1 Chronicles 26
1 This is a list of the groups of men who guarded the temple gates: From the descendants of Korah, there was Meshelemiah, the son of Kore, who was one of the sons of Asaph.
Ary ny amin’ ny antokon’ ny mpiandry varavarana: Tamin’ ny Koraïta dia Meselemia, zanak’ i Kore, avy tamin’ ny zanak’ i Asafa.
2 The oldest son of Meshelemiah was Zechariah. His other sons were Jediael, Zebadiah, Jathniel,
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Meselemia dia Zakaria, lahimatoa, sy Jediaela, lahiaivo, sy Zebadia, fahatelo, sy Jediaela, fahefatra,
3 Elam, Jehohanan, and Eliehoenai.
sy Elama, fahadimy, sy Johanana, fahenina, sy Elihoenay, faralahy.
4 [Another guard] was Obed-Edom. His oldest son was Shemaiah. His other sons were Jehozabad, Joah, Sacar, Nethanel,
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Obed-edoma dia Semaia, lahimatoa, sy Jozabada, lahiaivo, sy Joa, fahatelo, sy Sakara, fahefatra, sy Netanela, fahadimy,
5 Ammiel, Issachar, and Peullethai. It was because God had blessed him that he had many sons.
sy Amiela, fahenina, sy Isakara, fahafito, sy Peoletahy, faralahy; fa Andriamanitra efa nitahy azy.
6 Obed-Edom’s son Shemaiah also had sons. They were leaders in their father’s family because they were capable of doing many things well.
Ary Semaia zanany niteraka zazalahy maromaro izay samy tonga mpanapaka tamin’ ny fianakavian-drainy, satria samy lehilahy mahay izy.
7 The sons of Shemaiah were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad. Shemaiah’s relatives Elihu and Semakiah were also capable men.
Ny zanakalahin’ i Semaia dia Otny sy Refaela sy Obeda ary Elzabada mbamin’ ireo rahalahiny, lehilahy mahay, dia Eliho sy Semakia.
8 All of those descendants of Obed-Edom and their sons and relatives were capable people and strong workers. Altogether there were 62 of them.
Ireo rehetra ireo no avy tamin’ ny zanak’ i Obed-edoma, dia izy sy ny zanany sy ny rahalahiny, izay samy lehilahy mahery sady matanjaka amin’ ny fanompoany; roa amby enim-polo no an’ i Obed-edoma.
9 Another guard was Meshelemiah. He and his sons and relatives were also capable people. There were 18 of them altogether.
Ary Meselemia nanan-janaka sy rahalahy valo ambin’ ny folo, samy lehilahy mahay avokoa.
10 Another guard was Hosah’s son Shimri, a descendant of Merari. Hosah appointed Shimri to be the leader, even though he was not Hosah’s oldest son.
Ary Hosa, tamin’ ny taranak’ i Merary, nanan-janakalahy, dia Simry, lohany (fa na dia tsy lahimatoa aza izy, dia izy no nataon-drainy ho lohany),
11 Hosah’s other sons were Hilkiah, Tabaliah, and Zechariah. Altogether there were 13 sons and relatives of Hosah.
sy Hilkia, lahiaivo, sy Tebalia, fahatelo, ary Zakaria, fahefatra; ny zanakalahin’ i Hosa sy ny rahalahiny rehetra dia telo ambin’ ny folo.
12 Those men were leaders of the groups of men who guarded the gates of the temple. They worked at the temple like their relatives did.
Ireo lohan’ ny tonian’ ny mpiandry varavarana ireo dia nomena anjara-raharaha niaraka tamin’ ny rahalahiny hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
13 By casting lots, the leader of each family chose one gate for their group to guard. [All of them, including] young men and old men (OR, including leaders of large families and small families), cast lots.
Ary izy ireo, na ny kely na ny lehibe, dia nanao filokana avokoa araka ny fianakaviany ny ho amin’ ny isam-bavahady.
14 Shelemiah’s group was selected to guard the East Gate. The group of Shelemiah’s son Zechariah, who was a wise counselor, was selected to guard the North Gate.
Koa ny loka tamin’ ny atsinanana dia azon’ i Selemia. Ary nanaovana filokana Zakaria zanany, mpanolo-tsaina hendry, ka ny loka tamin’ ny avaratra no azony.
15 Then Obed-Edom’s group was selected to guard the South Gate, and his sons were selected to guard the [entrances to the temple] storerooms.
An’ i Obed-edoma ny atsimo, ary an’ ny zanany ny trano firaketana.
16 Then Shuppim’s group and Hosah’s group were selected to guard the West Gate and the Shalleketh Gate on the upper road [to the temple]. The work for the guards was divided evenly.
An’ i Sopima sy Hosa ny andrefana mbamin’ ny vavahady Saleketa amin’ ny lalana miakatra; ary dia feno avokoa ny fiambenana.
17 Each day there were six descendants of Levi who guarded the East Gate, four who guarded the North Gate, four who guarded the South Gate, and two at a time who guarded the entrances to the storerooms.
Ny atsinanana nisy Levita enina, ny avaratra nisy efatra Isan’ andro, ny atsimo nisy efatra isan’ andro, ary ny trano firaketana nisy efa-dahy nizara ho roa avy.
18 At the West gate there were two men who guarded the courtyard and four who guarded the road outside the courtyard.
Tany Parbara andrefana nisy efatra amin’ ny lalana, ary roa tao Parbara.
19 Those were the groups of men who were descendants of Korah and Merari who guarded the gates [of the temple].
Dia Ireo no antokon’ ny mpiandry varavarana tamin’ ny taranak’ i Kora sy ny taranak’ i Merary.
20 Other descendants of Levi were in charge of the chests that contained the money that was dedicated to Yahweh, money that the people brought to the temple.
Ary tamin’ ny Levita dia Ahia no tonian’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ Andriamanitra sy ny zavatra nohamasinina ho rakitra.
21 [One of those men was] Ladan, a descendant of Gershon. He was the ancestor of several family groups. Jehiel was the leader of one of those family groups.
Ny taranak’ i Ladana, ilay Ladana Gersonita, ireo lohan’ ny fianakavian’ i Ladana Gersonita, dia ny Jehielita.
22 Others who had that work were Zetham and his [younger] brother Joel, who were the sons of Jehiel.
Ary ny taranaky ny Jehielita, dia Zetama sy Joela rahalahiny, no tonian’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
23 Others who did that work were descendants of Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel.
Tamin’ ny Amramita sy ny Jizarita sy ny Hebronita ary ny Ozielita
24 [From the descendants of Amram], Shubael, a descendant of Moses’s son Gershom, was the leader who was in charge of the money chests.
dia Seboela, avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Gersona, zanak’ i Mosesy, no tonian’ ny rakitra.
25 [Others who did that work were] the descendants of [Gershom’s younger brother] Eliezer. Those men were Eliezer’s son Rehabiah, Rehabiah’s son Jeshaiah, Jeshaiah’s son Joram, Joram’s son Zicri, and Zicri’s son Shelomith.
Ary ny rahalahiny avy tamin’ i Eliezera dia Rehabia, zanak’ i Eliezera, sy Jesaia, zanak’ i Rehabia, sy Jorama, zanak’ i Jesaia, sy Zikry, zanak’ i Jorama, ary Selomota, zanak’ i Zikry.
26 Shelomith and his relatives were in charge of all the valuable things that had been dedicated [to Yahweh] by King David, by the leaders of the family groups, by the army commanders of 1,000 soldiers and commanders of 100 soldiers, and by other army commanders.
Io Selomota io sy ny rahalahiny no tonian’ ny zavatra nohamasinina ho rakitra, dia Izay nohamasinin’ i Davida mpanjaka sy ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana ary ny mpifehy arivo sy ny mpifehy zato ary ny komandin’ ny miaramila.
27 Some of the things that those army officers had taken [from Israel’s enemies] in battles they dedicated for the repair of the temple of Yahweh.
Tamin’ ny babo izay azony tamin’ ny ady nisy nohamasininy ho enti-manamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
28 And Shelomith and his relatives were also in charge of everything that had been dedicated [to Yahweh] by the prophet Samuel, by King Saul, and by [David’s two army commanders] Ner and Joab.
Ary izay rehetra nohamasinin’ i Samoela mpahita sy Saoly, zanak’ i Kisy, sy Abnera, zanak’ i Nera, sy Joaba, zanak’ i Zeroia, dia izay rehetra nohamasininy, dia Selomota sy ny rahalahiny no nitahiry izany.
29 From the descendants of Izhar, Kenaniah and his sons were given work outside [the temple area]. They were officials and judges in [various places] in Israel.
Tamin’ ny Jizarita dia Kenania sy ny zanany no voatendry ho amin’ ny raharaha ivelany amin’ ny Isiraely, dia ho mpifehy sy mpitsara.
30 From the descendants of Hebron, Hashabiah and his relatives were responsible for the work done for Yahweh and for the king in all the area west of the Jordan [river]. There were 1,700 of them who were able to do their work well.
Ary tamin’ ny Hebronita dia Hasabia sy ny rahalahiny, lehilahy mahay fiton-jato amby arivo, no mpifehy tamin’ ny Isiraely tany an-dafy andrefan’ i Jordana ny amin’ ny raharaha rehetra ho an’ i Jehovah sy ny fanompoana ny mpanjaka.
31 It was written in the records of the descendants of Hebron that Jeriah was their leader. When David had been ruling for almost 40 years, they searched in those records, and they found [names of] capable men descended from Hebron who were at Jazer [city] in the Gilead [region].
Ny Hebronita dia Jeria lohany (tamin’ ny taona fahefa-polo nanjakan’ i Davida no nitadiavana ny Hebronita araka ny fianakaviany avy, ka nisy lehilahy mahay hita tao aminy tao Jazera any Gileada)
32 Jeriah had 2,700 relatives who were able to do their work well, and who were leaders of their families. King David put them in charge of governing the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and [the eastern] half of the tribe of Manasseh, to be sure that all the people did what God and the king told them to do.
sy ny rahalahiny fiton-jato amby roa arivo, samy lehilahy mahay, lohan’ ny fianakaviany avy. Ary Davida nanendry ireo ho mpifehy ny Robenita sy ny Gadita ary ny antsasaky firenen’ i Manase, ny amin’ ny raharahan’ Andriamanitra sy ny mpanjaka.
