1 Chronicles 23
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
1ΚΑΙ Δαυὶδ πρεσβύτης καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Σαλωμὼν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
2And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
2καὶ συνήγαγε τοὺς πάντας ἄρχοντας Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ τοὺς Λευίτας.
3And the Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.
3καὶ ἠρίθμησαν οἱ Λευῖται ἀπὸ τριακονταετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω, καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ ἀριθμὸς αὐτῶν κατὰ κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν εἰς ἄνδρας τριάκοντα καὶ ὀκτὼ χιλιάδας.
4Of these, twenty and four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges;
4ἀπὸ τῶν ἐργοδιωκτῶν ἐπὶ τὰ ἔργα οἴκου Κυρίου εἰκοσιτέσσαρες χιλιάδες καὶ γραμματεῖς καὶ κριταὶ ἑξακισχίλιοι
5and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised the LORD 'with the instruments which I made to praise therewith.'
5καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες πυλωροὶ καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες αἰνοῦντες τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν ὀργάνοις, οἷς ἐποίησε τοῦ αἰνεῖν τῷ Κυρίῳ.
6And David divided them into courses according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
6καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοὺς Δαυὶδ ἐφημερίας τοῖς υἱοῖς Λευί, τῷ Γεδσών, Καὰθ καὶ Μεραρί.
7Of the Gershonites: Ladan, and Shimei.
7καὶ τῷ Γεδσών· Ἐδὰν καὶ Σεμεΐ.
8The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
8υἱοὶ τῷ Ἐδάν· ἄρχων Ἰεϊὴλ καὶ Ζηθὰν καὶ Ἰωήλ, τρεῖς.
9The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers' houses of Ladan.
9υἱοὶ Σεμεΐ· Σαλωμίθ, Ἰεϊὴλ καὶ Δάν, τρεῖς. οὗτοι ἄρχοντες πατριῶν τῶν Ἐδάν.
10And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
10καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Σεμεΐ· Ἰὲθ καὶ Ζιζὰ καὶ Ἰωὰς καὶ Βεριά· οὗτοι υἱοὶ Σεμεΐ τέσσαρες.
11And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they became a fathers' house in one reckoning.
11καὶ ἦν Ἰὲθ ὁ ἄρχων καὶ Ζιζὰ ὁ δεύτερος· καὶ Ἰωὰς καὶ Βεριὰ οὐκ ἐπλήθυναν υἱοὺς καὶ ἐγένοντο εἰς οἶκον πατριᾶς εἰς ἐπίσκεψιν μίαν.
12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
12υἱοὶ Καάθ· Ἀμβράμ, Ἰσαάρ, Χεβρών, Ὀζιήλ, τέσσαρες.
13The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated, that he should be sanctified as most holy, he and his sons for ever, to offer before the LORD, to minister unto Him, and to bless in His name for ever.
13υἱοὶ Ἀμβράμ, Ἀαρὼν καὶ Μωυσῆς. καὶ διεστάλη Ἀαρὼν τοῦ ἁγιασθῆναι ἅγια ἁγίων, αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος, τοῦ θυμιᾶν ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου, λειτουργεῖν καὶ ἐπεύχεσθαι ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος.
14But as for Moses the man of God, his sons are named among the tribe of Levi.
14καὶ Μωυσῆς ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ, υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐκλήθησαν εἰς φυλὴν τοῦ Λευί.
15The sons of Moses: Gershom, and Eliezer.
15υἱοὶ Μωυσῆ· Γηρσὰμ καὶ Ἐλιέζερ.
16The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
16υἱοὶ Γηρσάμ· Σουβαὴλ ὁ ἄρχων.
17And the sons of Eliezer were: Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had no other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
17καὶ ἦσαν υἱοὶ τῷ Ἐλιέζερ· Ραβιὰ ὁ ἄρχων· καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν τῷ Ἐλιέζερ υἱοὶ ἕτεροι. καὶ υἱοὶ Ραβιὰ ηὐξήθησαν εἰς ὕψος.
18The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
18υἱοὶ Ἰσαάρ· Σαλωμὼθ ὁ ἄρχων.
19The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
19υἱοὶ Χεβρών· Ἱεριὰ ὁ ἄρχων, Ἀμαδιὰ ὁ δεύτερος, Ἱεζιὴλ ὁ τρίτος, Ἰεκεμίας ὁ τέταρτος.
20The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
20υἱοὶ Ὀζιήλ· Μιχὰ ὁ ἄρχων καὶ Ἰσιὰ ὁ δεύτερος.
21The sons of Merari: Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar, and Kish.
21υἱοὶ Μεραρί· Μοολὶ καὶ Μουσί. υἱοὶ Μοολί· Ἐλεάζαρ καὶ Κίς.
22And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their brethren the sons of Kish took them to wife.
22καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἐλεάζαρ, καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν αὐτῷ υἱοί, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ θυγατέρες, καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὰς υἱοὶ Κὶς ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν.
23The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
23υἱοὶ Μουσί· Μοολὶ καὶ Ἐδὲρ καὶ Ἰαριμώθ, τρεῖς.
24These were the sons of Levi after their fathers' houses, even the heads of the fathers' houses, according to their muster, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from twenty years old and upward.
24οὗτοι υἱοὶ Λευὶ κατ᾿ οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν, ἄρχοντες τῶν πατριῶν αὐτῶν κατὰ τὴν ἐπίσκεψιν αὐτῶν, κατὰ τὸν ἀριθμὸν ὀνομάτων αὐτῶν, κατὰ κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν, ποιοῦντες τὰ ἔργα λειτουργίας οἴκου Κυρίου ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω.
25For David said: 'The LORD, the God of Israel, hath given rest unto His people, and He dwelleth in Jerusalem for ever;
25ὅτι εἶπε Δαυίδ· κατέπαυσε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ καὶ κατεσκήνωσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἕως αἰῶνος.
26and also the Levites shall no more have need to carry the tabernacle and all the vessels of it for the service thereof.'
26καὶ οἱ Λευῖται οὐκ ἦσαν αἴροντες τὴν σκηνὴν καὶ τὰ πάντα σκεύη αὐτῆς εἰς τὴν λειτουργίαν αὐτῆς·
27For by the last ordinances of David the sons of Levi were numbered from twenty years old and upward.
27ὅτι ἐν τοῖς λόγοις Δαυὶδ τοῖς ἐσχάτοις ἐστὶν ὁ ἀριθμὸς υἱῶν Λευὶ ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω·
28For their station was at the side of the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of the house of God;
28ὅτι ἔστησεν αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ χειρὶ Ἀαρὼν τοῦ λειτουργεῖν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου ἐπὶ τὰς αὐλὰς καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ παστοφόρια καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν καθαρισμὸν τῶν πάντων ἁγίων καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ἔργα λειτουργίας οἴκου τοῦ Θεοῦ
29for the showbread also, and for the fine flour for a meal-offering, whether of unleavened wafers, or of that which is baked on the griddle, or of that which is soaked, and for all manner of measure and size;
29καὶ εἰς τοὺς ἄρτους τῆς προθέσεως καὶ εἰς τὴν σεμίδαλιν τῆς θυσίας καὶ εἰς τὰ λάγανα τὰ ἄζυμα καὶ εἰς τήγανον καὶ εἰς τὴν πεφυραμένην καὶ εἰς πᾶν μέτρον
30and to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even;
30καὶ τοῦ στῆναι πρωΐ τοῦ αἰνεῖν καὶ ἐξομολογεῖσθαι τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ οὕτω τὸ ἑσπέρας
31and to offer all burnt-offerings unto the LORD, on the sabbaths, on the new moons, and in the appointed seasons, in number according to the ordinance concerning them, continually, before the LORD;
31καὶ ἐπὶ πάντων τῶν ἀναφερομένων ὁλοκαυτωμάτων τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν τοῖς σαββάτοις καὶ ἐν ταῖς νουμηνίαις καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς, κατὰ ἀριθμόν, κατὰ τὴν κρίσιν ἐπ᾿ αὐτοῖς διαπαντὸς τῷ Κυρίῳ.
32and that they should keep the charge of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, for the service of the house of the LORD.
32καὶ φυλάξουσι τὰς φυλακὰς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ τὴν φυλακὴν τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ τὰς φυλακὰς υἱῶν Ἀαρὼν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν τοῦ λειτουργεῖν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.
