1 Weiter sonderten David und die Heeresobersten die Nachkommen Asaphs und Jeduthuns, die mit Zithern, Harfen und Cymbeln begeistert musizierten, für den heiligen Dienst aus. Und es betrug die Zahl derer, die mit diesem Dienste beschäftigt waren:
David and some of the temple officials (OR, army commanders) chose some of the descendants of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun to be in charge of proclaiming God’s messages, and to play harps and lyres and cymbals. This is a list of the men whom they chose for that work:
2 Von den Nachkommen Asaphs waren Sakkur, Joseph, Nethanja und Asarela, die Söhne Asaphs, nach Anweisung Asaphs, der nach Anweisung des Königs begeistert musizierte.
From the sons of Asaph they chose Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, and Aserelah. Asaph supervised them. And the king appointed Asaph to proclaim God’s messages.
3 Von Jeduthun: die Söhne Jeduthuns: Gedalja, Zeri, Jesaja, Hasabja, Mattithja, Simei, zusammen sechs, zur Unterstützung ihres Vaters Jeduthun, der beim Danksagen und beim Lobpreise Jahwes begeistert mit der Harfe musizierte.
From the sons of Jeduthun they chose six men: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah. Jeduthun supervised them and also proclaimed God’s messages, playing his harp while he thanked and praised Yahweh.
4 Von Heman: Die Söhne Hemans: Bukkia, Mattanja, Ussiel, Sebuel, Jerimoth, Hananja, Hanani, Eliatha, Giddalthi, Romamthi-Eser, Josbekasa, Mallothi, Hothir, Mahasioth.
From the sons of Heman, who was one of the king’s prophets, they chose Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shubael, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamti-Ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth.
5 Diese alle waren Söhne Hemans, des Schauers des Königs, kraft der Verheißung Gottes, sein Horn zu erheben. Und Gott verlieh Heman vierzehn Söhne und drei Töchter.
God promised to cause Heman to be strong, so altogether, God have him 14 sons and three daughters.
6 Diese alle waren unter der Leitung ihres Vaters beim Gesang im Tempel Jahwes thätig mit Cymbeln, Harfen und Zithern, zum Dienst im Tempel Gottes, unter der Leitung des Königs, Asaphs, Jeduthuns und Hemans.
All those men were supervised by their fathers while they played music in the temple of Yahweh. They played cymbals, lyres, and harps. And their fathers—Asaph, Jeduthun and Heman—were supervised by the king.
7 Und ihre Anzahl nebst der ihrer Verwandten, die mit den Liedern Jahwes vertraut waren, aller Meister, belief sich auf 288.
