Chronicles I 5
1 And the sons of Ruben the first-born of Israel (for he [was] the first-born; but because of his going up to his father's couch, [his father] gave his blessing to his son Joseph, [even] the son of Israel; and he was not reckoned as first-born;
Wana wa Rubeni mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Israeli - sasa Rubeni alikuwa mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Israeli, lakini haki yake ya mzaliwa wa kwanza ilipewa kwa wana wa Yusufu mwana wa Israeli kwa sababu Rubeni alinajisi kochi la baba yake. Hivyo hajanakiliwa kama mwana wa kwanza.
2 for Judas [was] very mighty even among his brethren, and one was to be a ruler out of him: but the blessing [was] Joseph's).
Yuda alikuwa mwenye nguvu kuliko kaka zake, na kiongozi ata toka kwake. Lakini haki ya mzaliwa wa kwanza ilikuwa ya Yusufu -
3 The sons of Ruben the first-born of Israel; Enoch, and Phallus, Asrom, and Charmi.
wana wa Rubeni, mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Israeli alikuwa Hanoki, Palu, Hezroni, na Karmi.
4 The sons of Joel; Semei, and Banaia his son: and the sons of Gug the son of Semei.
Uzao wa Yoeli ulikuwa huu: Mwana wa Yoeli alikuwa Shemaia. Mwana wa Shemaia alikuwa Gogi. Mwana wa Gogi alikuwa Shimei.
5 His son [was] Micha, his son Recha, his son Joel,
Mwana wa Shimei alikuwa Mika. Mwana wa Mika alikuwa Reaia. Mwana wa Reaia alikuwa Baali.
6 his son Beel, whom Thagla-phallasar king of Assyria carried away captive: he [is] the chief of the Rubenites.
Mwana wa Baali alikuwa Bera, ambaye Tiligathi Pileseri alimpeleka matekani kule Assiria. Bera alikuwa kiongozi katika kabila la Rubeni.
7 And his brethren in his family, in their distribution according to their generations; the chief, Joel, and Zacharia.
Ndugu wa Bera kwa makabila yao ni hawa wafuatao, wameorodheshwa katika nakala za uzao wao: Yeieli wa kwanza, Zekaria, na
8 And Balec the son of Azuz, the son of Sama, the son of Joel: he dwelt in Aroer, and even to Naban, and Beelmasson.
Bela mwana wa Azazi mwana wa Shema mwana wa Yoeli. Waliishi Aroeri, kwa umbali wa Nebo na Baali Meoni,
9 And he dwelt eastward to the borders of the wilderness, from the river Euphrates: for they had much cattle in the land of Galaad.
na mwanzo wa mashariki mwa jangwa lenye umbali wa hadi Mto Efarati. Hii ni kwa sababu walikuwa na mifugo mingi katika nchi ya Gileadi.
10 And in the days of Saul they made war upon the sojourners [in the land]; and they fell into their hands, all of them dwelling in their tents eastward of Galaad.
Katika siku za Sauli, kabila la Rubeni lilishambulia Wahagiri na kuwa shinda. Wakaishi ndani ya hema za Wahagiri katika nchi yote mashariki mwa Gileadi.
11 The sons of Gad dwelt over against them in the land of Basan even to Sela.
Kabila la Gadi liliishi karibu nao, katika nchi ya Bashani umbali wa Saleka.
12 Joel the first-born, and Sapham the second, and Janin the scribe in Basan.
Viongozi wao walikuwa Yoeli, aliyekuwa kichwa wa ukoo, na Shafamu alikuwa kichwa wa ukoo mwingine, na Yanai na Shafati walikuwa wa Bashani.
13 And their brethren according to the houses of their fathers; Michael, Mosollam, and Sebee, and Joree, and Joachan, and Zue, and Obed, seven.
Ndugu zao, kwa familia za baba yao, walikuwa Mikaeli, Meshulamu, Sheba, Yorai, Yakani, na Eberi - jumla saba wote.
14 These [are] the sons of Abichaia the son of Uri, the son of Idai, the son of Galaad, the son of Michael, the son of Jesai, the son of Jeddai, the son of Buz,
Hawa watu walio tajwa hapo juu ni uzao wa Abihaili, na Abihaili alikuwa mwana wa Huri. Huri alikuwa mwana w a Yaroa. Yaroa alikuwa mwana wa Gileadi. Gileadi alikuwa mwana wa Mikaeli. Mikaeli alikuwa mwana wa Yeshishai. Yeshishai alikuwa mwana wa Yado. Yado alikuwa mwana wa Buzi.
15 [who was] the brother of the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, [he was] chief of the house of their families.
Ahi mwana wa Abidieli mwana wa Guni, alikuwa kichwa cha familia ya baba yake.
16 They dwelt in Galaad, in Basan, and in their villages, and [in] all the country round about Saron to the border.
Waliishi Gileadi, Bashani, katika miji, na katika nchi zote za malisho ya Sharoni kwa umbali wa mipaka yake.
17 The enumeration of [them] all took place in the days of Joatham king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
Hawa wote waliorodheshwa katika nakaka za uzao katika siku za Yothamu mfalme wa Yuda na Yeroboamu mfalme wa Israeli.
18 The sons of Ruben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasse, of mighty men, bearing shields and sword, and bending the bow, and skilled in war, [were] forty and four thousand and seven hundred and sixty, going forth to battle.
Warubeni, Wagadi, na nusu ya kabila la Manase walikuwa na wana jeshi elfu arobaini na nne walio fuzu kwa vita, walio beba ngao na upanga, na pinde na mishale.
19 And they made war with the Agarenes, and Itureans, and Naphiseans, and Nadabeans,
Waliwashambulia Wahagri, Yeturi, Nafishi, na Nodabu.
20 and they prevailed against them: and the Agaraeans were given into their hands, [they] and all their tents: for they cried to God in the battle, and he hearkened to them, because they trusted on him.
Walipokea msaada wa Kimungu dhidi yao. Katika hili Wahagri na wote walio kuwa nao walishindwa. Hii ni kwa sababu Waisraeli walipaza sauti katika vita, na yeye akawajibu, kwa sababu waliweka tumaini lao kwake.
21 And they took captive their store; five thousand camels, and two hundred and fifty thousand sheep, two thousand asses, and a hundred thousand men.
Walikamata wanya wao, pamoja na ngamia elfu hamsini, kondoo 250, 000, punda elfu mbili, na wanaume 100, 000.
22 For many fell slain, because the war [was] of God. And they dwelt in their place until the captivity.
Kwa sababu Mungu aliwapigania, waliua maadui wengi. Waliishi katika nchi yao mpaka mateka.
23 And the half-tribe of Manasse dwelt from Basan to Baal, Ermon, and Sanir, and [to] the mount Aermon: and they increased in Libanus.
Baadhi ya watu wa kabila la Manase waliishi katika nchi ya Bashani kwa umbali wa Hermoni na Seniri (hiyo ni, Mlima Hermoni).
24 And these were the heads of the houses of their families; Opher, and Sei, and Eliel, and Jeremia, and Oduia, and Jediel, mighty men of valour, men of renown, heads of the houses of their families.
Hawa walikuwa viongozi wa familia zao: Eferi, Ishi, Elieli, Azrieli, Yeremia, Hodavia, na Yahdieli. Walikuwa wenye nguvu na wanaume wa jasiri, wanaume maharufu, viongozi wa familia zao.
25 But they rebelled against the God of their fathers, and went a-whoring after the gods of the nations of the land, whom God cast out from before them.
Lakini walikuwa sio wa aminifu kwa Mungu wa babu zao. Badala yake, waliabudu miungu ya watu waio nchi, ambao Mungu aliwaangamiza mbele yao.
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Phaloch king of Assyria, and the spirit of Thagla-phallasar king of Assyria, and carried away Ruben and Gaddi, and the half-tribe of Manasse, and brought them to Chaach, and Chabor, and to the river Gozan, until this day.
Mungu wa Israeli alimchochea Puli mfalme wa Assiria ( ambaye pia uitwa Tiligathi Pileseri, mfalme wa Assiria). Aliwa peleka matekani Warubeni, Wagadi, na nusu ya kabila la Manase. Aliwaleta kwa Hala, Habori, Hara, na kwenye mto wa Gozani, ambapo wapo adi leo.
