1 Maũndũ 24
1 Ici nĩcio ciarĩ ikundi cia ariũ a Harũni: Ariũ a Harũni maarĩ Nadabu, na Abihu, na Eleazaru, na Ithamaru.
These were the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, 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 served as priests.
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.
David, with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to their ordering 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.
There were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and they were divided like this: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen, heads of fathers’ houses; and of the sons of Ithamar, according to their fathers’ houses, eight.
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 they were divided impartially by drawing lots; for there were princes of the sanctuary and princes of God, both 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.
Shemaiah the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was of the Levites, wrote them in the presence of the king, the princes, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers’ households of the priests and of the Levites; one fathers’ house being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.
