1 Chronicles 24
1 These were the divisions of the descendants of Aaron. The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Sɛdeɛ wɔkyekyɛɛ Aaron asefoɔ a wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ no mu akuakuo ma wɔsomeeɛ no nie: Na Aaron mmammarima no yɛ Nadab, Abihu, Eleasa ne Itamar.
2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did, and they had no sons; so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
Nanso, Nadab ne Abihu wuiɛ a wɔnni mma ansa na wɔn agya rewu. Enti, ɛkaa Eleasa ne Itamar nko ara a na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ.
3 With the help of Eleazar’s descendant Zadok and Ithamar’s descendant Ahimelech, David divided them according to the offices of their service.
Mmoa a Sadok a na ɔyɛ Eleasa aseni ne Ahimelek a na ɔyɛ Itamar aseni no boaa no enti, Dawid kyekyɛɛ Aaron asefoɔ mu akuakuo sɛdeɛ wɔn dwumadie teɛ.
4 Since more leaders were found among Eleazar’s descendants than those of Ithamar, they were divided accordingly. There were sixteen heads of families from the descendants of Eleazar and eight from the descendants of Ithamar.
Wɔkyɛɛ Itamar deɛ mu akuo nwɔtwe, ɛfiri sɛ, na Eleasa asefoɔ mu mmusua mpanimfoɔ no dɔɔso.
5 Thus they were divided by lot, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God among both Eleazar’s and Ithamar’s descendants.
Wɔnam ntontobɔ kronkron so, kyekyɛɛ dwumadie ahodoɔ nyinaa maa akuakuo no, sɛdeɛ ɛrenyɛ nhwɛanimsɛm biara. Ɛfiri sɛ, na mpanimfoɔ bebree a wɔfata sɛ wɔsom Onyankopɔn kronkronbea hɔ a wɔyɛ Eleasa ne Itamar asefoɔ no nso wɔ hɔ.
6 The scribe, Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, recorded their names in the presence of the king and of the officers: Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the heads of families of the priests and the Levites—one family being taken from Eleazar, and then one from Ithamar.
Netanel babarima Semaia a na ɔyɛ Lewini no yɛɛ adwuma sɛ ɔtwerɛfoɔ. Ɔtwerɛɛ din ne nnwuma ahodoɔ wɔ ɔhene no ne ɔsɔfoɔ Sadok ne Abiatar babarima Ahimelek ne asɔfoɔ no ne Lewi mmusua no mpanimfoɔ anim. Eleasa ne Itamar asefoɔ bobɔɔ ntonto sɛdeɛ ɛdidi soɔ yi:

Ntonto a ɛtɔ so dunson no bɔɔ Hesir. Ntonto a ɛtɔ so dunwɔtwe no bɔɔ Hapises.
16 the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezkel,
Ntonto a ɛtɔ so dunkron no bɔɔ Petahia. Ntonto a ɛtɔ so aduonu no bɔɔ Yeheskel.
17 the twenty-first to Jachin, the twenty-second to Gamul,
Ntonto a ɛtɔ so aduonu baako no bɔɔ Yakin. Ntonto a ɛtɔ so aduonu mmienu no bɔɔ Gamul.
18 the twenty-third to Delaiah, and the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.
Ntonto a ɛtɔ so aduonu mmiɛnsa no bɔɔ Delaia. Ntonto a ɛtɔ so aduonu ɛnan no bɔɔ Maasia.
19 This was their appointed order for service when they entered the house of the LORD, according to the regulations prescribed for them by their forefather Aaron, as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded him.
Ekuo biara dii ne dwuma wɔ Awurade fie sɛdeɛ wɔn agya Aaron nam Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn akwankyerɛ so hyehyɛ maa wɔn no.
20 Now these were the remaining descendants of Levi: From the sons of Amram: Shubael; from the sons of Shubael: Jehdeiah.
Yeinom ne mmusua a aka a wɔyɛ Lewi asefoɔ no mpanimfoɔ: Amram asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Subael. Subael asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Yehdeia.
21 As for Rehabiah, from his sons: The first was Isshiah.

22 From the Izharites: Shelomoth; from the sons of Shelomoth: Jahath.
Yishar asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Selomot. Selomot asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Yahat.
23 From the sons of Hebron: Jeriah was the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.

26 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The son of Jaaziah: Beno.
Merari asefoɔ ntuanofoɔ ne Mahli ne Musi. Yasia asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Beno.
27 The descendants of Merari from Jaaziah: Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri.
Merari asefoɔ a wɔfiri Yasia mu no, ntuanofoɔ no ne: Beno, Soham, Sakur ne Ibri.
28 From Mahli: Eleazar, who had no sons.
Mahli asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Eleasa a na ɔnni mmammarima no.
29 From Kish: Jerahmeel the son of Kish.
Kis asefoɔ ntuanoni ne Yerahmeel.
30 And the sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites, according to their families.
Musi asefoɔ ntuanofoɔ ne Mahli, Eder ne Yerimot. Yeinom ne Lewi asefoɔ ne sɛdeɛ wɔn mmusua teɛ.
31 As their brothers the descendants of Aaron did, they also cast lots in the presence of King David and of Zadok, Ahimelech, and the heads of the families of the priests and Levites—the family heads and their younger brothers alike.
Wɔnam ntonto kronkron a wɔbɔɔ wɔ wɔn so na wɔde wɔn nnwuma hyɛɛ wɔn nsa te sɛ Aaron asefoɔ deɛ no, a wɔanhwɛ mfeɛ a wɔadi ne wɔn diberɛ. Wɔdii dwuma no wɔ ɔhene Dawid, Sadok, Ahimelek, asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ mmusua mpanimfoɔ no anim.
