Kronika 1 24
1 Esiawoe nye Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo ƒe mama ɖe hawo me. Aron ƒe viŋutsuwo nye Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar kple Itamar.
These were the divisions of the descendants of Aaron. The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2 Ke Nadab kple Abihu ku do ŋgɔ na wo fofo; viŋutsu aɖeke menɔ wo si o ale Eleazar kple Itamar wɔ dɔ abe nunɔlawo ene.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did, and they had no sons; so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
3 David kple Zadok, ame si nɔ Eleazar ƒe hlɔ̃metɔwo teƒe kple Ahimelek, ame si nɔ Itamar ƒe hlɔ̃metɔwo teƒe la, ma Aron ƒe dzidzimeviwo ɖe hatsotsowo me be, woawɔ subɔsubɔdɔawo le ɣeyiɣi vovovoawo me.
With the help of Eleazar’s descendant Zadok and Ithamar’s descendant Ahimelech, David divided them according to the offices of their service.
4 Woma Eleazar ƒe dzidzimeviwo ɖe akpa wuiade me eye woma Itamar tɔwo ɖe akpa enyi me elabena ame siwo ŋu amekpɔkplɔ ƒe ŋutete nɔ la, sɔ gbɔ le Eleazar ƒe dzidzimeviwo dome wu.
Since more leaders were found among Eleazar’s descendants than those of Ithamar, they were divided accordingly. There were sixteen heads of families from the descendants of Eleazar and eight from the descendants of Ithamar.
5 Woda akɔ hafi de dɔawo asi na hatsotso vovovoawo ale be ameŋkumekpɔkpɔ aɖeke menɔ anyi o elabena Mawu ƒe ame xɔŋkɔwo kple amegãwo tso Eleazar kple Itamar ƒe ƒome me.
Thus they were divided by lot, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God among both Eleazar’s and Ithamar’s descendants.
6 Semaya, tso Levitɔwo dome, ame si fofoe nye Netanel la, nye nuŋlɔla. Eŋlɔ ameawo ƒe ŋkɔwo kple woƒe dɔdeasiwo da ɖi le fia la kple Nunɔla Zadok kple Ahimelek, Abiata ƒe vi kple Levitɔwo ƒe tatɔwo ŋkume. Wode dɔ ɖe sia ɖe asi na Eleazar ƒe viwo ƒe ha eveawo kple Itamar ƒe viwo ƒe ha ɖeka la sɔsɔe.
The scribe, Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, recorded their names in the presence of the king and of the officers: Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the heads of families of the priests and the Levites—one family being taken from Eleazar, and then one from Ithamar.
