1 Chronicles 23
1 Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
Un kad Dāvids bija vecs un savu laiku nodzīvojis, tad tas savu dēlu Salamanu cēla par ķēniņu pār Israēli.
2 And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
Un (Dāvids) sapulcēja visus Israēla virsniekus un priesterus un Levitus.
3 And the Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.
Un Leviti tapa skaitīti no trīsdesmit gadiem un pārāk, un viņu skaits pēc viņu vīru galvām bija trīsdesmit astoņi tūkstoši.
4 Of these, twenty and four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges;
No tiem bija divdesmit četri tūkstoši nolikti pie Tā Kunga nama darba, un seši tūkstoš uzraugi un tiesneši.
5 and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised the LORD 'with the instruments which I made to praise therewith.'
Un četri tūkstoš vārtu sargi un četri tūkstoš Tā Kunga dziedātāji ar spēlēm, ko es esmu iecēlis, Dievu teikt (sacīja Dāvids).
6 And David divided them into courses according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
Un Dāvids tos dalīja kārtās, pēc Levja bērniem, Geršona, Kehāta un Merarus.
7 Of the Gershonites: Ladan, and Shimei.
No Geršona bērniem bija Laēdans un Šimejus.
8 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
Laēdana bērni bija: Jeīels, virsnieks, un Zetams un Joēls, tie trīs.
9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers' houses of Ladan.
Šimejus bērni bija: Zalomits un Aziēls un Hārans, tie trīs; šie bija Laēdana tēvu nama virsnieki.
10 And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
Un Šimejus bērni bija: Jakats, Zinus un Jeūs un Brija; šie četri bija Šimejus bērni.
11 And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they became a fathers' house in one reckoning.
Un Jakats bija pirmais un Zinus otrais. Bet Jeūm un Brijam nebija daudz bērnu, tāpēc tie tapa skaitīti par vienu tēva namu.
12 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
Un Kehāta bērni bija: Amrams, Jecears, Hebrons un Uziēls, tie četri.
13 The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated, that he should be sanctified as most holy, he and his sons for ever, to offer before the LORD, to minister unto Him, and to bless in His name for ever.
Amrama bērni bija Ārons un Mozus. Un Āronu atšķīra, ka tas taptu svētīts visusvētākajā amatā līdz ar saviem dēliem mūžīgi, kvēpināt priekš Tā Kunga vaiga un viņam kalpot un svētīt viņa vārdā mūžīgi.
14 But as for Moses the man of God, his sons are named among the tribe of Levi.
Un Mozus, Tā Dieva vīra, bērni bija skaitīti pie Levitu cilts.
15 The sons of Moses: Gershom, and Eliezer.
Mozus bērni bija: Ģerzoms un Eliēzers.
16 The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
Ģerzoma bērni bija Zebuēls, virsnieks.
17 And the sons of Eliezer were: Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had no other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
Un Eliēzeram bērni bija: Rekabeja, virsnieks. Un Eliēzeram nebija citu bērnu. Bet Rekabejas bērni vairojās daudz vairāk.
18 The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
Jeceara bērni bija: virsnieks Zalomits.
19 The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
Hebrona bērni bija: Jerija tas pirmais, Amarija otrais, Jeaziēls trešais, un Jakmeams ceturtais.
20 The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
Uziēļa bērni bija: Miha tas pirmais un Jezija otrais.
21 The sons of Merari: Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar, and Kish.
Merarus bērni bija: Maēlus un Muzus. Maēlus bērni bija: Eleazars un Ķis.
22 And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their brethren the sons of Kish took them to wife.
Un Eleazars nomira, un tam dēlu nebija, bet meitas vien, un Ķisa bērni, viņu brāļi, tās apņēma.
23 The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
Muzus bērni bija Maēlns, Eders un Jeremots, tie trīs.
24 These were the sons of Levi after their fathers' houses, even the heads of the fathers' houses, according to their muster, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from twenty years old and upward.
Šie bija Levja bērni pēc savu tēvu namiem, savu tēvu namu virsnieki, kas pēc vārdiem tapa skaitīti pēc viņu galvām; tie stāvēja kalpošanas darbā Tā Kunga namā, divdesmit gadus veci un vairāk.
25 For David said: 'The LORD, the God of Israel, hath given rest unto His people, and He dwelleth in Jerusalem for ever;
Jo Dāvids bija sacījis: Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, Saviem ļaudīm dusu devis, un Viņš Jeruzālemē mājos mūžīgi.
26 and also the Levites shall no more have need to carry the tabernacle and all the vessels of it for the service thereof.'
Tad arī Levitiem vairs nebija jānes tas dzīvoklis, nedz kādas citas lietas, kas pie tā amata piederēja.
27 For by the last ordinances of David the sons of Levi were numbered from twenty years old and upward.
Bet pēc Dāvida pēdējiem vārdiem Levja bērni tapa skaitīti, divdesmit gadus veci un vairāk,
28 For their station was at the side of the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of the house of God;
Ka tiem bija jāstāv apakš Ārona bērnu rokas, kalpot Tā Kunga nama pagalmā un mantas kambaros un tīrīt visas svētās lietas un stāvēt Dieva nama kalpošanā,
29 for the showbread also, and for the fine flour for a meal-offering, whether of unleavened wafers, or of that which is baked on the griddle, or of that which is soaked, and for all manner of measure and size;
Un pie Dieva priekšā noliekamām maizēm un ēdamo upuru kviešu miltiem un neraudzētām karašām un pannām un ceptiem raušiem un pie visiem svariem un mēriem,
30 and to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even;
Un ik rītu stāvēt, To Kungu teikt un slavēt, tāpat arī ik vakaru,
31 and to offer all burnt-offerings unto the LORD, on the sabbaths, on the new moons, and in the appointed seasons, in number according to the ordinance concerning them, continually, before the LORD;
Un upurēt visus dedzināmos upurus svētdienās, jaunos mēnešos un svētkos pēc sava skaita un tiesas Tā Kunga priekšā vienmēr,
32 and that they should keep the charge of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, for the service of the house of the LORD.
Un sargāt saiešanas telti un svēto vietu un kalpot saviem brāļiem, Ārona bērniem, Tā Kunga nama kalpošanā.
