28 et reliqui de populo sacerdotes Levitae ianitores et cantores Nathinnei et omnes qui se separaverunt de populis terrarum ad legem Dei uxores eorum filii eorum et filiae eorum

And the rest of the people were the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, and the singers, the temple servants, and all who had separated themselves, from the peoples of the lands, to the law of God, with their wives, their sons, and their daughters.

29 omnis qui poterat sapere spondentes pro fratribus suis optimates eorum et qui veniebant ad pollicendum et iurandum ut ambularent in lege Dei quam dederat in manu Mosi servi Dei ut facerent et custodirent universa mandata Domini Dei nostri et iudicia eius et caerimonias eius

All who were able to understand, pledged on behalf of their brothers, with their nobles, and they came forward to promise and to swear that they would walk in the law of God, which he had given to the hand of Moses, the servant of God, that they would do and keep all the commandments of the Lord our God, and his judgments and his ceremonies,

30 et ut non daremus filias nostras populo terrae et filias eorum non acciperemus filiis nostris

and that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land, and that we would not accept their daughters for our sons,

31 populi quoque terrae qui inportant venalia et omnia ad usum per diem sabbati ut vendant non accipiemus ab eis in sabbato et in die sanctificata et dimittemus annum septimum et exactionem universae manus

also that, if the people of the land carry in goods for sale or any useful things, so that they might sell them on the day of the Sabbath, that we would not buy them on the Sabbath, nor on a sanctified day, and that we would release the seventh year and the collection of debt from every hand.

32 et statuemus super nos praecepta ut demus tertiam partem sicli per annum ad opus domus Dei nostri

And we established precepts over ourselves, so that we would give one third part of a shekel each year for the work of the house of our God,

33 ad panes propositionis et ad sacrificium sempiternum et in holocaustum sempiternum in sabbatis in kalendis in sollemnitatibus et in sanctificatis et pro peccato ut exoretur pro Israhel et in omnem usum domus Dei nostri

for the bread of the presence, and for the continual sacrifice, and for a continual holocaust on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, on the solemnities, and for the holy things, and for the sin offering, so that atonement would be made for Israel, and for every use within the house of our God.

34 sortes ergo misimus super oblatione lignorum inter sacerdotes et Levitas et populos ut inferrentur in domum Dei nostri per domos patrum nostrorum per tempora a temporibus anni usque ad annum ut arderent super altare Domini Dei nostri sicut scriptum est in lege Mosi

Then we cast lots concerning the oblation of the wood among the priests, and the Levites, and the people, so that it would be carried into the house of our God, by the households of our fathers, at set times, from the times of one year to another, so that they might burn upon the altar of the Lord our God, just as it was written in the law of Moses,

35 et ut adferremus primogenita terrae nostrae et primitiva universi fructus omnis ligni ab anno in annum in domo Domini

and so that we might bring in the first-fruits of our land, and the first-fruits of all the produce from every tree, from year to year, in the house of our Lord,

36 et primitiva filiorum nostrorum et pecorum nostrorum sicut scriptum est in lege et primitiva boum nostrorum et ovium nostrarum ut offerrentur in domo Dei nostri sacerdotibus qui ministrant in domo Dei nostri

and the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, just as it was written in the law, and the firstborn of our oxen and our sheep, so that they might be offered in the house of our God, to the priests who minister in the house of our God,

37 et primitias ciborum nostrorum et libaminum nostrorum et poma omnis ligni vindemiae quoque et olei adferemus sacerdotibus ad gazofilacium Dei nostri et decimam partem terrae nostrae Levitis ipsi Levitae decimas accipient ex omnibus civitatibus operum nostrorum

and so that we might bring in the first-fruits of our foods, and of our libations, and the fruits of every tree, also of the vintage and of the oil, to the priests, to the storehouse of our God, with the tithes of our land for the Levites. The Levites also shall receive tithes from our works out of all the cities.

38 erit autem sacerdos filius Aaron cum Levitis in decimis Levitarum et Levitae offerent decimam partem decimae suae in domum Dei nostri ad gazofilacium in domo thesauri

Now the priest, the son of Aaron, shall be with the Levites in the tithes of the Levites, and the Levites shall offer a tenth part of their tithes in the house of our God, to the storeroom in the house of the treasury.

39 ad gazofilacium enim deportabunt filii Israhel et filii Levi primitias frumenti vini et olei et ibi erunt vasa sanctificata et sacerdotes et cantores et ianitores et ministri et non dimittemus domum Dei nostri

For the sons of Israel and the sons of Levi shall carry to the storehouse the first-fruits of the grain, of the wine, and of the oil. And the sanctified vessels shall be there, and the priests, and the singing men, and the gatekeepers, and the ministers. And we shall not forsake the house of our God.
