Numbers 10
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
2 “Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out.
“Sula malipenga awiri a siliva, ndipo uziwagwiritsa ntchito posonkhanitsa anthu pamodzi ndiponso powasamutsa mʼmisasa.
3 When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
Pamene akuliza malipenga onse awiri, anthu onse asonkhane kwa iwe pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.
4 But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.
Akaliza limodzi lokha, atsogoleri, akulu a mafuko a Aisraeli, asonkhane kwa iwe.
5 When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.
Akaliza lipenga lochenjeza, misasa yomwe ili kummawa iyambe kusamuka.
6 When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.
Akaliza lipenga lochenjeza lachiwiri, misasa yakummwera iyambe kusamuka. Kuliza kwa lipenga lochenjeza kudzakhala chizindikiro choyamba ulendo.
7 To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones.
Pofuna kusonkhanitsa anthu, muziliza malipenga, koma mosiyana ndi mmene malipenga ochenjeza amalizidwira.
8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.
“Ana a Aaroni, ansembe aja, ndiwo aziliza malipengawo. Zimenezi zikhale zokhazikika kwa inu ndi ku mibado yanu yonse.
9 When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who attacks you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and saved from your enemies.
Pamene mukupita ku nkhondo mʼdziko lanu lomwe, kulimbana ndi mdani amene akukuzunzani, muziliza malipenga ochenjeza ndipo Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakukumbukirani ndi kukulanditsani mʼmanja mwa adani anu.
10 And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”
Komanso pa nthawi yanu ya chisangalalo, pa maphwando anu oyikika ndi maphwando a mwezi watsopano, muziliza malipenga pa nsembe zanu zopsereza ndi nsembe zanu za chiyanjano, ndipo zidzakhala chikumbutso chanu pamaso pa Mulungu. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.”
11 On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle of the Testimony,
Pa chaka chachiwiri, mwezi wachiwiri, tsiku la 20, mtambo unachoka pamwamba pa chihema cha umboni.
12 and the Israelites set out from the Wilderness of Sinai, traveling from place to place until the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran.
Ndipo Aisraeli ananyamuka kuchoka mʼchipululu cha Sinai ndipo anayenda malo osiyanasiyana mpaka pamene mtambo unayima mʼchipululu cha Parani.
13 They set out this first time according to the LORD’s command through Moses.
Kameneka kanali koyamba kuti Aisraeli anyamuke monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
14 First, the divisions of the camp of Judah set out under their standard, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command.
Magulu a msasa wa Yuda ndiwo anayamba kunyamuka potsata mbendera yawo. Mtsogoleri wa gulu lawo anali Naasoni mwana wa Aminadabu.
15 Nethanel son of Zuar was over the division of the tribe of Issachar,

16 and Eliab son of Helon was over the division of the tribe of Zebulun.
Eliabu mwana wa Heloni ndiye anali mtsogoleri wa fuko la Zebuloni.
17 Then the tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonites and the Merarites set out, transporting it.
Kenaka anagwetsa chihema, ndipo Ageresoni ndi Amerari amene ananyamula chihemacho, ananyamuka.
18 Then the divisions of the camp of Reuben set out under their standard, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command.

20 and Eliasaph son of Deuel was over the division of the tribe of Gad.
ndipo Eliyasafu mwana wa Deuweli ndiye ankatsogolera fuko la Gadi.
21 Then the Kohathites set out, transporting the holy objects; the tabernacle was to be set up before their arrival.
Kenaka Akohati ananyamuka atanyamula zinthu zopatulika. Chihema chinkayenera kuyimikidwa iwo asanafike.
22 Next, the divisions of the camp of Ephraim set out under their standard, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command.
Magulu a msasa wa Aefereimu anatsatira potsatira mbendera yawo. Elisama mwana wa Amihudi ndiye anali mtsogoleri wawo.
23 Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was over the division of the tribe of Manasseh,
Gamalieli mwana wa Pedazuri ndiye anali mtsogoleri wa fuko la Manase.
24 and Abidan son of Gideoni was over the division of the tribe of Benjamin.
Abidani mwana wa Gideoni ndiye anali mtsogoleri wa mtundu wa Benjamini.
25 Finally, the divisions of the camp of Dan set out under their standard, serving as the rear guard for all units, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command.
Pambuyo pa magulu onse panali magulu a msasa wa Dani, omwe ankateteza magulu onsewa ndipo ananyamuka potsatira mbendera yawo. Mtsogoleri wawo anali Ahiyezeri mwana wa Amisadai.
26 Pagiel son of Ocran was over the division of the tribe of Asher,
Pagieli mwana wa Okirani ndiye anali mtsogoleri wa fuko la Aseri,
27 and Ahira son of Enan was over the division of the tribe of Naphtali.
ndipo mtsogoleri wa mtundu wa Nafutali anali Ahira mwana wa Enani.
28 This was the order of march for the Israelite divisions as they set out.
Umenewu ndiwo unali mndandanda wa kayendedwe ka magulu a Aisraeli pamene ankanyamuka ulendo wawo mʼmagulumagulu.
29 Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said: ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”
Ndipo Mose anawuza Hobabu mwana wa Reueli Mmidiyani, mpongozi wa Mose kuti, “Tikunyamuka kupita ku malo amene Yehova anati, ‘Ndidzakupatsani.’ Tiye upite nafe ndipo tidzakusamalira bwino, pakuti Yehova analonjeza zinthu zabwino kwa Israeli.”
30 “I will not go,” Hobab replied. “Instead, I am going back to my own land and my own people.”
Hobabu anayankha kuti, “Ayi, sindipita nanu, ndibwerera ku dziko la kwathu ndi kwa abale anga.”
31 “Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.
Ndipo Mose anati, “Pepa usatisiye popeza ukudziwa kumene tingamange misasa mʼchipululu muno ndipo udzakhala maso athu.
32 If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”
Iweyo ukapita nafe, tidzagawana nawe zinthu zabwino zomwe Yehova adzatipatsa.”
33 So they set out on a three-day journey from the mountain of the LORD, with the ark of the covenant of the LORD traveling ahead of them for those three days to seek a resting place for them.
Motero ananyamuka ku Phiri la Yehova nayenda ulendo wa masiku atatu. Bokosi la Chipangano cha Yehova linkayenda patsogolo pawo pa masiku atatuwo kuti apeze malo woti apumulepo.
34 And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day when they set out from the camp.
Mtambo wa Yehova unkawaphimba masana pamene ankasamuka pa misasa yawo.
35 Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say, “Rise up, O LORD! May Your enemies be scattered; may those who hate You flee before You.”
Nthawi iliyonse imene Bokosi la Chipangano likunyamuka, Mose ankanena kuti, “Dzukani, Inu Yehova! Adani anu abalalike; Odana nanu athawe pamaso panu.
36 And when it came to rest, he would say: “Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel.”
“Pamene likupumula, ankanena kuti, “Bwererani, Inu Yehova, ku chinamtindi cha Aisraeli.”
