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 Ilmaan Asaaf keessaa: Zakuur, Yoosef, Naataaniyaa fi Asareelaa. Ilmaan Asaaf qajeelcha Asaaf jala turan. Asaaf immoo qajeelcha mootichaa jalatti raajii dubbachaa ture.
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.
3 Ilmaan Yeduutuun keessaa: Gedaaliyaas, Zerii, Isaayyaas, Sameeʼi, Hashabiyaa fi Matiitiyaa. Isaan kunneen jaʼan qajeelcha abbaa isaanii Yeduutuun isa kiraaraan Waaqayyo galateeffachaa fi jajachaa raajii dubbachaa ture sanaa jala turan.
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.
4 Ilmaan Heemaan keessaa: Bukiyaa, Mataaniyaa, Uziiʼeel, Shebuuʼeelii fi Yeriimooti; Hanaaniyaa, Hanaanii, Eliiʼaataa, Gidaltii fi Roomaamti-Ezer; Yoshibqaashaa, Malootii, Hootiirii fi Mahaaziyoo ti.
From the sons of Heman, who was one of the king’s prophets, they chose Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shubael, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamti-Ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth.
5 Isaan kunneen hundi ilmaan Heemaan namicha mootichaaf mulʼata argu sanaa turan. Isaan akka isa kabajaniif akkuma Waaqni abdachiise sanatti isaa ni kennaman. Waaqnis ilmaan kudha afurii fi intallan sadii Heemaaniif ni kenne.
God promised to cause Heman to be strong, so altogether, God have him 14 sons and three daughters.
6 Namoonni kunneen hundi tajaajila mana Waaqaa keessatti faarfannaa kililleedhaan, kiraaraa fi baganaadhaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti faarfatamu sanaaf qajeelcha abbootii isaanii jala turan. Asaaf, Yeduutuunii fi Heemaan immoo qajeelcha mootichaa jala turan.
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 Isaanii fi firoonni isaanii kanneen hundi isaanii faarfannaa Waaqayyoof faarfatamuun leenjifamanii ogummaa qaban walumaa galatti 288 turan.
Those men and their relatives were all trained and skilled for playing musical instruments in the temple. That was their work for Yahweh. Including their relatives, there were 288 of them.
8 Jarris ramaddii isaanii beekuudhaaf xinnaa fi guddaan, barsiisaa fi barataan haaluma wal fakkaatuun ixaa buufatan.
