1 Chronicles 9

1 So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies; and, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel; and Judah was carried away captive to Babylon because of their transgression.

וְכׇל־יִשְׂרָאֵל הִתְיַחְשׂוּ וְהִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל־סֵפֶר מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וִיהוּדָה הׇגְלוּ לְבָבֶל בְּמַעֲלָֽם׃

2 Now the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions in their cities were, Israelites, the priests, the Levites, and the Nethinim.

וְהַיּֽוֹשְׁבִים הָרִאשֹׁנִים אֲשֶׁר בַּאֲחֻזָּתָם בְּעָרֵיהֶם יִשְׂרָאֵל הַכֹּהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם וְהַנְּתִינִֽים׃

3 And in Jerusalem dwelt of the children of Judah, and of the children of Benjamin, and of the children of Ephraim and Manasseh:

וּבִירוּשָׁלַ͏ִם יָשְׁבוּ מִן־בְּנֵי יְהוּדָה וּמִן־בְּנֵי בִנְיָמִן וּמִן־בְּנֵי אֶפְרַיִם וּמְנַשֶּֽׁה׃

4 Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, of the children of Perez the son of Judah.

עוּתַי בֶּן־עַמִּיהוּד בֶּן־עׇמְרִי בֶּן־אִמְרִי בֶן־(בנימן)־[בָּנִי מִן־]בְּנֵי־פֶרֶץ בֶּן־יְהוּדָֽה׃

5 And of the Shilonites: Asaiah the first-born and his sons.

וּמִן־הַשִּׁילוֹנִי עֲשָׂיָה הַבְּכוֹר וּבָנָֽיו׃

6 And of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel, and their brethren, six hundred and ninety.

וּמִן־בְּנֵי־זֶרַח יְעוּאֵל וַאֲחֵיהֶם שֵׁשׁ־מֵאוֹת וְתִשְׁעִֽים׃

7 And of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah,

וּמִן־בְּנֵי בִּנְיָמִן סַלּוּא בֶּן־מְשֻׁלָּם בֶּן־הוֹדַוְיָה בֶּן־הַסְּנֻאָֽה׃

8 and Ibneiah the son of Jeroham, and Elah the son of Uzzi, the son of Michri, and Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibneiah;

וְיִבְנְיָה בֶּן־יְרֹחָם וְאֵלָה בֶן־עֻזִּי בֶּן־מִכְרִי וּמְשֻׁלָּם בֶּן־שְׁפַטְיָה בֶּן־רְעוּאֵל בֶּן־יִבְנִיָּֽה׃

9 and their brethren, according to their generations, nine hundred and fifty and six. All these men were heads of fathers' houses by their fathers' houses.

וַֽאֲחֵיהֶם לְתֹלְדוֹתָם תְּשַׁע מֵאוֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁים וְשִׁשָּׁה כׇּל־אֵלֶּה אֲנָשִׁים רָאשֵׁי אָבוֹת לְבֵית אֲבֹתֵיהֶֽם׃

10 And of the priests: Jedaiah, and Jehoiarib, and Jachin;

וּמִן־הַֽכֹּהֲנִים יְדַעְיָה וִיהוֹיָרִיב וְיָכִֽין׃

11 and Azariah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the ruler of the house of God;

וַעֲזַרְיָה בֶן־חִלְקִיָּה בֶּן־מְשֻׁלָּם בֶּן־צָדוֹק בֶּן־מְרָיוֹת בֶּן־אֲחִיטוּב נְגִיד בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃

12 and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah, and Maasai the son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer;

וַעֲדָיָה בֶּן־יְרֹחָם בֶּן־פַּשְׁחוּר בֶּן־מַלְכִּיָּה וּמַעְשַׂי בֶּן־עֲדִיאֵל בֶּן־יַחְזֵרָה בֶּן־מְשֻׁלָּם בֶּן־מְשִׁלֵּמִית בֶּן־אִמֵּֽר׃

13 and their brethren, heads of their fathers' houses, a thousand and seven hundred and threescore; very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.

וַאֲחֵיהֶם רָאשִׁים לְבֵית אֲבוֹתָם אֶלֶף וּשְׁבַע מֵאוֹת וְשִׁשִּׁים גִּבּוֹרֵי חֵיל מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית־הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃

14 And of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari;

וּמִֽן־הַלְוִיִּם שְׁמַֽעְיָה בֶן־חַשּׁוּב בֶּן־עַזְרִיקָם בֶּן־חֲשַׁבְיָה מִן־בְּנֵי מְרָרִֽי׃

15 and Bakbakkar, Heresh, and Galal, and Mattaniah the son of Mica, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph;

וּבַקְבַּקַּר חֶרֶשׁ וְגָלָל וּמַתַּנְיָה בֶּן־מִיכָא בֶּן־זִכְרִי בֶּן־אָסָֽף׃

16 and Obadiah the son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun, and Berechiah the son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, that dwelt in the villages of the Netophathites.

וְעֹֽבַדְיָה בֶּֽן־שְׁמַעְיָה בֶּן־גָּלָל בֶּן־יְדוּתוּן וּבֶרֶכְיָה בֶן־אָסָא בֶּן־אֶלְקָנָה הַיּוֹשֵׁב בְּחַצְרֵי נְטוֹפָתִֽי׃

17 And the porters: Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, and their brother Shallum the chief;

וְהַשֹּֽׁעֲרִים שַׁלּוּם וְעַקּוּב וְטַלְמֹן וַאֲחִימָן וַאֲחִיהֶם שַׁלּוּם הָרֹֽאשׁ׃

18 who hitherto waited in the king's gate eastward; they were the porters for the camp of the children of Levi.

וְֽעַד־הֵנָּה בְּשַׁעַר הַמֶּלֶךְ מִזְרָחָה הֵמָּה הַשֹּׁעֲרִים לְמַחֲנוֹת בְּנֵי לֵוִֽי׃

19 And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, of his father's house, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the Tent; and their fathers had been over the camp of the LORD, keepers of the entry;

וְשַׁלּוּם בֶּן־קוֹרֵא בֶּן־אֶבְיָסָף בֶּן־קֹרַח וְֽאֶחָיו לְבֵית־אָבִיו הַקׇּרְחִים עַל מְלֶאכֶת הָעֲבוֹדָה שֹׁמְרֵי הַסִּפִּים לָאֹהֶל וַאֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם עַל־מַחֲנֵה יְהֹוָה שֹׁמְרֵי הַמָּבֽוֹא׃

20 and Phinehas the son of Eleazar was ruler over them in time past, the LORD being with him.

וּפִֽינְחָס בֶּן־אֶלְעָזָר נָגִיד הָיָה עֲלֵיהֶם לְפָנִים יְהֹוָה ׀ עִמּֽוֹ׃

21 Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was porter of the door of the tent of meeting.

זְכַרְיָה בֶּן מְשֶֽׁלֶמְיָה שֹׁעֵר פֶּתַח לְאֹהֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃

22 All these that were chosen to be porters in the gates were two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office.

כֻּלָּם הַבְּרוּרִים לְשֹׁעֲרִים בַּסִּפִּים מָאתַיִם וּשְׁנֵים עָשָׂר הֵמָּה בְחַצְרֵיהֶם הִתְיַחְשָׂם הֵמָּה יִסַּד דָּוִיד וּשְׁמוּאֵל הָרֹאֶה בֶּאֱמוּנָתָֽם׃

23 So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, even the house of the Tent, by wards.

וְהֵם וּבְנֵיהֶם עַל־הַשְּׁעָרִים לְבֵית־יְהֹוָה לְבֵית הָאֹהֶל לְמִשְׁמָרֽוֹת׃

24 On the four sides were the porters, toward the east, west, north, and south.

לְאַרְבַּע רוּחוֹת יִהְיוּ הַשֹּׁעֲרִים מִזְרָח יָמָּה צָפוֹנָה וָנֶֽגְבָּה׃

25 And their brethren, in their villages, were to come in every seven days from time to time to be with them;

וַאֲחֵיהֶם בְּחַצְרֵיהֶם לָבוֹא לְשִׁבְעַת הַיָּמִים מֵעֵת אֶל־עֵת עִם־אֵֽלֶּה׃

26 for the four chief porters were in a set office. These were the Levites. They were also over the chambers and over the treasuries in the house of God.

כִּי בֶאֱמוּנָה הֵמָּה אַרְבַּעַת גִּבֹּרֵי הַשֹּׁעֲרִים הֵם הַלְוִיִּם וְהָיוּ עַל־הַלְּשָׁכוֹת וְעַל הָאֹצְרוֹת בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃

27 And they lodged round about the house of God, because the charge thereof was upon them, and to them pertained the opening thereof morning by morning.

וּסְבִיבוֹת בֵּית־הָאֱלֹהִים יָלִינוּ כִּֽי־עֲלֵיהֶם מִשְׁמֶרֶת וְהֵם עַל־הַמַּפְתֵּחַ וְלַבֹּקֶר לַבֹּֽקֶר׃

28 And certain of them had charge of the vessels of service; for by tale were they brought in and by tale were they taken out.

וּמֵהֶם עַל־כְּלֵי הָעֲבוֹדָה כִּֽי־בְמִסְפָּר יְבִיאוּם וּבְמִסְפָּר יוֹצִיאֽוּם׃

29 Some of them also were appointed over the furniture, and over all the holy vessels, and over the fine flour, and the wine, and the oil, and the frankincense, and the spices.

וּמֵהֶם מְמֻנִּים עַל־הַכֵּלִים וְעַל כׇּל־כְּלֵי הַקֹּדֶשׁ וְעַל־הַסֹּלֶת וְהַיַּיִן וְהַשֶּׁמֶן וְהַלְּבוֹנָה וְהַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃

30 And some of the sons of the priests prepared the confection of the spices.

וּמִן־בְּנֵי הַכֹּהֲנִים רֹקְחֵי הַמִּרְקַחַת לַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃

31 And Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were baked on griddles.

וּמַתִּתְיָה מִן־הַלְוִיִּם הוּא הַבְּכוֹר לְשַׁלֻּם הַקׇּרְחִי בֶּאֱמוּנָה עַל מַעֲשֵׂה הַחֲבִתִּֽים׃

32 And some of their brethren, of the sons of the Kohathites, were over the showbread, to prepare it every sabbath.

וּמִן־בְּנֵי הַקְּהָתִי מִן־אֲחֵיהֶם עַל־לֶחֶם הַֽמַּעֲרָכֶת לְהָכִין שַׁבַּת שַׁבָּֽת׃

33 And these are the singers, heads of fathers' houses of the Levites, who dwelt in the chambers and were free from other service; for they were employed in their work day and night.

וְאֵלֶּה הַמְשֹׁרְרִים רָאשֵׁי אָבוֹת לַלְוִיִּם בַּלְּשָׁכֹת (פטירים) [פְּטוּרִים] כִּֽי־יוֹמָם וָלַיְלָה עֲלֵיהֶם בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃

34 These were heads of fathers' houses of the Levites, by their generations, chief men; these dwelt at Jerusalem.

אֵלֶּה רָאשֵׁי הָאָבוֹת לַלְוִיִּם לְתֹלְדוֹתָם רָאשִׁים אֵלֶּה יָשְׁבוּ בִירוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃

35 And in Gibeon there dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jeiel, whose wife's name was Maacah;

וּבְגִבְעוֹן יָשְׁבוּ אֲבִי־גִבְעוֹן (יעואל) [יְעִיאֵל] וְשֵׁם אִשְׁתּוֹ מַעֲכָֽה׃

36 and his first-born son Abdon, and Zur, and Kish, and Baal, and Ner, and Nadab;

וּבְנוֹ הַבְּכוֹר עַבְדּוֹן וְצוּר וְקִישׁ וּבַעַל וְנֵר וְנָדָֽב׃

37 and Gedor, and Ahio, and Zechariah, and Mikloth.

וּגְדוֹר וְאַחְיוֹ וּזְכַרְיָה וּמִקְלֽוֹת׃

38 And Mikloth begot Shimeam. And they also dwelt with their brethren in Jerusalem, over against their brethren.

וּמִקְלוֹת הוֹלִיד אֶת־שִׁמְאָם וְאַף־הֵם נֶגֶד אֲחֵיהֶם יָשְׁבוּ בִירוּשָׁלַ͏ִם עִם־אֲחֵיהֶֽם׃

39 And Ner begot Kish; and Kish begot Saul; and Saul begot Jonathan, and Malchi-shua, and Abinadab, and Eshbaal.

וְנֵר הוֹלִיד אֶת־קִישׁ וְקִישׁ הוֹלִיד אֶת־שָׁאוּל וְשָׁאוּל הוֹלִיד אֶת־יְהֽוֹנָתָן וְאֶת־מַלְכִּישׁוּעַ וְאֶת־אֲבִינָדָב וְאֶת־אֶשְׁבָּֽעַל׃

40 And the son of Jonathan was Merib-baal; and Merib-baal begot Micah.

וּבֶן־יְהוֹנָתָן מְרִיב בָּעַל וּמְרִי־בַעַל הוֹלִיד אֶת־מִיכָֽה׃

41 And the sons of Micah: Pithon, and Melech, and Taharea, and Ahaz.

וּבְנֵי מִיכָה פִּיתֹן וָמֶלֶךְ וְתַחְרֵֽעַ׃

42 And Ahaz begot Jarah; and Jarah begot Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begot Moza.

וְאָחָז הוֹלִיד אֶת־יַעְרָה וְיַעְרָה הוֹלִיד אֶת־עָלֶמֶת וְאֶת־עַזְמָוֶת וְאֶת־זִמְרִי וְזִמְרִי הוֹלִיד אֶת־מוֹצָֽא׃

43 And Moza begot Binea; and Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son.

וּמוֹצָא הוֹלִיד אֶת־בִּנְעָא וּרְפָיָה בְנוֹ אֶלְעָשָׂה בְנוֹ אָצֵל בְּנֽוֹ׃

44 And Azel had six sons, whose names are these: Azrikam, Bocru, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan; these were the sons of Azel.

וּלְאָצֵל שִׁשָּׁה בָנִים וְאֵלֶּה שְׁמוֹתָם עַזְרִיקָם ׀ בֹּכְרוּ וְיִשְׁמָעֵאל וּשְׁעַרְיָה וְעֹבַדְיָה וְחָנָן אֵלֶּה בְּנֵי אָצַֽל׃
