Numbers 3
1 These are the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day when the Lord spoke to Moses on mount Sinai.
Ma e nonro mar joka Harun kod Musa e kinde mane Jehova Nyasaye owuoyo gi Musa e Got Sinai.
2 And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: his firstborn Nadab, then Abihu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Nying yawuot Harun ne gin Nadab ma wuowi makayo kod Abihu, Eliazar kod Ithamar.
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed and whose hands were filled and consecrated in order to exercise the priesthood.
Mago ema ne nying yawuot Harun, mane gin jodolo mowir kendo mopwodhi mondo obed jodolo.
4 For Nadab and Abihu died without children, when they offered, in the sight of the Lord, a strange fire, in the desert of Sinai. And so, Eleazar and Ithamar exercised the priesthood in the sight of Aaron, their father.
Kata kamano Nadab kod Abihu, notho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye e kinde mane gichiwo misango ma ok opwodhi e Thim mar Sinai. Ne gionge yawuowi; omiyo Eliazar gi Ithamar kende ema nobedo jodolo e ndalo mane Harun wuon-gi pod ngima.
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
6 “Bring forward the tribe of Levi, and cause them to stand in the sight of Aaron the priest, in order to minister to him. And let them keep watch outside,
“Kel dhood jo-Lawi kendo ichiwgi e nyim jadolo Harun mondo gikonye tich.
7 and let them observe whatever pertains to the ritual for the multitude, in front of the tabernacle of the testimony,
Nyaka gitine kaachiel gi oganda duto e nyim Hemb Romo ka gitiyo tije mag kama ler.
8 and let them take care of the vessels of the tabernacle, serving in its ministry.
Nyaka girit malongʼo gige Hemb Romo duto, ka gichopo chike duto mag jo-Israel monego gitim e Hemb Romo.
9 And you shall give the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons; for they have been delivered to them by the sons of Israel.
Chiw jo-Lawi e lwet Harun gi yawuote nikech gin e joma owal e dhood Israel mondo okonye tich.
10 But you shall appoint Aaron and his sons over the service of the priesthood. The outsider who approaches to minister shall be put to death.”
Yier Harun kod yawuote mondo obed jodolo; ngʼato angʼata mosudo machiegni gi kama ler mar lemo nyaka negi.”
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Jehova Nyasaye nomedo wachone Musa niya,
12 “I have taken the Levites from the sons of Israel. For the Levites, and all the firstborn who open the womb among the sons of Israel, shall be mine.
“Asekawo jo-Lawi koa ei jo-Israel e lo wuowi makayo mar chi ja-Israel moro ka moro. Jo-Lawi gin meka,
13 For every firstborn is mine. From the time that I struck the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I have sanctified for myself whatever is born first in Israel. From man, even to beast, they are mine. I am the Lord.”
nimar yawuowi makayo duto gin meka. Kane anego yawuowi makayo duto e piny Misri, ne awalo ne an awuon kayo moro amora e Israel, obed mar dhano kata mar le mondo gibed maga. An e Jehova Nyasaye.”
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, saying:
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa e Thim mar Sinai niya,
15 “Number the sons of Levi by the houses of their fathers and their families, every male from one month and above.”
“Kwan jo-Lawi kaluwore gi joutgi kod anywolagi. Kwan chwo duto chakre ja-dwe achiel kadhi nyime.”
16 Moses numbered them, just as the Lord had instructed,
Omiyo Musa nokwanogi, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nomiye chik.
17 and there were found the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon and Kohath and Merari.
Magi ema ne nyinge yawuot jo-Lawi: Gershon, Kohath gi Merari.
18 The sons of Gershon: Libni and Shimei.
Magi ema ne nying joka Gershon: Libni gi Shimei.
19 The sons of Kohath: Amram, and Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel.
Joka Kohath ne gin: Amram, Izhar, Hebron gi Uziel.
20 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi.
Joka Merari ne gin: Mali gi Mushi. Magi ema ne anywola jo-Lawi, kaluwore gi dhoutgi.
21 From Gershon were two families: the Libnites, and the Shimeites.
Koa e dhood Gershon, ne nitiere jo-Libni gi Shimei; mago ema ne joka Gershon.
22 The people of these were numbered, of the male sex, from one month and above: seven thousand five hundred.
Kar romb chwo duto kochakore ja-dwe achiel kadhi nyime noromo ji alufu abiriyo mia abich.
23 These shall encamp behind the tabernacle, toward the west,
Dhout jo-Gershon nonego dag yo podho chiengʼ mar kama ler.
24 under the leader Eliasaph the son of Lael.
Jatend Gershon ne en Eliasaf wuod Lael.
25 And they shall keep watch over the tabernacle of the covenant:
Tij jo-Gershon e Kar Hemb Romo ne en rito Kama Ler mar Lemo kod hema, kaachiel gi gik moumego, kaka pasia mantiere e dhorangach mar Hemb Romo.
26 the tabernacle itself, and its covering; the tent that is drawn before the doors of the covering of the covenant; and the curtains of the atrium; likewise, the tent that is suspended at the entrance of the atrium of the tabernacle; and whatever pertains to the ritual of the altar; the cords of the tabernacle and all its implements.
Bende negirito pasia mag laru, pasia mar dhorangach mar laru molworo kama ler gi kendo mar misango kod tonde, kaachiel gi gik moko duto mitwechogo.
27 The kinship of Kohath includes the peoples of the Amramites and Izharites and Hebronites and Uzzielites. These are the families of the Kohathites, having been counted by their names,
E dhood Kohath ne nitiere jo-Amram, jo-Izhar, jo-Hebron, jo-Uziel; magi ema ne anywola joka Kohath.
28 all those of the male gender, from one month and above: eight thousand six hundred. They shall keep watch over the Sanctuary,
Kar romb chwo duto kochakore ja-dwe achiel kadhi nyime ne romo ji alufu aboro mia auchiel. Tij jo-Kohath ne en rito kama ler mar lemo.
29 and they shall encamp toward the south side.
Dhood Kohath nonego dagi yo milambo mar kama ler.
30 And their leader shall be Elisaphan the son of Uzziel.
Jatend dhout jo-Kohath ne en Elizafan wuod Uziel.
31 And they shall take care of the ark, and the table and the lampstand, the altars and the vessels of the Sanctuary, by which they minister, and the veil, and all the articles of this kind.
Tijgi ne en rito Sandug Muma, mesa, rachungi mar taya, kende mag misengini, gige kama ler mar lemo mitiyogo tije dolo, pasia, kod gik moko duto mitiyogo tijego.
32 But the leader of the leaders of the Levites, Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, shall be over those who watch over the care of the Sanctuary.
Jatelo maduongʼ mar jo-Lawi ne en Eliazar wuod Harun jadolo. En ema ne oyiere bedo jatelo mag joma rito kama ler mar lemo.
33 And truly, from Merari are the peoples of the Mahlites and Mushites, having been counted by their names,
E dhood Merari ne nitiere jo-Mali kod jo-Mushi; magi ema anywola joka Merari.
34 all those of the male gender, from one month and above: six thousand two hundred.
Kar romb chwo duto kochakore ja-dwe achiel kata moloyo dwe achiel mane okwan ne romo ji alufu auchiel mia ariyo.
35 Their leader is Suriel the son of Abihaiel. They shall make camp on the north side.
Jatend dhout Merari ne en Zuriel wuod Abihail. Nonego gidagi yo nyandwat mar kama ler.
36 Under their care shall be the panels of the tabernacle, and the bars, and the columns with their bases, and all the things which pertain to service of this kind,
Joka Merari noyier mondo orit sirni mag kama ler mar lemo, yiend reru, sirni mamoko, mise, kaachiel gi gige duto kod gik moko duto mitiyogo kanyo,
37 and the columns of the surrounding atrium with their bases, and the tent pegs with their cords.
kaachiel gi sirni mochungʼ molworo laru man-gi mise, sigingi mag hema kod tonde.
38 Moses and Aaron, with their sons, shall make camp before the tabernacle of the covenant, that is, on the east side, holding the custody of the Sanctuary in the midst of the sons of Israel. Whatever foreigner approaches it shall die.
Musa kod Harun gi yawuote nonego dagi yo wuok chiengʼ mar Hemb Romo. Tijgi ne en rito kama ler mar lemo e lo jo-Israel. Ngʼato angʼata mane osudo machiegni gi kama ler mar lemo nyaka ne negi.
39 All the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered by their families according to the precept of the Lord, of the male gender, from one month and above, were twenty-two thousand.
Kar romb jo-Lawi duto mane okwan kaluwore gi chik mane Jehova Nyasaye ogolo kokadho kuom Musa kod Harun kaluwore gi anywolagi ne gin ji alufu piero ariyo gariyo, magi ne gin kaachiel gi nyithindo duto ma yawuowi kochakore ja-dwe achiel kadhi nyime.
40 And the Lord said to Moses: “Number the firstborn of the male sex from the sons of Israel, from one month and above, and you shall take their total.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Kwan nyithindo ma yawuowi makayo duto mag Israel kochakore ja-dwe achiel kadhi nyime kendo indik nyingegi piny.
41 And you shall bring the Levites to me, in place of all the firstborn of the sons of Israel, and you shall bring their cattle to me, in place of all the firstborn of the cattle of the sons of Israel. I am the Lord.”
Ket jo-Lawi obedna kaka kayo e lo kayo duto mag jo-Israel, kendo kaw jamb jo-Lawi obed e lo kweth makayo mag jamb jo-Israel. An e Jehova Nyasaye.”
42 Moses took a census, just as the Lord had instructed, of the firstborn of the sons of Israel.
Omiyo Musa nokwano nyithindo makayo duto mag jo-Israel, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike.
43 And the males by their names, from one month and above, were twenty-two thousand two hundred seventy-three.
Kar romb nyithindo ma yawuowi duto makayo ma ja-dwe achiel kadhi nyime, kondik nying-gi moro ka moro ne romo ji alufu piero ariyo gariyo, mia ariyo gi piero abiriyo gadek.
44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Jehova Nyasaye nochako owachone Musa niya,
45 “Take the Levites, in place of the firstborn of the sons of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites, in place of their cattle, and so the Levites shall be mine. I am the Lord.
“Ket jo-Lawi mondo obedna kaka kayo e lo jo-Israel, kendo jamni mag jo-Lawi e lo jambgi. Jo-Lawi nyaka bed maga. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
46 But for the price of the two hundred and seventy-three, which exceed the number of the Levites compared to the number of firstborn of the sons of Israel,
Mondo omi ires jo-Israel makayo ji mia ariyo piero adek gabiriyo ma kwan-gi ohewo kwan midwaro mar jo-Lawi,
47 you shall take five shekels for each head, by the measure of the Sanctuary. A shekel has twenty obols.
chok shekel abich ne ngʼato ka ngʼato, kaluwore gi shekel mar kama ler mar lemo, ma pekne romo gera piero ariyo.
48 And you shall give the money to Aaron and his sons as the price of those that are in excess.”
Mi Harun kod yawuote pesa miwarogo jo-Israel momedore.”
49 Therefore, Moses took the money for those that were in excess, and whom they had redeemed from the Levites
Omiyo Musa nochoko pesa kuom joma ne omedore e kwan mane jo-Lawi oreso.
50 in place of the firstborn of the sons of Israel: one thousand three hundred sixty-five shekels, according to the weight of the Sanctuary.
Koa kuom kayo mag jo-Israel nochoko fedha ma pekne en shekel alufu mia achiel mia adek gi piero auchiel gabich, kaluwore gi shekel mar kama ler mar lemo.
51 And he gave it to Aaron and his sons, according to the word by which the Lord had instructed him.
Musa nochiwo ne Harun kod yawuote pesa miwarogo jo-Israel momedore mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike.
