Hahoi Levihnaw teh, Jeshua, Binnui, Kedmiel, Sherebiah, Judah hoi Mathaniah, Mathaniah teh a hmaunawnghanaw hoi lunghawilawkdeinae koe kahrawikung lah ao.
9 And Becbecia, and Hanni, and their brethren every one in his office.
Ahnimae hmaunawngha Bakbukiah hoi Unni teh la a sak awh navah kadangka lahoi kangdue laihoi a ring awh.
10 And Josue beget Joacim, and Joacim beget Eliasib, and Eliasib beget Joiada,
Hahoi, Jeshua capa Joiakim, Joiakim capa Eliashib, Eliashib capa Joiada,
11 And Joiada beget Jonathan, and Jonathan beget Jeddoa.
Joiada capa Jonathan, Jonathan capa Jaddua.
12 And in the days of Joacim the priests and heads of the families were: Of Saraia, Maraia: of Jeremias, Hanania:
Hahoi, Joiakim se navah, imthung lahoi na pa lah kaawm e kacue e vaihmanaw teh; Seraiah imthung dawk Meraiah, Jeremiah imthung dawk Hananiah,

22 The Levites the chiefs of the families in the days of Eliasib, and Joiada, and Johanan, and Jeddoa, were recorded, and the priests in the reign of Darius the Persian.
Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan hoi Jaddua tinaw e senah, vaihma lah kaawm niteh, napanaw dawk lû lah lengkaleng kaawm e naw hah, Persia tami Darius se totouh, cungpam dawk min pakhum e lah ao.
23 The sons of Levi, heads of the families were written in the book of Chronicles, even unto the days of Jonathan the son of Eliasib.
Eliashib capa Johanan se totouh, Levihnaw imthung lahoi lû lah kaawmnaw hah cungpam dawk min pakhum e lah ao.
24 Now the chief of the Levites were Hasebia, Serebia, and Josue the son of Cedmihel: and their brethren by their courses, to praise and to give thanks according to the commandment of David the man of God, and to wait equally in order.
Levihnaw dawk kacuenaw: Hashabiah, Sherebiah hoi Kadmiel capa Jeshua tinaw teh, Cathut e tami Devit e kâpoelawk patetlah a hmaunawnghanaw hoi cungtalah pholen hane hoi, lunghawi lawk dei hanelah, kâletta lahoi a tawk awh.
25 Mathania, and Becbecia, Obedia, and Mosollam, Telmon, Accub, were keepers of the gates and of the entrances before the gates.
Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Telmon hoi Akkub tinaw teh, takhang teng e hnopai ta e hoi takhang ka ring e lah ao awh.
26 These were in the days of Joacim the son of Josue, the son of Josedec, and in the days of Nehemias the governor, and of Esdras the priest and scribe.
Ahnimanaw teh Jozadak capa, Jeshua capa, Joiakim se nah, ram ukkung Nehemiah hoi kâlawk kacangkhaikung vaihma Ezra se nah ao awh.
27 And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, and to keep the dedication, and to rejoice with thanksgiving, and with singing, and with cymbals, and psalteries and harps.
Jerusalem rapan hah hnawngnae a sak toteh, cecak, ratoung, tamawi, tum laihoi la sak laihoi, nawmnae, lunghawilawkdeinae hoi cungtalah hnawngnae sak nahanelah, Levihnaw hah a tawng awh teh, a onae hmuen tangkuem koehoi Jerusalem vah a kaw awh.
28 And the sons of the singing men were gathered together out of the plain country about Jerusalem, and out of the villages of Nethuphati,
La kasakthainaw teh Jerusalem kho tengpam koe lah thoseh, Netophah kho hoi thoseh,
29 And from the house of Galgal, and from the countries of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singing men had built themselves villages round about Jerusalem.
Gilgal im hoi thoseh, Geba hoi Azmaveth ram koehoi thoseh, a mahmawk a kamkhueng awh.
30 And the priests and the Levites purified, and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
Vaihma hoi Levihnaw hai amahoima thoseh, taminaw thoseh, kho longkha thoseh, kho rapan thoseh a thoung sak awh.
31 And I made the princes of Juda go up upon the wall, and I appointed two great choirs to give praise. And they went on the right hand upon the wall toward the dunghill gate.
Hattoteh Judah bawinaw hah rapan van ka ceikhai teh, pholen la ka sak hanelah, phu hni touh lah ka kapek. Phu touh teh aranglah hoi a kâhei teh vaipuen longkha koe kho rapan van a cei awh.
32 And after them went Osaias, and half of the princes of Juda,
Ahnimouh hnuk vah Hoshaiah hoi Judah kacuenaw tangawn,
33 And Azarias, Esdras, and Mosollam,
Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,
34 Judas, and Benjamin, and Semeia, and Jeremias.
Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah hoi Jeremiah tinaw a kâbang awh.
35 And of the sons of the priests with trumpets, Zacharias the son of Jonathan. the son of Semeia, the son of Mathania; the son of Michaia, the son of Zechur, the son of Asaph,
Hahoi mongka ka patuem e vaihmanaw, Jonathan capa, Zekhariah, Shemaiah capa, Mathanial capa, Michaiah capa, Zakkur capa, Asaph capa,
36 And his brethren Semeia, and Azareel Malalai, Galalai, Maai, Nathanael, and Judas, and Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God: and Esdras the scribe before them at the fountain gate.
Hahoi a hmaunawngha, Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah hoi Hanani tinaw ni, Cathut e tami Devit e tumkhawngnaw heh a patuep awh teh, a kâbang awh. Kâlawk kacangkhaikung Ezra teh ahnimae hmalah a cei.
37 And they went up over against them by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall of the house of David, and to the water gate eastward:
Ahnimae kadangka lah kaawm e tuiphuek khu longkha koe a pha awh torei, khorapan luennae Devit kho khalai hoi a luen awh teh, Devit im lathueng kanîtholah, Tui longkha totouh a cei awh.
38 And the second choir of them that gave thanks went on the opposite side, and I after them, and the half of the people upon the wall, and upon the tower of the furnaces, even to the broad wall,
La kasakkung tangawn teh avoilah a kamlang awh teh, kai hoi tangawn teh, khorapan van, takhuen imrasang koehoi, khorapan akawnae koe totouh a kâbang awh.
39 And above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old gate, and above the fish gate and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Emath, and even to the flock gate: and they stood still in the watch gate.
Ephraim longkha, longkha karuem, tanga longkha, Hananel imrasang, Meah imrasang koehoi kamtawng teh, tu longkha totouh a kâbang awh hnukkhu, thongim longkha koe a kangdue awh.
40 And the two choirs of them that gave praise stood still at the house of God, and I and the half of the magistrates with me.
Hahoi la kasakkung phu hni touh teh, Cathut im vah a kangdue awh teh, a tangawn e bawinaw teh kai hoi cungtalah,
41 And the priests, Eliachim, Maasia, Miamin, Michea, Elioenai, Zacharia, Hanania with trumpets,
Mongka ka patuem e vaihma Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Mikaiah, Elioenai, Zekhariah hoi Hananiah,
42 And Maasia, and Semeia, and Eleazar, and Azzi, and Johanan, and Melchia, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sung loud, and Jezraia was their overseer:
Hahoi, Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malkhijah, Elam hoi Ezer tinaw hai cungtalah a kangdue awh. La kasakkungnaw teh kahrawikung Jezrahiah hoi cungtalah puenghoi la a sak awh.
43 And they sacrificed on that day great sacrifices, and they rejoiced: for God had made them joyful with great joy: their wives also and their children rejoiced, and the joy of Jerusalem was heard afar off.
Hot hnin vah vaihmanaw ni thuengnae moikapap a sak awh teh, a konawm awh. Puenghoi konawmnae Cathut ni a poe awh dawkvah, yunaw hoi canaw hai a konawm awh. Hatdawkvah, Jerusalem konawnnae hah ahlanae koehoi patenghai thai e lah ao.
44 They appointed also in that day men over the storehouses of the treasure, for the libations, and for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, that the rulers of the city might bring them in by them in honour of thanksgiving, for the priests and Levites: for Juda was joyful in the priests and Levites that assisted.
Hatnavah Bawkim dawk thaw kakuennaw, vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw teh karingkung lah ao awh dawkvah, Judahnaw teh a lungkuep awh teh, vaihmanaw hoi Levih ni a pang awh hane pasoumhno aluepaw, pung hra pung touh hah, kho tangkuem hoi a pâkhueng awh teh, hmoun nahane rakhannaw karingkung hanelah thaw a poe awh.
45 And they kept the watch of their God, and the observance of expiation, and the singing men, and the porters, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.
La kasakkungnaw hoi tho karingkungnaw hai Devit capa Solomon e kâpoelawk patetlah amamae Cathut thaw hoi thoungnae thaw hah a tawk awh.
46 For in the days of David and Asaph from the beginning there were chief singers appointed, to praise with canticles, and give thanks to God.
Devit hoi Asaph se navah, Cathut koe lunghawilawkdeinae kahrawikungnaw teh ao awh.
47 And all Israel, in the days of Zorobabel, and in the days of Nehemias gave portions to the singing men, and to the porters, day by day, and they sanctified the Levites, and the Levites sanctified the sons of Aaron.
Zerubbabel hoi Nehemiah se nahai la kasakkungnaw hoi tho karingkungnaw hah, hnintangkuem a pang awh hane rawca hah a poe awh. Levihnaw hah ka thoung hnonaw a poe awh. Levihnaw ni hai Aron capanaw coe hanelah a kapek pouh awh.
