1 Pea ko e kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai eni, naʻe ʻalu hake mo Selupepeli ko e foha ʻo Sialiteli, mo Sesua ko Selaia, mo Selemaia, mo Esela,

Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah; these [are] heads of the priests and of their brothers in the days of Jeshua.

8 Pea ko e kau Livai foki: ko Sesua, mo Pinui, mo Katimieli, mo Selepea, mo Siuta, mo Matania, ʻaia naʻe taki ki he fakafetaʻi, ʻaia mo hono ngaahi kāinga.

And the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, Mattaniah, he [is] over the thanksgiving, and his brothers,

9 Pea mo Pakipukia mo Uni, ko honau kāinga, naʻe hangatonu atu kiate kinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi lakanga.

and Bakbukiah and Unni, their brothers, [are] opposite them in charges.

10 Pea naʻe tupu ʻia Sesua ʻa Soaikimi, pea tupu foki ʻia Soaikimi ʻa Iliasipi, pea tupu ʻia Iliasipi ʻa Sihoiata.

And Jeshua has begotten Joiakim, and Joiakim has begotten Eliashib, and Eliashib has begotten Joiada,

11 Pea tupu ʻia Sihoiata ʻa Sonatani, pea tupu ʻia Sonatani ʻa Satua.

and Joiada has begotten Jonathan, and Jonathan has begotten Jaddua.

12 Pea naʻe ai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sihoiakimi, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe ngaahi mātuʻa: ʻia Selaia, ko Melaia: ʻia Selemaia, ko Hanania;

And in the days of Joiakim have been priests, heads of the fathers: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

22 Naʻe tohi ʻae kau Livai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Iliasipi, ko Sihoiata, mo Sohanani, mo Satua, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau mātuʻa: mo e kau taulaʻeiki foki, ʻo hoko mo e pule ʻa Talaiasi ko e tangata Peasia.

The Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, are written, heads of fathers, and of the priests, in the kingdom of Darius the Persian.

23 Ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Livai, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau mātuʻa, naʻe tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe toenga talanoa, ʻo hoko ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Iliasipi.

Sons of Levi, heads of the fathers, are written on the scroll of the Chronicles even until the days of Johanan son of Eliashib;

24 Pea ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau Livai: ko Hasapea, mo Selepea, mo Sesua ko e foha ʻo Katimieli, mo honau kāinga naʻe hangatonu kiate kinautolu, ke fai fakamālō, mo ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Tevita ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua, ko e hangatonu atu ʻae lakanga ki he lakanga ʻe taha.

and heads of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua son of Kadmiel, and their brothers, [are] opposite them, to give praise, to give thanks, by command of David the man of God, charge close by charge.

25 Ko e kau leʻo matapā naʻe tauhi ʻi he tulutulu ʻoe ngaahi matapā, ko Matania, mo Pakipukia, mo ʻOpataia, mo Mesulami, mo Talimoni, mo ʻAkupi.

Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, [are] gatekeepers, keeping watch in the gatherings of the gates.

26 Naʻe ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Sesua, ko e foha ʻo Sosataki, ʻakinautolu ni, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Nehemaia ko e pule, pea mo Esela ko e taulaʻeiki mo e tangata tohi.

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

27 Pea ʻi he fakatapui ʻoe ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema naʻa nau kumi ʻae kau Livai mei honau ngaahi potu kotoa pē, ke ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki Selūsalema, ke fai ʻae fakatapui ʻi he fiefia lahi, ʻi he ngaahi fakafetaʻi, mo e hiva, mo e ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi ūtete mo e ngaahi haʻape.

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

28 Pea naʻe fakakātoa ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau hiva, mei he potu fonua tafangafanga naʻe takatakai ʻi Selūsalema, pea mei he ngaahi potu kakai ʻo Nitofa;

and sons of the singers are gathered together even from the circuit around Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophathi,

29 Pea mei he fale ʻo Kilikali foki, pea mei he ngaahi ngoue ʻo Kepa mo ʻAsimaveti: he naʻe langa honau ngaahi potu ke nofo ai ʻe he kau hiva ʻo takatakai ʻi Selūsalema.

and from the house of Gilgal, and from fields of Geba and Azmaveth, the singers have built for villages for themselves around Jerusalem;

30 Pea naʻe fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai, pea fakamaʻa ʻae kakai, mo e ngaahi matapā, mo e ʻā maka.

and the priests and the Levites are cleansed, and they cleanse the people, and the gates, and the wall.

31 Pea ne u toki ʻomi ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Siuta ki ʻolunga ki he ʻā maka, pea fokotuʻu honau vāhenga lahi ʻe ua ʻonautolu ke fai fakafetaʻi, pea naʻe ʻalu honau fakataha ʻe taha ki he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe funga ʻā maka ʻo hanga atu ki he matapā tuʻunga veve:

And I bring up the heads of Judah on the wall, and appoint two great thanksgiving companies and processions. At the right, on the wall, to the Refuse Gate;

32 Pea naʻe muimui ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Hosaia, mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe houʻeiki ʻo Siuta,

and after them goes Hoshaiah, and half of the heads of Judah,

33 Mo ʻAsalia, mo Esela, mo Mesulami,

and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34 Mo Siuta, mo Penisimani, mo Simaia, mo Selemaia,

Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah;

35 Mo e niʻihi ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea; ʻio, ʻa Sakalia ko e foha ʻo Sonatani, ko e foha ʻo Simaia, ko e foha ʻo Sakuli, ko e foha ʻo ʻAsafi;

and of the sons of the priests with trumpets, Zechariah son of Jonathan, son of Shemaiah, son of Mattaniah, son of Michaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph,

36 Mo hono ngaahi kāinga, ko Simaia, mo ʻAsalili, mo Milale, mo Kilale, mo Meai, mo Netanili, mo Siuta, mo Hanani, mo e ngaahi meʻa faiva ʻa Tevita ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua, mo Esela ko e tangata tohi ʻi honau ʻao.

and his brothers Shemaiah, and Azarael, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethaneel, and Judah, Hanani, with instruments of song of David the man of God, and Ezra the scribe [is] before them;

37 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ʻi he matapā ʻoe mata vai, ʻaia naʻe hangatonu atu kiate kinautolu, ʻi he ngaahi tuʻunga ʻoe kolo ʻa Tevita, ʻi he ʻalu hake ʻoe ʻā maka, ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he fale ʻo Tevita, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he matapā vai ʻi he potu hahake.

and by the Fountain Gate and in front of them, they have gone up by the steps of the City of David, at the going up of the wall beyond the house of David, and to the Water Gate eastward.

38 Pea ko hono fakataha ʻe taha ʻokinautolu naʻe fai fakafetaʻi naʻe ʻalu ki he potu naʻe hangatonu mai kiate kinautolu, pea naʻaku muimui atu kiate kinautolu, mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe kakai ʻi he funga ʻā maka, mei he potu mamaʻo atu ʻi he fale māʻolunga ʻoe ngaahi afi tutuʻanga meʻa, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he ʻā maka laulahi;

And the second thanksgiving company that is going opposite, and I after it, and half of the people on the wall from beyond the Tower of the Furnaces and to the broad wall,

39 Pea mei he potu ki ʻolunga hake ʻi he matapā ʻo ʻIfalemi, pea mei ʻolunga ʻi he matapā motuʻa, pea ki ʻolunga ʻi he matapā ika, pea mei he fale māʻolunga ʻo Hananili, mo e fale māʻolunga ʻo Mea, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he matapā sipi: pea naʻa nau tuʻumaʻu pe ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fakapōpula.

and from beyond the Gate of Ephraim, and by the Old Gate, and by the Fish Gate, and the Tower of Hananeel, and the Tower of Meah, and to the Sheep Gate—and they have stood at the Prison Gate.

40 Pea naʻe pehē ʻae tuʻu ʻae fakataha ʻe ua naʻe fai fakafetaʻi ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, mo au pea mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe kau pule:

And the two thanksgiving companies stand in the house of God, and I and half of the prefects with me,

41 Pea ko e kau taulaʻeiki eni: ko Iliakimi, mo Maaseia, mo Miniamini, mo Mikaia, mo Ilionei, mo Sakalia, mo Hanania, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa lea;

and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Michaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, Hananiah, with trumpets,

42 Mo Maaseia, mo Simaia, mo ʻEliesa, mo Usi, mo Sihohanani, mo Malikisa, mo ʻIlami, mo Eseli. Pea naʻe hiva kalanga ʻae kau hiva, fakataha mo honau taki muʻa ko Siselahia.

and Masseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer, and the singers sound, and Jezrahiah the inspector;

43 Pea naʻa nau ʻatu foki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae ngaahi feilaulau lahi, ʻi he fiefia: he naʻe fakafiefiaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he fiefia lahi; pea naʻe fiefia ʻae ngaahi uaifi foki mo e fānau; ko ia naʻe ongo ki he mamaʻo ʻae fiefia ʻa Selūsalema.

and they sacrifice on that day great sacrifices and rejoice, for God has made them rejoice [with] great joy, and also, the women and the children have rejoiced, and the joy of Jerusalem is heard—to a distance.

44 Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻae niʻihi, ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi fale ki he ngaahi koloa, ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻatu, mo e ngaahi ʻuluaki fua, pea ki he ngaahi tāuvao, ke tānaki ki ai mei he ngaahi ngoue ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻae ngaahi ʻinasi ʻoe fono ki he kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai: he naʻe fiefia ʻa Siuta koeʻuhi ko e kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai naʻe ngāue.

And certain are appointed on that day over the chambers for treasures, for raised-offerings, for first-fruits, and for tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for priests, and for Levites, for the joy of Judah [is] over the priests, and over the Levites, who are standing up.

45 Pea ko e kau hiva mo e kau leʻo matapā naʻa nau fakatou tauhi ʻae lakanga ʻo honau ʻOtua, mo e lakanga ʻo honau fakamaʻa ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Tevita, mo Solomone ko hono foha.

And the singers and the gatekeepers keep the charge of their God, even the charge of the cleansing—according to the command of David [and] his son Solomon,

46 He naʻe ʻi ai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Tevita, mo ʻAsafi, ʻae kau takimuʻa ʻi he kau hiva, mo e ngaahi hiva ʻoe fakaongolelei mo e fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua.

for in the days of David and Asaph of old [were] heads of the singers, and a song of praise and thanksgiving to God.

47 Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Selupepeli, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Nehemaia, naʻe foaki ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi ʻinasi tokoni ki he kau hiva mo e kau leʻo matapā, taki taha ʻene tokoni ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē: pea naʻa nau vaheʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa tapu maʻae kau Livai; pea naʻe vaheʻi ia ʻe he kau Livai maʻae fānau ʻa ʻElone.

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, are giving the portions of the singers, and of the gatekeepers, the matter of a day in its day, and are sanctifying to the Levites, and the Levites are sanctifying to the sons of Aaron.
