1 Kroniška 23
1 Torej ko je bil David star in izpolnjen z dnevi, je nad Izraelom postavil svojega sina Salomona.
And David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
2 Ta je zbral skupaj vse Izraelove prince, z duhovniki in Lévijevci.
And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
3 Torej Lévijevci so bili prešteti od starosti tridesetih let in navzgor. Njihovo število po njihovih glavah, oseb, je bilo osemintrideset tisoč.
And the Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward; and their number, by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.
4 »Izmed katerih je bilo štiriindvajset tisoč, da vodijo delo Gospodove hiše, šest tisoč pa je bilo častnikov in sodnikov.
Of these, twenty-four thousand were to preside over the work of the house of Jehovah; and six thousand were officers and judges;
5 Poleg tega je bilo štiri tisoč vratarjev in štiri tisoč jih je hvalilo Gospoda z glasbili, ki sem jih naredil, « je rekel David, »da s temi hvalijo.«
and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised Jehovah with the instruments which I made, [said David, ] to praise [therewith].
6 David jih je razdelil v skupine med Lévijeve sinove, namreč Geršóna, Keháta in Meraríja.
And David divided them into courses according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7 Izmed Geršónovcev sta bila Ladán in Šimí.
Of the Gershonites: Laadan and Shimei.
8 Ladánovi sinovi: vodja je bil Jehiél, Zetám in Joél, trije.
The sons of Laadan: the head was Jehiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
9 Šimíjevi sinovi: Šelomít, Haziél in Harán, trije. To so bili vodje Ladánovih očetov.
The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the chief fathers of Laadan.
10 Šimíjevi sinovi so bili: Jahat, Ziná, Jeúš in Berijá. Ti štirje so bili Šimíjevi sinovi.
And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Ziza, and Jeush, and Beriah. These were the four sons of Shimei.
11 Jahat je bil vodja, Zizá pa drugi, toda Jeúš in Berijá nista imela veliko sinov, zato sta bila v enem štetju, glede na hišo svojega očeta.
And Jahath was the head, and Ziza the second; and Jeush and Beriah had not many sons: as father's house, therefore, they were reckoned as one.
12 Kehátovi sinovi: Amrám, Jichár, Hebrón in Uziél, štirje.
The sons of Kohath: Amram, Jizhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
13 Amrámova sinova: Aron in Mojzes. Aron je bil odbran, da posvečuje najsvetejše stvari, on in njegovi sinovi na veke, da zažigajo kadilo pred Gospodom, da mu služijo in da v njegovem imenu blagoslavljajo na veke.
The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. And Aaron was separated, that he should be hallowed as most holy, he and his sons for ever, to offer before Jehovah, to do service to him, and to bless in his name for ever.
14 Torej glede Mojzesa, Božjega moža, njegovi sinovi so bili imenovani po Lévijevemu rodu.
— And as to Moses the man of God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.
15 Mojzesova sinova sta bila Geršóm in Eliézer.
The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
16 Od Geršómovih sinov je bil vodja Šebuél.
The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the head.
17 Eliézerjevi sinovi so bili vodja Rehabjá. Eliézer pa ni imel nobenih drugih sinov, toda Rehabjájevih sinov je bilo zelo mnogo.
And the sons of Eliezer: Rehabiah the head; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
18 Izmed Jichárjevih sinov: vodja Šelomít.
— The sons of Jizhar: Shelomith the head.
19 Izmed Hebrónovih sinov: prvi Jerijá, drugi Amarjá, tretji Jahaziél in četrti Jekamám.
The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the head, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
20 Uziélova sinova: prvi Miha in drugi Jišijá.
The sons of Uzziel: Micah the head, and Jishijah the second.
21 Meraríjeva sinova: Mahlí in Muší. Mahlíjeva sinova: Eleazar in Kiš.
The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
22 Eleazar pa je umrl in ni imel sinov, temveč hčere in vzeli so jih njihovi bratje, Kiševi sinovi.
And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters; and their brethren the sons of Kish took them.
23 Mušíjevi sinovi: Mahlí, Eder in Jeremót, trije.
The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24 To so bili Lévijevi sinovi po hiši svojih očetov, torej vodje očetov, kakor so bili prešteti po številu imen njihovih glav, ki so opravljali delo službe Gospodove hiše, od starosti dvajsetih let in navzgor.
These were the sons of Levi according to their fathers' houses, the chief fathers, as they were reckoned, by number of names by their polls, who did the work of the service of the house of Jehovah, from twenty years old and upward.
25 Kajti David je rekel: » Gospod, Izraelov Bog, je svojemu ljudstvu dal počitek, da bi na veke lahko prebivali v Jeruzalemu,
For David said, Jehovah the God of Israel has given rest to his people, and he will dwell in Jerusalem for ever;
26 in tudi Lévijevcem; ne bodo več nosili šotorskega svetišča niti nobene njegove posode za njegovo službo.«
and the Levites also have no more to carry the tabernacle, nor any of its vessels for its service.
27 Kajti po zadnjih Davidovih besedah so bili Lévijevci prešteti od dvajsetih let starosti in naprej,
For by the last words of David was this [done], — the numbering of the sons of Levi from twenty years old and upward.
28 ker je bila njihova služba, da čakajo na Aronove sinove za službo Gospodovi hiši, na dvorih in v sobah in v očiščevanju vseh svetih stvari in delu službe Božje hiše.
For their place was by the side of the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of Jehovah, over the courts, and over the chambers, and over the purifying of all holy things, and [for] the work of the service of the house of God;
29 Tako za hleb navzočnosti kakor za fino moko, za jedilno daritev in za nekvašene kolače in za tisto, kar je spečeno na ponvi in za to, kar je ocvrto in za vse vrste mer in velikosti
and for the loaves to be set in rows, and for the fine flour for the oblation, and for the unleavened cakes, and for [what is baked in] the pan, and for that which is saturated [with oil], and for all measure of capacity and size;
30 in da vsako jutro stojijo, da se zahvaljujejo in hvalijo Gospoda in prav tako zvečer.
and to stand every morning to thank and praise Jehovah, and likewise at even;
31 In da vse žgalne daritve darujejo Gospodu na šabate, na mlaje in na določene praznike, po številu, glede na ukaz, ki jim je zapovedan, nenehno pred Gospodom,
and for all burnt-offerings offered up to Jehovah on the sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the ordinance concerning them, continually, before Jehovah;
32 in da naj se držijo zadolžitve šotorskega svetišča skupnosti in zadolžitve svetega kraja in zadolžitve Aronovih sinov, svojih bratov, v službi Gospodove hiše.
and they kept the charge of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of Jehovah.
