1 Chronicles 26
1 And the divisions of the porters: of the Corites Meselemia, the son of Core, of the sons of Asaph.
Magulu a alonda a pa zipata: Kuchokera ku banja la Kora: Meselemiya mwana wa Kore, mmodzi mwa ana a Asafu.
2 The sons of Meselemia: Zacharias the firstborn, Jadihel the second, Zabadias the third, Jathanael the fourth,
Meselemiya anali ndi ana awa: woyamba Zekariya, wachiwiri Yediaeli, wachitatu Zebadiya, wachinayi Yatinieli,
3 Elam the fifth, Johanan the sixth, Elioenai the seventh.
wachisanu Elamu, wachisanu ndi chimodzi Yehohanani, ndipo wachisanu ndi chiwiri Elihunai.
4 And the sons of Obededom, Semeias the firstborn, Jozabad the second, Joaha the third, Sachar the fourth, Nathanael the fifth,
Obedi-Edomu analinso ndi ana awa: woyamba Semaya, wachiwiri Yehozabadi, wachitatu Yowa, wachinayi Sakara, wachisanu Netaneli,
5 Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Phollathi the eighth: for the Lord had blessed him.
wachisanu ndi chimodzi Amieli, wachisanu ndi chiwiri Isakara ndipo wachisanu ndi chitatu Peuletayi. (Pakuti Mulungu anadalitsa Obedi-Edomu).
6 And to Semei his son were born sons, herds of their families: for they were men of great valour.
Mwana wake Semaya analinso ndi ana amene anali atsogoleri mʼbanja la abambo awo chifukwa anali anthu amphamvu.
7 The sons then of Semeias were Othni, and Raphael, and Obed, Elizabad, and his brethren most valiant men: and Eliu, and Samachias.
Ana a Semaya anali: Otini, Refaeli, Obedi ndi Elizabadi; abale ake, Elihu ndi Semakiya, analinso anthu amphamvu.
8 All these of the sons of Obededom: they, and their sons, and their brethren most able men for service, sixty-two of Obededom.
Onsewa anali adzukulu a Obedi-Edomu. Iwo ndi ana awo ndiponso abale awo anali anthu aluso ndi amphamvu pogwira ntchito. Zidzukulu zonse za Obedi-Edomu zinalipo 62.
9 And the sons of Meselemia, and their brethren strong men, were eighteen.
Meselemiya anali ndi ana ndi abale ake amene anali aluso ndipo onse analipo 18.
10 And of Hosa, that is, of the sons of Merari: Semri the chief, (for he had not a firstborn, and therefore his father made him chief.)
Hosa Mmerari anali ndi ana awa: woyamba anali Simiri (ngakhale kuti iye sanali woyamba kubadwa, abambo ake anamusankha kuti akhale mtsogoleri),
11 Helcias the second, Tabelias the third, Zacharias the fourth: all these the sons, and the brethren of Hosa, were thirteen.
wachiwiri Hilikiya, wachitatu Tebaliya ndipo wachinayi Zekariya. Ana ndi abale onse a Hosa analipo 13.
12 Among these were the divisions of the porters, so that the chiefs of the wards, as well as their brethren, always ministered in the house of the Lord.
Magulu amenewa a alonda a pa zipata, motsogozedwa ndi atsogoleri awo, anali ndi ntchito yotumikira mʼNyumba ya Yehova, monga momwe amachitira abale awo.
13 And they cast lots equally, both little and great, by their families for every one of the gates.
Iwo anachita maere mwa mabanja awo aangʼono ndi aakulu omwe kuti apeze mlonda pa chipata chilichonse.
14 And the lot of the east fell to Selemias. But to his son Zacharias, a very wise and learned man, the north gate fell by lot.
Maere a chipata chakummwa anagwera Selemiya. Maere anachitikanso chifukwa cha mwana wake Zekariya, phungu wanzeru ndipo maere a chipata chakumpoto anagwera iye.
15 And to Obededom and his sons that towards the south: in which part of the house was the council of the ancients.
Maere a chipata chakummwera anagwera Obedi-Edomu, ndipo maere a nyumba yosungiramo katundu anagwera ana ake.
16 To Sephim, and Hosa towards the west, by the gate which leadeth to the way of the ascent: ward against ward.
Maere a chipata chakumadzulo ndi chipata cha Saleketi ku msewu wa ku mtunda anagwera Supimu ndi Hosa. Mlonda ankayangʼanana ndi mlonda mnzake:
17 Now towards the east were six Levites: and towards the north four a day: and towards the south likewise four a day: and where the council was, two and two.
Mbali ya kummawa kunkakhala Alevi 6 pa tsiku, kumpoto anayi pa tsiku, kummwera anayi pa tsiku ndipo awiri ankakhala pa nyumba yosungiramo katundu.
18 In the cells also of the porters toward the west four in the way: and two at every cell.
Ndipo ku bwalo cha kumadzulo, anayi amakhala mu msewu ndi awiri pabwalo penipeni.
19 These are the divisions of the porters of the sons of Core, and of Merari.
Awa anali magulu a alonda a pa zipata amene anali zidzukulu za Kora ndi Merari.
20 Now Achias was over the treasures of the house of God, and the holy vessels.
Abale awo Alevi, motsogozedwa ndi Ahiya, anali oyangʼanira chuma cha nyumba ya Mulungu ndi zinthu zoperekedwa kwa Mulungu.
21 The sons of Ledan, the sons of Gersonni: of Ledan were heads of the families, of Ledan, and Gersonni, Jehieli.
Adzukulu a Ladani, mmodzi mwa ana a Geresoni, amene anali atsogoleri a mabanja a Ageresoni, anali awa: Yehieli,
22 The sons of Jehieli: Zathan and Joel, his brethren over the treasures of the house of the Lord,
ana a Yehieli, Zetamu ndi mʼbale wake Yoweli. Iwo amayangʼanira chuma cha ku Nyumba ya Mulungu wa Yehova.
23 With the Amramites, and Isaarites, and Hebronites, and Ozielites.
Kuchokera ku banja la Amramu, banja la Aizihara, banja la Ahebroni ndi banja la Auzieli:
24 And Subael the son of Gersom, the son of Moses, was chief over the treasures.
Subaeli, chidzukulu cha Geresomu, mwana wa Mose, anali mkulu woyangʼanira chuma.
25 His brethren also, Eliezer, whose son Rohobia, and his son Isaias, and his son Joram, and his son Zechri, and his son Selemith.
Abale ake obadwa mwa Eliezara, anali Rekabiya mwana wake, Yesaya mwana wake, Yoramu mwana wake, Zikiri mwana wake ndi Selomiti mwana wake.
26 Which Selemith and his brethren were over the treasures of the holy things, which king David, and the heads of families, and the captains over thousands and over hundreds, and the captains of the host had dedicated,
Selomiti ndi abale ake amayangʼanira zinthu zonse zoperekedwa kwa Mulungu ndi mfumu Davide, atsogoleri a mabanja amene anali olamulira ankhondo 1,000, olamulira ankhondo 100, ndi olamulira ankhondo ena.
27 Out of the wars, and the spoils won in battles, which they had consecrated to the building and furniture of the temple of the Lord.
Zina zofunkha ku nkhondo anazipereka kuti zikhale zokonzera Nyumba ya Yehova.
28 And all these things that Samuel the seer and Saul the son of Cis, and Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Sarvia had sanctified: and whosoever had sanctified those things, they were under the hand of Selemith and his brethren.
Ndipo zonse zimene zinaperekedwa ndi Mlosi Samueli, Sauli mwana wa Kisi, Abineri mwana wa Neri ndiponso Yowabu mwana wa Zeruya ndi zinthu zonse zimene zinkaperekedwa zimasungidwa ndi Selomiti ndi abale ake.
29 But Chonenias and his sons were over the Isaarites, for the business abroad over Israel to teach them and judge them.
Kuchokera ku banja la Izihari: Kenaniya ndi ana ake anapatsidwa ntchito kutali ndi Nyumba ya Mulungu ngati akuluakulu ndi oweruza Israeli.
30 And of the Hebronites Hasabias, and his brethren most able men, a thousand seven hundred had the charge over Israel beyond the Jordan westward, in all the works of the Lord, and for the service of the king.
Kuchokera ku banja la Ahebroni: Hasabiya ndi abale ake, anthu anzeru 1,700. Iwo ankayangʼanira ntchito zonse za Yehova ndi ntchito yonse ya mfumu cha kumadzulo kwa Yorodani.
31 And the chief of the Hebronites was Jeria according to their families and kindreds. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were numbered, and there were found most valiant men in Jazer Galaad,
Pa banja la Ahebroni, Yeriya anali mtsogoleri monga mwa mbiri ya mibado ya mabanja awo. Mʼchaka cha 40 cha ufumu wa Davide, panachitika kafukufuku ndipo ena mwa anthu aluso a banja la Hebroni anapezeka kuti anali ku Yazeri ku Giliyadi.
32 And his brethren of stronger age, two thousand seven hundred chiefs of families. And king David made them rulers over the Rubenites and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasses, for all the service of God, and the king.
Yeriya anali ndi abale 2,700 amene anali aluso ndiponso atsogoleri a mabanja. Mfumu Davide anawayika iwowa kuti aziyangʼanira fuko la Rubeni, fuko la Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase pa zinthu zonse za Mulungu ndi za mfumu.
