1 Chronicles 26

1 This is a list of the groups of men who guarded the temple gates: From the descendants of Korah, there was Meshelemiah, the son of Kore, who was one of the sons of Asaph.

Von der Ordnung der Torhüter. Unter den Korhitern war Meselemja, der Sohn Kores, aus den Kindern Assaphs.

2 The oldest son of Meshelemiah was Zechariah. His other sons were Jediael, Zebadiah, Jathniel,

Die Kinder aber Meselemjas waren diese: der erstgeborne Sacharja, der andere Jediael, der dritte Sebadja, der vierte Jathniel,

3 Elam, Jehohanan, and Eliehoenai.

der fünfte Elam, der sechste Johanan, der siebente Elioenai.

4 [Another guard] was Obed-Edom. His oldest son was Shemaiah. His other sons were Jehozabad, Joah, Sacar, Nethanel,

Die Kinder aber Obed-Edoms waren diese: der erstgeborne Semaja, der andere Josabad, der dritte Joah, der vierte Sachar, der fünfte Nethaneel,

5 Ammiel, Issachar, and Peullethai. It was because God had blessed him that he had many sons.

der sechste Ammiel, der siebente Isaschar, der achte Pegulthai; denn Gott hatte ihn gesegnet.

6 Obed-Edom’s son Shemaiah also had sons. They were leaders in their father’s family because they were capable of doing many things well.

Und seinem Sohn Semaja wurden auch Söhne geboren, die im Hause ihrer Väter herrscheten; denn es waren starke Helden.

7 The sons of Shemaiah were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad. Shemaiah’s relatives Elihu and Semakiah were also capable men.

So waren nun die Kinder Semajas: Athni, Rephael, Obed und Elsabad, des Brüder fleißige Leute waren, Elihu und Samachja.

8 All of those descendants of Obed-Edom and their sons and relatives were capable people and strong workers. Altogether there were 62 of them.

Diese waren alle aus den Kindern Obed-Edoms; sie samt ihren Kindern und Brüdern, fleißige Leute, geschickt zu Ämtern, waren zweiundsechzig von Obed-Edom.

9 Another guard was Meshelemiah. He and his sons and relatives were also capable people. There were 18 of them altogether.

Meselemja hatte Kinder und Brüder, fleißige Männer, achtzehn.

10 Another guard was Hosah’s son Shimri, a descendant of Merari. Hosah appointed Shimri to be the leader, even though he was not Hosah’s oldest son.

Hossa aber aus den Kindern Meraris hatte Kinder: den vornehmsten Simri (denn es war der Erstgeborne nicht da, darum setzte ihn sein Vater zum Vornehmsten),

11 Hosah’s other sons were Hilkiah, Tabaliah, and Zechariah. Altogether there were 13 sons and relatives of Hosah.

den andern Hilkia, den dritten Tebalja, den vierten Sacharja. Aller Kinder und Brüder Hossas waren dreizehn.

12 Those men were leaders of the groups of men who guarded the gates of the temple. They worked at the temple like their relatives did.

Dies ist die Ordnung der Torhüter unter den Häuptern der Helden am Amt neben ihren Brüdern, zu dienen im Hause des HERRN.

13 By casting lots, the leader of each family chose one gate for their group to guard. [All of them, including] young men and old men (OR, including leaders of large families and small families), cast lots.

Und das Los ward geworfen, dem Kleinen wie dem Großen, unter ihrer Väter Hause, zu einem jeglichen Tor.

14 Shelemiah’s group was selected to guard the East Gate. The group of Shelemiah’s son Zechariah, who was a wise counselor, was selected to guard the North Gate.

Das Los gegen Morgen fiel auf Meselemja; aber seinem Sohn Sacharja, der ein kluger Rat war, warf man das Los, und fiel ihm gegen Mitternacht;

15 Then Obed-Edom’s group was selected to guard the South Gate, and his sons were selected to guard the [entrances to the temple] storerooms.

Obed-Edom aber gegen Mittag und seinen Söhnen bei dem Hause Esupim.

16 Then Shuppim’s group and Hosah’s group were selected to guard the West Gate and the Shalleketh Gate on the upper road [to the temple]. The work for the guards was divided evenly.

Und Supim und Hossa gegen Abend bei dem Tor, da man gehet auf der Straße der Brandopfer, da die Hut neben andern stehet.

17 Each day there were six descendants of Levi who guarded the East Gate, four who guarded the North Gate, four who guarded the South Gate, and two at a time who guarded the entrances to the storerooms.

Gegen den Morgen waren der Leviten sechs, gegen Mitternacht des Tages vier, gegen Mittag des Tages vier; bei Esupim aber je zween und zween;

18 At the West gate there were two men who guarded the courtyard and four who guarded the road outside the courtyard.

an Parbar aber gegen Abend vier an der Straße und zween an Parbar.

19 Those were the groups of men who were descendants of Korah and Merari who guarded the gates [of the temple].

Dies sind die Ordnungen der Torhüter unter den Kindern der Korhiter und den Kindern Meraris.

20 Other descendants of Levi were in charge of the chests that contained the money that was dedicated to Yahweh, money that the people brought to the temple.

Von den Leviten aber war Ahia über die Schätze des Hauses Gottes und über die Schätze, die geheiliget wurden.

21 [One of those men was] Ladan, a descendant of Gershon. He was the ancestor of several family groups. Jehiel was the leader of one of those family groups.

Von den Kindern Laedans, der Kinder der Gersoniten. Von Laedan waren Häupter der Väter, nämlich die Jehieliten.

22 Others who had that work were Zetham and his [younger] brother Joel, who were the sons of Jehiel.

Die Kinder der Jehieliten waren: Setham und sein Bruder Joel über die Schätze des Hauses des HERRN.

23 Others who did that work were descendants of Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel.

Unter den Amramiten, Jezehariten, Hebroniten und Usieliten

24 [From the descendants of Amram], Shubael, a descendant of Moses’s son Gershom, was the leader who was in charge of the money chests.

war Sebuel, der Sohn Gersoms, des Sohns Moses, Fürst über die Schätze.

25 [Others who did that work were] the descendants of [Gershom’s younger brother] Eliezer. Those men were Eliezer’s son Rehabiah, Rehabiah’s son Jeshaiah, Jeshaiah’s son Joram, Joram’s son Zicri, and Zicri’s son Shelomith.

Aber sein Bruder Elieser hatte einen Sohn Rehabja, des Sohn war Jesaja, des Sohn war Joram, des Sohn war Sichri, des Sohn war Selomith.

26 Shelomith and his relatives were in charge of all the valuable things that had been dedicated [to Yahweh] by King David, by the leaders of the family groups, by the army commanders of 1,000 soldiers and commanders of 100 soldiers, and by other army commanders.

Derselbe Selomith und seine Brüder waren über alle Schätze der Geheiligten, welche der König David heiligte, und die obersten Väter unter den Obersten über tausend und über hundert und die Obersten im Heer.

27 Some of the things that those army officers had taken [from Israel’s enemies] in battles they dedicated for the repair of the temple of Yahweh.

Von Streiten und Rauben hatten sie es geheiliget, zu bessern das Haus des HERRN.

28 And Shelomith and his relatives were also in charge of everything that had been dedicated [to Yahweh] by the prophet Samuel, by King Saul, and by [David’s two army commanders] Ner and Joab.

Auch alles, was Samuel, der Seher, und Saul, der Sohn Kis, und Abner, der Sohn Ners, und Joab, der Sohn Zerujas, geheiliget hatten, alles Geheiligte war unter der Hand Selomiths und seiner Brüder.

29 From the descendants of Izhar, Kenaniah and his sons were given work outside [the temple area]. They were officials and judges in [various places] in Israel.

Unter den Jezehariten war Chenanja mit seinen Söhnen zum Werk draußen über Israel, Amtleute und Richter.

30 From the descendants of Hebron, Hashabiah and his relatives were responsible for the work done for Yahweh and for the king in all the area west of the Jordan [river]. There were 1,700 of them who were able to do their work well.

Unter den Hebroniten aber war Hasabja und seine Brüder, fleißige Leute, tausend und siebenhundert, über das Amt Israels diesseit des Jordans, gegen Abend, zu allerlei Geschäft des HERRN und zu dienen dem Könige.

31 It was written in the records of the descendants of Hebron that Jeriah was their leader. When David had been ruling for almost 40 years, they searched in those records, and they found [names of] capable men descended from Hebron who were at Jazer [city] in the Gilead [region].

Item, unter den Hebroniten war Jeria, der Vornehmste unter den Hebroniten seines Geschlechts unter den Vätern. Es wurden aber unter ihnen gesucht und funden im vierzigsten Jahr des Königreichs Davids fleißige Männer zu Jaeser in Gilead,

32 Jeriah had 2,700 relatives who were able to do their work well, and who were leaders of their families. King David put them in charge of governing the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and [the eastern] half of the tribe of Manasseh, to be sure that all the people did what God and the king told them to do.

und ihre Brüder, fleißige Männer, zweitausend und siebenhundert oberste Väter. Und David setzte sie über die Rubeniter, Gaditer und den halben Stamm Manasse zu allen Händeln Gottes und des Königes.
