8 And the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who was over the music-makers, he and his brothers.
Dari orang-orang Lewi: Yesua, Binui, Kadmiel, Serebya, Yehuda dan Matanya. Matanya ini dan saudara-saudaranya memimpin nyanyian syukur,
9 And Bakbukiah and Unno, their brothers, were opposite them in their watches.
sementara Bakbukya dan Uni dan saudara-saudara mereka berdiri di hadapan mereka itu menurut kelompok-kelompok tugas.
10 And Jeshua was the father of Joiakim, and Joiakim was the father of Eliashib, and Eliashib was the father of Joiada,
Yesua memperanakkan Yoyakim, dan Yoyakim memperanakkan Elyasib, dan Elyasib memperanakkan Yoyada,
11 And Joiada was the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan was the father of Jaddua.
dan Yoyada memperanakkan Yonatan, dan Yonatan memperanakkan Yadua.
12 And in the days of Joiakim there were priests, heads of families: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;
Pada zaman Yoyakim yang menjadi imam adalah kepala-kepala kaum keluarga ini: Meraya, dari kaum keluarga Seraya, Hananya dari kaum keluarga Yeremia,
13 Of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan;

20 Of Sallai, Kallai; of Amok, Eber;
Kalai dari kaum keluarga Salai, Heber dari kaum keluarga Amok,
21 Of Hilkiah, Hashabiah; of Jedaiah, Nethanel.
Hasabya dari kaum keluarga Hilkia dan Netaneel dari kaum keluarga Yedaya.
22 The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were listed as heads of families; and the priests, when Darius the Persian was king.
Tentang orang-orang Lewi, para kepala kaum keluarga mereka tercatat pada zaman Elyasib, Yoyada, Yohanan dan Yadua, sedang para imam tercatat sampai pemerintahan Darius, orang Persia itu.
23 The sons of Levi, heads of families, were recorded in the book of the histories, even till the days of Johanan, the son of Eliashib.
Kepala-kepala kaum keluarga anak-anak Lewi tercatat dalam kitab sejarah sampai zaman Yohanan bin Elyasib.
24 And the chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua, the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers opposite them, to give blessing and praise as ordered by David, the man of God, watch against watch.
Inilah para kepala orang-orang Lewi: Hasabya, Serebya, Yesua bin Kadmiel, dan saudara-saudara mereka yang berdiri di hadapan mereka untuk menyanyikan puji-pujian dan syukur sesuai dengan perintah Daud, abdi Allah itu, kelompok di samping kelompok.
25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were door-keepers keeping the watch at the store-houses of the doors.
Matanya, Bakbukya, Obaja, Mesulam, Talmon dan Akub adalah penunggu-penunggu pintu gerbang yang mengadakan penjagaan di gudang-gudang perlengkapan pada pintu-pintu gerbang.
26 These were in the days of Joiakim, the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the ruler and of Ezra the priest, the scribe.
Mereka itu hidup pada zaman Yoyakim bin Yesua bin Yozadak dan pada zaman bupati Nehemia dan imam Ezra, ahli kitab itu.
27 And when the time came for the wall of Jerusalem to be made holy, they sent for the Levites out of all their places to come to Jerusalem, to keep the feast with joy, and with praise and melody, with brass and corded instruments of music.
Pada pentahbisan tembok Yerusalem orang-orang Lewi dipanggil dari segala tempat mereka dan dibawa ke Yerusalem untuk mengadakan pentahbisan yang meriah dengan ucapan syukur dan kidung, dengan ceracap, gambus dan kecapi.
28 And the sons of the music-makers came together from the lowland round about Jerusalem and from the daughter-towns of the Netophathites,
Maka berkumpullah kaum penyanyi dari daerah sekitar Yerusalem, dari desa-desa orang Netofa,
29 And from Beth-gilgal and from the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the music-makers had made daughter-towns for themselves round about Jerusalem.
dari Bet-Gilgal, dari padang Geba dan Asmawet, karena para penyanyi itu telah mendirikan desa-desa sekitar Yerusalem.
30 And the priests and the Levites made themselves clean; and they made the people clean, and the doorways and the wall.
Para imam dan orang-orang Lewi mentahirkan dirinya, lalu mentahirkan seluruh umat itu, dan kemudian pintu-pintu gerbang dan tembok.
31 Then I made the rulers of Judah come up on the wall, and I put in position two great bands of them who gave praise, walking in ordered lines; one went to the right on the wall, in the direction of the doorway where the waste was put;
Lalu aku mempersilakan para pemimpin orang Yehuda naik ke atas tembok dan kubentuk dua paduan suara yang besar. Yang satu berarak ke kanan di atas tembok ke jurusan pintu gerbang Sampah.
32 And after them went Hoshaiah and half of the rulers of Judah,
Di belakangnya berjalanlah Hosaya dengan sebagian dari para pemimpin orang Yehuda,
33 And Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
pula Azarya, Ezra, Mesulam,
34 Judah and Benjamin and Shemaiah and Jeremiah,
Yehuda, Benyamin, Semaya dan Yeremia,
35 And certain of the priests' sons with wind instruments; 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,
dan dari kaum imam yang memegang nafiri: Zakharia bin Yonatan bin Semaya bin Matanya bin Mikha bin Zakur bin Asaf,
36 And his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel and Judah, Hanani, with the music-instruments of David, the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was at their head;
dan saudara-saudaranya, yakni: Semaya, Azareel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Netaneel, Yehuda dan Hanani dengan bunyi-bunyian Daud, abdi Allah itu, sedang Ezra, ahli kitab itu berjalan di depan mereka.
37 And by the doorway of the fountain and straight in front of them, they went up by the steps of the town of David, at the slope up of the wall, over the house of David, as far as the water-doorway to the east.
Lalu pada pintu gerbang Mata Air mereka langsung naik tangga-tangga kota Daud, pada jalan pendakian tembok, lewat istana Daud, dan berjalan sampai pintu gerbang Air, di sebelah Timur.
38 And the other band of those who gave praise went to the left, and I went after them with half the people, on the wall, over the tower of the ovens, as far as the wide wall;
Dan paduan suara yang kedua berarak ke kiri dan aku mengikutinya dengan sebagian dari orang-orang itu melalui tembok dan menara Perapian sampai tembok Lebar.
39 And over the doorway of Ephraim and by the old door and the fish door and the tower of Hananel and the tower of Hammeah, as far as the sheep door: and at the doorway of the watchmen they came to a stop.
Lalu kami melalui pintu gerbang Efraim, pintu gerbang Lama, pintu gerbang Ikan, menara Hananeel dan menara Mea sampai pintu gerbang Domba. Mereka berhenti di pintu gerbang Penjagaan.
40 So the two bands of those who gave praise took up their positions in the house of God, and I and half of the chiefs with me:
Kemudian kedua paduan suara itu berdiri di rumah Allah. Demikian juga aku bersama-sama sebagian dari para penguasa,
41 And the priests; Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with wind instruments;
dan para imam, yakni: Elyakim, Maaseya, Minyamin, Mikha, Elyoenai, Zakharia, Hananya dengan memegang nafiri,
42 And Maaseiah and Shemaiah and Eleazar and Uzzi and Jehohanan and Malchijah and Elam and Ezer. And the makers of melody made their voices loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.
dan Maaseya, Semaya, Eleazar, Uzi, Yohanan, Malkia, Elam dan Ezer. Lalu para penyanyi memperdengarkan kidung di bawah pimpinan Yizrahya.
43 And on that day they made great offerings and were glad; for God had made them glad with great joy; and the women and the children were glad with them: so that the joy of Jerusalem came to the ears of those who were far off.
Pada hari itu mereka mempersembahkan korban yang besar. Mereka bersukaria karena Allah memberi mereka kesukaan yang besar. Juga segala perempuan dan anak-anak bersukaria, sehingga kesukaan Yerusalem terdengar sampai jauh.
44 And on that day certain men were put over the rooms where the things which had been given were stored, for the lifted offerings and the first-fruits and the tenths, and to take into them the amounts, from the fields of every town, fixed by the law for the priests and the Levites: for Judah was glad on account of the priests and the Levites who were in their places.
Pada masa itu beberapa orang diangkat untuk mengawasi bilik-bilik perbendaharaan, bilik-bilik untuk persembahan khusus, untuk hasil pertama dan untuk persembahan persepuluhan, supaya sumbangan yang menurut hukum menjadi bagian para imam dan orang-orang Lewi dikumpulkan di bilik-bilik itu sesuai dengan ladang setiap kota. Sebab Yehuda bersukacita karena para imam dan orang-orang Lewi yang bertugas.
45 And they kept the watch of their God, and were responsible for making things clean, and so did the music-makers and the door-keepers, as it was ordered by David and Solomon his son.
Karena merekalah yang melakukan tugas pelayanan bagi Allah mereka dan tugas pentahiran, demikian juga para penyanyi dan para penunggu pintu gerbang, sesuai dengan perintah Daud dan Salomo, anaknya.
46 For in the days of David and Asaph in the past, there was a master of the music, and songs of blessing and praise to God.
Karena sudah sejak dahulu, pada zaman Daud dan Asaf, ada pemimpin-pemimpin penyanyi, ada nyanyian pujian dan nyanyian syukur bagi Allah.
47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah gave what was needed by the music-makers and the door-keepers day by day: and they made the offerings holy for the Levites; and the Levites did the same for the sons of Aaron.
Pada zaman Zerubabel dan Nehemia semua orang Israel memberikan sumbangan bagi para penyanyi dan para penunggu pintu gerbang sekadar yang perlu tiap-tiap hari dan mempersembahkan persembahan kudus kepada orang-orang Lewi. Dan orang-orang Lewi mempersembahkan persembahan kudus kepada anak-anak Harun.
