9 Also Bakbukiah and Unno, their brothers, were close to them according to their offices.

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.
Lévijevci v dneh Eljašíba, Jojadája, Johanána in Jadúa so bili zabeleženi vodje očetov, tudi duhovniki, do kraljevanja Perzijca Dareja.
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.
Lévijevi sinovi, vodje očetov so bili zapisani v kroniški knjigi, celo do dni Eljašíbovega sina Johanána.
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.
Vodje Lévijevcev: Hašabjá, Šerebjá in Kadmiélov sin Ješúa z njihovimi brati nasproti njih, da hvalijo in da se zahvaljujejo, glede na zapoved Davida, Božjega moža, straža nasproti straži.
25 Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers keeping the watch at the storehouses of the gates.
Matanjá in Bakbukjá, Obadjá, Mešulám, Talmón, Akúb so bili vratarji, ki so varovali stražo pri pragovih velikih vrat.
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.
Ti so bili v dneh Jojakíma, sina Ješúa, sinú Jocadákovega in v dneh voditelja Nehemija in preroka Ezra, pisarja.
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.
Ob posvetitvi jeruzalemskega obzidja so iskali Lévijevce iz vseh njihovih krajev, da jih privedejo v Jeruzalem, da ohranjajo posvetitev z veseljem, tako z zahvaljevanjem kakor s petjem, s cimbalami, plunkami in harfami.
28 The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain around Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites;
Sinovi pevcev so se zbrali skupaj, tako iz ravne dežele okoli Jeruzalema kakor iz vasi Netófčanov,
29 also from Beth Gilgal and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth, for the singers had built themselves villages around Jerusalem.
tudi iz hiše Gilgála in iz gebskih in azmávetskih polj, kajti pevcem so zgradili vasi okoli Jeruzalema.
30 The priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.
Duhovniki in Lévijevci so očistili sebe, očistili ljudstvo in velika vrata ter obzidje.
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;
Potem sem na obzidje privedel Judove prince in določil dve veliki skupini tistih, ki so dajali zahvalo, od katerih je ena odšla na desno roko, po obzidju, h Gnojnim velikim vratom.
32 and after them went Hoshaiah, with half of the princes of Judah,
Za njimi je odšel Hošajá in polovica Judovih princev
33 and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
Azarjá, Ezra, Mešulám,
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, Jeremiah,
Juda, Benjamin, Šemajá in Jeremija.
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;
Nekateri izmed duhovnikovih sinov s trobentami, namreč Zeharjá, sin Jonatana, sinú Šemajá, sinú Matanjá, sinú Mihajája, sinú Zahúrja, sinú Asáfa
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.
in njegovi bratje: Šemajá, Azarél, Milaláj, Gilaláj, Maáj, Netanél, Juda in Hananí z glasbenimi instrumenti Davida, Božjega moža in pisar Ezra pred njimi.
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.
Pri Studenčnih velikih vratih, ki so bila nasproti njim, so se po stopnicah Davidovega mesta povzpeli ob vzponu obzidja, nad Davidovo hišo, celo do Vodnih velikih vrat proti vzhodu.
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,
Druga skupina izmed tistih, ki so dajali zahvalo, pa je šla nasproti njim in jaz za njimi in polovica ljudstva na zidu od onstran stolpa talilnih peči, celo do širokega zidu
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.
in nad Efrájimovimi velikimi vrati, nad Starimi velikimi vrati, nad Ribjimi velikimi vrati in [mimo] stolpa Hananéla in stolpa Mea, torej do Ovčjih velikih vrat in so mirno obstali pri Jetniških velikih vratih.
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;
Tako sta stali dve skupini izmed tistih, ki so dajali zahvalo v Božji hiši ter jaz in polovica vladarjev z menoj
41 and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;
in duhovniki: Eljakím, Maasejája, Minjamín, Mihajá, Eljoenáj, Zeharjá in Hananjá s trobentami
42 and Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer. The singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.
ter Maasejája, Šemajá, Eleazar, Uzí, Johanán, Malkijája, Elám in Ecer. Pevci so glasno peli z Jizrahjájem, njihovim nadzornikom.
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.
Ta dan so darovali tudi veliko klavnih daritev in se veselili, kajti Bog jih je pripravil, da se veselijo z veliko radostjo. Tudi žene in otroci so se veselili, tako da je bilo veselje iz Jeruzalema slišati celo od daleč.
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.
Ob tistem času so bili nekateri določeni nad sobe za zaklade, za daritve, za prve sadove in za desetine, da zberejo vanje iz mestnih polj deleže od postave za duhovnike in Lévijevce, kajti Juda se je veselil zaradi duhovnikov in Lévijevcev, ki so čakali.
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.
Tako pevci kakor vratarji so varovali službo svojega Boga in službo očiščevanja, glede na zapoved Davida in njegovega sina Salomona.
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.
Kajti v dneh Davida in Asáfa, so bili tam od davnine vodje pevcev s pesmimi hvaljenja in zahvaljevanja Bogu.
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.
Ves Izrael je v dneh Zerubabéla in v dneh Nehemija dal deleže pevcem in vratarjem, vsak dan njegov delež. Svete stvari pa so posvetili Lévijevcem in Lévijevci so jih posvetili Aronovim otrokom.
