1 Chronicles 9

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

Batangaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele mpe bakomaki bakombo na bango na buku ya masolo ya bakonzi ya Isalaele. Bato ya Yuda bakendeki na bowumbu na Babiloni mpo na kozanga boyengebene.

2 Now the first inhabitants who lived in their possessions in their cities were Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the Nethinim.

Bato ya liboso kati na bana ya Isalaele oyo bazongaki lisusu kovanda na bingumba na bango, ezalaki: ndambo ya bana ya Isalaele, Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi mpe basali ya Tempelo ya Yawe.

3 In Jerusalem lived of the people of Judah, and of the people of Benjamin, and of the people of Ephraim and Manasseh:

Nzokande, ndambo ya bana mibali ya Yuda, ya Benjame, ya Efrayimi mpe ya Manase bazalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi:

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

Utayi, mwana mobali ya Amiwudi, mwana mobali ya Omiri, mwana mobali ya Imiri, mwana mobali ya Bani, moko kati na bakitani ya Peretsi, mwana mobali ya Yuda.

5 Of the Shelanites: Asaiah the firstborn, and his sons.

Kati na bato ya Shiloni: Asaya, mwana ya liboso, mpe bana na ye ya mibali.

6 Of the sons of Zerah: Jeuel, and their brothers, six hundred ninety.

Kati na bakitani ya Zera: Yeuweli. Mpe bandeko na bango bazalaki nkama motoba na tuku libwa.

7 Of the sons of Benjamin: Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Judah, the son of Hassenuah,

Kati na bakitani ya Benjame: Salu, mwana mobali ya Meshulami, mwana mobali ya Odavia, mwana mobali ya Asenuwa;

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

Yibinea, mwana mobali ya Yeroami; Ela, mwana mobali ya Uzi mpe koko ya Mikiri; mpe Meshulami, mwana mobali ya Shefatia mpe koko ya Reweli, mwana mobali ya Yibiniya.

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

Motango ya bato ya Benjame kolanda ndenge bakomamaki na buku ya mabota na bango, ezalaki nkama libwa na tuku mitano na motoba. Bato oyo nyonso bazalaki bakambi ya bituka na bango.

10 Of the priests: Jedaiah, and Jehoiarib, Jakin,

Kati na Banganga-Nzambe: Yedaeya, Yeoyaribi, 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;

Azaria, mwana mobali ya Ilikia, mwana mobali ya Meshulami, mwana mobali ya Tsadoki, mwana mobali ya Merayoti, mwana mobali ya Ayitubi oyo azalaki mokambi ya Ndako ya Nzambe.

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;

Ezalaki mpe na Adaya, mwana mobali ya Yeroami, mwana mobali ya Pashuri, mwana mobali ya Malikiya; mpe Maesayi, mwana mobali ya Adieli, mwana mobali ya Yazera, mwana mobali ya Meshulami, mwana mobali ya Meshilemiti, mwana mobali ya Imeri.

13 and their brothers, heads of their fathers' houses, one thousand seven hundred sixty; very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.

Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazalaki bakambi ya bituka, bazalaki nkoto moko na nkama sambo na tuku motoba; bazalaki na molende makasi mpo na mosala ya Ndako ya Nzambe.

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

Kati na Balevi: Shemaya, mwana mobali ya Ashubi, mwana mobali ya Azirikami, mwana mobali ya Ashabia, mokitani ya Merari;

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

mpe Bakibakari, Ereshi, Galali mpe Matania, mwana mobali ya Mishe, mwana mobali ya Zikiri, mwana mobali ya Azafi;

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, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.

Abidiasi, mwana mobali ya Shemaya, mwana mobali ya Galali, mwana mobali ya Yedutuni; Berekia, mwana mobali ya Asa, mwana mobali ya Elikana oyo azalaki kovanda na mboka Netofa.

17 The gatekeepers: Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, and their brothers (Shallum was the chief),

Ezalaki mpe na bakengeli bikuke: Shalumi, Akubi, Talimoni, Ayimani mpe bandeko na bango ya mibali. Shalumi nde azalaki mokonzi na bango.

18 who were previously stationed at the King's Gate on the east: they were the gatekeepers for the camp of the descendants of Levi.

Kino lelo, bakitani ya Shalumi bakengelaka ekuke ya ngambo ya este ya Ndako ya Nzambe, ekuke oyo babengaka ekuke ya Mokonzi. Bango wana nde bakengeli bikuke kati na Balevi.

19 Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Abiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brothers, of his father's house, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the thresholds of the tent: and their fathers had been over the camp of Jehovah, keepers of the entry.

Shalumi, mwana mobali ya Kore, mwana mobali ya Ebiazafi, mwana mobali ya Kore elongo na bandeko na bango mosusu ya libota ya Kore, bazalaki na mokumba ya kokengela ekuke ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani ndenge bakoko na bango bazalaki kokengela ekuke ya molako ya Yawe.

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

Pineasi, mwana mobali ya Eleazari, azalaki kala mokonzi na bango, bongo Yawe azalaki elongo na ye.

21 Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper of the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.

Zakari, mwana mobali ya Meshelemia, azalaki mpe mokengeli ekuke ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.

22 All these who were chosen to be gatekeepers in the thresholds were two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their office of trust.

Bango nyonso oyo baponamaki mpo ete bazala bakengeli bikuke bazalaki nkama mibale na zomi na mibale. Bakomaki bakombo na bango na buku ya mabota kolanda bamboka na bango. Ezali Davidi mpe Samuele oyo azalaki momoni makambo nde batiaki bango na misala na bango.

23 So they and their descendants had the oversight of the gates of the house of Jehovah, even the house of the tent, by wards.

Boye, bango elongo na bana na bango bazalaki na mokumba ya kokengela bikuke ya Tempelo ya Yawe; elingi koloba bikuke ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.

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

Bakengeli bikuke bazalaki na bangambo minei: este, weste, nor mpe sude.

25 Their brothers, in their villages, were to come in every seven days from time to time to be with them:

Bandeko na bango ya mibali oyo bazalaki na bamboka na bango, basengelaki koyaka tango na tango kosunga bango mikolo sambo.

26 for the four chief gatekeepers, who were Levites, were in an office of trust, and were over the chambers and over the treasuries in the house of God.

Kasi bakonzi minei ya bakengeli bikuke bazalaki Balevi oyo bazalaki na mokumba ya kokengela bashambre mpe bomengo ya Ndako ya Nzambe.

27 They lodged around the house of God, because that duty was on them; and to them pertained its opening morning by morning.

Bazalaki kolekisa butu na zingazinga ya Ndako ya Nzambe mpo ete basengelaki kokengela yango mpe kofungola yango tongo nyonso.

28 Certain of them were in charge of the vessels of service; for by count were these brought in and by count were these taken out.

Bamoko kati na bango bazalaki na mokumba ya kobatela bisalelo ya losambo mpe kotanga yango tango nyonso bazalaki kokotisa to kobimisa yango.

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

Bamosusu kati na bango bazalaki na mokumba ya kobatela bambeki mpe bisalelo nyonso ya Esika ya bule: farine, vino, mafuta, ansa mpe malasi.

30 Some of the sons of the priests prepared the confection of the spices.

Kasi bana mibali ya Banganga-Nzambe bazalaki kosala malasi.

31 Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the office of trust over the things that were baked in pans.

Moto moko kati na Balevi, Matitia, mwana mobali ya liboso ya Shalumi, moto ya Kore, azalaki na mokumba ya kotumba mapa na kikalungu.

32 Some of their brothers, of the sons of the Kohathites, were over the show bread, to prepare it every Sabbath.

Bamosusu kati na bango, bato ya Keati, bazalaki na mokumba ya kobongisa mapa na milongo mpo na basaba nyonso.

33 These are the singers, heads of ancestral houses of the Levites, who lived in the chambers and were free from other service; for they were employed in their work day and night.

Bayembi oyo bazalaki bakambi ya libota ya Levi, bazalaki tango nyonso kovanda na bashambre ya Ndako ya Nzambe. Bazalaki kosala mosala mosusu te kaka kosala kati na Ndako ya Nzambe butu mpe moyi.

34 These were heads of ancestral houses of the Levites, throughout their generations, chief men: these lived at Jerusalem.

Bango nyonso wana bazalaki bakambi ya libota ya Levi kolanda ndenge bakomamaki na buku ya mabota na bango; mpe bazalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi.

35 In Gibeon there lived the father of Gibeon, Jeiel, whose wife's name was Maacah:

Yeyeli, tata ya Gabaoni, azalaki kovanda na Gabaoni elongo na Maaka, mwasi na ye.

36 and his firstborn son Abdon, and Zur, and Kish, and Baal, and Ner, and Nadab,

Abidoni azalaki mwana na ye ya liboso; mpe sima, abotaki lisusu Tsuri, Kishi, Bala, Neri, Nadabi,

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

Gedori, Ayiyo, Zakari mpe Mikiloti.

38 Mikloth became the father of Shimeah. They also lived with their brothers in Jerusalem, over against their brothers.

Mikiloti abotaki Shimeami. Bango mpe bazalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi elongo na bandeko na bango ya mibali.

39 Ner became the father of Kish; and Kish became the father of Saul; and Saul became the father of Jonathan, and Malkishua, and Abinadab, and Ishbaal.

Neri abotaki Kishi; Kishi abotaki Saulo; Saulo abotaki Jonatan, Maliki-Shuwa, Abinadabi mpe Eshibala.

40 The son of Jonathan was Mippibaal; and Mippibaal became the father of Micah.

Jonatan abotaki mwana mobali, Meriba-Bala. Meriba-Bala abotaki Mishe.

41 The sons of Micah: Pithon, and Melech, and Tahrea, and Ahaz.

Bana mibali ya Mishe: Pitoni, Meleki, Taereya mpe Akazi.

42 And Ahaz became the father of Jadah; and Jadah became the father of Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri became the father of Moza;

Akazi abotaki Yayera; Yayera abotaki Alemeti, Azimaveti mpe Zimiri; Zimiri abotaki Motsa;

43 and Moza became the father of Binea; and Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son.

Motsa abotaki Bineya; Bineya abotaki Refaya; Refaya abotaki Eleasa; Eleasa abotaki Atseli.

44 Azel had six sons, whose names are these: Azrikam, his firstborn, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Azariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan: these were the sons of Azel.

Atseli abotaki bana mibali motoba: Azirikami, Bokuru, Isimaeli, Shearia, Abidiasi mpe Anani. Bango nde bazalaki bana mibali ya Atseli.
