Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These [were] the chief of the priests and of their brethren in the days of Jeshua.

8 Lewwonni immoo Yeeshuuʼaa, Binuuyii, Qadmiiʼeel, Sheereebiyaa, Yihuudaa akkasumas Mataaniyaa isa obboloota isaa wajjin faarfannaa galataatti itti gaafatamaa ture sana turan.

Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, [and] Mattaniah, [who was] over the thanksgiving, he and his brethren.

9 Obboleeyyan isaanii Baqbuqiyaa fi Unniin yeroo tajaajilaatti fuullee isaanii dhadhaabachaa turan.

Also Bakbukiah and Unni, their brethren, [were] over against them in the watches.

10 Iyyaasuun abbaa Yooyaaqiim; Yooyaaqiim abbaa Eliyaashiib; Eliyaashiib abbaa Yooyaadaa ti;

And Jeshua begat Joiakim, Joiakim also begat Eliashib, and Eliashib begat Joiada,

11 Yooyaadaan abbaa Yoonaataan; Yoonaataan abbaa Yaaduʼaa ti.

And Joiada begat Jonathan, and Jonathan begat Jaddua.

12 Isaan kunneen bara Yooyaaqiim keessa abbootii maatiiwwan lubootaa turan: Maatii Seraayaa keessaa Meraayaa; maatii Ermiyaas keessaa Hanaaniyaa;

And in the days of Joiakim were priests, the chief of the fathers: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, [were] recorded chief of the fathers: also the priests, to the reign of Darius the Persian.

23 Lewwonni warri abbootii maatii turan hamma bara Yoohaanaan ilma Eliyaashiibitti kitaaba seenaa keessatti galmeeffaman.

The sons of Levi, the chief of the fathers, [were] written in the book of the chronicles, even till the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.

24 Hangafoonni Lewwotaas Hashabiyaa, Sheereebiyaa, Yeeshuʼaa ilma Qadmiiʼeel akkasumas obboloota isaanii warra akkuma Daawit namni Waaqaa sun ajajetti faarfannaa fi galata dhiʼeessuudhaaf fuullee isaanii dhaabatanii gareen tokko garee kaan jalaa qabu sana turan.

And the chief of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise [and] to give thanks according to the commandment of David the man of God, ward over against ward.

25 Mataaniyaan, Baqbuqiyaan, Obaadiyaan, Meshulaam, Talmoonii fi Aquub mankuusaalee karrawwan bira jiran eegu turan.

Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, [were] porters keeping the ward at the threshholds of the gates.

26 Isaanis bara Yooyaaqiim ilma Iyyaasuu, ilma Yoozaadaaq keessa, bara Nahimiyaa bulchaa biyyaatii fi bara Izraa lubicha barreessaa sanaa keessa tajaajilaa turan.

These [were] in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest, the scribe.

27 Yeroo eebba dallaa Yerusaalemitti Lewwonni akka faarfannaa galataatiin, kililleedhaan, baganaa fi kiraaraan ayyaana eebbaa sana gammachuun ayyaaneffataniif iddoo jiraatan hundaa barbaadamanii gara Yerusaalem fidaman.

And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, [with] cymbals, psalteries, and with harps.

28 Faarfattoonnis biyya naannoo Yerusaalem jechuunis gandoota Netoofotaatii,

And the sons of the singers assembled, both out of the plain country around Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophathi;

29 Beet Gilgaalii, naannoo Gebaatii fi Azmaawetitti walitti fidaman; faarfattoonni naannoo Yerusaalemitti gandoota ofii isaanii ijaarratanii turaniitii.

Also from the house of Gilgal, and from the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had built them villages around Jerusalem.

30 Luboonnii fi Lewwonnis erga akka seeraatti of qulqulleessanii booddee saba, karrawwanii fi dallaa sana qulqulleessan.

And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.

31 Anis akka hooggantoonni Yihuudaa dallaatti ol baʼan nan godhe. Akkasumas akka isaan galata dhiʼeessaniif tuuta faarfattootaa lama nan ramade. Tuunni tokko karaa mirgaatiin dallaa irraan gara Karra Dikee dhaqe.

Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two great [companies of them that gave] thanks, [of which one] went on the right hand upon the wall towards the dung-gate:

32 Hooshaʼiyaa fi hooggantoota Yihuudaa keessaa walakkaan,

And after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah,

33 Azaariyaa, Izraa, Meshulaam,

And Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34 Yihuudaa, Beniyaam, Shemaaʼiyaa fi Ermiyaas wajjin isaan duukaa buʼan;

Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,

35 akkasumas luboonni malakata qabatan tokko tokkoo fi Zakkaariyaas ilmi Yoonaataan, ilmi Shemaaʼiyaa, ilmi Mataaniyaa, Miikaayaa, ilmi Zakuur, ilmi Asaaf isaan duukaa buʼan;

And [certain] of the priests' sons with trumpets; [namely], Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Michaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph:

36 amma illee obboloota isaa jechuunis Shemaaʼiyaan, Azariʼeel, Miilaalaayi, Gilaalayi, Maaʼayi, Naatnaaʼel, Yihuudaa fi Hanaaniim akkuma Daawit namni Waaqaa sun ajajetti meeshaa faarfannaa fudhatanii dhaqan. Izraan barreessaan sun immoo isaan hoogganaa ture.

And his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarael, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethaneel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God, and Ezra the scribe before them.

37 Isaanis Karra Burqaa biraa kaʼanii gulantaawwan Magaalaa Daawit iddoo dallaan ittiin ol kaʼu sanaan mana Daawit irraan qajeelanii gara Karra Bishaanii kan gama baʼa biiftuutti ol baʼan.

And at the fountain-gate, which was over against them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the water-gate eastward.

38 Tuunni faarfattootaa lammaffaan immoo gara bitaatti qajeele. Anis gartokkee sabaa wajjin dallaa gubbaadhaan gara Gamoo ol dheeraa Iddoo Ibiddaatii fi Dallaa Balʼaatti isaan duukaa buʼe;

And the other [company of them that gave] thanks went over against [them], and I after them, and the half of the people upon the wall, from beyond the tower of the furnaces even to the broad wall;

39 akkasumas ani Karra Efreem irraan, karaa Karra Moofaa, karaa Karra Qurxummii, karaa Gamoo ol dheeraa Hanaaniʼeelii fi Karaa Gamoo ol dheeraa Dhibbaatiin hamma Karra Hoolotaatti isaan duukaa nan buʼe. Isaanis Karra Eegdotaa bira gaʼanii dhaabatan.

And from above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old gate, and above the fish-gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Meah, even to the sheep-gate: and they stood still in the prison-gate.

40 Tuunni faarfattootaa kan galata dhiʼeesse sun lachuu mana Waaqaa keessatti iddoo isaa qabate; anis qondaaltota gartokko wajjin iddoo nan qabadhe;

So stood the two [companies of them that gave] thanks in the house of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me:

41 amma illee luboonni jechuunis Eliiyaaqiim, Maʼaseyaan, Miiniyaamiin, Miikaayaan, Eliiyooʼeenayin, Zakkaariyaasii fi Hanaaniyaan malakata isaanii qabatanii

And the priests; Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Michaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, [and] Hananiah, with trumpets;

42 Maʼaseyaan, Shemaaʼiyaan, Eleʼaazaar, Ooziin, Yehohaanaaniin, Malkiyaan, Eelaamii fi Eezer iddoo iddoo isaanii qabatan. Faarfattoonni immoo Yizrahiyaadhaan qajeelfamanii faarfatan.

And Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah [their] overseer.

43 Isaanis sababii Waaqni gammachuu guddaa isaaniif kenneef gaafas gammadaa aarsaa guddaa dhiʼeessan. Dubartoonnii fi ijoolleenis ni gammadan. Sagaleen gammachuu Yerusaalem keessaas fagootti dhagaʼame.

Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced: for God had made them rejoice with great joy: the wives also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

44 Yeroo sanatti namoonni mankuusaalee gumaachi, mataan midhaaniitii fi kennaan harka kudhan keessaa tokkoo itti galfamu irratti itti gaafatamtoota taʼanii muudaman. Isaanis lafa qotiisaa naannoo magaalaawwanitti argaman irraa qooda Seerri lubootaa fi Lewwotaaf ajaju sana fidanii mankuusaaleetti galchan; Yihuudaan lubootaa fi Lewwota tajaajilanitti gammadee tureetii.

And at that time were some appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the offerings, for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that waited.

45 Isaanis tajaajila Waaqa isaaniitii fi tajaajila sirna qulqullessuu sana akkuma faarfattoonnii fi eegdonni karraa godhan sana akkuma Daawitii fi ilmi isaa Solomoon ajajanitti raawwatan.

And both the singers and the porters kept the ward of their God, and the ward of the purification, according to the commandment of David, [and] of Solomon his son.

46 Jabana durii bara Daawitii fi Asaaf keessa qajeelchitoota faarfattootaa, kan faarfannaa Waaqa leellisuutii fi kan Waaqa galateeffachuutu tureetii.

For in the days of David, and Asaph of old [there were] chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.

47 Kanaafuu bara Zarubaabelii fi bara Nahimiyaa keessa Israaʼeloonni hundi qooda guyyuma guyyaadhaan faarfattootaa fi karra eegdotaaf barbaachisu kennan. Akkasumas Lewwota kaaniif qooda isaanii kophaatti baasan; Lewwonnis qooda sanyiiwwan Aroon kophaatti baasan.

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, every day his portion: and they sanctified [holy things] to the Levites; and the Levites sanctified [them] to the children of Aaron.
