Daftar tentang kepala-kepala keluarga orang Lewi dan keluarga imam telah dicatat pada zaman para Imam Agung berikut ini: Elyasib, Yoyada, Yohanan dan Yadua. Catatan itu selesai ketika Darius memerintah sebagai raja Persia.
23 As for the genealogy of the sons of Levi, the family leaders up to the time of Johanan, son of Eliashib, were listed in the Book of the Records.
Tetapi tentang kepala-kepala keluarga kaum Lewi hanyalah tercatat sampai zaman Yonatan cucu Elyasib.
24 The Levite leaders were Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua, son of Kadmiel, together with their fellow Levites, who stood opposite them, each section giving praise and thanks and responding to one another, as arranged by David, the man of God.
Di bawah pimpinan Hasabya, Serebya, Yesua, Binui dan Kadmiel, orang-orang Lewi dibagi dalam kelompok-kelompok. Setiap kali ada dua kelompok yang bertugas memuji TUHAN dan memberi syukur kepada-Nya secara berbalas-balasan, sesuai dengan peraturan Raja Daud, hamba Allah itu.
25 They were joined by Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, and Obadiah. Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storehouses at the gates.
Para penjaga pintu gerbang Rumah TUHAN yang ditugaskan menjaga kamar-kamar perbekalan di dekat pintu gerbang Rumah TUHAN ialah: Matanya, Bakbukya, Obaja, Mesulam, Talmon dan Akub.
26 They served in the time of Joiakim, son of Jeshua, son of Jozadak, and in the time of Nehemiah the governor and Ezra the priest and scribe.
Mereka itu hidup pada zaman Yoyakim anak Yesua dan cucu Yozadak dan pada zaman Gubernur Nehemia dan Imam Ezra, ahli Hukum itu.
27 In order to dedicate the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were called from everywhere they were living to come to Jerusalem and celebrate with joy the dedication with songs of praise and thanks, accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres.
Ketika tembok kota Yerusalem diresmikan, orang-orang Lewi dipanggil dari segala tempat tinggal mereka, supaya ikut memeriahkan peristiwa itu dengan nyanyian-nyanyian syukur, dan dengan musik gambus dan kecapi.
28 The singers were also brought in from the area around Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites,
Maka berkumpullah para penyanyi dari keluarga-keluarga Lewi itu, baik dari daerah tempat tinggalnya di sekitar Yerusalem, maupun dari kota-kota di sekitar Netofa,
29 as well as from Beth-gilgal and from the area of Geba and Azmaveth, for the singers had built villages for themselves all around Jerusalem.
dari Bet-Gilgal, Geba dan Asmawet.
30 Once the priests and the Levites had purified themselves, they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.
Para imam dan orang-orang Lewi itu melakukan upacara pembersihan bagi diri mereka kemudian bagi rakyat, bagi pintu-pintu gerbang dan tembok kota.
31 I had the leaders of Judah go up on the wall, and arranged two large choirs that to give thanks. One group went to right along the wall to the Refuse Gate.
Aku persilakan para pemimpin Yehuda naik ke atas tembok untuk mengatur dua kelompok besar yang akan berbaris mengelilingi kota sambil menyanyikan pujian syukur kepada Allah. Kelompok yang pertama berbaris di atas tembok, menuju ke kanan, ke Gerbang Sampah.
32 Hoshaiah and half the leaders of Judah followed them,
Hosaya berjalan di belakang para penyanyi, diikuti oleh sebagian dari para pemimpin orang Yehuda.
33 with Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,
Para imam berikut ini berjalan di belakang mereka sambil meniup trompet: Azarya, Ezra, Mesulam, Yehuda, Benyamin, Semaya dan Yeremia. Mereka diikuti oleh Zakharia anak Yonatan dan cucu Semaya. Beberapa dari nenek moyangnya ialah: Matanya, Mikha, Zakur dari kaum Asaf.
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
35 as well as some of the priests with trumpets, and Zechariah, son of Jonathan, son of Shemaiah, son of Mattaniah, son of Micaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph,
36 and his fellow priests, Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani, along with the musical instruments as required by David, the man of God. Ezra the scribe led them.
Di belakangnya berjalan anggota-anggota dari kaumnya, yaitu: Semaya, Azareel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Netaneel, Yehuda dan Hanani. Mereka semua membawa alat-alat musik, serupa dengan yang dimainkan oleh Raja Daud, hamba Allah itu. Imam Ezra, ahli Hukum Allah itu, berjalan di kepala barisan itu.
37 At the Fountain Gate they headed straight up by the stairs of the city of David, where the wall goes uphill, above the house of David, and on to the Water Gate on the east.
Sesampai di Pintu Gerbang Air Mancur mereka membelok dan mendaki tangga Kota Daud, melalui istana Daud, lalu kembali ke tembok pada Pintu Gerbang Air di sebelah timur kota.
38 The other choir group went in the opposite direction. I followed them, along with half the people, on the wall passing the Tower of the Ovens, on to the Broad Wall,
Kelompok penyanyi yang satu lagi berbaris di atas tembok menuju ke kiri, dan aku mengikutinya bersama-sama dengan sebagian dari rakyat. Kami berbaris melalui Menara Perapian sampai ke Tembok Lebar.
39 over the Ephraim Gate, the Jeshanah Gate, the Fish Gate, the Tower of Hananel, and the Tower of the Hundred, as far as the Sheep Gate, stopping at the Guard Gate.
Lalu kami melalui Pintu Gerbang Efraim, Pintu Gerbang Lama, Pintu Gerbang Ikan, Menara Hananeel dan Menara Mea sampai ke Pintu Gerbang Domba. Barisan kami berhenti di dekat Pintu Gerbang Penjagaan dekat Rumah TUHAN.
40 Both thanksgiving choirs then took their places in God's Temple. I followed with the group of leaders that was with me,
Maka sampailah kedua kelompok penyanyi itu di dekat Rumah TUHAN. Selain para pemimpin di dalam kelompokku,
41 along with the priests blowing their trumpets: Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah.
ikut juga imam-imam yang meniup trompet. Mereka adalah: Elyakim, Maaseya, Minyamin, Mikha, Elyoenai, Zakharia dan Hananya;
42 Then came the singers Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer, and the choirs sang, directed by Jezrahiah.
di belakang mereka berjalan Maaseya, Semaya, Eleazar, Uzi, Yohanan, Malkia, Elam dan Ezer. Para penyanyi menyanyi di bawah pimpinan Yizrahya.
43 Many sacrifices were offered that day, celebrating that God had brought them so much happiness, tremendous happiness. The women and children also celebrated, and the sounds of joy in Jerusalem could be heard far away.
Pada hari itu banyak kurban yang dipersembahkan kepada TUHAN. Rakyat bersukaria karena Allah telah membuat mereka berbahagia. Para wanita dan anak-anak juga ikut berpesta, dan suara mereka yang riang gembira terdengar sampai jauh.
44 On the same day men were put in charge over the storerooms that contained the offerings, the first part of the crops, and tithes. What was allocated by the Law for the priests and Levites was brought into these storerooms from the fields around the towns, because all the people of Judah were happy for the service of the priests and Levites.
Pada waktu itu beberapa orang ditugaskan mengawasi kamar-kamar perbekalan tempat menyimpan sumbangan-sumbangan untuk Rumah TUHAN, termasuk persembahan persepuluhan dan hasil bumi yang pertama setiap tahun. Para pengawas itu wajib mengumpulkan sumbangan-sumbangan itu dari ladang-ladang di sekitar kota-kota. Sumbangan-sumbangan itu diserahkan kepada para imam dan orang-orang Lewi, sesuai dengan peraturan Hukum. Orang-orang Yehuda menghargai para imam dan orang-orang Lewi itu,
45 They were responsible for the worship of their God and for the service of purification, along with the singers and gatekeepers, following the instructions of David and his son Solomon.
karena merekalah yang melakukan upacara penyucian dan upacara-upacara lain yang telah diperintahkan oleh Allah. Para pemain musik dan penjaga gerbang Rumah TUHAN juga melakukan tugas-tugas mereka, sesuai dengan peraturan Raja Daud dan Salomo, putranya.
46 For long ago, back in the time of David and Asaph, directors had been appointed for the singers and for the songs of praise and thanks to God.
Semenjak zaman Raja Daud dan ahli musik Asaf, para penyanyi telah menyanyikan lagu-lagu pujian syukur bagi Allah.
47 So in the time of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, everyone in Israel provided the daily food allowances for the singers and the gatekeepers. They also made sure to provide for the other Levites, and the Levites gave a share of this to the descendants of Aaron.
Pada zaman Zerubabel dan juga pada masa Nehemia, seluruh rakyat Israel memberikan persembahan untuk mencukupi kebutuhan sehari-hari para penyanyi dan penjaga gerbang Rumah TUHAN. Rakyat memberikan persembahan khusus kepada orang-orang Lewi dan orang-orang Lewi pun memberikan kepada para imam bagian yang sudah ditentukan.
