Numbers 26
1 After the plague had ended, the LORD said to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron the priest,
Utatha mliri Yehova anati kwa Mose ndi Eliezara mwana wa Aaroni,
2 “Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by the houses of their fathers—all those twenty years of age or older who can serve in the army of Israel.”
“Werengani Aisraeli onse mwa mabanja awo, onse a zaka makumi awiri kapena kuposera pamenepo omwe angathe kugwira ntchito ya usilikali mʼgulu lankhondo la Israeli.”
3 So on the plains of Moab by the Jordan, across from Jericho, Moses and Eleazar the priest issued the instruction,
Kotero mu zigwa za Mowabu pafupi ndi mtsinje wa Yorodani ku Yeriko, Mose ndi wansembe Eliezara anayankhula nawo kuti,
4 “Take a census of the men twenty years of age or older, as the LORD has commanded Moses.” And these were the Israelites who came out of the land of Egypt:
“Werengani amuna a zaka makumi awiri kapena kuposera pamenepo, monga momwe Yehova walamulira Mose.” Aisraeli omwe anachokera ku Igupto ndi awa:

8 Now the son of Pallu was Eliab,
Mwana wa Palu anali Eliabu,
9 and the sons of Eliab were Nemuel, Dathan, and Abiram. It was Dathan and Abiram, chosen by the congregation, who fought against Moses and Aaron with the followers of Korah who rebelled against the LORD.

10 And the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them along with Korah, whose followers died when the fire consumed 250 men. They serve as a warning sign.
Nthaka inangʼambika ndi kuwameza pamodzi ndi Kora, kotero kuti gulu lawo linafa pamene moto unapsereza anthu 250 aja, nasanduka chenjezo.
11 However, the line of Korah did not die out.

Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
53 “The land is to be divided among the tribes as an inheritance, according to the number of names.
“Uwagawire dziko anthu awa kuti likhale cholowa chawo molingana ndi chiwerengero cha mayina awo.
54 Increase the inheritance for a large tribe and decrease it for a small one; each tribe is to receive its inheritance according to the number of those registered.
Gulu lalikulu ulipatse cholowa chachikulu, ndipo lochepa cholowa chocheperapo. Gulu lililonse lilandire cholowa chake molingana ndi chiwerengero cha amene anawerengedwa.
55 Indeed, the land must be divided by lot; they shall receive their inheritance according to the names of the tribes of their fathers.
Dzikolo uligawe pochita maere. Alandire cholowa chawocho potsata mayina a mafuko a makolo awo.
56 Each inheritance is to be divided by lot among the larger and smaller tribes.”

59 and Amram’s wife was named Jochebed. She was also a daughter of Levi, born to Levi in Egypt. To Amram she bore Aaron, Moses, and their sister Miriam.
Dzina la mkazi wa Amramu linali Yokobedi, mdzukulu wa Levi, yemwe anabadwa mwa Alevi mu Igupto. Yokobedi anaberekera Amramu Aaroni, Mose ndi Miriamu mlongo wawo.
60 Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar were born to Aaron,
Aaroni anali abambo a Nadabu, Abihu, Eliezara ndi Itamara.
61 but Nadab and Abihu died when they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD.
Koma Nadabu ndi Abihu anafa pamene anapereka nsembe pamaso pa Yehova ndi moto wachilendo).
62 The registration of the Levites totaled 23,000, every male a month old or more; they were not numbered among the other Israelites, because no inheritance was given to them among the Israelites.
Alevi onse aamuna a mwezi umodzi kapena kuposera pamenepa analipo 23,000. Iwowo sanawerengedwe pamodzi ndi Aisraeli ena chifukwa sanalandire cholowa pakati pawo.
63 These were the ones numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest when they counted the Israelites on the plains of Moab by the Jordan, across from Jericho.
Awa ndi amene anawerengedwa ndi Mose ndi Eliezara wansembe pamene ankawerenga Aisraeli pa zigwa za ku Mowabu mʼmbali mwa Yorodani ku Yeriko.
64 Among all these, however, there was not one who had been numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest when they counted the Israelites in the Wilderness of Sinai.
Mwa anthu amenewa panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene anali mʼgulu la Aisraeli omwe Mose ndi wansembe Aaroni anawawerenga mʼchipululu cha Sinai;
65 For the LORD had told them that they would surely die in the wilderness. Not one was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
Chifukwa Yehova anali atawuza Aisraeliwo kuti adzafera ndithu mʼchipululu, ndipo palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene anatsala kupatula Kalebe mwana wa Yefune ndi Yoswa mwana wa Nuni.
