Numeri 9
1 Yehova anayankhula ndi Mose mʼchipululu cha Sinai pa mwezi woyamba wa chaka chachiwiri atatuluka mu Igupto, nati,
And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
2 “Aisraeli azichita Paska pa nthawi yake yoyikika.
Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.
3 Muzichita Paska pa nthawi yake yoyikika, madzulo a tsiku la 14 la mwezi uno, potsata malamulo ndi malangizo ake.”
In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof, shall ye keep it.
4 Choncho Mose anawuza Aisraeli kuti azichita Paska,
And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
5 ndipo anachitadi Paskayo mʼchipululu cha Sinai madzulo a tsiku la 14 la mwezi woyamba. Aisraeli anachita zonse monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 Koma ena a iwo sanathe kuchita nawo Paska pa tsiku limenelo chifukwa anali odetsedwa chifukwa chokhudza mtembo. Choncho anabwera kwa Mose ndi Aaroni tsiku lomwelo,
And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:
7 ndipo anawuza Moseyo kuti, “Ife tadetsedwa chifukwa cha mtembo wa munthu. Nʼchifukwa chiyani taletsedwa kupereka nsembe kwa Yehova pamodzi ndi Aisraeli ena pa nthawi yake?”
And those men said unto him, We [are] defiled by the dead body of a man: wherefore are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the LORD in his appointed season among the children of Israel?
8 Mose anawayankha kuti, “Dikirani mpaka nditamva zimene Yehova walamula zokhudza Inu.”
And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.
9 Ndipo Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
10 “Uza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Pamene wina mwa inu kapena zidzukulu zanu adetsedwa chifukwa chokhudza mtembo wa munthu, kapena akakhala pa ulendo, akhoza kuchita nawo Paska ya Yehova.
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or [be] in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto the LORD.
11 Azichita chikondwererochi madzulo a pa tsiku la 14 la mwezi wachiwiri. Azidya mwana wankhosa wamwamuna pamodzi ndi buledi wopanda yisiti ndi ndiwo zowawa zamasamba.
The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, [and] eat it with unleavened bread and bitter [herbs].
12 Iwo asasiye nyama ina iliyonse mpaka mmawa. Asaswe mafupa aliwonse. Pamene akuchita chikondwerero cha Paska, atsate malangizo onse.
They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
13 Koma ngati munthu wina ali woyeretsedwa ndipo sali pa ulendo koma alephera kuchita Paska, munthu ameneyo achotsedwe pakati pa anthu a mtundu wake chifukwa sanabweretse chopereka cha Yehova pa nthawi yake. Munthu ameneyo adzalangidwa chifukwa cha tchimo lake.
But the man that [is] clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of the LORD in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
14 “‘Mlendo amene akukhala pakati panu, nafuna kuchita nawo Paska ya Yehova, achite nawo motsata malamulo ndi malangizo ake. Muzikhala ndi malangizo ofanana a Paska; mbadwa kapena mlendo.’”
And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto the LORD; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
15 Pa tsiku limene anayimika chihema, tenti ya umboni, mtambo unaphimba chihemacho. Kuyambira madzulo mpaka mmawa, mtambo umene unali pamwamba pa chihemacho unkaoneka ngati moto.
And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, [namely], the tent of the testimony: and at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning.
16 Zinkachitika motere mosalekeza: mtambo unkakhala pamwamba pa chihema, ndipo usiku unkaoneka ngati moto.
So it was alway: the cloud covered it [by day], and the appearance of fire by night.
17 Nthawi ina iliyonse mtambo ukachoka pamwamba pa chihema, Aisraeli ankasamukanso, ndipo paliponse pamene mtambo wayima, Aisraeli ankamangapo misasa.
And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched their tents.
18 Aisraeli ankasamuka pamalopo Yehova akawalamula, ndipo ankamanganso misasa Iyeyo akawalamula. Nthawi yonse imene mtambowo wayima pa chihema, ankakhalabe mʼmisasa yawo.
At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the LORD they pitched: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents.
19 Mtambowo ukakhala pa chihema nthawi yayitali, Aisraeli ankasungabe lamulo la Yehova ndipo iwo sankasamukanso.
And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not.
20 Nthawi zina mtambowo unkakhala pa chihemapo masiku owerengeka. Aisraeli ankamanga misasa molamulidwa ndi Yehova ndipo ankasamukanso molamulidwa ndi Iyeyo.
And [so] it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to the commandment of the LORD they abode in their tents, and according to the commandment of the LORD they journeyed.
21 Nthawi zina mtambo unkakhala kuyambira madzulo mpaka mmawa ndipo unkachoka mmawa mwake, ankasamuka. Kaya ndi masana kapena usiku, pamene mtambo wachoka, ankasamuka.
And [so] it was, when the cloud abode from even unto the morning, and [that] the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether [it was] by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
22 Ngakhale mtambo ukhale pa chihema masiku awiri kapena mwezi kapena chaka, Aisraeli ankakhalabe pa msasa osachoka. Koma ukachoka, ankasamuka.
Or [whether it were] two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, remaining thereon, the children of Israel abode in their tents, and journeyed not: but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
23 Molamulidwa ndi Yehova ankamanga misasa yawo ndipo ankasamukanso Yehova akawalamula. Ankamvera lamulo la Yehova kudzera mwa Mose.
At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
