1 Chronicles 9
1 So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies; and, behold, they [were] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah, [who] were carried away to Babylon for their transgression.
Aisraeli onse analembedwa potsata mibado yawo mʼbuku la mafumu a Aisraeli. Anthu a ku Yuda anatengedwa kunka ku ukapolo ku Babuloni chifukwa cha kusakhulupirika kwawo.
2 Now the first inhabitants that [dwelt] in their possessions in their cities [were], the Israelites, the priests, Levites, and the Nethinims.
Tsono anthu oyamba kukhala mʼmadera awo anali Aisraeli wamba, ansembe, Alevi ndi otumikira ku Nyumba ya Yehova.
3 And in Jerusalem dwelt of the children of Judah, and of the children of Benjamin, and of the children of Ephraim, and Manasseh;
Anthu a ku Yuda, Benjamini ndi Efereimu ndiponso Manase amene anakhala mu Yerusalemu anali awa:
4 Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, of the children of Pharez the son of Judah.
Utai mwana wa Amihudi, mwana wa Omuri, mwana wa Imuri, mwana wa Bani, chidzukulu cha Perezi mwana wa Yuda.
5 And of the Shilonites; Asaiah the firstborn, and his sons.
A banja la Siloni: Asaya mwana wake woyamba pamodzi ndi ana ake.
6 And of the sons of Zerah; Jeuel, and their brethren, six hundred and ninety.
A banja la Zera: Yeueli. Anthu ochokera ku Yuda analipo 690.
7 And of the sons of Benjamin; Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hasenuah,
A fuko la Benjamini: Salu mwana wa Mesulamu, mwana wa Hodaviya, mwana wa Hasenuya;
8 And Ibneiah the son of Jeroham, and Elah the son of Uzzi, the son of Michri, and Meshullam the son of Shephathiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah;
Ibineya mwana wa Yerohamu; Ela mwana wa Uzi, mwana wa Mikiri; ndi Mesulamu mwana wa Sefatiya, mwana wa Reueli mwana wa Ibiniya.
9 And their brethren, according to their generations, nine hundred and fifty and six. All these men [were] chief of the fathers in the house of their fathers.
Anthu ochokera ku Benjamini monga analembedwera mwa mibado yawo, analipo 956. Anthu onsewa anali atsogoleri a mabanja awo.
10 And of the priests; Jedaiah, and Jehoiarib, and Jachin,
Ansembe: Yedaya, Yehoyaribu; Yakini;
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;
Azariya mwana wa Hilikiya, mwana wa Mesulamu, mwana wa Zadoki mwana wa Merayoti, mwana wa Ahitubi, wamkulu woyangʼanira Nyumba ya Mulungu;
12 And Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashur, the son of Malchijah, and Maasiai the son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer;

13 And their brethren, heads of the house of their fathers, a thousand and seven hundred and threescore; very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.
Ansembe amene anali atsogoleri a mabanja awo analipo 1,760. Anali anthu amphamvu ndi odziwa kutumikira mʼnyumba ya Mulungu.
14 And of the Levites; Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari;
Alevi: Semaya mwana wa Hasubu, mwana wa Azirikamu, mwana wa Hasabiya, wa mʼbanja la Merari;
15 And Bakbakkar, Heresh, and Galal, and Mattaniah the son of Micah, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph;
Bakibakara, Heresi, Galali ndi Mataniya mwana wa Mika, mwana wa Zikiri, mwana wa Asafu;
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.
Obadiya mwana wa Semaya mwana wa Galali, mwana wa Yedutuni ndi Berekiya mwana wa Asa, mwana wa Elikana, amene ankakhala ku midzi ya Anetofati.
17 And the porters [were], Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, and their brethren: Shallum [was] the chief;
Alonda a pa makomo: Salumu, Akubu, Talimoni, Ahimani ndi abale awo. Mtsogoleri wawo anali Salumu.
18 Who hitherto [waited] in the king’s gate eastward: they [were] porters in the companies of the children of Levi.
Amenewa amakhala pa chipata cha mfumu kummawa mpaka lero lino. Alonda a gulu la Alevi anali awa:
19 And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, of the house of his father, the Korahites, [were] over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the tabernacle: and their fathers, [being] over the host of the LORD, [were] keepers of the entry.
Salumu mwana wa Kore, mwana wa Ebiyasafu, mwana wa Kora, pamodzi ndi abale ake a ku banja la makolo ake, Akora aja ankanyangʼanira khomo la Tenti monga ankachitira abambo awo polondera khomo la malo okhalapo Yehova.
20 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them in time past, [and] the LORD [was] with him.
Masiku oyamba Finehasi mwana wa Eliezara anali woyangʼanira alonda apakhomo ndipo Yehova anali naye.
21 [And] Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah [was] porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Zekariya mwana wa Meselemiya anali mlonda woyangʼanira pa chipata cha tenti ya msonkhano.
22 All these [which were] chosen to be porters in the gates [were] two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office.
Onse amene anasankhidwa kukhala alonda pa khonde analipo 212. Iwo analembedwa mwa mibado yawo ku midzi yawo. Davide ndi mneneri Samueli ndiwo anawayika mʼmalo awo antchito chifukwa cha kukhulupirika kwawo.
23 So they and their children [had] the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, [namely], the house of the tabernacle, by wards.
Iwo ndi zidzukulu zawo anali oyangʼanira zipata za nyumba ya Yehova imene imatchedwa Tenti.
24 In four quarters were the porters, toward the east, west, north, and south.
Alonda apakhomowa anali mbali zonse zinayi: kummawa, kumadzulo, kumpoto ndi kummwera.
25 And their brethren, [which were] in their villages, [were] to come after seven days from time to time with them.
Abale awo a ku midzi yawo amabwera nthawi ndi nthawi kudzagwira ntchito yawo kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
26 For these Levites, the four chief porters, were in [their] set office, and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.
Koma atsogoleri akuluakulu anayi a alonda, amene anali Alevi, anapatsidwa udindo woyangʼanira zipinda ndi chuma cha nyumba ya Mulungu.
27 And they lodged round about the house of God, because the charge [was] upon them, and the opening thereof every morning [pertained] to them.
Iwo amakhala usiku wonse atayima mozungulira Nyumba ya Mulungu, chifukwa anayenera kuyilondera. Ndipo anali ndi kiyi wotsekulira mmawa uliwonse.
28 And [certain] of them had the charge of the ministering vessels, that they should bring them in and out by tale.
Ena amayangʼanira zipangizo zimene amagwiritsa ntchito pa ntchito mʼNyumba ya Mulungu. Iwo amaziwerenga zikamalowetsedwa ndi potulutsidwa.
29 [Some] of them also [were] appointed to oversee the vessels, and all the instruments of the sanctuary, and the fine flour, and the wine, and the oil, and the frankincense, and the spices.
Ena anapatsidwa udindo wosamalira zipangizo ndi zinthu zina zonse za ku malo opatulika, pamodzi ndi ufa, vinyo, mafuta, lubani ndi zonunkhira.
30 And [some] of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices.
Koma ansembe ena amasakaniza zonunkhirazo.
31 And Mattithiah, [one] of the Levites, who [was] the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were made in the pans.
Mlevi wotchedwa Matitiya mwana woyamba wa Salumu wa mʼbanja la Kora, anapatsidwa udindo woyangʼanira zophikidwa mʼziwaya.
32 And [other] of their brethren, of the sons of the Kohathites, [were] over the shewbread, to prepare [it] every sabbath.
Abale ake ena a mʼbanja la Akohati amaphika buledi wa pa Sabata lililonse amene amayikidwa pa tebulo.
33 And these [are] the singers, chief of the fathers of the Levites, [who remaining] in the chambers [were] free: for they were employed in [that] work day and night.
Atsogoleri a mabanja a Alevi, amene anali ndi luso loyimba, amakhala mʼzipinda za Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo samagwira ntchito zina chifukwa ankatumikira usana ndi usiku.
34 These chief fathers of the Levites [were] chief throughout their generations; these dwelt at Jerusalem.
Onsewa anali atsogoleri a mabanja a Alevi, akuluakulu monga analembedwera pa mibado yawo, ndipo ankakhala mu Yerusalemu.
35 And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jehiel, whose wife’s name [was] Maachah:
Yeiyeli abambo a Gibiyoni ankakhala ku Gibiyoni. Dzina la akazi awo linali Maaka,
36 And his firstborn son Abdon, then Zur, and Kish, and Baal, and Ner, and Nadab,
ndipo mwana wawo woyamba kubadwa anali Abidoni, motsatana ndi Zuri, Kisi, Baala, Neri, Nadabu,
37 And Gedor, and Ahio, and Zechariah, and Mikloth.
Gedori, Ahiyo, Zekariya ndi Mikiloti.
38 And Mikloth begat Shimeam. And they also dwelt with their brethren at Jerusalem, over against their brethren.
Mikiloti anabereka Simeamu. Iwonso ankakhala ndi abale awo ku Yerusalemu.
39 And Ner begat Kish; and Kish begat Saul; and Saul begat Jonathan, and Malchi-shua, and Abinadab, and Esh-baal.

40 And the son of Jonathan [was] Merib-baal: and Merib-baal begat Micah.
Mwana wa Yonatani anali Meri-Baala, amene anabereka Mika.
41 And the sons of Micah [were], Pithon, and Melech, and Tahrea, [and Ahaz].
Ana a Mika anali: Pitoni, Meleki, Tahireya ndi Ahazi.
42 And Ahaz begat Jarah; and Jarah begat Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begat Moza;
Ahazi anabereka Yara, Yara anabereka Alemeti, Azimaveti ndi Zimuri, ndipo Zimiri anabereka Moza.
43 And Moza begat Binea; and Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son.
Moza anabereka Bineya. Ana ake anali Refaya, Eleasa ndi Azeli.
44 And Azel had six sons, whose names [are] these, Azrikam, Bocheru, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan: these [were] the sons of Azel.
Azeli anali ndi ana asanu ndi mmodzi ndipo mayina awo anali awa: Azirikamu, Bokeru, Ismaeli, Seariya, Obadiya ndi Hanani. Awa anali ana a Azeli.
