナニエルの戌樓とハンメアの戌樓を過て羊の門に至り牢の門に立どまれり
40 So the two companies of those who gave thanks in God’s house stood, and I and the half of the rulers with me;
かくて二隊の感謝する者神の室にいりて立り我もそこにたち牧伯等の半われと偕にありき
41 and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;
また祭司エリアキム、マアセヤ、ミニヤミン、ミカヤ、エリヨエナイ、ゼカリヤ、ハナニヤ等喇叭を執て居り
42 and Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer. The singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.
マアセヤ、シマヤ、エレアザル、ウジ、ヨナハン、マルキヤ、エラム、エゼル之と偕にあり謳歌ふ者聲高くうたへりヱズラヒヤはその監督なりき
43 They offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced, for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women and the children also rejoiced, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even far away.
斯してその日みな大なる犠牲を献げて喜悦を盡せり其は神かれらをして大に喜こび樂ませたまひたればなり婦女小兒までも喜悦り是をもてヱルサレムの喜悦の聲とほくまで聞えわたりぬ
44 On that day, men were appointed over the rooms for the treasures, for the wave 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 who served.
その日府庫のすべての室を掌どるべき人々を撰びて擧祭の品初物および什一など律法に定むるところの祭司とレビ人との分を邑々の田圃に准ひて取あつめてすべての室にいるることを掌どらしむ是は祭司およびレビ人の立て奉ふるをユダ人喜こびたればなり
45 They performed the duty of their God and the duty of the purification, and so did the singers and the gatekeepers, according to the commandment of David and of Solomon his son.
彼らは神の職守および潔齋の職守を勤む謳歌者および門を守る者も然り皆ダビデとその子ソロモンの命令に依る
46 For in the days of David and Asaph of old there was a chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.
在昔ダビデおよびアサフの日には謳歌者の長一人ありて神に讃美感謝をたてまつる事ありき
47 All Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah gave the portions of the singers and the gatekeepers, as every day required; and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.
またゼルバベルの日およびネヘミヤの日にはイスラエル人みな謳歌者と門を守る者に日々の分を與へまたレビ人に物を聖別て與へレビ人またこれを聖別てアロンの子孫に與ふ
