Numbers 3

1 Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in mount Sinai.

Hiche hi Sinai molchunga Pakaiyin Mose ahoupi lai a ana kijihlut Aaron le Mose insung khanggui thu chu ahi.

2 And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the first-born, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

Aaron chapateho min chu Nadab (atah pen), Abihu, Elezear chule Ithamar ahiuve.

3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests that were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.

Hiche Aaron chapateho chengse hin thempu kintheng atoh thei nading uva thao anu uva chule atumbeh a kilhandoh ahiuve.

4 And Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, when they offered strange fire before the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children; and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the presence of Aaron their father.

Ahinlah Nadab le Abihu chu Pathen umpet a Sinai gamthip a maicham asemlai uva Pathen thupeh toh kikal a meikong dihlou ahal lhon jeh chun, ani lhonin hiche muna chun athilhon tan ahi. Chapa dang aneitahlou jeh in kintheng natong ding chu adalhahlhon Eleazer le Ithamar chutoh apalhon Aaraon chubou ahitauve.

5 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

Hichun Pakaiyin Mose henga thu aseiyin,

6 'Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister unto him.

Levi phung le changho chu koukhom min lang, Aaron kintheng natoh ga kithopi ding in gapuiyin.

7 And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.

Amaho chu Aaron leh mipijenlea pang ding u, houbuh leh akimvel a kintheng natong a pang ding ahiuve.

8 And they shall keep all the furniture of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.

Levite jousen hiche ponbuh theng chu avettup dingu Israel mipite thalheng a ponbuh maicham a chu kin thengna atoh diu ahi.

9 And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons; they are wholly given unto him from the children of Israel.

Levi chilhahho jouse chun Aaron leh achapate vaihomna noi a umsah in. Amaho chu Israel mipiho jouse lah a kon a Aaron le achapate jenle ding leh kithopi ding a kipehdoh ah ahitauvin ahi.

10 And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, that they may keep their priesthood; and the common man that draweth nigh shall be put to death.'

Aaron le achapateho jouse chun thempu kintheng na atoh ding uvin seipeh in. Koi hijongleh nganse changlou a muntheng ganailut hochu thitei teidiu ahi.

11 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

Chuin Pakaiyin Mose kom a asei in,

12 'And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of every first-born that openeth the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be Mine;

“Ven, Levite hi Israel japi lah kon a Israel chapate apengmasa jouse thalheng a natong ding a kalhendoh ahitai. Leviteho jouse keiya ahi.

13 for all the first-born are Mine: on the day that I smote all the first-born in the land of Egypt I hallowed unto Me all the first-born in Israel, both man and beast, Mine they shall be: I am the LORD.'

Ajehchu chapa tahpen jouse keima a ahi. Egypt chapate lah a apeng masa jouse kanasuhgam nikho apatna keima Israel chapa tahpen jouse hi keidia atumbeh a ka lhendohsa ahin, mihem a hihen gancha a hi jongleh amaho jouse chu keia ahiuve; Keima Pakai chu kahi.”

14 And the LORD spoke unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying:

Pakaiyin Sinai molchung a chun Mose hengah thu aseikit in, hiti hin ati,

15 'Number the children of Levi by their fathers' houses, by their families; every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them.'

“Levite chu ama ama insung leh phung kailhah in amin u jihlut cheh in. Pasal jouse lhakhat a pat chunglam se jihlut in.”

16 And Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD, as he was commanded.

Hichun Mose chun Pakai thupeh bang chun minho chu ajihlut tan ahi.

17 And these were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.

32 Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest being prince of the princes of the Levites, and having the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary.

38 And those that were to pitch before the tabernacle eastward, before the tent of meeting toward the sunrising, were Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary, even the charge for the children of Israel; and the common man that drew nigh was to be put to death.

Maicham ponbuh mai lhang, solam niso lamkot lang sese chu, Israel mipi ho thalheng a Houbuh muntheng a natohna ding a mopohna nunungpen kipe, Mose le Aaron chapate ponbuh kisahna dinga ana kikoitup a ahi.

39 All that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of the LORD, by their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty and two thousand.

Mose le Aaron chun Pakai thupeh banga Levite phunghoa a kon in pasal lhakhatna pat chunglam se chu asim lhon in ahileh mi 22,000 alhing uvin ahi.

40 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Number all the first-born males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.

Hichun Pakaiyin Mose jah a aseiyin, “Tun nangman Israelte chapate apeng masa lhakhat lhingtasa apat chunglam jouse amin u jih lut in.

41 And thou shalt take the Levites for Me, even the LORD, instead of all the first-born among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel.'

Keima Pakai kahin, keima ding a Levite chu, Israel chapa tahpenho thalhelng ding a kikoitup teitei ding ahi. Chuleh Israelte pumpi a gancha apengdoh masa ho khel ding a Levite gancha ho chu kikoitup teitei ding ahi.

42 And Moses numbered, as the LORD commanded him, all the first-born among the children of Israel.

Hitichun Mosen Pathen thupeh bangtah in Israel chapate lah a atahpen ho chu asimtan ahi.

43 And all the first-born males according to the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen.

Lhakhat a lhingsa leh achunglam chapa tahpenho chu 22,273 anahiuve.

44 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

Hichun Pakaiyin Mose jah a aseiyin,

45 'Take the Levites instead of all the first-born among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be Mine, even the LORD'S.

“Levite chu Israel chapate lah a atahpen ho thalheng chun la in. Chuleh Israelte gancha apeng masa ho khel ding a Levite gancha ho chu nalah ding ahi. Keima Pakai kahi, Levite chu keiya ahibouve.

46 And as for the redemption of the two hundred and three score and thirteen of the first-born of the children of Israel, that are over and above the number of the Levites,

Levite sang in Israel chapate apeng masa mi 273 in atamjo uvin ahi. Amaho lhatdoh a aum thei na ding un,

47 thou shalt take five shekels apiece by the poll; after the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them — the shekel is twenty gerahs.

48 And thou shalt give the money wherewith they that remain over of them are redeemed unto Aaron and to his sons.'

Chapa pengmasa avahdoh ho lhatdoh na ding in hiche sum chu Aaron le achapate petan.”

49 And Moses took the redemption-money from them that were over and above them that were redeemed by the Levites;

Hiti chun Levite jat sang a hung tamjo Israel chapa tahpen ho lhatdoh a aum nading uvin Mosen in sum ho chu achom khom in ahi.

50 from the first-born of the children of Israel took he the money: a thousand three hundred and threescore and five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

Aman Israel chapate lah a apengmasa ho thalheng chun sum pum 1,365 achomdoh in ahi. Hiche ho khat cheh hi muntheng a Shekel khat cheh toh agihdan kibang cheh ahiuve.

51 And Moses gave the redemption-money unto Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.

Chuin Pathen in thu apeh bang bang chun, akilhatdoh thei nadiuvin Mose in hiche sumho chu Aaron le achapate apetan ahi.
