8 A o na Levi: Iesua, Binui, Kademiela, Serebia, Iuda, Matania; oia a me kona poe hoahanau ka poe maluna o ka hoolea ana'ku.

And, the Levites, Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, Mattaniah, —over the choirs, he and his brethren;

9 A o Bakebukia, a me Uni a me ko laua mau hoahanau, ma ke alo aku lakou o kela poe ma ke kiai ana.

and Bakbukiah and Unno their brethren, were over against them, in wards.

10 A na Iesua o Ioiakima, a na Ioiakims o Eliasiba, a na Eliasiba o Ioiada,

And Jeshua, begat Joiakim, —and Joiakim, begat Eliashib, and, Eliashib, [begat] Joiada;

11 A na Ioiada o Ionatana, a na Ionatana o Iadua.

and, Joiada, begat Jonathan, —and, Jonathan, begat Jaddua.

12 I na la ia Ioiakima, he poe kahuna, he poe koikoi lakou o na makua: na Seraia o Meraia, na Iremia o Hanania,

And, in the days of Joiakim, were priests, ancestral chiefs, —of Seraiah, Meraiah, of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

22 O na Levi i na lu ia Eliasiba, Ioiada, a me Iohanana, a me Iadua, ua kakauia lakou he poe koikoi o na makua; pela no hoi na kahuna a hiki i ke kau ia Dariu no Peresia.

The Levites—in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were recorded as ancestral chiefs, —also the priests, unto the reign of Darius the Persian.

23 O na mamo a Levi, ka poe koikoi o na makua, ua kakauia lakou ma ka buke o ka Oihanaalii a hiki i na la ia Iohanana ke keiki a Eliasiba.

the sons of Levi, ancestral heads, were written in the book of Chronicles, —even until the days of Johanan, son of Eliashib.

24 A o ka poe koikoi o na Levi, o Hasabia, Serebeia a me Iesua ke keiki a Kademiela, a o na hoahanau o lakou ma ko lakou alo aku e hoonani a e hoolea aku, e like me ke kauoha a Davids ke kanaka o ke Akua, he papa ma ke alo aku o kekahi papa.

And, the chiefs of the Levites, Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise—to give thanks, by the commandment of David the man of God, —ward joined to ward.

25 O Matania, a me Bakebukia, o Obadia, Mesulama, Telemona, Akuba, he poe kiaipuka lakou e kiai ana ma na waihonawaiwai o na puka.

Mattaniah and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were watchers, doorkeepers of the ward, in the storehouses of the gates.

26 Oia no ka poe i na la ia Ioiakima ke keiki a Iesua, ke keiki a Iozadaka, a i na la ia Nehemia ke kiaaina, a me Ezera ke kahuna, ke kakauolelo.

These, were in the days of Joiakim, son of Jeshua, son of Jozadak, —and in the days of Nehemiah the pasha, and Ezra the priest the scribe.

27 A i ka hoolaa ana o ka pa o Ierusalems, imi aku la lakou i na Levi mailoko mai o na wahi a pau loa o lakou, e hoakoakoa mai ia lakou i Ierusalema, e hana i ka hoolaa ana me ka olioli, a me ka hoolea ana'ku a me ke mele, me na kimebala, na lira a me na mea kani.

And, at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sought the Levites, out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, —to keep the dedication and the rejoicing, both with thanksgiving and with music, cymbals, harps, and with lyres.

28 Hoakoakoaia mai la ka poe mele mai ka papu mai a puni Ierusalema, a mai na kauhale o ko Netopa.

So the sons of the singers gathered themselves together, —both out of the circuit round about Jerusalem, and out of the villages of the Netophathites;

29 A mailoko mai o Gilegala, a mai na aina mai o Geba a me Azemaveta: no ka mea, ua kukulu ka poe mele i mau kauhale no lakou a puni Ierusalema.

also out of Beth-gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba, and Azmaveth, —for, villages, had the singers builded for themselves, round about Jerusalem.

30 Huikala iho la na kahuna a me na Levi ia lakou iho, a huikala no hoi lakou i ka poe kanaka a me na puka a me ka pa.

And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, —and purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.

31 Alaila alakai ae la au i na luna o ka Iuda maluna ae o ka pa, a hoomakaukau iho la au i elua poe nui e hoolea, e hele ae ma ka aoao akau aku kekahi, maluna ae o ka pa a i ka puka lepo.

Then brought I up the rulers of Judah upon the wall, —and I appointed two large choirs, even to go in procession to the right, upon the wall, towards the dung-gate;

32 A hele ae la mahope o lakou o Hosaia, a me ka hapalua o na luna o ka Iuda,

and after them went Hoshaiah, and half the rulers of Judah;

33 A me Azaria, Ezera, a me Mesulama,

then Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam;

34 Iuda a me Beniamina a me Samaia a me Ieremia,

Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah;

35 A me kekahi o na keiki a na kahuna me na pu puhi; o Zekaria ke keiki a Ionatana, ke keiki a Semaia, ke keiki a Matania, ke keiki a Mikaia, ke keiki a Zakura, ke keiki a Asapa;

and, of the sons of the priests, with trumpets, Zechariah—son of Jonathan—son of Shemaiah—son of Mattaniah, son of Micaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph;

36 A me kona mau hoahanau, o Semaia a me Azaraela, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Netaneela a me Iuda, Hanani, me na mea kani a Davida ke kanaka o ke Akua: a o Ezera ke kakauolelo mamua ia o lakou.

and his brethren—Shemaiah and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the instruments of music of David, the man of God, —with Ezra the scribe before them;

37 A ma ka puka waipuna e ku pono ana i ko lakou alo, pii ae la lakou ma na anuunuu o ke kulanakauhale o Davida ma kahi kiekie o ka pa, maluna aku o ka hale o Davida, a i ka puka wai ma ka hikina.

and, over they fountain gate and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall, —above the house of David, even as far as the water-gate, eastward.

38 A o ka lua o ka poe hoolea, hele ae la lakou ma ka aoao hema aku, a owau mahope o lakou, a me ka hapalua o ka poe kanaka maluna ae o ka pa, a maluna ae o ka halekiai ma kahi o na umu a hiki i ka pa palahalaha;

And, the second choir, was going over against them, I, following it, —with the half of the people upon the wall, above the tower of the ovens, even as far as the broad wall;

39 A maluna ae o ka puka o Eperaima, a maluna ae o ka puka kahiko, a maluna o ka puka ia, a me ka halekiai o Hananeela, a me ka halekiai o Mea, a hiki i ka puka hipa; a ku lakou ma ka puka halepaahao.

and above the gate of Ephraim, and upon the old gate, and upon the fish-gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even as far as the sheep-gate, —and they came to a stand, at the gate of the guard.

40 Ku iho la na poe hoolea elua iloko o ka hale o ke Akua, a owau hoi, a me ka hapalua o na luna me au;

So the two choirs, came to a stand, at the house of God, —and I, and half the deputies with me;

41 A me na kahuna; Eliakima, Maaseia, Miniamina, Mikaia, Elioenai, Zekaria, Hanania, me na pu;

and, the priests—Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;

42 A me Maaseia, a me Semaia, a me Eleazara, a me Uzi a me Iehohanana, a me Malekia, a me Elama, a me Ezera. A hoolea aku la ka poe mele, a me Iezerahia ko lakou luna.

and Maaseiah and Shemaiah and Eleazar and Uzzi and Jehohanan and Malchijah and Elam and Ezer, —and the musicians sounded, aloud with Jezrahiah who was over them.

43 Mohai aku la lakou ia la i na mohai nui, a hauoli iho la; no ka mea, ua hoohauoli ke Akua ia lakou me ka olioli nui; hauoli no hoi na wahine a me na kamalii; a lohea ka hauoli ana o Ierusalema ma kahi loihi.

And they sacrificed, on that day, great sacrifices, and rejoiced, for, God, had caused them to rejoice with great joy, moreover also, the women and children, rejoiced, —so that the rejoicing of Jerusalem was heard afar off.

44 A hoonohoia ia la kekahi poe kanaka maluna o na keena no na mea laa, no na makana, no na hua mua, a no na hapaumi, e hoiliili iloko olaila, na na aina mai o na kulanakauhale, i na haawina i kauohaia'i no ka poe kahuna a me na Levi; no ka mea, hauoli iho la ka Iuda maluna o na kahuna a maluna o na Levi e ku mai ana.

And there were set in charge, on that day, certain men, over the chambers for the treasures, for the heave-offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, out of the fields of the cities, the portions appointed by the law, for the priests, and for the Levites, —for, the joy of Judah, was over the priests and over the Levites, who were remaining.

45 Malama iho la ka poe mele a me ka poe kiaipuka i ka oihana a ko lakou Akua, a me ka oihana o ka huikala ana, e like me ke kauoha a Davida, a me Solomona kana keiki.

So they kept the charge of their God, and the charge of the purification, and [so did] the singers and the doorkeepers, —according to the commandment of David and of Solomon his son.

46 No ka mea, i na la o Davida a me Asapa, mai ka wa kahiko mai, he poe luna no maluna o ka poe mele, a he mau mele no e hoolea aku ai a e hoonani aku ai i ke Akua.

For, in the days of David and Asaph, of old, there were chiefs of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving, unto God.

47 A i na la o Zerubabela a i na la o Nehemia, haawi mai la ka Iseraela a pau i na haawina no ka poe mele a me ka poe kiaipuka, kekahi i kela la i keia la: a hoano ae la lakou i na mea no na Levi; a hoano ae la o na Levi no na mamo a Aarona.

Now, all Israel—in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, used to give the portions of the singers and the doorkeepers, the need of a day upon its day, —and they hallowed them unto the Levites, and, the Levites, hallowed them unto the sons of Aaron.
