1 Hagi Deviti'ma ozafama nereno'a, nemofo Solomoninku Israeli vahe'mokizimi kini manigahie huno huhamprinte'ne.

Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.

2 Hanki maka Israeli vahe kva vahetamina zamavare atru nehuno, Pristi vahetamine, Livae vahetaminena Deviti'a zamavare atru hu'ne.

He gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.

3 Ana hutege'za 30'a kafuma agatere'nea Livae vene'nema hampri'nazana 38tauseni'a vahetami hampri'naze.

The Levites were counted from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.

4 Hagi Deviti'a amanage hu'ne, ama 24tauseni'a vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo mono nompi eri'zana erigahaze. Hagi ama 6tauseni'a vahe'mo'za mono nonte'ma ugagotama hanaza eri'zane, vahe keagama refkohu eri'za erigahaze.

David said, “Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of the LORD’s house, six thousand were officers and judges,

5 Hagi 4tauseni'a vahe'mo'za kuma kafante kvahu eri'za eri'nageno, mago 4tauseni'a vahe'mo'za Devitina'ma tro'ma hunte'noa zavena nehe'za zagame'ma hu'za Ra Anumzamofoma agima erisgahu vahe manigahaze.

four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made for giving praise.”

6 Ana huteno Deviti'a Livae nagapina 3'a nofi'ma mani'nazare vahera refko hu'ne. E'i ana 3'a nofira Livaena 3'a mofavre naga'afinti fore hu'nazankino, zamagi'a Gesoni'ma, Kohati'ma, Merari'e.

David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

7 Hagi Gesoni'a Ladanine Simeikizni kasezanante'ne.

Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.

8 Hagi Ladani'a 3'a ne' mofavrerami zamante'neankino zamagi'a, ese mofavre'a Jehieli manigeno, anantera Zetami mani'geno henkamo'a Joeli mani'ne.

The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, Zetham, and Joel, three.

9 Hagi Semei'a 3'a ne' mofavrerami kasente'neankino zamagi'a, Selomoti'ma, Hazieli'ma, Harani'e. Hagi Ladani nagapina ama ana 3'a vahe'mo'za kva mani'naze.

The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.

The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.

Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah didn’t have many sons; therefore they became a fathers’ house in one reckoning.

12 Hagi Kohati ne' mofavreramina, Amramu'ma, Izari'ma, Hebroni'ma, Uzielikino, ana makara 4'a mofavrerami kasezmante'ne.

The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.

Ana hu'neankino zamagra Ra Anumzamofo eri'zana eri'za ofa kresramna vunente'za, Agri agifina asomu kea Israeli vahera huzmante vava hugahaze.

The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons forever, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to him, and to bless in his name forever.

14 Hianagi Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Mosese ne'mofavre'mo'za Livae naga nofire hu'za mani'naze.

But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named amongst the tribe of Levi.

The son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.

22 Hagi Eleazari'a ne'mofavrea onte mofanege anteneno frige'za, ana mofanemo'za, nefu Kisi mofavreraminte mare'naze.

Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their relatives, the sons of Kish, took them as wives.

23 Hagi Musi'a 3'a ne'mofavrerami zmante'neankino zamagi'a, Mali'ma, Ederi'ma, Jeremoti'e.

The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth, three.

24 Hagi ama ana vahera Livae nagapinti'ma fore'ma hu'naza vaheki'za, magoke magoke naga nofizmire ugota hutere hu'nazageno zamagi kreno eri fatgo hu'nege'za 20'a kafuma agatere'naza vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo mono nompina eri'zana enerize.

These were the sons of Levi after their fathers’ houses, even the heads of the fathers’ houses of those who were counted individually, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the LORD’s house, from twenty years old and upward.

25 Hagi Deviti'a amanage hu'ne, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a vahe'a manigasa nezmino, Agra Jerusalemi kumapina mani vava hugahie.

For David said, “The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people; and he dwells in Jerusalem forever.

26 Hagi menina Livae naga'mo'za, Seli mono none ana nompima eri'zama e'neriza zantaminena eri'za vu'za e'za osugahaze.

Also the Levites will no longer need to carry the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service.”

27 Hagi Deviti'ma e'ina hiho huno'ma huvagare kema zamasami'nea kante ante'za, 20'a kafuma agatere'nea vahetami mono nompima eri'zama eri vahera zamagia krente'naze.

For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were counted, from twenty years old and upward.

28 Hanki Livae vahe'tmimofo eri'zana, Aroni naga'mokizmi zamaza hu'za Ra Anumzamofo nompima eri'zama erisaza eri'za me'ne. Hagi mago'a eri'zana mono nonkuma'ma kegava nehu'za, mono nompima eri'zama e'neriza zantamima zamazeri agruhu eri'zane, Anumzamofo nompima eri eri'zane, mago'a eri'zanena eri'naze.

For their duty was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the LORD’s house—in the courts, in the rooms, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of God’s house;

29 Hagi ruotgema hu'nea bretima itare'ma eme antaza bretine, witi ofama eme haza ofane, zo'ore breti ofane, olivi masavenema erihavia huno kre'nea kekine, anazantamima sigerirema erinteno kna'ama refko huno ke eri'zane kegava hu'naze.

for the show bread also, and for the fine flour for a meal offering, whether of unleavened wafers, or of that which is baked in the pan, or of that which is soaked, and for all measurements of quantity and size;

30 Hagi mika nanterane kinaganena Ra Anumzamofo avuga otine'za zagamera hu'za susu hunente'za, agia erisga hu'naze.

and to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise in the evening;

31 Hagi Sabati knare'ene kasefa ika ementegeno musema hu knare'ene mono'ma hu knare'ma zamaza hu'za Kresramana vanaza vahera, e'i'a vahe manine'za eri'zana erigahazema hu'nenia kante ante'za anama'a namba mani'neza, Ra Anumzamofo avuga ana eri'zantamina maka zupa erigahaze.

and to offer all burnt offerings to the LORD on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, in number according to the ordinance concerning them, continually before the LORD;

32 Hagi zamafuhe'za pristi naga'mo'za kegava huzmante'nage'za, Livae naga'mo'za maka eri'zana seli nompima ruotage'ma hu'nefina Ra Anumzamofo avuga eri'zana eri'naze.

and that they should keep the duty of the Tent of Meeting, the duty of the holy place, and the duty of the sons of Aaron their brothers for the service of the LORD’s house.
