Numbers 32
1 The tribes of Reuben and Gad had large numbers of livestock and saw that the land of Jazer and Gilead was a good place to rear them.
VaRubheni navaGadhi, vakanga vane mombe zhinji uye namakwai akawanda kwazvo, vakaona nyika yaJazeri neGireadhi kuti yakanga yakanakira zvipfuwo.
2 So they came to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the Israelite leaders and said,
Saka vakauya kuna Mozisi naEreazari muprista nokuvatungamiri veungano, vakati,
3 “The towns of Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,
“Ataroti, Dhibhoni, Jazeri, Nimira, Heshibhoni, Ereare, Sebhami, Nebho neBheoni,
4 which the Lord conquered in full view of the Israelites, are well-suited for the livestock that we your servants own.”
nyika yakakundwa naJehovha pamberi pavanhu vaIsraeri, yakanakira zvipfuwo, uye varanda venyu vane zvipfuwo.”
5 They continued, “Please respond to our request favorably: give us this land. Don't make us cross the Jordan.”
Vakati, “Kana tawana nyasha pamberi penyu, nyika iyi ngaipiwe kuvaranda venyu ive yedu. Musatiyambutsa Jorodhani.”
6 In reply Moses asked the tribes of Gad and Reuben, “Are you expecting your brothers to go and fight while you just sit here?
Mozisi akati kuvaGadhi nokuvaRubheni, “Ko, vanhu venyika yokwenyu vangaenda kuhondo imi makagara henyu pano?
7 Why discourage the Israelites from crossing into the country that the Lord has given them?
Ko, munoodzerei mwoyo yavaIsraeri kuti vasayambuka vachienda kunyika yavakapiwa naJehovha?
8 This is just what your fathers did when I sent them out from Kadesh-barnea to explore the land.
Izvi ndizvo zvakaitwa namadzibaba enyu pandakavatuma kubva paKadheshi Bharinea kuti vandosora nyika.
9 After your fathers traveled up the valley of Eshcol and explored the land, they discouraged the Israelites, persuading them not to enter the country that the Lord had given them.
Shure kwokukwira kwavo kuMupata weEshikori vakandoona nyika, vakaodza mwoyo yavaIsraeri kuti varege kupinda munyika yavakanga vapiwa naJehovha.
10 As a result, they made the Lord very angry that day, and he swore this oath,
Kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakamutswa nomusi uyo uye akapika mhiko iyi:
11 ‘Not a single one of those I saved from Egypt who is twenty years old or older will ever see the land I promised with an oath to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they were not completely committed to me—
‘Nokuda kwokuti havana kunditevera nomwoyo wose, hakuna mumwe wavo ane makore makumi maviri kana anodarika akabuda munyika yeIjipiti achaona nyika yandakanga ndavimbisa nemhiko kuna Abhurahama, Isaka naJakobho,
12 no one except Caleb, son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, and Joshua, son of Nun, because they were completely committed to me.’
hakuna mumwe wavo kunze kwaKarebhu mwanakomana waJefune muKenizi naJoshua mwanakomana waNuni nokuti vakatevera Jehovha nomwoyo wose.’
13 The Lord was angry with Israel, and made them wander around in the desert for forty years, until the whole generation who had done evil in his sight had died.
Kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakapfuta pamusoro pavaIsraeri akavaita kuti vadzungaire murenje kwamakore makumi mana, kusvikira zera rose ravaya vakaita zvakaipa pamberi pake rapera.
14 Now look at you, you brood of sinners who have come to take your fathers' place to make the Lord even angrier with Israel!
“Hezvino muri pano, imi chibereko chavatadzi, mumire panzvimbo yamadzibaba enyu muchiwedzera kutsamwa kwaJehovha kukuru pamusoro pavaIsraeri.
15 If you give up following him, he will abandon these people in the desert once again, and their deaths will be your fault!”
Kana mukatsauka pakumutevera, achasiyazve vanhu ava vose murenje, uye imi ndimi muchauyisa kuparadzwa kwavo.”
16 Then the tribes of Gad and Reuben came to Moses and told him, “We would plan to build stone walls to keep our livestock safe and towns for our children.
Ipapo vakakwira kwaari vakati, “Tinoda kuvaka matanga ezvipfuwo zvedu kuno namaguta avakadzi vedu navana.
17 But we will still get ourselves ready for battle, and we will be prepared to lead the Israelites until they can safely occupy their land. In the meantime, our children will stay behind, living in the fortified towns to protect them from the local people.
Asi takagadzirira kurwa nokuenda mberi navaIsraeri kusvikira tavasvitsa kunzvimbo yavo. Pari zvino vakadzi vedu navana vedu vachagara mumaguta akakomberedzwa, kuti vadzivirirwe pavagari venyika ino.
18 We won't return to our homes until every Israelite is in possession of their allotted land.
Hatizodzokeri kumisha yedu kusvikira vaIsraeri vose vagamuchira nhaka yavo.
19 However, we won't own any land on the other side of the Jordan because we've received this land to own on this eastern side of the Jordan.”
Hatizogamuchiri nhaka ipi zvayo pamwe chete navo mhiri kweJorodhani, nokuti nhaka yedu tava nayo kumabvazuva kweJorodhani.”
20 Moses responded, “If this is what you will actually do, if you will get yourselves ready for battle under the Lord's direction,
Ipapo Mozisi akati kwavari, “Kana mukaita izvi, kana mukazvishongedza nhumbi dzokurwa pamberi paJehovha kuti mundorwa,
21 and if all your troops cross the Jordan with the Lord until he has driven out his enemies ahead of him,
uye kana imi mose mukaenda makashonga nhumbi dzokurwa mhiri kwaJorodhani pamberi paJehovha kusvikira adzinga vavengi vake pamberi pake,
22 then once the country is conquered with the Lord's help then you may return, and you will have fulfilled your obligations to the Lord and to Israel. You will own this land, granted to you by the Lord.
ipapo kana nyika ichinge yakundwa pamberi paJehovha, mungadzokera henyu uye musununguke pabasa renyu pamberi paJehovha napamberi pavaIsraeri. Uye nyika iyi ichava yenyu pamberi paJehovha.
23 But if you fail to do this, you will clearly be sinning against the Lord, and the consequences of your sin will catch up with you.
“Asi kana mukakoniwa kuita izvi, muchange matadzira Jehovha; uye zvirokwazvo chivi chenyu chichakuwanai.
24 Go ahead and build towns for your children and stone walls for your flocks, but make sure you do what you've promised!”
Vakai maguta avakadzi navana venyu, uye matanga amakwai enyu, asi muite zvamakavimbisa.”
25 The tribes of Gad and Reuben promised Moses, “Sir, we your servants will do just as you have ordered.
VaGadhi navaRubheni vakati kuna Mozisi, “Isu varanda venyu tichaita sezvarayirwa naishe wedu.
26 Our wives and children, our livestock and all our animals, will all remain here in the towns of Gilead.
Vana vedu navakadzi vedu, makwai edu nemombe dzedu zvichasara kuno mumaguta eGireadhi.
27 But we your servants are ready for battle, and all our troops will cross over to fight with the Lord's help, just as you have said, sir.”
Asi varanda venyu, varume vose vakazvigadzirira kundorwa, vachayambuka kundorwa pamberi paJehovha sezvataurwa naishe wedu.”
28 Moses gave the following instructions about them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua, son of Nun, and to the family leaders of the tribes of Israel.
Ipapo Mozisi akarayira pamusoro pavo kuna Ereazari muprista nokuna Joshua mwanakomana waNuni nokuvakuru vemhuri dzamarudzi avaIsraeri.
29 Moses told them, “If the tribes of Gadites and Reuben cross the Jordan with you, with all their troops ready for battle with the Lord's help, and the land is conquered as you advance, then give them the land of Gilead to own.
Akati kwavari, “Kana vaGadhi navaRubheni, murume mumwe nomumwe akazvigadzirira kundorwa, vakayambuka Jorodhani nemi pamberi paJehovha, ipapo kana nyika ikakundwa pamberi pako, uvape nyika yeGireadhi ive yavo.
30 But if they don't get themselves ready for battle and cross over with you, then they must accept their allotted land among you in the country of Canaan.”
Asi kana vakasayambuka nemi vakashonga zvokurwa, vanofanira kupiwa nhaka yavo pamwe chete nemi muKenani.”
31 The tribes of Gad and Reuben responded, “We will do just as the Lord has told us, your servants.
VaGadhi navaRubheni vakapindura vakati, “Varanda venyu vachaita zvarehwa naJehovha.
32 We will cross over and enter the country of Canaan ready for battle with the Lord's help, so that we may have our allotted share of land on this side of the Jordan.”
Tichayambuka mhiri pamberi paJehovha tigopinda muKenani, takashonga nhumbi dzokurwa nadzo, asi nhaka yatichawana ichava kudivi rino reJorodhani.”
33 So Moses gave to the tribes of Gad and Reubenites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan. This land included its towns and their surrounding area.
Ipapo Mozisi akapa kuvaGadhi, navaRubheni nehafu yorudzi rwaManase, mwanakomana waJosefa, umambo hwaSihoni mambo wavaAmori noumambo hwaOgi mambo weBhashani, nyika yose namaguta ayo uye nenyika dzose dzakavapoteredza.
34 The people of Gad rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
VaGadhi vakavaka Dhibhoni, Ataroti, Aroeri,
35 Atroth-shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
Ataroti Shafani, Jazeri, Jogubheha,
36 Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran as fortified towns, and they built stone walls for their flocks.
Bheti Nimura neBheti Harani samaguta akakomberedzwa, uye vakavaka matanga amakwai avo.
37 The people of Reuben rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
Uye vaRubheni vakavakazve Heshibhoni, Ereare Kiriatihaimi,
38 as well as Nebo and Baal-meon (changing their names), and Sibmah. In fact they renamed those towns they rebuilt.
pamwe chete neNebho neBhaari Meoni (mazita aya akashandurwa) neSibhima. Vakapa mazita kumaguta avakavaka.
39 The descendants of Machir, son of Manasseh, attacked Gilead and captured it. They drove out the Amorites who were living there.
Zvizvarwa zvaMakiri mwanakomana waManase zvakaenda kuGireadhi, zvikaritapa zvikadzinga vaAmori vakanga varimo.
40 So Moses gave Gilead to the family of Machir, son of Manasseh, and they settled there.
Saka Mozisi akapa Gireadhi kuvaMakiri, zvizvarwa zvaManase, ivo vakagara ikoko.
41 Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, attacked their villages and captured them. He named them the Villages of Jair.
Jairi, chizvarwa chaManase, akakunda misha yaro akaitumidza kuti Havhoti Jairi.
42 Nobah attacked Kenath and captured it, along with its villages. He named it Nobah after himself.
Uye Nobha akakunda Kenati nenzvimbo dzakaripoteredza akaritumidza kuti Nobha zita rake.
