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.
Ty amo firimboñam-pitan-dalambeio: Amo nte-Koraheo, i Meselemià, ana’ i Kore, tarira’ i Asafeo.
2 The oldest son of Meshelemiah was Zechariah. His other sons were Jediael, Zebadiah, Jathniel,
O ana’ i Meselemiào: i Zekarià ty tañoloñoloña’e, Iediaele ty faharoe, i Zebadià ty fahatelo, Iatniele ty fah’efatse,
3 Elam, Jehohanan, and Eliehoenai.
i Elame ty fahalime, Iehokanane ty fah’ eneñe, i Elioenay ty faha-fito.
4 [Another guard] was Obed-Edom. His oldest son was Shemaiah. His other sons were Jehozabad, Joah, Sacar, Nethanel,
O ana’ i Abededomeo: i Semaià ty tañoloñoloña’e, Iehozabade ty faharoe, Ioake ty fahatelo, i Sakare ty fahefatse, i Netanele ty fahalime,
5 Ammiel, Issachar, and Peullethai. It was because God had blessed him that he had many sons.
i Amiele ty fah’ eneñe, Isakare ty faha-fito, i Peolètae ty fahavalo amy te nitahien’ Añahare.
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.
Nisamak’ ana-dahy ka t’i Semaià ana’e, sindre mpiaolon’ anjomban-droae’e, lahilahy maozatse mahasibeke.
7 The sons of Shemaiah were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad. Shemaiah’s relatives Elihu and Semakiah were also capable men.
O ana-dahi’ i Semaiào: i Otný naho i Refaele; vaho i Ovede naho i Elzabade rahalahi’e, songa fanalolahy; i Elihò ka naho i Semakià.
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.
Ie ro tamo ana’ i Ovededomeo: ie naho o ana-dahi’eo naho o rahalahi’eo songa ondaty mahasibeke naho maozatse amo fitoloñañeo, enem-polo-ro’ amby, amy Ovededome.
9 Another guard was Meshelemiah. He and his sons and relatives were also capable people. There were 18 of them altogether.
Nanañ’ anake naho rahalahy t’i Meselemià, fanalolahy, folo-valo’ amby.
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.
I Kosà ka, tarira’ i Merario: i Simrý talè, (toe tsy tañoloñoloña’e fe nanoen-drae’e talè),
11 Hosah’s other sons were Hilkiah, Tabaliah, and Zechariah. Altogether there were 13 sons and relatives of Hosah.
i Hilkià ty faharoe, i Tebalia ty fahatelo, i Zekarià ty fahefatse; ze hene ana-dahy naho rahalahi’ i Kosà le folo-telo’ amby.
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.
I firimboñam-pañambeñe rezay, ambane’ o mpiaoloo, le natolotse fitoloñañe manahake o rahalahi’ iareoo, hitoroñe añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
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.
Ie nanao an-kitsapake, ty kede naho ty bey, ty amo anjomban-droae’eo, ho amy ze lalambey iaby.
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.
Nipoke ho a i Selemià ty vato’ i atiñanañey le ho a i ana’e Zekariay, mpanolo-kevetse mahihitse, nanoeñe an-kitsapake le nipoke te avaratse i azey.
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.
Ho a i Ovededome ty atimo naho a o ana-dahi’eo ty anjombam-pañajàñe.
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.
Ho a i Sopime naho i Kosà ty ahandrefa amy lalambei’ i Saleketey, amy lalañe mañamboney, mpañambeñe miatreke mpañambeñe.
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.
Atiñana, le nte-Levý eneñe; avaratse, le efatse boak’ andro; atimo, le efatse boak’ andro; vaho amy anjombam-pañajàñey, roe naho roe.
18 At the West gate there were two men who guarded the courtyard and four who guarded the road outside the courtyard.
Amy trañom-pànakey, mañandrefa, efatse amy lalañey naho roe amy trañoy.
19 Those were the groups of men who were descendants of Korah and Merari who guarded the gates [of the temple].
Ie ro firimboñam-pigaritse amo ana’ i Koreo naho amo ana’ i Merario.
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.
Le ty amo nte-Levio: i Akiià ty mpiaolo o fañajam-baran’ anjomban’ Añahareo naho o fañajàñe o raha masiñeo.
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.
O ana’ i Ladaneo, o ana’ i Gersone tamo Ladaneo, o talèn’ anjomban-droae a i Ladane nte-Gersoneo: o nte-Iekielio.
22 Others who had that work were Zetham and his [younger] brother Joel, who were the sons of Jehiel.
O ana’ Iekielio: i Zetame naho Ioele rahalahi’e, mpitàm-pañajàm-bara añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
23 Others who did that work were descendants of Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel.
Amo nte Amrameo, amo nte Ietsareo, amo nte-Kebroneo, amo nte Ozieleo:
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.
i Seboele, ana’ i Gersone, ana’ i Mosè, ty mpiaolo’ o fanontonam-barao;
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.
o longo’eo amy Eliezere, i Rahabia, ana’e naho Iesaià, ana’e naho Iorame ana’e naho i Zikrý ana’e vaho i Selomote ana’e.
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.
I Selomote rekets’ o rahalahi’eo ty mpamandroñe ze hene vara masiñe nengae’ i Davide mpanjaka naho o talèn-droaeo naho o mpifelek’ arivo naho zatoo naho o mpifehe i valobohòkeio.
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.
Amo raha kinopak’ an-kotakotakeo ty nengae’ iareo hañamboarañe i anjomba’ Iehovày;
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.
naho ze nengae’ i Samoele, mpitoky naho i Saole, ana’ i Kise naho i Abnere, ana’ i Nere naho Ioabe, ana’ i Tseroià vaho ia’ia ka ze nañenga, le tambanem-pità’ i Selomote naho o rahalahi’eo.
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.
Amo nte Itsareo, i Kenanià naho o ana’eo ty nitoloñe alafe’e ao ho a Israele, ho mpiaolo naho mpizaka.
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.
Le amo nte-Kebroneo, i Kasabià naho o rahalahi’eo, ondaty mahimbañe, arivo-tsi-fitonjato nimpisary Israele alafe’ Iordaney mañandrefa, amy ze hene fitoloña’ Iehovà naho ami’ty fitoroñañe i mpanjakay.
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].
Amo nte-Kebroneo t’Ierià, talè’ o nte-Kebroneo, ty amo tariran-droae’eo. Ie tan-taom-paha-efapolo’ i Davide, le nitsoeheñe vaho nitendreke fanalolahy añivo’e ao e Iazere’ i Gilade añe.
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.
O rahalahi’eo, ondaty mahimbañe, ro’arivo-tsi-fitonjato, talèn-droae ty nanoe’ i Davide, mpanjaka, mpisary o nte-Reobeneo naho o nte-Gadeo naho ty vakim-pifokoa’ i Menasè, ty amy ze he’e nioza aman’ Añahare naho amo raharaham-panjakao.
