1 Tantara 24
1 Zao o firimboñan’ ana’ i Aharoneo: O ana’ i Aharoneo: i Nadabe naho i Abihò, i Eleazare naho Itamare.
The work groups based on Aaron's descendants were these: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
2 Toe nihomake taolon-drae’e t’i Nadabe naho i Abihò, ie mbe tsy nisamake; aa le i Eleazare naho Itamare ty nitoloñe ho mpisoroñe,
Nadab and Abihu died before their father died. They had no children, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
3 le nitraok’ amy Tsadoke tarira’ i Eleazare naho i Akimeleke tarira’ Itamare t’i Davide nizara iareo am-pirimboñañe ty amo fitoroñañeo.
David, together with Zadok, a descendant of Eleazar, and Ahimelech, a descendant of Ithamar, divided them into groups for their work as priests.
4 Ie amy zao nimaro ty talè amo tarira’ i Eleazareo te amo tarira’ Itamareo; le zao ty nizarañe iareo: folo-eneñ’ amby ty amo talèn-anjomban-droae’eo ty ana’ i Eleazare, naho valo ty amo anjomban-droae’eo ty ana’ Itamare.
There were more leading men among Eleazar's descendants than among Ithamar's descendants, so they divided Eleazar's descendants into sixteen groups. They did this by heads of clans and by Ithamar's descendants. These divisions were eight in number, corresponding to their clans.
5 Aa le nifanjara an-kitsapake iereo, ty raike naho ty ila’e vaho songa nanañe mpiaolo amy toetse masiñey naho mpiaolo aman’ Añahare o ana’ i Eleazareo naho o ana’ Itamareo.
They divided them impartially by lot, for there were holy officials and officials of God, from both Eleazar's descendants and Ithamar's descendants.
6 I Semaià, ana’ i Netanele, nte-Levý, mpanokitse, ty nanokitse iareo añatrefa’ i mpanjakay naho o mpiaoloo naho i Tsadoke mpisoroñe naho i Akimelek’ ana’ i Abiatare naho o talèn-droaem-pisoroñeo vaho o nte-Levio; rinambe ami’ty anjomban-droae raike ty ho a i Eleazare vaho rinambe ami’ty ila’e ty ho a Itamare.
Shemaiah son of Nethanel the scribe, a Levite, wrote down their names in the presence of the king, the officials, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the leaders of the priestly and Levite families. One clan was drawn by lot from Eleazar's descendants, and then the next would be drawn from Ithamar's descendants.
