Numbers 10
1 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
BWANA alinena na Musa, akasema,
2 "Make two trumpets of silver. You shall make them of beaten work. You shall use them for the calling of the congregation, and for the journeying of the camps.
“tengenza tarumbeta mbili za fedha. Uzitengeneze kwa kufua hizo fedha. Utazitumia hizo tarumbeta kwa kuwaita watu waje pamoja na kwa kuwaita watu wote wakati wa kuondoka kwenye kambi zao.
3 When they blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
Makuhani watapiga tarumbeta kwa ajili ya kuwaita watu wote mbele yako kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania.
4 But if they blow just one, then the leaders, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.
Kama makuhani watapiga tarumbeta moja tu, basi viongozi, vichwa koo za Israeli ndipo watakapokutana kwako.
5 When you blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall go forward.
Utakapopiga tarumbeta ya sauti kuu, ile kambi ya upande wa mashariki itaanza kusafiri.
6 When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall go forward. They shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
Nawe utakapopiga tarumeta kwa sauti kuu mara ya pili, ile kambi ya upande wa kusini wataanza kusafiri. Watapiga tarumbeta kwa sauti kuu ili kuanza safari yao.
7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.
Watu wote watakapokutana pamoja, piga hizo tarumbeta lakini si kwa sauti kuu.
8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. This shall be to you for a statute forever throughout your generations.
Wana wa Haruni, makuhani, watapiga hizo tarumbeta. Huu ndio utakaokuwa utaratibu wa watu wako kwa vizazi vyote.
9 When you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before YHWH your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
Nanyi mtakapoenda vitani katika ardhi yenu dhidi ya maadui wenu wanaowakandamiza, ndipo mtakapotoa ishara ya sauti ya tarumbeta. Mimi, BWANA Mungu wako nitawaita kuwakumbuka na kuwaokoa kutoka kwa maadui wenu.
10 "Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God. I am YHWH your God."
Pia, wakati wa kusherehekea, sikukuu zenu za kawaida na katika miandamo ya miezi, mtapiga tarumbeta zenu kwa heshima ya sadaka zenu za kuteketezwa na kwa sadaka zenu za amani. Huu utakuwa ukumbusho wenu kwangu, Mungu wenu. Mimi ndimi BWANA Mungu wenu.”

29 Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' brother-in-law, "We are journeying to the place of which YHWH said, 'I will give it to you.' Come with us, and we will treat you well; for YHWH has spoken good concerning Israel."
Musa alinena na Hobibu mwana wa Reueli wa Kabila la Midiani. Reueli alikuwa baba mke wa Musa. Musa akanena na Hobibu akasema, “Tunasafiri kuelekea mahali ambapo BWANA ametuahidi. BWANA alisema kuwa, “Nitawapeni ninyi hilo eneo, 'Njoni pamoja nasi na tutawatendea mema. BWANA ameahidi kuwafanyia mema Waisraeli.”
30 He said to him, "I will not go; but I will depart to my own land, and to my relatives."
Lakini Hobibu akmwambia Musa, “Sitaambatana nanyi.”
31 He said, "Do not leave us, please; because you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.
Naye Musa akamjibu, “Tafadhali msituache. Mnajua jinsi ilivyo kuweka kambi jangwani. Tunaomba mtujali.
32 And it shall be, if you go with us, that it shall be that whatever good YHWH does to us, we will do the same to you."
Kama mtaambatana nasi tutawatendea mema sawa na jinsi BWANA anavyotutendea.”
33 They set forward from the Mount of YHWH three days' journey. The ark of the covenant of YHWH went before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting place for them.
Walisafiri kutoka mlima wa BWANA kwa siku tatu. Sanduku la agano la BWANA liliwatangulia kwa siku tatu ili kupata mahali pa kupumzika.
34 The cloud of YHWH was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.
Wingu la BWANA lilikuwa juu yao muda wote wa mchana walipokuwa safarini.
35 It happened, when the ark went forward, that Moses said, "Rise up, YHWH, and let your enemies be scattered. Let those who hate you flee before you."
Kila hilo sanduku liliposafiri kwenda mbele, Musa alisema, “Inuka BWANA, Uwatawanye maadui wako. Uwafanye wale wanaokuchukia kukukimbia.”
36 When it rested, he said, "Return, YHWH, to the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel."
Na kila lile sanduku liliposimama, Musa alisema, “BWANA uwarudie, hawa Waisraeli makumi elfu.”
