And Jesus begot Joakim, and Joakim begot Eliasib, and Eliasib [begot] Jodae,
11 Joyada ne wuon Jonathan, to Jonathan ne wuon Jadua.

22 Jotend miech jo-Lawi e ndalo mar Eliashib; Joyada, Johanan kod Jadua, kaachiel gi joma ne jodolo, nondik nying-gi e kinde loch mar Darius ruodh Pasia.
The Levites in the days of Eliasib, Joada, and Joa, and Joanan, and Idua, [were] recorded heads of families: also the priests, in the reign of Darius the Persian.
23 Jotend mier mane ni e dier nyikwa Lawi nyaka e ndalo mar Johanan wuod Eliashib nondik nying-gi e kitap weche mag ndalo.
And the sons of Levi, heads of families, [were] written in the book of the chronicles, even to the days of Joanan son of Elisue.
24 To jotend jo-Lawi ne gin: Hashabia, Sherebia, Jeshua wuod Kadmiel, kod jotich kaachiel kodgi, mane ochungʼ ka ngʼiyore ka gipako Nyasaye kendo gidwokone erokamano ka jomoko omo wer to jomoko olo mana kaka Daudi ngʼat Nyasaye nondiko.
And the heads of the Levites [were] Asabia, and Sarabia, and Jesu: and the sons of Cadmiel, and their brethren over against them, were to sing hymns of praise, according to the commandment of David the man of God, course by course.
25 Matania, Bakbukia, Obadia, Meshulam, Talmon kod Akub ne gin jorit dhorangeye ma bende ne ngʼiyo kuonde keno man yo rangach.
When I gathered the porters,
26 Negitiyo e ndalo Joyakim wuod Jeshua, wuod Jozadak, to kendo e ndalo jatelo Nehemia kod Ezra ma jadolo kendo jandiko.
[it was] in the days of Joakim son of Jesus, son of Josedec, and in the days of Neemia: and Esdras the priest [was] scribe.
27 E sa mane igwedho ohinga mar Jerusalem, jo-Lawi nowal oa kama negidakie mine okelgi Jerusalem mondo gitim nyasi gi mor mogundho gi wende mag erokamano kendo ka gigoyo ongengʼo, nyatiti kod orutu.
And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites in their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep a feast of dedication and gladness with thanksgiving, and they sounded cymbals with songs, and [had] psalteries and harps.
28 Jower bende nokel kanyakla koa e gwenge machiegni gi Jerusalem kaka miech jo-Netofath,
And the sons of the singers were assembled both from the neighbourhood round about to Jerusalem, and from the villages,
29 Beth Gilgal, kod e gwengʼ Geba gi Azmaveth, nimar jower nosegero miechgi giwegi machiegni gi Jerusalem.
and from the country: for the singers built themselves villages by Jerusalem.
30 Ka jodolo gi jo-Lawi nosepwodhore maler kaka chik dwaro, ne gipwodho ji, dhorangeye, to gi ohinga.
And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and they purified the people, and the porters, and the wall.
31 Ne akelo jotend Juda nyaka ewi ohinga. Bende ne ayiero migepe ariyo madongo mag jower mondo odwok erokamano ni Nyasaye. Achiel kuomgi ne ochungʼ ewi ohinga korachwich, kochiko kama iluongo ni Dhoranga Owuoyo.
And they brought up the princes of Juda on the wall, and they appointed two great [companies] for thanksgiving, and they passed on the right hand on the wall of the dung-gate.
32 Hoshaya kod nus mar jotend Juda noluwogi,
And after them went Osaia, and half the princes of Juda,
33 kaachiel gi Azaria, Ezra, Meshulam,
and Azarias, and Esdras, and Mesollam,
34 Juda, Benjamin, Shemaya, Jeremia,
and Juda, and Benjamin, and Samaias and Jeremia.
35 kaachiel gi jodolo moko man-gi turumbete, kod Zekaria wuod Jonathan, wuod Shemaya, wuod Matania, wuod Mikaya, wuod Zakur, wuod Asaf,
And [some] of the sons of the priest with trumpets, Zacharias son of Jonathan, son of Samaias, son of Matthania, son of Michaia, son of Zacchur, son of Asaph:
36 kod jotich kaachiel kode kaka: Shemaya, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Juda kod Hanani ka gin-gi thumbe migoyo mane olos gi Daudi ka giluwo kor ohinga mi gikadho ewi od Daudi ngʼat Nyasaye. Ezra ma jandiko notelonegi.
and his brethren, Samaia, and Oziel, Gelol, Jama, Aia, Nathanael, and Juda, Anani, to praise with the hymns of David the man of God; and Esdras the scribe [was] before them,
37 E Ranga Soko negidhi nyime wangʼ achiel ka giidho raidhi mar Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi ka giluwo kor ohinga mi gikadho ewi od Daudi nyaka e Dhoranga Pi mantiere yo wuok chiengʼ.
at the gate, to praise before them, and they went up by the steps of the city of David, in the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the water-gate
38 Migawo mar jower mar ariyo nowuotho kochiko komachielo. Ne aluwogi nyaka ewi ohinga malo, kaachiel gi nus mar ji ka gikalo kama Oger Motingʼore gi Malo mar Kendo mag Mach nyaka e Ohinga Malach,
39 negikadho Ranga Efraim, Ranga Jeshana, Ranga Rech, Kama Otingʼore gi Malo mar Hananel kod Kama Otingʼore gi Malo ma Mia Achiel nyaka ochopo Ranga Rombe. Negichungo e Ranga Od jarito.
of Ephraim, and to the fish-gate, and by the tower of Anameel, and as far as the sheep-gate.
40 Bangʼ ka migepe ariyo mar jowergo nosedwoko erokamano ni Nyasaye; negikawo keregi e od Nyasaye, eka an bende kamano kaachiel gi nus mar jotelo,
41 gi jodolo kaka, Eliakim, Maseya, Miniamin, Mikaya, Elioenai, Zekaria gi Hanania ka gin kod turumbete mag-gi.
42 Bende ne nitiere Maseya, Shemaya, Eliazar, Uzi, Jehohanan, Malkija, Elam kod Ezer. Jower nower kotelnegi gi Jezrahia.
And the singers were heard, and were numbered.
43 To e odiechiengno negichiwo misango maduongʼ ka gimor nikech Nyasaye ne osemiyogi mor maduongʼ. Mon kod nyithindo bende ne mor. Koko mar mor mane ni e Jerusalem ne inyalo winjo gi kuma bor.
And in that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced; for God had made them very joyful: and their wives and their children rejoiced: and the joy in Jerusalem was heard from afar off.
44 E sechego ji noyier mondo orit kuonde keno mag chiwruok, olembe mokwongo kod achiel kuom apar. Ne puothe machiegni gi mier matindo, negikelo e od keno bath gigo midwaro kuom Chik ne jodolo kod jo-Lawi, nimar Juda ne mor gi puonj mar jodolo gi jo-Lawi.
And in that day they appointed men over the treasuries, for the treasures, the first-fruits, and the tithes, and [for] the chiefs of the cities who were assembled among them, [to furnish] portions for the priests and Levites: for [there was] joy in Juda over the priests and over the Levites that waited.
45 Negitiyo tich Nyasachgi kod tich mar pwodhruok, mana kaka jower gi jorit Rangeye notimo, kaluwore gi chike mag Daudi kod wuode Solomon.
And they kept the charges of their God, and the charges of the purification, and [ordered] the singers and the porters, according to the commandments of David and his son Solomon.
46 E ndalo mar Daudi kod Asaf ema ne telone wende mag pak kod mag goyo erokamano ni Nyasaye nochakore.
For in the days of David Asaph was originally first of the singers, and [they sang] hymns and praise to God.
47 Kendo e ndalo Zerubabel gi Nehemia, jo-Israel duto nochako kelo pok mapile pile ni jower kod jorit dhorangeye. Bende negiketo tenge pok ni jo-Lawi mamoko, to jo-Lawi bende nomiyo nyikwa Harun pokgi.
And all Israel in the days of Zorobabel, and in the days of Neemias, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, a daily rate: and consecrated them to the Levites: and the Levites consecrated them to the sons of Aaron.
