Numbers 32
1 Nowe the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad had an exceeding great multitude of cattell: and they sawe the lande of Iazer, and the lande of Gilead, that it was an apt place for cattel.
Mgbe ndị Izrel rutere ala Jeza na Gilead, ndị ebo Ruben na Gad ndị nwere ọtụtụ igwe ehi, na igwe ewu na atụrụ chọpụtara na ala ahụ dị mma nke ukwuu maka ịzụ anụ ụlọ.
2 Then the children of Gad, and the childre of Reuben came, and spake vnto Moses and to Eleazar the Priest, and vnto the princes of the Congregation, saying,
Ya mere, ha bịakwutere Mosis na Elieza onye nchụaja, na ndị ndu nzukọ Izrel, sị ha,
3 The land of Ataroth, and Dibon, and Iazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
“Ala ndị a: Atarọt, Dibọn, Jeza, Nimra, Heshbọn, Eleale, Sebam, Nebo, na Beon,
4 Which countrey the Lord smote before the Congregation of Israel, is a lande meete for cattell, and thy seruants haue cattell:
bụ ala nke Onyenwe anyị meriri nʼagha nʼihu nzukọ Izrel, dị mma maka ịzụ anụ ụlọ. Anyị onwe anyị kwa nwere igwe ewu na atụrụ.
5 Wherefore, said they, if we haue foud grace in thy sight, let this lande be giuen vnto thy seruants for a possession, and bring vs not ouer Iorde.
Ọ bụrụ na anyị achọtala amara nʼihu unu, biko, kwerenụ ka akụkụ ala a bụrụ ihe nketa nke anyị bụ ohu unu. Unu emekwala ka anyị soro ndị Izrel gafee nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan.”
6 And Moses said vnto the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren goe to warre, and ye tary heere?
Mosis jụrụ ndị Gad na Ruben ajụjụ sị, “Unu na-ekwu na unu chọrọ ịnọ nʼebe a mgbe ụmụnna unu ndị ikom niile ga-agafe osimiri Jọdan ịlụ agha niile ahụ dị na-eche ha?
7 Wherefore now discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel, to goe ouer into the lande, which the Lord hath giuen them?
Ọ bụ nʼihi gịnị ka unu ji eme ka ndị Izrel daa mba ghara ịgafe banye nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyerela ha?
8 Thus did your fathers when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the lande.
Otu a ka nna unu ha mere mgbe m si Kadesh Banea zipụ ha inyocha ala ahụ.
9 For when they went vp euen vnto the riuer of Eshcol, and sawe the land: they discouraged the heart of the childre of Israel, that they woulde not goe into the lande, which the Lord had giuen them.
Mgbe ha letasịrị ala ahụ si na Ndagwurugwu Eshkọl lọghachi, ha mere ka obi ndị Izrel niile daa mba ịbanye nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere ha.
10 And the Lordes wrath was kindled the same day, and he did sweare, saying,
Nʼihi nke a Onyenwe anyị were iwe dị ọkụ megide ha nʼụbọchị ahụ. Ọ ṅụrụ iyi kwuo sị,
11 None of the men that came out of Egypt from twentie yeere olde and aboue, shall see the land for the which I sware vnto Abraham, to Izhak, and to Iaakob, because they haue not wholly followed me:
‘Nʼihi na unu jụrụ iji obi unu niile gbasoo m, o nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime ndị ahụ o si nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta, ndị gbara iri afọ abụọ rigoo, ga-ahụ ala ahụ m kwere Ebraham na Aịzik na Jekọb nkwa inye ha.’
12 Except Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenesite, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun: for they haue constantly followed the Lord.
Naanị ndị ọṅụṅụ iyi a na-emegideghị bụ Kaleb, nwa Jefune onye Keniz, na Joshua nwa Nun, nʼihi na ha jiri obi ha niile sogide Onyenwe anyị.
13 And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and made them wander in the wildernesse fourty yeeres, vntill all the generation that had done euill in the sight of the Lord were consumed.
Iwe Onyenwe anyị dịịrị ọkụ megide Izrel, o mere ka ha wagharịa nʼọzara iri afọ anọ, tutu ruo mgbe ọgbọ ahụ niile nke mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya ya nwụchara.
14 And behold, ye are risen vp in your fathers steade as an encrease of sinfull men, still to augment the fierce wrath of the Lord, toward Israel.
“Ma lee unu ugbu a, agbụrụ ndị mmehie, ọ bụkwa otu ihe ahụ ka unu na-eme! Unu na-achọ ime ka iwe dị ukwuu wee Onyenwe anyị megide ndị Izrel.
15 For if ye turne away from following him, he will yet againe leaue the people in the wildernesse, and ye shall destroy all this folke.
Ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ iso Onyenwe anyị ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị ga-emekwa ka ndị Izrel nọgide nʼọzara. Mbibi na ịla nʼiyi nke ga-abịakwasị ha ga-abụkwa nke unu ji aka unu kpatara ha.”
16 And they went neere to him, and said, We will builde sheepe foldes here for our sheepe, and for our cattell, and cities for our children.
Ma ha zara sị ya, “Ọ gaghị adị otu a! Anyị ga-ewuru anụ ụlọ anyị ụlọ, tinye igwe ewu na atụrụ anyị nʼime ha. Anyị ga-ewukwara ndị nwunye anyị na ụmụntakịrị anyị obodo ebe ha ga-anọ.
17 But we our selues will be readie armed to go before the children of Israel, vntill we haue brought them vnto their place: but our childre shall dwell in the defenced cities, because of the inhabitants of the lande.
Ma anyị onwe anyị ga-eburu ngwa agha anyị, buru ndị Izrel niile ọzọ ụzọ gaa nʼihu ịlụ ọgụ, tutu anyị edubata ha nʼala nke ha ga-eketa. Ma ndị nwunye anyị na ụmụntakịrị anyị ga-anọ nʼobodo e wusiri ike, ikpuchite ezinaụlọ anyị niile site nʼaka ndị iro bi anyị gburugburu.
18 We will not returne vnto our houses, vntil the children of Israel haue inherited, euery man his inheritance.
Anyị agaghị alọta nʼụlọ anyị tutu onye Izrel ọbụla enweta ihe nketa nke ya.
19 Neither wil we inherite with them beyond Iorden and on that side, because our inheritance is fallen to vs on this side Iorden Eastwarde.
Anyị achọghị ihe nketa, nʼofe Jọdan nke ọzọ, nʼihi na anyị ewerela oke nke anyị nʼebe a, nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ Jọdan.”
20 And Moses saide vnto them, If ye will doe this thing, and goe armed before the Lord to warre:
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis zara sị ha, “Ọ dị mma, ọ bụrụ na unu ga-eme dịka unu kwuru, jikere onwe unu, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ibu agha.
21 And will goe euery one of you in harnesse ouer Iorden before the Lord, vntill he hath cast out his enemies from his sight:
Ọ bụrụ na ndị agha unu ga-eso gafee nʼofe ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan, soro ndị ọzọ buo agha tutu ruo mgbe Onyenwe anyị chụpụchara ndị iro ya niile,
22 And vntill the land be subdued before the Lord, then ye shall returne and be innocent toward the Lord, and toward Israel: and this land shalbe your possession before the Lord.
mgbe ahụ, e merichaa mba ndị ahụ niile nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, unu nwere ike ịlọghachi nʼebe a, bụrụ ndị ikpe na-amaghị nʼebe Onyenwe anyị na ndị Izrel nọ. Ala a dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, ga-abụ ihe nketa unu nwere site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị.
23 But if ye will not doe so, beholde, ye haue sinned against the Lord, and be sure, that your sinne will finde you out.
“Ọ bụrụkwanụ na unu ajụ ime dịka unu kwuru, mgbe ahụ, ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị ka unu na-emehie megide. Matakwanụ na unu ga-emesịa nata ụgwọ ọrụ mmehie unu.
24 Builde you then cities for your children and folds for your sheepe, and do that ye haue spoke.
Wuonụ obodo ebe ndị inyom na ụmụ unu ga-ebi, wuokwanụ ụlọ anụ maka igwe ewu na atụrụ unu, ma mezuokwanụ ihe niile unu kweere na nkwa.”
25 Then the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake vnto Moses, saying, Thy seruats will doe as my lorde commandeth:
Ndị ebo Gad na Ruben sịrị Mosis, “Anyị bụ ndị ohu gị ga-eme dịka onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu.
26 Our childre, our wiues, our sheepe, and al our cattell shall remaine there in the cities of Gilead,
Ụmụ anyị niile, na ndị inyom anyị niile, na igwe ewu na atụrụ anyị, na ehi anyị niile, ga-anọ nʼebe a, nʼobodo ndị a anyị wuru nʼala Gilead.
27 But thy seruants will goe euery one armed to warre before the Lord for to fight, as my lorde saith.
Ma anyị, ndị ohu gị, ndị niile tozuru ije agha, ga-agafe osimiri Jọdan ibu agha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, dịka onyenwe anyị si kwuo.”
28 So concerning them, Moses commanded Eleazar the Priest, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun, and the chiefe fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis nyere Elieza, bụ onye nchụaja, na Joshua nwa Nun, na ndịisi ezinaụlọ nke ebo Izrel niile iwu banyere ha,
29 And Moses said vnto them, If the children of Gad, and the children of Reuben, will go with you ouer Iorden, all armed to fight before the Lord, then when the land is subdued before you, ye shall giue the the lad of Gilead for a possessio:
Ọ sịrị ha, “Ọ bụrụ na ndị ebo Gad na Ruben, onye ọbụla nke jikere ịga agha, ga-eso unu gafee Jọdan nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, mgbe ahụ, oge unu lụgburu ndị ala ahụ niile, unu aghaghị inye ha ala Gilead dịka ihe nketa ha.
30 But if they will not goe ouer with you armed, then they shall haue their possessions amog you in the land of Canaan.
Ma ọ bụrụ na ha ajụ iso unu, ha ga-eso ndị ọzọ keta oke nʼala Kenan.”
31 And the children of Gad, and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the Lord hath said vnto thy seruants, so will we doe.
Ndị ebo Gad na Ruben zara sị, “Ihe ọbụla Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu ka anyị ga-eme.
32 We will goe armed before the Lord into the lande of Canaan: that the possession of our inheritance may be to vs on this side Iorden.
Anyị ga-ejikere soro Onyenwe anyị jee agha nʼala Kenan. Ma ihe nketa anyị ga-adị nʼebe a, nʼakụkụ Jọdan.”
33 So Moses gaue vnto them, euen to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to halfe the tribe of Manasseh the sonne of Ioseph, the kingdome of Sihon King of the Amorites, and the kingdome of Og King of Bashan, the lande with the cities thereof and coastes, euen the cities of the countrey round about.
Mosis nyere ndị ebo Gad, na Ruben, na ọkara Manase nwa Josef, alaeze niile Saịhọn eze Amọrị nakwa alaeze niile nke Ọg, eze ndị Bashan na-achị. O nyere ha ala ahụ niile, na obodo niile dị nʼala ahụ gburugburu.
34 Then the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
Ndị ebo Gad wugharịrị ma wusiekwa obodo ndị a, Dibọn, Atarọt, Aroea
35 And Atroth, Shophan, and Iazer, and Iogbehah,
Atrọt-Shofan, Jeza, Jogbeha,
36 And Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, defenced cities: also sheepe foldes.
Bet-Nimra na Bet-Haran bụ obodo e wusiri ike, wukwaara igwe ewu na atụrụ ha ụlọ anụ nʼime ya.
37 And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kiriathaim,
Ma ndị ebo Ruben wugharịrị obodo ndị a: obodo Heshbọn, Eleale, Kiriatem,
38 And Nebo, and Baal-meon, and turned their names, and Shibmah: and gaue other names vnto the cities which they built.
Nebo na Baal-Meon (ma a gbanwere aha ha) na Sibma. Ha gbanwere aha obodo niile ndị ahụ ha wugharịrị, gụọ ha aha ọhụrụ.
39 And the children of Machir the sonne of Manasseh went to Gilead, and tooke it, and put out the Amorites that dwelt therein.
Ndị agbụrụ Makia, nwa Manase gara nʼobodo Gilead lụgbuo ya, chụpụ ndị Amọrait bi nʼebe ahụ.
40 Then Moses gaue Gilead vnto Machir the sonne of Manasseh, and he dwelt therein.
Ya mere, Mosis were obodo Gilead nye Makia, ụmụ Manase ka ha biri nʼebe ahụ.
41 And Iair the sonne of Manasseh went and tooke the small townes thereof, and called them Hauoth Iair.
Jia, onye sikwa nʼebo Manase gara buso ọtụtụ obodo nta ndị ọzọ agha, lụgbuo ha. Ọ gbanwere aha obodo nta ndị a, gụọ ha Havọt Jaịa.
42 Also Nobah went and tooke Kenath, with the villages thereof and called it Nobah, after his owne name.
Nʼoge a kwa, otu nwoke a na-akpọ Nọba duuru ndị agha gaa nʼobodo Kenat, na nʼobodo nta ndị ọzọ gbara ya gburugburu, lụgbuo ha, bichie nʼime ha. Ọ gbanwere aha obodo ndị ahụ niile bido ịkpọ ha Nọba, nke bụ aha ya onwe ya.
