The Levites the chiefs of the families in the days of Eliasib, and Joiada, and Johanan, and Jeddoa, were recorded, and the priests in the reign of Darius the Persian.
23 Tusruktu, inen sifen sou lun mwet Levi tuh filiyuki in ma simusla fulat nwe ke na pacl lal Jonathan, wen nutin natul Eliashib.
The sons of Levi, heads of the families were written in the book of Chronicles, even unto the days of Jonathan the son of Eliasib.

Now the chief of the Levites were Hasebia, Serebia, and Josue the son of Cedmihel: and their brethren by their courses, to praise and to give thanks according to the commandment of David the man of God, and to wait equally in order.
25 Pa inge inen mwet topang ke mutunpot lun Tempul su liyaung infukil in filma sisken mutunpot lun Tempul: Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, ac Akkub.
Mathania, and Becbecia, Obedia, and Mosollam, Telmon, Accub, were keepers of the gates and of the entrances before the gates.
26 Mwet inge moul in pacl lal Joiakim, wen natul Joshua, wen natul Jehozadak, ac in pacl sac Nehemiah el governor, ac Ezra, mwet sasla ke Ma Sap, el mwet tol.
These were in the days of Joacim the son of Josue, the son of Josedec, and in the days of Nehemias the governor, and of Esdras the priest and scribe.
27 Ke pacl se pot lun siti Jerusalem kisaiyukla, utukeni mwet Levi liki acn nukewa elos muta we, tuh elos in wi akfulatye len in kisa ke pusren on in sang kulo oayapa ke pusren cymbal ac harp.
And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, and to keep the dedication, and to rejoice with thanksgiving, and with singing, and with cymbals, and psalteries and harps.
28 Sou in on lun mwet Levi elos fahsreni liki acn elos oakwuk we rauneak Jerusalem, ac liki inkul ma rauneak acn Netophah,
And the sons of the singing men were gathered together out of the plain country about Jerusalem, and out of the villages of Nethuphati,
29 oayapa liki Bethgilgal, Geba, ac Azmaveth.
And from the house of Galgal, and from the countries of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singing men had built themselves villages round about Jerusalem.
30 Mwet tol ac mwet Levi elos aknasnasyalos sifacna, oayapa elos aknasnasye mwet uh, mutunoa uh, ac pot lun siti uh, fal nu ke oakwuk lun alu lalos.
And the priests and the Levites purified, and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
31 Nga pangoneni mwet kol lun Judah nu fin pot uh, ac sap tuh elos in kol u lulap luo in fahsr rauni siti uh, ac sang kulo nu sin God. U se meet ut layen layot fin pot uh ac fahsr nu ke Mutunpot Kutkut.
And I made the princes of Juda go up upon the wall, and I appointed two great choirs to give praise. And they went on the right hand upon the wall toward the dunghill gate.
32 Hoshaiah el fahsr tukun mwet on, ac tafu mwet kol lun Judah fahsr tokol.
And after them went Osaias, and half of the princes of Juda,

And Azarias, Esdras, and Mosollam,
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, ac Jeremiah,
Judas, and Benjamin, and Semeia, and Jeremias.

And of the sons of the priests with trumpets, Zacharias the son of Jonathan. the son of Semeia, the son of Mathania; the son of Michaia, the son of Zechur, the son of Asaph,
36 oayapa mwet wial inge: Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, ac Hanani, elos nukewa us kain in mwe on ma Tokosra David, mwet lun God, el tuh sritalkin. Ezra, mwet sasla ke Ma Sap, el fahsr meet liki u se inge ke elos takla fahsr.
And his brethren Semeia, and Azareel Malalai, Galalai, Maai, Nathanael, and Judas, and Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God: and Esdras the scribe before them at the fountain gate.
37 Sisken Mutunpot Unon elos fanyak ke step ma utyak nu ke Siti sel David, aliki inkul fulat sel Tokosra David, ac folok nu ke kalkal sisken Mutunpot Kof, layen kutulap ke siti ah.
And they went up over against them by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall of the house of David, and to the water gate eastward:
38 U se akluo sin mwet su fahsr ac sang kulo elos ut layen lasa fin pot uh, ac nga fahsr tokolos wi tafu mwet uh. Kut takla fahsr alukela Tower lun Funyu nu ke Pot Sralap,
And the second choir of them that gave thanks went on the opposite side, and I after them, and the half of the people upon the wall, and upon the tower of the furnaces, even to the broad wall,
39 ac liki acn sac kut fahsr alukela Mutunpot Ephraim, Mutunpot Jeshanah, Mutunpot Ik, Tower lun Hananel, ac Tower lun Foko, nu ke Mutunpot Sheep. Kut aksafye fahsr lasr apkuran nu ke mutunpot nu ke Tempul.
And above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old gate, and above the fish gate and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Emath, and even to the flock gate: and they stood still in the watch gate.
40 Ou inge u luo kewa su sang kulo nu sin God elos sun acn ma Tempul oan we. Sayen mwet kol su wiyu,
And the two choirs of them that gave praise stood still at the house of God, and I and the half of the magistrates with me.
41 oasr pac mwet tol ke u se luk inge, su uk mwe ukuk: Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, ac Hananiah;
And the priests, Eliachim, Maasia, Miamin, Michea, Elioenai, Zacharia, Hanania with trumpets,
42 na mwet fahsr tokolos pa Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, ac Ezer. Mwet on elos on ke pusra lulap, ac Jezrahiah el mwet kol lalos.
And Maasia, and Semeia, and Eleazar, and Azzi, and Johanan, and Melchia, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sung loud, and Jezraia was their overseer:
43 Ke len sac, mwet uh kisakin mwe kisa puspis, ac elos sessesla ke engan mweyen God El oru tuh elos in arulana engan. Mutan ac tulik elos wi pac akfulat, ac pusren mwet nukewa arulana yohk, ku in lohngyuk oe yen loessula.
And they sacrificed on that day great sacrifices, and they rejoiced: for God had made them joyful with great joy: their wives also and their children rejoiced, and the joy of Jerusalem was heard afar off.
44 In pacl sac itukyang kutu mukul in fosrngakin infukil in filma, yen mwe sang ma orekeni lun Tempul karinginyuk we, weang sie tafu singoul in mwe kosrani lalos, ac fahko se meet ke kais sie yac ke wheat ac fokinsak. Ma kunen mukul inge in eisani ma orekeni nu sin mwet tol ac mwet Levi, liki ima in kais sie siti, fal nu ke ma oakwuki in Ma Sap. Mwet Judah nukewa elos insewowo ke mwet tol ac mwet Levi,
They appointed also in that day men over the storehouses of the treasure, for the libations, and for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, that the rulers of the city might bring them in by them in honour of thanksgiving, for the priests and Levites: for Juda was joyful in the priests and Levites that assisted.
45 mweyen elos orala alu in aknasnas ac oakwuk saya ke alu lalos su God El sapkin. Mwet on lun Tempul ac mwet karingin mutunpot lun Tempul elos oayapa orala ma kunalos fal nu ke oakwuk orekla sel Tokosra David ac Solomon, wen natul.
And they kept the watch of their God, and the observance of expiation, and the singing men, and the porters, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.
46 Mutawauk oe in pacl lal Tokosra David ac Asaph, oasr mwet in kol on in kaksak ac sang kulo nu sin God.
For in the days of David and Asaph from the beginning there were chief singers appointed, to praise with canticles, and give thanks to God.
47 In pacl lal Zerubbabel ac oayapa pacl lal Nehemiah, mwet Israel nukewa sang mwe lung ke kais sie len in mwe kasru nu sin mwet on ac mwet karingin mutunpot lun Tempul. Mwet uh sang mwe sang mutal nu sin mwet Levi, ac mwet Levi elos sang ip ma oakwuki tuh in ma lun mwet tol.
And all Israel, in the days of Zorobabel, and in the days of Nehemias gave portions to the singing men, and to the porters, day by day, and they sanctified the Levites, and the Levites sanctified the sons of Aaron.
