1 Chronicles 23
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
1David te patong coeng tih khohnin khaw cum coeng. Te dongah a capa Solomon te Israel soah a manghai sak.
2And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
2Te phoeiah Israel mangpa boeih neh khosoih rhoek khaw, Levi rhoek khaw a coi.
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.
3Te vaengah Levi rhoek te tongpa kum sawmthum lamloh a so hang te a tae tih amih kah hlangmi te a pum la hlang thawng sawmthum neh thawng rhet om.
4Of these, twenty and four thousand were to oversee the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges;
4Te rhoek khuiah BOEIPA im kah bitat aka mawt te thawng kul thawng li om tih rhoiboei rhoek neh laitloek rhoek he thawng rhuk om.
5and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised the LORD 'with the instruments which I made to praise therewith.'
5Thoh tawt rhoek te thawng li, thangthen ham ka saii bangla tumbael neh BOEIPA aka thangthen te thawng li lo.
6And David divided them into courses according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
6David loh amih te boelnah neh a tael. Gershon kah Levi koca rhoek ah Kohath neh Merari.
7Of the Gershonites: Ladan, and Shimei.
7Gershon lamloh Ladan neh Shimei.
8The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
8Ladan koca ah a lucuek te Jehiel tih Zetham neh a pathum te Joel.
9The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers' houses of Ladan.
9Shimei koca rhoek Shelmoth neh Haziel, Haran neh pathum lo. Te rhoek te Ladan napa rhoek khuiah a lu la om uh.
10And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
10Shimei koca rhoek ah Jahath, Zina, Jeush neh Beriah. He rhoek pali he Shimei koca rhoek ni.
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.
11Jahath te a lucuek tih Zizah he a pabae la om. Tedae Jeush neh Beriah tah a ca ping pawh. Te dongah napa pakhat imkhui pakhat bangla cawhkung pakhat la om uh.
12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
12Kohath koca rhoek la Amram, Izhar, Hebron, Uzziel neh pali lo.
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.
13Amram koca ah Aaron neh Moses dae, Aaron tah amah loh a cim kah a cim koek la ciim ham, anih neh anih koca rhoek tah kumhal hil BOEIPA mikhmuh ah aka phum uh la, a taengah aka thotat la, a ming neh kumhal hil aka uem la a hoep.
14But as for Moses the man of God, his sons are named among the tribe of Levi.
14Pathen kah hlang Moses neh anih koca rhoek te Levi koca la a khue uh.
15The sons of Moses: Gershom, and Eliezer.
15Moses koca ah Gershom neh Eliezer.
16The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
16Gershom koca kah boeilu tah Shubael.
17And the sons of Eliezer were: Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had no other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
17Eliezer koca aka om rhoek khuiah Rehabiah he boeilu dae Eliezer te ca a tloe om pawh. Tedae Rehabiah koca rhoek tah a pueh la ping uh.
18The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
18Izhar koca khuiah Shelomith he boeilu la om.
19The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
19Hebron koca ah Jeriah te a cacuek, Amariah te a pabae, Jahaziel a pathum, Jekameam tah a pali.
20The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
20Uzziel koca rhoek ah Maikah te a cacuek tih Isshiah te a pabae.
21The sons of Merari: Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar, and Kish.
21Merari koca ah Mahli neh Mushi, Mahli koca ah Eleazar neh Kish.
22And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their brethren the sons of Kish took them to wife.
22Eleazar a duek vaengah he a taengah ca tongpa a om moenih. Tedae ca huta rhoek bueng om tih amih te a manuca Kish koca rhoek loh a loh uh.
23The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
23Mushi koca rhoek la Mahli, Eder, Jerimoth neh pathum lo.
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.
24He rhoek tah Levi koca rhoek kah a napa rhoek imkhui lamloh a napa boeilu rhoek ni. Tongpa kum kul neh a so hang lamloh BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah ham bitat a saii uh. Amih te a hlangmi neh a ming tarhing la a soep uh.
25For David said: 'The LORD, the God of Israel, hath given rest unto His people, and He dwelleth in Jerusalem for ever;
25David loh, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh a pilnam te a duem sak tih Jerusalem ah kumhal due kho a sak.
26and also the Levites shall no more have need to carry the tabernacle and all the vessels of it for the service thereof.'
26Levi te khaw dungtlungim neh a thothuengnah dongkah a hnopai boeih te a koh ham moenih,” a ti.
27For by the last ordinances of David the sons of Levi were numbered from twenty years old and upward.
27David kah hnukkhueng ol dongkah bangla amih Levi koca rhoek kah hlangmi tah tongpa kum kul neh a so hang lamkah ni a tae.
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;
28Amih kah ngolhmuen ngawn tah BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah khuiah khaw, vongup ah khaw, imkhui ah khaw, hmuencim boeih kah ciimnah dongah khaw, Pathen im thothuengnah bibi dongah khaw Aaron koca rhoek kah a kut a kho la om uh.
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;
29Rhungkung buh dongah khaw, khocang vaidam dongah khaw, vaidamding vaidamrhawm dongah khaw, thiphael dongah khaw, a kae dongah khaw, khoe neh cungnueh boeih dongah khaw om uh.
30and to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even;
30Mincang, mincang ah pai tih BOEIPA aka uem ham neh aka thangthen hamla, hlaem ah khaw te tlam te aka thangthen la om uh.
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;
31A cungkuem dongah BOEIPA taengkah hmueihhlutnah te Sabbath ah khaw, Hlasae ah khaw, tingtunnah dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah laitloeknah bangla a tarhing neh phat a khuen uh.
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.
32Te dongah tingtunnah dap kah a kuek neh hmuencim kah a kuek khaw, BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah dongkah a manuca Aaron koca rhoek kah a kuek khaw a ngaithuen uh.
