< Numbers 1 >

1 The Lord spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting while they were in the Sinai desert. This was on the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had left Egypt. He told him,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’ayogera ne Musa mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, mu Ddungu lya Sinaayi ku lunaku olw’olubereberye olw’omu mwezi ogwokubiri ogw’omwaka ogwokubiri kasookedde abaana ba Isirayiri bava mu nsi y’e Misiri. N’amugamba nti:
2 “Census all the Israelites according to their tribe and family. Count every man and keep a record of each individual's name.
“Bala ekibiina kyonna eky’abaana ba Isirayiri ng’obategeka mu bika byabwe, ne mu mpya zaabwe, ng’owandiika erinnya lya buli musajja kinnoomu ku lukalala.
3 Those aged twenty or older who can do military service are to be registered by you and Aaron in their Israelite army divisions.
Ggwe ne Alooni mujja kutegeka abasajja bonna ab’omu Isirayiri abawezezza emyaka amakumi abiri egy’obukulu n’okusingawo, abatuuse okuyingira mu magye, mubabalire mu bibinja byabwe.
4 A representative from each tribe, the head of a family, must be there with you.
Munaayambibwako omusajja omu omu okuva mu buli kika, nga ye mukulu w’oluggya lwa bajjajjaabe.
5 These are the names of the men who will work with you: From the tribe of Reuben, Elizur, son of Shedeur;

16 These were the men chosen from the Israelite community. They were the leaders of their fathers' tribes; the heads of the families of Israel.
Abo be basajja abaalondebwa okuva mu kibiina, nga be bakulembeze ab’ebika bya bajjajjaabwe. Abo nga be bakulu b’ebika bya Isirayiri.
17 Moses and Aaron summoned these men who had been selected by name.

18 They had all the Israelites gather together on the first day of the second month, and recorded the people's genealogy according to their tribe and family, and counted up the names of all those aged twenty or older,

Abazzukulu ab’omu mpya ez’omu bika ebirala bwe baali babalibwa, bo ab’omu kika kya Leevi tebaabalibwa.
48 This was because the Lord had told Moses,
Kubanga Mukama Katonda yali agambye Musa nti,
49 “Don't register the tribe of Levi; don't count them in the census with the other Israelites.
“Ab’omu kika kya Leevi tababalanga wadde okubagatta awamu n’emiwendo gy’abaana ba Isirayiri abalala.”
50 Put the Levites in charge of the Tabernacle and of the Testimony, as well as all its furniture and everything it contains. They are the ones responsible for carrying the Tabernacle and all its items. They are to care for it, and to make their camp around it.
Era n’amugamba nti, “Naye Abaleevi obawanga omulimu ogw’okulabirira Eweema ey’Endagaano n’ebintu byamu byonna awamu ne byonna ebigigenderako. Banaasitulanga Eweema n’ebyamu byonna, banaagirabiriranga era banaasiisiranga okugyetooloola.
51 When it's time to move the Tabernacle, the Levites shall take it down, and when it's time to make camp, the Levites shall put it up. Any outsider who goes near it must be put to death.
Eweema bw’eneebanga etwalibwa mu kifo ekirala, Abaleevi be banaagisimbulanga, era bwe kineetaagisanga okugissa mu kifo awalala, Abaleevi be banaagisimbangawo. Omuntu omulala yenna bw’anaagisembereranga anaafanga.
52 The Israelites are to make camp according to their tribal divisions, each person in their own camp under their own flag.
Abaana ba Isirayiri banaasiisiranga mu bibinja, nga buli musajja ali mu lusiisira lwe n’ebendera ye ku bubwe.
53 But the Levites are to set up their camp around the Tabernacle of the Testimony to stop anyone making me angry with the Israelites. The Levites are responsible for looking after the Tabernacle of the Testimony.”
Naye Abaleevi bo banaasimbanga eweema zaabwe okwebungulula Eweema ey’Endagaano, abaana ba Isirayiri baleme kutuukibwako busungu bwa Mukama. Abaleevi be banaabanga n’obuvunaanyizibwa obw’okulabirira Eweema ey’Endagaano.”
54 The Israelites did everything that the Lord ordered Moses that they should do.
Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakola ebyo byonna nga Mukama Katonda bwe yalagira Musa.
