1 Chronicles 27

1 Now the number of the children of Israel, that is, the heads of families, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and the men in authority who were servants of the king in anything to do with the divisions which came in and went out month by month through all the months of the year, in every division were twenty-four thousand.

سپاه اسرائیل از افراد و رؤسای خاندانها و طایفه‌ها و بزرگان تشکیل یافته بود و شامل دوازده سپاه می‌شد. هر سپاه که متشکل از ۲۴٬۰۰۰ نفر بود، به نوبت، سالی یک ماه به خدمت فرا خوانده می‌شد. فرماندهان این سپاهیان، به ترتیب ماه خدمت، عبارت بودند از:

2 Over the first division for the first month was Ishbaal, the son of Zabdiel; and in his division were twenty-four thousand.

ماه اول: یشبعام، پسر زبدی‌ئیل، از طایفهٔ فارص؛

3 He was of the sons of Perez, and the chief of all the captains of the army for the first month.

4 And over the division for the second month was Eleazar, the son of Dodai the Ahohite, the ruler; and in his division were twenty-four thousand.

15 The twelfth captain for the twelfth month was Heldai the Netophathite, of Othniel; and in his division were twenty-four thousand.

16 And over the tribes of Israel: the ruler of the Reubenites was Eliezer, the son of Zichri; of the Simeonites, Shephatiah, the son of Maacah;

رؤسای قبیله‌های اسرائیل به شرح زیر بودند: العازار پسر زکری، رئیس قبیلهٔ رئوبین؛ شفطیا پسر معکه، رئیس قبیلهٔ شمعون؛ حشبیا پسر قموئیل، رئیس قبیلهٔ لاوی؛ صادوق، رئیس خاندان هارون؛ الیهو برادر داوود پادشاه، رئیس قبیلهٔ یهودا؛ عمری پسر میکائیل، رئیس قبیلهٔ یساکار؛ یشمعیا پسر عوبدیا، رئیس قبیلهٔ زبولون؛ یریموت پسر عزری‌ئیل، رئیس قبیلهٔ نفتالی؛ هوشع پسر عزریا، رئیس قبیلهٔ افرایم؛ یوئیل پسر فدایا، رئیس نصف قبیلهٔ منسی؛ یدو پسر زکریا، رئیس نصف دیگر قبیلهٔ منسی در جلعاد؛ یعسی‌ئیل پسر ابنیر، رئیس قبیله بنیامین؛ عزرئیل پسر یروحام، رئیس قبیلهٔ دان.

17 Of Levi, Hashabiah, the son of Kemuel; of Aaron, Zadok;

18 Of Judah, Elihu, one of the brothers of David; of Issachar, Omri, the son of Michael;

19 Of Zebulun, Ishmaiah, the son of Obadiah; of Naphtali, Jerimoth, the son of Azriel;

20 Of the children of Ephraim, Hoshea, the son of Azaziah; of the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joel, the son of Pedaiah;

21 Of the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo, the son of Zechariah; of Benjamin, Jaasiel, the son of Abner;

22 Of Dan, Azarel, the son of Jeroham. These were the captains of the tribes of Israel.

23 But David did not take the number of those who were under twenty years old, for the Lord had said that he would make Israel like the stars of heaven in number.

داوود هنگام سرشماری، جوانان بیست سال یا کمتر را به حساب نیاورد، زیرا خداوند وعده داده بود که جمعیت اسرائیل را مثل ستارگان آسمان بی‌شمار گرداند.

24 The numbering was started by Joab, the son of Zeruiah, but he did not go on to the end; and because of it, wrath came on Israel and the number was not recorded in the history of King David.

یوآب سرشماری را شروع کرد ولی آن را تمام نکرد، چون خشم خداوند بر اسرائیل افروخته شد. لذا آمار نهایی در سالنامهٔ داوود پادشاه ثبت نشد.

25 And Azmaveth, the son of Adiel, was controller of the king's property; Jonathan, the son of Uzziah, had control of all store-houses in country places and in the towns and little towns and strong places;

عزموت پسر عدی‌ئیل سرپرست انبارهای سلطنتی و یوناتان پسر عزیا سرپرست انبارهای شهرها و روستاها و قلعه‌ها بود.

26 Ezri, the son of Chelub, had authority over the field-workers and farmers;

عزری پسر کلوب، سرپرست کارگرانی بود که در املاک پادشاه کار می‌کردند.

27 Shimei the Ramathite was responsible for the vine-gardens; Zabdi the Shiphmite was responsible for the produce of the vine-gardens and for all the stores of wine;

شمعی راماتی بر باغهای انگور پادشاه نظارت می‌کرد. زبدی شفماتی مسئول تهیهٔ شراب و انبار کردن آن بود.

28 Baal-hanan the Gederite was responsible for the olive-trees and the sycamore-trees in the lowlands; and Joash for the stores of oil;

بعل حانان جدیری مسئول باغهای زیتون و درختان افراغ در دشتهای هم مرز کشور فلسطین بود. یوآش متصدی ذخیرهٔ روغن زیتون بود.

29 And Shitrai the Sharonite was responsible for the herds in the grass-lands of Sharon, and Shaphat, the son of Adlai, for those in the valleys;

شطرای شارونی در دشت شارون از رمه‌ها نگهداری می‌کرد، و شافاط پسر عدلائی مسئول نگهداری رمه‌هایی بود که در دره‌ها می‌چریدند.

30 Obil the Ishmaelite had control of the camels and Jehdeiah the Meronothite of the she-asses;

عوبیل اسماعیلی بر کار نگهداری شترها و یحدیای میرونوتی بر کار نگهداری الاغها نظارت می‌کردند.

31 The flocks were in the care of Jaziz the Hagarite. All these were the controllers of King David's property.

یازیز مسئول نگهداری گله‌ها بود. تمام این مردان ناظران دارایی داوود پادشاه بودند.

32 Now Jonathan, David's father's brother, expert in discussion, and a man of good sense, was a scribe; and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni, had the care of the king's sons;

یوناتان عموی داوود مشاوری دانا و عالم بود و یحی‌ئیل، پسر حکمونی از پسران پادشاه مواظبت می‌کرد.

33 And Ahithophel was the king's expert in discussion and Hushai the Archite was the king's friend.

اخیتوفل مشاور پادشاه و حوشای ارکی دوست پادشاه بود.

34 After Ahithophel was Jehoiada, the son of Benaiah, and Abiathar; and the captain of the king's army was Joab.

پس از اخیتوفل، یهویاداع (پسر بنایا) و اَبیّاتار به جای او مشاور شدند. فرماندهٔ سپاه اسرائیل یوآب بود.
