¹Zvino mapoka avanakomana vaAroni akanga akadai: vanakomana vaAroni: Nadhabhi, naAbhihu, naEriazari, naItamari.

¹These were the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron: Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

²Asi Nadhabhi naAbhihu vakafa vasina vana, baba vavo vachiri vapenyu; saka Eriazari naItamari vakabata basa roupristi.

²But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.

³Dhavhidhi, pamwechete naZadhoki, mumwe wavanakomana vaEriazari, naAhimereki, mumwe wavanakomana vaItamari, vakakamura sezvavakanga vagoverwa mabasa avo.

³David with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to their ordering in their service.

⁴Vakawana vakuru vazhinji pakati pavanakomana vaEriazari kupfuura pakati pavanakomana vaItamari; vakakamurwa kudai : Pakati pavanakomana vaEriazari kwakanga kuna vane gumi navatanhatu, vaiva vakuru vedzimba dzamadzibaba; napakati pavanakomana vaItamari, nedzimba dzamadzibaba avo vakanga vari vasere.

⁴There were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and they were divided like this: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen, heads of fathers’ houses; and of the sons of Ithamar, according to their fathers’ houses, eight.

⁵Nokudaro vakakamurwa nemijenya, mumwe pano mumwe koko; nekuti kwakanga kuna machinda eimba tsvene, namachinda aMwari pakati pavanakomana valtamari.

⁵Thus were they divided impartially by drawing lots; for there were princes of the sanctuary, and princes of God, both of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.

⁶Shemaya mwanakomana waNetaneri, munyori, akanga ari wavaRevhi, akavanyora pamberi pamambo, namachinda, nomupristi Zadhoki, naAhimereki mwanakomana waAbhiyatari, navakuru vedzimba dzamadzibaba avapristi navaRevhi; vachitsaura mhuri imwe kuna Eriazari, nemhuri imwe kuna Itamari.

⁶Shemaiah the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was of the Levites, wrote them in the presence of the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers’ households of the priests and of the Levites; one fathers’ house being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.

¹⁹Ndiko kukamurwa kwavo pamabasa avo, kuti vapinde imba yaJehovha pavakanga varairwa napo naAroni baba vavo, sezvaakarairwa naJehovha Mwari walsiraeri.

¹⁹This was their ordering in their service, to come into the house of Yahweh according to the ordinance given to them by Aaron their father, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had commanded him.
