< Numbers 3 >

1 And these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that Jehovah spoke with Moses on mount Sinai.
Pa inge fwilin tulik natul Aaron ac Moses ke pacl se LEUM GOD El tuh kaskas nu sel Moses Fineol Sinai.
2 And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Oasr wen akosr natul Aaron: Nadab pa matu emeet, na Abihu, Eleazar, ac Ithamar.
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed priests, who were consecrated to exercise the priesthood.
Elos akmusrala ac akmutalyeyukla nu ke orekma lun mwet tol.
4 And Nadab and Abihu died before Jehovah when they offered strange fire before Jehovah in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no sons; and Eleazar and Ithamar exercised the priesthood in the presence of Aaron their father.
Tusruktu Nadab ac Abihu eltal misa ke sripen eltal tuh orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD yen mwesis Sinai, ke sie e ma tia mutal. Wangin tulik natultal, ke sripa se inge Eleazar ac Ithamar eltal oru orekma lun mwet tol ke lusen pacl Aaron el moul.
5 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
6 Bring the tribe of Levi near, and present them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister unto him;
“Kuhlma sruf lal Levi nu meet uh, ac srisrngelosi tuh elos in mwet kulansap lal Aaron mwet tol.
7 and they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole assembly, before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Elos ac fah oru orekma ma eneneyuk nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sik, ac kulansupu mwet tol oayapa mwet Israel nukewa.
8 And they shall keep all the utensils of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Elos ac fah karingin kufwen mwe orekma nukewa ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, ac oru orekma ke inen mwet Israel nukewa.
9 And thou shalt give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given to him out of the children of Israel.
Pwayena ma kunen mwet Levi pa in kulansupal Aaron ac wen natul.
10 And Aaron and his sons shalt thou appoint that they may attend to their priest's office; and the stranger that cometh near shall be put to death.
Kom fah srisrngilya Aaron ac wen natul in oru orekma lun mwet tol; kutena mwet saya su srike in orekma kac ac fah anwuki.”
11 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
12 And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of every firstborn that breaketh open the womb among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine;
“Inge nga eis mwet Levi liki inmasrlon mwet Israel tuh elos in eis acn sin wounse nukewa nutin mwet Israel. Ouinge mwet Levi nukewa elos ma nutik,
13 for every firstborn is mine. On the day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both of man and beast; mine shall they be: I am Jehovah.
tuh wounse nukewa ma nutik. Ke nga tuh uniya wounse mukul nukewa nutin mwet Egypt, na nga akmutalye wounse mukul nukewa nutin mwet Israel tuh in ma nutik — kewana mwet ac kosro; elos fah ma nutik. Nga, LEUM GOD.”
14 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
In acn Mwesis Sinai LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses
15 Number the sons of Levi according to their fathers' houses, after their families; every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them.
elan oakla mwet Levi fal nu ke kais sie sifen sou lulap lalos, ac elan simusla inen mukul nukewa ma malem seyak matwa.
16 And Moses numbered them, according to the commandment of Jehovah, — as he had been commanded.
Na Moses el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin.
17 And these are the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.
Pa inge inen wen tolu natul Levi: Gershon, Kohath, ac Merari. Elos pa matu in sou lulap lalos, su fwilin tulik natulos ekin.

23 The families of the Gershonites encamped behind the tabernacle westward.

24 And the prince of the father's house of the Gershonites was Eliasaph the son of Lael.

25 And the charge of the sons of Gershon in the tent of meeting was: the tabernacle and the tent, its covering, and the curtain of the entrance to the tent of meeting.

28 According to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, there were eight thousand six hundred, who kept the charge of the sanctuary.
Pisa lulap ke mukul malem seyak matwa in sou lulap se inge oasr ke tausin oalkosr ac onfoko.
29 The families of the sons of Kohath encamped on the side of the tabernacle southward.
Elos inge pa ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos layen eir ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal,
30 And the prince of the father's house of the families of the Kohathites was Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.

31 And their charge was the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the utensils of the sanctuary with which they ministered, and the curtain, and all that belongs to its service.
Ma kunen mwet in sou lulap lal Kohath in karinganang Tuptup in Wuleang, tepu, sukan lam, loang uh, ahlu nukewa ma mwet tol elos orekmakin in Acn Mutal, ac mwe lisrlisr ke acn in utyak nu ke Acn Mutal Na Mutal. Elos pa ac fosrngakin orekma nukewa ma kupasr nu ke ma inge.

37 and the pillars of the court round about, and their bases, and their pegs, and their cords.
Oayapa elos pa ac fosrngakin sru uh, kapin sru uh, kwi ac sucl nu ke kalkal lik ah.
38 And those who encamped before the tabernacle eastward, before the tent of meeting toward the sunrising, were Moses, and Aaron and his sons, who kept the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh near shall be put to death.
Moses, Aaron ac wen natul pa ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos mutun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, layen kutulap. Ma kunalos in oru orekma nukewa in Acn Mutal nu sin mwet Israel. Kutena mwet saya su srike in oru orekma inge ac tufah anwuki.
39 All that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of Jehovah, according to their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
Pisa lulap ke mukul Levi nukewa su malem seyak matwa, su Moses el oakla ke kais sie sou lulap, fal nu ke ma LEUM GOD El tuh sapkin, oasr ke tausin longoul luo.
40 And Jehovah said to 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.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses: “Oakla wounse mukul nukewa nutin mwet Israel ma malem seyak matwa, ac simusla inelos.
41 And thou shalt take the Levites for me (I am Jehovah) instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites, instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel.
Tusruktu, in aol wounse nukewa inge, nga fah eis mwet Levi tuh in ma nutik. Nga LEUM GOD. Ac nga fah eis kosro nutin mwet Levi in aol wounsien kosro nukewa nutin mwet Israel.”
42 And Moses numbered, as Jehovah had commanded him, all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
Ouinge Moses el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac oakla wounse mukul nukewa
43 And all the firstborn males, by the number of the names, from a month old and upward, according to their numbering, were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three.

44 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
45 Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am Jehovah.
“Kom fah eis mwet Levi tuh elos in ma nutik in aol wounsien mwet Israel nukewa, ac eis kosro nukewa nutin mwet Levi in ma nutik, aoliyen wounsien kosro nukewa nutin mwet Israel. Nga LEUM GOD fahk ouinge.
46 And for those that are to be ransomed, the two hundred and seventy-three of the firstborn of the children of Israel, which are in excess over the Levites,
Ke sripen wounsien mwet Israel pus liki mwet Levi ke mwet luofoko itngoul tolu, kom enenu in moli nu sik lupa yolyak sac.
47 thou shalt take five shekels apiece by the poll, according to the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them, — twenty gerahs the shekel;
Molin kais sie selos pa ipin silver limekosr, fal nu srikasrak oakwuki nu kac.
48 and thou shalt give the money unto Aaron and unto his sons for those in excess among them who are to be ransomed.
Kom fah sang mani inge nu sel Aaron ac wen natul.”

Ouinge, Moses el akos ac eisani
50 of the firstborn of the children of Israel he took the money, a thousand three hundred and sixty-five [shekels], according to the shekel of the sanctuary.
