Wasezenzela izindlu emzini kaDavida, walungisela umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu indawo, wawumisela ithente.
2 eye wòde se be, “Ne mietsɔ nubablaɖaka la va da ɖe eƒe nɔƒe yeyea la, Levitɔwo koe atsɔe elabena woawoe Yehowa tia na dɔ sia wɔwɔ; woawoe awɔ subɔsubɔdɔ nɛ tegbetegbee.”
Ngalesosikhathi uDavida wathi: Kakho ongathwala umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwamaLevi, ngoba yiwo iNkosi eyawakhethela ukuthwala umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, lokuyikhonza kuze kube nininini.
3 Le esia megbe la, David yɔ Israel dukɔ blibo la va Yerusalem be woaɖatsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va da ɖe teƒe si wòdzra ɖo ɖi nɛ.
UDavida wasebuthanisa uIsrayeli wonke eJerusalema ukuze benyuse umtshokotsho weNkosi endaweni yawo ayeyilungisele wona.

UDavida wasebiza oZadoki loAbhiyatha abapristi, lamaLevi, oUriyeli, uAsaya, loJoweli, uShemaya, loEliyeli, loAminadaba.
12 eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miawoe nye Levitɔwo ƒe kplɔlawo. Azɔ la, mi kple mia nɔviwo katã mikɔ mia ɖokuiwo ŋu ale be miatsɔ Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka la va teƒe si medzra ɖo ɖi nɛ.
Wasesithi kubo: Lizinhloko zaboyise bamaLevi; zingcweliseni lina labafowenu ukuze lenyuse umtshokotsho weNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli endaweni engiyilungisele wona.
13 Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe mia ŋu esi mienɔ nubablaɖaka la kɔm elabena esi mi Levitɔwo míenɔ anyi gbe ma gbe o la, míebia Yehowa se nu si miawɔ la o.”
Ngoba lina lalingekho kuqala, iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu yafohlela kithi, ngoba singayidinganga ngokwesimiso.
14 Ale Nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti hedzra ɖo ɖe Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka la tsɔtsɔ gbɔe ŋu.
Ngakho abapristi lamaLevi bazingcwelisa ukwenyusa umtshokotsho weNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
15 Levitɔwo tsɔ nubablaɖaka la ɖe abɔta kple etsɔtiwo abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose ene la tututu.
Abantwana bamaLevi basebethwala umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, njengokulaya kukaMozisi ngokwelizwi leNkosi, emahlombe abo ngemijabo phezu kwabo.
16 Fia David na Levitɔwo ƒo ƒu hadzilawo nu eye wodzi ha sesĩe kple dzidzɔ ɖe saŋkuwo, kasaŋkuwo kple gakogoewo ƒe ɖiɖi ŋu.
UDavida wasesithi ezinduneni zamaLevi zimise abafowabo, abahlabeleli, lezinto zokuhlabelela lezigubhu zezintambo lamachacho lezinsimbi ezincencethayo, bazizwakalise, ngokuphakamisa ilizwi ngentokozo.
17 Ame siwo kpɔ hadzidzi kple nu siwo woƒo kpe ɖe eŋu dzi la woe nye Heman, Yoel ƒe vi kple Asaf, Berekia ƒe vi kple Etan, Kusaya ƒe vi, tso Merari ƒe viwo dome.
AmaLevi asemisa uHemani indodana kaJoweli, lakubafowabo uAsafi indodana kaBerekiya, lemadodaneni kaMerari abafowabo uEthani indodana kaKushaya.
18 Woƒe kpeɖeŋutɔwoe nye Zekaria, Yaaziel, Semiramɔt, Yehiel, Uni, Eliab, Benaya, Maaseya, Matitia, Elifelehu, Mikneya, Obed Edom kple Yeiel, ame siwo nye agbonudzɔlawo.
Njalo kanye labo abafowabo besigaba sesibili: OZekhariya, uBeni, loJahaziyeli, loShemiramothi, loJehiyeli, loUni, uEliyabi, loBhenaya, loMahaseya, loMathithiya, loElifelehu, loMikineya, loObedi-Edoma, loJeyiyeli, abalindi bamasango.
19 Wotia Heman, Asaf kple Etan be woaƒo akɔbligakogoewo
Abahlabeleli oHemani, uAsafi, loEthani bazizwakalisa-ke ngensimbi ezincencethayo zethusi.
20 eye wotia ame enyi siawo: Zekaria, Ariel, Semiramɔt, Yehiel, Uni, Eliab, Maaseya kple Benaya be woaƒo kasaŋku gbevitɔwo ɖe alamot ƒe gbeɖiɖi nu.
LoZekhariya loAziyeli loShemiramothi loJehiyeli loUni loEliyabi loMahaseya loBhenaya belezigubhu zezintambo ngeAlamothi.
21 Ame siwo wotia be woaƒo kasaŋku gbegãtɔwo ɖe seminit ƒe gbeɖiɖi nu woe nye: Matitia, Elifelehu, Mikneya, Obed Edom, Yeiel kple Azazia.
LoMathithiya loElifelehu loMikineya loObedi-Edoma loJeyiyeli loAzaziya belamachacho ngeSheminithi ukukhokhela.
22 Hadoɖalae nye Kenania, Levitɔwo Nunɔla; wotiae ɖe eƒe nunya ta.
LoKenaniya induna yamaLevi emthwalweni, wafundisa ngokuhlabelela ngoba wayeyingcitshi.
23 Berekia kple Elkana nye nubablaɖaka la ŋu dzɔlawo.
LoBerekiya loElkana babengabagcini bamasango omtshokotsho.
24 Sebania, Yosafat, Netanel, Amasai, Zekaria, Benaya kple Eliezer, ame siwo katã nye nunɔlawo la, nye kpẽkulawo eye wonɔ ŋgɔ na ameawo katã. Obed Edom kple Yehia dzɔ nubablaɖaka la ƒe agbo ŋu.
LoShebaniya loJoshafati loNethaneli loAmasayi loZekhariya loBhenaya loEliyezeri abapristi bakhalisa izimpondo phambi komtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. LoObedi-Edoma loJehiya babengabagcinimasango bomtshokotsho.
25 Ale David kple Israel ƒe dumegãwo kple ame akpewo ƒe aʋafiawo yi Obed Edom ƒe aƒe me be woatsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la tso afi ma kple aseyetsotso.
Kwasekusithi uDavida labadala bakoIsrayeli lenduna zezinkulungwane bahamba ukwenyusa umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi uvela endlini kaObedi-Edoma ngentokozo.
26 Esi Yehowa kpe ɖe Levitɔ siwo tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ŋu ta la, wotsɔ nyitsu adre kple agbo adre sa vɔe.
Kwasekusithi uNkulunkulu ewasiza amaLevi ayewuthwele umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi, banikela umhlatshelo wamajongosi ayisikhombisa lenqama eziyisikhombisa.
27 Azɔ la, David do awu ʋlaya si wotɔ kple aklala biɖibiɖi; nenema kee nye Levitɔ siwo tsɔ nubablaɖaka la. Nenema kee nye hadzilawo kple Kenania hã, ame si nɔ hadzihawo nu. David ya do aklala si nɔ biɖibiɖi ƒe kɔmewu ɖe etɔ dzi.
Njalo uDavida wayegqoke isembatho selembu elicolekileyo kakhulu, lawo wonke amaLevi ayewuthwele umtshokotsho labahlabeleli loKenaniya induna yomthwalo wabahlabeleli; uDavida-ke wayegqoke i-efodi yelembu elicolekileyo.
28 Ale Israel katã tsɔ dzidzɔɣlidodo, lãdzowo kple kpẽwo kuku, gakogoewo kple saŋkuwo kple kasaŋkuwo ƒoƒo sesĩe tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la yi Yerusalem.
Ngakho uIsrayeli wonke wawenyusa umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi ngokumemeza langokukhala kophondo lwenqama, langezimpondo, langezinsimbi ezincencethayo, besenza umsindo ngezigubhu zezintambo lamachacho.
29 Esi Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va ɖo David ƒe Du la me la, Saul ƒe vinyɔnu, Mixal, nɔ wo kpɔm to fesre nu eye esi wòkpɔ Fia David wònɔ ɣe ɖum, nɔ aglo tum kple dzidzɔ la, edo vloe le eƒe dzime.
Kwasekusithi lapho umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi ufika emzini kaDavida, uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli walunguza ngewindi wabona inkosi uDavida esina edlala, wamdelela enhliziyweni yakhe.
