1 Chronicles 26
1 Concerning the divisions of the porters: Of the Korhites was Meshelemiah the son of Kore, of the sons of Asaph.
Huu ulikuwa mgawanyiko wa walinzi wa lango: Kutoka kwa Wakora, Meshelemia mwana wa Kore, wa uzao wa Asafu.
2 And the sons of Meshelemiah were, Zechariah the firstborn, Jediael the second, Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth,
Meshelemia alikuwa na wana wa kiume: Zekaria mzaliwa wa kwanza, Yediaeli wapili, Zebadia watatu, Yathinieli wanne,
3 Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, Elioenai the seventh.
Elamu watano, Yehohanani wasita, Eliehoenai wasaba.
4 Moreover the sons of Obededom were, Shemaiah the firstborn, Jehozabad the second, Joah the third, and Sacar the fourth, and Nethaneel the fifth,
Obedi alikuwa na wana wa kiume: Shemaia wa kwanza, Yehozabadi wapili, Yoa watatu, na Sakari wanne, na Nethanieli watano,
5 Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peulthai the eighth: for God blessed him.
Amieli wasita, Isakari wasaba, Peulethai wanane, kwa kuwa Mungu alimbariki Obedi Edomu.
6 Also to Shemaiah his son were sons born, that ruled throughout the house of their father: for they were mighty men of valour.
Kwa Shemaia mwanae walizawa wana walio tawala familia zao; walikuwa wanaume wenye uwezo mbali mbali.
7 The sons of Shemaiah; Othni, and Rephael, and Obed, Elzabad, whose brethren were strong men, Elihu, and Semachiah.
Wana wa Shemaia walikuwa Othini, Refaeli, Obedi, na Elizabadi. Ndugu zake Elihu na Semakia walikuwa wanaume wenye uwezo mbali mbali.
8 All these of the sons of Obededom: they and their sons and their brethren, able men for strength for the service, were sixty and two of Obededom.
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.
9 And Meshelemiah had sons and brethren, strong men, eighteen.
Meshelemia alikuwa na wana na ndugu, wanaume wenye uwezo, jumla ya kumi na nane.
10 Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons; Simri the chief, (for though he was not the firstborn, yet his father made him the chief; )
Hosa, mzao wa Merari, alikuwa na wana: Shimiri kiongozi (japo hakuwa mzaliwa wa kwanza, baba yake alimfanya kiongozi),
11 Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, Zechariah the fourth: all the sons and brethren of Hosah were thirteen.
Hilikia wapili, Tebalia watatu, Zekaria wanne. Wote wa wana wa Hosa na ndugu walikuwa kumi na tatu kwa idadi.
12 Among these were the divisions of the porters, even among the chief men, having duties like one another, to minister in the house of the LORD.
Huu mgawanyiko wa walinzi wa lango, sambamba na viongozi, ulikuwa na majukumu, kama ndugu zao, kutumika katika nyumba ya Yahweh.
13 And they cast lots, as well the small as the great, according to the house of their fathers, for every gate.
Walirusha kura, wadogo kwa wakubwa, kulingana na familia zao, kwa kila lango.
14 And the lot eastward fell to Shelemiah. Then for Zechariah his son, a wise counsellor, 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.
15 To Obededom southward; and to his sons the house of Asuppim.
Kwa Obedi Edomu kulipangiwa lango la kusini, na wanae walipangiwa nyumba za ghala.
16 To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward, with the gate Shallecheth, by the way of the ascent, watch against watch.
Shufimu na Hosa walipangiwa lango la magharibi pamoja na lango la Shalekethi, kwa barabara ya juu. Lindo lilikabiidhiwa kwa kila familia.
17 Eastward were six Levites, northward four a day, southward four a day, and toward Asuppim two and two.
Kwa mashariki walikuwa Walawi sita, kaskazini kwa siku moja, kusini kwa siku moja, na nyumba za ghala wawili.
18 At Parbar westward, four at the highway, and two at Parbar.
Katika ua kuelekea magharibi wanne walipangwa, wanne barabarani, na wawili katika ua.
19 These are the divisions of the porters among the sons of Kore, and among the sons of Merari.
Haya yalikuwa magawanyiko ya walinzi wa lango. Palijazwa na uzao wa Kora na Merari.
20 And of the Levites, Ahijah was over the treasuries of the house of God, and over the treasuries of the dedicated things.
Miongoni mwa Walawi, Ahija alikuwa kiongozi wa hazina ya nyumba ya Mungu, na hazina ya vitu vya Yahweh.
21 As concerning the sons of Laadan; the sons of the Gershonite Laadan, chief fathers, even of Laadan the Gershonite, were Jehieli.
Wazao wa Ladani, walitoka kwa Gerishoni kupitia kwake na walio kuwa viongozi wa familia za Ladani Mgerishoni, walikuwa Yehieli na wanae,
22 The sons of Jehieli; Zetham, and Joel his brother, who were over the treasuries of the house of the LORD.
Zethamu, na Yoeli kaka yake, aliyesimamia ghala za nyumba ya Yahweh.
23 Of the Amramites, and the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites:
Kulikuwa na askari walio chukuliwa kwa koo za Amramu, Izhari, Hebroni, na uzieli.
24 And Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was ruler of the treasuries.
Shebueli mwana wa Gerishomu mwana wa Musa, alikuwa msimamizi wa nyumba za ghala.
25 And his brethren by Eliezer; Rehabiah his son, and Jeshaiah his son, and Joram his son, and Zichri his son, and Shelomith his son.
Ndugu zake wa ukoo wa Eliezeri walikuwa Rehabia mwanae, mwana wa Rehabia Yeshaia, mwana wa Yeshaia Yoramu, mwana wa Yoramu Zikiri, na mwana wa Zikiri Shelomothi.
26 Which Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the dedicated things, which David the king, and the chief fathers, the captains over thousands and hundreds, and the captains of the host, had dedicated.
Shelomothi na ndugu zake walikuwa wasimamizi wa nyumba zote za ghala zinazo hifadhi vitu vyote vya Yahweh, ambavyo Daudi mfalme, viongozi wa familia, wakuu wa maelfu na mamia, na wakuu wa jeshi walivyo vitenga.
27 Out of the spoils won in battles did they dedicate to maintain the house of the LORD.
Walitenga vitu walivyo vichukuwa kwenye mapambano kwa ajili ya kutunza nyumba ya Yahweh.
28 And all that Samuel the seer, and Saul the son of Kish, and Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah, had dedicated; and whoever had dedicated any thing, it was under the hand of Shelomith, and of his brethren.
Pia walikuwa wahusika wa kila kitu kilicho tengwa kwa ajili ya Yahweh na Samweli nabii, Sauli mwana wa Kishi, Abneri mwana wa Neri, na Yoabu mwana wa Zeruia. Kila kitu kilicho tengwa kwa ajili ya Yahweh kilikuwa chini ya ulinzi wa shelomothi na ndugu zake.
29 Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons were for the outward business over Israel, for officers and judges.
Wa uzao wa Izhari, Kenania na wana wake walikuwa wahusika wa mambo ya ndani ya Israeli. Walikuwa maafisa na waamuzi.
30 And of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brethren, men of valour, a thousand and seven hundred, were officers among them of Israel on this side of Jordan westward in all the business of the LORD, and in the service of the king.
Wa uzao wa Hebroni, Hashabia na kaka zake, wanaume wenye uwezo 1, 700, walikuwa wahusika wa kazi ya Yahweh na kazi ya mfalme. Walikuwa upande wa mgharibi mwa Yordani.
31 Among the Hebronites was Jerijah the chief, even among the Hebronites, according to the generations of his fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought for, and there were found among them mighty men of valour at Jazer of Gilead.
Kutoka uzao wa Hebroni, Yeriya alikuwa kiongozi wa uzao wake, walihesabiwa kutoka orodha za familia zao. Katika mwaka wa arobaini wa utawala wa Daudi walitathimini kumbukumbu na kugundua miongoni mwao wanaume wa uwezo katika Yazeri ya Gileadi.
32 And his brethren, men of valour, were two thousand and seven hundred chief fathers, whom king David made rulers over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to God, and affairs of the king.
Yerija alikuwa na ndugu 2, 700, walio kuwa viongozi wenye uwezo katika familia. Daudi aliwafanya waangalizi wa makabila ya Rubeni na Gadi, na nusu kabila la Manase, kwa kila jambo linalo muhusu Mungu, na kwa mambo ya mfalme.
