²²As for the Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, there were recorded the heads of fathers’ households; also the priests, in the reign of Darius the Persian.

²²Levitovia vo dňoch Eljašiba, Jojadu, Jochanána, Jadduu sú zapísaní, hlavy otcov, i kňazi, za kraľovania Peržana Dária.

²³The sons of Levi, heads of fathers’ households, were written in the book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.

²³Synovia Léviho, hlavy otcov, sú zapísaní v knihe Kroník a to až do dní Jochanána, syna Eljašibovho.

²⁴The chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers over against them, to praise and give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, watch next to watch.

²⁴A hlavy Levitov: Chašabiáš, Šerebiáš a Ješua, syn Kadmielov, a ich bratia naproti nim, aby chválili a oslavovali Boha podľa príkazu Dávida, muža Božieho, stráž naproti stráži.

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

²⁶Tí boli vo dňoch Jojakima, syna Ješuu, syna Jocadákovho, a vo dňoch vojvodu Nehemiáša a za kňaza Ezdráša, učeného v zákone.

²⁷At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with giving thanks, and with singing, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and with harps.

²⁷A pri posviacke múru Jeruzalema hľadali Levitov zo všetkých miest, aby ich doviedli do Jeruzalema vykonať posviacku a urobiť radosť, a to s oslavovaním a so spevom pri cymbaloch, pri harfách a citarách.

²⁸The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain around Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites;

²⁸A tak sa shromaždili synovia spevákov z okolia vôkol Jeruzalema i zo dvorov Netofaťanov

²⁹also from Beth Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had built them villages around Jerusalem.

²⁹i z Bét-gilgala a s polí Geby a Azmáveta. Lebo speváci si boli vystavili dvory vôkol Jeruzalema.

³⁰The priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.

³⁰A kňazi a Levitovia očistiac sa očistili ľud, brány i múr.

³¹Then I brought up the princes of Judah on the wall, and appointed two great companies who gave thanks and went in procession. One went on the right hand on the wall toward the dung gate;

³¹Potom som rozkázal kniežatám Júdovým, aby vyšly hore na múr, a postavil som dva veľké zástupy oslavujúcich a pochodujúcich, z ktorých jedni išli napravo hore ku Hnojnej bráne.

³²and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah,

³²A za nimi išiel Hošaiáš a polovica kniežat Júdových

³³and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

³³a Azariáš, Ezdráš a Mešullam,

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

³⁴Júda, Benjamin, Šemaiáš a Jeremiáš

³⁵and certain of the priests’ sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph;

³⁵a zo synov kňazov, s trúbami, Zachariáš, syn Jonatána, syna Šemaiáša, syna Mattaniáša, syna Michaiáša, syna Zakkúra, syna Azafovho,

³⁶and his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them.

³⁶a jeho bratia: Šemaiáš, Azareel, Milalaj, Gilalaj, Maaj, Natanael a Júda, Chanáni s hudobnými nástrojmi Dávida, muža Božieho a Ezdráš, učený v zákone, pred nimi,

³⁷By the spring gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the water gate eastward.

³⁷a išli hore k Studničnej bráne a priamo pred seba, išli hore po schodoch mesta Dávidovho, pri výstupe na múr, od miesta nad domom Dávidovým až k Vodnej bráne na východe.

³⁸The other company of those who gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people, on the wall, above the tower of the furnaces, even to the broad wall,

³⁸A zase druhý zástup oslavujúcich, ktorý išiel naľavo, a ja za ním i polovica ľudu, hore po múre od veže Pecí až po široký múr

³⁹and above the gate of Ephraim, and by the old gate, and by the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even to the sheep gate: and they stood still in the gate of the guard.

³⁹a od brány Efraimovej hore ku bráne starého múru a hore k Rybnej bráne, k veži Chananel a k veži Mea a tak až k Ovčej bráne, a zastáli pri bráne väzenia.

⁴⁰So stood the two companies of those who gave thanks in God’s house, and I, and the half of the rulers with me;

⁴⁰A tak sa zastavily obidva zástupy oslavujúcich v dome Božom i ja i polovica pohlavárov správy so mnou

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

⁴¹i kňazi: Eljakim, Maaseiáš, Minjamin, Michaiáš, Eljoenaj, Zachariáš, Chananiáš, s trúbami,

⁴²and Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. The singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.

⁴²a Maaseiáš, Šemaiáš, Eleazár, Uzzi, Jehochanán, Malkiáš, Élam a Ezer. A speváci spievali hlasne, a Jizrachiáš bol dozorcom.

⁴³They offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced; for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

⁴³A obetovali toho dňa veľké bitné obeti a radovali sa, lebo ich Bôh obdaril veľkou radosťou, ba i ženy i deti sa radovaly, takže bolo počuť radosť Jeruzalema naďaleko.

⁴⁴On that day were men appointed over the rooms for the treasures, for the wave offerings, for the first fruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, according to the fields of the cities, the portions appointed by the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites who waited.

⁴⁴Toho dňa boli ustanovení aj mužovia nad komorami pre poklady, pre obeti pozdvihnutia, pre prvotiny a pre desatiny shromažďovať do nich s polí jednotlivých miest čiastky, ustanovené podľa zákona, pre kňazov a pre Levitov: lebo Júda mal radosť hľadiac na kňazov a na Levitov, ktorí tam stáli.

⁴⁵They performed the duty of their God, and the duty of the purification, and so did the singers and the porters, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.

⁴⁵A tak strážili stráž svojho Boha a stráž očisťovania, i speváci i vrátni, podľa príkazu Dávida a Šalamúna, jeho syna.

⁴⁶For in the days of David and Asaph of old there was a chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.

⁴⁶Lebo už za dní Dávidových, a to Azaf, už od dávna, bol hlavou spevákov a piesne chvály a oslavovania Boha.

⁴⁷All Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, as every day required: and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.

⁴⁷A tak celý Izrael, vo dňoch Zerubábela a vo dňoch Nehemiáša, dávali čiastky pre spevákov a pre vrátnych, na každý deň to, čo ktorý deň vyžadoval. A posväcovali Levitom, a Levitovia posväcovali synom Áronovým.
