< Numbers 3 >

1 And these are the generations of Aaron and Moses, on the day that the Lord spoke with Moses on mount Sinai.
यो परमप्रभु सीनै पर्वतमाथि मोशासँग बोल्नुहुँदा हारून र मोशाका सन्तानहरूको इतिहास हो ।
2 And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: the firstborn Nadab, and Abihu, Elazar, and Ithamar.
हारूनका छोराका नाउँहरू यिनै हुन्: जेठा नादाब, अबीहू, एलाजार र ईतामार थिए ।
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests that were anointed, who were consecrated to minister as priests.
हारून पुजारीका छोराहरूका नाउँहरू यिनै हुन् जसलाई पुजारीको रूपमा अभिषेक गरिएको थियो र पुजारीको रूपमा सेवा गर्न नियुक्‍त गरिएका थिए ।
4 And Nadab and Abihu died before the Lord, when they offered a strange fire before the Lord, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Elazar and Ithamar ministered as priests in the life-time of Aaron their father.
तर नादाब र अबीहूले सीनै पर्वतमा अस्वीकार्य आगो परमप्रभुलाई चढाउँदा तिनीहरू उहाँको सामु मरे । नादाब र अबीहूका कुनै छोराछोरी थिएन । यसैले एलाजार र ईतामारले तिनीहरूका बुबा हारूनसँग पुजारीको रूपमा सेवा गरे ।
5 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
6 Bring the tribe of Levi near, and present the same before Aaron the priest, that they may serve him.
“लेवीको कुललाई ले र तिनीहरूले पुजारी हारूनलाई सहायता गर्नको निम्ति तिनीहरूलाई तिनीकहाँ प्रस्तुत गर् ।
7 And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tent of the congregation, to do the service of the tabernacle.
तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालको सामु हारून र सारा समुदायको तर्फबाट दायित्वहरू पुरा गर्नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानमा सेवा गर्नुपर्छ ।
8 And they shall keep all the vessels of the tent of the congregation, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालका सबै सरसामानको हेरचाह गर्नुपर्छ र तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानको सेवा वहन गर्न इस्राएलका कुलहरूलाई सहायता गर्नुपर्छ ।
9 And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: as associates are they given unto him out of the children of Israel.
तैँले लेवीहरू हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई सेवा गर्न तिनलाई सहायता गर्न तिनीहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपमा सुम्पिएका छन् ।
10 And Aaron and his sons shalt thou instruct, that they shall guard well their priest's office; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
तैँले हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई पुजारीको रूपमा नियुक्‍त गर्नुपर्छ र नजिक आउने कुनै पनि मानिसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।”
11 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
12 And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from the midst of the children of Israel instead of every first-born that openeth the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine.
“हेर्, मैले लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट लिएको छु । मैले यो इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका जेठा छोराहरूको सट्टा लिएको छु । लेवीहरू मेरा हुन् ।
13 Because mine is every first-born; on the day when I smote every first-born in the land of Egypt I hallowed unto me every first-born in Israel, both man and beast: mine shall they be; I am the Lord.
पहिले जन्मेका सबै मेरा हुन् । मैले मिश्र देशमा पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई आक्रमण गरेको दिन नै इस्राएलका मानिस र पशुहरू दुवैको पहिले जन्मेका सबैलाई मेरो निम्ति अलग गरेँ । तिनीहरू मेरा हुन् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।”
14 And the Lord spoke unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
परमप्रभुले सीनैको मरुभूमिमा मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
15 Number the children of Levi after their divisions, by their families; every male of them from a month old and upward shalt thou number.
“लेवीका हरेक कुल र परिवार-परिवारअनुसार गन्ती गर् । एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका सबै पुरुषको गन्ती गर् ।
16 And Moses numbered them according to the order of the Lord, as he had been commanded.
मोशाले परमप्रभुको वचनअनुसार उहाँले आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम तिनीहरूको गन्ती गरे ।
17 And these were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kehath, and Merari.
लेवीका छोराहरूका नाउँहरू गेर्शोन, कहात र मरारी थिए ।
18 And these are the names of the sons of Gershon after their families: Libni, and Shimi.

20 And the sons of Merari after their families: Machli, and Mushi; these are the families of the Levites according to their family divisions.
मरारीका छोराहरूबाटका वंशहरू महली र मूशी थिए । कुल-कुलअनुसारका लेवीका कुलहरू यिनै हुन् ।
21 Of Gershon: the family of the Libnites, and the family of the Shimites; these are the families of the Gershunites.
लिब्‍नी र शिमीका कुलहरू गेर्शोनबाट आउँछ । गेर्शोनीहरूका कुलहरू यिनै हुन् ।
22 Those that were numbered of them, by the numbering of all the males from a month old and upward, even those that were numbered of them, were seven thousand and five hundred.
एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका गनिएका सबै पुरुष जम्मा ७,५०० थिए ।
23 The families of the Gershunites used to encamp behind the tabernacle, westward.
गेर्शोनीहरूका कुलहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानको पश्‍चिमपट्टि छाउनी लगाउनू ।
24 And the prince of the family division of the Gershunites was Elyassaph the son of Lael.
लाएलका छोरा एल्यासापले गेर्शोनीहरूका कुलहरूको नेतृत्व गर्नुपर्छ ।
25 And the charge of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation was the tabernacle and the tent, its covering, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
गेर्शोनको परिवारले पवित्र वासस्थानलगायत भेट हुने पालको हेरचाह गर्नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूले पाल, यसको छत र भेट हुने पालको प्रवेश-द्वारको रूपमा प्रयोग गरिएको पर्दाको देखरेख गर्नुपर्छ ।
26 And the hangings of the court, and the curtain for the door of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar, round about, and its cords for all the service thereof.
तिनीहरूले चोकका पर्दाहरू अनि पवित्र वासस्थान र वेदी वरिपरिका पर्दाहरूको देखरेख गर्नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पाल र यसमा भएका सबै थोकको देखरेख गर्नुपर्छ ।
27 And of Kehath: the family of the 'Amramites, and the family of the Yizharites, and the family of the Chebronites, and the family of the 'Uzzielites; these are the families of the Kehathites.
यिनीहरू कहातका कुलहरू हुन्ः अम्रामीहरूका कुल, इसहारीहरूका कुल, हेब्रोनीहरूका कुल र उज्‍जीएलीहरूका कुल । यिनीहरू कहाती कुलका हुन् ।
28 By the numbering of all the males, from a month old and upward, they were eight thousand and six hundred, keeping the charge of the sanctuary.
परमप्रभुका सरसामानहरूको देखरेख गर्न एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका गन्ती गरिएका पुरुषहरू ८,६०० थिए ।
29 The families of the sons of Kehath used to encamp on the side of the tabernacle, southward.

30 And the prince of the division of the families of the Kehathites was Elizaphan the son of 'Uzziel.
उज्‍जीएलका छोरा एलीजापानले कहातीहरूका कुलहरूको नेतृत्व गर्नुपर्छ ।
31 And their charge was the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary which are used for the service, and the vail, and all belonging thereto.
तिनीहरूले सन्दूक, टेबुल, सामदान, वेदीहरू, तिनीहरूका सेवामा प्रयोग गरिने पवित्र थोकहरू, पर्दा र यससम्बन्धी सबै कामको देखरेख गर्नुपर्छ ।
32 And the chief over the princes of the Levites was Elazar the son of Aaron the priest, having the oversight of those that kept the charge of the sanctuary.

33 Of Merari: the family of the Machlites, and the family of the Mushites; these are the families of Merari.
मरारीबाट दुईवटा कुल आएका छन्ः महलीहरूका कुल र मूशीहरूका कुल । यी कुलहरू मरारीबाट आएका हुन् ।
34 And those that were numbered of them, by the numbering of all the males, from a month old and upward, were six thousand and two hundred.
एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका गनिएका पुरुषहरू ६,२०० थिए ।
35 And the chief of the division of the families of Merari was Zuriel the son of Abichayil: they used to encamp on the side of the tabernacle, northward.
अबीहेलका छोरा सूरीएलले मरारी कुलको नेतृत्व गर्नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानको उत्तरतिर छाउनी लाउनुपर्छ ।
36 And under the custody and charge of the sons of Merari were the boards of the tabernacle, and its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets, and all its vessels, and all that belongeth thereto,
मरारीका सन्तानहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानका फल्याकहरू, बारहरू, खामाहरू, आधारहरू, सबै सरसमान र तिनीहरूसँग सम्बन्धित सबै थोक, साथै
37 And the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords.
चोकका वरिपरिका खामाहरू, आधारहरू, किलाहरू र सोरीहरूको देखरेख गर्नुपर्छ ।
38 But those that encamped before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation toward the rising of the sun, were Moses, and Aaron, and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that came nigh was to be put to death.
मोशा, हारून र तिनका छोराहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानको पूर्वतिर अर्थात् घाम झुल्कनेतिर छाउनी लगाउनुर्छ । तिनीहरू पवित्र स्थानको कर्तव्यहरू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका कर्तव्यहरू पुरा गर्न उत्तरदायी छन् । यसको नजिक आउने अन्य कुनै पनि व्यक्‍ति मारियोस् ।
39 All that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses numbered with Aaron, at the order of the Lord, according to their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty and two thousand.
परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ मोशा र हारूनले लेवीका कुल एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका सबै पुरुषको गन्ती गरे । तिनीहरूले बाइस हजार पुरुषहरू गन्ती गरे ।
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.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सबै पहिले जन्मेका पुरुषहरूको गन्ती गर् । तिनीहरूका नाउँको सूची बना ।
41 And thou shalt take the Levites for me, I am the Lord, instead of all the first-born among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the first-born among the cattle of the children of Israel.
म परमप्रभु हुँ, तैँले मेरो निम्ति लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा र इस्राएलका सन्तानहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूका पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा लेवीहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूलाई लिनुपर्छ ।”
42 And Moses numbered, as the Lord had commanded him, all the first-born among the children of Israel.
परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएअनुसार मोशाले इस्राएलका सबै जेठा-जेठाको गन्ती गरे ।
43 And all the first-born males, by the numbering of the names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred and seventy and three.
तिनले एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका सबै जेठा छोराहरूको गन्ती गरे ।
44 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
तिनले गन्ती गरेका पुरुषको सङ्ख्या २२,२७३ थियो । फेरि, परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
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: I am the Lord.
“इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा लेवीहरूलाई ले र मानिसहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूका सट्टामा लेवीहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूलाई ले ।
46 And [for] those that are to be redeemed, the two hundred and seventy and three of the first-born of the children of Israel, who are more than the Levites,
म परमप्रभु हुँ, लेवीहरू मेरा हुन् । लेवीहरूको सङ्ख्याभन्दा बढी भएका २७३ जना पहिले जन्मेकाहरूका हरेकको निम्ति तैँले पाँच-पाँच शेकेल लिनुपर्छ ।
47 Thou shalt take five shekels apiece for the poll; after the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take, twenty gerahs to the shekel;
तैँले तेरो मापदण्डको रूपमा पवित्र स्थानको शेकेल नै प्रयोग गर्नुपर्छ । एक शकेलको बिस गेरा हुन्छ ।
48 And thou shalt give unto Aaron and to his sons the money, [for] those who are to be redeemed of those that are over the number of them.
त्यो छुटकाराको मूल्य तैँले हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ ।”
49 And Moses took the redemption-money of those that were over in number above those who were redeemed by the Levites:
यसैले लेवीहरूद्वारा छुटकारा पाएका सङ्ख्याभन्दा धेरै भएकाहरूबाट मोशाले छुटकाराको मूल्य जम्मा गरे ।
50 Of the first-born of the children of Israel did he take the money; a thousand three hundred and sixty and five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
मोशाले इस्राएलको पहिले जन्मेकाहरूबाट पैसा उठाए । तिनले पवित्र स्थनाको शेकेलअनुसार १,३६५ शेकेल उठाए ।
51 And Moses gave the money of those who were redeemed unto Aaron and unto his sons, by the order of the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
मोशाले त्यो छुटकाराको मूल्य हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिए । परमप्रभुले उहाँको वचनद्वारा आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम मोशाले सबै थोक गरे ।
