1 Maũndũ 24
1 Ici nĩcio ciarĩ ikundi cia ariũ a Harũni: Ariũ a Harũni maarĩ Nadabu, na Abihu, na Eleazaru, na Ithamaru.
NOW these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2 No rĩrĩ, Nadabu na Abihu nĩmakuire ithe wao atakuĩte, na matiarĩ na ciana cia aanake; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Eleazaru na Ithamaru magĩtungata marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.
3 Zadoku wa rũciaro rwa Eleazaru na Ahimeleku wa rũciaro rwa Ithamaru nĩo maateithĩrĩirie Daudi kũmagayania ikundi, nĩ ũndũ wa mũtaratara wa ũtungata ũrĩa maathuurĩirwo.
And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
4 Atongoria arĩa aingĩ moimĩte njiaro-inĩ cia Eleazaru gũkĩra arĩa moimĩte njiaro-inĩ cia Ithamaru, nao makĩgayanio ta ũũ: kuuma njiaro-inĩ cia Eleazaru kwarĩ na atongoria a nyũmba ikũmi na atandatũ, na kuuma njiaro-inĩ cia Ithamaru kwarĩ na atongoria a nyũmba anana.
And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and thus were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
5 Maamagayanirie na kĩhooto na ũndũ wa gũcuuka mĩtĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩ haarĩ na anene a handũ-harĩa-haamũre, na anene a nyũmba ya Ngai gatagatĩ-inĩ ka njiaro icio cia Eleazaru na cia Ithamaru.
Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
6 Shemaia mũrũ wa Nethaneli, ũrĩa mwandĩki-marũa Mũlawii, nĩandĩkire marĩĩtwa mao arĩ mbere ya mũthamaki na anene aya: Zadoku ũrĩa-mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Ahimeleku mũrũ wa Abiatharu, na atongoria a nyũmba cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai na cia Alawii. Nyũmba ĩmwe ĩgathuurwo kuuma kũrĩ Eleazaru, na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩgathuurwo kuuma kũrĩ Ithamaru.
And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and before the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.
