< 1 Chronicles 24 >
1 These were the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron: Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Esiawoe nye Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo ƒe mama ɖe hawo me. Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo nye Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar kple Itamar.
2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
Ke Nadab kple Abihu ku do ŋgɔ na wo fofo; viŋutsu aɖeke menɔ wo si o ale Eleazar kple Itamar wɔ dɔ abe nunɔlawo ene.
3 David with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to their ordering in their service.
David kple Zadok, ame si nɔ Eleazar ƒe hlɔ̃metɔwo teƒe kple Ahimelek, ame si nɔ Itamar ƒe hlɔ̃metɔwo teƒe la, ma Aron ƒe dzidzimeviwo ɖe hatsotsowo me be, woawɔ subɔsubɔdɔawo le ɣeyiɣi vovovoawo me.
4 There were more chief men found among the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; so they were divided like this: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen heads according to their ancestral houses, and eight according to their ancestral houses among the sons of Ithamar.
Woma Eleazar ƒe dzidzimeviwo ɖe akpa wuiade me eye woma Itamar tɔwo ɖe akpa enyi me elabena ame siwo ŋu amekpɔkplɔ ƒe ŋutete nɔ la, sɔ gbɔ le Eleazar ƒe dzidzimeviwo dome wu.
5 And thus were they divided impartially by drawing lots; for there were officiers of the sanctuary, and officiers of God, both of the descendants of Eleazar, and of the descendants of Ithamar.
Woda akɔ hafi de dɔawo asi na hatsotso vovovoawo ale be ameŋkumekpɔkpɔ aɖeke menɔ anyi o elabena Mawu ƒe ame xɔŋkɔwo kple amegãwo tso Eleazar kple Itamar ƒe ƒome me.
6 And Shemaiah the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was of the Levites, wrote them in the presence of the king, and the officiers, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the ancestral houses of the priests and of the Levites; one fathers' house being taken for Eleazar and one being taken for Ithamar.
Semaya, tso Levitɔwo dome, ame si fofoe nye Netanel la, nye nuŋlɔla. Eŋlɔ ameawo ƒe ŋkɔwo kple woƒe dɔdeasiwo da ɖi le fia la kple Nunɔla Zadok kple Ahimelek, Abiata ƒe vi kple Levitɔwo ƒe tatɔwo ŋkume. Wode dɔ ɖe sia ɖe asi na Eleazar ƒe viwo ƒe ha eveawo kple Itamar ƒe viwo ƒe ha ɖeka la sɔsɔe.

19 This was their ordering in their service, to come into the house of YHWH according to the ordinance given to them by Aaron their father, as YHWH, the God of Israel, had commanded him.
Hatsotso ɖe sia ɖe wɔ eƒe dɔdeasi le gbedoxɔ la me abe ale si Mawu ɖoe da ɖi to wo fofo Aron dzi ene.
