1So all Israel was enrolled by genealogies; and behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel. And Judah was carried away into exile to Babylon for their unfaithfulness.

1וְכָל־ יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ הִתְיַחְשׂ֔וּ וְהִנָּ֣ם כְּתוּבִ֔ים עַל־ סֵ֖פֶר מַלְכֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וִיהוּדָ֛ה הָגְל֥וּ לְבָבֶ֖ל בְּמַעֲלָֽם׃ ס

2Now the first who lived in their possessions in their cities were Israel, the priests, the Levites and the temple servants.

2וְהַיּוֹשְׁבִים֙ הָרִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בַּאֲחֻזָּתָ֖ם בְּעָרֵיהֶ֑ם יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים הַלְוִיִּ֖ם וְהַנְּתִינִֽים׃

3Some of the sons of Judah, of the sons of Benjamin and of the sons of Ephraim and Manasseh lived in Jerusalem:

3וּבִירוּשָׁלִַ֙ם֙ יָשְׁב֔וּ מִן־ בְּנֵ֥י יְהוּדָ֖ה וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֣י בִנְיָמִ֑ן וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֥י אֶפְרַ֖יִם וּמְנַשֶּֽׁה׃

4Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, from the sons of Perez the son of Judah.

4עוּתַ֨י בֶּן־ עַמִּיה֤וּד בֶּן־ עָמְרִי֙ בֶּן־ אִמְרִ֣י בֶן־ [בנימן־] (בָּנִ֔י) (מִן־) בְּנֵי־ פֶ֖רֶץ בֶּן־ יְהוּדָֽה׃

6From the sons of Zerah were Jeuel and their relatives, 690 of them.

7From the sons of Benjamin were Sallu the son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah,

7וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֖י בִּנְיָמִ֑ן סַלּוּא֙ בֶּן־ מְשֻׁלָּ֔ם בֶּן־ הוֹדַוְיָ֖ה בֶּן־ הַסְּנֻאָֽה׃

8and Ibneiah the son of Jeroham, and Elah the son of Uzzi, the son of Michri, and Meshullam the son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah;

8וְיִבְנְיָה֙ בֶּן־ יְרֹחָ֔ם וְאֵלָ֥ה בֶן־ עֻזִּ֖י בֶּן־ מִכְרִ֑י וּמְשֻׁלָּם֙ בֶּן־ שְׁפַטְיָ֔ה בֶּן־ רְעוּאֵ֖ל בֶּן־ יִבְנִיָּֽה׃

9and their relatives according to their generations, 956. All these were heads of fathers' households according to their fathers' houses.

9וַאֲחֵיהֶם֙ לְתֹ֣לְדוֹתָ֔ם תְּשַׁ֥ע מֵא֖וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֣ים וְשִׁשָּׁ֑ה כָּל־ אֵ֣לֶּה אֲנָשִׁ֔ים רָאשֵׁ֥י אָב֖וֹת לְבֵ֥ית אֲבֹתֵיהֶֽם׃ ס

10From the priests were Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, Jachin,

11and Azariah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the chief officer of the house of God;

11וַעֲזַרְיָ֨ה בֶן־ חִלְקִיָּ֜ה בֶּן־ מְשֻׁלָּ֣ם בֶּן־ צָד֗וֹק בֶּן־ מְרָיוֹת֙ בֶּן־ אֲחִיט֔וּב נְגִ֖יד בֵּ֥ית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ ס

12and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah, and Maasai the son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer;

13and their relatives, heads of their fathers' households, 1,760 very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.

13וַאֲחֵיהֶ֗ם רָאשִׁים֙ לְבֵ֣ית אֲבוֹתָ֔ם אֶ֕לֶף וּשְׁבַ֥ע מֵא֖וֹת וְשִׁשִּׁ֑ים גִּבּ֣וֹרֵי חֵ֔יל מְלֶ֖אכֶת עֲבוֹדַ֥ת בֵּית־ הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃

14Of the Levites were Shemaiah the son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, of the sons of Merari;

14וּמִֽן־ הַלְוִיִּ֑ם שְׁמַֽעְיָ֧ה בֶן־ חַשּׁ֛וּב בֶּן־ עַזְרִיקָ֥ם בֶּן־ חֲשַׁבְיָ֖ה מִן־ בְּנֵ֥י מְרָרִֽי׃

15and Bakbakkar, Heresh and Galal and Mattaniah the son of Mica, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph,

15וּבַקְבַּקַּ֥ר חֶ֖רֶשׁ וְגָלָ֑ל וּמַתַּנְיָה֙ בֶּן־ מִיכָ֔א בֶּן־ זִכְרִ֖י בֶּן־ אָסָֽף׃

16and Obadiah the son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun, and Berechiah the son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.

16וְעֹבַדְיָה֙ בֶּֽן־ שְׁמַֽעְיָ֔ה בֶּן־ גָּלָ֖ל בֶּן־ יְדוּת֑וּן וּבֶרֶכְיָ֤ה בֶן־ אָסָא֙ בֶּן־ אֶלְקָנָ֔ה הַיּוֹשֵׁ֖ב בְּחַצְרֵ֥י נְטוֹפָתִֽי׃

17Now the gatekeepers were Shallum and Akkub and Talmon and Ahiman and their relatives (Shallum the chief

17וְהַשֹּׁעֲרִים֙ שַׁלּ֣וּם וְעַקּ֔וּב וְטַלְמֹ֖ן וַאֲחִימָ֑ן וַאֲחִיהֶ֥ם שַׁלּ֖וּם הָרֹֽאשׁ׃

18being stationed until now at the king's gate to the east). These were the gatekeepers for the camp of the sons of Levi.

18וְֽעַד־ הֵ֔נָּה בְּשַׁ֥עַר הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ מִזְרָ֑חָה הֵ֚מָּה הַשֹּׁ֣עֲרִ֔ים לְמַחֲנ֖וֹת בְּנֵ֥י לֵוִֽי׃

19Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his relatives of his father's house, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the thresholds of the tent; and their fathers had been over the camp of the LORD, keepers of the entrance.

19וְשַׁלּ֣וּם בֶּן־ ק֠וֹרֵא בֶּן־ אֶבְיָסָ֨ף בֶּן־ קֹ֜רַח וְֽאֶחָ֧יו לְבֵית־ אָבִ֣יו הַקָּרְחִ֗ים עַ֚ל מְלֶ֣אכֶת הָעֲבוֹדָ֔ה שֹׁמְרֵ֥י הַסִּפִּ֖ים לָאֹ֑הֶל וַאֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם֙ עַל־ מַחֲנֵ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה שֹׁמְרֵ֖י הַמָּבֽוֹא׃

20Phinehas the son of Eleazar was ruler over them previously, and the LORD was with him.

20וּפִֽינְחָ֣ס בֶּן־ אֶלְעָזָ֗ר נָגִ֨יד הָיָ֧ה עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם לְפָנִ֖ים יְהוָ֥ה ׀ עִמּֽוֹ׃

21Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was gatekeeper of the entrance of the tent of meeting.

21זְכַרְיָה֙ בֶּ֣ן מְשֶֽׁלֶמְיָ֔ה שֹׁעֵ֥ר פֶּ֖תַח לְאֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃

22All these who were chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds were 212. These were enrolled by genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer appointed in their office of trust.

22כֻּלָּ֤ם הַבְּרוּרִים֙ לְשֹׁעֲרִ֣ים בַּסִּפִּ֔ים מָאתַ֖יִם וּשְׁנֵ֣ים עָשָׂ֑ר הֵ֤מָּה בְחַצְרֵיהֶם֙ הִתְיַחְשָׂ֔ם הֵ֣מָּה יִסַּ֥ד דָּוִ֛יד וּשְׁמוּאֵ֥ל הָרֹאֶ֖ה בֶּאֱמוּנָתָֽם׃

23So they and their sons had charge of the gates of the house of the LORD, even the house of the tent, as guards.

23וְהֵ֨ם וּבְנֵיהֶ֜ם עַל־ הַשְּׁעָרִ֧ים לְבֵית־ יְהוָ֛ה לְבֵ֥ית־ הָאֹ֖הֶל לְמִשְׁמָרֽוֹת׃

24The gatekeepers were on the four sides, to the east, west, north and south.

24לְאַרְבַּ֣ע רוּח֔וֹת יִהְי֖וּ הַשֹּׁעֲרִ֑ים מִזְרָ֥ח יָ֖מָּה צָפ֥וֹנָה וָנֶֽגְבָּה׃

25Their relatives in their villages were to come in every seven days from time to time to be with them;

25וַאֲחֵיהֶ֨ם בְּחַצְרֵיהֶ֜ם לָב֨וֹא לְשִׁבְעַ֧ת הַיָּמִ֛ים מֵעֵ֥ת אֶל־ עֵ֖ת עִם־ אֵֽלֶּה׃

26for the four chief gatekeepers who were Levites, were in an office of trust, and were over the chambers and over the treasuries in the house of God.

26כִּ֣י בֶאֱמוּנָ֞ה הֵ֗מָּה אַרְבַּ֙עַת֙ גִּבֹּרֵ֣י הַשֹּׁעֲרִ֔ים הֵ֖ם הַלְוִיִּ֑ם וְהָיוּ֙ עַל־ הַלְּשָׁכ֔וֹת וְעַ֥ל הָאֹצְר֖וֹת בֵּ֥ית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃

27They spent the night around the house of God, because the watch was committed to them; and they were in charge of opening it morning by morning.

27וּסְבִיב֥וֹת בֵּית־ הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים יָלִ֑ינוּ כִּֽי־ עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם מִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת וְהֵ֥ם עַל־ הַמַּפְתֵּ֖חַ וְלַבֹּ֥קֶר לַבֹּֽקֶר׃

28Now some of them had charge of the utensils of service, for they counted them when they brought them in and when they took them out.

28וּמֵהֶ֖ם עַל־ כְּלֵ֣י הָעֲבוֹדָ֑ה כִּֽי־ בְמִסְפָּ֣ר יְבִיא֔וּם וּבְמִסְפָּ֖ר יוֹצִיאֽוּם׃

29Some of them also were appointed over the furniture and over all the utensils of the sanctuary and over the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the frankincense and the spices.

29וּמֵהֶ֗ם מְמֻנִּים֙ עַל־ הַכֵּלִ֔ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־ כְּלֵ֣י הַקֹּ֑דֶשׁ וְעַל־ הַסֹּ֙לֶת֙ וְהַיַּ֣יִן וְהַשֶּׁ֔מֶן וְהַלְּבוֹנָ֖ה וְהַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃

30Some of the sons of the priests prepared the mixing of the spices.

30וּמִן־ בְּנֵי֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים רֹקְחֵ֥י הַמִּרְקַ֖חַת לַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃

31Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the responsibility over the things which were baked in pans.

31וּמַתִּתְיָה֙ מִן־ הַלְוִיִּ֔ם ה֥וּא הַבְּכ֖וֹר לְשַׁלֻּ֣ם הַקָּרְחִ֑י בֶּאֱמוּנָ֕ה עַ֖ל מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה הַחֲבִתִּֽים׃

32Some of their relatives of the sons of the Kohathites were over the showbread to prepare it every sabbath.

32וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֧י הַקְּהָתִ֛י מִן־ אֲחֵיהֶ֖ם עַל־ לֶ֣חֶם הַֽמַּעֲרָ֑כֶת לְהָכִ֖ין שַׁבַּ֥ת שַׁבָּֽת׃ ס

33Now these are the singers, heads of fathers' households of the Levites, who lived in the chambers of the temple free from other service; for they were engaged in their work day and night.

33וְאֵ֣לֶּה הַ֠מְשֹׁרְרִים רָאשֵׁ֨י אָב֧וֹת לַלְוִיִּ֛ם בַּלְּשָׁכֹ֖ת [פטירים] (פְּטוּרִ֑ים) כִּֽי־ יוֹמָ֥ם וָלַ֛יְלָה עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃

34These were heads of fathers' households of the Levites according to their generations, chief men, who lived in Jerusalem.

34אֵלֶּה֩ רָאשֵׁ֨י הָאָב֧וֹת לַלְוִיִּ֛ם לְתֹלְדוֹתָ֖ם רָאשִׁ֑ים אֵ֖לֶּה יָשְׁב֥וּ בִירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ פ

35In Gibeon Jeiel the father of Gibeon lived, and his wife's name was Maacah,

35וּבְגִבְע֛וֹן יָשְׁב֥וּ אֲבִֽי־ גִבְע֖וֹן [יעואל] (יְעִיאֵ֑ל) וְשֵׁ֥ם אִשְׁתּ֖וֹ מַעֲכָֽה׃

36and his firstborn son was Abdon, then Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab,

36וּבְנ֥וֹ הַבְּכ֖וֹר עַבְדּ֑וֹן וְצ֣וּר וְקִ֔ישׁ וּבַ֥עַל וְנֵ֖ר וְנָדָֽב׃

37Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah and Mikloth.

37וּגְד֣וֹר וְאַחְי֔וֹ וּזְכַרְיָ֖ה וּמִקְלֽוֹת׃

38Mikloth became the father of Shimeam. And they also lived with their relatives in Jerusalem opposite their other relatives.

38וּמִקְל֖וֹת הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ שִׁמְאָ֑ם וְאַף־ הֵ֗ם נֶ֧גֶד אֲחֵיהֶ֛ם יָשְׁב֥וּ בִירֽוּשָׁלִַ֖ם עִם־ אֲחֵיהֶֽם׃ ס

39Ner became the father of Kish, and Kish became the father of Saul, and Saul became the father of Jonathan, Malchi-shua, Abinadab and Eshbaal.

39וְנֵר֙ הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ קִ֔ישׁ וְקִ֖ישׁ הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ שָׁא֑וּל וְשָׁא֗וּל הוֹלִ֤יד אֶת־ יְהֽוֹנָתָן֙ וְאֶת־ מַלְכִּי־ שׁ֔וּעַ וְאֶת־ אֲבִינָדָ֖ב וְאֶת־ אֶשְׁבָּֽעַל׃

40The son of Jonathan was Merib-baal; and Merib-baal became the father of Micah.

40וּבֶן־ יְהוֹנָתָ֖ן מְרִ֣יב בָּ֑עַל וּמְרִי־ בַ֖עַל הוֹלִ֥יד אֶת־ מִיכָֽה׃

41The sons of Micah were Pithon, Melech, Tahrea and Ahaz.

41וּבְנֵ֖י מִיכָ֑ה פִּית֥וֹן וָמֶ֖לֶךְ וְתַחְרֵֽעַ׃

42Ahaz became the father of Jarah, and Jarah became the father of Alemeth, Azmaveth and Zimri; and Zimri became the father of Moza,

42וְאָחָז֙ הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ יַעְרָ֔ה וְיַעְרָ֗ה הוֹלִ֛יד אֶת־ עָלֶ֥מֶת וְאֶת־ עַזְמָ֖וֶת וְאֶת־ זִמְרִ֑י וְזִמְרִ֖י הוֹלִ֥יד אֶת־ מוֹצָֽא׃

43and Moza became the father of Binea and Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son.

43וּמוֹצָ֖א הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ בִּנְעָ֑א וּרְפָיָ֥ה בְנ֛וֹ אֶלְעָשָׂ֥ה בְנ֖וֹ אָצֵ֥ל בְּנֽוֹ׃

44Azel had six sons whose names are these: Azrikam, Bocheru and Ishmael and Sheariah and Obadiah and Hanan. These were the sons of Azel.

44וּלְאָצֵל֮ שִׁשָּׁ֣ה בָנִים֒ וְאֵ֣לֶּה שְׁמוֹתָ֗ם עַזְרִיקָ֥ם ׀ בֹּ֙כְרוּ֙ וְיִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל וּשְׁעַרְיָ֔ה וְעֹבַדְיָ֖ה וְחָנָ֑ן אֵ֖לֶּה בְּנֵ֥י אָצַֽל׃ פ
