9 Anplis Bakbukia avèk Unni, frè pa yo ki te kanpe anfas yo nan divizyon sèvis yo.
with Bakbukiah, as well as Hannai, and their brothers, each one in his office.

11 Jojada te fè Jonathan e Jonathan te fè Jaddua.

22 Epi pou Levit yo, chèf an tèt lakay papa zansèt pa yo te anrejistre nan jou a Éliaschib yo, Jojada, avèk Jochanan ak Jaddua; konsa yo te sèvi kon prèt nan règn Darius, Perse la.
The Levites, in the days of Eliashib, and Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, and the priests, were written according to the leaders of the families, during the reign of Darius the Persian.
23 Fis a Lévi yo, chèf an tèt lakay papa zansèt yo, te anrejistre nan Liv A Kwonik yo jis rive nan tan Jochanan, fis Éliaschib la.
The sons of Levi, according to the leaders of the families, were written in the book of the words of those days, even to the days of Johanan, the son of Eliashib.
24 Chèf an tèt a Levit yo te Haschabia, Schérébia e Josué, fis a Kadmiel la, avèk frè pa yo anfas yo, pou bay lwanj avèk remèsiman, jan sa te preskri pa David, nonm Bondye a, divizyon ki te koresponn ak divizyon.
Now the leaders of the Levites were Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua, the son of Kadmiel, and their brothers, in their turns, so that they would praise and confess, according to the precept of David, the man of God. And they served equally and in order.
25 Matthania, Bakbukia, Abdias, Meschullam, Thalmon avèk Akkub, te gadyen pòtay ki te responsab veye depo pòtay yo.
Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were keepers of the gates and of the vestibules before the gates.
26 Sila yo te sèvi nan jou a Jojakim yo, fis a Josué a, fis a Jotsadak la e nan jou a Néhémie yo, gouvènè a, avèk Esdras, prèt la ak skrib.
These were in the days of Joiakim, the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah, the governor, and of Ezra, the priest and scribe.
27 Alò, nan dedikasyon miray Jérusalem nan, yo te chache twouve Levit soti nan tout plas yo pou mennen yo Jérusalem pou yo ta kab selebre dedikasyon an avèk jwa, avèk lwanj kè kontan, avèk chan avèk senbal, ap ak lenstriman a kòd yo.
Now at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sought the Levites from all their places, so that they might bring them to Jerusalem, and so that they might keep the dedication, and rejoice with thanksgiving, and with singing, and with cymbals, psalteries, and lyres.
28 Konsa, fis a chantè yo te rasanble soti nan distri ki te antoure Jérusalem nan e soti nan vilaj a Netofatyen yo,
Now the sons of the singing men were gathered from the plains surrounding Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophati,
29 soti Beth-Guilgal, avèk chan nan Guéba avèk Azmavet, paske chantè yo te fin bati pou kont yo vilaj nan anviwon Jérusalem yo.
and from the house of Gilgal, and from the regions of Geba and Azmaveth. For the singing men had built villages for themselves around Jerusalem.
30 Prèt yo avèk Levit yo te pirifye tèt yo; anplis, yo te pirifye pèp la, pòt yo avèk miray la.
And the priests and the Levites were cleansed, and they cleansed the people, and the gates, and the wall.
31 Konsa, mwen te fè dirijan a Juda yo vin monte sou miray la, e mwen te chwazi de gran gwoup koral premye ki t ap sòti sou bò dwat anlè miray la vè Pòtay Kolin Fimye a.
Then I caused the leaders of Judah to ascend the wall, and I appointed two great choirs to give praise. And they went to the right upon the wall, toward the dung gate.
32 Hosée avèk mwatye nan dirijan Juda yo te swiv yo,
And after them went Hoshaiah, and one half part of the leadership of Judah,
33 avèk Azaria, Esdras, Meschullam,
and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
34 Juda, Benjamin, Schemaja, avèk Jérémie,
Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah.
35 epi kèk nan fis a prèt yo avèk twonpèt yo: Zacharie, fis a Jonathan an, fis a Schemaeja a, fis a Matthania a, fis a Michée a, fis a Zaccur a, fis a Asaph la;
And some of the sons of the priests went forth with trumpets: Zachariah, the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph.
36 avèk fanmi li yo, Schemaeja, Azaneel, Juda ak Hanani, avèk enstriman mizik a David yo, nonm Bondye a. Epi Esdras, skrib la, te ale devan yo.
And his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, and Hanani, went forth with the canticles of David, the man of God. And Ezra, the scribe, was before them at the fountain gate.
37 Nan Pòtay Sous Bwote a, yo te monte tou dwat sou eskalye lavil David la toupre eskalye miray la anwo lakay David la, pou rive nan Pòtay Dlo a vè lès.
And opposite them, they ascended by the steps of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall above the house of David, and as far as the water gate to the east.
38 Dezyèm koral la te ale vè goch, pandan mwen t ap swiv yo avèk mwatye pèp la sou miray la, anwo Tou Founo yo, rive nan Gran Miray la.
And the second choir of those who gave thanks went forth on the opposite side, and I went after them, and one half part of the people were upon the wall, and upon the tower of the furnaces, as far as the widest wall,
39 Epi anwo Pòtay Éphraïm nan, kote Pòtay ansyen an, kote Pòtay Pwason an, Fò Hananeel la ak fò a dè Santèn yo, jis rive nan Pòtay Mouton yo; epi yo te rete kanpe nan Pòtay Gad la.
and above the gate of Ephraim, and above the ancient gate, and above the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hamath, and as far as the flock gate. And they stood still at the watch gate.
40 Epi de koral yo te kanpe nan pozisyon yo lakay Bondye a, e mwen menm tou, avèk mwatye ofisye ki te avè m yo;
And the two choirs of those who gave praise stood still at the house of God, with myself and one half part of the magistrates who were with me.
41 epi prèt yo, Éliakim, Maaséja, Minjamin, Michée, Eljoénaï, Zacharie, Hanania, avèk twonpèt yo;
And the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Mijamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, Hananiah, went forth with trumpets,
42 epi Maaséja, Schemaeja, Éléazar, Uzzi, Jochanan, Malkija, Élam ak Ézer. Epi chantè yo te chante avèk Jizrachja, dirijan pa yo a,
with Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers were singing clearly, and Jezrahiah was their foremost leader.
43 Nan jou sa a, yo te ofri gran sakrifis e te rejwi paske Bondye te bay yo gwo lajwa. Fanm yo ak timoun yo tou te rejwi, jiskaske lajwa Jérusalem nan te tande byen lwen.
And on that day, they immolated great sacrifices, and they rejoiced. For God had caused them to rejoice with great joy. And their wives and children also were glad. And the rejoicing of Jerusalem was heard from far away.
44 Anplis, nan jou sa a, mesye yo te chwazi kon responsab sou chanm depo yo, kontribisyon yo, premye fwi yo, ak dim yo, pou ranmase yo antre soti nan chan nan vil yo, pòsyon ki te mande pa lalwa a pou prèt ak Levit yo; paske Juda te rejwi de prèt avèk Levit ki te fè sèvis yo.
On that day also, they enrolled men over the storehouses of the treasury, for the libations, and for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, so that the leaders of the city might bring these in, by them, with proper thanksgiving, for the priests and the Levites. For Judah was rejoicing in the priests and the Levites who were assisting.
45 Paske, yo te ranpli devwa Bondye yo a, avèk sèvis pirifikasyon an, ansanm avèk chantè yo ak gadyen pòtay yo an akò avèk lòd David avèk fis li a, Salomon.
And they kept the vigil of their God, and the vigil of expiation, with the singing men and the gatekeepers, in accord with the precept of David, and of Solomon, his son.
46 Paske nan jou a David avèk Asaph yo, nan tan ansyen an, te gen dirijan pou chantè yo ak chan adorasyon yo, e kantik remèsiman a Bondye.
For in the days of David and Asaph, from the beginning, there were leaders appointed over the singers, to give praise in verses, and to confess to God.
47 Konsa, tout Israël nan jou Zorobabel avèk Néhémie yo te bay pòsyon ki te dwe fèt pou chantè yo avèk gadyen pòtay yo kon chak jou te mande a, e te mete apa pòsyon ki te konsakre a Levit yo; epi Levit yo te mete apa pòsyon ki te konsakre pou fis Aaron yo.
And all of Israel, in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave portions to the singing men and to the gatekeepers, for each day, and they sanctified the Levites, and the Levites sanctified the sons of Aaron.
