1 Chronicles 24
1 Now these were the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, and Abihu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Ici nĩcio ciarĩ ikundi cia ariũ a Harũni: Ariũ a Harũni maarĩ Nadabu, na Abihu, na Eleazaru, na Ithamaru.
2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and without children. And so Eleazar and Ithamar exercised the priestly office.
No rĩrĩ, Nadabu na Abihu nĩmakuire ithe wao atakuĩte, na matiarĩ na ciana cia aanake; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Eleazaru na Ithamaru magĩtungata marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
3 And David distributed them, that is, Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their courses and ministry.
Zadoku wa rũciaro rwa Eleazaru na Ahimeleku wa rũciaro rwa Ithamaru nĩo maateithĩrĩirie Daudi kũmagayania ikundi, nĩ ũndũ wa mũtaratara wa ũtungata ũrĩa maathuurĩirwo.
4 And there were found many more of the sons of Eleazar among the leading men, than of the sons of Ithamar. Therefore, he divided them so that there were, of the sons of Eleazar, sixteen leaders by their families, and of the sons of Ithamar eight by their families and houses.
Atongoria arĩa aingĩ moimĩte njiaro-inĩ cia Eleazaru gũkĩra arĩa moimĩte njiaro-inĩ cia Ithamaru, nao makĩgayanio ta ũũ: kuuma njiaro-inĩ cia Eleazaru kwarĩ na atongoria a nyũmba ikũmi na atandatũ, na kuuma njiaro-inĩ cia Ithamaru kwarĩ na atongoria a nyũmba anana.
5 Then he divided among them, in both families, by lot. For there were leaders of the sanctuary and leaders of God, as much from the sons of Eleazar as from the sons of Ithamar.
Maamagayanirie na kĩhooto na ũndũ wa gũcuuka mĩtĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩ haarĩ na anene a handũ-harĩa-haamũre, na anene a nyũmba ya Ngai gatagatĩ-inĩ ka njiaro icio cia Eleazaru na cia Ithamaru.
6 And the scribe Shemaiah, the son of Nethanel, a Levite, wrote these down before the king and the leaders, with Zadok, the priest, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, and also the leaders of the priestly and Levitical families. And there was one house, which was preeminent over the others, that of Eleazar; and there was another house, which had the others under it, that of Ithamar.
Shemaia mũrũ wa Nethaneli, ũrĩa mwandĩki-marũa Mũlawii, nĩandĩkire marĩĩtwa mao arĩ mbere ya mũthamaki na anene aya: Zadoku ũrĩa-mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Ahimeleku mũrũ wa Abiatharu, na atongoria a nyũmba cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai na cia Alawii. Nyũmba ĩmwe ĩgathuurwo kuuma kũrĩ Eleazaru, na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩgathuurwo kuuma kũrĩ Ithamaru.
7 Now the first lot went forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,

na wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtatũ kũrĩ Delaia, na wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩna kũrĩ Maazia.
19 These were their courses according to their ministries, so that they would enter into the house of the Lord in accord with their practice, under the hand of Aaron, their father, just as the Lord, the God of Israel, had instructed.
Ũyũ nĩguo warĩ mũtaratara wa ũtungata wao rĩrĩa maatoonya hekarũ ya Jehova, kũringana na watho ũrĩa maatuĩrĩirwo nĩ ithe wao Harũni, ta ũrĩa Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli aamwathĩte.
20 Now of the sons of Levi who were remaining, there were Shubael, from the sons of Amram, and Jehdeiah, from the sons of Shubael.
Njiaro iria ingĩ cia Lawi ciarĩ: kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a Amuramu: nĩ Shubaeli; na kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a Shubaeli: nĩ Jehedeia.
21 Also, there were Isshiah, the leader from the sons of Rehabiah,
Kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a Rehabia: nĩ Ishia na nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria wao.

27 Also, the son of Merari: Uzziah, and Shoham, and Zaccur, and Hebri.
Ariũ a Merari: kuuma kũrĩ Jaazia: maarĩ Beno, na Shohamu, na Zakuri, na Ibiri.
28 In addition, the son of Mahli was Eleazar, who had no children.

29 Truly, the son of Kish was Jerahmeel.
Kuuma kũrĩ Kishu: nĩ mũriũ Jerameeli.

Nao ariũ a Mushi: maarĩ Mahali, na Ederi, na Jeremothu. Acio nĩo maarĩ Alawii kũringana na nyũmba ciao.
31 And they also cast lots concerning their brothers, the sons of Aaron, before David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the leaders of the priestly and Levitical families, as much concerning the elder as the younger. The lot divided all things equitably.
O nao nĩmacuukire mĩtĩ o ta ũrĩa ariũ a ithe wao a rũciaro rwa Harũni meekire, marĩ mbere ya Mũthamaki Daudi o na mbere ya Zadoku, na Ahimeleku, na atongoria a nyũmba cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai na cia Alawii. Nyũmba cia mũrũ wa nyina ũrĩa mũkũrũ ciekirwo o ta ũrĩa nyũmba cia ũrĩa mũnini mũno ciekirwo.
