1 Chronicles 24
1 The work groups based on Aaron's descendants were these: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Ebibinja eby’abazzukulu ba Alooni nga bwe bagabanyizibwamu byali bwe biti: Batabani ba Alooni baali Nadabu, ne Abiku, ne Eriyazaali ne Isamaali.
2 Nadab and Abihu died before their father died. They had no children, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
Naye Nadabu ne Abiku baasooka kitaabwe okufa, ate nga baafa tebazzadde baana. Eriyazaali ne Isamaali kyebaava baawulibwa era ne batandika okukola omulimu ogw’obwakabona.
3 David, together with Zadok, a descendant of Eleazar, and Ahimelech, a descendant of Ithamar, divided them into groups for their work as priests.
Dawudi ng’ayambibwako Zadooki muzzukulu wa Eriyazaali, ne Akimereki muzzukulu wa Isamaali, yabaawulamu ebibinja nga bwe baalondebwa mu kuweereza kwabwe.
4 There were more leading men among Eleazar's descendants than among Ithamar's descendants, so they divided Eleazar's descendants into sixteen groups. They did this by heads of clans and by Ithamar's descendants. These divisions were eight in number, corresponding to their clans.
Kyazuulibwa nga abakulembeze mu bazzukulu ba Eriyazaali baali bangi okusinga abazzukulu ba Isamaali, bwe bati bwe bagabanyizibwamu: mu bazzukulu ba kkumi na mukaaga, okuba abakulu b’ennyumba ne ku bazzukulu ba Isamaali munaana okuba abakulu b’ennyumba.
5 They divided them impartially by lot, for there were holy officials and officials of God, from both Eleazar's descendants and Ithamar's descendants.
Baabagabanyamu nga bakubye obululu, kubanga waaliwo abakungu abamu nga ba mu kifo ekitukuvu, n’abalala nga bakungu ba Katonda naye nga bonna bazzukulu ba Eriyazaali ne Isamaali.
6 Shemaiah son of Nethanel the scribe, a Levite, wrote down their names in the presence of the king, the officials, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the leaders of the priestly and Levite families. One clan was drawn by lot from Eleazar's descendants, and then the next would be drawn from Ithamar's descendants.
Semaaya Omuwandiisi, mutabani wa Nesaneri, Omuleevi, n’awandiikira amannya gaabwe mu maaso ga kabaka n’abakungu nga Zadooki kabona, ne Akimereki mutabani wa Abiyasaali, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za bakabona, n’Abaleevi, ennyumba emu ng’eronderwa Eriyazaali, n’endala ng’eronderwa Isamaali.
7 The first lot went to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,

14 the fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer,
ak’ekkumi noobutaano ku Biruga, n’ak’ekkumi n’omukaaga ku Immeri,

n’ak’ekkumi n’omusanvu ku Keziri, n’ak’ekkumi n’omunaana ku Kapizzezi,
16 the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezkel,
n’ak’ekkumi n’omwenda ku Pesakiya, n’ak’amakumi abiri ku Yekezukeri,
17 the twenty-first to Jakin, the twenty-second to Gamul,
ak’amakumi abiri mu kamu ku Yakini, n’ak’amakumi abiri mu bubiri ku Gamuli,
18 the twenty-third to Delaiah, and the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.
n’ak’amakumi abiri mu busatu ku Deraya, n’ak’amakumi abiri mu buna ku Maaziya.
19 This was the order of their service, when they came into Yahweh's house, following the procedure given to them by Aaron their ancestor, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had instructed him.
Kuno kwe kwali okulondebwa kw’obuweereza bwabwe, bwe baayingiranga mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, nga bagoberera ebiragiro ebyabaweebwa jjajjaabwe Alooni, nga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri bwe yamulagira.

Ne ku batabani ba Musi, Makuli, ne Ederi ne Yerimosi. Abo be baali Abaleevi, ng’ennyumba zaabwe bwe zaali.
31 These men who were the head of each father's house and each of their younger brothers, cast lots in the presence of King David, and Zadok and Ahimelech, along with the leaders of the families of the priests and Levites. They cast lots just as Aaron's descendants had done.
Era ne bano bwe batyo ne bakuba obululu, nga baganda baabwe bazzukulu ba Alooni bwe baakola, mu maaso ga Kabaka Dawudi, ne Zadooki, ne Akimereki, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za bakabona n’Abaleevi. Ennyumba ya muganda waabwe omukulu yayisibwanga mu ngeri y’emu ng’ey’omuto.
