13 Walirusha kura, wadogo kwa wakubwa, kulingana na familia zao, kwa kila lango.
And the families were taken by the decision of the Lord for every door; the small family had the same chance as the great.
14 Kura ilipo rushwa kwa lango la mashariki, ilimuangukia Shelemia. Kisha wakarusha kura kwa Zekaria mwana wake, mshauri makini, na kura yake ikatokea lango la kaskazini.
And the care of the door on the east came out for Shelemiah. Then the name of Zechariah his son, a man wise in discussion, came out, and the door on the north was given to him.
