Old Testament
1 So when David was old and full of days, he made his son Solomon king over Israel.
1 ΚΑΙ Δαυὶδ πρεσβύτης καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Σαλωμὼν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
2 And he gathered together all the leaders of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
2 καὶ συνήγαγε τοὺς πάντας ἄρχοντας Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ τοὺς Λευίτας.
3 Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and above; and the number of individual males was thirty-eight thousand.
3 καὶ ἠρίθμησαν οἱ Λευῖται ἀπὸ τριακονταετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω, καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ ἀριθμὸς αὐτῶν κατὰ κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν εἰς ἄνδρας τριάκοντα καὶ ὀκτὼ χιλιάδας.
4 Of these, twenty-four thousand were to look after the work of the house of the LORD, six thousand were officers and judges,
4 ἀπὸ τῶν ἐργοδιωκτῶν ἐπὶ τὰ ἔργα οἴκου Κυρίου εἰκοσιτέσσαρες χιλιάδες καὶ γραμματεῖς καὶ κριταὶ ἑξακισχίλιοι
5 four thousand were gatekeepers, and four thousand praised the LORD with musical instruments, “which I made,” said David, “for giving praise.”
5 καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες πυλωροὶ καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες αἰνοῦντες τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν ὀργάνοις, οἷς ἐποίησε τοῦ αἰνεῖν τῷ Κυρίῳ.
6 Also David separated them into divisions among the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
6 καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοὺς Δαυὶδ ἐφημερίας τοῖς υἱοῖς Λευί, τῷ Γεδσών, Καὰθ καὶ Μεραρί.
7 Of the Gershonites: Laadan and Shimei.
7 καὶ τῷ Γεδσών· Ἐδὰν καὶ Σεμεΐ.
8 The sons of Laadan: the first Jehiel, then Zetham and Joel—three in all.
8 υἱοὶ τῷ Ἐδάν· ἄρχων Ἰεϊὴλ καὶ Ζηθὰν καὶ Ἰωήλ, τρεῖς.
9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, Haziel, and Haran—three in all. These were the heads of the fathers’ houses of Laadan.
9 υἱοὶ Σεμεΐ· Σαλωμίθ, Ἰεϊὴλ καὶ Δάν, τρεῖς. οὗτοι ἄρχοντες πατριῶν τῶν Ἐδάν.
10 And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These were the four sons of Shimei.
10 καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Σεμεΐ· Ἰὲθ καὶ Ζιζὰ καὶ Ἰωὰς καὶ Βεριά· οὗτοι υἱοὶ Σεμεΐ τέσσαρες.
11 Jahath was the first and Zizah the second. But Jeush and Beriah did not have many sons; therefore they were assigned as one father’s house.
11 καὶ ἦν Ἰὲθ ὁ ἄρχων καὶ Ζιζὰ ὁ δεύτερος· καὶ Ἰωὰς καὶ Βεριὰ οὐκ ἐπλήθυναν υἱοὺς καὶ ἐγένοντο εἰς οἶκον πατριᾶς εἰς ἐπίσκεψιν μίαν.
12 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel—four in all.
12 υἱοὶ Καάθ· Ἀμβράμ, Ἰσαάρ, Χεβρών, Ὀζιήλ, τέσσαρες.
13 The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was set apart, he and his sons forever, that he should sanctify the most holy things, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to Him, and to give the blessing in His name forever.
13 υἱοὶ 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.
14 Now the sons of Moses the man of God were reckoned to the tribe of Levi.
14 καὶ Μωυσῆς ἄνθρωπος τοῦ Θεοῦ, υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐκλήθησαν εἰς φυλὴν τοῦ Λευί.
15 The sons of Moses were Gershon and Eliezer.
15 υἱοὶ Μωυσῆ· Γηρσὰμ καὶ Ἐλιέζερ.
16 Of the sons of Gershon, Shebuel was the first.
16 υἱοὶ Γηρσάμ· Σουβαὴλ ὁ ἄρχων.
17 Of the descendants of Eliezer, Rehabiah was the first. And Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
17 καὶ ἦσαν υἱοὶ τῷ Ἐλιέζερ· Ραβιὰ ὁ ἄρχων· καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν τῷ Ἐλιέζερ υἱοὶ ἕτεροι. καὶ υἱοὶ Ραβιὰ ηὐξήθησαν εἰς ὕψος.
18 Of the sons of Izhar, Shelomith was the first.
18 υἱοὶ Ἰσαάρ· Σαλωμὼθ ὁ ἄρχων.
19 Of the sons of Hebron, Jeriah was the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
19 υἱοὶ Χεβρών· Ἱεριὰ ὁ ἄρχων, Ἀμαδιὰ ὁ δεύτερος, Ἱεζιὴλ ὁ τρίτος, Ἰεκεμίας ὁ τέταρτος.
20 Of the sons of Uzziel, Michah was the first and Jesshiah the second.
20 υἱοὶ Ὀζιήλ· Μιχὰ ὁ ἄρχων καὶ Ἰσιὰ ὁ δεύτερος.
21 The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli were Eleazar and Kish.
21 υἱοὶ Μεραρί· Μοολὶ καὶ Μουσί. υἱοὶ Μοολί· Ἐλεάζαρ καὶ Κίς.
22 And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but only daughters; and their brethren, the sons of Kish, took them as wives.
22 καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἐλεάζαρ, καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν αὐτῷ υἱοί, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ θυγατέρες, καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὰς υἱοὶ Κὶς ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν.
23 The sons of Mushi were Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth—three in all.
23 υἱοὶ Μουσί· Μοολὶ καὶ Ἐδὲρ καὶ Ἰαριμώθ, τρεῖς.
24 These were the sons of Levi by their fathers’ houses—the heads of the fathers’ houses as they were counted individually by the number of their names, who did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from the age of twenty years and above.
24 οὗτοι 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.
25 For David said, “The LORD God of Israel has given rest to His people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem forever”;
25 ὅτι εἶπε Δαυίδ· κατέπαυσε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ καὶ κατεσκήνωσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἕως αἰῶνος.
26 and also to the Levites, “They shall no longer carry the tabernacle, or any of the articles for its service.”
26 καὶ οἱ Λευῖται οὐκ ἦσαν αἴροντες τὴν σκηνὴν καὶ τὰ πάντα σκεύη αὐτῆς εἰς τὴν λειτουργίαν αὐτῆς·
27 For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from twenty years old and above;
27 ὅτι ἐν τοῖς λόγοις Δαυὶδ τοῖς ἐσχάτοις ἐστὶν ὁ ἀριθμὸς υἱῶν Λευὶ ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω·
28 because their duty was to help the sons of Aaron in the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts and in the chambers, in the purifying of all holy things and the work of the service of the house of God,
28 ὅτι 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
29 both with the showbread and the fine flour for the grain offering, with the unleavened cakes and what is baked in the pan, with what is mixed and with all kinds of measures and sizes;
29 καὶ 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
30 to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at evening;
30 καὶ τοῦ στῆναι πρωΐ τοῦ αἰνεῖν καὶ ἐξομολογεῖσθαι τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ οὕτω τὸ ἑσπέρας
31 and at every presentation of a burnt offering to the LORD on the Sabbaths and on the New Moons and on the set feasts, by number according to the ordinance governing them, regularly before the LORD;
31 καὶ 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.
32 and that they should attend to the needs of the tabernacle of meeting, the needs of the holy place, and the needs of the sons of Aaron their brethren in the work of the house of the LORD.
32 καὶ φυλάξουσι τὰς φυλακὰς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ τὴν φυλακὴν τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ τὰς φυλακὰς υἱῶν Ἀαρὼν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν τοῦ λειτουργεῖν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.
