22 The family leaders of the Levites in the time of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan, and Jaddua, in addition to those of the priests, were recorded during the reign of Darius the Persian.
Tentang orang-orang Lewi, para kepala kaum keluarga mereka tercatat pada zaman Elyasib, Yoyada, Yohanan dan Yadua, sedang para imam tercatat sampai pemerintahan Darius, orang Persia itu.
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.
Kepala-kepala kaum keluarga anak-anak Lewi tercatat dalam kitab sejarah sampai zaman Yohanan bin 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.
Inilah para kepala orang-orang Lewi: Hasabya, Serebya, Yesua bin Kadmiel, dan saudara-saudara mereka yang berdiri di hadapan mereka untuk menyanyikan puji-pujian dan syukur sesuai dengan perintah Daud, abdi Allah itu, kelompok di samping kelompok.
25 They were joined by Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, and Obadiah. Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storehouses at the gates.
Matanya, Bakbukya, Obaja, Mesulam, Talmon dan Akub adalah penunggu-penunggu pintu gerbang yang mengadakan penjagaan di gudang-gudang perlengkapan pada pintu-pintu gerbang.
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 bin Yesua bin Yozadak dan pada zaman bupati Nehemia dan imam Ezra, ahli kitab 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.
Pada pentahbisan tembok Yerusalem orang-orang Lewi dipanggil dari segala tempat mereka dan dibawa ke Yerusalem untuk mengadakan pentahbisan yang meriah dengan ucapan syukur dan kidung, dengan ceracap, gambus dan kecapi.
28 The singers were also brought in from the area around Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites,
Maka berkumpullah kaum penyanyi dari daerah sekitar Yerusalem, dari desa-desa orang 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, dari padang Geba dan Asmawet, karena para penyanyi itu telah mendirikan desa-desa sekitar Yerusalem.
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 mentahirkan dirinya, lalu mentahirkan seluruh umat itu, dan kemudian pintu-pintu gerbang dan tembok.
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.
Lalu aku mempersilakan para pemimpin orang Yehuda naik ke atas tembok dan kubentuk dua paduan suara yang besar. Yang satu berarak ke kanan di atas tembok ke jurusan pintu gerbang Sampah.
32 Hoshaiah and half the leaders of Judah followed them,
Di belakangnya berjalanlah Hosaya dengan sebagian dari para pemimpin orang Yehuda,
33 with Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,
pula Azarya, Ezra, Mesulam,
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
Yehuda, Benyamin, Semaya dan Yeremia,
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,
dan dari kaum imam yang memegang nafiri: Zakharia bin Yonatan bin Semaya bin Matanya bin Mikha bin Zakur bin Asaf,
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.
dan saudara-saudaranya, yakni: Semaya, Azareel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Netaneel, Yehuda dan Hanani dengan bunyi-bunyian Daud, abdi Allah itu, sedang Ezra, ahli kitab itu berjalan di depan mereka.
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.
Lalu pada pintu gerbang Mata Air mereka langsung naik tangga-tangga kota Daud, pada jalan pendakian tembok, lewat istana Daud, dan berjalan sampai pintu gerbang Air, di sebelah Timur.
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,
Dan paduan suara yang kedua berarak ke kiri dan aku mengikutinya dengan sebagian dari orang-orang itu melalui tembok dan menara Perapian sampai 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 pintu gerbang Domba. Mereka berhenti di pintu gerbang Penjagaan.
40 Both thanksgiving choirs then took their places in God's Temple. I followed with the group of leaders that was with me,
Kemudian kedua paduan suara itu berdiri di rumah Allah. Demikian juga aku bersama-sama sebagian dari para penguasa,
41 along with the priests blowing their trumpets: Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah.
dan para imam, yakni: Elyakim, Maaseya, Minyamin, Mikha, Elyoenai, Zakharia, Hananya dengan memegang nafiri,
42 Then came the singers Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer, and the choirs sang, directed by Jezrahiah.
dan Maaseya, Semaya, Eleazar, Uzi, Yohanan, Malkia, Elam dan Ezer. Lalu para penyanyi memperdengarkan kidung 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 mereka mempersembahkan korban yang besar. Mereka bersukaria karena Allah memberi mereka kesukaan yang besar. Juga segala perempuan dan anak-anak bersukaria, sehingga kesukaan Yerusalem 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 masa itu beberapa orang diangkat untuk mengawasi bilik-bilik perbendaharaan, bilik-bilik untuk persembahan khusus, untuk hasil pertama dan untuk persembahan persepuluhan, supaya sumbangan yang menurut hukum menjadi bagian para imam dan orang-orang Lewi dikumpulkan di bilik-bilik itu sesuai dengan ladang setiap kota. Sebab Yehuda bersukacita karena para imam dan orang-orang Lewi yang bertugas.
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 tugas pelayanan bagi Allah mereka dan tugas pentahiran, demikian juga para penyanyi dan para penunggu pintu gerbang, sesuai dengan perintah Daud dan Salomo, anaknya.
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.
Karena sudah sejak dahulu, pada zaman Daud dan Asaf, ada pemimpin-pemimpin penyanyi, ada nyanyian pujian dan nyanyian 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 Nehemia semua orang Israel memberikan sumbangan bagi para penyanyi dan para penunggu pintu gerbang sekadar yang perlu tiap-tiap hari dan mempersembahkan persembahan kudus kepada orang-orang Lewi. Dan orang-orang Lewi mempersembahkan persembahan kudus kepada anak-anak Harun.
