1 Chronicles 25
1 David and some of the temple officials (OR, army commanders) chose some of the descendants of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun to be in charge of proclaiming God’s messages, and to play harps and lyres and cymbals. This is a list of the men whom they chose for that work:
Ο Δαβίδ λοιπόν και οι άρχοντες του στρατεύματος διήρεσαν εις την υπηρεσίαν τους υιούς του Ασάφ και του Αιμάν και του Ιεδουθούν, διά να υμνωδώσιν εν κιθάραις, εν ψαλτηρίοις και εν κυμβάλοις· και ο αριθμός των εργαζομένων κατά την υπηρεσίαν αυτών, ήτο,
2 From the sons of Asaph they chose Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Aserelah. Asaph supervised them. And the king appointed Asaph to proclaim God’s messages.
εκ των υιών Ασάφ, Ζακχούρ και Ιωσήφ και Νεθανίας και Ασαρηλά, υιοί Ασάφ, υπό την οδηγίαν του Ασάφ, του υμνωδούντος, κατά την διάταξιν του βασιλέως·
3 From the sons of Jeduthun they chose six men: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah. Jeduthun supervised them and also proclaimed God’s messages, playing his harp while he thanked and praised Yahweh.
του Ιεδουθούν· οι υιοί του Ιεδουθούν, Γεδαλίας και Σερί και Ιεσαΐας, Σιμεΐ, Ασαβίας και Ματταθίας, εξ, υπό την οδηγίαν του πατρός αυτών Ιεδουθούν, όστις υμνώδει εν κιθάρα, υμνών και δοξολογών τον Κύριον·
4 From the sons of Heman, who was one of the king’s prophets, they chose Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shubael, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamti-Ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth.
του Αιμάν· οι υιοί του Αιμάν, Βουκκίας, Ματθανίας, Οζιήλ, Σεβουήλ και Ιεριμώθ, Ανανίας, Ανανί, Ελιαθά, Γιδδαλθί και Ρομαμθί-έζερ, Ιωσβεκασά, Μαλλωθί, Ωθίρ και Μααζιώθ·
5 God promised to cause Heman to be strong, so altogether, God have him 14 sons and three daughters.
πάντες ούτοι ήσαν οι υιοί του Αιμάν του βλέποντος του βασιλέως εις τους λόγους του Θεού, διωρισμένοι εις το να υψόνωσι το κέρας. Έδωκε δε ο Θεός εις τον Αιμάν δεκατέσσαρας υιούς και τρεις θυγατέρας.
6 All those men were supervised by their fathers while they played music in the temple of Yahweh. They played cymbals, lyres, and harps. And their fathers—Asaph, Jeduthun and Heman—were supervised by the king.
Πάντες ούτοι υπό την οδηγίαν του πατρός αυτών ήσαν υμνωδούντες εν τω οίκω του Κυρίου, εν κυμβάλοις, ψαλτηρίοις και κιθάραις, διά την υπηρεσίαν του οίκου του Θεού, κατά την διάταξιν του βασιλέως προς τον Ασάφ και Ιεδουθούν και Αιμάν.
7 Those men and their relatives were all trained and skilled for playing musical instruments in the temple. That was their work for Yahweh. Including their relatives, there were 288 of them.
Και έγεινεν ο αριθμός αυτών, μετά των αδελφών αυτών, των δεδιδαγμένων τα άσματα του Κυρίου, διακόσιοι ογδοήκοντα οκτώ, πάντες συνετοί.
8 All of them, including ones who were young and those who were old, cast lots to determine what work they would do.
