World English Bible
1大衛 年紀老邁，日子滿足，就立他兒子 所羅門 作 以色列 的王。
1Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
2大衛 招聚 以色列 的眾首領和祭司 利未 人。
2He gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
3利未 人從三十歲以外的都被數點，他們男丁的數目共有三萬八千；
3The Levites were counted from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.
4其中有二萬四千人管理耶和華殿的事，有六千人作官長和士師，
4David said, “Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of the LORD’s house, six thousand were officers and judges,
5有四千人作守門的，又有四千人用 大衛 所做的樂器頌讚耶和華。
5four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made for giving praise.”
6大衛 將 利未 人 革順 、 哥轄 、 米拉利 的子孫分了班次。
6David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7革順 的子孫有 拉但 和 示每 。
7Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.

10示每 的兒子是 雅哈 、 細拿 、 耶烏施 、 比利亞 共四人。
10The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
11雅哈 是長子， 細撒 是次子。但 耶烏施 和 比利亞 的子孫不多，所以算為一族。
11Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah didn’t have many sons; therefore they became a fathers’ house in one reckoning.
12哥轄 的兒子是 暗蘭 、 以斯哈 、 希伯倫 、 烏薛 共四人。
12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
13暗蘭 的兒子是 亞倫 、 摩西 。 亞倫 和他的子孫分出來，好分別至聖的物，在耶和華面前燒香、事奉他，奉他的名祝福，直到永遠。
13The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons forever, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to him, and to bless in his name forever.
14至於神人 摩西 ，他的子孫名字記在 利未 支派的冊上。
14But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.
15摩西 的兒子是 革舜 和 以利以謝 。
15The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
16革舜 的長子是 細布業 ；
16The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
17以利以謝 的兒子是 利哈比雅 。 以利以謝 沒有別的兒子，但 利哈比雅 的子孫甚多。
17The son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
18以斯哈 的長子是 示羅密 。
18The son of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
19希伯倫 的長子是 耶利雅 ，次子是 亞瑪利亞 ，三子是 雅哈悉 ，四子是 耶加面 。
19The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
20烏薛 的長子是 米迦 ，次子是 耶西雅 。
20The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
21米拉利 的兒子是 抹利 、 母示 。 抹利 的兒子是 以利亞撒 、 基士 。
21The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
22以利亞撒 死了，沒有兒子，只有女兒，他們本族 基士 的兒子娶了她們為妻。
22Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their relatives, the sons of Kish, took them as wives.
23母示 的兒子是 末力 、 以得 、 耶利摩 共三人。
23The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24以上 利未 子孫作族長的，照着男丁的數目，從二十歲以外，都辦耶和華殿的事務。
24These were the sons of Levi after their fathers’ houses, even the heads of the fathers’ houses of those who were counted individually, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the LORD’s house, from twenty years old and upward.
25大衛 說：「耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝已經使他的百姓平安，他永遠住在 耶路撒冷 。
25For David said, “The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people; and he dwells in Jerusalem forever.
26利未 人不必再抬帳幕和其中所用的一切器皿了。」
26Also the Levites will no longer need to carry the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service.”
27照着 大衛 臨終所吩咐的， 利未 人從二十歲以外的都被數點。
27For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were counted, from twenty years old and upward.
28他們的職任是服事 亞倫 的子孫，在耶和華的殿和院子，並屋中辦事，潔淨一切聖物，就是辦上帝殿的事務，
28For their duty was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the LORD’s house—in the courts, in the rooms, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of God’s house;
29並管理陳設餅，素祭的細麵，或無酵薄餅，或用盤烤，或用油調和的物，又管理各樣的升斗尺度；
29for the show bread also, and for the fine flour for a meal offering, whether of unleavened wafers, or of that which is baked in the pan, or of that which is soaked, and for all measurements of quantity and size;
30每日早晚，站立稱謝讚美耶和華，
30and to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise in the evening;
31又在安息日、月朔，並節期，按數照例，將燔祭常常獻給耶和華；
31and to offer all burnt offerings to the LORD on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, in number according to the ordinance concerning them, continually before the LORD;
32又看守會幕和聖所，並守 耶和華 吩咐他們弟兄 亞倫 子孫的，辦耶和華殿的事。
32and that they should keep the duty of the Tent of Meeting, the duty of the holy place, and the duty of the sons of Aaron their brothers for the service of the LORD’s house.
