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

Na, ko nga wehenga o nga tama a Arona koia enei. Ko nga tama a Arona, ko Natapa, ko Apihu, ko Ereatara, ko Itamara.

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

I mate ia a Natapa raua ko Apihu ki te aroaro o to raua papa; kahore hoki a raua tama: a na Ereatara raua ko Itamara i mahi nga mahi a te tohunga.

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

Na ka wehea ratou e Rawiri ratou ko Haroko o nga tama a Ereatara, ko Ahimereke o nga tama a Itamara, he mea whakarite ki nga tikanga ma ratou mo a ratou mahi.

4 T here 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.

Na ka kitea he tokomaha rawa nga tino tangata o nga tama a Ereatara i o nga tama a Itamara; a ko to ratou wehenga tenei; o nga tama a Ereatara kotahi tekau ma ono nga tino tangata o nga whare o o ratou matua; o nga tama a Itamara, o nga whare o o ratou matua, tokowaru.

5 T hus 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.

Ko to ratou wehenga hoki he mea rota, ko enei hui tahi ki era; a tera nga rangatira o te wahi tapu, me nga rangatira o te whare o te Atua no nga tama a Ereatara, no nga tama ano hoki a Itamara.

6 S hemaiah the son of Nethanel the scribe, who was of the Levites, wrote them in the presence of the king, the princes, Zadok the priest, 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.

He mea tuhituhi ratou na Hemaia karaipi, tama a Netaneere, o nga Riwaiti, ki te aroaro o te kingi, o nga rangatira, o Haroko tohunga raua ko Ahimereke tama a Apiatara, ki te aroaro ano o nga upoko o nga whare o nga matua o nga tohunga, o nga Riwa iti: kotahi whare matua i riro mo Ereatara, kotahi i riro mo Itamara.

19 T his was their ordering in their service, to come into Yahweh’s house according to the ordinance given to them by Aaron their father, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had commanded him.

Ko nga tikanga enei mo ratou, mo a ratou mahi, mo te tomo ki te whare o Ihowa, i runga i te ritenga mo ratou, i whakaritea e to ratou papa, e Arona, ko ta Ihowa, ko ta te Atua o Iharaira i whakahau ai ki a ia.
