Numbers 32
1 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle; and they saw the land of Ya'zer, and the land of Gil'ad, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni ne batabani ba Gaadi baalina amagana g’ente n’ebisibo by’endiga; ebisolo byabwe nga bingi nnyo. Baatunuulira ensi ya Yazeri n’ensi ya Gireyaadi, ne balaba ng’ekitundu ekyo kituufu okulundiramu ebisolo byabwe.
2 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came, and said unto Moses, and unto Elazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, as followeth,
Ne bajja awali Musa ne Eriyazaali kabona, n’eri abakulembeze b’ekibiina ne babagamba nti,
3 'Ataroth, and Dibon, and Ya'zer, and Nimrah, and Cheshbon, and El'aleh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Be'on,
“Ebitundu bino: Atalisi, ne Diboni, ne Yazeri, ne Nimula, ne Kesuboni, ne Ereyale, ne Sebamu, ne Nebo ne Beoni,
4 The country which the Lord hath smitten before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle; and thy servants have cattle.
bye bitundu by’ensi Mukama Katonda gye yawangulira mu maaso g’abaana ba Isirayiri, nsi nnungi okulundiramu; ate ng’abaweereza bammwe tulina ebisolo byaffe bingi.”
5 And they said, If we have found grace in thy eyes, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession: do not compel us to go over the Jordan.
Ne bagamba nti, “Bwe kuba nga kwe kusiima kwammwe, mukkirize ebitundu by’ensi bino bituweebwe, ffe abaweereza bammwe, bibeere obutaka bwaffe. Temutusomosa Yoludaani.”
6 And Moses said unto the children of Gad, and unto the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to the war, and will ye sit here?
Musa n’agamba batabani ba Gaadi ne batabani ba Lewubeeni nti, “Mwagala baganda bammwe bagende batabaale, nga mmwe mwetuulidde wano?
7 And wherefore will you turn aside the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord hath given them?
Lwaki abaana ba Isirayiri mwagala okubamalamu amaanyi mu mitima gyabwe mubalemese okuyingira mu nsi Mukama Katonda gy’abawadde?
8 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea' to see the land.
Ne bakadde bammwe bwe baakola bwe nabatuma okuva e Kadesubanea okuketta ensi.
9 For they went up as far as the valley of Eshcol, and they saw the land, and then they turned aside the heart of the children of Israel, so that they would not go into the land which the Lord had given them.
Kubanga bwe baayambuka mu Kiwonvu ekya Esukoli, ensi ne bagiraba, ne bayeengebula emitima gy’abaana ba Isirayiri baleme okugenda okuyingira mu nsi Mukama Katonda gye yali abawadde.
10 And the anger of the Lord was kindled on that day, and he swore, saying,
Obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubuubuuka ku lunaku olwo, n’alayira nti,
11 Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:
‘Olw’okubanga tebaŋŋondedde n’omutima gwabwe gwonna, tewalibaawo n’omu ku basajja ab’emyaka okuva ku myaka makumi abiri okweyongerayo egy’obukulu, abaasimbuka okuva mu Misiri, aliraba ku nsi gye nalayira okuwa Ibulayimu ne Isaaka ne Yakobo;
12 Save Caleb the son of Yephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; for they have wholly followed the Lord.
tewalibaawo n’omu okuggyako Kalebu mutabani wa Yefune Omukenizi, ne Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni, kubanga abo baagondera Mukama Katonda n’omutima gwabwe gwonna.’
13 And the anger of the Lord was thus kindled against Israel, and he made them wander about in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation was spent, that had done the evil in the eyes of the Lord.
Obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda ne bubuubuukira Isirayiri, n’abatambuliza mu ddungu okumala emyaka amakumi ana, okutuusa omulembe gw’abo abaasobya mu maaso ga Mukama lwe gwaggweerera.
14 And now, behold, ye are risen up in your father's stead, a new race of sinful men, to augment yet more the fierce anger of the Lord toward Israel.
“Kale nno mmwe muli bazzukulu baabwe, batabani b’abakozi b’ebibi, nga mwongera okunakuwaza Mukama Katonda anyiigire Isirayiri!
15 For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet longer leave them in the wilderness; and ye will thus be destruction to all this people.
Kubanga singa mumukuba amabega ne mutakola by’ayagala ne mutamugoberera, abantu be ajja kwongera okubeesammulako, nate abaleke mu ddungu omulundi ogwokubiri, era bwe balizikirira mwe mulibaako obuvunaanyizibwa obwo.”
16 And they came near unto him, and said, Sheepfolds will we build for our cattle here, and cities for our little ones;
Ne bamusemberera ne bamuddamu nti, “Twagala tuzimbe wano ebiraalo eby’ebisibo by’ebisolo byaffe, tuzimbe n’ebigo eby’abaana baffe abato.
17 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until that we have brought them unto their place; and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities, because of the inhabitants of the land.
Naye ffe tubagalire ebyokulwanyisa, tukulembere abaana ba Isirayiri tubatuuse mu bifo byabwe. Olwo abaana baffe abato balisigala mu bibuga bye tuzimbyeko ebigo ebinywevu, kubanga mu nsi muno mulimu abantu baamu.
18 We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have acquired for themselves every man his inheritance.
Tetugenda kudda mu maka gaffe okutuusa ng’abaana ba Isirayiri buli omu amaze okuweebwa obutaka bwe.
19 For we will not take possession with them on the other side of the Jordan, and farther on: when our inheritance hath come to us on this side of the Jordan eastward.
Ffe tetugenda kugabana nabo ku butaka obwo obuli emitala wa Yoludaani n’okweyongerayo; kubanga obutaka bwaffe tuliba tubufunye ku ludda luno olwa Buvanjuba bwa Yoludaani.”
20 And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will arm yourselves before the Lord for the war;
Awo Musa n’abagamba nti, “Bwe munaakola bwe mutyo, ne mukwata ebyokulwanyisa mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda nga mwetegekedde olutalo,
21 And every armed man of you will go over the Jordan before the Lord, until he have driven out his enemies from before him;
ne musomoka Yoludaani n’ebyokulwanyisa byammwe mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, okutuusa ng’agobye abalabe be mu maaso ge,
22 And when, only after the land hath been subdued before the Lord, ye will return, and ye be thus guiltless before the Lord, and before Israel: then shall this land be yours for a possession before the Lord.
n’ensi ng’ewanguddwa mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, olwo muliyinza okukomawo nga temuliiko kya kuvunaanyizibwa eri Mukama n’eri Isirayiri. Ekitundu ky’ensi kino ne kibeera omugabo gwammwe mu maaso ga Mukama.
23 But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord; and ye shall experience the punishment of your sin which will overtake you.
“Naye bwe mutalikola bwe mutyo, muliba musobezza nnyo awali Mukama Katonda, era mutegeerere ddala ng’ekibi kyammwe ekyo kiribayigga ne kibakwasa.
24 Build yourselves cities for your little ones, and folds for your flocks; and that which hath proceeded out of your mouth shall ye do.
Kale muzimbire abaana bammwe abato ebibuga eby’ebigo ebinywevu, n’ebisolo byammwe mubizimbire ebiraalo, era mukole n’ebyo bye musuubizza.”
25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben said unto Moses, as followeth, Thy servants will do as my Lord commandeth.
Abaana ba Gaadi n’abaana ba Lewubeeni ne bagamba Musa nti, “Ffe abaweereza bo tujja kukola nga ggwe mukama waffe bw’otulagidde.
26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall remain there in the cities of Gil'ad;
Abaana baffe abato ne bakazi baffe, n’ebisibo byaffe eby’endiga n’ebiraalo byaffe eby’ente byonna bijja kusigala wano mu bibuga bya Gireyaadi.
27 But thy servants will pass over, every one that is armed for the army, before the Lord, to the war, as my Lord speaketh.
Naye abaweereza bo, buli musajja eyeewaddeyo okutabaala ajja kusomoka alwanire mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, nga ggwe mukama waffe bw’ogambye.”
28 And Moses commanded concerning them Elazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chiefs of the families of the tribes of the children of Israel;
Awo Musa n’abawaako ebiragiro eri Eriyazaali kabona, n’eri Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni, n’eri abakulembeze b’empya ez’omu bika by’abaana ba Isirayiri.
29 And Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben do pass with you over the Jordan, every one that is armed for the war, before the Lord, and the land shall be subdued before you: then shall ye give to them the land of Gil'ad for a possession;
Musa n’agamba nti, “Batabani ba Gaadi ne batabani ba Lewubeeni, buli musajja eyeetegese okutabaala mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, bwe balisomoka nammwe Yoludaani, n’ensi eri mu maaso gammwe n’ewangulwa, kale mubawanga ensi ya Gireyaadi okubeera omugabo gw’obutaka bwabwe.
30 But if they should not pass over armed with you, they shall take possessions among you in the land of Canaan.
Naye bwe basomokanga nammwe nga tebalina byakulwanyisa, kale baligabanira wamu nammwe eby’obutaka bwabwe mu nsi ya Kanani.”
31 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, That which the Lord hath spoken concerning thy servants, even so will we do.
Batabani ba Gaadi ne batabani ba Lewubeeni ne baddamu nti, “Ffe abaweereza bo tujja kukola nga Mukama bw’atugambye.
32 We will indeed pass over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, while ours remaineth the possession of our inheritance on this side of the Jordan.
Tujja kusomokera mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda tuyingire mu nsi ya Kanani nga twesibye ebyokulwanyisa, naye omugabo gwaffe ogw’obutaka bwaffe gujja kusigala ku ludda luno olwa Yoludaani.”
33 And Moses gave unto them, to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Menasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sichon, the king of the Emorites, and the kingdom of 'Og, the king of Bashan, the land, with its cities within the boundaries, the cities of the country round about.
Awo Musa n’abagabira, abaana ba Gaadi n’abaana ba Lewubeeni, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase mutabani wa Yusufu, obwakabaka bwa Sikoni kabaka w’Abamoli, n’obwakabaka bwa Ogi kabaka w’e Basani, n’abawa ensi n’ebibuga byamu, n’amatwale gaayo n’ebibuga byamu ebigyetoolodde.
34 And the children of Gad built Dibon, and 'Ataroth, and 'Aro'er,
Batabani ba Gaadi ne bazimba ebibuga bino: Diboni, ne Atalosi, ne Aloweri,
35 And 'Atroth-shophan, and Ya'zer, and Yogbehah.
ne Aterosi Sofani, ne Yazeri, ne Yogubeka;
36 And Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, fortified cities, and folds for flocks,
ne Besu Nimira, ne Besu Kalaani, nga bye bibuga ebiriko ebigo ebinywevu, ne bakola n’ebisibo by’ebisolo byabwe.
37 And the children of Reuben built Cheshbon, and El'aleh, and Kiryathayim,
Batabani ba Lewubeeni ne bazimba ebibuga bino: Kesuboni, ne Ereyale, ne Kiriyasayimu,
38 And Nebo, and Ba'al-me'on [their names being changed], and Shibmah; and they gave the former names unto the cities which they built.
ne Nebo, ne Baalu Myoni (amannya gaabyo gaakyusibwa), ne Sibima. Ebibuga bye baddaabiriza baabituuma amannya malala.
39 And the children of Machir the son of Menasseh went to Gil'ad, and conquered it, and dispossessed the Emorites who were in it.
Abaana ba Makiri, mutabani wa Manase, ne bagenda e Gireyaadi, ensi eyo ne bagiwamba, ne bagobamu Abamoli abaagibeerangamu.
40 And Moses gave Gil'ad unto Machir the son of Menasseh; and he dwelt therein.
Bw’atyo Musa n’awa Gireyaadi, Makiri mutabani wa Manase, n’atuula omwo.
41 And Yair the son of Menasseh went and conquered the small towns thereof, and called them Chavoth-yair.
Yayiri mutabani wa Manase n’agenda ne yeetwalira obubuga obutonotono, n’abutuuma Kavosu Yayiri.
42 And Nobach went and conquered Kenath, and the villages thereof, and called it Nobach, after his own name.
Ne Noba naye n’awamba Kenasi n’obwalo obukyetoolodde, n’akituuma Noba erinnya lye.
