1 Chronicles 24
1 The sons of Aaron were placed in divisions as follows. The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Ebibinja eby’abazzukulu ba Alooni nga bwe bagabanyizibwamu byali bwe biti: Batabani ba Alooni baali Nadabu, ne Abiku, ne Eriyazaali ne Isamaali.
2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did, and they had no sons. Only Eleazar and Ithamar carried on as priests.
Naye Nadabu ne Abiku baasooka kitaabwe okufa, ate nga baafa tebazzadde baana. Eriyazaali ne Isamaali kyebaava baawulibwa era ne batandika okukola omulimu ogw’obwakabona.
3 With the help of Zadok, a descendant of Eleazar, and Ithamar, a descendant Ahimelech, David placed them in divisions according to their appointed duties.
Dawudi ng’ayambibwako Zadooki muzzukulu wa Eriyazaali, ne Akimereki muzzukulu wa Isamaali, yabaawulamu ebibinja nga bwe baalondebwa mu kuweereza kwabwe.
4 Because Eleazar's descendants had more leaders than those of Ithamar, they were divided like this: sixteen family leaders from the descendants of Eleazar, and eight from the descendants of Ithamar.
Kyazuulibwa nga abakulembeze mu bazzukulu ba Eriyazaali baali bangi okusinga abazzukulu ba Isamaali, bwe bati bwe bagabanyizibwamu: mu bazzukulu ba kkumi na mukaaga, okuba abakulu b’ennyumba ne ku bazzukulu ba Isamaali munaana okuba abakulu b’ennyumba.
5 They were divided by casting lots, without preference, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God from both the sons of Eleazar and the sons of Ithamar.
Baabagabanyamu nga bakubye obululu, kubanga waaliwo abakungu abamu nga ba mu kifo ekitukuvu, n’abalala nga bakungu ba Katonda naye nga bonna bazzukulu ba Eriyazaali ne Isamaali.
6 Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, was the secretary. He wrote down the names and assignments in the presence of the king, the officials, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the family leaders of the priests and Levites. One family from Eleazar and one from Ithamar were chosen in turn.
Semaaya Omuwandiisi, mutabani wa Nesaneri, Omuleevi, n’awandiikira amannya gaabwe mu maaso ga kabaka n’abakungu nga Zadooki kabona, ne Akimereki mutabani wa Abiyasaali, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za bakabona, n’Abaleevi, ennyumba emu ng’eronderwa Eriyazaali, n’endala ng’eronderwa Isamaali.

31 They also cast lots in the same way their relatives the descendants of Aaron did. They did this in the presence of King David, and of Zadok, Ahimelech, and the family leaders of the priests and of the Levites, the family leaders and their youngest brothers alike.
Era ne bano bwe batyo ne bakuba obululu, nga baganda baabwe bazzukulu ba Alooni bwe baakola, mu maaso ga Kabaka Dawudi, ne Zadooki, ne Akimereki, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za bakabona n’Abaleevi. Ennyumba ya muganda waabwe omukulu yayisibwanga mu ngeri y’emu ng’ey’omuto.
