1 Chronicles 23
1 Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
Da: ibidi da da: idafa hamonoba, e da egefe Soloumane da Isala: ili fi ilia hina bagade hamoi.
2 He gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
Hina bagade Da: ibidi da Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu amola gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai fi dunu huluane gilisi.
3 The Levites were counted from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.
E da Lifai fi dunumusu amo da ode 30 agoane lalelegele esalu, amola ode 30 baligi, amo idimusa: ilia dio dedei. Ili idi da 38,000 agoane ba: i.
4 David said, “Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of the LORD’s house, six thousand were officers and judges,
Da: ibidi da ilima hawa: hamosu agoane ilelegei. Dunu 24,000 agoane da Debolo Diasu ouligima: ne ilelegei. Dunu 6,000 agoane da dawa: musa: dedene legesu ouligima: ne amola sia: ga gegesu fofada: su ouligima: ne ilelegei. Dunu 4,000 agoane da sosodo aligisu ouligima: ne ilelegei. Dunu 4,000 agoane da gesami hea: sa dusu liligi amo Da: ibidi ea i, amoga Hina Godema nodoma: ne ilelegei.
5 four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made for giving praise.”
6 David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
Da: ibidi da gilisisu udiana hamoma: ne, Lifai fi dunu momogi. Amo gilisisu udiana da Gesione sosogo, Gouha: de sosogo amola Milalai sosogo.
7 Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.
Gesione ea mano aduna da La: ida: ne amola Simiai.
8 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, Zetham, and Joel, three.
La: ida: ne ea mano udiana da Yihaiele, Sida: me amola Youele.
9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.
Simiai ea mano udiana da Siloumidi, Ha: isiele amola Ha: ila: ne. (Ilia da La: ida: ne egaga fi ilima fada: i dunu esafulu)
10 The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
Simiai ea mano biyaduale da Ya: iha: de (magobo mano), Saina, Yeuse amola Bilaia da (ufi mano). Yeuese amola Bilaia elagaga fi da bagahameba: le, ela gilisili sosogo afae fawane idi.
11 Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah didn’t have many sons; therefore they became a fathers’ house in one reckoning.
12 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
Gouha: de ea mano biyaduale da A: mala: me, Aisiha, Hibalone amola Asaiele.
13 The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons forever, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to him, and to bless in his name forever.
Ea magobo dunu mano da A: mala: me. A: mala: me, egefela da Elane amola Mousese. (Elane amola egaga fi, ilia hawa: hamosu da agoane ilegei. Ilia da Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: hadigi liligi amo ouligimu, Godema nodoma: ne gabusiga: manoma gobele salimu, Ea hawa: hamomu, amola Isala: ili dunuma Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le hahawane dogolegele hou imunu, amo huluane hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi.
14 But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.
Be Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu Mousesegefela, da Lifai fi amo ganodini idi.)
15 The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
Mousese egefela da Gesiome amola Elia: isa.
16 The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
Gesiome ea magobo mano da Sibiuele.
17 The son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
Elia: isa da dunu mano afadafa galu. Ea dio da Liha: baia. Be Liha: baia egaga fi dunu da bagohame galu.
18 The son of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
Gouha: de magobo bagia dunu mano da Aisiha. Aisiha egefe da Siloumidi. E da ea sosogo fi ilima fada: i galu.
19 The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
Gouha: de egefe Aisiha amo bagia da Hibalone. Hibalone egefelali da Yelaia, A:malaia, Yaha: isiele amola Yega: mia: ne.
20 The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
Gouha: de egefe ufi da Asaiele. Asaiele egefela da Maiga amola Yisaia: i.
21 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
Milalai egefela da Malai amola Miusiai. Malai egefela da Elia: isa amola Gisia.
22 Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their relatives, the sons of Kish, took them as wives.
Elia: isa da dunu mano hamedene, bogoi. E da uda manomusu galu. Ea uda manoni da ilia elafi (Gisia egefelali) ilima fi.
23 The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
Milalai egefe magobo bagia amo Miusiai egefelali da Malai, Ide amola Yelimode.
24 These were the sons of Levi after their fathers’ houses, even the heads of the fathers’ houses of those who were counted individually, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the LORD’s house, from twenty years old and upward.
Amo dunu huluane da Lifai egaga fifi misi. Ili huluane da ilia dio amola ilia sosogo fi defele, dedene legei ba: i. Lifai egaga fi dunu amo da ode 20 amola baligi, ilia huluane afae afae da Hina Gode Ea Debolo Diasu ganodini hawa: hamonanu.
25 For David said, “The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people; and he dwells in Jerusalem forever.
Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Gode da Ea fi ilima olofosu i dagoi. Amola Hisu da Yelusaleme ganodini eso huluane esalalalumu.
26 Also the Levites will no longer need to carry the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service.”
Amaiba: le, Lifai fi dunu ilia da Hina Gode Ea Hadigi Abula Diasu amola liligi Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: hamoi, amo gaguli masunu hawa: hamosu da hame gala.”
27 For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were counted, from twenty years old and upward.
Da: ibidi ea dagomusa: gini hamoma: ne sia: beba: le, Lifai dunu huluane da ilia lalelegei ode 20 amoga doaga: loba, hawa: hamoma: ne dedene legei.
28 For their duty was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the LORD’s house—in the courts, in the rooms, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of God’s house;
- Ilia da amo hawa: hamoma: ne ilegei: - (a) Elane egaga fi gobele salasu dunu, ilia Debolo Diasu ganodini Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu, amo fidima: ne ilegei. (b) Debolo gagoi amola sesei huluane, amola hadigi Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: liligi huluane amo noga: le ouligima: ne ilegei. (c) Ilia da Godema iasu liligi huluane ouligima: ne ilegei. Amo da agi, falaua, Yisidi hame sali belawagi, amola falaua amola olife susuligi gilisi iasu. (d) Ilia da Debolo gobele salasu liligi huluane dioi defei amola sedade defei, amo ba: ma: ne ilegei.

Amola ilia da ilia fi dunu amo Elane egaga fi gobele salasu dunu, amo ilia Debolo ganodini Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu hou fidima: ne, Lifai fi da ilegei dagoi ba: i.
29 for the show bread also, and for the fine flour for a meal offering, whether of unleavened wafers, or of that which is baked in the pan, or of that which is soaked, and for all measurements of quantity and size;
30 and to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise in the evening;
31 and to offer all burnt offerings to the LORD on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, in number according to the ordinance concerning them, continually before the LORD;
32 and that they should keep the duty of the Tent of Meeting, the duty of the holy place, and the duty of the sons of Aaron their brothers for the service of the LORD’s house.
