Taariikhdii Kowaad 23
1 Haddaba Daa'uud wuu gaboobay, wuuna da' weynaa, markaasuu reer binu Israa'iil boqor uga dhigay wiilkiisii Sulaymaan.
Then David, being old and full of days, appointed his son Solomon as king over Israel.
2 Oo wuxuu soo wada ururiyey amiirradii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawiba.
And he gathered together all the leaders of Israel, with the priests as well as the Levites.
3 Markaasaa la tiriyey reer Laawi intoodii soddon sannadood jirtay ama ka sii weynayd, oo markii nin nin loo tiriyey, dhammaantood tiradoodii waxay noqotay siddeed iyo soddon kun oo nin.
And the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward. And there were found thirty-eight thousand men.
4 Oo kuwaas afar iyo labaatan kun oo ka mid ahu waxay ahaayeen kuwo ilaaliya hawsha guriga Rabbiga, oo lix kunna waxay ahaayeen saraakiil iyo xaakinno,
Of these, twenty-four thousand were chosen and distributed to the ministry of the house of the Lord. Then six thousand were overseers and judges.
5 oo afar kunna waxay ahaayeen iridjoogayaal, oo afar kunna waxay Rabbiga ku ammaani jireen alaabtii aan u sameeyey in isaga lagu ammaano ayuu Daa'uud yidhi.
Moreover, four thousand were porters. And the same number were the singers of psalms to the Lord, with the musical instruments which he had made for the music.
6 Oo Daa'uud wuxuu iyagii u kala qaybiyey koox koox sidii ay ahaayeen wiilashii Laawi, kuwaas oo ahaa: Gershoon, iyo Qohaad, iyo Meraarii.
And David distributed them into courses according to the sons of Levi, specifically, Gershom, and Kohath, and Merari.
7 Reer Gershoon waxaa ahaa Lacdaan iyo Shimcii.
The sons of Gershom: Ladan and Shimei.
8 Wiilashii Lacdaan waxay ahaayeen saddex, waana Yexii'eel oo madax ahaa, iyo Seetaam, iyo Yoo'eel.
The sons of Ladan: the leader Jahiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
9 Wiilashii Shimciina waxay ahaayeen saddex, waana Shelomood, iyo Xasii'eel, iyo Xaaraan, kuwaasu waxay ahaayeen madaxdii qolooyinkii reer Lacdaan.
The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the leaders of the families of Ladan.
10 Oo waxaa wiilashii Shimcii ahaa Yaaxad, iyo Siinaa, iyo Yecuush, iyo Beriicaah. Afartaasuba waxay ahaayeen wiilashii Shimcii.
Then the sons of Shimei: Jahath, and Zizah, and Jeush, and Beriah. These were the sons of Shimei, four.
11 Oo waxaa madax ahaa Yaaxad, Siisaahna wuxuu ahaa kii labaad, laakiinse Yecuush iyo Beriicaah wiilal badan ma ay lahayn, oo sidaas daraaddeed iyaga waxaa loo tiriyey isku reer.
Now Jahath was first, Zizah second, but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, and for this reason they were reckoned as one family and one house.
12 Wiilashii Qohaadna waxay ahaayeen afar, waana Camraam, iyo Isehaar, iyo Xebroon iyo Cusii'eel.
The sons of Kohath: Amram and Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel, four.
13 Wiilashii Camraamna waxay ahaayeen Haaruun iyo Muuse, oo Haaruun waxaa gooni looga dhigay inay isagii iyo wiilashiisuba weligood quduus ka dhigaan waxyaalaha ugu wada quduusan iyo inay Rabbiga hortiisa foox ku shidaan, oo ay u adeegaan oo ay weligoodba magiciisa ku duceeyaan.
The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. Now Aaron was separated so that he might minister in the Holy of Holies, he and his sons forever, and so that he might burn incense to the Lord, according to his rite, and so that he might bless his name in perpetuity.
14 Laakiinse Muuse oo ahaa nin Ilaah wiilashiisii waxaa lagu tiriyey qabiilka reer Laawi.
The sons of Moses, the man of God, were also numbered in the tribe of Levi.
15 Wiilashii Muusena waxay ahaayeen Gershoom iyo Eliiceser.
The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
16 Ina Gershoomna wuxuu ahaa Shebuu'eel oo madax ahaa.
The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the first.
17 Ina Eliiceserna wuxuu ahaa Rexabyaah oo madax ahaa. Oo Eliiceser innaba wiilal kale ma lahayn, laakiinse Rexabyaah wiilashiisu aad bay u badnaayeen.
Now the sons of Eliezer were Rehabiah the first. And there were no other sons for Eliezer. But the sons of Rehabiah were multiplied exceedingly.
18 Ina Isehaarna wuxuu ahaa Shelomiid oo madax ahaa.
The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the first.
19 Wiilashii Xebroonna waxay ahaayeen Yeriyaah oo madax ahaa, iyo Amaryaah oo ahaa kii labaad, iyo Yaxasii'eel oo ahaa kii saddexaad, iyo Yeqamcaam oo ahaa kii afraad.
The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, Jekameam the fourth.
20 Wiilashii Cusii'eelna waxay ahaayeen Miikaah oo madax ahaa, iyo Yishiyaah oo ahaa kii labaad.
The sons of Uzziel: Micah the first, Isshiah the second.
21 Wiilashii Meraariina waxay ahaayeen Maxlii iyo Mushii. Wiilashii Maxliina waxay ahaayeen Elecaasaar iyo Qiish.
The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
22 Oo Elecaasaarna wuxuu dhintay isagoo gabdho keliya mooyaane aan wiilal lahayn, oo waxaa gabdhihiisii guursaday reer Qiish oo ahaa ilma-adeerradood.
Then Eleazar died, and had no sons, but only daughters. And so the sons of Kish, their brothers, married them.
23 Wiilashii Mushiina waxay ahaayeen saddex, waana Maxlii iyo Ceeder iyo Yereemood.
The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24 Kuwaasu waxay ahaayeen reer Laawi sidii qolooyinkoodu kala ahaayeen, waana kuwii ahaa madaxdii reeraha kuwii la tiriyey, oo magacyadooda nin nin loo tiriyey, kuwaasoo samayn jiray shuqulkii hawsha guriga Rabbiga, waana intii labaatan sannadood jirtay ama ka sii weynayd.
These are the sons of Levi, in their kindred and families, leaders in turns, and the number of each of the heads who were doing the works of the ministry of the house of the Lord, from twenty years of age and upward.
25 Waayo, Daa'uud wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil dadkiisuu nasiyey, oo weligiis wuxuu deggan yahay Yeruusaalem.
For David said: “The Lord, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people, and a habitation in Jerusalem even unto eternity.
26 Weliba reer Laawina mar dambe uma baahan doonaan inay qaadaan taambuugga iyo weelashiisa lagaga adeego oo dhan.
Neither shall it be the office of the Levites any more to carry the tabernacle with all its equipment for use in the ministry.”
27 Oo Daa'uud dardaarankiisii ayaa reer Laawi lagu tiriyey, intoodii labaatan sannadood jirtay ama ka sii weynayd.
Also, according to the last precepts of David, the sons of Levi shall be counted by number from twenty years of age and upward.
28 Waayo, shuqulkoodu wuxuu ahaa inay reer Haaruun amarkooda ku adeegaan oo ay qabtaan hawshii guriga Rabbiga, iyo inay ka adeegaan barxadaha iyo qowladaha, iyo inay daahiriyaan waxyaalaha quduuska ah oo dhan, kaasu wuxuu ahaa shuqulka hawsha guriga Rabbiga.
And they shall be under the hand of the sons of Aaron, in the care of the house of the Lord, in the vestibule, and in the chambers, and in the place of purification, and in the sanctuary, and in all the works of the ministry of the temple of the Lord.
29 Oo weliba waxay kala hagaajin jireen kibistii tusniinta iyo burkii laga dhigi jiray qurbaan jidhiidh ah, hadduu ahaa kibis aan khamiir lahayn ama tii digsiga lagu dubi jiray, amase tii la qoyn jiray, iyo cayn kasta oo ah qiyaas iyo miisaan,
But the priests shall be over the bread of the presence, and the sacrifice of fine wheat flour, and the unleavened cakes, and the frying pan, and the roasting, and over every weight and measure.
30 iyo inay subax kasta u istaagaan inay Rabbiga ku mahadnaqaan oo ammaanaan, oo haddana habeenkiina saasoo kalay yeeli jireen.
Yet truly, the Levites shall stand to confess and to sing to the Lord, in the morning, and similarly in the evening,
31 Oo haddana waxay had iyo goor Rabbiga hortiisa ku bixin jireen qurbaanno la gubo oo dhan, waxayna bixin jireen sabtiyada, iyo markay bilaha cusubu dhashaan, iyo iidaha, waxayna u bixin jireen si waafaqsan tiradoodii qaynuunka ku qornayd,
as much in the oblation of the holocausts of the Lord, as in the Sabbaths and new moons and other solemnities, according to the number and ceremonies for each and every matter, perpetually before the Lord.
32 wayna ilaalin jireen teendhada shirka, iyo meesha quduuska ah, iyo reer Haaruun oo iyaga walaalahood ah, oo saasay uga adeegi jireen guriga Rabbiga.
And let them keep the observances of the tabernacle of the covenant, and the rituals of the sanctuary, and the observance of the sons of Aaron, their brothers, so that they may minister in the house of the Lord.
