VUL Clementine Vulgate
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Igitur David, senex et plenus dierum, regem constituit Salomonem filium suum super Israël.
1 Now David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
2 Et congregavit omnes principes Israël, et sacerdotes atque Levitas.
2 He gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
3 Numeratique sunt Levitæ a triginta annis et supra: et inventa sunt triginta octo millia virorum.
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 Ex his electi sunt, et distributi in ministerium domus Domini, viginti quatuor millia: præpositorum autem et judicum, sex millia.
4 David said, “Of these, twenty-four thousand were to oversee the work of Yahweh’s house, six thousand were officers and judges,
5 Porro quatuor millia janitores, et totidem psaltæ, canentes Domino in organis quæ fecerat ad canendum.
5 four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised Yahweh with the instruments which I made for giving praise.”
6 Et distribuit eos David per vices filiorum Levi, Gerson videlicet, et Caath, et Merari.
6 David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
7 Filii Gerson: Leedan, et Semei.
7 Of the Gershonites: Ladan and Shimei.
8 Filii Leedan: princeps Jahiel, et Zethan, et Joël, tres.
8 The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, Zetham, and Joel, three.
9 Filii Semei: Salomith, et Hosiel, et Aran, tres: isti principes familiarum Leedan.
9 The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the heads of the fathers’ households of Ladan.
10 Porro filii Semei: Leheth, et Ziza, et Jaus, et Baria: isti filii Semei, quatuor.
10 The sons of Shimei: Jahath, Zina, Jeush, and Beriah. These four were the sons of Shimei.
11 Erat autem Leheth prior, Ziza secundus: porro Jaus et Baria non habuerunt plurimos filios, et idcirco in una familia, unaque domo computati sunt.
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 Filii Caath: Amram, et Isaar, Hebron, et Oziel, quatuor.
12 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
13 Filii Amram: Aaron et Moyses. Separatusque est Aaron ut ministraret in Sancto sanctorum, ipse et filii ejus in sempiternum, et adoleret incensum Domino secundum ritum suum, ac benediceret nomini ejus in perpetuum.
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 Moysi quoque hominis Dei filii annumerati sunt in tribu Levi.
14 But as for Moses the man of God, his sons were named among the tribe of Levi.
15 Filii Moysi: Gersom et Eliezer.
15 The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.
16 Filii Gersom: Subuel primus.
16 The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the chief.
17 Fuerunt autem filii Eliezer: Rohobia primus: et non erant Eliezer filii alii. Porro filii Rohobia multiplicati sunt nimis.
17 The son of Eliezer was Rehabiah the chief; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
18 Filii Isaar: Salomith primus.
18 The son of Izhar: Shelomith the chief.
19 Filii Hebron: Jeriau primus, Amarias secundus, Jahaziel tertius, Jecmaam quartus.
19 The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the chief, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
20 Filii Oziel: Micha primus, Jesia secundus.
20 The sons of Uzziel: Micah the chief, and Isshiah the second.
21 Filii Merari: Moholi, et Musi. Filii Moholi: Eleazar et Cis.
21 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.
22 Mortuus est autem Eleazar, et non habuit filios, sed filias: acceperuntque eas filii Cis fratres earum.
22 Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters only; and their relatives, the sons of Kish, took them as wives.
23 Filii Musi: Moholi, et Eder, et Jerimoth, tres.
23 The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
24 Hi filii Levi in cognationibus et familiis suis, principes per vices, et numerum capitum singulorum qui faciebant opera ministerii domus Domini, a viginti annis et supra.
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 Dixit enim David: Requiem dedit Dominus Deus Israël populo suo, et habitationem Jerusalem usque in æternum.
25 For David said, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people; and he dwells in Jerusalem forever.
26 Nec erit officii Levitarum ut ultra portent tabernaculum et omnia vasa ejus ad ministrandum.
26 Also the Levites will no longer need to carry the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service.”
27 Juxta præcepta quoque David novissima, supputabitur numerus filiorum Levi a viginti annis et supra.
27 For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were counted, from twenty years old and upward.
28 Et erunt sub manu filiorum Aaron in cultum domus Domini, in vestibulis, et in exedris, et in loco purificationis, et in sanctuario, et in universis operibus ministerii templi Domini.
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 Sacerdotes autem, super panes propositionis, et ad similæ sacrificium, et ad lagana azyma, et sartaginem, et ad torrendum, et super omne pondus atque mensuram.
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 Levitæ vero ut stent mane ad confitendum et canendum Domino: similiterque ad vesperam,
30 and to stand every morning to thank and praise Yahweh, and likewise in the evening;
31 tam in oblatione holocaustorum Domini, quam in sabbatis et calendis et solemnitatibus reliquis juxta numerum et cæremonias uniuscujusque rei, jugiter coram Domino.
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 Et custodiant observationes tabernaculi fœderis, et ritum sanctuarii, et observationem filiorum Aaron fratrum suorum, ut ministrent in domo Domini.
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.
