1 Chronicles 5
1 And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel—for he was the first-born; but, when the defiled his father's bed, was his birthright given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: so that the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the first-birth.
Njalo amadodana kaRubeni, izibulo likaIsrayeli (ngoba wayelizibulo, kodwa njengoba wayengcolise umbheda kayise, ubuzibulo bakhe banikwa amadodana kaJosefa indodana kaIsrayeli; futhi wayengabhalwanga njengezibulo;
2 For Judah became the mightiest of his brothers, and the prince descended from him: while the first-birthright belonged to Joseph, —
ngoba uJuda wayelamandla kulabafowabo, lowayengumbusi wavela kuye, kodwa ubuzibulo babungobukaJosefa).
3 The sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel were, Chanoch, and Pallu, Chezron, and Carmi.
Amadodana kaRubeni, izibulo likaIsrayeli: OHanoki, loPalu, uHezironi, loKarmi.
4 The sons of Joel: Shema'yah his son, Gog his son, Shim'i his son,
Amadodana kaJoweli: UShemaya indodana yakhe, uGogi indodana yakhe, uShimeyi indodana yakhe,
5 Michah his son, Reayah his son, Ba'al his son,
uMika indodana yakhe, uReyaya indodana yakhe, uBhali indodana yakhe,
6 Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneesser the king of Assyria carried into exile: he was the prince of the Reubenites.
uBehera indodana yakhe, uTiligathi-Pilineseri inkosi yeAsiriya eyamthumbayo; wayeyisiphathamandla sabakoRubeni.
7 And his brethren by their families, according to their genealogy after their generations, were, the chief, Je'iel, and Zecharyahu,
Njalo abafowabo ngensendo zabo, lapho bebhalwa ngokwezizukulwana zabo, bayizinhloko: OJeyiyeli, loZekhariya,
8 And Bela' the son of 'Azaz, the son of Shema', the son of Joel, who dwelt in 'Aro'er, and as far as Nebo and Ba'al-me'on;
loBhela indodana kaAzazi indodana kaShema indodana kaJoweli, owayehlala eAroweri, njalo kwaze kwaba seNebo leBhali-Meyoni.
9 And to the eastward he dwelt as far as the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates; because their cattle were numerous in the land of Gil'ad.
Langempumalanga wahlala kwaze kwaba sekungeneni kwenkangala kusukela emfuleni iYufrathi, ngoba izifuyo zabo zasezandile elizweni leGileyadi.
10 And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarenes, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents in the whole front of the land to the east of Gil'ad.
Ensukwini zikaSawuli balawula-ke impi lamaHagari, awa ngesandla sabo; bahlala emathenteni awo elizweni lonke lempumalanga yeGileyadi.
11 And the children of Gad dwelt alongside of them, in the land of Bashan as far as Salchah.
Labantwana bakoGadi bahlala maqondana labo elizweni leBashani kwaze kwaba seSaleka.
12 Joel the chief, and Shapham the next, and Ja'nai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
UJoweli inhloko, loShafamu owesibili, loJanayi loShafati eBashani.
13 And their brethren according to their family divisions were, Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba', and Jorai, and Ya'kan, and Zia', and 'Eber, seven.
Labafowabo ngendlu yaboyise: OMikayeli loMeshulamu loShebha loJorayi loJakani loZiya loEberi, beyisikhombisa.
14 These are the children of Abichayil the son of Churi, the son of Jaroach, the son of Gil'ad, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jachdo, the son of Buz:
Laba babengamadodana kaAbihayili indodana kaHuri indodana kaJarowa indodana kaGileyadi indodana kaMikayeli indodana kaJeshishayi indodana kaJahido indodana kaBuzi.
15 Achi the son of Abdiel the son of Guni, the chief of their family division.
UAhi indodana kaAbidiyeli indodana kaGuni wayeyinhloko yendlu yaboyise.
16 And they dwelt in Gil'ad, in Bashan, and in its minor towns, and in all the open districts of Sharon, as far as their terminations.
Basebehlala eGileyadi, eBashani, lemizaneni yayo, lakuwo wonke amadlelo eSharoni, kwaze kwaba sekuphumeni kwawo.
17 All these were recorded by their genealogies in the days of Jotham the king of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the king of Israel.
Bonke laba babhalwa ngezizukulwana zabo ezinsukwini zikaJothamu inkosi yakoJuda lensukwini zikaJerobhowamu inkosi yakoIsrayeli.
18 The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear shield and sword, and to draw the bow, and practised in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and sixty, that went out to the army.
Amadodana kaRubeni labakoGadi lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase, emadodeni angamaqhawe, athwala isihlangu lenkemba, anyathela idandili, lezingcitshi empini, ayeyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane lane lamakhulu ayisikhombisa lamatshumi ayisithupha, ephumela ebuthweni.
19 And they made war with the Hagarenes, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.
Basebelawula impi lamaHagari loJeturi loNafishi loNodabi.
20 And they obtained help against them, and the Hagarenes were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for to God they cried in the battle, and he was entreated by them; because they put their trust in him.
Bancediswa bemelene labo, amaHagari asenikelwa esandleni sabo, labo bonke ababelawo; ngoba bakhala kuNkulunkulu besempini, wasencengeka ngabo, ngoba bamthemba.
21 And they led away captive their cattle: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of human beings one hundred thousand.
Bathumba izifuyo zabo, amakamela azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amahlanu, lezimvu ezizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu, labobabhemi abazinkulungwane ezimbili, lemiphefumulo yabantu ezinkulungwane ezilikhulu.
22 For there fell down many slain; because the war was of God. And they dwelt in their stead until the exile.
Ngoba kwawa abanengi ababuleweyo, ngoba impi yayingekaNkulunkulu. Basebehlala ezindaweni zabo kwaze kwafika ukuthunjwa.
23 And the children of the half tribe of Menasseh dwelt in the land: from Bashan unto Ba'al-chermon and Senir and mount Chermon were they numerous.
Abantwana bengxenye yesizwe sakoManase basebehlala elizweni; kusukela eBashani kusiya eBhali-Hermoni leSeniri lentabeni yeHermoni bona banda.
24 And these were the heads of their family divisions: namely, 'Epher, and Yish'i, and Eliel, and 'Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodavyah, and Jachdiel, mighty men of valor, famous men, [and] heads of their family divisions.
Lalezi zinhloko zendlu yaboyise, ngitsho oEferi loIshi loEliyeli loAziriyeli loJeremiya loHodaviya loJahidiyeli, amadoda angamaqhawe alamandla, amadoda alamabizo, inhloko zendlu yaboyise.
25 But they trespassed against the God of their fathers, and went astray after the gods of the people of the land, whom God had destroyed from before them.
Kodwa bona kuNkulunkulu waboyise, baphinga ngokulandela onkulunkulu babantu balelolizwe, uNkulunkulu abachithayo phambi kwabo.
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul the king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath-pilnesser the king of Assyria, and he carried them into exile, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, and brought them unto Chalach, and Chabor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, even until this day.
Ngakho uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli wavusa umoya kaPhuli inkosi yeAsiriya, lomoya kaTiligathi-Pilineseri inkosi yeAsiriya, wabathumba, ngitsho abakoRubeni labakoGadi lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase, wabasa eHala leHabori leHara lemfuleni iGozani, kuze kube lamuhla.
