1 Chronicles 27

1 Now the children of Israel after their number, the heads of ancestral houses and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and their officers who served the king, in any matter of the divisions which came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year—of every division were twenty-four thousand.

سپاه اسرائیل از افراد و رؤسای خاندانها و طایفه‌ها و بزرگان تشکیل یافته بود و شامل دوازده سپاه می‌شد. هر سپاه که متشکل از ۲۴٬۰۰۰ نفر بود، به نوبت، سالی یک ماه به خدمت فرا خوانده می‌شد. فرماندهان این سپاهیان، به ترتیب ماه خدمت، عبارت بودند از:

2 Over the first division for the first month was Jeshbaal, son of Zabdiel: and in his division were twenty-four thousand.

16 Furthermore over the tribes of Israel: of the Reubenites was Eliezer the son of Zikri the ruler: of the Simeonites, Shephatiah the son of Maacah:

رؤسای قبیله‌های اسرائیل به شرح زیر بودند: العازار پسر زکری، رئیس قبیلهٔ رئوبین؛ شفطیا پسر معکه، رئیس قبیلهٔ شمعون؛ حشبیا پسر قموئیل، رئیس قبیلهٔ لاوی؛ صادوق، رئیس خاندان هارون؛ الیهو برادر داوود پادشاه، رئیس قبیلهٔ یهودا؛ عمری پسر میکائیل، رئیس قبیلهٔ یساکار؛ یشمعیا پسر عوبدیا، رئیس قبیلهٔ زبولون؛ یریموت پسر عزری‌ئیل، رئیس قبیلهٔ نفتالی؛ هوشع پسر عزریا، رئیس قبیلهٔ افرایم؛ یوئیل پسر فدایا، رئیس نصف قبیلهٔ منسی؛ یدو پسر زکریا، رئیس نصف دیگر قبیلهٔ منسی در جلعاد؛ یعسی‌ئیل پسر ابنیر، رئیس قبیله بنیامین؛ عزرئیل پسر یروحام، رئیس قبیلهٔ دان.

17 of Levi, Hashabiah the son of Kemuel: of Aaron, Zadok:

18 of Judah, Elihu, one of the brothers of David: of Issachar, Omri the son of Michael:

21 of the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zechariah: of Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner:

22 of Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham. These were the captains of the tribes of Israel.

23 But David did not take the number of them from twenty years old and under, because YHWH had said he would increase Israel like the stars of the sky.

داوود هنگام سرشماری، جوانان بیست سال یا کمتر را به حساب نیاورد، زیرا خداوند وعده داده بود که جمعیت اسرائیل را مثل ستارگان آسمان بی‌شمار گرداند.

24 Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number, but did not finish; and there came wrath for this on Israel; neither was the number entered in the scroll of the chronicles of King David.

یوآب سرشماری را شروع کرد ولی آن را تمام نکرد، چون خشم خداوند بر اسرائیل افروخته شد. لذا آمار نهایی در سالنامهٔ داوود پادشاه ثبت نشد.

25 Over the king's treasures was Azmaveth the son of Adiel: and over the treasures in the fields, in the cities, and in the villages, and in the towers, was Jonathan the son of Uzziah:

عزموت پسر عدی‌ئیل سرپرست انبارهای سلطنتی و یوناتان پسر عزیا سرپرست انبارهای شهرها و روستاها و قلعه‌ها بود.

26 Over those who did the work of the field for tillage of the ground was Ezri the son of Chelub:

عزری پسر کلوب، سرپرست کارگرانی بود که در املاک پادشاه کار می‌کردند.

27 and over the vineyards was Shimei the Ramathite: and over the increase of the vineyards for the winecellars was Zabdi the Shiphmite:

شمعی راماتی بر باغهای انگور پادشاه نظارت می‌کرد. زبدی شفماتی مسئول تهیهٔ شراب و انبار کردن آن بود.

28 and over the olive trees and the sycamore trees that were in the lowland was Baal Hanan the Gederite: and over the cellars of oil was Joash:

بعل حانان جدیری مسئول باغهای زیتون و درختان افراغ در دشتهای هم مرز کشور فلسطین بود. یوآش متصدی ذخیرهٔ روغن زیتون بود.

29 and over the herds that fed in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite: and over the herds that were in the valleys was Shaphat the son of Adlai:

شطرای شارونی در دشت شارون از رمه‌ها نگهداری می‌کرد، و شافاط پسر عدلائی مسئول نگهداری رمه‌هایی بود که در دره‌ها می‌چریدند.

30 and over the camels was Obil the Ishmaelite: and over the donkeys was Jehdeiah the Meronothite: and over the flocks was Jaziz the Hagrite.

عوبیل اسماعیلی بر کار نگهداری شترها و یحدیای میرونوتی بر کار نگهداری الاغها نظارت می‌کردند.

31 All these were the rulers of the substance which was king David's.

یازیز مسئول نگهداری گله‌ها بود. تمام این مردان ناظران دارایی داوود پادشاه بودند.

32 Also Jonathan, David's uncle, was a counselor, a man of understanding, and a scribe: and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni was with the king's sons:

یوناتان عموی داوود مشاوری دانا و عالم بود و یحی‌ئیل، پسر حکمونی از پسران پادشاه مواظبت می‌کرد.

33 Ahithophel was the king's counselor: and Hushai the Archite was the king's friend:

اخیتوفل مشاور پادشاه و حوشای ارکی دوست پادشاه بود.

34 and after Ahithophel was Jehoiada the son of Benaiah, and Abiathar: and the captain of the king's army was Joab.

پس از اخیتوفل، یهویاداع (پسر بنایا) و اَبیّاتار به جای او مشاور شدند. فرماندهٔ سپاه اسرائیل یوآب بود.
