24And I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Sarabias, and Hasabias, and with them ten of their brethren,E de' principali sacerdoti ne separai dodici, Sarabia, e Hasabia, e altri dieci de' lor fratelli con essi:And I separated twelue of the chief Priestes, Sarabias, and Hasabias, and with them ten of theyr brethren.Et separavi de principibus sacerdotum duodecim, Sarabiam, et Hasabiam, et cum eis de fratribus eorum decem: 25And I weighed unto them the silver and gold, and the vessels consecrated for the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors, and his princes, and all Israel, that were found had offered.E consegnai loro l'argento, e l'oro a peso, e i vasi sagri della casa del nostro Dio offerti dal re, e da' suoi consiglieri, e da' suoi grandi, e da tutti gl'Israeliti, che si erano trovati (colà):And I weved vnto them the siluer and gold, and the consecrated vessels of the house of our God, which the king had offered and his counselers, and his princes, and al Israel of them, that were found:appendique eis argentum et aurum, et vasa consecrata domus Dei nostri, quæ obtulerat rex et consiliatores ejus, et principes ejus, universusque Israël eorum qui inventi fuerant: 26And I weighed to their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and a hundred vessels of silver, and a hundred talents of gold,E rimisi nelle loro mani il peso di secento cinquanta talenti d'argento, e cento vasi di argento, e cento talenti di oro:and I weyed in theyr handes of siluer six hundred fiftie talentes, and vessels of siluer an hundred, of gold an hundred talentes:et appendi in manibus eorum argenti talenta sexcenta quinquaginta, et vasa argentea centum, auri centum talenta: 27And twenty cups of gold, of a thousand solids, and two vessels of the best shining brass, beautiful as gold.E venti ciotole di oro pesanti mille dramme, e due vasi di un bronzo lucente finissimo, belli, come quelli di oro.and cuppes of gold twentie, which had a thousand solides, and two vessels of the best shyning brasse, fayre, as gold.et crateres aureos viginti, qui habebant solidos millenos, et vasa æris fulgentis optimi duo, pulchra ut aurum. 28And I said to them: You are the holy ones of the Lord, and the vessels are holy, and the silver and gold, that is freely offered to the Lord the God of our fathers.E dissi loro: Voi i santi del Signore, e santi i vasi, e l'argento, e l'oro offerto spontaneamente al Signore Dio de' padri nostri,And I sayd to them: You are the holie of our Lord, and the vessels are holie, and the siluer and gold, that is voluntarely offered to our Lord the God of our fathers:Et dixi eis: Vos sancti Domini, et vasa sancta, et argentum et aurum, quod sponte oblatum est Domino Deo patrum nostrorum:

29Watch ye and keep them, till you deliver them by weight before the chief of the priests, and of the Levites, and the heads of the families of Israel in Jerusalem, into the treasure of the house of the Lord.Custoditeli con vigilanza, per sino a tanto che il tutto rimettiate a peso al tesoro della casa del Signore in presenza de' principi de' sacerdoti, e de' Leviti, e de' capi delle famiglie in Gerusalemme.Watch & keepe it, vntil you deliuer it by weight before the princes of the Priestes, and of the Leuites, and the princes of the families of Israel in Ierusalem, into the treasure of the house of our Lord.vigilate et custodite, donec appendatis coram principibus sacerdotum, et Levitarum, et ducibus familiarum Israël in Jerusalem, in thesaurum domus Domini. 30And the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and gold, and the vessels, to carry them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.E i sacerdoti, e i Leviti ricevettero pesato l'oro, e l'argento, e i vasi per portargli a Gerusalemme alla casa del nostro Dio.And the Priestes and the Leuites receiued the weight of the siluer and gold, and of the vessels, to carie it to Ierusalem into the house of our God.Susceperunt autem sacerdotes et Levitæ pondus argenti, et auri, et vasorum, ut deferrent Jerusalem in domum Dei nostri. 31Then we set forward from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month to go to Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.Ci partimmo adunque dal fiume Ahava ai dodici del primo mese per incamminarci verso Gerusalemme: e la mano del nostro Dio fu sopra di noi e ci liberò dalla mano, e dall'insidie del nemico.We therfore did sette forward from the riuer of Ahaua the twelfth day of the first moneth to goe on to Ierusalem: and the hand of our God was vpon vs, and deliuered vs from the hand of the enemie, and the lyer in wayte by the way.Promovimus ergo a flumine Ahava duodecimo die mensis primi ut pergeremus Jerusalem: et manus Dei nostri fuit super nos, et liberavit nos de manu inimici et insidiatoris in via. 32And we came to Jerusalem, and we stayed there three days.E arrivammo a Gerusalemme, e ivi ci riposammo tre giorni.And we came to Ierusalem, and we taried there three dayes.Et venimus Jerusalem, et mansimus ibi tribus diebus. 33And on the fourth day the silver and the gold, and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Urias the priest, and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinees, and with them Jozabad the son of Josue, and Noadaia the son of Benoi, Levites.E il quarto giorno fu pesato l'argento, e l'oro, e i vasi nella casa del nostro Dio per mano di Meremoth figliuolo di Uria sacerdote, con cui era anche Eleazaro figliuolo di Phinees, e insieme con essi Jozabed figliuolo di Josuè, e Noadaia figliuolo di Bennoi, Leviti.And in the fourth day the siluer was weyed, and the gold, and the vessels in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the sonne of Vrias the Priest, and with him Eleazar the sonne of Phinees, and with them Iozabed the sonne of Iosue, and Noadaia the sonne of Bema• Leuites,Die autem quarta appensum est argentum, et aurum, et vasa in domo Dei nostri per manum Meremoth filii Uriæ sacerdotis, et cum eo Eleazar filius Phinees, cumque eis Jozabed filius Josue, et Noadaia filius Bennoi Levitæ,

34According to the number and weight of everything: and all the weight was written at that time.Tutto fu contato, e pesato: e di tutto fu fatto allora inventario.according to the number and weight of al: and al the weight was described at that tyme.juxta numerum et pondus omnium: descriptumque est omne pondus in tempore illo. 35Moreover the children of them that had been carried away that were come out of the captivity, offered holocausts to the God of Israel, twelve calves for all the people of Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve he goats for sin: all for a holocaust to the Lord.E i figliuoli della trasmigrazione tornati dalla cattività offersero olocausti al Dio d'Israele, dodici vitelli per tutto il popolo d'Israele, novantasei arieti, settantasette agnelli, e dodici capri per lo peccato: tutto questo in olocausto al Signore.Yea and the children of the transmigration that were come from the captiuitie, offered holocaustes to the God of Israel, calues twelue for al the people of Israel, rammes nyntie six, lambes seuentie seuen, buckegoates for sinne twelue: al for holocaust to our Lord.Sed et qui venerant de captivitate filii transmigrationis, obtulerunt holocautomata Deo Israël, vitulos duodecim pro omni populo Israël, arietes nonaginta sex, agnos septuaginta septem, hircos pro peccato duodecim: omnia in holocaustum Domino. 36And they gave the king’s edicts to the lords that were from the king’s court, and the governors beyond the river, and they furthered the people and the house of God.E presentarono gli editti del re ai satrapi della sua corte, e a quelli, che governavano oltre al fiume, ed ei favoreggiarono il popolo, e la casa di Dio.And they gaue the kings edictes to the princes, that were ouerseers for the king, and the dukes beyond the Riuer, and they aduanced the people and the house of God.Dederunt autem edicta regis satrapis qui erant de conspectu regis, et ducibus trans flumen, et elevaverunt populum et domum Dei.
