1 Chronicles 23
1 And David being old and full of days, made Solomon his son king over Israel.
Daawit erga waggaa hedduu jiraatee dulloomee booddee ilma isaa Solomoonin Israaʼel irratti mootii godhe.
2 And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, and the priests and Levites.
Akkasumas Daawit dura buutota Israaʼel hunda, lubootaa fi Lewwota illee walitti qabe.
3 And the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years, and upwards: and there were found of them thirty-eight thousand men.
Lewwonni umuriin isaanii waggaa soddomaa fi hammasii olii ni lakkaaʼaman; baayʼinni dhiirotaa kuma soddomii saddeet taʼe.
4 Of these twenty-four thousand were chosen, and distributed unto the ministry of the house of the Lord: and six thousand were the overseers and judges.
Daawitis akkana jedhe; “Isaan kanneen keessaa kuma digdamii afur hojii mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo haa toʼatan; namoonni kuma jaʼa qondaaltotaa fi abbootii murtii haa taʼan.
5 Moreover four thousand were porters: and as many singers singing to the Lord with the instruments, which he had made to sing with.
Kumni afur eegdota balbalaa haa taʼan; kumni afur immoo miʼoota faarfannaa kanneen ani kaayyoo kanaaf kenneen Waaqayyoon haa galateeffatan.”
6 And David distributed them into courses by the families of the sons of Levi, to wit, of Gerson, and of Caath, and of Merari.
Daawitis Lewwota akkuma gosoota Lewwiitti garee gareen gargar ni qoode; isaanis: Geershoon, Qohaatii fi Meraarii.
7 The sons of Gerson were Leedan and Semei.
Gosa Geershoon keessaa: Laʼadaanii fi Shimeʼii.
8 The sons of Leedan: the chief Jahiel, and Zethan, and Joel, three.
Ilmaan Laʼadaanii: Yehiiʼeel hangafticha, Zeetaamii fi Yooʼeel; walumatti nama sadii turan.
9 The sons of Semei: Salomith, and Hosiel, and Aran, three: these were the heads of the families of Leedan.
Ilmaan Shimeʼii: Sheloomot, Haziiʼeelii fi Haaraan; walumatti nama sadii turan. Isaan kunneen hangafoota Maatii Laʼadaan turan.
10 And the sons of Semei were Leheth, and Ziza, and Jaus, and Baria: these were the sons of Semei, four.
Ilmaan Shimeʼii: Yahaati, Ziinaa, Yeʼuushii fi Beriiyaa. Isaan kunneen ilmaan Shimeʼii ti; walumatti nama afur turan.
11 And Leheth was the first, Ziza the second: but Jaus and Baria had not many children, and therefore they were counted in one family, and in one house.
Yahaati hangafa; Ziinaan lammaffaa; Yeʼuushii fi Beriiyaan garuu ilmaan baayʼee hin qaban; kanaafuu isaan akkuma maatii tokkootti lakkaaʼaman.
12 The sons of Caath were Amram, and Isaar, Hebron, and Oziel, four.
Ilmaan Qohaatii: Amraam, Yizihaar, Kebroonii fi Uziiʼeel; walumatti nama afur turan.
13 The sons of Amram, Aaron, and Moses. And Aaron was separated to minister in the holy of holies, he and his sons for ever, and to burn incense before the Lord, according to his ceremonies, and to bless his name for ever.
Ilmaan Amraam: Aroonii fi Musee. Aroon akka innii fi sanyiin isaa wantoota waan hunda caalaa qulqulluu taʼan Waaqaaf qulqulleessaniif, akka fuula Waaqayyoo duratti aarsaa dhiʼeessaniif, akka fuula isaa dura tajaajilanii fi akka maqaa isaatiin eebba labsaniif bara baraan addaan baafaman.
14 The sons also of Moses, the man of God, were numbered in the tribe of Levi.
Ilmaan Musee nama Waaqaa immoo gosa Lewwiitti dabalamanii lakkaaʼaman.
15 The sons of Moses were Gersom and Eliezer:
Ilmaan Musee: Geershoomii fi Eliiʼezer.
16 The sons of Gersom: Subuel the first.
Ilmaan Geershoomii: Shebuuʼeel hangafa.
17 And the sons of Eliezer were: Rohobia the first: and Eliezer had no more sons. But the sons of Rohobia were multiplied exceedingly.
Ilmaan Eliiʼezerii keessaa: Rehaabiyaa hangafa. Eleʼaazaar ilmaan biraa hin qabu ture; ilmaan Rehaabiyaa garuu akka malee hedduu turan.
18 The sons of Isaar: Salomith the first.
Ilmaan Yizihaar keessaa: Sheloomiit hangafta.
19 The sons of Hebron: Jeriau the first, Amarias the second, Jahaziel the third, Jecmaam the fourth.
Ilmaan Kebroon; hangaftichi Yeriyaa, lammaffaan Amariyaa, sadaffaan Yahiziiʼeel, afuraffaan Yeqameʼaam.
20 The sons of Oziel: Micha the first, Jesia the second.
Ilmaan Uziiʼeel: hangaftichi Miikaa, lammaffaan Yishiyaa.
21 The sons of Merari: Moholi, and Musi. The sons of Moholi: Eleazar and Cia.
Ilmaan Meraarii: Mahilii fi Muusii. Ilmaan Mahilii: Eleʼaazaarii fi Qiish.
22 And Eleazar died, and had no sons but daughters: and the sons of Cis their brethren took them.
Eleʼaazaar utuu ilmaan hin dhalchin duʼe; inni intallan qofa qaba ture. Durbiiwwan isaanii ilmaan Qiishitu isaan fuudhe.
23 The sons of Musi: Moholi, and Eder, and Jerimoth, three.
Ilmaan Muusii: Mahelii, Eederii fi Yereemooti; walumatti nama sadii turan.
24 These are the sons of Levi in their kindreds and families, princes by their courses, and the number of every head that did the works of the ministry of the house of the Lord from twenty years old and upward.
Isaan kunneen ilmaan Lewwii kanneen akkuma mana abbootii isaaniitti hangafoonni abbootii warri maqaa maqaadhaan galmeeffamanii tokko tokkoon lakkaaʼaman, hojjettoota umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi sanaa ol taʼe warra mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa tajaajilanii dha.
25 For David said: The Lord the God of Israel hath given rest to his people, and a habitation in Jerusalem for ever.
Daawit akkana jedhee tureetii; “Waaqayyoo Waaqni Israaʼel saba isaatiif boqonnaa kenneera; bara baraanis Yerusaalem keessa ni jiraata;
26 And it shall not be the office of the Levites to carry any more the tabernacle, and all the vessels for the service thereof.
siʼachi Lewwonni dunkaana yookaan miʼoota achi keessatti itti fayyadaman hin baatan.”
27 So according to the last precepts of David, the sons of Levi are to be numbered from twenty years old and upward.
Akkuma qajeelcha Daawit dhuma irratti kenneetti, Lewwonni waggaa digdamaa fi sanaa olii hedamaniiruutii.
28 And they are to be under the hand of the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the Lord, in the porches, and in the chambers, and in the place of purification, and in the sanctuary, and in all the works of the ministry of the temple of the Lord.
Hojiin Lewwotaas tajaajila mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa keessatti sanyiiwwan Aroonii gargaaruu dha; kunis oobdiiwwanii fi kutaawwan mana qulqullummaa eeguu, miʼoota qulqulluu qulqulleessuu fi hojiiwwan biraas mana Waaqayyoo keessatti hojjechuu dha.
29 And the priests have the charge of the leaves of proposition, and of the sacrifice of fine flour, and of the unleavened cakes, and of the fryingpan, and of the roasting, and of every weight and measure.
Akkasumas buddeena minjaala irra kaaʼuu, daakuu kennaa midhaanii, buddeena utuu hin bukaaʼin tolfame, tolchuu fi waliin makuu, safartuu fi madaalii hunda irratti itti gaafatamtoota turan.
30 And the Levites are to stand in the morning to give thanks, and to sing praises to the Lord: and in like manner in the evening,
Isaan guyyaa guyyaadhaan Waaqayyoon galateeffachuu fi jajachuuf ganama ganama fuula isaa dura ni dhaabatu; galgala galgalas akkasuma ni godhu;
31 As well in the oblation of the holocausts of the Lord, as in the sabbaths and in the new moons, and the rest of the solemnities, according to the number and ceremonies prescribed for every thing, continually before the Lord.
yeroo aarsaan gubamu guyyaa Sanbataa Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamutti yeroo Ayyaana Baatii Haaraa fi gaafa ayyaana yeroon isaa murtaaʼe kamii iyyuu akkanuma ni godhu. Isaan yeroo hunda akkuma lakkoobsaa fi qajeelfama isaanii kennameetti fuula Waaqayyoo dura tajaajilu ture.
32 And let them keep the observances of the tabernacle of the covenant, and the ceremonies of the sanctuary, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, that they may minister in the house of the Lord.
Lewwonni akkasiin itti gaafatama dunkaana wal gaʼii fi Iddoo Qulqulluu eeguuf qaban raawwatan; akkasumas ajaja obboloota isaanii sanyiiwwan Aroon jalatti itti gaafatamummaa mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti qaban raawwachaa turan.
