< 1 Chronicles 24 >

1 Now [these are] the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
וְלִבְנֵי אַהֲרֹן מַחְלְקוֹתָם בְּנֵי אַהֲרֹן נָדָב וַאֲבִיהוּא אֶלְעָזָר וְאִיתָמָֽר׃
2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priests' office.
וַיָּמָת נָדָב וַאֲבִיהוּא לִפְנֵי אֲבִיהֶם וּבָנִים לֹא־הָיוּ לָהֶם וַֽיְכַהֲנוּ אֶלְעָזָר וְאִיתָמָֽר׃
3 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
וַיֶּֽחָלְקֵם דָּוִיד וְצָדוֹק מִן־בְּנֵי אֶלְעָזָר וַאֲחִימֶלֶךְ מִן־בְּנֵי אִיתָמָר לִפְקֻדָּתָם בַּעֲבֹדָתָֽם׃
4 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and [thus] were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar [there were] sixteen chief men of the house of [their] fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
וַיִּמָּצְאוּ בְֽנֵי־אֶלְעָזָר רַבִּים לְרָאשֵׁי הַגְּבָרִים מִן־בְּנֵי אִיתָמָר וַֽיַּחְלְקוּם לִבְנֵי אֶלְעָזָר רָאשִׁים לְבֵית־אָבוֹת שִׁשָּׁה עָשָׂר וְלִבְנֵי אִיתָמָר לְבֵית אֲבוֹתָם שְׁמוֹנָֽה׃
5 Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors [of the house] of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
וַיַּחְלְקוּם בְּגוֹרָלוֹת אֵלֶּה עִם־אֵלֶּה כִּי־הָיוּ שָֽׂרֵי־קֹדֶשׁ וְשָׂרֵי הָאֱלֹהִים מִבְּנֵי אֶלְעָזָר וּבִבְנֵי אִיתָמָֽר׃
6 And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, [one] of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and [before] the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and [one] taken for Ithamar.
וֽ͏ַיִּכְתְּבֵם שְֽׁמַֽעְיָה בֶן־נְתַנְאֵל הַסּוֹפֵר מִן־הַלֵּוִי לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַשָּׂרִים וְצָדוֹק הַכֹּהֵן וַאֲחִימֶלֶךְ בֶּן־אֶבְיָתָר וְרָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת לַכֹּהֲנִים וְלַלְוִיִּם בֵּֽית־אָב אֶחָד אָחֻז לְאֶלְעָזָר וְאָחֻז ׀ אָחֻז לְאִיתָמָֽר׃
7 Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,
וַיֵּצֵא הַגּוֹרָל הָרִאשׁוֹן לִיהוֹיָרִיב לִֽידַעְיָה הַשֵּׁנִֽי׃
8 The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,
לְחָרִם הַשְּׁלִישִׁי לִשְׂעֹרִים הָרְבִעִֽי׃
9 The fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,
לְמַלְכִּיָּה הַחֲמִישִׁי לְמִיָּמִן הַשִּׁשִּֽׁי׃

לְהַקּוֹץ הַשְּׁבִעִי לַאֲבִיָּה הַשְּׁמִינִֽי׃
11 The ninth to Jeshuah, the tenth to Shecaniah,
לְיֵשׁוּעַ הַתְּשִׁעִי לִשְׁכַנְיָהוּ הָעֲשִׂרִֽי׃
12 The eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim,
לְאֶלְיָשִׁיב עַשְׁתֵּי עָשָׂר לְיָקִים שְׁנֵים עָשָֽׂר׃
13 The thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,
לְחֻפָּה שְׁלֹשָׁה עָשָׂר לְיֶֽשֶׁבְאָב אַרְבָּעָה עָשָֽׂר׃
14 The fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer,
לְבִלְגָּה חֲמִשָּׁה עָשָׂר לְאִמֵּר שִׁשָּׁה עָשָֽׂר׃
15 The seventeenth to Hezer, the eighteenth to Aphses,
לְחֵזִיר שִׁבְעָה עָשָׂר לְהַפִּצֵּץ שְׁמוֹנָה עָשָֽׂר׃
16 The nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezekel,
לִֽפְתַחְיָה תִּשְׁעָה עָשָׂר לִֽיחֶזְקֵאל הָעֶשְׂרִֽים׃
17 The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul,
לְיָכִין אֶחָד וְעֶשְׂרִים לְגָמוּל שְׁנַיִם וְעֶשְׂרִֽים׃
18 The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah.
לִדְלָיָהוּ שְׁלֹשָׁה וְעֶשְׂרִים לְמַֽעַזְיָהוּ אַרְבָּעָה וְעֶשְׂרִֽים׃
19 These [were] the orderings of them in their service to come into the house of the LORD, according to their manner, under Aaron their father, as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
אֵלֶּה פְקֻדָּתָם לַעֲבֹדָתָם לָבוֹא לְבֵית־יְהוָה כְּמִשְׁפָּטָם בְּיַד אַהֲרֹן אֲבִיהֶם כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּהוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
20 And the rest of the sons of Levi [were these]: Of the sons of Amram; Shubael: of the sons of Shubael; Jehdeiah.
וְלִבְנֵי לֵוִי הַנּוֹתָרִים לִבְנֵי עַמְרָם שֽׁוּבָאֵל לִבְנֵי שׁוּבָאֵל יֶחְדְּיָֽהוּ׃
21 Concerning Rehabiah: of the sons of Rehabiah, the first [was] Isshiah.

25 The brother of Michah [was] Isshiah: of the sons of Isshiah; Zechariah.
אֲחִי מִיכָה יִשִּׁיָּה לִבְנֵי יִשִּׁיָּה זְכַרְיָֽהוּ׃
26 The sons of Merari [were] Mahli, and Mushi: the sons of Jaaziah; Beno.
בְּנֵי מְרָרִי מַחְלִי וּמוּשִׁי בְּנֵי יַעֲזִיָּהֽוּ בְנֽוֹ׃
27 The sons of Merari by Jaaziah; Beno, and Shoham, and Zaccur, and Ibri.
בְּנֵי מְרָרִי לְיַֽעֲזִיָּהֽוּ בְנוֹ וְשֹׁהַם וְזַכּוּר וְעִבְרִֽי׃
28 Of Mahli [came] Eleazar, who had no sons.
לְמַחְלִי אֶלְעָזָר וְלֹא־הָיָה לוֹ בָּנִֽים׃
29 Concerning Kish: the son of Kish [was] Jerahmeel.
לְקִישׁ בְּנֵי־קִישׁ יְרַחְמְאֵֽל׃
30 The sons also of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth. These [were] the sons of the Levites after the house of their fathers.
וּבְנֵי מוּשִׁי מַחְלִי וְעֵדֶר וִירִימוֹת אֵלֶּה בְּנֵי הַלְוִיִּם לְבֵית אֲבֹתֵיהֶֽם׃
31 These likewise cast lots over against their brethren the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal fathers over against their younger brethren.
וַיַּפִּילוּ גַם־הֵם גּוֹרָלוֹת לְעֻמַּת ׀ אֲחֵיהֶם בְּנֵֽי־אַהֲרֹן לִפְנֵי דָוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ וְצָדוֹק וַאֲחִימֶלֶךְ וְרָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת לַכֹּהֲנִים וְלַלְוִיִּם אָבוֹת הָרֹאשׁ לְעֻמַּת אָחִיו הַקָּטָֽן׃
