1 Chronicles 5
1 Now the sons of Ruben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was his firstborn: but forasmuch as he defiled his father’s bed, his first birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel, and he was not accounted for the firstborn.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni, mutabani omukulu owa Isirayiri, ye yali omubereberye, naye nayonoona obufumbo bwa kitaawe, obusika bwe ng’omuggulanda ne buweebwa batabani ba Yusufu mutabani wa Isirayiri, kyeyava tabalirwa mu byafaayo ng’omubereberye.
2 But of the race of Juda, who was the strongest among his brethren, came the princes: but the first birthright was accounted to Joseph.)
Yuda yali w’amaanyi okusinga baganda be, era mu ye mwe mwava kabaka ow’eggwanga lya Isirayiri, wabula ebyobusika eby’obuggulanda byali bya mutabani wa Yusufu omukulu.
3 The sons then of Ruben the firstborn of Israel were Enoch, and Phallu, Esron, and Charmi.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni, mutabani omukulu owa Isirayiri baali: Kanoki, ne Palu, ne Kezulooni ne Kalumi.
4 The sons of Joel: Samaia his son, Gog his son, Semei his son,
Ab’enda ya Yoweeri baali Semaaya mutabani we, ne Gogi muzzukulu we, ne Simeeyi muzzukulu we.
5 Micha his son, Reia his son, Baal his son,
Mikka yali mutabani wa Simeeyi, ne Leyaya n’aba muzzukulu we, ne Baali n’aba muzzukulu we.
6 Beera his son, whom Thelgathphalnasar king of the Assyrians carried away captive, and he was prince in the tribe of Ruben.
Mutabani wa Baali yali Beera, omukulu w’ekika ky’Abalewubeeni, Tirugazupiruneseri kabaka w’e Busuuli gwe yatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse.
7 And his brethren, and all his kindred, when they were numbered by their families, had for princes Jehiel, and Zacharias.
Baganda be ng’enda zaabwe bwe zaali be bano: Yeyeri omukulu w’ekika, Zekkaliya,
8 And Bala the son of Azaz, the son of Samma, the son of Joel, dwelt in Aroer as far as Nebo, and Beelmeon.
Bera mutabani wa Azozi, muzzukulu wa Sema, muzzukulu wa Yoweeri. Be baasenga mu Aloweri okutuuka e Nebo ne Baalu Myoni.
9 And eastward he had his habitation as far as the entrance of the desert, and the river Euphrates. For they possessed a great number of cattle in the land of Galaad.
Ate baasenga n’ebuvanjuba w’eddungu okutuukira ddala ku mugga Fulaati, kubanga amagana gaabwe gaali gaaze nnyo.
10 And in the days of Saul they fought against the Agarites, and slew them, and dwelt in their tents in their stead, in all the country, that looketh to the east of Galaad.
Awo ku mirembe gya Sawulo ne balumba Abakaguli, era Abakaguli ne bagwa mu mikono gyabwe, era bali ne beegazaanyiza mu nsi y’Abakaguli okutuukira ddala ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olw’e Gireyaadi.
11 And the children of Gad dwelt over against them in the land of Basan, as far as Selcha:
Bazzukulu ba Gaadi baabeeranga okuliraana Basani okwolekera Saleka.
12 Johel the chief, and Saphan the second: and Janai, and Saphat in Basan.
Yoweeri ye yali omukulembeze, ne Safamu nga ye mumyuka we, ate ne wabaawo ne Yanayi ne Safati mu Basani.
13 And their brethren according to the houses of their kindreds, were Michael, and Mosollam, and Sebe, and Jorai, and Jacan, and Zie, and Heber, seven.
Baganda baabwe mu nda z’abajjajjaabwe bwe baali Mikayiri, ne Mesullamu, ne Seeba, ne Yolayi, ne Yakani, ne Ziya, ne Eberi, bonna awamu musanvu.
14 These were the sons of Abihail, the son of Hurl, the son of Jara, the son of Galaad, the son of Michael, the son of Jesisi, the son of Jeddo, the son of But.
Bano be baali ab’omu nnyumba ya Abikayiri mutabani wa Kuuli, muzzukulu wa Yalowa, muzzukulu wa Gireyaadi, muzzukulu wa Mikayiri, muzzukulu wa Yesisayi, muzzukulu wa Yakudo, ne muzzukulu wa Buzi.
15 And their brethren the sons of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of the house in their families,
Aki mutabani wa Abudyeri, muzzukulu wa Guni, omukulu w’ennyumba yaabwe.
16 And they dwelt in Galaad, and in Basan and in the towns thereof, and in all the suburbs of Saron, unto the borders.
Baabeeranga mu Gireyaadi, mu Basani, ne mu bibuga byayo ebirala ne mu malundiro g’e Saloni okutuuka ku nsalo yaayo.
17 All these were numbered in the days of Joathan king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
Bino byonna byawandiikibwa mu bitabo ebyafaayo mu mirembe gya Yosamu kabaka wa Yuda, ne Yerobowaamu kabaka wa Isirayiri.
18 The sons of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half tribe of Manasses, fighting men, bearing shields, and swords, and bending the bow, and trained up to battles, four and forty thousand seven hundred and threescore that went out to war.
Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase baalina abasajja emitwalo ena mu enkumi nnya mu lusanvu mu nkaaga, ab’amaanyi era nga bazira mu kukwata engabo, ekitala, ne mu kukozesa obusaale, era nga batendeke mu kulwana.
19 They fought against the Agarites: but the Itureans, and Naphis, and Nodab,
Ne balumba Abakaguli, ne Yetuli, ne Nafisi ne Nodabu.
20 Gave them help. And the Agarites were delivered into their hands, and all that were with them, because they called upon God in the battle: and he heard them, because they had put their faith in him.
Olw’okwesiga n’okusaba Katonda okubabeera, baawangula Abakaguli mu lutalo.
21 And they took all that they possessed, of camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of men a hundred thousand souls.
Baanyaga amagana g’ente, n’eŋŋamira emitwalo etaano, n’endiga emitwalo abiri mu etaano n’endogoyi enkumi bbiri ate ne bawamba n’abasajja emitwalo kkumi.
22 And many fell down slain: for it was the battle of the Lord. And they dwelt in their stead till the captivity.
Era bangi ku bo battibwa kubanga olutalo lwali lwa Katonda. Ne basenga eyo okutuusa lwe baawaŋŋangusibwa.
23 And the children of the half tribe of Manasses possessed the land, from the borders of Basan unto Baal, Hermon, and Sanir, and mount Hermon, for their number was great.
Abantu ab’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase baali bangi nnyo, era baasenga mu nsi eya Basani okutuuka ku Baalukerumooni, ne Seniri, ne ku lusozi Kerumooni.
24 And these were the heads of the house of their kindred, Epher, and Jesi, and Eliel, and Esriel, and Jeremia, and Odoia, and Jediel, most valiant and powerful men, and famous chiefs in their families.
Bano be baali abakulu b’ennyumba zaabwe: Eferi, ne Isi, ne Eryeri, ne Azulyeri, ne Yeremiya, ne Kodaviya, ne Yakudyeri, abasajja abazira era ab’amaanyi, abettutumu, nga gy’emitwe gy’ennyumba zaabwe.
25 But they forsook the God of their fathers, and went astray after the gods of the people of the land, whom God destroyed before them.
Naye ne bakola ebibi ebimenya ebiragiro bya Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe, ne bagoberera bakatonda baamawanga ag’omu nsi eyo, Katonda be yazikiririza mu maaso gaabwe.
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Phul king of the Assyrians, and the spirit of Thelgathphalnasar king of Assur: and he carried away Ruben, and Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses, and brought them to Lahela, and to Habor, and to Ara, and to the river of Gozan, unto this day.
Katonda wa Isirayiri kyeyava akubiriza omwoyo gwa Puli kabaka w’e Bwasuli, eyayitibwanga Tirugazupiruneseri, n’alumba Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi n’ekitundu ekyali kisigaddewo ku Manase, n’abawamba era n’abatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse e Kala, n’e Kaboli, n’e Kaala ne ku mugga Gozani, gye bali n’okutuusa leero.
