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.
εἰς διαιρέσεις τῶν πυλῶν υἱοῖς Κορεϊμ Μοσολλαμια υἱὸς Κωρη ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Αβιασαφ
2 The oldest son of Meshelemiah was Zechariah. His other sons were Jediael, Zebadiah, Jathniel,
καὶ τῷ Μοσολλαμια υἱοί Ζαχαριας ὁ πρωτότοκος Ιδιηλ ὁ δεύτερος Ζαβαδιας ὁ τρίτος Ιεθνουηλ ὁ τέταρτος
3 Elam, Jehohanan, and Eliehoenai.
Ωλαμ ὁ πέμπτος Ιωαναν ὁ ἕκτος Ελιωηναι ὁ ἕβδομος
4 [Another guard] was Obed-Edom. His oldest son was Shemaiah. His other sons were Jehozabad, Joah, Sacar, Nethanel,
καὶ τῷ Αβδεδομ υἱοί Σαμαιας ὁ πρωτότοκος Ιωζαβαδ ὁ δεύτερος Ιωαα ὁ τρίτος Σωχαρ ὁ τέταρτος Ναθαναηλ ὁ πέμπτος
5 Ammiel, Issachar, and Peullethai. It was because God had blessed him that he had many sons.
Αμιηλ ὁ ἕκτος Ισσαχαρ ὁ ἕβδομος Φολλαθι ὁ ὄγδοος ὅτι εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν ὁ θεός
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.
καὶ τῷ Σαμαια υἱῷ αὐτοῦ ἐτέχθησαν υἱοὶ τοῦ πρωτοτόκου Ρωσαι εἰς τὸν οἶκον τὸν πατρικὸν αὐτοῦ ὅτι δυνατοὶ ἦσαν
7 The sons of Shemaiah were Othni, Rephael, Obed, and Elzabad. Shemaiah’s relatives Elihu and Semakiah were also capable men.
υἱοὶ Σαμαια Γοθνι καὶ Ραφαηλ καὶ Ωβηδ καὶ Ελζαβαδ καὶ Αχιου υἱοὶ δυνατοί Ελιου καὶ Σαβχια καὶ Ισβακωμ
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.
πάντες ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Αβδεδομ αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν καὶ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν ποιοῦντες δυνατῶς ἐν τῇ ἐργασίᾳ οἱ πάντες ἑξήκοντα δύο τῷ Αβδεδομ
9 Another guard was Meshelemiah. He and his sons and relatives were also capable people. There were 18 of them altogether.
καὶ τῷ Μοσολλαμια υἱοὶ καὶ ἀδελφοὶ δέκα καὶ ὀκτὼ δυνατοί
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.
καὶ τῷ Ωσα τῶν υἱῶν Μεραρι υἱοὶ φυλάσσοντες τὴν ἀρχήν ὅτι οὐκ ἦν πρωτότοκος καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ἄρχοντα
11 Hosah’s other sons were Hilkiah, Tabaliah, and Zechariah. Altogether there were 13 sons and relatives of Hosah.
τῆς διαιρέσεως τῆς δευτέρας Ταβλαι ὁ τρίτος Ζαχαριας ὁ τέταρτος πάντες οὗτοι υἱοὶ καὶ ἀδελφοὶ τῷ Ωσα τρισκαίδεκα
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.
τούτοις αἱ διαιρέσεις τῶν πυλῶν τοῖς ἄρχουσι τῶν δυνατῶν ἐφημερίαι καθὼς οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν λειτουργεῖν ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου
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.
καὶ ἔβαλον κλήρους κατὰ τὸν μικρὸν καὶ κατὰ τὸν μέγαν κατ’ οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν εἰς πυλῶνα καὶ πυλῶνα
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.
καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ κλῆρος τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς τῷ Σαλαμια καὶ Ζαχαρια υἱοὶ Ιωας τῷ Μελχια ἔβαλον κλήρους καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ κλῆρος βορρᾶ
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.
τῷ Αβδεδομ νότον κατέναντι οἴκου εσεφιν
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.
εἰς δεύτερον τῷ Ωσα πρὸς δυσμαῖς μετὰ τὴν πύλην παστοφορίου τῆς ἀναβάσεως φυλακὴ κατέναντι φυλακῆς
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.
πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἓξ τὴν ἡμέραν βορρᾶ τῆς ἡμέρας τέσσαρες νότον τῆς ἡμέρας τέσσαρες καὶ εἰς τὸ εσεφιν δύο
18 At the West gate there were two men who guarded the courtyard and four who guarded the road outside the courtyard.
εἰς διαδεχομένους καὶ πρὸς δυσμαῖς τέσσαρες καὶ εἰς τὸν τρίβον δύο διαδεχομένους
19 Those were the groups of men who were descendants of Korah and Merari who guarded the gates [of the temple].
αὗται αἱ διαιρέσεις τῶν πυλωρῶν τοῖς υἱοῖς Κορε καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Μεραρι
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.
καὶ οἱ Λευῖται ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῶν θησαυρῶν οἴκου κυρίου καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν θησαυρῶν τῶν καθηγιασμένων
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.
υἱοὶ Λαδαν υἱοὶ τῷ Γηρσωνι τῷ Λαδαν ἄρχοντες πατριῶν τῷ Λαδαν τῷ Γηρσωνι Ιιηλ
22 Others who had that work were Zetham and his [younger] brother Joel, who were the sons of Jehiel.
καὶ υἱοὶ Ιιηλ Ζεθομ καὶ Ιωηλ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἐπὶ τῶν θησαυρῶν οἴκου κυρίου
23 Others who did that work were descendants of Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel.
τῷ Αμβραμ καὶ Ισσααρ Χεβρων καὶ Οζιηλ
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.
καὶ Σουβαηλ ὁ τοῦ Γηρσαμ τοῦ Μωυσῆ ἡγούμενος ἐπὶ τῶν θησαυρῶν
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.
καὶ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ τῷ Ελιεζερ Ρααβιας υἱὸς καὶ Ιωσαιας καὶ Ιωραμ καὶ Ζεχρι καὶ Σαλωμωθ
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.
αὐτὸς Σαλωμωθ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πάντων τῶν θησαυρῶν τῶν ἁγίων οὓς ἡγίασεν Δαυιδ ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν πατριῶν χιλίαρχοι καὶ ἑκατόνταρχοι καὶ ἀρχηγοὶ τῆς δυνάμεως
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.
ἃ ἔλαβεν ἐκ τῶν πολέμων καὶ ἐκ τῶν λαφύρων καὶ ἡγίασεν ἀπ’ αὐτῶν τοῦ μὴ καθυστερῆσαι τὴν οἰκοδομὴν τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ θεοῦ
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.
καὶ ἐπὶ πάντων τῶν ἁγίων Σαμουηλ τοῦ προφήτου καὶ Σαουλ τοῦ Κις καὶ Αβεννηρ τοῦ Νηρ καὶ Ιωαβ τοῦ Σαρουια πᾶν ὃ ἡγίασαν διὰ χειρὸς Σαλωμωθ καὶ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ
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.
τῷ Ισσαρι Χωνενια καὶ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ τῆς ἐργασίας τῆς ἔξω ἐπὶ τὸν Ισραηλ τοῦ γραμματεύειν καὶ διακρίνειν
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.
τῷ Χεβρωνι Ασαβιας καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ υἱοὶ δυνατοί χίλιοι καὶ ἑπτακόσιοι ἐπὶ τῆς ἐπισκέψεως τοῦ Ισραηλ πέραν τοῦ Ιορδάνου πρὸς δυσμαῖς εἰς πᾶσαν λειτουργίαν κυρίου καὶ ἐργασίαν τοῦ βασιλέως
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].
τοῦ Χεβρωνι Ιουδιας ὁ ἄρχων τῶν Χεβρωνι κατὰ γενέσεις αὐτῶν κατὰ πατριάς ἐν τῷ τεσσαρακοστῷ ἔτει τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ ἐπεσκέπησαν καὶ εὑρέθη ἀνὴρ δυνατὸς ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐν Ιαζηρ τῆς Γαλααδίτιδος
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.
καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ υἱοὶ δυνατοί δισχίλιοι ἑπτακόσιοι ἄρχοντες πατριῶν καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτοὺς Δαυιδ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ τοῦ Ρουβηνι καὶ Γαδδι καὶ ἡμίσους φυλῆς Μανασση εἰς πᾶν πρόσταγμα κυρίου καὶ λόγον βασιλέως
