1 Chronicles 23
1 Nígbà tí Dafidi sì dàgbà, tí ó sì di arúgbó, ó sì fi Solomoni ọmọ rẹ̀ jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli.
And David was old and satisfied with days, and he causes his son Solomon to reign over Israel,
2 Ó sì kó gbogbo àgbàgbà Israẹli jọ, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi.
and gathers all the heads of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites;
3 Àwọn ọmọ Lefi láti ọgbọ̀n ọdún tàbí jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ ni wọ́n kà àpapọ̀ iye àwọn ọkùnrin wọn sì jẹ́ ẹgbàá mọ́kàndínlógún.
and the Levites are numbered from a son of thirty years and upward, and their number, for their counted heads, is of thirty-eight thousand mighty men.
4 Dafidi sì wí pe, ní ti èyí, ẹgbàá méjìlá ni kí wọn jẹ́ alábojútó iṣẹ́ ilé fún Olúwa àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́fà ni kí ó ṣe olórí àti onídàájọ́.
Of these, twenty-four thousand [are] to preside over the work of the house of YHWH, and six thousand officers and judges,
5 Ẹgbàajì ni kí ó jẹ́ olùtọ́jú ẹnu-ọ̀nà àti ẹgbàajì ni kí o sì jẹ́ ẹni ti yóò máa yin Olúwa pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin, mo ti ṣe èyí fún ìdí pàtàkì yìí.
and four thousand gatekeepers, and four thousand giving praise to YHWH, “with instruments that I made for praising,” [says David.]
6 Dafidi sì pín àwọn ọmọ Lefi sí ẹgbẹgbẹ́ láàrín àwọn ọmọ Lefi: Gerṣoni, Kohati àti Merari.
And David distributes them into divisions of the sons of Levi—of Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7 Àwọn tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ Gerṣoni: Laadani àti Ṣimei.

And sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah; these [are] the four sons of Shimei.

And Jahath is the head, and Zizah the second, and Jeush and Beriah have not multiplied sons, and they become the house of a father by one numbering.

14 Àwọn ọmọ Mose ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ni wọ́n kà gẹ́gẹ́ bí apá kan ẹ̀yà Lefi.

These [are] sons of Levi, by the house of their fathers, heads of the fathers, by their appointments, in the number of names, by their counted heads, doing the work for the service of the house of YHWH, from a son of twenty years and upward,
25 Nítorí pé Dafidi ti sọ pé, “Níwọ̀n ìgbà tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, ti fi ìsinmi fún àwọn ènìyàn tí ó kù tí sì ń gbé Jerusalẹmu títí láéláé,

26 àwọn ọmọ Lefi kò sì tún ru àgọ́ tàbí ọ̀kankan lára àwọn ohun èlò tí wọ́n ń lò níbi ìsìn rẹ̀.”
and also of the Levites, “None [are] to carry the Dwelling Place and all its vessels for its service”;
27 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ ìkẹyìn Dafidi sí, àwọn ọmọ Lefi, wọ́n sì kà wọ́n, bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti orí àwọn ọmọ ogún ọdún tàbí jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ.
for by the last words of David they [took] the number of the sons of Levi from a son of twenty years and upward,
28 Iṣẹ́ àwọn ọmọ Lefi ni láti ran àwọn ọmọ Aaroni lọ́wọ́ nínú iṣẹ́ wọn fún ti ilé Olúwa: láti wà lábẹ́ ìkáwọ́ agbára ìlú, àti ẹ̀gbẹ́ ilé, àti ìwẹ̀nùmọ́ ti gbogbo ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ àti ṣíṣe ohun tí í ṣe iṣẹ́ ìsìn nínú ilé Olúwa.
for their station [is] at the side of the sons of Aaron, for the service of the house of YHWH, over the courts, and over the chambers, and over the cleansing of every holy thing, and the work of the service of the house of God,
29 Wọ́n sì wà ní ìkáwọ́ àkàrà tí wọ́n mú jáde láti orí tábìlì, àti ìyẹ̀fun fún ẹbọ, àti àkàrà aláìwú, àti fún púpọ̀ àti èyí tí a pòpọ̀, àti gbogbo onírúurú ìwọ̀n àti wíwọ̀n àti òsùwọ̀n.
and for the bread of the arrangement, and for fine flour for present, and for the thin unleavened cakes, and for [the work of] the pan, and for that which is stirred, and for all [liquid] measure and [solid] measure;
30 Wọ́n sì gbọdọ̀ dúró ní gbogbo òwúrọ̀ láti dúpẹ́ àti láti yin Olúwa. Wọ́n sì gbọdọ̀ ṣe irú kan náà ní àṣálẹ́.

and for all the burnt-offerings—burnt-offerings to YHWH for Sabbaths, for new moons, and for appointed times, by number, according to the ordinance on them continually, before YHWH.
32 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nígbà náà, àwọn ọmọ Lefi gbé ìgbékalẹ̀ jáde fún ìpàdé àgọ́, fún Ibi Mímọ́ àti, lábẹ́ àwọn arákùnrin àwọn ọmọ Aaroni fún ìsìn ilé Olúwa.
