1 Chronicles 9

1 And, all Israel, registered themselves, and lo! they are written, in the Book of the Kings of Israel, and, Judah, was carried away captive to Babylon, for their faithlessness.

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 were 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 And, in Jerusalem, there dwelt, of the sons of Judah, and of the sons of Benjamin, —and of the sons of Ephraim, and Manasseh:

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

4 Uthai son of Ammihud, son of Omri, son of Imri, son of Bani, of the sons of Perez, 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 And, of the Shilonites, Asaiah the firstborn, and his sons.

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

6 And, of the sons of Zerah, Jeuel, —and their brethren, six hundred and ninety.

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

7 And, of the sons of Benjamin, Sallu, son of Meshullam, son of Hodaviah, son of Hassenuah;

8 and Ibneiah, son of Jeroham, and Elah, son of Uzzi, son of Michri, —and Meshullam, son of Shephatiah, son of Reuel, 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 brethren, by their generations, nine hundred and fifty-six, —all these men, were ancestral chiefs, to their ancestral house.

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 And, of the priests, Jedaiah, and Jehoiarib, and Jachin, —

Kati na Banganga-Nzambe: Yedaeya, Yeoyaribi, Yakini;

11 and Azariah son of Hilkiah, son of Meshullam, son of Zadok, son of Meraioth, son of Ahitub, chief 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, son of Jeroham, son of Pashhur, son of Malchijah, —and Maasai son of Adiel, son of Jahzerah, son of Meshullam, son of Meshillemith, 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 brethren, chief men of their ancestral house, a thousand and seven hundred and sixty, —able men, for the business 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 And, of the Levites, Shemaiah, son of Hasshub, son of Azrikam, 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, son of Mica, son of Zichri, son of Asaph;

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

16 and Obadiah, son of Shemaiah, son of Galal, son of Jeduthun, —and Berechiah son of Asa, son of Elkanah, who dwelt 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 And, the keepers of the gates, were Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, —and their brethren—Shallum the chief;

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

18 and, hitherto, they were in the gate of the king, eastward, —the same, were the keepers of the gate, for the camps of the sons 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 And, Shallum, son of Kore, son of Ebiasaph, son of Korah and his brethren of his ancestral house—the Korahites, were over the business of the service, watchers at the vestibule of the tent, —and, their fathers, had been over the camp of Yahweh, watchers at the entrance.

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 And, Phinehas son of Eleazar, was, chief ruler, over them aforetime, Yahweh, being with him.

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

21 Zechariah son of Meshelemiah, was door-keeper at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

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

22 All those who were chosen for door-keepers in the vestibule, were two hundred and twelve, —the same, in their villages, had registered themselves, the same, did David and Samuel the seer establish in their 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 sons, were over the gates of the house of Yahweh, of the house of the tent, by watches.

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 Towards the four winds, were the keepers of the gates, —eastward, westward, northward, and southward.

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

25 And, their brethren in their villages, had to come in, every seven days, from time to time, along with these.

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

26 For, in trust, were four mighty men of the keepers of the gates, the same, were Levites, —and they were over the chambers, and over the treasuries of 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 And, round about the house of God, used they to lodge, —for, upon them, was the charge, and they were over the setting open, morning by morning.

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

28 And, some from among them, were over the utensils of the service, —for, by number, used they to bring them in, and, by number, used they to take them forth.

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

29 And, some from among them, were appointed over the utensils, yea over all the vessels of the holy place, —and over the fine meal, 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 And, some from among the sons of the priests, were compounders of perfumes, with the spices.

Kasi bana mibali ya Banganga-Nzambe bazalaki kosala malasi.

31 And, Mattithiah, from among the Levites, —the same, was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite—was in trust over the making of the flat cakes.

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

32 And, some from among the Kohathites, of their brethren, were over the Bread that was set in Array, —to place it sabbath by sabbath.

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

33 These, also were the singers, ancestral chiefs of the Levites, in the chambers, free, —for, by day and by night, was there [a charge] upon them, in the business.

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 the ancestral chiefs, of the Levites, by their generations, chief men, —these, dwelt in 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 And, in Gibeon, dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jeiel, —the name of whose wife, 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 Mikloh.

Gedori, Ayiyo, Zakari mpe Mikiloti.

38 And, Mikloth, begat Shimeam—and, they also, over against their brethren, did dwell in Jerusalem, along with their brethren.

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

39 And, Ner, begat Kith, and, Kish, begat Saul, —and, Saul, begat Jonathan, and Malchishua, and Abinadab, and Eshbaal;

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

40 and, the son of Jonathan, was Merib-baal, —and, Merib-baal, begat Micah;

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

41 and, the sons of Micah, were Pithon, and Melech, and Tahrea [and Ahaz];

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

42 and, Ahaz, begat Jarah, and, Jarah begat Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri, —and Zimri, begat Moza;

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

43 and, Moza, begat Binea, —and Raphaiah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son;

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

44 and, Azel, had six sons, and these are their names—Azrikam, [his firstborn], and Ishmael, and Sheariah and Obadiah, and Hanan, [and Asah]. 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.
