Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
6 “Bweretsa fuko la Levi ndipo ulipereke kwa Aaroni wansembe kuti lizimutumikira.
“Ke ke fakaofi mai ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Livai, pea fakahā ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki koeʻuhi kenau ngāue kiate ia.
7 Azigwira ntchito yothandiza iyeyo ndi gulu lonse ku tenti ya msonkhano pogwira ntchito ya ku Chihema.
Pea tenau tokanga ki heʻene ngāue, mo e ngāue ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ke fai ki he ngāue ʻoe fale fehikitaki.

Pea tenau tauhi ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, mo e ngāue ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke fai ki he ngāue ʻoe fale fehikitaki.
9 Pereka Alevi kwa Aaroni ndi kwa ana ake aamuna. Amenewa ndiwo Aisraeli amene aperekedwa kwa iye kwathunthu.
Pea te ke foaki ʻae kau Livai kia ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha: kuo foaki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē kiate ia mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
10 Usankhe Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna kuti azitumikira pa ntchito ya unsembe. Koma wina aliyense woyandikira malo opatulika aphedwe.”
Pea te ke fakanofo ʻa ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha, pea tenau fai ʻenau ngāue fakataulaʻeiki: pea ko e muli ʻe haʻu ʻo ofi ʻe tāmateʻi ia.”
11 Yehova anawuzanso Mose kuti,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
12 “Pakati pa Aisraeli onse ndatenga Alevi kulowa mʼmalo mwa mwana wamwamuna aliyense woyamba kubadwa kwa amayi a Chiisraeli. Alevi ndi anga,
“Pea ko au, vakai, Ko au kuo ʻomi ʻae kau Livai mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke fetongi ʻaki ʻae ʻuluaki tama kotoa pē kuo ne toʻo ʻae manāva ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; ko ia ai, ʻe ʻoʻoku ʻae kau Livai;
13 pakuti ana onse oyamba kubadwa ndi anga. Nditakantha ana onse oyamba kubadwa mu Igupto, ndinadzipatulira ndekha mwana aliyense woyamba kubadwa mu Israeli, wa munthu ndi nyama. Azikhala anga. Ine ndine Yehova.”
Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻoʻoku ʻae ʻuluaki tama kotoa pē; he ko e ʻaho ne u taaʻi ai ʻae ʻuluaki fānau ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ne u fakatapui ai kiate au ʻae ʻuluaki tama ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻae tangata mo e manu; Ko au ko Sihova ʻe ʻoʻoku ʻakinautolu.”
14 Yehova anawuza Mose mʼchipululu cha Sinai kuti,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, ʻo pehē,
15 “Werenga Alevi monga mwa mabanja awo ndi mafuko awo. Werenga mwamuna aliyense kuyambira wa mwezi umodzi kapena kupitirirapo.”
Ke ke lau ʻae fānau ʻa Livai ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, mo honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻae kakai tangata kotoa pē mei hono taha māhina, ke ke lau fakaʻaufuli ʻakinautolu.

40 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti, “Werenga ana onse aamuna oyamba kubadwa mu Israeli, omwe ali ndi mwezi umodzi kapena kupitirirapo ndipo ulembe mndandanda wa mayina awo.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke lau ʻae ʻuluaki tama tangata kotoa pē ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei hono taha māhina ʻo fai hake, pea ke lau honau hingoa.
41 Unditengere Alevi onse mʼmalo mwa ana oyamba kubadwa onse a Aisraeli, ndiponso ziweto zazimuna za Alevi mʼmalo mwa ziweto zonse zazimuna zoyamba kubadwa za Aisraeli. Ine ndine Yehova.”

“ʻAve ʻae kau Livai ke fetongi ʻaki ʻae ʻuluaki tama kotoa pē ʻi hē fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; pea mo e fanga manu ʻae kau Livai ke fetongi ʻaki ʻenau fanga manu pea ko e kau Livai ʻe ʻoʻoku ʻakinautolu: Ko au ko Sihova.
46 Pofuna kuwombola ana aamuna 273 oyamba kubadwa a Aisraeli amene anaposa chiwerengero cha aamuna a fuko la Levi,
Pea koeʻuhi ko kinautolu, ʻe huhuʻi ʻae toko uangeau mo e toko fitungofulu ma toko tolu ʻoe ʻuluaki tama ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu kuo tokolahi hake ʻi he kau Livai;
47 utenge masekeli asanu pa munthu aliyense. Masekeliwo akhale ofanana ndi masekeli a ku malo wopatulika, kumene sekeli imodzi imakwanira magera makumi awiri.
Ke ke ʻave ʻa e[sikeli ]ʻe nima maʻanautolu taki taha, ʻo fakatatau ki he[sikeli ]ʻoe faletapu: (koe[sikeli ]ko e kela ʻe uofulu: )
48 Ndalama zimenezi uzipereke kwa Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna kuti ukhale mtengo woombolera Aisraeli woonjezerawo.”
Pea te ke ʻatu ʻae paʻanga, ʻaia kuo huhuʻi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻoku toe, kia ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha.”
49 Choncho Mose anatenga ndalama zowombolera zija kuchokera kwa Aisraeli amene chiwerengero chawo chinaposa chiwerengero cha omwe anawomboledwa ndi Alevi.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Mōsese ʻae paʻanga huhuʻi ʻokinautolu naʻe tokolahi hake ʻiate kinautolu naʻe huhuʻi ʻe he kau Livai:
50 Anatenga masekeli a siliva okwana 1,365 molingana ndi masekeli a ku malo opatulika, kuchokera kwa ana aamuna oyamba kubadwa a Aisraeli.
Naʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi paʻanga mei he ʻuluaki fānau ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; ko e[sikeli ]ʻe afe ma tolungeau ma onongofulu ma nima, ʻo fakatatau mo e[sikeli ]ʻoe faletapu:
51 Mose anapereka ndalama zowombolera zija kwa Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna monga mwa mawu amene Yehova analamulira.
Pea naʻe ʻatu ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi paʻanga kuo huhuʻi ʻaki ʻakinautolu kia ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, pea hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
