1 Chronicles 24
1 Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Tala bituka ya bana mibali ya Aron: Nadabi, Abiyu, Eleazari mpe Itamari.
2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.
Nadabi mpe Abiyu bakufaki liboso ya tata na bango mpe batikalaki kobota te. Eleazari mpe Itamari basalaki mosala na bango ya bonganga-Nzambe.
3 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
Tala ndenge Davidi akabolaki bango kolanda misala oyo bapesaki bango: Tsadoki, na etuka ya Eleazari; Ayimeleki, na etuka ya Itamari.
4 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
Bamonaki ete kati na bakitani ya Eleazari, bana mibali bazalaki ebele koleka bato oyo bazalaki kati na bakitani ya Itamari. Boye, bakabolaki bana mibali ya Eleazari lokola bakonzi ya mabota zomi na motoba mpe bana mibali ya Itamari lokola bakonzi ya mabota mwambe.
5 Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
Babetaki zeke mpo na kokabola bango, pamba te kati na bakitani ya Eleazari mpe ya Itamari, ezalaki na bakambi ya Esika ya bule mpe bakambi ya mosala ya Nzambe.
6 And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and before the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.
Shemaya, mokomi mikanda, mwana mobali ya Netaneeli, na libota ya Levi, akomaki bakombo na bango na miso ya mokonzi, ya bakambi, ya Nganga-Nzambe Tsadoki, ya Ayimeleki, mwana mobali ya Abiatari; mpe ya bakambi ya mabota ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi. Babetaki zeke mbala mibale mpo na etuka ya Eleazari, mpe mbala moko, mpo na etuka ya Itamari.
7 Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,

18 The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah.
zeke ya tuku mibale na misato ekweyaki epai ya Delaya; zeke ya tuku mibale na minei ekweyaki epai ya Maazia.
19 These were the orderings of them in their service to come into the house of the LORD, according to their manner, under Aaron their father, as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
Ezalaki ndenge wana nde bakabolaki bango mpe bazalaki kolandana kati na mosala mpo na kokota kati na Tempelo ya Yawe. Bazalaki kosala misala na bango kolanda mibeko oyo tata na bango, Aron, apesaki bango, mpe ndenge Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, atindaki ye.
