< Numbers 3 >
1 These also were the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day that the Lord spake with Moses in mount Sinai.
Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro wa njiaro cia Harũni na Musa hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jehova aaririe na Musa Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Sinai.
2 So these are the names of the sonnes of Aaron, Nadab the first borne, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Harũni maarĩ Nadabu ũrĩa warĩ irigithathi, na Abihu, na Eleazaru, na Ithamaru.
3 These are the names of the sonnes of Aaron the anoynted Priests, whom Moses did consecrate to minister in the Priests office.
Macio nĩmo marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Harũni, nao maarĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai aitĩrĩrie maguta, arĩa maamũrĩtwo matungatage marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
4 And Nadab and Abihu died before the Lord, when they offred strange fire before the Lord in the wildernesse of Sinai, and had no children: but Eleazar and Ithamar serued in ye Priestes office in the sight of Aaron their father.
Na rĩrĩ, Nadabu na Abihu nĩmakuire marĩ mbere ya Jehova rĩrĩa maarutaga igongona na mwaki ũtarĩ mwĩtĩkĩrie mbere yake Werũ-inĩ wa Sinai. Matiarĩ na ciana cia aanake; nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Eleazaru na Ithamaru nĩo maatungataga marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe ithe wao Harũni aarĩ muoyo.
5 Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
6 Bring the tribe of Leui, and set the before Aaron the Priest that they may serue him,
“Rehe andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Lawi ũmaneane kũrĩ Harũni mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩguo mamũteithagie.
7 And take the charge with him, euen the charge of the whole Congregation before the Tabernacle of the Congregation to doe the seruice of the Tabernacle.
Marĩĩrutaga wĩra wa kũmũtungatĩra, na matungatagĩre kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩothe hau Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo na ũndũ wa kũruta wĩra wa hema ĩyo.
8 They shall also keepe all the instruments of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and haue the charge of the children of Israel to doe the seruice of the Tabernacle.
Nao marĩmenyagĩrĩra indo ciothe cia Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, mahingagie maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire nĩ gwĩkwo nĩ andũ a Isiraeli na ũndũ wa kũruta wĩra wa hema ĩyo.
9 And thou shalt giue the Leuites vnto Aaron and to his sonnes: for they are giuen him freely from among the children of Israel.
Neana Alawii acio kũrĩ Harũni na ariũ ake; nĩo andũ a Isiraeli arĩa mekũneanwo kũrĩ we biũ.
10 And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sonnes to execute their Priestes office: and the stranger that commeth neere, shalbe slayne.
Amũra Harũni na ariũ ake matungatage marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai; mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe ũrĩa ũrĩkuhagĩrĩria harĩa haamũre no nginya ooragwo.”
11 Also the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
12 Beholde, I haue euen taken the Leuites from among the childre of Israel: for al the first borne that openeth the matrice among the children of Israel, and the Leuites shalbe mine,
“Niĩ nĩ niĩ thuurĩte Alawii kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli ithenya rĩa marigithathi ma arũme arĩa marigithathĩtwo nĩ andũ-a-nja othe a Isiraeli. Alawii nĩ akwa,
13 Because all the first borne are mine: for the same day, that I smote all the first borne in the land of Egypt, I sanctified vnto me all the first borne in Israel, both man and beast: mine they shalbe: I am the Lord.
nĩgũkorwo marigithathi mothe nĩ makwa. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndooragire marigithathi mothe ma Misiri, noguo ndeyamũrĩire marigithathi mothe ma Isiraeli, marĩ ma mũndũ kana ma nyamũ. Macio nĩ makwa kĩũmbe. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
14 Moreouer, the Lord spake vnto Moses in the wildernesse of Sinai, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa kũu Werũ-inĩ wa Sinai atĩrĩ,
15 Nomber the children of Leui after the houses of their fathers, in their families: euery male from a moneth olde and aboue shalt thou nomber.
“Tara Alawii kũringana na nyũmba ciao na mbarĩ ciao. Tara arũme othe arĩa makinyĩtie mweri ũmwe na makĩria.”
16 Then Moses nombred them according to the word of the Lord, as he was commanded.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Musa akĩmatara o ta ũrĩa aathĩtwo nĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova.
17 And these are the sonnes of Leui by their names, Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.

40 And the Lord said vnto Moses, Nomber all the first borne that are Males among the children of Israel, from a moneth old and aboue, and take the nomber of their names.
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Tara marigithathi ma arũme othe ma andũ a Isiraeli arĩa makinyĩtie mweri ũmwe na makĩria, na wandĩke marĩĩtwa mao.
41 And thou shalt take ye Leuites to me for all the first borne of the children of Israel (I am the Lord) and the cattell of the Leuites for all the first borne of the cattell of the children of Israel.
Nyamũrĩra Alawii handũ ha marigithathi mothe ma andũ a Isiraeli; o naguo ũhiũ wa Alawii ũwaamũre handũ ha marigithathi mothe ma mahiũ ma andũ a Isiraeli. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
42 And Moses nombred, as the Lord commanded him, all the first borne of the children of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa agĩtara marigithathi mothe ma andũ a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
43 And all the first borne males rehearsed by name (from a moneth olde and aboue) according to their nomber were two and twentie thousand, two hundreth seuentie and three.
Marigithathi mothe ma arũme arĩa maakinyĩtie mweri ũmwe na makĩria, maandĩkwo na marĩĩtwa mao, maarĩ andũ 22,273.
44 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
45 Take the Leuites for all the first borne of the children of Israel, and the cattell of the Leuites for their cattel, and the Leuites shalbe mine, (I am the Lord)
“Amũra Alawii handũ ha marigithathi mothe ma andũ a Isiraeli, naguo ũhiũ wa Alawii ũwaamũre handũ ha mahiũ mao. Alawii megũtuĩka akwa. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
46 And for the redeeming of the two hundreth seuentie and three, (which are moe then the Leuites) of the first borne of the children of of Israel,
Gũkũũra marigithathi macio 273 ma andũ a Isiraeli, acio makĩrĩte mũigana wa Alawii-rĩ,
47 Thou shalt also take fiue shekels for euery person: after the weight of the Sanctuarie shalt thou take it: ye shekel conteineth twenty gerahs.
oya cekeri ithano irũgamĩrĩre o mũndũ, kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, ĩrĩa ũritũ wayo ũrĩ gera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ.
48 And thou shalt giue the money, wherwith the odde nomber of them is redeemed, vnto Aaron and to his sonnes.
Mbeeca icio cia gũkũũra andũ a Isiraeli acio makĩrĩte-rĩ, cinengere Harũni na ariũ ake.”
49 Thus Moses tooke the redemption of the that were redeemed, being more then the Leuites:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩũngania mbeeca cia gũkũũra andũ acio maakĩrĩte mũigana wa andũ arĩa maakũũrĩtwo nĩ Alawii.
50 Of the first borne of the children of Israel tooke he the mony: eue a thousand three hundreth three score and fiue shekels after the shekel of the Sanctuarie.
Kuuma kũrĩ marigithathi ma andũ a Isiraeli, akĩũngania betha ya ũritũ wa cekeri 1,365 kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre.
51 And Moses gaue the money of them that were redeemed, vnto Aaron and to his sonnes according to the word of the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Musa akĩnengera Harũni na ariũ ake mbeeca icio ciakũũrĩte andũ, o ta ũrĩa aathĩtwo nĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova.
