61 Kutoka miongoni mwa makuhani: Wazao wa Hobaya, Hakosi, Barzilai (mtu aliyekuwa amemwoa binti wa Barzilai, Mgileadi, naye akaitwa kwa jina hilo).

62 These men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.

62 Hawa walitafuta orodha za jamaa zao, lakini hawakuonekana humo, kwa hiyo waliondolewa kutoka kundi la makuhani kwa kuwa walihesabiwa kuwa najisi.

63 The governor ordered them not to eat the most holy things until there was a priest to consult the Urim and Thummim.

63 Mtawala aliagiza kuwa wasile chochote miongoni mwa vyakula vitakatifu hadi kuwe kuhani atakayehudumu kwa Urimu na Thumimu.

64 The whole assembly numbered 42,360,

68 When they arrived at the house of the LORD in Jerusalem, some of the heads of the families gave freewill offerings to rebuild the house of God on its original site.

68 Walipofika kwenye nyumba ya Bwana huko Yerusalemu, baadhi ya viongozi wa jamaa walitoa sadaka za hiari kwa ajili ya kujenga upya nyumba ya Mungu katika eneo lake.

69 According to their ability, they gave to the treasury for this work 61,000 darics of gold, 5,000 minas of silver, and 100 priestly garments.

69 Wakatoa kwa kadiri ya uwezo wao na kutia katika hazina darkoni 61,000 za dhahabu, mane 5,000 za fedha, na mavazi 100 ya ukuhani kwa ajili ya kazi hiyo.
