1 Chronicles 25
1 Further, David and the chiefs of the servants of the holy place made selection of certain of the sons of Asaph and of Heman and of Jeduthun for the work of prophets, to make melody with corded instruments and brass; and the number of the men for the work they had to do was:
Na Rawiri hoki, ratou ko nga rangatira ope, i wehe mo te mahi etahi o nga tama a Ahapa, a Hemana, a Ierutunu, hei poropiti i runga i te hapa, i te hatere, i te himipora. Na, ko te tokomaha o nga kaimahi, me ta ratou mahi koia tenei:
2 Of the sons of Asaph: Zaccur and Joseph and Nethaniah and Asharelah, sons of Asaph; under the direction of Asaph, acting as a prophet under the orders of the king;
No nga tama a Ahapa, ko Takuru, ko Hohepa, ko Netania, ko Atarera; ko te kaiwhakamahi mo nga tama a Ahapa, ko Ahapa; rite tahi ki ta te kingi tikanga tana poropiti.
3 Of Jeduthun: the six sons of Jeduthun, Gedaliah and Zeri and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah and Mattithiah; under the direction of their father Jeduthun who, acting as a prophet, with corded instruments gave praise and glory to the Lord.
Ko a Ierutunu: ko nga tama a Ierutunu; ko Keraria, ko Teri, ko Ihaia, ko Hahapia, ko Matitia, tokoono: ko to ratou papa ko Ierutunu to ratou kaiwhakamahi. I poropiti ia i runga i te hapa, i whakawhetai, i whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa.
4 Of Heman, the sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel and Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti and Romamti-ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, Mahazioth;
Ko a Hemana: ko nga tama a Hemana; ko Pukia, ko Matania, ko Utiere, ko Hepuere, ko Terimoto, ko Hanania, ko Hanani, ko Eriata, ko Kirarati, ko Romamatietere, ko Iohopekaha, ko Maroti, ko Hotiri, ko Mahatioto.
5 All these were sons of Heman, the king's seer in the words of God. And to make great his power God gave Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
Ko enei katoa he tama na Hemana matakite a te kingi, mo nga mea a te Atua, hei hapai i te haona. Na homai ana e te Atua ki a Hemana kotahi tekau ma wha nga tama, tokotoru nga tamahine.
6 All these, under the direction of their father, made music in the house of the Lord, with brass and corded instruments, for the worship of the house of God; Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman being under the orders of the king.
Ko enei katoa he mea whakamahi na to ratou papa ki te waiata i te whare o Ihowa i runga i nga himipora, i te hatere, i te hapa, hei mahi ki te whare o te Atua, hei pera ano me ta te kingi i ki ai ki a Ahapa, ki a Ierutunu, ki a Hemana.
7 And the number of them, with their brothers who were trained and expert in making melody to the Lord, was two hundred and eighty-eight.
Na, ko te tokomaha o ratou, o o ratou teina, i whakaakona ki nga waiata a Ihowa, ko te hunga mohio katoa, e rua rau e waru tekau ma waru.
8 And selection was made of them for their special work, all having equal chances, small as well as great, the teacher as the learner.
I maka rota ano ratou mo ta ratou e tiaki ai, te iti, te rahi, te kaiwhakaako raua ko te akonga.
