١ أخبار 24

١ 1 وَهَذِهِ فِرَقُ بَنِي هَارُونَ: بَنُو هَارُونَ: نَادَابُ وَأَبِيهُو، أَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ.

These were the divisions of the descendants of Aaron. The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

٢ 2 وَمَاتَ نَادَابُ وَأَبِيهُو قَبْلَ أَبِيهِمَا وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا بَنُونَ، فَكَهَنَ أَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ.

But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did, and they had no sons; so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.

٣ 3 وَقَسَمَهُمْ دَاوُدُ وَصَادُوقُ مِنْ بَنِي أَلِعَازَارَ، وَأَخِيمَالِكَ مِنْ بَنِي إِيثَامَارَ، حَسَبَ وَكَالَتِهِمْ فِي خِدْمَتِهِمْ.

With the help of Eleazar’s descendant Zadok and Ithamar’s descendant Ahimelech, David divided them according to the offices of their service.

٤ 4 وَوُجِدَ لِبَنِي أَلِعَازَارَ رُؤُوسُ رِجَالٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ بَنِي إِيثَامَارَ، فَٱنْقَسَمُوا لِبَنِي أَلِعَازَارَ رُؤُوسًا لِبَيْتِ آبَائِهِمْ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ، وَلِبَنِي إِيثَامَارَ لِبَيْتِ آبَائِهِمْ ثَمَانِيَةٌ.

Since more leaders were found among Eleazar’s descendants than those of Ithamar, they were divided accordingly. There were sixteen heads of families from the descendants of Eleazar and eight from the descendants of Ithamar.

٥ 5 وَٱنْقَسَمُوا بِٱلْقُرْعَةِ، هَؤُلَاءِ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ، لِأَنَّ رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْقُدْسِ وَرُؤَسَاءَ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ كَانُوا مِنْ بَنِي أَلِعَازَارَ وَمِنْ بَنِي إِيثَامَارَ.

Thus they were divided by lot, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God among both Eleazar’s and Ithamar’s descendants.

٦ 6 وَكَتَبَهُمْ شَمَعْيَا بْنُ نَثَنْئِيلَ ٱلْكَاتِبُ مِنَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَصَادُوقَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ وَأَخِيمَالِكَ بْنِ أَبِيَاثَارَ وَرُؤُوسِ ٱلْآبَاءِ لِلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ. فَأُخِذَ بَيْتُ أَبٍ وَاحِدٍ لِأَلِعَازَارَ، وَأُخِذَ وَاحِدٌ لِإِيثَامَارَ.

The scribe, Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, recorded their names in the presence of the king and of the officers: Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the heads of families of the priests and the Levites—one family being taken from Eleazar, and then one from Ithamar.

٧ 7 فَخَرَجَتِ ٱلْقُرْعَةُ ٱلْأُولَى لِيَهُويَارِيبَ. ٱلثَّانِيَةُ لِيَدْعِيَا.

the seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Happizzez,

١٦ 16 ٱلتَّاسِعَةَ عَشَرَةَ لِفَقَحْيَا. ٱلْعِشْرُونَ لِيَحَزْقِيئِيلَ.

the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezkel,

١٧ 17 ٱلْحَادِيَةُ وَٱلْعِشْرُونَ لِيَاكِينَ. ٱلثَّانِيةُ وَٱلْعِشْرُونَ لِجَامُولَ.

the twenty-third to Delaiah, and the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.

١٩ 19 فَهَذِهِ وَكَالَتُهُمْ وَخِدْمَتُهُمْ لِلدُّخُولِ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ حُكْمِهِمْ عَنْ يَدِ هَارُونَ أَبِيهِمْ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

This was their appointed order for service when they entered the house of the LORD, according to the regulations prescribed for them by their forefather Aaron, as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded him.

And the sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites, according to their families.

٣١ 31 وَأَلْقَوْا هُمْ أَيْضًا قُرَعًا مُقَابِلَ إِخْوَتِهِمْ بَنِي هَارُونَ أَمَامَ دَاوُدَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَصَادُوقَ وَأَخِيمَالِكَ وَرُؤُوسِ آبَاءِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ. ٱلْآبَاءُ ٱلرُّؤُوسُ كَمَا إِخْوَتِهِمِ ٱلْأَصَاغِرِ.

As their brothers the descendants of Aaron did, they also cast lots in the presence of King David and of Zadok, Ahimelech, and the heads of the families of the priests and Levites—the family heads and their younger brothers alike.
