WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 David era muy anciano cuando nombró a su hijo Salomón como rey de Israel.
1 Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
2 Convocó a todos los jefes religiosos y políticos de Israel para la ceremonia de coronación.
2 He gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
3 Contaron a todos los levitas que tuvieran más de treinta años de edad, y resultó que había un total de treinta y ocho mil hombres.
3 The Levites were counted from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.
4 David, entonces, los distribuyó de la siguiente manera: Veinticuatro mil dirigirían el trabajo de construcción del templo del Señor, seis mil serían oficiales y jueces, cuatro mil servirían de porteros, y los cuatro mil restantes serían los encargados de alabar al Señor con los instrumentos musicales que David había hecho fabricar para tal fin.
4 David said, “Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of Yahweh’s house, six thousand were officers and judges,
5 Not in this translation
5 four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised Yahweh with the instruments which I made for giving praise.”
6 Luego David procedió a dividirlos en tres grupos principales, cada grupo encabezado por descendientes de Leví, como sigue: Sección de Guersón, sección de Coat, y sección de Merari.
6 David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7 Se procedió a establecer subdivisiones: la sección de Guersón estaría encabezada por sus hijos Ladán y Simí.
7 Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.
8 Los hijos de Ladán fueron: Jehiel en su calidad de jefe, Zetán y Joel. Los hijos de Simí, fueron Selomit, Jaziel y Jarán. Estos fueron los jefes de las familias paternas de Ladán.
8 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, Zetham, and Joel, three.
9 Not in this translation
9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.
10 Los hijos de Simí fueron: Yajat, el mayor, Ziza, el segundo; y luego Jeús y Beriá que se cuentan como una sola familia porque ambos tuvieron pocos hijos.
10 The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
11 Not in this translation
11 Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second; but Jeush and Beriah didn’t have many sons; therefore they became a fathers’ house in one reckoning.
12 Los hijos de Coat fueron: Amirán, Izar, Hebrón y Uziel.
12 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
13 Los hijos de Amirán fueron Aarón y Moisés. Aarón y sus hijos fueron apartados para el santo servicio de sacrificar las ofrendas del pueblo para el Señor, para quemar el incienso, y para bendecir al pueblo en nombre del Señor.
13 The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was separated that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons forever, to burn incense before Yahweh, to minister to him, and to bless in his name forever.
14 En cuanto a Moisés, varón de Dios, sus hijos Guersón y Eliezer fueron contados con la tribu de Leví.
14 But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.
15 Not in this translation
15 The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
16 Los hijos de Guersón tenían como jefe a Sebuel,
16 The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
17 y Rejabías, hijo único de Eliezer, era jefe de su clan, porque tuvo muchos hijos.
17 The son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
18 Los hijos de Izar tuvieron como jefe a Selomit.
18 The son of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
19 Los hijos de Hebrón tuvieron como jefe a Jerías; a Amarías como segundo; Jahaziel era tercero; y Jecamán, cuarto.
19 The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
20 Los hijos de Uziel tuvieron como jefe a Micaías, y como segundo a Isías.
20 The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
21 Los hijos de Merari fueron Majlí y Musí. Los hijos de Majlí fueron Eleazar y Quis.
21 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
22 Eleazar murió sin tener hijos, y sus hijas se casaron con sus primos, es decir, con los hijos de Quis.
22 Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their relatives, the sons of Kish, took them as wives.
23 Los hijos de Musí fueron Majlí, Edar y Jeremot.
23 The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24 En el censo, todos los varones de Leví, de veinte años en adelante, fueron registrados de acuerdo con sus familias paternas. Todos ellos estaban encargados del servicio en el templo del Señor.
24 These were the sons of Levi after their fathers’ houses, even the heads of the fathers’ houses of those who were counted individually, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of Yahweh’s house, from twenty years old and upward.
25 Al respecto, David expresó: «El Señor, Dios de Israel, nos ha dado paz, y va a tener su habitación siempre en Jerusalén.
25 For David said, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people; and he dwells in Jerusalem forever.
26 Ahora los levitas no tendrán necesidad de conducir el santuario y sus instrumentos de un lugar a otro».
26 Also the Levites will no longer need to carry the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service.”
27 Este censo de la tribu de Leví fue una de las últimas labores que David desarrolló antes de su muerte.
27 For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were counted, from twenty years old and upward.
28 El trabajo de los levitas consistía en ayudar a los sacerdotes, descendientes de Aarón, a efectuar los sacrificios en el templo del Señor. Además, tenían la responsabilidad de cuidar los atrios, los cuartos, limpiar todos los utensilios sagrados,
28 For their duty was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of Yahweh’s house—in the courts, in the rooms, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of God’s house;
29 tener listo todo lo que se usaba en las ofrendas: el pan de la Presencia, la harina para las ofrendas de cereales, las hojuelas sin levadura, las ofrendas fritas o cocidas, y de los instrumentos que se usaban para pesar y medir.
29 for the show bread also, and for the fine flour for a meal offering, whether of unleavened wafers, or of that which is baked in the pan, or of that which is soaked, and for all measurements of quantity and size;
30 Todos los días, en la mañana y en la tarde, estaban de pie delante del Señor y cantaban dándole gracias y alabanza.
30 and to stand every morning to thank and praise Yahweh, and likewise in the evening;
31 Ayudaban en los sacrificios especiales de ofrendas quemadas, los sacrificios del sábado, las celebraciones de la luna nueva y en todos los festivales. Siempre los levitas se presentaban en tanta cantidad como la que se requería para cada ocasión.
31 and to offer all burnt offerings to Yahweh on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, in number according to the ordinance concerning them, continually before Yahweh;
32 Así que tenían a su cargo el cuidado del santuario, de la Tienda de reunión, y estaban bajo las órdenes de los sacerdotes, descendientes de Aarón.
32 and that they should keep the duty of the Tent of Meeting, the duty of the holy place, and the duty of the sons of Aaron their brothers for the service of Yahweh’s house.
