1 इतिहास 25
1 १ दावीद आणि निवासमंडपाच्या अधिकाऱ्यांनी मिळून आसाफाच्या मुलांना एका खास कामासाठी निवडले. हेमान व यदूथून ही ती अपत्ये. वीणा, सतारी आणि झांजा ही वाद्ये, वाजवून देवाचा संदेश देणे असे त्यांच्या कामाचे स्वरूप होते. हे काम करणाऱ्या लोकांची यादी:
Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:
2 २ आसाफाच्या वंशातले: जक्कूर, योसेफ, नथन्या आणि अशेराला, हे आसाफाचे पुत्र राज्याच्या देखरेखीखाली आसाफाच्या मार्गदर्शनाखाली संदेश देत होते.
Of the sons of Asaph; Zaccur, and Joseph, and Nethaniah, and Asarelah, the sons of Asaph under the hands of Asaph, which prophesied according to the order of the king.
3 ३ यदूथूनाचे वंशज: गदल्या, सारी, यशया, हशब्या व मत्तिथ्या हे सहाजण, आपला पिता यदूथून याच्या मार्गदर्शनाखाली वीणा वाजवून परमेश्वराचे उपकारस्मरण आणि स्तवन करून संदेश देत असे.
Of Jeduthun: the sons of Jeduthun; Gedaliah, and Zeri, and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp, to give thanks and to praise Yhwh.
4 ४ हेमानाचे वंशज: बुक्कीया, मत्तन्या, उज्जियेल, शबुएल, यरीमोथ, हनन्या, हनानी, अलियाथा, गिद्दल्ती, रोममती-एजेर, याश्बकाशा, मल्लोथी, होथीर आणि महजियोथ.

5 ५ हेमान हा राजाचा संदेष्टा होता, हे सर्व हेमानाचे पुत्र शिंग वाजवायला होते. देवाने हेमानाला चौदा मुले आणि तीन मुली देऊन सन्मानीत केले.
All these were the sons of Heman the king’s seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
6 ६ हे सर्व आपल्या पित्याच्या मार्गदर्शनाखाली परमेश्वराच्या घरात ही अपत्ये झांजा, सतारी आणि वीणा वाजवून गीते गाण्यासाठी आणि देवाच्या घरातील सेवेसाठी होते. आसाफ, यदूथून व हेमान हे राजाच्या देखरेखीखाली होती.
All these were under the hands of their father for song in the house of Yhwh, with cymbals, psalteries, and harps, for the service of the house of God, according to the king’s order to Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman.
7 ७ ते आणि त्यांचे नातेवाईक गायनकलेत पारंगत व परमेश्वरासाठी गायनाचे प्रशिक्षण घेतलेले दोनशे अठ्याऐशींजण होते.
So the number of them, with their brethren that were instructed in the songs of Yhwh, even all that were cunning, was two hundred fourscore and eight.
8 ८ त्यांनी लहानथोर, गुरु-शिष्य सर्वानी आपल्या कामासाठी सारख्याच चिठ्ठ्या टाकल्या व कामे वाटून घेतली.
And they cast lots, ward against ward, as well the small as the great, the teacher as the scholar.
9 ९ तेव्हा आसाफाच्या मुलांच्या संबंधीत: पहिली चिठ्ठी योसेफाची निघाली; दुसरी गदल्याची त्याची अपत्ये आणि भाऊबंद यांच्यातून बाराजणांना घेतले.
