Sie Chronicle 24

1 Pa inge u ma tuku ke fita lal Aaron. Oasr wen akosr natul Aaron: elos pa Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar ac Ithamar.

Now, the sons of Aaron, had their courses, —the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar;

2 Nadab ac Abihu eltal misa meet liki papa tumaltal, ac wangin tulik natultal, na pa Eleazar ac Ithamar eltal mwet tol.

but Nadab and Abihu, died, before their father, and sons, had they none, —but Eleazar and Ithamar became priests;

3 Tokosra David el oakiya wen natul Aaron nu ke kais sie u, fal nu ke orekma kunalos. Mwet luo ma kasrel ke oakwuk se inge pa Zadok in fwil natul Eleazar, ac Ahimelech in fwil natul Ithamar.

and David apportioned to them courses, both to Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and to Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, —by their appointed place in their service.

4 Mwet in fwil natul Eleazar elos oakwuki nu ke u singoul onkosr, ac mwet in fwil natul Ithamar elos oakwuki nu ke u oalkosr. Orek ouinge ke sripen pus mukul su sifen sou in fwil natul Eleazar.

But the sons of Eleazar were found to be more numerous, by the chiefs of their able men, than were the sons of Ithamar, so they divided them, —the sons of Eleazar, had chiefs, of the ancestral house, sixteen, whereas, the sons of Ithamar, had of their ancestral house, eight.

5 In fwil natul Eleazar ac fwil natul Ithamar kewa, oasr mwet pwapa nu ke orekma lun Tempul oayapa mwet kol ke moul in ngun, na pa elos eis kunalos ke susfa.

They divided them, therefore, by [casting] lots, these with those, —for there were princes of the sanctuary, and princes of God, from among the sons of Eleazar, and among the sons of Ithamar.

6 Mwet in fwil natul Eleazar ac natul Ithamar elos kais sie fahsr susfa. Na toko simla inelos yurin mwet sim lun mwet Levi, su el pa Shemaiah wen natul Nethanel. Mwet loh ke ma inge pa tokosra ac mwet pwapa lal, oayapa Zadok mwet tol, Ahimelech wen natul Abiathar, ac sifen sou lun mwet tol, ac sifen sou lun mwet Levi.

And Shemaiah son of Nethanel the scribe from among the Levites, wrote them down, before the king and the rulers and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the ancestral chiefs, pertaining to the priests and to the Levites, —one ancestral house, was taken for Eleazar, and, was equally taken, for Ithamar.
