22 Sob o reinado de Dario, rei da Pérsia, fez-se uma lista de todos os chefes de famílias levíticas e sacerdotais do tempo de Eliasib, de Joiada, de Joanã e de Jedoa.	22 The Levites, in the days of Eliashib, and Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, and the priests, were written according to the leaders of the families, during the reign of Darius the Persian.
23 No livro das Crônicas, os chefes de famílias levíticas só estão inscritos até o tempo de Joanã, filho de Eliasib.	23 The sons of Levi, according to the leaders of the families, were written in the book of the words of those days, even to the days of Johanan, the son of Eliashib.
24 Os chefes dos levitas foram, pois: Hasebias, Serebias e Josué, filho de Cedmiel, encarregados, alternadamente com os seus irmãos, do serviço dos louvores ao Senhor segundo o rito instituído por Davi, com um coro respondendo ao outro;	24 Now the leaders of the Levites were Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua, the son of Kadmiel, and their brothers, in their turns, so that they would praise and confess, according to the precept of David, the man of God. And they served equally and in order.
25 Matanias, Becbecias, Abdias, Mosolão, Telmon e Acub eram porteiros e tinham a guarda das portas.	25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were keepers of the gates and of the vestibules before the gates.
26 Tais eram os que estavam em funções no tempo de Joaquim, filho de Josué, filho de Josedec, e no tempo do governador Neemias, e de Esdras, sacerdote e escriba.	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 and scribe.
27 Por ocasião da inauguração das muralhas de Jerusalém, convocaram-se os levitas de todos os lugares onde habitavam, para que viessem a Jerusalém celebrar alegremente tal dedicação com hinos e cânticos, ao som de címbalos, cítaras e harpas.	27 Now at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sought the Levites from all their places, so that they might bring them to Jerusalem, and so that they might keep the dedication, and rejoice with thanksgiving, and with singing, and with cymbals, psalteries, and lyres.
28 Os filhos dos cantores reuniram-se dos campos vizinhos de Jerusalém e das cidades dos netofateus, de Bet-Galgal e do território de Geba e de Azmavet,	28 Now the sons of the singing men were gathered from the plains surrounding Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophati,
29 porque os cantores haviam construído aldeias nos arredores de Jerusalém.	29 and from the house of Gilgal, and from the regions of Geba and Azmaveth. For the singing men had built villages for themselves around Jerusalem.
30 Os sacerdotes e levitas purificaram-se, e depois purificaram o povo, as portas e a muralha.	30 And the priests and the Levites were cleansed, and they cleansed the people, and the gates, and the wall.
31 Fiz então subir à muralha os chefes de Judá, e formei dois grandes coros para o cortejo. Um ia pela direita, por cima da muralha, na direção da porta da Esterqueira.	31 Then I caused the leaders of Judah to ascend the wall, and I appointed two great choirs to give praise. And they went to the right upon the wall, toward the dung gate.
32 Em seguida caminhavam Osaías e a metade dos chefes de Judá,	32 And after them went Hoshaiah, and one half part of the leadership of Judah,
33 Azarias, Esdras, Mosolão,	33 and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam, Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah.
34 Judá, Benjamim, Semeías e Jeremias;	34 And some of the sons of the priests went forth with trumpets: Zachariah, the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph.
35 depois os filhos dos sacerdotes com trombetas: Zacarias, filho de Jonatã, filho de Semeías, filho de Matanias, filho de Miquéias, filho de Zecur, filho de Asaf,	35 And his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, and Hanani, went forth with the canticles of David, the man of God. And Ezra, the scribe, was before them at the fountain gate.
36 e seus irmãos, Semeías, Azareel, Malalai, Galalai, Maai, Natanael, Judá e Hanani, com os instrumentos musicais de Davi, o homem de Deus. O escriba Esdras ia à frente deles.	36 And opposite them, they ascended by the steps of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall above the house of David, and as far as the water gate to the east.
37 Chegando à porta da fonte, subiram reto diante de si os degraus da cidade de Davi, pela subida da muralha que protege a casa de Davi, até atingir a porta da Água, ao oriente.	37 And the second choir of those who gave thanks went forth on the opposite side, and I went after them, and one half part of the people were upon the wall, and upon the tower of the furnaces, as far as the widest wall,
38 O segundo coro pôs-se a caminho por cima da muralha, do lado oposto; a este é que eu seguia com a outra metade da multidão.	38 and above the gate of Ephraim, and above the ancient gate, and above the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hamath, and as far as the flock gate. And they stood still at the watch gate.
39 Passando por cima da torre dos Fornos, caminhou-se até a muralha larga; depois por cima da porta de Efraim, da torre de Nananeel, da torre de Mea, até a porta das Ovelhas; e paramos à porta da Prisão.	39 And the two choirs of those who gave praise stood still at the house of God, with myself and one half part of the magistrates who were with me.
40 Os dois coros se detiveram na casa de Deus, bem como eu e a metade dos magistrados que me acompanhavam,	40 And the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Mijamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, Hananiah, went forth with trumpets,
41 e os sacerdotes Eliacim, Maasias, Miamin, Miquéias, Elisenai, Zacarias, Ananias, munidos de trombetas,	41 with Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers were singing clearly, and Jezrahiah was their foremost leader.
42 e Maasias, Semeías, Eleazar, Azi, Joanã, Melquias, Elã e Ezer. E os cantores se fizeram ouvir, sob a direção de Jezraías.	42 And on that day, they immolated great sacrifices, and they rejoiced. For God had caused them to rejoice with great joy. And their wives and children also were glad. And the rejoicing of Jerusalem was heard from far away.
43 Ofereceram-se naquele dia grandes sacrifícios e houve grande regozijo porque Deus havia dado ao povo um grande motivo de alegria. As mulheres e as crianças tomaram parte também nas festividades, e de muito longe ouviam-se os gritos de alegria que ecoavam de Jerusalém.	43 On that day also, they enrolled men over the storehouses of the treasury, for the libations, and for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, so that the leaders of the city might bring these in, by them, with proper thanksgiving, for the priests and the Levites. For Judah was rejoicing in the priests and the Levites who were assisting.
44 Naquele tempo, estabeleceram-se homens para guardar as salas que serviam de depósito para as oferendas, as ofertas reservadas, as primícias e os dízimos, onde foram recolhidas, em suas diversas divisões, as partes assinaladas pela lei aos sacerdotes e aos levitas. O povo de Judá alegrou-se, vendo em seus postos os sacerdotes e os levitas,	44 And they kept the vigil of their God, and the vigil of expiation, with the singing men and the gatekeepers, in accord with the precept of David, and of Solomon, his son.
45 os quais, do mesmo modo que os cantores e os porteiros, asseguravam o serviço de seu Deus e os ritos das purificações, segundo as ordens de Davi e de Salomão, seu filho.	45 For in the days of David and Asaph, from the beginning, there were leaders appointed over the singers, to give praise in verses, and to confess to God.
46 Com efeito, no tempo de Davi e de Asaf, havia chefes de cantores que cantavam louvores e ações de graças a Deus.	46 And all of Israel, in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave portions to the singing men and to the gatekeepers, for each day, and they sanctified the Levites, and the Levites sanctified the sons of Aaron.
47 E agora, no tempo de Zorobabel e de Neemias, Israel inteiro servia quotidianamente porções destinadas aos cantores e porteiros; e dava as ofertas sagradas aos levitas, os quais entregavam sua parte aos filhos de Aarão.
