1All Israel was listed in the genealogies recorded in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah. They were taken captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness.1וְכָל־ יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ הִתְיַחְשׂ֔וּ וְהִנָּ֣ם כְּתוּבִ֔ים עַל־ סֵ֖פֶר מַלְכֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וִיהוּדָ֛ה הָגְל֥וּ לְבָבֶ֖ל בְּמַעֲלָֽם׃ ס
2Now the first to resettle on their own property in their own towns were some Israelites, priests, Levites and temple servants.2וְהַיּוֹשְׁבִים֙ הָרִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בַּאֲחֻזָּתָ֖ם בְּעָרֵיהֶ֑ם יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים הַלְוִיִּ֖ם וְהַנְּתִינִֽים׃
3Those from Judah, from Benjamin, and from Ephraim and Manasseh who lived in Jerusalem were:3וּבִירוּשָׁלִַ֙ם֙ יָשְׁב֔וּ מִן־ בְּנֵ֥י יְהוּדָ֖ה וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֣י בִנְיָמִ֑ן וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֥י אֶפְרַ֖יִם וּמְנַשֶּֽׁה׃
4Uthai son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, a descendant of Perez son of Judah.4עוּתַ֨י בֶּן־ עַמִּיה֤וּד בֶּן־ עָמְרִי֙ בֶּן־ אִמְרִ֣י בֶן־ [בנימן־] (בָּנִ֔י) (מִן־) בְּנֵי־ פֶ֖רֶץ בֶּן־ יְהוּדָֽה׃
5Of the Shelanites: Asaiah the firstborn and his sons.5וּמִן־ הַשִּׁ֣ילוֹנִ֔י עֲשָׂיָ֥ה הַבְּכ֖וֹר וּבָנָֽיו׃
6Of the Zerahites: Jeuel. The people from Judah numbered 690.6וּמִן־ בְּנֵי־ זֶ֖רַח יְעוּאֵ֑ל וַאֲחֵיהֶ֖ם שֵׁשׁ־ מֵא֥וֹת וְתִשְׁעִֽים׃
7Of the Benjamites: Sallu son of Meshullam, the son of Hodaviah, the son of Hassenuah;7וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֖י בִּנְיָמִ֑ן סַלּוּא֙ בֶּן־ מְשֻׁלָּ֔ם בֶּן־ הוֹדַוְיָ֖ה בֶּן־ הַסְּנֻאָֽה׃
8Ibneiah son of Jeroham; Elah son of Uzzi, the son of Mikri; and Meshullam 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׃
9The people from Benjamin, as listed in their genealogy, numbered 956. All these men were heads of their families.9וַאֲחֵיהֶם֙ לְתֹ֣לְדוֹתָ֔ם תְּשַׁ֥ע מֵא֖וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֣ים וְשִׁשָּׁ֑ה כָּל־ אֵ֣לֶּה אֲנָשִׁ֔ים רָאשֵׁ֥י אָב֖וֹת לְבֵ֥ית אֲבֹתֵיהֶֽם׃ ס
10Of the priests: Jedaiah; Jehoiarib; Jakin;10וּמִן־ הַֽכֹּהֲנִ֑ים יְדַֽעְיָ֥ה וִיהוֹיָרִ֖יב וְיָכִֽין׃
11Azariah son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, the official in charge of the house of God;11וַעֲזַרְיָ֨ה בֶן־ חִלְקִיָּ֜ה בֶּן־ מְשֻׁלָּ֣ם בֶּן־ צָד֗וֹק בֶּן־ מְרָיוֹת֙ בֶּן־ אֲחִיט֔וּב נְגִ֖יד בֵּ֥ית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ ס
12Adaiah son of Jeroham, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malkijah; and Maasai son of Adiel, the son of Jahzerah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Meshillemith, the son of Immer.12וַעֲדָיָה֙ בֶּן־ יְרֹחָ֔ם בֶּן־ פַּשְׁח֖וּר בֶּן־ מַלְכִּיָּ֑ה וּמַעְשַׂ֨י בֶּן־ עֲדִיאֵ֧ל בֶּן־ יַחְזֵ֛רָה בֶּן־ מְשֻׁלָּ֥ם בֶּן־ מְשִׁלֵּמִ֖ית בֶּן־ אִמֵּֽר׃
13The priests, who were heads of families, numbered 1,760. They were able men, responsible for ministering in the house of God.13וַאֲחֵיהֶ֗ם רָאשִׁים֙ לְבֵ֣ית אֲבוֹתָ֔ם אֶ֕לֶף וּשְׁבַ֥ע מֵא֖וֹת וְשִׁשִּׁ֑ים גִּבּ֣וֹרֵי חֵ֔יל מְלֶ֖אכֶת עֲבוֹדַ֥ת בֵּית־ הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃
14Of the Levites: Shemaiah son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, a Merarite;14וּמִֽן־ הַלְוִיִּ֑ם שְׁמַֽעְיָ֧ה בֶן־ חַשּׁ֛וּב בֶּן־ עַזְרִיקָ֥ם בֶּן־ חֲשַׁבְיָ֖ה מִן־ בְּנֵ֥י מְרָרִֽי׃
15Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal and Mattaniah son of Mika, the son of Zikri, the son of Asaph;15וּבַקְבַּקַּ֥ר חֶ֖רֶשׁ וְגָלָ֑ל וּמַתַּנְיָה֙ בֶּן־ מִיכָ֔א בֶּן־ זִכְרִ֖י בֶּן־ אָסָֽף׃
16Obadiah son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berekiah 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׃
17The gatekeepers: Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman and their fellow Levites, Shallum their chief17וְהַשֹּׁעֲרִים֙ שַׁלּ֣וּם וְעַקּ֔וּב וְטַלְמֹ֖ן וַאֲחִימָ֑ן וַאֲחִיהֶ֥ם שַׁלּ֖וּם הָרֹֽאשׁ׃
18being stationed at the King's Gate on the east, up to the present time. These were the gatekeepers belonging to the camp of the Levites.18וְֽעַד־ הֵ֔נָּה בְּשַׁ֥עַר הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ מִזְרָ֑חָה הֵ֚מָּה הַשֹּׁ֣עֲרִ֔ים לְמַחֲנ֖וֹת בְּנֵ֥י לֵוִֽי׃
19Shallum son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his fellow gatekeepers from his family (the Korahites) were responsible for guarding the thresholds of the tent just as their ancestors had been responsible for guarding the entrance to the dwelling of the LORD.19וְשַׁלּ֣וּם בֶּן־ ק֠וֹרֵא בֶּן־ אֶבְיָסָ֨ף בֶּן־ קֹ֜רַח וְֽאֶחָ֧יו לְבֵית־ אָבִ֣יו הַקָּרְחִ֗ים עַ֚ל מְלֶ֣אכֶת הָעֲבוֹדָ֔ה שֹׁמְרֵ֥י הַסִּפִּ֖ים לָאֹ֑הֶל וַאֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם֙ עַל־ מַחֲנֵ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה שֹׁמְרֵ֖י הַמָּבֽוֹא׃
20In earlier times Phinehas son of Eleazar was the official in charge of the gatekeepers, and the LORD was with him.20וּפִֽינְחָ֣ס בֶּן־ אֶלְעָזָ֗ר נָגִ֨יד הָיָ֧ה עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם לְפָנִ֖ים יְהוָ֥ה ׀ עִמּֽוֹ׃
21Zechariah son of Meshelemiah was the gatekeeper at the entrance to the tent of meeting.21זְכַרְיָה֙ בֶּ֣ן מְשֶֽׁלֶמְיָ֔ה שֹׁעֵ֥ר פֶּ֖תַח לְאֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃
22Altogether, those chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds numbered 212. They were registered by genealogy in their villages. The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer.22כֻּלָּ֤ם הַבְּרוּרִים֙ לְשֹׁעֲרִ֣ים בַּסִּפִּ֔ים מָאתַ֖יִם וּשְׁנֵ֣ים עָשָׂ֑ר הֵ֤מָּה בְחַצְרֵיהֶם֙ הִתְיַחְשָׂ֔ם הֵ֣מָּה יִסַּ֥ד דָּוִ֛יד וּשְׁמוּאֵ֥ל הָרֹאֶ֖ה בֶּאֱמוּנָתָֽם׃
23They and their descendants were in charge of guarding the gates of the house of the LORD--the house called the tent of meeting.23וְהֵ֨ם וּבְנֵיהֶ֜ם עַל־ הַשְּׁעָרִ֧ים לְבֵית־ יְהוָ֛ה לְבֵ֥ית־ הָאֹ֖הֶל לְמִשְׁמָרֽוֹת׃
24The gatekeepers were on the four sides: east, west, north and south.24לְאַרְבַּ֣ע רוּח֔וֹת יִהְי֖וּ הַשֹּׁעֲרִ֑ים מִזְרָ֥ח יָ֖מָּה צָפ֥וֹנָה וָנֶֽגְבָּה׃
25Their fellow Levites in their villages had to come from time to time and share their duties for seven-day periods.25וַאֲחֵיהֶ֨ם בְּחַצְרֵיהֶ֜ם לָב֨וֹא לְשִׁבְעַ֧ת הַיָּמִ֛ים מֵעֵ֥ת אֶל־ עֵ֖ת עִם־ אֵֽלֶּה׃
26But the four principal gatekeepers, who were Levites, were entrusted with the responsibility for the rooms and treasuries in the house of God.26כִּ֣י בֶאֱמוּנָ֞ה הֵ֗מָּה אַרְבַּ֙עַת֙ גִּבֹּרֵ֣י הַשֹּׁעֲרִ֔ים הֵ֖ם הַלְוִיִּ֑ם וְהָיוּ֙ עַל־ הַלְּשָׁכ֔וֹת וְעַ֥ל הָאֹצְר֖וֹת בֵּ֥ית הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃
27They would spend the night stationed around the house of God, because they had to guard it; and they had charge of the key for opening it each morning.27וּסְבִיב֥וֹת בֵּית־ הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים יָלִ֑ינוּ כִּֽי־ עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם מִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת וְהֵ֥ם עַל־ הַמַּפְתֵּ֖חַ וְלַבֹּ֥קֶר לַבֹּֽקֶר׃
28Some of them were in charge of the articles used in the temple service; they counted them when they were brought in and when they were taken out.28וּמֵהֶ֖ם עַל־ כְּלֵ֣י הָעֲבוֹדָ֑ה כִּֽי־ בְמִסְפָּ֣ר יְבִיא֔וּם וּבְמִסְפָּ֖ר יוֹצִיאֽוּם׃
29Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all the other articles of the sanctuary, as well as the special flour and wine, and the olive oil, incense and spices.29וּמֵהֶ֗ם מְמֻנִּים֙ עַל־ הַכֵּלִ֔ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־ כְּלֵ֣י הַקֹּ֑דֶשׁ וְעַל־ הַסֹּ֙לֶת֙ וְהַיַּ֣יִן וְהַשֶּׁ֔מֶן וְהַלְּבוֹנָ֖ה וְהַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃
30But some of the priests took care of mixing the spices.30וּמִן־ בְּנֵי֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים רֹקְחֵ֥י הַמִּרְקַ֖חַת לַבְּשָׂמִֽים׃
31A Levite named Mattithiah, the firstborn son of Shallum the Korahite, was entrusted with the responsibility for baking the offering bread.31וּמַתִּתְיָה֙ מִן־ הַלְוִיִּ֔ם ה֥וּא הַבְּכ֖וֹר לְשַׁלֻּ֣ם הַקָּרְחִ֑י בֶּאֱמוּנָ֕ה עַ֖ל מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה הַחֲבִתִּֽים׃
32Some of the Kohathites, their fellow Levites, were in charge of preparing for every Sabbath the bread set out on the table.32וּמִן־ בְּנֵ֧י הַקְּהָתִ֛י מִן־ אֲחֵיהֶ֖ם עַל־ לֶ֣חֶם הַֽמַּעֲרָ֑כֶת לְהָכִ֖ין שַׁבַּ֥ת שַׁבָּֽת׃ ס
33Those who were musicians, heads of Levite families, stayed in the rooms of the temple and were exempt from other duties because they were responsible for the work day and night.33וְאֵ֣לֶּה הַ֠מְשֹׁרְרִים רָאשֵׁ֨י אָב֧וֹת לַלְוִיִּ֛ם בַּלְּשָׁכֹ֖ת [פטירים] (פְּטוּרִ֑ים) כִּֽי־ יוֹמָ֥ם וָלַ֛יְלָה עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם בַּמְּלָאכָֽה׃
34All these were heads of Levite families, chiefs as listed in their genealogy, and they lived in Jerusalem.34אֵלֶּה֩ רָאשֵׁ֨י הָאָב֧וֹת לַלְוִיִּ֛ם לְתֹלְדוֹתָ֖ם רָאשִׁ֑ים אֵ֖לֶּה יָשְׁב֥וּ בִירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ פ
35Jeiel the father of Gibeon lived in Gibeon. His wife's name was Maakah,35וּבְגִבְע֛וֹן יָשְׁב֥וּ אֲבִֽי־ גִבְע֖וֹן [יעואל] (יְעִיאֵ֑ל) וְשֵׁ֥ם אִשְׁתּ֖וֹ מַעֲכָֽה׃
36and his firstborn son was Abdon, followed by Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab,36וּבְנ֥וֹ הַבְּכ֖וֹר עַבְדּ֑וֹן וְצ֣וּר וְקִ֔ישׁ וּבַ֥עַל וְנֵ֖ר וְנָדָֽב׃
37Gedor, Ahio, Zechariah and Mikloth.37וּגְד֣וֹר וְאַחְי֔וֹ וּזְכַרְיָ֖ה וּמִקְלֽוֹת׃
38Mikloth was the father of Shimeam. They too lived near their relatives in Jerusalem.38וּמִקְל֖וֹת הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ שִׁמְאָ֑ם וְאַף־ הֵ֗ם נֶ֧גֶד אֲחֵיהֶ֛ם יָשְׁב֥וּ בִירֽוּשָׁלִַ֖ם עִם־ אֲחֵיהֶֽם׃ ס
39Ner was the father of Kish, Kish the father of Saul, and Saul the father of Jonathan, Malki-Shua, Abinadab and Esh-Baal.39וְנֵר֙ הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ קִ֔ישׁ וְקִ֖ישׁ הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ שָׁא֑וּל וְשָׁא֗וּל הוֹלִ֤יד אֶת־ יְהֽוֹנָתָן֙ וְאֶת־ מַלְכִּי־ שׁ֔וּעַ וְאֶת־ אֲבִינָדָ֖ב וְאֶת־ אֶשְׁבָּֽעַל׃
40The son of Jonathan: Merib-Baal, who was the father of Micah.40וּבֶן־ יְהוֹנָתָ֖ן מְרִ֣יב בָּ֑עַל וּמְרִי־ בַ֖עַל הוֹלִ֥יד אֶת־ מִיכָֽה׃
41The sons of Micah: Pithon, Melek, Tahrea and Ahaz.41וּבְנֵ֖י מִיכָ֑ה פִּית֥וֹן וָמֶ֖לֶךְ וְתַחְרֵֽעַ׃
42Ahaz was the father of Jadah, Jadah was the father of Alemeth, Azmaveth and Zimri, and Zimri was the father of Moza.42וְאָחָז֙ הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ יַעְרָ֔ה וְיַעְרָ֗ה הוֹלִ֛יד אֶת־ עָלֶ֥מֶת וְאֶת־ עַזְמָ֖וֶת וְאֶת־ זִמְרִ֑י וְזִמְרִ֖י הוֹלִ֥יד אֶת־ מוֹצָֽא׃
43Moza was the father of Binea; Rephaiah was his son, Eleasah his son and Azel his son.43וּמוֹצָ֖א הוֹלִ֣יד אֶת־ בִּנְעָ֑א וּרְפָיָ֥ה בְנ֛וֹ אֶלְעָשָׂ֥ה בְנ֖וֹ אָצֵ֥ל בְּנֽוֹ׃
44Azel had six sons, and these were their names: Azrikam, Bokeru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah and Hanan. These were the sons of Azel.44וּלְאָצֵל֮ שִׁשָּׁ֣ה בָנִים֒ וְאֵ֣לֶּה שְׁמוֹתָ֗ם עַזְרִיקָ֥ם ׀ בֹּ֙כְרוּ֙ וְיִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל וּשְׁעַרְיָ֔ה וְעֹבַדְיָ֖ה וְחָנָ֑ן אֵ֖לֶּה בְּנֵ֥י אָצַֽל׃ פ
