1 Chronicles 24
1 Now the divisions into which the sons of Aaron were grouped were these: the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Tala bituka ya bana mibali ya Aron: Nadabi, Abiyu, Eleazari mpe Itamari.
2 But Nadab and Abihu came to their end before their father, and had no children; so Eleazar and Ithamar did the work of priests.
Nadabi mpe Abiyu bakufaki liboso ya tata na bango mpe batikalaki kobota te. Eleazari mpe Itamari basalaki mosala na bango ya bonganga-Nzambe.
3 And David, with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, made distribution of them into their positions for their work.
Tala ndenge Davidi akabolaki bango kolanda misala oyo bapesaki bango: Tsadoki, na etuka ya Eleazari; Ayimeleki, na etuka ya Itamari.
4 And there were more chiefs among the sons of Eleazar than among the sons of Ithamar; and this is how they were grouped: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen, all heads of families; and of the sons of Ithamar, heads of families, there were eight.
Bamonaki ete kati na bakitani ya Eleazari, bana mibali bazalaki ebele koleka bato oyo bazalaki kati na bakitani ya Itamari. Boye, bakabolaki bana mibali ya Eleazari lokola bakonzi ya mabota zomi na motoba mpe bana mibali ya Itamari lokola bakonzi ya mabota mwambe.
5 So they were put into groups, by the Lord's decision, one with another; for there were rulers of the holy place and rulers of the house of God among the sons of Eleazar and the sons of Ithamar.
Babetaki zeke mpo na kokabola bango, pamba te kati na bakitani ya Eleazari mpe ya Itamari, ezalaki na bakambi ya Esika ya bule mpe bakambi ya mosala ya Nzambe.
6 And Shemaiah, the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was a Levite, put down their names in writing, the king being present with the rulers, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, and the heads of families of the priests and the Levites; one family being taken for Eleazar and then one for Ithamar, and so on.
Shemaya, mokomi mikanda, mwana mobali ya Netaneeli, na libota ya Levi, akomaki bakombo na bango na miso ya mokonzi, ya bakambi, ya Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, ya Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Abiatari; mpe ya bakambi ya mabota ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi. Babetaki zeke mbala mibale mpo na etuka ya Eleazari, mpe mbala moko, mpo na etuka ya Itamari.
7 Now the first name to come out was that of Jehoiarib; the second Jedaiah,
Tala ndenge bakambi ya mabota baponamaki na nzela ya zeke: zeke ya liboso ekweyaki epai ya Yeoyaribi; zeke ya mibale ekweyaki epai ya Yedaeya;

zeke ya tuku mibale na moko ekweyaki epai ya Yakini; zeke ya tuku mibale na mibale ekweyaki epai ya Gamuli;
18 The twenty-third Delaiah, the twenty-fourth Maaziah.
zeke ya tuku mibale na misato ekweyaki epai ya Delaya; zeke ya tuku mibale na minei ekweyaki epai ya Maazia.
19 So they were put into their different groups, to take their places in the house of the Lord, in agreement with the rules made by Aaron their father, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had given him orders.
Ezalaki ndenge wana nde bakabolaki bango mpe bazalaki kolandana kati na mosala mpo na kokota kati na Tempelo ya Yawe. Bazalaki kosala misala na bango kolanda mibeko oyo tata na bango, Aron, apesaki bango, mpe ndenge Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, atindaki ye.
20 And of the rest of the sons of Levi: of the sons of Amram, Shubael; of the sons of Shubael, Jehdeiah.
Tala bakitani mosusu ya Levi oyo bazalaki bakambi ya bituka: Shubaeli, mpo na etuka ya Amirami; Yedeya, mpo na etuka ya Shubaeli;

30 And the sons of Mushi: Mahli and Eder and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites by their families.
Bana mibali ya Mushi: Maali, Ederi mpe Yerimoti. Bango wana nde bazalaki bakitani ya Levi kolanda bituka na bango.
31 Selection was made of these in the same way as of their brothers the sons of Aaron, David the king being present, with Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites; the families of the chief in the same way as those of his younger brother.
Bango mpe babetaki zeke lokola bandeko na bango ya mibali, bakitani ya Aron, na miso ya mokonzi Davidi, ya Tsadoki, ya Ayimeleki, ya bakambi ya mabota ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya Balevi. Boye bazalaki komona mabota nyonso ndenge moko, ezala libota ya kulutu to ya leki.
