Numbers 3
1 And these [are] the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day of YHWH’s speaking with Moses in Mount Sinai.
Sinai mae ah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah lokthuih naah, hae ih kaminawk loe Aaron hoi Mosi ih caanawk ah oh o.
2 And these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron: the firstborn Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar;
Aaron caanawk ih ahmin loe calu ah Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar hoi Ithamar.
3 these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed priests, whose hand he has consecrated for acting as priest.
Hae kaminawk loe qaima toksak hanah ampa mah situi bawh moe, pahoe ih Aaron caanawk ih ahmin ah oh.
4 And Nadab dies—Abihu also—before YHWH, in their bringing strange fire near before YHWH, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they did not have sons; and Eleazar—Ithamar also—acts as priest in the presence of their father Aaron.
Nadab hoi Abihu loe, Sinai praezaek ah sak koi ai kalah hmai hoi angbawnhaih a sak hoi pongah, Angraeng hmaa ah duek hoi hmaek; nihnik loe caa tawn hoi ai; to pongah Eleazar hoi Ithanar to ampa Aaron hmaa ah qaima tok a sak hoi.
5 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
6 “Bring the tribe of Levi near, and you have caused it to stand before Aaron the priest, and they have served him,
Levi acaengnawk to kawk loe, Aaron ih toksak hanah, anih hmaa ah caeh haih ah.
7 and kept his charge, and the charge of all the congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the Dwelling Place;
Nihcae loe Aaron hoi kahni im ah amkhueng kaminawk ih kangaih tok to, amkhuenghaih kahni im hmaa ah sah o tih.
8 and they have kept all the vessels of the Tent of Meeting, and the charge of the sons of Israel, to do the service of the Dwelling Place;
Nihcae loe kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im ih hmuenmaenawk boih khen o ueloe, Israel kaminawk mah sak han koi tok to sah o tih.
9 and you have given the Levites to Aaron and to his sons; they are surely given to him out of the sons of Israel.
Levi kaminawk to Aaron hoi a caanawk khaeah paek ah; Israel caanawk thung hoi qoi ah loe anih khaeah paek boih ah.
10 And you appoint Aaron and his sons, and they have kept their priesthood, and the stranger who comes near is put to death.”
Aaron hoi anih ih caanawk doeh qaima toksak hanah paek ah; hmuenciim taengah kacaeh minawk kalah loe dueksak han oh, tiah a naa.
11 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
12 “And I, behold, have taken the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel instead of every firstborn opening a womb among the sons of Israel, and the Levites have been Mine;
khenah, Israel kaminawk thung hoi tapen calu boih zuengah, Israel kaminawk thung hoi Levi kaminawk to ka qoih boeh pongah, Levi kaminawk loe kai ih ni;
13 for every firstborn [is] Mine, in the day of My striking every firstborn in the land of Egypt I have sanctified to Myself every firstborn in Israel, from man to beast; they are Mine; I [am] YHWH.”
tapen tangsuek hmuen boih loe kai ih ni; Izip prae thungah tapen tangsuek ka hum boih naah, Israel prae thungah loe tapen tangsuek to kai hanah pahoe o pongah, to hmuennawk loe kai ih hmuen ah oh o; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
14 And YHWH speaks to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Angraeng mah Sinai praezaek ah Mosi khaeah,
15 “Number the sons of Levi by the house of their fathers, by their families; every male from a son of a month and upward—you number them.”
Levi acaengnawk boih to kroek ah, khrah to pacoeng ranui bang kaom nihcae thung ih nongpanawk to kroek boih hanah a thuih pae.
16 And Moses numbers them according to the command of YHWH, as he has been commanded.
To pongah Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah nihcae to kroek.
17 And these are the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.

18 And these [are] the names of the sons of Gershon by their families: Libni and Shimei.

23 The families of the Gershonite encamp westward behind the Dwelling Place.
Gershon ih caanawk loe niduem bang kahni im hnukah om o tih.
24 And the prince of a father’s house for the Gershonite [is] Eliasaph son of Lael.
Lael capa Eliasaph loe Gershon imthung takoh zaehoikung ah oh.
25 And the charge of the sons of Gershon in the Tent of Meeting [is] the Dwelling Place, and the tent, its covering, and the veil at the opening of the Tent of Meeting,

28 In number, all the males, from a son of a month and upward, [are] eight thousand and six hundred, keeping the charge of the holy place.
Khrah to pacoeng ranui bang kaom nongpanawk to kroek boih naah, sang tazetto pacoeng, cumvai tarukto oh o; nihcae loe hmuenciim khenzawnkung ah oh o.
29 The families of the sons of Kohath encamp southward by the side of the Dwelling Place.
Kohath imthung takoh ih caanawk loe kahni im aloih bangah om o tih.
30 And the prince of a father’s house for the families of the Kohathite [is] Elizaphan son of Uzziel.
Uzziel capa Elizaphan loe Kohath imthung takoh zaehoikung ah oh.
31 And their charge [is] the Ark, and the table, and the lampstand, and the altars, and the vessels of the holy place with which they serve, and the veil, and all its service.
Nihcae loe Sithaw lokkamhaih thingkhong, caboi, hmaithawk, hmaicamnawk, angmacae toksakhaih hmuenciim thung ih laom sabaenawk, payang ih kahninawk hoi hmuennawk boih khenzawnkung ah oh o.
32 And Eleazar son of Aaron the priest [is] the prince of the princes of the Levites, [with] the oversight of the keepers of the charge of the holy place.
Aaron capa qaima Eleazar loe Levi kaminawk zaehoikung ah oh; anih loe hmuenciim toep kaminawk khenzawnkung ah oh.

imthung longhma taeng ih tungnawk, tung angdoethaih ahmuennawk, kahni im komhaih quinawk hoi takhuekhaih sumnawk khenzawnkung ah om o tih.
38 And those encamping before the Dwelling Place eastward, before the Tent of Meeting, at the east, [are] Moses and Aaron, and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the sons of Israel, and the stranger who comes near is put to death.
Mosi hoi Aaron ih caanawk loe ni angyae bang ih kahni im ahma hoi rangpui amkhuenghaih kahni im hma ah om o tih; nihcae loe Israel kaminawk zuengah hmuenciim khenzawnkung ah oh o; hmuenciim taengah angzo kalah kami loe paduek han oh.
39 All those numbered of the Levites whom Moses numbered—Aaron also—by the command of YHWH, by their families, every male from a son of a month and upward, [are] twenty-two thousand.
Angraeng mah paek ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi hoi Aaron mah khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom nihcae imthung takoh ih, nongpanawk to kroek boih naah, Levi acaengnawk loe sangqum boih ah, sing hnet, sang hnetto oh o.
40 And YHWH says to Moses, “Number every firstborn male of the sons of Israel from a son of a month and upward, and take up the number of their names;
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Israel caanawk thungah khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom nongpa to kroek o boih ah loe, nihcae ih ahmin to tarik ah.
41 and you have taken the Levites for Me (I [am] YHWH), instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of every firstling among the livestock of the sons of Israel.”
Israel kaminawk ih calu boih zuengah, Levi kaminawk to la ah loe, Israel kaminawk ih tapen tangsuek moinawk zuengah, Levi kaminawk ih maitaw to kai hanah la ah; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
42 And Moses numbers, as YHWH has commanded him, all the firstborn among the sons of Israel.
To pongah Angraeng mah paek ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah sak moe, Israel ih calu to kroek boih.
43 And every firstborn male, by the number of names, from a son of a month and upward, of their numbered ones, are twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three.
Khrah to pacoeng ranuih bang kaom, calu to kroek boih moe, nihcae ih ahmin to lak naah, sing hnet, sang hnet qui sarih, thumto oh o.
44 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
45 “Take the Levites instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of their livestock; and the Levites have been Mine; I [am] YHWH.
Israel calunawk boih zuengah, Levi kaminawk to la ah loe, nihcae ih maitaw zuengah, Levinawk ih maitaw to la ah; Levinawk loe kai ih kami ah ni oh o; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh.
46 And [from] those ransomed of the two hundred and seventy-three of the firstborn of the sons of Israel, who are more than the Levites,
Levi kaminawk pong pop, Israel calu cumvai hnet, qui sarih, thumto akrang ah, tiah a naa.
47 you have even taken five shekels apiece by the counted head—you take by the shekel of the holy place; the shekel [is] twenty gerahs;
Gerah pumphaeto kazit, hmaicam ah patoh ih tahhaih shekel baktih toengah, kami maeto khaeah shekel pangato la ah;
48 and you have given the money to Aaron and to his sons, whereby those over and above are ransomed.”
kamtlai Israel kaminawk akranghaih phoisa to Aaron hoi a caanawk khaeah paek ah.
49 And Moses takes the ransom money from those over and above those ransomed by the Levites;
To pongah Levinawk mah kamtlai Israel calunawk akranghaih phoisa to Mosi mah cong;
50 he has taken the money from the firstborn of the sons of Israel—one thousand and three hundred and sixty-five, by the shekel of the holy place;
Israel calunawk khaeah cong ih phoisanawk loe, hmuenciim ih shekel tahhaih hoi tah naah, shekel sang hatlai thum, qui taruk, pangato oh.
51 and Moses gives the money of those ransomed to Aaron and to his sons, according to the command of YHWH, as YHWH has commanded Moses.
Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi mah to akranghaih phoisa to Aaron hoi a caanawk khaeah paek.
