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:
David y los jefes del ejército separaron para el culto a los que de entre los hijos de Asaf, de Hemán y de Jedutún tenían que ejercer la música sacra con cítaras, salterios y címbalos. He aquí el número de los hombres que hacían esto en su ministerio:
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.
De los hijos de Asaf: Zacur, José, Netanías y Asarela, hijos de Asaf, bajo la dirección de Asaf, que ejercía su ministerio según las órdenes del rey.
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.
De Jedutún: los hijos de Jedutún: Gedalías, Serí, Isaías, Hasabías, Matatías (y Simeí), seis, bajo la dirección de su padre Jedutún, que cantaba con la cítara para celebrar y alabar a Yahvé.
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.
De Hemán: los hijos de Hemán: Bukías, Matanías, Uciel, Sebuel, Jerimot, Hananías, Hananí, Eliata, Gidalti, Romamtiéser, Josbecasa, Malloti, Hotir y Mahasiot.
5 God promised to cause Heman to be strong, so altogether, God have him 14 sons and three daughters.
Todos estos eran hijos de Hemán, vidente del rey en las cosas de Dios para ensalzar su poder. Dios había dado a Hemán catorce hijos y tres hijas.
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.
Todos estos estaban bajo la dirección de su padre en el canto de la Casa de Yahvé, con címbalos, salterios y cítaras para cumplir su ministerio en la Casa de Dios. Asaf, Jedutún y Hemán estaban a las órdenes del rey.
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.
El número de ellos, con sus hermanos, los que eran instruidos en el canto de Yahvé, todos ellos maestros, era de doscientos ochenta y ocho.
8 All of them, including ones who were young and those who were old, cast lots to determine what work they would do.
