1 Apre sa, wa David ak chèf moun Levi ki reskonsab sèvis nan Tanp lan te chwazi branch fanmi Asaf, branch fanmi Eyman ak branch fanmi Jedoutoun pou ba yo travay pa yo. Se yo ki pou bay mesaj Bondye yo, antan y'ap jwe gita, bandjo ak senbal. Men lis moun yo te chwazi yo ak travay yo chak:
Then David and the magistrates of the army set apart, for the ministry, the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who were to prophesy with harps and psalteries and cymbals, in accord with their number, having been dedicated to their appointed office.
2 Asaf te gen kat pitit: Zakou, Jozèf, Netama ak Acharela. Yo te sou zòd Asaf. Se li ki te konn fè konnen mesaj Bondye yo chak lè wa a mande l' pou l' fè l'.
From the sons of Asaph: Zaccur, and Joseph, and Nethaniah, and Asharelah, the sons of Asaph, under the hand of Asaph, prophesying beside the king.
3 Jedoutoun te gen sis pitit: Gedalya, Zeri, Izayi, Chimèy, Asabya ak Matatya. Yo te sou zòd Jedoutoun, papa yo. Se yo ki te konn fè konnen mesaj Bondye yo antan y'ap jwe gita, pou fè lwanj Bondye, pou di l' mèsi.
Then of Jeduthun, the sons of Jeduthun: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, and Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hand of their father Jeduthun, who was prophesying with stringed instruments, while confessing and praising the Lord.
4 Eyman te gen katòz pitit: Boukija, Matanya, Ouzyèl, Sebwèl, Jerimòt, Ananya, Anani, Elyata, Gidalti, Womanti-Ezè, Josbekacha, Maloti, Oti ak Maziòt.
Also, of Heman, the sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, and Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, and Romamtiezer, and Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, Mahazioth.
5 Bondye te bay Eyman, pwofèt wa a, katòz pitit gason sa yo ak twa pitit fi, dapre pwomès li te fè l' pou l' te ba li anpil pouvwa. Lè yo t'ap fè konnen mesaj Bondye yo, se yo ki te pou kònen twonpèt yo.
All these were the sons of Heman, the seer of the king in the words of God, in order to lift up the horn. And God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
6 Se Eyman, papa yo, ki t'ap dirije yo lè y'ap chante nan sèvis y'ap fè nan Tanp Bondye a, antan y'ap jwe gita, bandjo ak senbal. Asaf, Jedoutoun ak Eyman te sou zòd wa a.
All these, under their father’s hand, were distributed in order to sing in the temple of the Lord, with cymbals and psalteries and harps, in the ministry of the house of the Lord beside the king, specifically, Asaph, and Jeduthun, and Heman.
7 Sa te fè antou desankatrevenwit (288) mizisyen ki te fò nan fè mizik, ansanm ak tout lòt moun Levi parèy yo ki te aprann chante pou Seyè a.
Now the number of these, with their brothers, who were instructing in the song of the Lord, all the teachers, were two hundred eighty-eight.
8 Yo fè tout moun piye, gran kou piti, ni sa ki te fò nan fè mizik, ni sa ki te fèk konmanse aprann, pou yo te ka konnen lè pou yo fè travay yo nan sèvis la.
And they cast lots in their turns, the elder equally with the younger, the learned together with the unlearned.
9 Desankatrevenwit (288) mesye sa yo te separe chak fanmi apa. Sa te fè vennkat gwoup. Chak gwoup te gen douz moun. Nan chak gwoup te gen yon chèf ak pitit gason l' yo ansanm ak frè l' yo. Men nan ki lòd yo te soti apre yo fin piye a. Premye a te Jozèf nan fanmi Asaf la, dezyèm lan Gedalya,
