La ngamadodana kaLevi ngendlu yaboyise, inhloko zaboyise, ngokubalwa kwawo, ngenani lamabizo, ngamakhanda awo, esenza umsebenzi wenkonzo yendlu yeNkosi, kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili kusiya phezulu.
25 elabena David gblɔ be, “Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la na ŋutifafa mí eye wòanɔ Yerusalem ɣe sia ɣi.
Ngoba uDavida wathi: INkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ibanikile abantu bayo ukuphumula, bazahlala eJerusalema kuze kube sephakadeni.
26 Azɔ ya la, magahiã be Levitɔwo natsɔ Agbadɔ la kple nu siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ le eme la tso teƒe ɖeka ayi teƒe bubu o.”
Ngokunjalo-ke kumaLevi; kakulamuntu ozathwala ithabhanekele laloba yiziphi izitsha zalo zenkonzo yalo.
27 Levitɔwo xexlẽe nye nu mamlɛtɔ si David wɔ hafi ku.
Ngoba ngamazwi kaDavida okucina amadodana kaLevi abhalwa kusukela kwaleminyaka engamatshumi amabili kusiya phezulu.
28 Levitɔwo ƒe dɔe nye be, woakpe ɖe Aron ƒe dzidzimeviwo ŋu le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ ƒe dɔwo wɔwɔ me. Woawoe akpɔ, xɔxɔnuawo, xɔŋuxɔewo, nu kɔkɔeawo ŋu kɔkɔ ƒe wɔnawo dzi kple dɔ bubuwo wɔwɔ le Mawu ƒe aƒe la me.
Ngoba indawo yawo yayingasesandleni samadodana kaAroni enkonzweni yendlu yeNkosi, phezu kwamaguma, laphezu kwamakamelo, laphezu kokuhlambulula zonke izinto ezingcwele, lomsebenzi wenkonzo yendlu kaNkulunkulu,
29 Woawoe tsɔa ŋkumeɖobolo ɖoa kplɔ̃ dzi, tua wɔ hena nuɖuvɔsawo, mea akpɔnɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã, blua abolowɔ hemenɛ eye wokpɔa nudanuwo kple nudzidzenuwo katã dzi.
lowezinkwa zokubukiswa, lowempuphu ecolekileyo yomnikelo wokudla, lowezinkwana eziyizipatalala ezingelamvubelo, lowokubhakwe ngepani, lowokukhanzingiweyo, lowesilinganiso sonke lobukhulu;
30 Enɔ na wo hã be woatsi tsitre ada akpe, akafu Mawu ŋdi sia ŋdi. Woawɔ alea fiẽ sia fiẽ hã.
lokuma ukusa ngokusa ukubonga lokudumisa iNkosi, kanjalo lantambama,
31 Nenema kee woawɔ nenye be wole numevɔwo sam na Yehowa le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkekewo dzi, Dzinu yeye ŋkekenyuiwo kple ŋkekenyui ɖoɖi bubuwo dzi. Enɔ na wo be woasubɔ le Yehowa ŋkume le agbɔsɔsɔ aɖe sinu me ɣe sia ɣi le ɖoɖo si wogblɔ ɖa ɖi na wo la nu.
lokunikela konke kweminikelo yokutshiswa eNkosini ngamasabatha, ngokuthwasa kwenyanga, langemikhosi emisiweyo, ngenani, ngokwesimiso kukho, njalonjalo phambi kweNkosi.
32 Ale Levitɔwo wɔa woƒe dɔdeasiwo le Agbadɔ la me, le Kɔkɔeƒe la me eye wowɔnɛ le wo nɔvi siwo nye Aron ƒe dzidzimeviwo la ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te. Wowɔa dɔ siawo katã le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
Njalo azagcina umlindo wethente lenhlangano, lomlindo wendlu engcwele, lomlindo wamadodana kaAroni, abafowabo, enkonzweni yendlu yeNkosi.
