¹⁰Oo Yeeshuuca wuxuu dhalay Yooyaaqiim, Yooyaaqiimna wuxuu dhalay Eliyaashiib, Eliyaashiibna wuxuu dhalay Yooyaadaac,

¹⁰And Jeshua hath begotten Joiakim, and Joiakim hath begotten Eliashib, and Eliashib hath begotten Joiada,

¹¹Yooyaadaacna wuxuu dhalay Yoonaataan, Yoonaataanna wuxuu dhalay Yadduuca.

¹¹and Joiada hath begotten Jonathan, and Jonathan hath begotten Jaddua.

¹²Oo wakhtigii Yooyaaqiim waxaa jiray wadaaddo qabiilooyin madax u ahaa; waxaa reer Seraayaah u ahaa Meraayaah, reer Yeremyaahna Xananyaah,

¹²And in the days of Joiakim have been priests, heads of the fathers; of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

²²Oo kuwii reer Laawi oo joogay wakhtigii Eliyaashiib, iyo Yooyaadaac, iyo Yooxaanaan iyo Yadduuca waxay ahaayeen madaxda qabiilooyinka oo la qoray; waxaa kaloo la qoray wadaaddadii joogay ilaa boqornimadii Daariyus kii reer Faaris ahaa.

²²The Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, are written, heads of fathers, and of the priests, in the kingdom of Darius the Persian.

²³Kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa madaxdii qabiilooyinka waxaa lagu qoray kitaabkii taariikhda tan iyo wakhtigii Yooxaanaan oo ahaa ina Eliyaashiib.

²³Sons of Levi, heads of the fathers, are written on the book of the Chronicles even till the days of Johanan son of Eliashib;

²⁴Oo kuwii reer Laawi madaxda u ahaa waxay ahaayeen Xashabyaah, iyo Sheereebyaah, iyo Yeeshuuca oo ahaa ina Qadmii'eel, iyo walaalahoodii iyaga ka soo hor jeeday inay Ilaah ammaanaan oo ay u mahad naqaan, siduu amray Daa'uud oo ahaa ninkii Ilaah, iyagoo iska soo hor jeeda.

²⁴and heads of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua son of Kadmiel, and their brethren, [are] over-against them, to give praise, to give thanks, by command of David the man of God, charge over-against charge.

²⁵Oo Matanyaah, iyo Baqbuqyaah, iyo Cobadyaah, iyo Meshullaam, iyo Talmon, iyo Caquub waxay ahaayeen irid-dhawryadii dhawri jiray bakhaarradii u dhowaa irdaha.

²⁵Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, [are] gatekeepers, keeping charge in the gatherings of the gates.

²⁶Kuwaasu waxay joogeen wakhtigii Yooyaaqiim oo ahaa ina Yeeshuuca, ina Yoosaadaaq, iyo wakhtigii taliyihii Nexemyaah ahaa iyo wakhtigii wadaadkii Cesraa oo karraaniga ahaa.

²⁶These [are] in the days of Joiakim son of Jeshua, son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest, the scribe.

²⁷Oo markii derbigii Yeruusaalem gaar laga dhigay kuwii reer Laawi mid kasta meeshiisii baa laga doondoonay in iyaga Yeruusaalem la keeno si gaarkadhigidda farxad loogu sameeyo, oo mahadnaqid iyo gabay, iyo suxuun laysku garaaco, iyo shareerado, iyo kataaradoba Ilaah loogu ammaano.

²⁷And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them in to Jerusalem, to make the dedication even with gladness, and with thanksgivings, and with singing, [with] cymbals, psalteries, and with harps;

²⁸Oo kuwii gabayaaga ahaana waxay iska soo urursadeen bannaankii Yeruusaalem ku wareegsanaa iyo tuulooyinkii reer Netofaah,

²⁸and sons of the singers are gathered together even from the circuit round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophathi,

²⁹iyo weliba Beytgilgaal, iyo beerihii Gebac, iyo Casmawed, waayo, kuwii gabayaaga ahaa tuulooyin ayay ka dhisteen Yeruusaalem hareeraheeda.

²⁹and from the house of Gilgal, and from fields of Geba and Azmaveth, for villages have the singers built for themselves round about Jerusalem;

³⁰Markaasaa wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi isdaahiriyeen, oo waxay kaloo daahiriyeen dadkii iyo irdihii iyo derbigii.

³⁰and the priests and the Levites are cleansed, and they cleanse the people, and the gates, and the wall.

³¹Kolkaasaan amiirradii dalka Yahuudah keenay derbiga dushiisa, oo waxaan doortay laba kooxood oo waaweyn oo mahad naqa, oo kooxba raggeedu isdaba socdo. Midi waxay tagtay xagga midig derbiga dushiisa ee Iridda Digada,

³¹And I bring up the heads of Judah upon the wall, and appoint two great thanksgiving companies and processions. At the right, on the wall, to the dung-gate;

³²oo waxaa iyagii daba galay Hooshacyaah iyo amiirradii dalka Yahuudah badhkood,

³²and after them goeth Hoshaiah, and half of the heads of Judah,

³³iyo Casaryaah, iyo Cesraa, iyo Meshullaam,

³³and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

³⁴iyo Yahuudah, iyo Benyaamiin, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Yeremyaah,

³⁴Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah;

³⁵iyo wiilashii wadaaddada qaarkood oo turumbooyin wata, kuwaasoo ahaa Sekaryaah oo ahaa ina Yoonaataan, ina Shemacyaah, ina Matanyaah, ina Miikaayaah, ina Sakuur, ina Aasaaf,

³⁵and of the sons of the priests with trumpets, Zechariah son of Jonathan, son of Shemaiah, son of Mattaniah, son of Michaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph,

³⁶iyo walaalihiis oo ahaa Shemacyaah, iyo Casareel, iyo Milalay, iyo Gilalay, iyo Maacay, iyo Netoneel, iyo Yahuudah, iyo Xanaanii, iyagoo wata alaabtii muusikada oo Daa'uud oo ahaa ninka Ilaah, oo iyaga waxaa u horreeyey karraanigii Cesraa.

³⁶and his brethren Shemaiah, and Azarael, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethaneel, and Judah, Hanani, with instruments of song of David the man of God, and Ezra the scribe [is] before them;

³⁷Oo xagga Iriddii Isha Biyaha iyo hortoodii ku qummanayd ayay kor u fuuleen jaranjaradii magaalada Daa'uud meesha derbiga laga fuulo oo ka korraysa gurigii Daa'uud, iyo ilaa Iridda Biyaha oo xagga bari ah.

³⁷and by the gate of the fountain and over-against them, they have gone up by the steps of the city of David, at the going up of the wall beyond the house of David, and unto the water-gate eastward.

³⁸Oo kooxdii kale oo kuwa mahadda naqaa waxay u kaceen inay ka hor tagaan, oo anna iyagaan daba socday; aniga iyo dadkii badhkiis waxaannu soconnay derbiga korkiisa, xagga ka sarraysa Munaaradda Foornooyinka iyo xataa tan iyo derbiga ballaadhan,

³⁸And the second thanksgiving company that is going over-against, and I after it, and half of the people on the wall from beyond the tower of the furnaces and unto the broad wall,

³⁹iyo xagga ka sarraysa Iridda Efrayim, iyo Iridda Gabooday agteeda, iyo Iridda Kalluunka, iyo Munaaradda Xananeel, iyo Munaaradda Mee'aah, iyo xataa Iridda Idaha; oo waxay joogsadeen Iriddii Waardiyaha.

³⁹and from beyond the gate of Ephraim, and by the old-gate, and by the fish-gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Meah, and unto the sheep-gate — and they have stood at the prison-gate.

⁴⁰Oo sidaasay u joogsadeen labadii kooxood oo kuwii mahadda ku naqi jiray gurigii Ilaah, iyo aniga, iyo taliyayaashii badhkood oo ila joogay,

⁴⁰And the two thanksgiving companies stand in the house of God, and I and half of the prefects with me,

⁴¹iyo wadaaddadii ahaa Elyaaqiim, iyo Macaseeyaah, iyo Minyaamim, iyo Miikaayaah, iyo Eliyooceenay, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Xananyaah, oo wata turumbooyin;

⁴¹and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Michaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, Hananiah, with trumpets,

⁴²iyo Macaseeyaah, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Elecaasaar, iyo Cusii, iyo Yehooxaanaan, iyo Malkiiyaah, iyo Ceelaam, iyo Ceser. Oo kuwii gabayaaga ahaana cod dheer bay kula gabyeen Yesraxyaah oo ahaa madaxoodii.

⁴²and Masseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer, and the singers sound, and Jezrahiah the inspector;

⁴³Oo maalintaas waxaa la bixiyey allabaryo badan, oo waa la wada farxay, waayo, Ilaah baa farxad weyn kaga farxiyey, oo dumarkii iyo carruurtiina way farxeen, sidaas daraaddeed Yeruusaalem farxaddeedii waxaa laga maqlay meel fog.

⁴³and they sacrifice on that day great sacrifices and rejoice, for God hath made them rejoice [with] great joy, and also, the women and the children have rejoiced, and the joy of Jerusalem is heard — unto a distance.

⁴⁴Oo maalintaas ayaa rag loo doortay inay u taliyaan qolalka khasnadaha, iyo qurbaannada kor loo qaado, iyo midhaha ugu horreeya, iyo meeltobnaadyada, si loogaga soo ururiyo beeraha magaalooyinka oo dhan qaybihii sharcigu u amray wadaaddada iyo kuwii reer Laawi, waayo, dadka dalka Yahuudah way ku faraxsanaayeen wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi oo adeegayay.

⁴⁴And certain are appointed on that day over the chambers for treasures, for heave-offerings, for first-fruits, and for tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for priests, and for Levites, for the joy of Judah [is] over the priests, and over the Levites, who are standing up.

⁴⁵Oo waxay dhawreen wixii ku saabsanaa u adeegidda Ilaahood iyo wixii ku saabsanaa isdaahirinta, oo kuwii gabayaaga ahaa iyo irid-dhawryadiina saasoo kalay yeeleen, sidii uu amarkii Daa'uud iyo wiilkiisii Sulaymaan ahaa.

⁴⁵And the singers and the gatekeepers keep the charge of their God, even the charge of the cleansing — according to the command of David [and] Solomon his son,

⁴⁶Waayo, waagii hore oo ahaa wakhtigii Daa'uud iyo Aasaaf waxaa jiri jiray nin madax u ahaa kuwii gabayaaga ahaa, oo waxaa Ilaah loogu gabyi jiray gabayo ammaan iyo mahadnaqid ah.Oo wakhtigii Serubaabel iyo wakhtigii Nexemyaah reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu way wada bixin jireen qaybihii kuwii gabayaaga ahaa iyo kuwii irid-dhawryadaba intii maalin kasta loo baahnaan jiray; oo in bay gooni uga dhigeen reer Laawi, oo reer Laawina in bay gooni uga dhigeen reer Haaruun.

⁴⁶for in the days of David and Asaph of old [were] heads of the singers, and a song of praise and thanksgiving to God.

⁴⁷Oo wakhtigii Serubaabel iyo wakhtigii Nexemyaah reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu way wada bixin jireen qaybihii kuwii gabayaaga ahaa iyo kuwii irid-dhawryadaba intii maalin kasta loo baahnaan jiray; oo in bay gooni uga dhigeen reer Laawi, oo reer Laawina in bay gooni uga dhigeen reer Haaruun.

⁴⁷And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, are giving the portions of the singers, and of the gatekeepers, the matter of a day in its day, and are sanctifying to the Levites, and the Levites are sanctifying to the sons of Aaron.
