وَهَذِهِ هِيَ مَوَالِيدُ هَروُنَ وَمُوسَى يَوْمَ خَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ: ١ 1
Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day when the word of the Lord came to Moses on Mount Sinai.
هَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ هَرُونَ: نَادَابُ الْبِكْرُ، وَأَبِيهُو، وَأَلِعَازَارُ، وَإِيثَامَارُ، ٢ 2
These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the oldest, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
الَّذِينَ كَانُوا كَهَنَةً مَمْسُوحِينَ تَكَرَّسُوا لِلْكَهَنُوتِ. ٣ 3
These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests, on whom the holy oil was put, who were marked out as priests.
إِلّا أَنَّ نَادَابَ وَأَبِيهُو مَاتَا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّبِّ عِنْدَمَا قَرَّبَا نَاراً غَرِيبَةً أَمَامَهُ فِي صَحْرَاءِ سِينَاءَ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا بَنُون. وَأَمَّا أَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ فَقَدْ قَامَا بِخِدْمَةِ الْكَهَنُوتِ تَحْتَ رِعَايَةِ أَبِيهِمَا هَرُونَ. ٤ 4
And Nadab and Abihu were put to death before the Lord when they made an offering of strange fire before the Lord, in the waste land of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar did the work of priests before Aaron their father.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ٥ 5
And the Lord said to Moses,
«أَحْضِرْ سِبْطَ لاوِي لِيَمْثُلُوا أَمَامَ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ وَيَخْدِمُوهُ. ٦ 6
Make the tribe of Levi come near, and put them before Aaron the priest, to be his helpers,
وَيُحَافِظُوا عَلَى شَعَائِرِهِ وَشَعَائِرِ كُلِّ الشَّعْبِ أَمَامَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَقُومُوا بِخِدْمَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ، ٧ 7
In order that they may be responsible to him and to all Israel for the care of the Tent of meeting, and to do the work of the House;
وَيَحْرُسُوا كُلَّ أَمْتِعَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَنُوبُوا عَنِ الشَّعْبِ فِي تَأْدِيَةِ وَاجِبَاتِ خِدْمَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ. ٨ 8
And they will have the care of all the vessels of the Tent of meeting, and will do for the children of Israel all the necessary work of the House.
وَلْيَكُنِ اللّاوِيُّونَ تَحْتَ إِمْرَةِ هَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ هِبَةً لَهُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٩ 9
Give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; so that they may be his without question from among the children of Israel.
أَمَّا هَرُونُ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ فَهُمْ وَحْدُهُمْ يَقُومُونَ بِخِدْمَةِ الْكَهَنُوتِ، وَأَيُّ وَاحِدٍ سِوَاهُمْ يَقْتَرِبُ مِنَ الْمَقْدِسِ يُقْتَلُ». ١٠ 10
And give orders that Aaron and his sons are to keep their place as priests; any strange person who comes near is to be put to death.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ١١ 11
And the Lord said to Moses,
«هَا إِنِّي قَدْ أَفْرَزْتُ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بَدَلاً مِنْ أَبْكَارِ الشَّعْبِ، فَيَكُونُ اللّاوِيُّونَ خَاصَّتِي، ١٢ 12
See, I have taken the Levites out of the children of Israel to be mine in place of the first sons of the children of Israel;
لأَنَّ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ مِنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ لِي. فَقَدْ أَفْرَزْتُ لِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَهْلَكْتُ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. لِي يَكُونُونَ. أَنَا الرَّبُّ». ١٣ 13
For all the first sons are mine; on the day when I put to death all the first sons in the land of Egypt, I took for myself every first male birth of man and beast. They are mine; I am the Lord.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى فِي صَحْرَاءِ سِينَاءَ: ١٤ 14
And the Lord said to Moses in the waste land of Sinai,
«أَحْصِ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ سِبْطِ لاوِي مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ وَعَشَائِرِهِمْ». ١٥ 15
Let all the children of Levi be numbered by their families and their fathers' houses; let every male of a month old and over be numbered.
فَأَحْصَاهُمْ مُوسَى وَفْقاً لأَمْرِ الرَّبِّ. ١٦ 16
So Moses did as the Lord said, numbering them as he had been ordered.
وَهَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ لاوِي: جَرْشُونُ وَقَهَاتُ وَمَرَارِي. ١٧ 17
These were the sons of Levi by name: Gershon and Kohath and Merari.
أَمَّا اسْمَا ابْنَيْ جَرْشُونَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمَا، فَهُمَا: لِبْنِي وَشِمْعِي ١٨ 18
And these are the names of the sons of Gershon, by their families: Libni and Shimei.
وَبَنُو قَهَاتَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ هُمْ: عَمْرَامُ وَيِصْهَارُ وَحَبْرُونُ وَعُزِّيئِيلُ. ١٩ 19
And the sons of Kohath, by their families: Amram and Izhar and Hebron and Uzziel.
وَابْنَا مَرَارِي حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمَا هُمَا مَحْلِي وَمُوشِي. هَذِهِ هِيَ عَشَائِرُ اللّاوِيِّينَ وَفْقاً لِبُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ. ٢٠ 20
And the sons of Merari by their families: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites in the order of their fathers' houses.
فَقَدْ تَفَرَّعَ عَنْ جَرْشُونَ عَشِيرَتَا اللِّبْنِيِّينَ وَالشِّمْعِيِّينَ. هَاتَانِ هُمَا عَشِيرَتَا الْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ. ٢١ 21
From Gershon come the Libnites and the Shimeites; these are the families of the Gershonites.
وَكَانَ عَدَدُ الذُّكُورِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْهُمَا مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ وَمَا فَوْقُ، سَبْعَةَ آلافٍ وَخَمْسَ مِئَةٍ. ٢٢ 22
Those who were numbered of them, the males from one month old and over, were seven thousand, five hundred.
وَقَدْ خَيَّمَتْ عَشِيرَتَا الْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ وَرَاءَ الْمَسْكَنِ إِلَى الْغَرْبِ، ٢٣ 23
The tents of the Gershonites are to be placed at the back of the House, to the west.
وَكَانَ رَئِيسُهُمَا أَلِيَاسَافَ بْنَ لايِلَ ٢٤ 24
The chief of the Gershonites is Eliasaph, the son of Lael.
وَعُهِدَ إِلَى الْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ بِحِرَاسَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ فِي خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَالْخَيْمَةِ وَغِطَائِهَا وَسَتَائِرِ بَابِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، ٢٥ 25
In the Tent of meeting, the Gershonites are to have the care of the House, and the Tent with its cover, and the veil for the door of the Tent of meeting,
وَسَتَائِرِ الدَّارِ وَسِتَارَةِ بَابِ الدَّارِ الَّتِي حَوْلَ الْمَسْكَنِ وَحَوْلَ جَوَانِبِ الْمَذْبَحِ وَحِبَالِهِ مَعَ كُلِّ خِدْمَتِهِ. ٢٦ 26
And the hangings for the open space round the House and the altar, and the curtain for its doorway, and all the cords needed for its use.
وَتَفَرَّعَ عَنْ قَهَاتَ عَشَائِرُ الْعَمْرَامِيِّينَ وَالْيِصْهَارِيِّينَ وَالْحَبْرُونِيِّينَ وَالْعُزِّيئِيلِيِّينَ. هَذِهِ هِيَ عَشَائِرُ الْقَهَاتِيِّينَ. ٢٧ 27
From Kohath come the Amramites and the Izharites and the Hebronites and the Uzzielites; these are the families of the Kohathites.
فَكَانَ عَدَدُ الذُّكُورِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْهُمْ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، ثَمَانِيَةَ آلافٍ وَسِتَّ مِئَةٍ. وَمُهِمَّتُهُمْ حِرَاسَةُ الْقُدْسِ. ٢٨ 28
Those who were numbered of them, the males from one month old and over, were eight thousand, six hundred, who were responsible for the care of the holy place.
وَتُخَيِّمُ عَشَائِرُ بَنِي قَهَاتَ فِي جَنُوبِيِّ الْمَسْكَنِ، ٢٩ 29
The tents of the Kohathites are to be placed on the south side of the House.
وَكَانَ رَئِيسُهَا أَلِيصَافَانَ بْنَ عُزِّيئِيلَ. ٣٠ 30
Their chief is Elizaphan, the son of Uzziel.
وَهُمْ يَتَوَلَّوْنَ حِرَاسَةَ التَّابُوتِ وَالْمَائِدَةِ وَالْمَنَارَةِ وَالْمَذْبَحَيْنِ وَأَمْتِعَةِ الْقُدْسِ الَّتِي يَخْدُمُونَ بِها، وَالْحِجَابِ وَكُلِّ مَا يَتَعَلَّقُ بِهِ. ٣١ 31
In their care are the ark, and the table, and the lights, and the altars, and all the vessels used in the holy place, and the veil, and all they are used for.
أَمَّا رَئِيسُ رُؤَسَاءِ اللّاوِيِّينَ أَلِعَازَارُ بْنُ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ فَيَتَوَلَّى أَيْضاً أَمْرَ حُرَّاسِ حِرَاسَةِ الْقُدْسِ. ٣٢ 32
Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, will be head over all the Levites and overseer of those responsible for the care of the holy place.
وَتَفَرَّعَ عَنْ مَرَارِي عَشِيرَتَا الْمَحْلِيِّينَ وَالْمُوشِيِّينَ. هَاتَانِ هُمَا عَشِيرَتَا مَرَارِي. ٣٣ 33
From Merari come the Mahlites and the Mushites; these are the families of Merari.
فَكَانَ عَدَدُ الذُّكُورِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْهُمَا مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، سِتَّةَ آلافٍ وَمِئَتَيْنِ، ٣٤ 34
Those who were numbered of them, the males of a month old and over, were six thousand, two hundred.
وَرَئِيسُهُمَا صُورِيئِيلُ بْنُ أَبِيحَايِلَ. وَتُخَيِّمَانِ إِلَى شِمَالِيِّ الْمَسْكَنِ. ٣٥ 35
The chief of the families of Merari was Zuriel, the son of Abihail: their tents are to be placed on the north side of the House.
وَمُهِمَّةُ أَبْنَاءِ مَرَارِي حِرَاسَةُ أَلْوَاحِ الْمَسْكَنِ وَعَوَارِضِهِ وَقَوَاعِدِهَا وَكُلِّ أَوَانِيهِ وَالْعِنَايَةُ بِها، ٣٦ 36
And in their care are to be all the boards of the Tent, with their rods and pillars and bases, and all the instruments, and all they are used for,
وَأَعْمِدَةِ جَوَانِبِ الدَّارِ وَقَوَاعِدِهَا وَأَوْتَادِهَا وَحِبَالِهَا. ٣٧ 37
And the pillars of the open space round it, with their bases and nails and cords.
أَمَّا مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ فَيَنْزِلُونَ قُدَّامَ الْمَسْكَنِ إِلَى الشَّرْقِ لِيَقُومُوا بِحِرَاسَةِ الْمَقْدِسِ نِيَابَةً عَنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَيُّ وَاحِدٍ سِوَاهُمْ يَقْتَرِبُ مِنْهُ يُقْتَلُ. ٣٨ 38
And those whose tents are to be placed on the east side of the House in front of the Tent of meeting, looking to the dawn, are Moses and Aaron and his sons, who will do the work of the holy place for the children of Israel; and any strange person who comes near will be put to death.
فَكَانَ مَجْمُوعُ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْ ذُكُورِ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، الَّذِينَ أَحْصَاهُمْ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ، اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً. ٣٩ 39
All the Levites numbered by Moses and Aaron at the order of the Lord, all the males of one month old and over numbered in the order of their families, were twenty-two thousand.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «أَحْصِ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، وَدَوِّنْ أَسْمَاءَهُمْ جَمِيعاً، ٤٠ 40
And the Lord said to Moses, Let all the first male children be numbered, and take the number of their names.
فَتَفْرِزُ لِيَ اللّاوِيِّينَ، أَنَا الرَّبُّ، لِيَكُونُوا لِي بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَذَلِكَ بَهَائِمَ اللّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَهَائِمِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٤١ 41
And give to me the Levites (I am the Lord) in place of the first sons of the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites in place of the first births among the cattle of the children of Israel.
فَأَحْصَى مُوسَى أَبْكَارَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ الرَّبُّ، ٤٢ 42
So Moses had all the first sons among the children of Israel numbered, as the Lord said to him.
فَكَانَ مَجْمُوعُ عَدَدِ الذُّكُورِ الأَبْكَارِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ، كُلٍّ بِاسْمِهِ، مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً وَمِئَتَيْنِ وَثَلاثَةً وَسَبْعِينَ. ٤٣ 43
Every first son from a month old and over was numbered by name, and the number came to twenty-two thousand, two hundred and seventy-three.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ٤٤ 44
And the Lord said to Moses,
«أَفْرِزِ اللّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَذَلِكَ بَهَائِمَ اللّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ بَهَائِمِهِمْ، فَيَكُونَ اللّاوِيُّونَ خَاصَّتِي، أَنَا الرَّبَّ. ٤٥ 45
Take the Levites in place of all the first sons of the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites in place of their cattle; the Levites are to be mine; I am the Lord.
وَأَمَّا فِدَاءُ الْمِئَتَيْنِ وَالثَّلاثَةِ وَالسَّبْعِينَ مِنْ أَبْكَارِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ، ٤٦ 46
And the price you have to give for the two hundred and seventy-three first sons of the children of Israel which are in addition to the number of the Levites,
فَتَأْخُذُ عَنْ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ خَمْسَةَ شَوَاقِلَ (نَحْوَ سِتِّينَ جِرَاماً) مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ وَفْقاً لِلْوَزْنِ الْمُعْتَمَدِ فِي الْقُدْسِ فَيَكُونُ كُلُّ عِشْرِينَ جِيرَةً مُعَادِلَةً لِشَاقِلٍ (أَيْ لاثْنَيْ عَشَرَ جِرَاماً). ٤٧ 47
Will be five shekels for every one, by the scale of the holy place (the shekel is twenty gerahs);
وَتُعْطِي الْفِضَّةَ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ فِدْيَةً عَنِ الأَبْكَارِ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ» ٤٨ 48
And this money, the price of those over the number of the Levites, is to be given to Aaron and his sons.
فَجَمَعَ مُوسَى فِضَّةَ الْفِدْيَةِ مِنَ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ فِدَاءً لَهُمْ. ٤٩ 49
So Moses took the money, the price of those whose place had not been taken by the Levites;
جَبَاهَا مِنْ أَبْكَارِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَكَانَتْ أَلْفاً وَثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسَةً وَسِتِّينَ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ عَلَى شَاقِلِ الْقُدْسِ (نَحْوَ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ كِيلُو جِرَاماً وَثُلْثٍ). ٥٠ 50
From the first sons of Israel he took it, a thousand, three hundred and sixty-five shekels, by the scale of the holy place;
وَأَعْطَى مُوسَى فِضَّةَ الْفِدْيَةِ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ. ٥١ 51
And he gave the money to Aaron and his sons, as the Lord had said.
