1 Istwa 24
1 Men moun ki te soti nan branch fanmi Arawon an dapre travay yo. Arawon te gen kat pitit gason: Nadab, Abiyou, Eleaza ak Itama.
Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2 Men Nadab ak Abiyou mouri anvan papa yo, san kite pitit gason. Konsa, se Eleaza ak Itama ki vin prèt apre Arawon.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.
3 Avèk konkou Zadòk, moun fanmi Eleaza a, ak Akimelèk, moun fanmi Itama a, wa David separe moun fanmi Arawon yo an gwoup. Chak gwoup te gen travay pa yo.
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 Men, lè yo jwenn te gen plis gason chèf fanmi nan moun Eleaza yo pase nan moun Itama yo, yo òganize sèz gwoup nan moun Eleaza yo ak wit gwoup nan moun Itama yo.
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 Nan tou de fanmi yo te gen moun ki te chèf nan Tanp lan ak chèf pou fè sèvis Bondye. Chak moun te gen tou pa yo. Yo te fè yo piye pou yo te ka konnen tou chak moun.
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 Se konsa, Chemaja, pitit Netaneyèl, yonn nan moun Levi yo, ki te sekretè, te kouche non yo nan rejis devan wa a, devan chèf yo, devan Zadòk, prèt la, devan Akimelèk, pitit Abyata, ak devan tout chèf fanmi prèt yo ak moun Levi yo. Yo piye yonn apre lòt, de moun Eleaza pou chak yon moun Itama.
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.

19 Se konsa yo te enskri non moun sa yo nan jan pou yo te al nan Tanp lan pou fè travay yo yonn apre lòt, jan Arawon zansèt yo te mete l' pou yo fè l' la, dapre lòd Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, te bay.
These were the orderings of them in their service to come into the house of Yhwh, according to their manner, under Aaron their father, as Yhwh God of Israel had commanded him.

31 Tankou moun fanmi Arawon yo, yo menm tou, yo piye devan wa David, devan Zadòk ak Akimelèk, devan chèf fanmi prèt yo ak moun Levi yo, pou yo separe travay la bay chak moun pa yo, depi sou fanmi chèf yo rive sou fanmi pi piti ladan yo, san patipri.
These likewise cast lots over against their brethren the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal fathers over against their younger brethren.
