< Nehemiah 12 >

1 This is a list of the priests and Levites who came back with Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua, the high priest: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,
Àwọn wọ̀nyí ni àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí ó bá Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli àti Jeṣua padà: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Esra,

Sallu, Amoki, Hilkiah, àti Jedaiah. Wọ̀nyí ni olórí àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ wọn ní ìgbà ayé e Jeṣua.
8 The Levites were Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who with his fellow Levites was in charge of the songs of praise.
Àwọn ọmọ Lefi ni Jeṣua, Binnui, Kadmieli, Ṣerebiah, Juda àti Mattaniah ẹni tí òun pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ rẹ̀, ni wọn ṣe àkóso orin ìdúpẹ́.
9 Two other Levites, Bakbukiah and Unni, stood opposite them in the service.
Bakbukiah àti Unni, àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ wọn dúró sí òdìkejì wọn nínú ìsìn.
10 Jeshua the high priest was the father of Joiakim, who was the father of Eliashib, who was the father of Joiada,
Jeṣua ni baba Joiakimu, Joiakimu ni baba Eliaṣibu, Eliaṣibu ni baba Joiada,
11 who was the father of Jonathan, who was the father of Jaddua.
Joiada ni baba Jonatani, Jonatani sì ni baba Jaddua.
12 In Joiakim's time, these were the family leaders of the priests: of the family of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;
Ní ìgbé ayé Joiakimu, wọ̀nyí ni àwọn olórí àwọn ìdílé àwọn àlùfáà: ti ìdílé Seraiah, Meraiah; ti ìdílé Jeremiah, Hananiah;

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.
Àwọn olórí ìdílé àwọn ọmọ Lefi ní ìgbà ayé Eliaṣibu, Joiada, Johanani àti Jaddua, àti pẹ̀lú ti àwọn àlùfáà ni a kọ sílẹ̀ ní ìgbà ìjọba Dariusi ará 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.
Àwọn olórí ìdílé láàrín àwọn ọmọ Lefi títí di àkókò Johanani ọmọ Eliaṣibu ni a kọ sílẹ̀ nínú ìwé ìtàn.
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.
Àti àwọn olórí àwọn ọmọ Lefi ni Haṣabiah, Ṣerebiah, Jeṣua ọmọ Kadmieli, àti àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ wọn, tí wọ́n dúró ní ìdojúkojú wọn láti fi ìyìn àti láti dúpẹ́, apá kan ń dá èkejì lóhùn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Dafidi ènìyàn Ọlọ́run.
25 They were joined by Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, and Obadiah. Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storehouses at the gates.
Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meṣullamu, Talmoni àti Akkubu ni aṣọ́nà tí wọ́n ń sọ yàrá ìkó nǹkan pamọ́ sí ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
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.
Wọ́n ṣiṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ní ìgbà ayé e Joiakimu ọmọ Jeṣua, ọmọ Josadaki, àti ní ọjọ́ ọ Nehemiah baálẹ̀ àti ní ọjọ́ Esra àlùfáà àti akọ̀wé.
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.
Nígbà ìyàsímímọ́ odi Jerusalẹmu a mú àwọn ọmọ Lefi jáde wá láti ibi tí wọ́n ń gbé, wọ́n sì mú wọn wá sí Jerusalẹmu láti fi ayọ̀ ṣe ayẹyẹ ìyàsímímọ́ pẹ̀lú orin ìdúpẹ́ àti pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin kimbali, haapu àti ohun èlò orin olókùn.
28 The singers were also brought in from the area around Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites,
A kó àwọn akọrin náà jọ papọ̀ láti àwọn ìletò tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu náà ká—láti àwọn abúlé 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.
láti Beti-Gilgali, àti láti àwọn agbègbè Geba àti Asmafeti, nítorí àwọn akọrin ti kọ́ àwọn ìletò fúnra wọn ní agbègbè Jerusalẹmu.
30 Once the priests and the Levites had purified themselves, they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.
Nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi ti ya ara wọn sí mímọ́, wọ́n ya àwọn ènìyàn sí mímọ́, àti ẹnu ibodè àti odi pẹ̀lú.
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.
Mo sì tún yan àwọn olórí Juda láti gun orí odi náà. Mo sì tún yan àwọn ẹgbẹ́ akọrin ńlá méjì láti dúpẹ́. Àwọn kan yóò gòkè odi lọ sí apá ọ̀tún sí ọ̀nà ibodè Ààtàn.
32 Hoshaiah and half the leaders of Judah followed them,
Hoṣaiah àti ìdajì àwọn olórí Juda tẹ̀lé wọn,
33 with Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,
àwọn wọ̀nyí náà sì lọ pẹ̀lú wọn, Asariah, Esra, Meṣullamu,
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
Juda, Benjamini, Ṣemaiah, 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,
pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà díẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìpè, pẹ̀lú u Sekariah ọmọ Jonatani, ọmọ Ṣemaiah, ọmọ Mattaniah, ọmọ Mikaiah, ọmọ Sakkuri, ọmọ Asafu,
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.
àti àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ rẹ̀, Ṣemaiah, Asareeli, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Netaneli, Juda àti Hanani—pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin bí àṣẹ Dafidi ènìyàn Ọlọ́run. Esra akọ̀wé ni ó ṣáájú wọn bí wọ́n ti ń tò lọ lọ́wọ̀ọ̀wọ́.
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.
Ní ẹnu ibodè orísun wọ́n ti ń lọ tààrà sí ọ̀nà ní orí àtẹ̀gùn ìlú Dafidi ní orí òkè tí ó kángun sí odi, wọ́n sì gba ẹ̀gbẹ́ ilé Dafidi kọjá títí dé ẹnu ibodè omi ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn.
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,
Àwọn ẹgbẹ́ akọrin kejì gba ọ̀nà òdìkejì lọ. Mo tẹ̀lé wọn ní orí odi, pẹ̀lú ìdajì àwọn ènìyàn, kọjá ilé ìṣọ́ ìléru lọ sí odi fífẹ̀,
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.
kọjá ẹnu ibodè Efraimu ibodè Jeṣana, ẹnu ibodè ẹja, ilé ìṣọ́ Hananeli àti ilé ìṣọ́ ọgọ́rùn-ún, títí dé ẹnu ibodè àgùntàn. Wọ́n sì dúró ní ibodè ìṣọ́.
40 Both thanksgiving choirs then took their places in God's Temple. I followed with the group of leaders that was with me,
Àwọn ẹgbẹ́ akọrin méjèèjì tí wọ́n dúpẹ́ wà ní ààyè nínú ilé Ọlọ́run, èmi náà sì dúró ní ààyè mi pẹ̀lú ìdajì àwọn ìjòyè,
41 along with the priests blowing their trumpets: Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah.
àti àwọn àlùfáà Eliakimu, Maaseiah, Miniamini, Mikaiah, Elioenai, Sekariah àti Hananiah pẹ̀lú àwọn ìpè wọn.
42 Then came the singers Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer, and the choirs sang, directed by Jezrahiah.
Àti pẹ̀lú Maaseiah, Ṣemaiah, Eleasari àti Ussi, àti Jehohanani, àti Malkiah, àti Elamu, àti Eseri. Àwọn akọrin kọrin sókè ní abẹ́ alábojútó Jesrahiah.
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.
Ní ọjọ́ náà wọ́n rú ẹbọ ńlá, wọ́n ṣe àjọyọ̀ nítorí Ọlọ́run ti fún wọn ní ayọ̀ ńlá. Àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn ọmọdé sì yọ̀ pẹ̀lú. A lè gbọ́ ariwo ayọ̀ tí ó jáde láti Jerusalẹmu ní jìnnà réré.
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.
Ní àkókò náà, a yan àwọn ènìyàn láti jẹ́ alábojútó yàrá ìṣúra fún àwọn ọrẹ àkọ́so èso àti àwọn ìdámẹ́wàá. Láti inú àwọn oko tí ó wà ní àyíká ìlú ni wọ́n ti ní láti mú wá sínú yàrá ìṣúra, ìpín tí òfin sọ fún àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi, nítorí inú àwọn ará a Juda yọ́ sí àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi tó ń ṣiṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́.
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.
Wọ́n ń ṣiṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn àti iṣẹ́ ìyàsímímọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ náà ni fún àwọn akọrin àti àwọn aṣọ́nà, wọ́n ń ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Dafidi àti Solomoni ọmọ rẹ̀ ti pàṣẹ fún wọn.
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.
Ní ọjọ́ pípẹ́ sẹ́yìn ní ìgbà Dafidi àti Asafu, ni àwọn atọ́nisọ́nà ti wà fún àwọn akọrin àti fún orin ìyìn àti orin ọpẹ́ sí Ọlọ́run.
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.
Nítorí náà ní ìgbà ayé Serubbabeli àti Nehemiah, gbogbo Israẹli ni ó ń dá ìpín lójoojúmọ́ fún àwọn akọrin àti àwọn aṣọ́nà. Wọ́n sì tún yan ìpín mìíràn sọ́tọ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi tókù, àwọn ọmọ Lefi náà tún ya ìpín ti àwọn ọmọ Aaroni sọ́tọ̀ fún wọn.
