1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, and to Aaron, saying,

Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị,

2 Take the summe of the sonnes of Kohath from among the sonnes of Leui, after their families, and houses of their fathers,

“Gụọ ọnụ chọpụta, ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ Kohat dị nʼebo Livayị dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

3 From thirtie yeere olde and aboue, euen vntill fiftie yeere olde, all that enter into the assemblie to do the worke in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

Gụọ ndị ikom niile gbarala iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise, ndị tozuru ije ozi nʼụlọ nzute.

4 This shall be the office of the sonnes of Kohath in the Tabernacle of the Congregation about the Holiest of all.

“Nke a bụ ọrụ dịrị ndị Kohat nʼụlọ nzute, ilekọta ihe ndị ahụ kachasị ịdị nsọ.

5 When the hoste remoueth, then Aaron and his sonnes shall come and take downe the couering vaile, and shall couer the Arke of the Testimonie therewith.

Mgbe ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ahụ ga-ebili ije ha, Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ga-eburu ụzọ banye nʼụlọ nzute ahụ wetuo akwa mgbochi ahụ, jiri ya kpuchie igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ.

6 And they shall put thereon a couering of badgers skinnes, and shall spread vpon it a cloth altogether of blewe silke, and put to the barres thereof:

Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-agbakwasị akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri nʼelu akwa mgbochi ahụ, sakwasịkwa akwa na-acha anụnụ anụnụ nʼelu ya, tinyekwa mkpọrọ osisi niile nʼoghere ha kwesiri ịdị.

7 And vpon ye table of shew bread they shall spread a cloth of blewe silke, and put thereon the dishes, and the incense cups, and goblets, and couerings to couer it with, and the bread shall be thereon continually:

“Nʼelu tebul ahụ na-adị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ha ga-agbasa akwa anụnụ anụnụ tụkwasịkwa efere niile, ngaji niile, ọkwa niile na iko aja ihe ọṅụṅụ. Achịcha ahụ na-adịgide nʼelu ya ga-adịkwa ebe ọ dị.

8 And they shall spread vpon them a couering of skarlet, and couer the same with a couering of badgers skinnes, and put to the barres thereof.

Ha ga-agbasakwa akwa uhie nʼelu ya, jiri akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri gbokwasịkwa nʼelu akwa uhie ahụ. Mgbe ahụ, ha ga-etinyekwa mkpọrọ osisi e ji ebu tebul nʼime oghere o kwesiri ịdị.

9 Then they shall take a cloth of blewe silke, and couer the candlesticke of light with his lampes and his snuffers, and his snuffedishes, and al the oyle vessels thereof, which they occupie about it.

“Ọzọ, ha ga-eji akwa anụnụ anụnụ sachie ihe ịdọba oriọna ahụ nke na-enye ìhè, ya na oriọna ya niile, mkpa ya niile na ihe ịkpakepụ ọkụ ya niile na ite mmanụ ya niile, e ji awụnye ya mmanụ.

10 So they shall put it, and all the instruments thereof in a couering of badgers skinnes, and put it vpon the barres.

Emesịa, ha ga-eji akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri sachie ya na ngwongwo ya niile, tụkwasị ya nʼelu ihe e ji ebu ya.

11 Also vpon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blewe silke, and couer it with a couering of badgers skinnes, and put to the barres thereof.

“Ha ga-ejikwa akwa anụnụ anụnụ tụsaa nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ e jiri ọlaedo mee, werekwa akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri sachie ya, tinyekwa mkpọrọ osisi e ji ebu ya nʼoghere dị nʼakụkụ ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.

12 And they shall take all the instruments of the ministerie wherewith they minister in the Sanctuarie, and put them in a cloth of blew silke, and couer the with a couering of badgers skinnes, and put them on the barres.

“Ihe ndị ọzọ niile e ji eje ozi nʼebe nsọ ahụ ka ha ga-eji akwa anụnụ anụnụ kekọtaa, jirikwa akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri sachie ha, tụkwasị ha nʼelu ihe e ji ebu ha.

13 Also they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth vpon it,

“A ga-ekpopụ ntụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja bronz ahụ, jiri akwa na-acha ngwakọta anụnụ na uhie, sachie ebe ịchụ aja bronz ahụ.

14 And shall put vpon it all the instruments thereof, which they occupie about it: the censers, the fleshhookes and the besomes, and the basens, euen al the instruments of the altar and they shall spread vpon it a couering of badgers skinnes, and put to the barres of it.

Emesịa ha ga-atụkwasị ihe niile e ji eje ozi nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ nʼelu akwa ahụ, ihe dịka ite ịgụ ọkụ, na ndụdụ, na ihe ikpofu ntụ, na efere ịkwọsa mmiri niile. Akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri ka a ga-eji sachie ha niile. Ma nʼikpeazụ, mkpọrọ osisi e ji ebu ya ka a ga-etinye nʼebe ha kwesiri ịdị.

15 And when Aaron and his sonnes haue made an ende of couering the Sanctuarie, and al the instruments of the Sanctuarie, at the remouing of the host, afterward the sonnes of Kohath shall come to beare it, but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they dye. This is the charge of the sonnes of Kohath in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

“Mgbe Erọn na ụmụ ya kpuchisịrị ụlọnsọ ahụ na ngwongwo niile nke ebe nsọ ahụ, dịka ndị Izrel niile na-ejikere ibili ije, mgbe ahụ ka ndị Kohat ga-abata buru ihe ndị a. Ma ha agaghị emetụ ihe nsọ ndị a aka ka ha ghara ịnwụ. Ọrụ ibu ihe ndị a niile dị nʼime ụlọ nzute dịrị Ndị Kohat.

16 And to the office of Eleazar the sonne of Aaron the Priest pertaineth the oyle for the light, and the sweete incense and the dayly meat offring, and the anointing oyle, with the ouersight of all the Tabernacle, and of all that therein is, both in the Sanctuarie and in all the instruments thereof.

“Elieza nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja, ka ọrụ ndị a dị nʼaka: mmanụ e ji amụ ọkụ, na ihe nsure ọkụ e ji ụda dị iche iche na-esi isi ụtọ mee, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka a na-enye ụbọchị niile, na mmanụ nsọ ahụ. Nʼaka ya ka ọrụ metụtara nlekọta ụlọ nzute ahụ niile, ihe niile dị nʼime ya na ngwongwo nsọ ya dị iche iche dị.”

17 And the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron, saying,

Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn sị,

18 Ye shall not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Leuites:

“Unu ekwekwala ka agbụrụ Kohat bụrụ ndị e bipụrụ site nʼebo Livayị.

19 But thus do vnto them, that they may liue and not die, when they come neere to the most holy things: let Aaron and his sonnes come and appoynt them, euery one to his office, and to his charge.

Otu a ka unu ga-esi meso ha mmeso ime ka ha dịrị ndụ, ghara ịnwụ, mgbe ha bịara nso ihe ndị ahụ dịkarịsịrị nsọ, Erọn na ụmụ ya ga-esoro ha banye gosi onye ọ bụla nʼime ha ihe ha ga-ebu.

20 But let them not goe in, to see when the Sanctuarie is folden vp, lest they die.

Ma ndị Kohat ekwesighị ịbanye ilekwasị ihe nsọ ndị ahụ anya, ka ha ghara ịnwụ.”

21 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Mgbe ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,

22 Take also ye summe of the sonnes of Gershon, euery one by the houses of their fathers throughout their families:

“Gụọ ọnụ chọpụta ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ Geshọn, dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

23 From thirtie yere old and aboue, vntil fiftie yere old shalt thou nomber them, al that enter into the assemblie for to do seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

Mata ọnụọgụgụ ndị ikom ole ha dị, ndị kwesiri ịrụ ọrụ nʼụlọ nzute, ndị gbara iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise.

24 This shall be the seruice of the families of the Gershonites, to serue and to beare.

“Ihe ga-abụ ọrụ ndị ikwu Geshọn ga-abụ ije ozi na ibu ibu.

25 They shall beare the curtaines of the Tabernacle, and the Tabernacle of the Congregation, his couering, and the couering of badgers skinnes, that is on hie vpon it, and the vayle of the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation:

Ha ga-ebu akwa mgbochi ebe obibi ahụ na nke ụlọ nzute ahụ, tinyere akwa e ji sachie ya na akpụkpọ anụ ehi mmiri e ji mee elu ụlọ ya na akwa mgbochi dị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.

26 The curtaines also of the court, and the vaile of the entring in of the gate of the court, which is neere the Tabernacle and neere the altar round about, with their cordes, and all the instruments for their seruice, and all that is made for them: so shall they serue.

Ha ga-ebukwa akwa mgbochi niile e ji gechie ogige ahụ, akwa e ji gechie ọnụ ụzọ ama ogige gbara ebe ịchụ aja na ụlọ nzute ahụ gburugburu, ụdọ ya niile na ngwongwo niile e ji eje ozi.

27 At the commandement of Aaron and his sonnes shall all the seruice of the sonnes of ye Gershonites bee done, in all their charges and in all their seruice, and ye shall appoynt them to keepe all their charges.

Ọrụ ha niile, maọbụ ibu ihe ma ọ bụkwanụ ịrụ ọrụ ọzọ, ga-abụ site na ntụziaka Erọn na ụmụ ya. Ị ga-ekenye ha ọrụ dịrị ha nʼihe niile bụ ihe ha ga-ebu.

28 This is the seruice of the families of the sonnes of the Gershonites in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and their watch shall be vnder the hande of Ithamar the sonne of Aaron the Priest.

Nke a bụ ọrụ dịịrị ikwu Geshọn nʼụlọ nzute. Ha ga-anọ nʼokpuru Itama, nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja, onye bụ onyeisi ha.

29 Thou shalt nomber the sonnes of Merari by their families, and by the houses of their fathers:

“Gụọ, chọpụta ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ Merari dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

30 From thirty yere olde and aboue, euen vnto fiftie yere olde shalt thou nomber the, all that enter into the assemblie, to doe the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

Chọpụta ọnụọgụgụ ndị ikom ole ha dị, ndị gbara iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise, ndị toruru ịrụ ọrụ nʼụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị.

31 And this is their office and charge according to all their seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation: the boardes of the Tabernacle with the barres thereof, and his pillars, and his sockets,

Ije ozi ha dịka o si metụta ọrụ ụlọ nzute bụ ibu mbudo ụlọ nzute ahụ niile, osisi ntụbichi ya niile, ogidi osisi na ụkwụ ya niile;

32 And the pillars rounde about the court, with their sockets and their pinnes, and their cords, with all their instruments, euen for all their seruice: and by name ye shall recken the instruments of their office and charge.

tinyere ogidi osisi niile dị ogige ahụ gburugburu na ụkwụ ha niile, ǹtu niile, ụdọ ha niile na ngwongwo ndị ọzọ e ji arụ ọrụ metụtara ihe ndị a ha ga-ebu. Kenye nwoke ọbụla ọrụ nke ya. Kpọ onye ahụ aha nye ya ọrụ nke ya.

33 This is the seruice of the families of the sonnes of Merari, according to all their seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation vnder the hand of Ithamar the sonne of Aaron the Priest.

Nke a bụ ọrụ dịịrị ndị agbụrụ Merari mgbe ha na-aga ozi ha nʼụlọ nzute. Ha ga-anọ nʼokpuru Itama, nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja, onye bụ onyeisi ha.”

34 Then Moses and Aaron and the princes of the Congregation nombred the sonnes of the Kohathites, by their families and by the houses of their fathers,

Ya mere, Mosis na Erọn na ndị ndu nzukọ ụmụ Izrel gụrụ ma chọpụta ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ Kohat, dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

35 From thirtie yeere olde and aboue, euen vnto fiftie yere olde, all that enter into the assemblie for the seruice of the Tabernacle of ye Congregation.

Ndị ikom niile gbara iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise, ndị toruru ije ozi nʼụlọ nzute ahụ

36 So the nombers of the throughout their families were two thousande, seuen hundreth and fiftie.

dịka ikwu ha si dị bụ puku abụọ na narị asaa na iri ise.

37 These are the nombers of the families of the Kohathites, al that serue in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, which Moses and Aaron did nomber according to the commandement of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

Ndị a niile bụ ndị si nʼikwu Kohat ndị na-eje ozi nʼụlọ nzute. Mosis na Erọn gụrụ ha ọnụ dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis si dị.

38 Also the nombers of the sonnes of Gershon throughout their families and houses of their fathers,

A gụrụ ụmụ Geshọn ọnụ dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

39 From thirtie yere olde and vpwarde, euen vnto fiftie yere olde: all that enter into the assemblie for the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Cogregation.

Ndị ikom niile gbara iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise, ndị toruru ije ozi nʼụlọ nzute,

40 So the nombers of them by their families, and by the houses of their fathers were two thousand sixe hundreth and thirtie.

dịka ikwu ha si dị bụ puku abụọ na narị isii na iri atọ.

41 These are the nombers of the families of the sonnes of Gershon: of all that did seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, whom Moses and Aaron did nomber according to the commandement of the Lord.

Ndị a niile bụ ndị si nʼikwu Geshọn ndị na-eje ozi nʼụlọ nzute. Mosis na Erọn gụrụ ha ọnụ dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis si dị.

42 The nombers also of the families of the sonnes of Merari by their families, and by the houses of their fathers,

A gụrụ ụmụ Merari ọnụ dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

43 From thirtie yeere olde and vpwarde, euen vnto fiftie yeere olde: all that enter into the assemblie for the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

Ndị ikom niile gbara iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise ndị toruru ije ozi nʼụlọ nzute

44 So the nombers of them by their families were three thousand, and two hundreth.

dịka ikwu ha si dị bụ puku atọ na narị abụọ.

45 These are the summes of ye families of the sonnes of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron nombred according to the commandement of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.

Ndị a niile bụ ndị si nʼikwu Merari ndị na-eje ozi nʼụlọ nzute. Mosis na Erọn gụrụ ha ọnụ dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis si dị.

46 So all the nombers of the Leuites, which Moses, and Aaron, and the princes of Israel nombred by their families and by the houses of their fathers,

Otu a ka Mosis na Erọn na ndị ndu ụmụ Izrel si gụọ ndị Livayị niile ọnụ dịka ikwu ha na ezinaụlọ ha si dị.

47 From thirtie yere olde and vpward, euen to fiftie yeere olde, euery one that came to doe his duetie, office, seruice and charge in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

Ndị ikom niile gbara iri afọ atọ ruo iri afọ ise, ndị toruru ije ozi na ibu ụlọ nzute ahụ

48 So the nombers of them were eight thousand, fiue hundreth and foure score.

Dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere site nʼaka Mosis si dị, e kenyere onye ọbụla ọrụ ya ma gwa ya ihe o kwesiri ibu. A gụrụ ha ọnụ dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
