22 Oliy ruhoniylar Eliashab, Yoʻxadax, Yoʻxanon va Yodduva davrlarida levilar roʻyxatda oʻz urugʻboshilari nomi bilan qayd etilganlar. Fors shohi Doro hukmronligi davrida esa roʻyxatga olishning bunday usuli ruhoniylarga nisbatan qoʻllanilgan edi. 23 Oliy ruhoniy Eliashab nevarasi Yoʻxanon davrigacha “Tarix kitobi”dagi roʻyxatlarda levilar oʻz urugʻboshilari nomlari boʻyicha yozilganlar.
24-25 Quyidagilar levilarning urugʻboshilari edilar:
Xashaviyo, Sharaviyo, Yeshuva, Binnuy, Kadmil va ularning hamkorlari Mattaniyo, Bobuhyo va Obodiyo. Xudoning odami Dovud bergan farmonga koʻra, ular Xudoga hamdu sano va shukrona aytayotganlarida, ikki guruhga boʻlinib, bir–birlariga roʻparama–roʻpara turib, kuylar edilar.
Mashullom, Talmoʻn va Oqquv Maʼbad darvozabonlari edilar. Ular Egamizning uyi darvozalari yonidagi omborxonalarni qoʻriqlar edilar.
26 Bu odamlar oliy ruhoniy Yoʻyiqim, hokim Naximiyo, ruhoniy hamda tafsirchi Ezraning zamondoshlari edilar. Oliy ruhoniy Yoʻyiqim — Yoshuaning oʻgʻli, Yohuzadaxning nabirasi edi.
Naximiyo shahar devorini Xudoga bagʻishlaydi
27 Quddusning yangi devori Xudoga bagʻishlanayotganda Yahudo yurtidagi hamma levilar chaqirildi. Ular xursandchilik paytida shukrona qoʻshiqlar kuylab, zil, arfa, chang chalib, marosimda ishtirok etishlari kerak edilar. 28-29 Levi qoʻshiqchilari Quddus atrofidagi qishloqlardan yigʻilib keldilar. Quddus atrofidagi oʻsha qishloqlarni levilar oʻzlari uchun qurgan edilar. Natufo, Bayt–Gilgal, Gebo va Ozmobit shaharlarining atrofidagi qishloqlarda yashaydigan levilar ham yigʻilib keldilar. 30 Ruhoniylar va levilar oʻzlarini pokladilar, soʻngra xalqni, Quddus darvozalarini va devorini pokladilar.
31 Keyin men Yahudo yoʻlboshchilarini devor ustiga chiqardim. Xudoga shukrona aytadigan ikkita katta guruh qoʻshiqchilarni tayinladim. Qoʻshiqchilarning bir guruhi devor ustida janubga — Goʻng darvozasi tomonga tantana bilan yurdi. 32 Hoʻshayyo Yahudo yoʻlboshchilarining yarmini ergashtirib, birinchi guruh qoʻshiqchilarning orqasidan bordi. 33-35 Ularning orqasidan esa quyidagi ruhoniylar karnaylar chalib bordilar: Ozariyo, Ezra, Mashullom, Yahudo, Benyamin, Shamayo va Yeremiyo. Ularning ketidan Yoʻnatan oʻgʻli Zakariyo bordi. Zakariyoning nasabnomasi quyidagicha edi: Yoʻnatan — Shamayoning oʻgʻli, Shamayo — Mattaniyoning oʻgʻli, Mattaniyo — Mixiyoning oʻgʻli, Mixiyo — Zakkurning oʻgʻli, Zakkur Osaf naslidan edi. 36 Zakariyoning yonida uning hamkorlari — Shamayo, Ozariyol, Milalay, Jilalay, May, Natanil, Yahudo, Xoninni bor edilar. Ular Xudoning odami shoh Dovudning koʻrsatmasiga binoan musiqa asboblarini koʻtarib borardilar. Tafsirchi Ezra birinchi guruh qoʻshiqchilarining orqasidan borayotganlarni boshlab bordi. 37 Ular Buloq darvozasidan Dovud qalʼasiga olib boradigan zinapoya orqali toʻgʻriga yurdilar. Dovudning saroyidan oʻtib, sharq tomondagi Suv darvozasiga ketdilar.
38 Xudoga shukrona aytayotgan ikkinchi guruh qoʻshiqchilar devorning ustida shimol tomonga ketdilar. Men Yahudo yoʻlboshchilarining yarmini boshlab, ikkinchi guruh qoʻshiqchilarning ortidan ketdim. Biz Tandir darvozasidan, Keng devoridan, 39 Efrayim darvozasidan, Yashono darvozasidan , Baliq darvozasidan, Xanonil minorasidan, Yuz minorasidan va Qoʻy darvozasidan oʻtdik. Nihoyat, Qoʻriqchi darvozasi yonidagi manzilga yetib bordik. 40 Shunday qilib, Xudoga shukrona aytgan ikkala guruh Xudoning uyi oldida toʻxtadi.
Yonimdagi yoʻlboshchilar bilan birga, 41 quyidagi ruhoniylar ham karnay chalib, ikkinchi guruh qoʻshiqchilar ortidan yurdilar: Eliyaqim, Masiyo, Minyomin, Mixiyo, Eliyoʻnay, Zakariyo va Xanoniyo. 42 Ularning ketidan Masiyo, Shamayo, Elazar, Uzzi, Yohuxanon, Malkiyo, Elam va Eyzar borgandilar. Qoʻshiqchilar oʻzlarining yoʻlboshchisi Yizraxiyo boshchiligida kuylagandilar.
43 Oʻsha kuni xalq koʻp qurbonliklar keltirib, xursandchilik qilishdi, chunki Xudo ularga koʻp shod–xurramlik ato qilgan edi. Ayollar va bolalar ham xursand edilar. Quddusdagi shodlik sadolari uzoqlardan eshitilib turardi.
Maʼbaddagi xizmatchilar uchun nazr va ushrlar
44 Oʻsha kuni Maʼbaddagi omborxonalar ustidan odamlar tayinlandi. Omborxonalarda hadyalar, birinchi hosildan keltirilgan nazrlar va ushrlar saqlanar edi. Tayinlangan odamlar, qonunga koʻra, shaharlar atrofidagi dalalardan ruhoniylar va levilar uchun ushrlarni yigʻib, omborxonalarga olib kelishlari kerak edi. Chunki Yahudo xalqi ruhoniylar va levilarning xizmatini qadrlar edi. 45 Ruhoniylar, levilar poklash marosimlarini va Xudo tayin etgan boshqa marosimlarni bajarar edilar. Qoʻshiqchilar va darvozabonlar ham, ular qatorida, shoh Dovud va uning oʻgʻli Sulaymondan qolgan farmonga muvofiq, Maʼbadda xizmat qilar edilar. 46 Darvoqe, qoʻshiqchilarga boshlovchi tayinlab, Xudoga hamdu sano va shukronalar aytish odati azaldan — Dovud va Osif davridan boshlangan edi. 47 Zarubabel davrida ham, Naximiyo davrida ham butun Isroil xalqi qoʻshiqchilar va Maʼbad darvozabonlari uchun kundalik ulushlarni berardi. Ular levilar uchun ham ulush ajratishardi, levilar esa ruhoniylarning ulushini ajratib berishar edi.
1 Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra, 2 Amariah, Malluch, Hattush, 3 Shechaniah, Rehum, Meremoth, 4 Iddo, Ginnetho, Abijah, 5 Miamin, Maadiah, Bilgah, 6 Shemaiah, and Joiarib, Jedaiah, 7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chief of the priests and of their brethren in the days of Jeshua. 8 Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, which was over the thanksgiving, he and his brethren. 9 Also Bakbukiah and Unni, their brethren, were over against them in the watches.
10 ¶ And Jeshua begat Joiakim, Joiakim also begat Eliashib, and Eliashib begat Joiada, 11 And Joiada begat Jonathan, and Jonathan begat Jaddua. 12 And in the days of Joiakim were priests, the chief of the fathers: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah; 13 Of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan; 14 Of Melicu, Jonathan; of Shebaniah, Joseph; 15 Of Harim, Adna; of Meraioth, Helkai; 16 Of Iddo, Zechariah; of Ginnethon, Meshullam; 17 Of Abijah, Zichri; of Miniamin, of Moadiah, Piltai; 18 Of Bilgah, Shammua; of Shemaiah, Jehonathan; 19 And of Joiarib, Mattenai; of Jedaiah, Uzzi; 20 Of Sallai, Kallai; of Amok, Eber; 21 Of Hilkiah, Hashabiah; of Jedaiah, Nethaneel.
22 ¶ The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were recorded chief of the fathers: also the priests, to the reign of Darius the Persian. 23 The sons of Levi, the chief of the fathers, were written in the book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib. 24 And the chief of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise and to give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, ward over against ward. 25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were porters keeping the ward at the thresholds of the gates. 26 These 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.
27 ¶ And at 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 thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps. 28 And the sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain country round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophathi; 29 Also from the house of Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had builded them villages round about Jerusalem. 30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and purified the people, and the gates, and the wall. 31 Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two great companies of them that gave thanks, whereof one went on the right hand upon the wall toward the dung gate: 32 And after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah, 33 And Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam, 34 Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah, 35 And certain of the priests’ sons with trumpets; namely , Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Michaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph: 36 And his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarael, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethaneel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God, and Ezra the scribe before them. 37 And at the fountain gate, which was over against them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall, above the house of David, even unto the water gate eastward. 38 And the other company of them that gave thanks went over against them , and I after them, and the half of the people upon the wall, from beyond the tower of the furnaces even unto the broad wall; 39 And from above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old gate, and above the fish gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Meah, even unto the sheep gate: and they stood still in the prison gate. 40 So stood the two companies of them that gave thanks in the house of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me: 41 And the priests; Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Michaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets; 42 And Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer. 43 Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced: for God had made them rejoice with great joy: the wives also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.
44 ¶ And at that time were some appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that waited. 45 And both the singers and the porters kept the ward of their God, and the ward of the purification, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son. 46 For in the days of David and Asaph of old there were chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto God. 47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, every day his portion: and they sanctified holy things unto the Levites; and the Levites sanctified them unto the children of Aaron.
