Numbers 3
1 These are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the Lord spoke to Moses in mount Sinai.
Sinai mae ah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah lokthuih naah, hae ih kaminawk loe Aaron hoi Mosi ih caanawk ah oh o.
2 And these the names of the sons of Aaron: his firstborn Nadab, then Abiu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Aaron caanawk ih ahmin loe calu ah Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar hoi Ithamar.
3 These the names of the sons of Aaron the priests that were anointed, and whose hands were filled and consecrated, to do the functions of priesthood.
Hae kaminawk loe qaima toksak hanah ampa mah situi bawh moe, pahoe ih Aaron caanawk ih ahmin ah oh.
4 Now Nadab and Abiu died, without children, when they offered strange fire before the Lord, in the desert of Sinai: and Eleazar and Ithamar performed the priestly office in the presence of Aaron their father.
Nadab hoi Abihu loe, Sinai praezaek ah sak koi ai kalah hmai hoi angbawnhaih a sak hoi pongah, Angraeng hmaa ah duek hoi hmaek; nihnik loe caa tawn hoi ai; to pongah Eleazar hoi Ithanar to ampa Aaron hmaa ah qaima tok a sak hoi.
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
6 Bring the tribe of Levi, and make them stand in the sight of Aaron the priest to minister to him, and let them watch,
Levi acaengnawk to kawk loe, Aaron ih toksak hanah, anih hmaa ah caeh haih ah.
7 And observe whatsoever appertaineth to the service of the multitude before the tabernacle of the testimony,
Nihcae loe Aaron hoi kahni im ah amkhueng kaminawk ih kangaih tok to, amkhuenghaih kahni im hmaa ah sah o tih.
8 And let them keep the vessels of the tabernacle, serving in the ministry thereof.
Nihcae loe kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im ih hmuenmaenawk boih khen o ueloe, Israel kaminawk mah sak han koi tok to sah o tih.
9 And thou shalt give the Levites for a gift,
Levi kaminawk to Aaron hoi a caanawk khaeah paek ah; Israel caanawk thung hoi qoi ah loe anih khaeah paek boih ah.
10 To Aaron and to his sons, to whom they are delivered by the children of Israel. But thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons over the service of priesthood. The stranger that approacheth to minister, shall be put to death.
Aaron hoi anih ih caanawk doeh qaima toksak hanah paek ah; hmuenciim taengah kacaeh minawk kalah loe dueksak han oh, tiah a naa.
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
12 I have taken the Levites from the children of Israel, for every firstborn that openeth the womb among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
khenah, Israel kaminawk thung hoi tapen calu boih zuengah, Israel kaminawk thung hoi Levi kaminawk to ka qoih boeh pongah, Levi kaminawk loe kai ih ni;
13 For every firstborn is mine: since I struck the firstborn in the land of Egypt: I have sanctified to myself whatsoever is firstborn in Israel both of man and beast, they are mine: I am the Lord.
tapen tangsuek hmuen boih loe kai ih ni; Izip prae thungah tapen tangsuek ka hum boih naah, Israel prae thungah loe tapen tangsuek to kai hanah pahoe o pongah, to hmuennawk loe kai ih hmuen ah oh o; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, saying:
Angraeng mah Sinai praezaek ah Mosi khaeah,
15 Number the sons of Levi by the houses of their fathers and their families, every male from one month and upward.
Levi acaengnawk boih to kroek ah, khrah to pacoeng ranui bang kaom nihcae thung ih nongpanawk to kroek boih hanah a thuih pae.
16 Moses numbered them as the Lord had commanded.
To pongah Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah nihcae to kroek.
17 And there were found sons of Levi by their names, Gerson and Caath and Merari.
Levi kaminawk ih ahmin loe Gershon, Kohath hoi Merari.
18 The sons of Gerson: Lebni and Semei.
Gershon kaminawk ih ahmin loe Libni hoi Shimei.
19 The sons of Caath: Amram, and Jesaar, Hebron and Oziel:
Kohath acaengnawk ih ahmin loe Amram, Izehar, Hebron hoi Uzziel.
20 The sons of Merari: Moholi and Musi.
Merari acaengnawk ih ahmin loe Mahli hoi Mushi. Hae kaminawk loe angmacae acaeng thung hoiah kroek ih Levi acaeng ah oh hoi.
21 Of Gerson were two families, the Lebnites, and the Semeites:
Gershon khae hoi tacawt, Libni hoi Shimei ih caanawk loe Gershon ih acaeng ah oh o.
22 Of which were numbered, people of the male sex from one month and upward, seven thousand five hundred.
Khrah to pacoeng ranui bang kaom nongpa to kroek boih naah, sangqum boih ah, sang sarih, cumvai pangato oh o.
23 These shall pitch behind the tabernacle on the west,
Gershon ih caanawk loe niduem bang kahni im hnukah om o tih.
24 Under their prince Eliasaph the son of Lael.
Lael capa Eliasaph loe Gershon imthung takoh zaehoikung ah oh.
25 And their charge shall be in the tabernacle of the covenant:
Gershon kaminawk mah sak han koi tok loe, kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im, im hoi anui padihhaih ahmuen, kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im akunhaih thok taengah payang ih kahninawk,
26 The tabernacle itself and the cover thereof, the hanging that is drawn before the doors of the tabernacle of the covenant, and the curtains of the court: the hanging also that is hanged in the entry of the court of the tabernacle, and whatsoever belongeth to the rite of the altar, the cords of the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof.
longhmaa ah payang ih kahninawk, kahni im hoi hmaicam longhma taengah payang ih kahninawk, longhma akunhaih thok taengah payang ih kahninawk, zaenghaih quinawk boih loe nihcae mah khen o tih.
27 Of the kindred of Caath come the families of the Amramites and Jesaarites and Hebronites and Ozielites. These are the families of the Caathites reckoned up by their names:
Kohath hoi tacawt Amram caanawk, Izehar caanawk, Hebron caanawk hoi Uzziel caanawk loe, Kohath ih acaeng ah oh o.
28 All of the male sex from one month and upward, eight thousand six hundred: they shall have the guard of the sanctuary,
Khrah to pacoeng ranui bang kaom nongpanawk to kroek boih naah, sang tazetto pacoeng, cumvai tarukto oh o; nihcae loe hmuenciim khenzawnkung ah oh o.
29 And shall camp on the south side.
Kohath imthung takoh ih caanawk loe kahni im aloih bangah om o tih.
30 And their prince shall be Elisaphan the son of Oziel:
Uzziel capa Elizaphan loe Kohath imthung takoh zaehoikung ah oh.
31 And they shall keep the ark, and the table and the candlestick, the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary, wherewith they minister, and the veil, and all the furniture of this kind.
Nihcae loe Sithaw lokkamhaih thingkhong, caboi, hmaithawk, hmaicamnawk, angmacae toksakhaih hmuenciim thung ih laom sabaenawk, payang ih kahninawk hoi hmuennawk boih khenzawnkung ah oh o.
32 And the prince of the princes of the Levites, Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, shall be over them that watch for the guard of the sanctuary.
Aaron capa qaima Eleazar loe Levi kaminawk zaehoikung ah oh; anih loe hmuenciim toep kaminawk khenzawnkung ah oh.
33 And of Merari are the families of the Moholites, and Musites, reckoned up by their names:
Merari khae hoiah tacawt; Mahli hoi Mushi caanawk loe, Merari ih acaeng ah oh o.
34 All of the male kind from one month and upward, six thousand two hundred.
Khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom nongpa to kroek boih naah, sang tarukto pacoeng, cumvai palito oh o.
35 Their prince Suriel the son of Abihaiel: they shall camp on the north side.
Abihail capa Zureil loe Merari imthung takoh zaehoikung ah oh; nihcae loe kahni im aluek bangah om o tih.
36 Under their custody shall be the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars, and the pillars and their sockets, and all things that pertain to this kind of service:
Merari ih caanawk mah sak o han koi toknawk loe, kahni im sakhaih thingnawk, pakhang ih thingnawk, tungnawk, tung padoethaih hmuennawk, laom sabaenawk hoi kalah patoh ih hmuennawk boih,
37 And the pillars of the court round about with their sockets, and the pins with their cords.
imthung longhma taeng ih tungnawk, tung angdoethaih ahmuennawk, kahni im komhaih quinawk hoi takhuekhaih sumnawk khenzawnkung ah om o tih.
38 Before the tabernacle of the covenant, that is to say on the east side, shall Moses and Aaron camp, with their sons, having the custody of the sanctuary, in the midst of the children of Israel. What stranger soever cometh unto it, shall be put to death.
Mosi hoi Aaron ih caanawk loe ni angyae bang ih kahni im ahma hoi rangpui amkhuenghaih kahni im hma ah om o tih; nihcae loe Israel kaminawk zuengah hmuenciim khenzawnkung ah oh o; hmuenciim taengah angzo kalah kami loe paduek han oh.
39 All the Levites, that Moses and Aaron numbered according to the precept of the Lord, by their families, of the male kind from one month and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
Angraeng mah paek ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi hoi Aaron mah khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom nihcae imthung takoh ih, nongpanawk to kroek boih naah, Levi acaengnawk loe sangqum boih ah, sing hnet, sang hnetto oh o.
40 And the Lord said to Moses: Number the firstborn of the male sex of the children of Israel, from one month and upward, and thou shalt take the sum of them.
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Israel caanawk thungah khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom nongpa to kroek o boih ah loe, nihcae ih ahmin to tarik ah.
41 And thou shalt take the Levites to me for all the firstborn of the children of Israel, I am the Lord: and their cattle for all the firstborn of the cattle of the children of Israel:
Israel kaminawk ih calu boih zuengah, Levi kaminawk to la ah loe, Israel kaminawk ih tapen tangsuek moinawk zuengah, Levi kaminawk ih maitaw to kai hanah la ah; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
42 Moses reckoned up, as the Lord had commanded, the firstborn of the children of Israel:
To pongah Angraeng mah paek ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah sak moe, Israel ih calu to kroek boih.
43 And the males by their names, from one month and upward, were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three.
Khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom, calu to kroek boih moe, nihcae ih ahmin to lak naah, sing hnet, sang hnet qui sarih, thumto oh o.
44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saving:
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
45 Take the Levites for the firstborn of the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites for their cattle, and the Levites shall be mine. I am the Lord.
Israel calunawk boih zuengah, Levi kaminawk to la ah loe, nihcae ih maitaw zuengah, Levinawk ih maitaw to la ah; Levinawk loe kai ih kami ah ni oh o; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh.
46 But for the price of the two hundred and seventy-three, of the firstborn of the children of Israel, that exceed the number of the Levites,
Levi kaminawk pong pop, Israel calu cumvai hnet, qui sarih, thumto akrang ah, tiah a naa.
47 Thou shalt take five sides for every head, according to the weight of the sanctuary. A sicle hath twenty obols.
Gerah pumphaeto kazit, hmaicam ah patoh ih tahhaih shekel baktih toengah, kami maeto khaeah shekel pangato la ah;
48 And then shalt give the money to Aaron and his sons, the price of them that are above.
kamtlai Israel kaminawk akranghaih phoisa to Aaron hoi a caanawk khaeah paek ah.
49 Moses therefore took the money of them that were above, and whom they had redeemed from the Levites,
To pongah Levinawk mah kamtlai Israel calunawk akranghaih phoisa to Mosi mah cong;
50 For the firstborn of the children of Israel, one thousand three hundred and sixty-five sicles, according to the weight of the sanctuary,
Israel calunawk khaeah cong ih phoisanawk loe, hmuenciim ih shekel tahhaih hoi tah naah, shekel sang hatlai thum, qui taruk, pangato oh.
51 And gave it to Aaron and his sons, according to the word that the Lord had commanded him.
Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah to akranghaih phoisa to Aaron hoi a caanawk khaeah paek.
