Amieli wasita, Isakari wasaba, Peulethai wanane, kwa kuwa Mungu alimbariki Obedi Edomu.
6 Sons were also born to Shemaiah his son, who ruled over the house of their father; for they were mighty men of valor.
Kwa Shemaia mwanae walizawa wana walio tawala familia zao; walikuwa wanaume wenye uwezo mbali mbali.

Hawa wote walikuwa uzao wa Obedi Edomu. Wao na wanao na ndugu zao walikuwa wanaume wenye uwezo wa kufanya wajibu wao katika huduma ya hema la kuabudia. Palikuwa na sitini na mbili walio kuwa na undugu na Obedi Edomu.

Huu mgawanyiko wa walinzi wa lango, sambamba na viongozi, ulikuwa na majukumu, kama ndugu zao, kutumika katika nyumba ya Yahweh.
13 They cast lots, the small as well as the great, according to their fathers’ houses, for every gate.
Walirusha kura, wadogo kwa wakubwa, kulingana na familia zao, kwa kila lango.
14 The lot eastward fell to Shelemiah. Then for Zechariah his son, a wise counselor, they cast lots; and his lot came out northward.
Kura ilipo rushwa kwa lango la mashariki, ilimuangukia Shelemia. Kisha wakarusha kura kwa Zekaria mwana wake, mshauri makini, na kura yake ikatokea lango la kaskazini.
