David and some of the temple officials (OR, army commanders) chose some of the descendants of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun to be in charge of proclaiming God’s messages, and to play harps and lyres and cymbals. This is a list of the men whom they chose for that work:
2 Wen akosr natul Asaph: Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, ac Asharelah. Elos muta ye koko lal Asaph, su fahkak kas lun God ke pacl ma tokosra el sapkin.
From the sons of Asaph they chose Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Aserelah. Asaph supervised them. And the king appointed Asaph to proclaim God’s messages.

From the sons of Jeduthun they chose six men: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah. Jeduthun supervised them and also proclaimed God’s messages, playing his harp while he thanked and praised Yahweh.

5 God El tuh sang nu sel Heman, mwet liyaten lun tokosra, wen singoul akosr inge oayapa acn tolu oana El tuh wulela kac, tuh in sang ku nu sel Heman.
God promised to cause Heman to be strong, so altogether, God have him 14 sons and three daughters.
6 Wen nukewa natul elos mwet srital ke cymbal ac harp ye koko lun papa tumalos ke pacl in alu in Tempul. Asaph, Jeduthun, ac Heman elos orekma ye koko lal tokosra.
All those men were supervised by their fathers while they played music in the temple of Yahweh. They played cymbals, lyres, and harps. And their fathers—Asaph, Jeduthun and Heman—were supervised by the king.
7 Mwet longoul akosr inge kewa mwet na pisrla ke on. Mwet Levi wialos elos mwet lutlut on ac pah in srital ke mwe on-mukul luofoko oalngoul oalkosr nufon.
