31 Forsothe Y made the princes of Juda to stie on the wal, and Y ordeynede twei greete queris of men heriynge; and thei yeden to the riyt side on the wal, to the yate of the dunghil.
Ngasengisenza iziphathamandla zakoJuda zenyukele emdulini, ngamisa amaxuku amakhulu amabili okubonga lezindwendwe, elinye kwesokunene phezu komduli kusiya esangweni lomquba.

Langasesangweni lomthombo, njalo maqondana labo, benyuka ngezinyathelo zomuzi kaDavida, emqansweni womduli, ngaphezu kwendlu kaDavida, kusiya esangweni lamanzi ngempumalanga.

43 And thei offriden in that dai grete sacrifices, and weren glad; `for God `hadde maad hem glad with grete gladnesse. But also her wyues and lawful childre weren ioiful, and the gladnesse of Jerusalem was herd fer.
Basebehlaba mhlalokho imihlatshelo emikhulu, bathokoza, ngoba uNkulunkulu wabenza bathokoza ngentokozo enkulu; labesifazana labantwana labo bathokoza; kwaze kwathi intokozo yeJerusalema yezwakala khatshana.
44 Also thei noumbriden in that dai men ouer the keping places of tresour, to moiste sacrifices, and to the firste fruytis, and to tithis, that the princes of the citee schulden brynge in bi hem, `in the fairenesse of doyng of thankyngis, prestis and dekenes; for Juda was glad in prestis and dekenes present.
Ngalolosuku kwamiswa-ke amadoda phezu kwamakamelo okuligugu, aweminikelo, awezithelo zokuqala, lawokwetshumi, ukuqoqela kuwo okuvela emasimini emizi izabelo zomlayo zabapristi lezamaLevi. Ngoba uJuda wathokoza ngabapristi lamaLevi ayemile.
45 And thei kepten the kepyng of her God, the kepyng of clensyng; and syngeris, and porteris, bi the comaundement of Dauid and of Salomon, his sone;
Abahlabeleli labalindimasango basebegcina imfanelo kaNkulunkulu wabo, lemfanelo yokuhlambulula, njengomlayo kaDavida loSolomoni indodana yakhe.
46 for in the daies of Dauid and of Asaph fro the bigynnyng princes of syngeris weren ordeyned, heriyng in song, and knoulechynge to God.
Ngoba ensukwini zamandulo zikaDavida loAsafi kwakulezinhloko zabahlabeleli lezingoma zokudumisa lokubonga kuNkulunkulu.
47 And al Israel, in the daies of Zorobabel, and in the daies of Neemye, yauen partis to syngeris and to porteris bi alle `the daies; and thei halewiden dekenes, and the dekenes halewiden the sones of Aaron.
LoIsrayeli wonke ensukwini zikaZerubhabheli lensukwini zikaNehemiya banika izabelo zabahlabeleli labalindimasango, udaba losuku ngosuku lwalo; basebekungcwelisela amaLevi, lamaLevi akungcwelisela abantwana bakoAroni.
