1 Chronicles 9
1 The [names of all the] people of Israel were listed/written with the names of their clans, and that information was written in the scroll/book named ‘The Record of the Kings of Israel’. [Many of] the people of Judah were captured and forced to go to Babylon. That happened because they did not faithfully [do what was pleasing to] God.
Dia nisaina araka ny firazanany avy ny Isiraely rehetra; ary, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izany. Ary ny Joda dia nentina ho babo tany Babylona noho ny fahotany.
2 The first people who returned [to Judah 70 years later] and lived in their own land and in their own cities and towns were some Israeli priests, other descendants of Levi, and men who worked in the temple.
Ary ny mponina taloha tamin’ ny taniny sy ny tanànany avy dia ny Isiraely sy ny mpisorona sy ny Levita ary ny Netinima.
3 [Other] people from the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh [also returned to Judah and] lived in Jerusalem. This is a list of those people [of the tribe of Judah]:

ary ny isan’ ny rahalahiny araka ny firazanany dia enina amby dimam-polo sy sivin-jato. Ireo lehilahy rehetra ireo dia samy lohan’ ny fianakaviany avy.

13 Altogether there were 1,760 priests [who returned to Judah]. They were leaders of their clans, and they all were responsible for doing work in the temple of God.
Ary ny rahalahin’ ireo, izay samy lohan’ ny fianakaviany avy, dia enim-polo amby fiton-jato amby arivo; lehilahy mahery amin’ ny fanaovana ny fanompoana ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra ireo.
14 From the descendants of Levi [who returned to Judah] there was Shemaiah the son of Hasshub. Hasshub was the son of Azrikam; Azrikam was the son of Hashabiah; Hashabiah was a descendant of [Levi’s youngest son] Merari.
Ary tamin’ ny Levita dia Semaia, zanak’ i Hasoba, zanak’ i Azrikama, zanak’ i Hasabia, tamin’ ny taranak’ i Merary,
15 [Other descendants of Levi who returned to Judah were] Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah the son of Mica. Mica was the son if Zicri; Zicri was the son of Asaph.

17 From the [descendants of Levi who returned to Judah] who guarded the temple gates there were Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and some of their relatives. Shallum was their leader.
Ary ny mpiandry varavarana dia Saloma sy Akoba sy Talmona sy Ahimana ary ny rahalahiny; fa Saloma no lohany;
18 Those gatekeepers from the tribe of Levi stood at the King’s Gate on the east side [of the temple].
ambaraka ankehitriny dia ao amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny mpanjaka atsinanana izy; ireo no mpiandry varavarana tamin’ ny tobin’ ny taranak’ i Levy.
19 Shallum was the son of Kore. Kore was the son of Ebiasaph. Ebiasaph was the son of Korah. Shallum and his relatives were gatekeepers, and they were responsible to guard the gates of the Sacred Tent of Yahweh, like their ancestors had done.
Ary Saloma, zanak’ i Kore, zanak’ i Abiasafa, zanak’ i Kora, sy ny Koraïta rahalahiny araka ny fianakaviany avy no mpanao ny fanompoana amin’ ny fiandrasana ny varavaran’ ny lay; ary ny razany koa dia mpiambina ny vavahady tao amin’ ny tobin’ i Jehovah.
20 Previously Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, had supervised the gatekeepers, and Yahweh (was with/helped) Phinehas.
Ary Finehasa, zanak’ i Eleazara, no mpanapaka ireo taloha, ary Jehovah nomba azy.
21 Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
Ary Zakaria, zanak’ i Meselemia, no mpiandry ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana.
22 Altogether, there were 212 men who were chosen to guard the gates. Their names were written in the records of the clans in their villages. [King] David and the prophet Samuel appointed/chose those men because those men (were dependable/always did what they were told to do).
Ary ny isan’ ireo voafidy ho mpiandry varavarana ireo dia roa ambin’ ny folo amby roan-jato. Ireo dia voasoratra araka ny firazanany tany amin’ ny vohiny avy; ary notendren’ i Davida sy Samoela mpahita izy noho ny fahamarinany.
23 The work of those gatekeepers and their descendants was to guard the entrances of the Sacred Tent of Yahweh. That was before the temple was built to replace the Sacred Tent.
Ka dia ireo sy ny taranany no niandry varavarana tao amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia ny trano-lay.
24 There were gatekeepers on each of the four sides of the Sacred Tent.
Teo amin’ ny lafiny efatra no nitoeran’ ny mpiandry varavarana, dia teo atsinanana sy andrefana sy avaratra ary atsimo.
25 Sometimes it was necessary for the relatives of the gatekeepers who lived in those villages to come and help them. Each time some of them came, they helped the gatekeepers for seven days.
Ary ny rahalahiny izay nonina teo amin’ ny vohiny dia nasaina ho avy isan-kafitoana ho eo aminy.
26 There were four descendants of Levi who [worked every day, and they] supervised the gatekeepers. They also took care of the rooms and treasures in the Sacred Tent of God.
Fa nanao tamin’ ny fahamarinany ireo Levita efa-dahy, lohan’ ny mpiandry varavarana, ireo, ary tonian’ ny efi-trano fitehirizana sy ny rakitry ny tranon’ Andriamanitra koa izy ireo.
27 They remained awake all during the night to guard the Sacred Tent, and each morning they opened the gates.
Ary manodidina ny tranon’ Andriamanitra no nandriany; fa izy ireo no mpiambina azy sady adidiny ny famohana ny trano isa-maraina.
28 Some of the gatekeepers took care of the articles that were used in worship. They also took care of the flour, wine, olive oil, incense, and spices [that were used in the sacrifices].
Ary ny sasany aminy nitandrina ny fanaka momba ny fanompoana; fa an-isany no nitondrany azy miditra sy mivoaka.
29 Other gatekeepers were appointed to take care of the other things in the Sacred Tent.
Ary ny sasany aminy koa notendrena hitandrina ny fanaka, dia ny fanaka masìna rehetra, sy ny koba tsara toto sy ny divay sy ny diloilo sy ny ditin-kazo manitra ary ny zava-manitra.
30 But some of the priests had the work of mixing the spices.
Ary ny sasany tamin’ ny zanaky ny mpisorona nangaroharo ny zava-manitra fanosorana.
31 There was a descendant of Levi named Mattithiah, the oldest son of Shallum, who was a descendant of Korah. He (was very dependable/always did what he was told to do), so they gave him {he was given} the work of baking the bread that was used in the offerings [on the altar].
Ary Matatia, anankiray tamin’ ny Levita, lahimatoan’ i Saloma Koraïta, no tonian’ ny zavatra izay natao tamin’ ny fanendasana.
32 Some of the gatekeepers who were descended from Kohath prepared the freshly baked loaves of sacred bread that were placed on the table [inside the Sacred Tent] every Sabbath/rest day.
Ary ny sasany tamin’ ny rahalahiny, tamin’ ny taranaky ny Kehatita, no tonian’ ny mofo aseho hamboatra azy isan-tSabata.
33 Some of the descendants of Levi were musicians who worked in the Sacred Tent. The leaders of those families [stayed/slept] in the rooms [of the Sacred Tent]. They did not do [any other work] in the Sacred Tent because they were responsible to serve [as musicians] day and night.
Ary ireo ihany koa no mpihira, lohan’ ny fianakaviana amin’ ny Levita, izay mitoetra tsy manan-draharaha hafa ao amin’ ireo efi-trano; fa tsy maintsy ho amin’ izany raharaha izany andro aman’ alina izy.
34 Those are [the names of] the leaders of the clans descended from Levi. Their names were written in the records of the clans. They all lived in Jerusalem.
Ireo dia lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny Levita araka ny firazanany avy, dia samy loholona. Ireo no nonina tany Jerosalema.
35 [One of the descendants of Benjamin, ] Jeiel, lived in Gibeon [city]. He was the city leader. His wife’s name was Maacah.
Ary tao Gibeona no nonenan’ i Jeiela, razamben’ ny an’ i Gibeona, ary ny anaran’ ny vadiny dia Imaka;
36 His oldest son was Abdon. His other sons were Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab,
ary ny zanany lahimatoa dia Abdona, dia Zora, dia Kisy, dia Bala, dia Nera, dia Nadaba,
37 Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah, and Mikloth.
dia Gedora, dia Ahio, dia Zakaria, dia Miklota.
38 Mikloth was the father of Shimeam. Jeiel’s family lived near their relatives in Jerusalem.
Ary Miklota niteraka an’ i Simeama. Ary ireo koa niara-nonina tamin’ ny rahalahiny tany Jerosalema nifanandrify fonenana taminy.
39 Ner was the father of Kish. Kish was the father of [King] Saul. Saul was the father of Jonathan, Malchishua, Abinadab, and Esh-Baal.

40 Jonathan’s son was Merib-Baal. Merib-Baal was the father of Micah.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Jonatana dia Meribala, ary Meribala niteraka an’ i Mika.
41 Micah’s sons were Pithon, Melech, Tahrea, [and Ahaz].
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Mika dia Pitona sy Maleka sy Tarea ary Ahaza.
42 Ahaz was the father of Jadah (OR, Jarah). Jadah was the father of Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri. Zimri was the father of Moza.
Ary Ahaza niteraka an’ i Jara; ary Jara niteraka an’ i Alemeta sy Azmaveta ary Zimry; ary Zimry niteraka an’ i Moza;
43 Moza was the father of Binea. The son of Binea was Rephaiah. The son of Rephaiah was Eleasah. The son of Eleasah was Azel.
ary Moza niteraka an’ i Binea; ary Refaia no zanakalahin’ i Binea, Elasa no zanakalahin’ i Refaia, Azela no zanakalahin’ i Elasa.
44 Azel had six sons: Azrikam, Bokeru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah, and Hanan.
Ary Azela nanana zanaka enina mirahalahy ka izao no anarany avy: Azrikama sy Bokero sy Isimaela sy Searia sy Obadia ary Hanana; ireo no zanakalahin’ i Azela.
