1 Un Ārona dēliem bija šādi viņu iedalījumi. Ārona dēli bija Nadabs, Abijs, Ēleāzars un Ītamārs. 2 Bet Nadabs un Abijs nomira pirms sava tēva, un viņiem nebija dēlu, bet Ēleāzars un Ītamārs kļuva par priesteriem. 3 Un Dāvids tos nodalīja: Cadoku, Ēleāzara dēlu, un Ahimēleku, Ītamāra dēlu, pēc viņu kalpošanas amatiem. 4 Un atrada, ka starp Ēleāzara dēliem ir vairāk galveno nekā starp Ītamāra dēliem, un tie tika iedalīti: no Ēleāzara dēliem sešpadsmit tēvu namu galvenie, bet no Ītamāra dēliem astoņi. 5 Un viņš tos iedalīja, kā vienus, tā otrus, meslus metot, jo tiklab starp Ēleāzara, kā arī starp Ītamāra pēcnācējiem bija augstākie svētnīcā un augstākie Dieva priekšā; 6 un Šemaja, Netaneēla dēls, rakstvedis levītu starpā, pierakstīja viņus ķēniņa un augstāko priekšnieku, un priestera Cadoka un Ahimēleka, Abjatāra dēla, un priesteru un levītu tēvu namu galveno klātbūtnē: viens tēvu nams tika ņemts no Ēleāzara un viens no Ītamāra. 7 Un pirmā meslu zīme krita Jojaribam un otrā Jedajam, 8 trešā Harimam, ceturtā Seorimam, 9 piektā Malhijam, sestā Mijamīnam, 10 septītā Hakocam, astotā Abijam, 11 devītā Ješuam, desmitā Šehanjam. 12 Vienpadsmitā Ēljašibam, divpadsmitā Jakimam, 13 trīspadsmitā Hupam, četrpadsmitā Ješebabam, 14 piecpadsmitā Bilgam, sešpadsmitā Imeram, 15 septiņpadsmitā Heziram, astoņpadsmitā Hapicēcam, 16 deviņpadsmitā Petahjam, divdesmitā Jeheskēlam, 17 divdesmit pirmā Jakīnam, divdesmit otrā Gamulam, 18 divdesmit trešā Delajam, divdesmit ceturtā Maāsjam. 19 Šī bija viņu kalpošanas kārtība, kādā viņi nāca Tā Kunga namā, saskaņā ar likumu, ko Ārons, viņu tēvs, ar Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, pavēli bija noteicis. 20 Bet no atlikušajiem Levija dēliem - no Amrāma dēliem bija Šubaēls, no Šubaēla dēliem Jehdeja, 21 no Rehabjas dēliem bija Jišija, pirmais. 22 No Jihara dēliem bija Šelomots, no Šelomota dēliem Jahats. 23 Un no Hebrona dēliem bija: Jerija, pirmais, Amarja, otrs, Jahaziēls, trešais, Jekameāms, ceturtais. 24 Usiēla dēls bija Miha; no Mihas dēliem Šamīrs. 25 Mihas brālis bija Jišija; no Jišijas dēliem Zaharja. 26 Merārija dēli bija Mahlijs un Mušijs, kā arī viņa dēla Jaāsijas pēcnācēji. 27 Merārija mazdēli no viņa dēla Usijas bija Šohāms, Zakurs un Ibrijs. 28 No Mahlija: Ēleāzars, bet viņam nebija dēlu, un Kīšs. 29 No Kīša: Kīša dēli, Jerahmeēls. 30 Un Mušija dēli bija Mahlijs, Ēders un Jerimots. Šie bija levītu dēli pēc saviem tēvu namiem. 31 Arī viņu dēļ tika mesti mesli, gluži tāpat kā viņu brāļu Ārona dēlu dēļ, ķēniņa Dāvida, Cadoka un Ahimēleka, priesteru un levītu tēvu namu galveno klātbūtnē, kā tēvu nama galvenajam, tāpat arī jaunākajam brālim.
1 Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office. 3 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service. 4 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and thus were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers. 5 Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar. 6 And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and before the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar. 7 Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah, 8 The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim, 9 The fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin, 10 The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah, 11 The ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah, 12 The eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim, 13 The thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab, 14 The fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer, 15 The seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Aphses, 16 The nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezekel, 17 The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul, 18 The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah. 19 These were the orderings of them in their service to come into the house of the LORD, according to their manner, under Aaron their father, as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
20 ¶ And the rest of the sons of Levi were these: Of the sons of Amram; Shubael: of the sons of Shubael; Jehdeiah. 21 Concerning Rehabiah: of the sons of Rehabiah, the first was Isshiah. 22 Of the Izharites; Shelomoth: of the sons of Shelomoth; Jahath. 23 And the sons of Hebron; Jeriah the first , Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, Jekameam the fourth. 24 Of the sons of Uzziel; Michah: of the sons of Michah; Shamir. 25 The brother of Michah was Isshiah: of the sons of Isshiah; Zechariah. 26 The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi: the sons of Jaaziah; Beno.
27 ¶ The sons of Merari by Jaaziah; Beno, and Shoham, and Zaccur, and Ibri. 28 Of Mahli came Eleazar, who had no sons. 29 Concerning Kish: the son of Kish was Jerahmeel. 30 The sons also of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites after the house of their fathers. 31 These likewise cast lots over against their brethren the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal fathers over against their younger brethren.
