1 So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies; and behold, they [were] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah, [who] were carried away to Babylon for their transgression.
Wode Israelvi ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ƒome Israel fiawo ƒe agbalẽ me pɛpɛpɛ. Woɖe aboyo Yudatɔwo yi Babilonia le woƒe nuteƒemawɔmawɔ ta.
2 Now the first inhabitants that [dwelt] in their possessions in their cities [were], the Israelites, the priests, Levites, and the Nethinims.

17 And the porters [were] Shallum, and Akkub, and Talmon, and Ahiman, and their brethren: Shallum [was] the chief;
Agbonudzɔlawoe nye: Salum, Akub, Talmon, Ahiman kple wo nɔviwo. Salum nye woƒe tatɔ.
18 Who hitherto [waited] in the king's gate eastward: they [were] porters in the companies of the children of Levi.
Wodae ɖe Fia ƒe Agbo nu le ɣedzeƒe va se ɖe egbe. Ame siawoe nye agbonudzɔlawo tso Levitɔwo dome.
19 And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren of the house of his father, the Korahites, [were] over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the tabernacle: and their fathers, [being] over the host of the LORD, [were] keepers of the entry.

21 [And] Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah [was] porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Zekaria, Meselemia ƒe vi dzɔ Mawu ƒe Agbadɔ la ƒe agbonu ŋu.
22 All these [who were] chosen to be porters in the gates [were] two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer ordained in their set office.
Ame siwo katã wotia be woanye agbonudzɔlawo la ƒe xexlẽme le alafa eve wuieve. Wotia wo tso woƒe kɔƒewo me ɖe woƒe dzidzimegbalẽ nu. David kple nukpɔla Samuel woe de agbonudzɔdɔ asi na agbonudzɔlawo.
23 So they and their children [had] the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, [namely], the house of the tabernacle, by wards.
Woawo kple woƒe dzidzimeviwoe dzɔa Yehowa ƒe aƒe la ƒe agbonu, aƒe si woyɔna be Agbadɔ.
24 In four quarters were the porters, towards the east, west, north and south.
Woda agbonudzɔlawo ɖe akpa eneawo dzi: ɣedzeƒe, ɣetoɖoƒe, anyiehe kple dziehe.
25 And their brethren, [who were] in their villages, [were] to come after seven days from time to time with them.
Enɔ na wo nɔviŋutsu siwo nɔ woƒe kɔƒewo me be woava tso ɣeyiɣi yi ɣeyiɣi akpe ɖe wo ŋuti le woƒe dɔwɔnawo me ŋkeke adre.
26 For these Levites, the four chief porters, were in [their] set office, and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.
Wotsɔ Mawu ƒe aƒe la ƒe xɔwo kple nudzraɖoƒewo ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ de asi na agbonudzɔlagã eneawo, ame siwo nye Levitɔwo.
27 And they lodged about the house of God, because the charge [was] upon them, and the opening of it every morning [pertained] to them.
Zã sia zã la, woƒoa xlã Mawu ƒe aƒe la eye wodzɔa eŋu elabena woƒe dɔe nye be woadzɔ eŋu eye le esia ta safui la nɔa wo si be woaʋu agbo la ŋdi sia ŋdi.
28 And [certain] of them had the charge of the ministering vessels, that they should bring them in and out by number.

29 [Some] of them also [were] appointed to oversee the vessels, and all the instruments of the sanctuary, and the fine flour, and the wine, and the oil, and the frankincense, and the spices.
Ame bubuwo ƒe dɔe nye woakpɔ xɔmenuwo kple nu siwo le Kɔkɔeƒe la me kple wɔ memi kple wain, ami kple dzudzɔdonu kple atike ʋeʋĩwo dzi.
30 And [some] of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices.

31 And Mattithiah, [one] of the Levites, who [was] the first-born of Shallum the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were made in the pans.

32 And [others] of their brethren, of the sons of the Kohathites, [were] over the show-bread, to prepare [it] every sabbath.

33 And these [are] the singers, chief of the fathers of the Levites, [who remaining] in the chambers [were] free: for they were employed in [that] work day and night.
Ame siwo nye hadzilawo kple Levitɔwo ƒe ƒometatɔwo la, nɔa gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔwo me. Womegaɖoa dɔ bubu aɖeke na wo o elabena wowɔa dɔ le ŋkeke me kple zã me siaa.
