2 And Meshelemyahu had sons: Zecharyahu the first-born, Jedi'ael the second, Zebaiyahu the third, Jathniel the fourth,

6 Also unto Shema'yah his son there were born sons, that were rulers for the house of their father; for they were mighty men of valor.
Shemaya mwanawe pia alikuwa na wana, waliokuwa viongozi katika jamaa ya baba yao kwa sababu walikuwa watu wenye uwezo mkubwa.
7 The sons of Shema'yah were 'Othni, and Rephael, and 'Obed, [and] Elsahad, his brothers [were] valiant men, Elihu, and Semachyahu.
Wana wa Shemaya ni: Othni, Refaeli, Obedi na Elizabadi; jamaa zake Elihu na Semakia walikuwa pia watu wenye uwezo.
8 All these were of the sons of 'Obed-edom: they and their sons and their brethren were valiant men in strength for the service, being sixty and two [descendants] of 'Obed-edom.
Hawa wote walikuwa wazao wa Obed-Edomu; wao na wana wao na jamaa zao walikuwa watu wenye uwezo pamoja na nguvu za kufanya kazi. Wazao wa Obed-Edomu jumla yao walikuwa sitini na wawili.

12 These divisions of the gatekeepers, after the chief men, had the watch along with their brethren, to minister in the house of the Lord.

13 And they cast lots, the small as well as the great, according to their family divisions, for each and every gate.
Kura zilipigwa kwa kila lango, kufuatana na jamaa zao, wakubwa kwa wadogo.
14 And the lot at the east fell for Shelemyahu. And for Zecharyahu his son, an intelligent counsellor, they cast lots, and his lot came out at the north.
Kura ya Lango la Mashariki ilimwangukia Shelemia. Kisha wakapiga kura kwa Zekaria mwanawe, aliyekuwa mshauri mwenye hekima, nayo kura ya Lango la Kaskazini ikamwangukia.
15 For 'Obed-edom at the south; and to his sons [was assigned] the house of Assuppim.

Kura za Lango la Magharibi na Lango la Shalekethi kwenye barabara ya juu zikawaangukia Shupimu na Hosa. Zamu za walinzi ziligawanywa kwa usawa:
17 At the east were six Levites, at the north four for every day, at the south four for every day, and for [the house of] Assuppim always two.
Kulikuwa na Walawi sita kila siku upande wa mashariki, wanne upande wa kaskazini, wanne upande wa kusini, na wawili wawili kwa mara moja kwenye ghala.
18 At the Parbar on the west, four at the causeway, and two at the Parbar.
Kuhusu ukumbi kuelekea magharibi, kulikuwa na wanne barabarani na wawili kwenye ukumbi wenyewe.
19 These are the divisions of the gatekeepers of the sons of the Korchites, and of the sons of Merari.
Hii ndiyo iliyokuwa migawanyo ya mabawabu waliokuwa wazao wa Kora na wa Merari.
20 And of the Levites, Achiyah was over the treasuries of the house of God, and over the treasuries of the holy things.

23 Of the 'Amramites, of the Yizharites, of the Hebronites, and of the 'Uzzielites,
Kutoka kwa wana wa Amramu, wana wa Ishari, wana wa Hebroni na wana wa Uzieli:
24 [Was] even Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, superintendent of the treasuries.
Shebueli, mzao wa Gershomu mwana wa Mose, alikuwa afisa mwangalizi wa hazina.
25 And his brethren by Eli'ezer: Rechabyahu his son, and Jesha'yahu his son, and Joram his son, and Zichri his son, and Shelomoth his son.
Jamaa zake kutoka kwa Eliezeri, wanawe walikuwa: Rehabia, Yeshaya, Yoramu, Zikri na Shelomithi.
26 This Shelomoth and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the holy things, which king David had sanctified, together with the chiefs of the family divisions, the captains over the thousands and the hundreds, and the captains of the army.
Shelomithi na jamaa zake walikuwa waangalizi wa hazina zote za vitu vile vilivyowekwa wakfu na Mfalme Daudi, kwa viongozi wa jamaa waliokuwa majemadari wa maelfu na majemadari wa mamia, na kwa maafisa wengine wa jeshi.
27 Out of the wars, and out of the booty did they sanctify to maintain the house of the Lord.

Kutoka kwa wana wa Hebroni: Hashabia na jamaa zake, watu 1,700 wenye uwezo, waliwajibika katika Israeli magharibi ya Yordani kwa ajili ya kazi zote za Bwana na utumishi wa mfalme.
31 Of the Hebronites was Jeriyah the chief, for the Hebronites, according to their generations by families. In the fortieth year of the reign of David were they inquired into, and there were found among them mighty men of valor at Ja'zer of Gil'ad.
Kuhusu wana wa Hebroni, Yeria alikuwa mkuu wao kufuatana na orodha ya jamaa yao. Katika mwaka wa arobaini wa utawala wa Daudi uchunguzi ulifanyika katika kumbukumbu, nao watu wenye uwezo miongoni mwa wana wa Hebroni wakapatikana huko Yazeri katika Gileadi.
