8Pea ko e kau Livai foki: ko Sesua, mo Pinui, mo Katimieli, mo Selepea, mo Siuta, mo Matania, ʻaia naʻe taki ki he fakafetaʻi, ʻaia mo hono ngaahi kāinga.
9And Becbecia, and Hanni, and their brethren every one in his office.
9Pea mo Pakipukia mo Uni, ko honau kāinga, naʻe hangatonu atu kiate kinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi lakanga.
10And Josue beget Joacim, and Joacim beget Eliasib, and Eliasib beget Joiada,
10¶ Pea naʻe tupu ʻia Sesua ʻa Soaikimi, pea tupu foki ʻia Soaikimi ʻa Iliasipi, pea tupu ʻia Iliasipi ʻa Sihoiata.
11And Joiada beget Jonathan, and Jonathan beget Jeddoa.
11Pea tupu ʻia Sihoiata ʻa Sonatani, pea tupu ʻia Sonatani ʻa Satua.

22The 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.
22¶ Naʻe tohi ʻae kau Livai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Iliasipi, ko Sihoiata, mo Sohanani, mo Satua, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau mātuʻa: mo e kau taulaʻeiki foki, ʻo hoko mo e pule ʻa Talaiasi ko e tangata Peasia.
23The sons of Levi, heads of the families were written in the book of Chronicles, even unto the days of Jonathan the son of Eliasib.
23Ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Livai, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau mātuʻa, naʻe tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe toenga talanoa, ʻo hoko ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Iliasipi.
24Now 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.
24Pea ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau Livai: ko Hasapea, mo Selepea, mo Sesua ko e foha ʻo Katimieli, mo honau kāinga naʻe hangatonu kiate kinautolu, ke fai fakamālō, mo ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Tevita ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua, ko e hangatonu atu ʻae lakanga ki he lakanga ʻe taha.
25Mathania, and Becbecia, Obedia, and Mosollam, Telmon, Accub, were keepers of the gates and of the entrances before the gates.
25Ko e kau leʻo matapā naʻe tauhi ʻi he tulutulu ʻoe ngaahi matapā, ko Matania, mo Pakipukia, mo ʻOpataia, mo Mesulami, mo Talimoni, mo ʻAkupi.
26These 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.
26Naʻe ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Sesua, ko e foha ʻo Sosataki, ʻakinautolu ni, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Nehemaia ko e pule, pea mo Esela ko e taulaʻeiki mo e tangata tohi.
27And 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.
27¶ Pea ʻi he fakatapui ʻoe ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema naʻa nau kumi ʻae kau Livai mei honau ngaahi potu kotoa pē, ke ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki Selūsalema, ke fai ʻae fakatapui ʻi he fiefia lahi, ʻi he ngaahi fakafetaʻi, mo e hiva, mo e ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi ūtete mo e ngaahi haʻape.
28And the sons of the singing men were gathered together out of the plain country about Jerusalem, and out of the villages of Nethuphati,
28Pea naʻe fakakātoa ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau hiva, mei he potu fonua tafangafanga naʻe takatakai ʻi Selūsalema, pea mei he ngaahi potu kakai ʻo Nitofa;
29And from the house of Galgal, and from the countries of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singing men had built themselves villages round about Jerusalem.
29Pea mei he fale ʻo Kilikali foki, pea mei he ngaahi ngoue ʻo Kepa mo ʻAsimaveti: he naʻe langa honau ngaahi potu ke nofo ai ʻe he kau hiva ʻo takatakai ʻi Selūsalema.
30And the priests and the Levites purified, and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
30Pea naʻe fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai, pea fakamaʻa ʻae kakai, mo e ngaahi matapā, mo e ʻā maka.
31And 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.
31Pea ne u toki ʻomi ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Siuta ki ʻolunga ki he ʻā maka, pea fokotuʻu honau vāhenga lahi ʻe ua ʻonautolu ke fai fakafetaʻi, pea naʻe ʻalu honau fakataha ʻe taha ki he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe funga ʻā maka ʻo hanga atu ki he matapā tuʻunga veve:
32And after them went Osaias, and half of the princes of Juda,
32Pea naʻe muimui ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Hosaia, mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe houʻeiki ʻo Siuta,
33And Azarias, Esdras, and Mosollam, Judas, and Benjamin, and Semeia, and Jeremias.
33Mo ʻAsalia, mo Esela, mo Mesulami,
34And 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,
34Mo Siuta, mo Penisimani, mo Simaia, mo Selemaia,
35And 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.
35Mo e niʻihi ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea; ʻio, ʻa Sakalia ko e foha ʻo Sonatani, ko e foha ʻo Simaia, ko e foha ʻo Sakuli, ko e foha ʻo ʻAsafi;
36And 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:
36Mo hono ngaahi kāinga, ko Simaia, mo ʻAsalili, mo Milale, mo Kilale, mo Meai, mo Netanili, mo Siuta, mo Hanani, mo e ngaahi meʻa faiva ʻa Tevita ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua, mo Esela ko e tangata tohi ʻi honau ʻao.
37And 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,
37Pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ʻi he matapā ʻoe mata vai, ʻaia naʻe hangatonu atu kiate kinautolu, ʻi he ngaahi tuʻunga ʻoe kolo ʻa Tevita, ʻi he ʻalu hake ʻoe ʻā maka, ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he fale ʻo Tevita, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he matapā vai ʻi he potu hahake.
38And 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.
38Pea ko hono fakataha ʻe taha ʻokinautolu naʻe fai fakafetaʻi naʻe ʻalu ki he potu naʻe hangatonu mai kiate kinautolu, pea naʻaku muimui atu kiate kinautolu, mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe kakai ʻi he funga ʻā maka, mei he potu mamaʻo atu ʻi he fale māʻolunga ʻoe ngaahi afi tutuʻanga meʻa, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he ʻā maka laulahi;
39And 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.
39Pea mei he potu ki ʻolunga hake ʻi he matapā ʻo ʻIfalemi, pea mei ʻolunga ʻi he matapā motuʻa, pea ki ʻolunga ʻi he matapā ika, pea mei he fale māʻolunga ʻo Hananili, mo e fale māʻolunga ʻo Mea, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he matapā sipi: pea naʻa nau tuʻumaʻu pe ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fakapōpula.
40And the priests, Eliachim, Maasia, Miamin, Michea, Elioenai, Zacharia, Hanania with trumpets,
40Pea naʻe pehē ʻae tuʻu ʻae fakataha ʻe ua naʻe fai fakafetaʻi ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, mo au pea mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe kau pule:
41And 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:
41Pea ko e kau taulaʻeiki eni: ko Iliakimi, mo Maaseia, mo Miniamini, mo Mikaia, mo Ilionei, mo Sakalia, mo Hanania, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa lea;
42And 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.
42Mo Maaseia, mo Simaia, mo ʻEliesa, mo Usi, mo Sihohanani, mo Malikisa, mo ʻIlami, mo Eseli. Pea naʻe hiva kalanga ʻae kau hiva, fakataha mo honau taki muʻa ko Siselahia.
43They 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.
43Pea naʻa nau ʻatu foki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae ngaahi feilaulau lahi, ʻi he fiefia: he naʻe fakafiefiaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he fiefia lahi; pea naʻe fiefia ʻae ngaahi uaifi foki mo e fānau; ko ia naʻe ongo ki he mamaʻo ʻae fiefia ʻa Selūsalema.
44And 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.
44¶ Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻae niʻihi, ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi fale ki he ngaahi koloa, ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻatu, mo e ngaahi ʻuluaki fua, pea ki he ngaahi tāuvao, ke tānaki ki ai mei he ngaahi ngoue ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻae ngaahi ʻinasi ʻoe fono ki he kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai: he naʻe fiefia ʻa Siuta koeʻuhi ko e kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai naʻe ngāue.
45For in the days of David and Asaph from the beginning there were chief singers appointed, to praise with canticles, and give thanks to God.
45Pea ko e kau hiva mo e kau leʻo matapā naʻa nau fakatou tauhi ʻae lakanga ʻo honau ʻOtua, mo e lakanga ʻo honau fakamaʻa ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Tevita, mo Solomone ko hono foha.
46And 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.
46He naʻe ʻi ai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Tevita, mo ʻAsafi, ʻae kau takimuʻa ʻi he kau hiva, mo e ngaahi hiva ʻoe fakaongolelei mo e fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua.

47Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Selupepeli, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Nehemaia, naʻe foaki ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi ʻinasi tokoni ki he kau hiva mo e kau leʻo matapā, taki taha ʻene tokoni ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē: pea naʻa nau vaheʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa tapu maʻae kau Livai; pea naʻe vaheʻi ia ʻe he kau Livai maʻae fānau ʻa ʻElone.
