I Oihanaalii 24
1 EIA ka puunaue ana i na keikikane a Aarona. O na keikikane a Aarona, o Nadaba, o Abihu, o Eleazara, a o Itamara.
These are the groups of the descendants of Aaron [the first Supreme Priest]: Aaron’s four sons were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2 A make iho o Nadaba laua o Abihu mamua o ko laua makuakane, aole no a laua keiki: nolaila, na Eleazara laua o Itamara i hana ka oihanakahuna.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father died, and they had no children. So their [younger] brothers Eleazar and Ithamar became the priests.
3 A hoonoho iho la o Davida ia laua, o Zadoka no na mamo a Eleazara, a o Ahimeleka no na mamo a Itamara e like me ko laua kuleana iloko o ka oihana a laua.
Zadok, who was a descendant of Eleazar, and Ahimelech, who was a descendant of Ithamar, helped David to separate his descendants into two groups. Each group had certain duties.
4 A ua oi aku ka nui o na luna i loaa o na mamo a Eleazara imua o na mamo a Itamara: a ua puunaueia hoi lakou. Iwaena o na mamo a Eleazara, he umikumamaono ka poe luna no ka ohana o ko lakou mau kupuna, a he awalu hoi iwaena o na mamo a Itamara, e like me ka ohana a ko lakou mau kupunakane.
There were more leaders among the descendants of Eleazar than there were among the descendants of Ithamar. So they appointed 16 leaders from Eleazar’s descendants and eight leaders from Ithamar’s descendants.
5 Pela lakou i puunaueia'i ma ka puu ana, o kekahi poe me kekahi poe; no ka mea, o na luna no kahi hoano, a me na luna [o ka hale] o ke Akua, no na keiki lakou a Eleazara, a no na keiki a Itamara.
There were temple officials and priests, including descendants of both Eleazar and Ithamar, to make sure that the work was divided fairly. So they decided what work each person would do by (casting lots/throwing marked stones).
6 A o Semaia ke keiki a Netaneela, ke kakauolelo no na Levi, kakau iho la oia ia lakou imua o ke alii nui a me na alii, a me Zadoka ke kahuna, a me Ahimeleka ke keiki a Abiatara, a me na luna o na ohana kahuna a o na Levi: hookahi ohana kupuna i kakauia no Eleazara, a hookahi hoi no Itamara.
Shemaiah, the son of Nethanel, who was a descendant of Levi, wrote down the names [of the leaders of each group] while David and his officials were watching. Zadok, the [Supreme] Priest, and Ahimelech [his assistant], and the leaders of the families of the priests and of the families of the other descendants of Levi also watched.

Those were the men who were chosen to be the leaders of the groups that would serve in the temple, obeying the regulations that were set down by Aaron, regulations which Yahweh, the God to whom the Israeli people belonged, had given to him.

The sons of Mushi were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth. Those were descendants of Levi who were listed according to the leaders of their families.
31 Puu iho la no hoi lakou e ku pono aku ana i ko lakou poe hoahanau na mamo a Aarona, imua hoi o ke alii o Davida, a o Zadoka, a o Ahimeleka, a me na makua'lii o na kahuna a me ka Levi, oia hoi, na luna makuakane e ku pono ana i ko lakou poe kaikaina.
The jobs they would do were decided by (casting lots/throwing marked stones), like their fellow Israelis, the descendants of Aaron, did. They cast lots {The lots were cast} while King David, Zadok, Ahimelech, and the leaders of the families of the priests and the [other] descendants of Levi watched. They gave the same jobs to the families of each oldest brother and each youngest brother.
