1 Kronická 23
1 Sstarav se pak David, a jsa pln dnů, ustanovil králem Šalomouna syna svého nad Izraelem,
When David was old and near the end of his life, he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
2 A shromáždil všecka knížata Izraelská, i kněží a Levíty.
He gathered together all the leaders of Israel, with the priests and Levites.
3 I sečteni jsou Levítové od třidcítiletých a výše, a byl počet jich, vedlé jmen a osob jejich, třidceti a osm tisíců.
The Levites who were thirty years old and older were counted. They numbered thirty-eight thousand.
4 Z kterýchž postaveno bylo nad dílem domu Hospodinova čtyřmecítma tisíců, vladařů pak a soudců šest tisíců,
“Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of Yahweh's house, and six thousand were officers and judges.
5 A vrátných čtyři tisíce, a čtyři tisíce chválících Hospodina na nástrojích, kterýchž nadělal k chválení Boha.
Four thousand were gatekeepers, and four thousand were to praise Yahweh with the instruments that I made to give praise,” David said.
6 I nařídil David pořádku mezi syny Léví, totiž mezi syny Gerson, Kahat a Merari.
He divided them into groups that corresponded to Levi's sons: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7 Z Gersona byli Ladan a Semei.
From the clans descended from Gershon, there were Ladan and Shimei.
8 Synové Ladan: Kníže Jehiel, Zetam a Joel, ti tři.
There were three of Ladan's sons: Jehiel the leader, Zetham, and Joel.
9 Synové Semei: Selomit, Oziel a Háran, ti tři. Ta jsou knížata otcovských čeledí Ladanských.
There were three of Shimei's sons: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran. These were the leaders of the clans of Ladan.
10 Synové pak Semei: Jachat, Zina, Jehus a Beria. Ti čtyři jsou synové Semei.
There were four of Shimei's sons: Jahath, Ziza, Jeush, and Beriah.
11 Byl pak Jachat kníže, a Ziza druhý, ale Jehus a Beria ne mnoho měli synů, a protož v čeledi otcovské za jedny byli počítáni.
Jahath was the oldest, and Ziza the second, but Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons, so they were considered as one clan with the same duties.
12 Synové Kahat: Amram, Izar, Hebron a Uziel, ti čtyři.
There were four of Kohath's sons: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
13 Synové Amramovi: Aron a Mojžíš. Byl pak oddělen Aron, aby sloužil v svatyni svatých, on i synové jeho na věky, a aby kadili před Hospodinem, a sloužili jemu, i dobrořečili ve jménu jeho až na věky.
These were Amram's sons: Aaron and Moses. Aaron was chosen to set apart the most holy things, that he and his descendants would offer incense before Yahweh, to serve him and to give blessings in his name forever.
14 Ale synové Mojžíše, muže Božího, počteni jsou v pokolení Léví.
But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were considered to be Levites.
15 Synové Mojžíšovi: Gersom a Eliezer.
Moses' sons were Gershom and Eliezer.
16 Synové Gersomovi: Sebuel kníže.
Gershom's descendant was Shubael the oldest.
17 A synové Eliezerovi: Rechabiáš kníže. Neměl pak Eliezer více synů, ale synové Rechabiášovi rozmnožili se velmi.
Eliezer's descendant was Rehabiah. Eliezer had no other sons, but Rehabiah had many descendants.
18 Synové Izarovi: Selomit kníže.
Izhar's son was Shelomith the leader.
19 Synové Hebronovi: Jeriáš kníže, Amariáš druhé, Jachaziel třetí, a Jekmaam čtvrté.
Hebron's descendants were Jeriah, the oldest, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
20 Synové Uzielovi: Mícha kníže, a Jezia druhý.
Uzziel's sons were Micah the oldest, and Ishijah the second.
21 Synové Merari: Moholi a Musi. Synové Moholi: Eleazar a Cis.
Merari's sons were Mahli and Mushi. Mahli's sons were Eleazar and Kish.
22 Umřel pak Eleazar, a neměl synů, než toliko dcery, kteréž pojali synové Cis, bratří jejich.
Eleazar died without having any sons. He had only daughters. The sons of Kish married them.
23 Synové Musi: Moholi a Eder a Jerimot, ti tři.
Mushi's three sons were Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth.
24 Ti jsou synové Léví po čeledech svých, knížata čeledí, kteříž vyčteni byli vedlé počtu jmen a osob, konající dílo v přisluhování domu Hospodinova od dvadcítiletých a výše.
These were Levi's descendants corresponding to their clans. They were the leaders, counted and listed by name, of the clans that did the work in the service of Yahweh's house, from twenty years old and upward.
25 Nebo řekl David: Odpočinutí dal Hospodin Bůh Izraelský lidu svému, a bydliti bude v Jeruzalémě až na věky.
For David said, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people. He makes his home in Jerusalem forever.
26 Ano i Levítové nebudou více nositi stánku, ani kterých nádob jeho k přisluhování jeho.
The Levites will no longer need to carry the tabernacle and all the equipment used in its service.”
27 A tak podlé nařízení Davidova nejposlednějšího byvše sečteni synové Léví, počna od dvadcítiletých a výše,
For by David's last words the Levites were counted, from twenty years old and upward.
28 Postaveni byli, aby byli ku pomoci synů Aronových, v přisluhování domu Hospodinova v síňcích, v pokojích a při očišťování všeliké věci svaté, i při práci služebnosti domu Božího,
Their duty was to assist Aaron's descendants in the service of Yahweh's house. They were to care for the courtyards, the rooms, the ceremonial purification of all the things that belong to Yahweh, and other work in the service of God's house.
29 Též při chlebích posvátných, a při běli k obětem suchým, při koláčích přesných, a při pánvicích a rendlících, i při všeliké míře a měření,
They also took care of the bread of the presence, the fine flour for grain offerings, the unleavened wafers, the baked offerings, the offerings mixed with oil, and all the measuring of the amounts and sizes of things.
30 A aby stáli každého jitra k slavení a chválení Hospodina, tolikéž i u večer,
They also stood every morning to thank and praise Yahweh. They also did this in the evening
31 A při všeliké oběti zápalů Hospodinových ve dny sobotní, a na novměsíce a v svátky výroční v jistém počtu, vedlé řádu jejich ustavičně před Hospodinem,
and whenever burnt offerings were offered to Yahweh, on the Sabbath and at the new moon festivals and feast days. A fixed number, assigned by decree, always had to be present before Yahweh.
32 A tak aby drželi stráž stánku úmluvy, a stráž svatyně, i stráž synů Aronových, bratří svých v službě domu Hospodinova.
They were in charge of the tent of meeting, the holy place, and helped their fellow descendants of Aaron in the service of Yahweh's house.
