1 Ebyomumirembe 26
1 Ebibinja by’Abaggazi byali: Mu Bakola, waaliyo Meseremiya mutabani wa Kole, omu ku batabani ba Asafu.
Now the divisions of the porters were, from the Korahites: Meshelemiah, the son of Kore, of the sons of Asaph.
2 Meseremiya yalina abaana aboobulenzi nga Zekkaliya ye w’olubereberye, ne Yediyayeri nga wakubiri, ne Zebadiya nga wakusatu, ne Yasuniyeri nga wakuna,
The sons of Meshelemiah: Zechariah the firstborn, Jediael the second, Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth,
3 ne Eramu nga wakutaano, ne Yekokanani nga wamukaaga, ne Eriwenayi nga wa musanvu.
Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, Eliehoenai the seventh.
4 Obededomu naye yalina abaana aboobulenzi nga Semaaya ye w’olubereberye, ne Yekozabadi nga wakubiri, ne Yowa nga wakusatu, ne Sakali nga wakuna, ne Nesaneeri nga wakutaano,
Then the sons of Obededom: Shemaiah the firstborn, Jehozabad the second, Joah the third, Sachar the fourth, Nethanel the fifth,
5 ne Ammiyeri nga wamukaaga, ne Isakaali nga wa musanvu, Pewulesayi nga wa munaana, Katonda gwe yawa omukisa.
Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peullethai the eighth. For the Lord had blessed him.
6 Mutabani we Semaaya naye yalina abaana aboobulenzi, abaali abakulembeze mu nnyumba ya kitaabwe kubanga baali basajja bazira.
Now to his son Shemaiah, there were born sons, rulers of their families. For they were very strong men.
7 Batabani ba Semaaya baali Osuni, ne Lefayeri, ne Obedi ne Eruzabadi, ne baganda baabwe abaayitibwanga Eriku ne Semakiya nabo baali basajja bakozi.
Then the sons of Shemaiah were Othni, and Rephael, and Obed, Elzabad and his brothers, very strong men, as well as Elihu and Semachiah.
8 Abo bonna baali bazzukulu ba Obededomu, era bonna awamu ne batabani baabwe n’ab’eŋŋanda zaabwe abalala baali basajja bajjumbize, ate nga bakozi ab’amaanyi olw’omulimu ogwo. Bonna awamu baali nkaaga mu babiri.
All these were from the sons of Obededom: they and their sons and brothers, very fit for the ministry, sixty-two from Obededom.
9 Meseremiya naye yalina abaana aboobulenzi, n’ab’eŋŋanda ze bonna awamu abasajja abakozi, kkumi na munaana.
Then there were the sons of Meshelemiah and their brothers, very robust men, eighteen.
10 Kosa, omu ku bazzukulu ba Merali yalina abaana aboobulenzi nga Simuli ye mukulu, newaakubadde nga si ye yali omubereberye kitaawe yali amufudde omukulu;
Now, from Hosah, that is, from the sons of Merari: Shimri the leader, for he had not had a firstborn son, and so, because of this, his father had appointed him as the leader,
11 Kirukiya nga wakubiri, ne Tebaliya nga wakusatu, ne Zekkaliya nga wakuna. Batabani ba Kosa n’ab’eŋŋanda be bonna awamu baali kkumi na basatu.
Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, Zechariah the fourth. All these, the sons and brothers of Hosah, were thirteen.
12 Ebibinja bino eby’abagazi, omwali abakulu b’ebyalo, baalina obuvunaanyizibwa okuweereza mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, ng’Abaleevi abalala bonna.
These were distributed as porters, so that the leaders of the posts, as well as their brothers, were ministering continually in the house of the Lord.
13 Ne bakubira obululu, buli nnyumba, abato n’abakulu, ng’emiryango bwe gyali.
Then they cast lots equally, for both the small and the great, by their families, concerning each one of the gates.
14 Akalulu ak’Omulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba ne kagwa ku Seremiya. Ate akalulu ak’Omulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono, ne kagwa ku Zekkaliya mutabani we, era omuteesa ow’amagezi.
And the lot of the east fell out to Shelemiah. But to his son Zechariah, a very prudent and learned man, the northern section was obtained by lot.
15 Akalulu ak’Omulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo kagwa ku Obededomu, ate ak’eggwanika ne kagwa ku batabani be.
Truly, Obededom and his sons obtained that to the south, in the part of the house where the council of elders was.
16 Akalulu ak’Omulyango ogw’Ebugwanjuba n’Omulyango Salekesi awaali olutindo okwambuka, ne kagwa ku Suppima ne Kosa. Abakuumi baali boolekera bakuumi bannaabwe.
Shuppim and Hosah obtained that toward the west, beside the gate that leads to the way of the ascent, one post facing the other.
17 Ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba waaliyo Abaleevi mukaaga, olunaku, ne ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono waaliyo bana olunaku ne ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo waaliyo bana olunaku, ne ku ggwanika babiri babiri.
Truly, toward the east there were six Levites, and toward the north there were four per day, and then toward the south similarly there were four each day. And where the council was, there were two and two.
18 Ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba olw’oluggya waaliyo bana, ne mu Luggya lwennyini waaliyo babiri.
Also, in the cells of the porters toward the west, there were four along the way, and two at every cell.
19 Eyo ye yali engabanya ey’abagazi abaali bazzukulu ba Kola ne Merali.
These are the divisions of the porters of the sons of Kohath and of Merari.
20 Ku Baleevi, Akiya ye yali omukulu w’amawanika g’ennyumba ya Katonda, era n’amawanika g’ebintu ebyawongebwa.
Now Ahijah was over the treasuries of the house of God, and the holy vessels.
21 Bazzukulu ba Ladani, abaali bazzukulu b’Abagerusoni mu Ladani, abaali abakulu b’ennyumba za bakitaabwe nga be ba Yekyeri,
The sons of Ladan, sons of Gershon: from Ladan, leaders of the families of Ladan and of Gershon: Jehieli.
22 batabani ba Yekyeri, ne Zesamu, ne Yoweeri muganda we, be baavunaanyizibwanga amawanika ga yeekaalu ya Mukama.
The sons of Jehieli: Zetham and Joel; his brothers were over the treasuries of the house of the Lord,
23 Ku Bamulaamu, ne ku Bayizukaali, ne ku Bakebbulooni, ne ku Bawuziyeeri:
with the Amramites, and Izharites, and Hebronites, and Uzzielites.
24 Sebweri muzzukulu wa Gerusomu, mutabani wa Musa, ye yali omuwanika omukulu.
Now, Shebuel, the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was in the first place over the treasuries,
25 Baganda be okuva ku Eryeza nga be ba Lekabiya, ne Yesaya, ne Yolaamu, ne Zikuli ne Seromosi, bonna nga batabani be.
along with his brothers, Eliezer, and his son Rehabiah, and his son Jeshaiah, and his son Joram, and also his son Zichri, and his son Shelomoth.
26 Seromosi ne baganda be, be baali abawanika b’ebintu byonna ebyawongebwa Dawudi kabaka, n’abakulu b’ennyumba, n’abaali abaduumizi b’olukumi, n’abaduumizi b’ekikumi, n’abaduumizi abalala.
The same Shelomoth and his brothers were over the treasuries of the holy things, which king David sanctified, with the leaders of the families, and the tribunes, and the centurions, and the commanders of the army.
27 Ebimu ku byanyagibwa mu ntalo babiwonga, ne babiwaayo okuddaabiriza yeekaalu ya Mukama.
These things were from the wars and from the best spoils of the battles, which they had consecrated for the repair and the furnishing of the temple of the Lord.
28 Ne byonna ebyawongebwa Samwiri nnabbi, ne Sawulo mutabani wa Kiisi, ne Abuneeri mutabani wa Neeri, ne Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya byavunaanyizibwanga Seromisi n’ab’eŋŋanda ze.
Now all these things were sanctified by Samuel, the seer, and by Saul, the son of Kish, and by Abner, the son of Ner, and by Joab, the son of Zeruiah. All those who had sanctified these were under the hand of Shelomoth and his brothers.
29 Ku Bayizukaali, Kenaniya ne batabani be baaweebwa obuvunaanyizibwa ebweru wa yeekaalu, okuba abakungu era abalamuzi okufuganga Isirayiri.
Yet truly, Chenaniah and his sons were over the Izharites, for the exterior works concerning Israel, in order to teach and to judge them.
30 Ku Bakebbulooni, Kasabiya n’ab’eŋŋanda ze abasajja abazira, lukumi mu lusanvu, baavunaanyizibwanga omulimu gwonna gwa Mukama, n’okuweereza kabaka, ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba emitala wa Yoludaani mu Isirayiri.
Now from the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brothers, one thousand seven hundred very strong men, were in charge of Israel across the Jordan toward the west, in all the works of the Lord, and in the ministry of the king.
31 Mu Bakebbulooni, Yeriya ye yali omukulu, okusinziira ku byafaayo eby’okuzaalibwa okw’ennyumba zaabwe. Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi ana Dawudi nga ye kabaka, ne waba okunoonyereza mu byafaayo, era ne mulabika mu Yazeri eky’e Gireyaadi abasajja abazira ng’Abakebbulooni.
And the leader of the Hebronites was Jerijah, according to their families and kindred. In the fortieth year of the reign of David, they were numbered, and there were found very strong men in Jazer Gilead.
32 Yeriya yalina abasajja abazira era nga mitwe gy’ennyumba zaabwe, enkumi bbiri mu lusanvu, era kabaka Dawudi n’amufuula mulabirizi wa Balewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika eky’Abamanase, olwa buli kigambo kya Katonda, n’olw’ebigambo bya kabaka.
And his brothers of a mature age were two thousand seven hundred leaders of families. Then king David placed them in charge of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the one half tribe of Manasseh, in all of the ministries of God and of the king.
