< Numbers 3 >

1 Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that Jehovah spake with Moses in mount Sinai.
Yeroo Waaqayyo Tulluu Siinaa irratti Museetti dubbatetti seenaan sanyii Aroonii fi Musee kanaa dha.
2 And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the first-born, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Maqaan ilmaan Aroon: Naadaab hangafticha, Abiihuu, Eleʼaazaarii fi Iitaamaar.
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests that were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest’s office.
Kunneen maqaawwan ilmaan Aroon jechuunis luboota muudaman kanneen akka luboota taʼanii tajaajilaniif dibaman sanaa ti.
4 And Nadab and Abihu died before Jehovah, when they offered strange fire before Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children; and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the presence of Aaron their father.
Naadaabii fi Abiihuu garuu yeroo Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti ibidda hin eeyyamamin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeessanitti fuuluma isaa duratti duʼan. Isaan ilmaan tokko illee hin qaban ture. Kanaafuu Eleʼaazaarii fi Iitaamaar bara abbaan isaanii Aroon lubbuun jiraatetti luboota taʼanii tajaajilan.
5 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
6 Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister unto him.
“Gosa Lewwii fidiitii akka isaan Aroon lubicha gargaaraniif isa dura dhaabi.
7 And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Isaanis hojii dunkaana qulqulluu hojjechuudhaan waan isa irraa barbaadamuu fi waan waldaa hunda irraa barbaadamu fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti haa raawwatan.
8 And they shall keep all the furniture of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Isaan hojii dunkaana qulqulluu hojjetanii dirqama Israaʼelootaa guutuudhaan miʼa dunkaana wal gaʼii hunda haa eegan.
9 And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given unto him on the behalf of the children of Israel.
Lewwota sana Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenni; isaan warra saba Israaʼel keessaa guutumaan guutuutti isatti kennamanii dha.
10 And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall keep their priesthood: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
Ati akka isaan luboota taʼanii tajaajilaniif Aroonii fi ilmaan isaa muudi; namni biraa kan iddoo qulqulluu sanatti dhiʼaatu garuu ajjeefamuu qaba.”
11 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
12 And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the first-born that openeth the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine:
“Kunoo ani Israaʼeloota keessaa qooda dhiira hangafa dubartoota Israaʼel hundaa Lewwota fudhadheera. Lewwonni kan koo ti;
13 for all the first-born are mine; on the day that I smote all the first-born in the land of Egypt I hallowed unto me all the first-born in Israel, both man and beast; mine they shall be: I am Jehovah.
hangafti hundinuu kan kootii. Ani yeroo biyya Gibxi keessatti hangafa hunda ajjeesetti hangafa Israaʼel hunda jechuunis namas taʼu horii ofii kootiif addaan baafadheera. Isaan kan koo taʼan. Ani Waaqayyo.”
14 And Jehovah spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Waaqayyo Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
15 Number the children of Levi by their fathers’ houses, by their families: every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them.
“Lewwota maatii isaaniitii fi balbala isaaniitiin lakkaaʼi. Dhiira jiʼa tokkoo yookaan hammasii olii hunda lakkaaʼi.”
16 And Moses numbered them according to the word of Jehovah, as he was commanded.
Museen akkuma dubbiin Waaqayyoo isa ajajetti isaan lakkaaʼe.
17 And these were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.
Kunneen maqaawwan ilmaan Lewwii ti: Geershoon, Qohaatii fi Meraarii.
18 And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families: Libni and Shimei.

20 And the sons of Merari by their families: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites according to their fathers’ houses.
Balbalawwan Meraarotaa: Mahilii fi Muusii. Kunneen akkuma maatii isaaniitti balbalawwan Lewwotaa ti.
21 Of Gershon was the family of the Libnites, and the family of the Shimeites: these are the families of the Gershonites.
Balbalawwan Liibnii fi Shimeʼii kan Geershoon turan; isaanis balbalawwan Geershoonotaa ti.
22 Those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, even those that were numbered of them were seven thousand and five hundred.
Baayʼinni dhiirota umuriin isaanii jiʼa tokkoo fi hammasii olii kanneen lakkaaʼaman hundaa 7,500 ture.
23 The families of the Gershonites shall encamp behind the tabernacle westward.
Balbalawwan Geershoonotaa karaa lixa biiftuutiin dunkaana qulqulluu dugda duubaan qubatan.
24 And the prince of the fathers’ house of the Gershonites shall be Eliasaph the son of Lael.
Hoogganaan balbalawwan Geershoonotaas Eliyaasaaf ilma Laaʼel ture.
25 And the charge of the sons of Gershon in the tent of meeting shall be the tabernacle, and the Tent, the covering thereof, and the screen for the door of the tent of meeting,
Itti gaafatamni Geershoononni dunkaana wal gaʼii keessatti qabanis dunkaana qulqulluu, dunkaanaa fi irra buusaa isaa, golgaa balbala dunkaana wal gaʼii irra jiru,
26 and the hangings of the court, and the screen for the door of the court, which is by the tabernacle, and by the altar round about, and the cords of it for all the service thereof.
golgaawwan oobdii, golgaa balbala dallaa kan dunkaana qulqulluu fi iddoo aarsaatti naannaʼee jiru, funyoo fi tajaajila akkanaa kennu hunda eeguu ture.
27 And of Kohath was the family of the Amramites, and the family of the Izharites, and the family of the Hebronites, and the family of the Uzzielites: these are the families of the Kohathites.
Balbalawwan Amraamotaa, Yizihaarotaa, Kebroonotaa fi Uziiʼeelotaa balbalawwan Qohaatii ti; isaanis balbalawwan Qohaatotaa turan.
28 According to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, there were eight thousand and six hundred, keeping the charge of the sanctuary.
Baayʼinni dhiirota jiʼa tokkoo fi hammasii olii hundaa 8,600 ture. Qohaatonni iddoo qulqulluu sana eeguutti itti gaafatamtoota turan.
29 The families of the sons of Kohath shall encamp on the side of the tabernacle southward.
Balbalawwan Qohaatotaa karaa kibba dunkaana qulqulluutiin qubatan.
30 And the prince of the fathers’ house of the families of the Kohathites shall be Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.
Hoogganaan maatiiwwan balbalawwan Qohaatotaas Eliisaafaan ilma Uziiʼeel ture.
31 And their charge shall be the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary wherewith they minister, and the screen, and all the service thereof.
Isaanis taabota, minjaala, baattuu ibsaa, iddoowwan aarsaa, miʼa iddoo qulqulluu ittiin tajaajilan, golgaa fi wantoota tajaajila akkanaa kennan hunda eeguutti itti gaafatamtoota turan.
32 And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be prince of the princes of the Levites, [and have] the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary.
Hoogganaan Lewwotaa hangafti Eleʼaazaar ilma Aroon lubichaa ture. Innis warra itti gaafatamtoota eegumsa iddoo qulqulluu turan sana irratti dibame.
33 Of Merari was the family of the Mahlites, and the family of the Mushites: these are the families of Merari.
Balbalawwan Mahelootaa fi Muusotaa kan Meraarii turan; isaanis balbalawwan Meraarotaa ti.
34 And those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, were six thousand and two hundred.
Baayʼinni dhiirota umuriin isaanii jiʼa tokkoo fi hammasii olii kanneen lakkaaʼaman hundaa 6,200 ture.
35 And the prince of the fathers’ house of the families of Merari was Zuriel the son of Abihail: they shall encamp on the side of the tabernacle northward.
Hoogganaan maatiiwwan balbalawwan Meraarotaas Zuriiʼel ilma Abiihaayilii ti; isaanis karaa kaaba dunkaana qulqullummaatiin qubatan.
36 And the appointed charge of the sons of Merari shall be the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and the sockets thereof, and all the instruments thereof, and all the service thereof,
Meraaronnis tuggeewwan dunkaana qulqulluu, dagaleewwan isaa, utubaawwan isaa, miillawwan isaa, miʼa isaa hundaa fi wantoota tajaajila akkanaa kennan hunda,
37 and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords.
akkasumas utubaawwan oobdii sanatti naannaʼanii jiran, miillawwan isaanii, qofoo dunkaanaa fi funyoowwan isaa eeguuf muudaman.
38 And those that encamp before the tabernacle eastward, before the tent of meeting toward the sunrising, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
Museen, Aroonii fi ilmaan Aroon dunkaana qulqulluu irraa karaa baʼaa, qixa baʼa biiftuutiin fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii dura qubatan. Isaanis iddoo Israaʼelootaa buʼanii iddoo qulqulluu eeguutti itti gaafatamtoota turan. Namni biraa kan iddoo qulqulluu sanatti dhiʼaatu haa ajjeefamu.
39 All that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of Jehovah, by their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty and two thousand.
Lewwonni lakkaaʼaman hundi kanneen Musee fi Aroon ajaja Waaqayyootiin akkuma balbala balbala isaaniitti lakkaaʼan, dhiironni jiʼa tokkoo fi hammasii olii hundi 22,000 turan.
40 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Number all the first-born males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Dhiirota Israaʼel hangafoota kanneen jiʼa tokkootii fi hammasii olii hunda lakkaaʼii maqaa isaanii barreessi.
41 And thou shalt take the Levites for me (I am Jehovah) instead of all the first-born among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel.
Qooda ijoollee Israaʼel kanneen hangafa taʼan hundaa Lewwota naa fudhadhu; qooda ilmaan hangafa horii Israaʼelootaa hundaas horii Lewwotaa naa fudhadhu. Ani Waaqayyo.”
42 And Moses numbered, as Jehovah commanded him, all the first-born among the children of Israel.
Museen akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajajetti hangafoota Israaʼel hunda lakkaaʼe.
43 And all the first-born males according to the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen.
Dhiironni hangafoonni jiʼa tokkoo fi hammasii olii kanneen maqaa maqaan barreeffaman hundii 22,273 turan.
44 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
45 Take the Levites instead of all the first-born among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am Jehovah.
“Qooda ijoollee Israaʼel kanneen hangafa taʼan hundaa Lewwota fudhadhu; qooda horii Israaʼelootaas horii Lewwotaa fudhadhu. Lewwonni kan koo ti. Ani Waaqayyo.
46 And for the redemption of the two hundred and threescore and thirteen of the first-born of the children of Israel, that are over and above [the number of] the Levites,
Israaʼeloota hangafoota 273 kanneen baayʼina Lewwotaa caalan furuuf,
47 thou shalt take five shekels apiece by the poll; after the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them (the shekel is twenty gerahs):
tokkoo tokkoo isaaniitiif akkuma madaalii saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti saqilii shan shan fuudhi; saqiliin tokko geeraa digdama.
48 and thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of them is redeemed, unto Aaron and to his sons.
Maallaqa Israaʼeloota dabalaman furuuf fuudhame sanas Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenni.”
49 And Moses took the redemption-money from them that were over and above them that were redeemed by the Levites;
Museen maallaqa sana Israaʼeloota lakkoobsaan warra Lewwotaan furamaniin ol taʼan sana irraa fuudhe.
50 from the first-born of the children of Israel took he the money, a thousand three hundred and threescore and five [shekels], after the shekel of the sanctuary:
Innis akka madaalii saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti meetii saqilii 1,365 ulfaattu Israaʼeloota hangafa irraa fuudhe.
51 and Moses gave the redemption-money unto Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of Jehovah, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
Museenis akkuma dubbii Waaqayyootti, akkuma Waaqni Musee ajajetti maallaqa furii sana Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenne.
