< Numbers 3 >

1 Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that YHWH spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.
Yeroo Waaqayyo Tulluu Siinaa irratti Museetti dubbatetti seenaan sanyii Aroonii fi Musee kanaa dha.
2 These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Maqaan ilmaan Aroon: Naadaab hangafticha, Abiihuu, Eleʼaazaarii fi Iitaamaar.
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.
Kunneen maqaawwan ilmaan Aroon jechuunis luboota muudaman kanneen akka luboota taʼanii tajaajilaniif dibaman sanaa ti.
4 Nadab and Abihu died before YHWH, when they offered strange fire before YHWH, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children. Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the presence of Aaron their father.
Naadaabii fi Abiihuu garuu yeroo Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti ibidda hin eeyyamamin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeessanitti fuuluma isaa duratti duʼan. Isaan ilmaan tokko illee hin qaban ture. Kanaafuu Eleʼaazaarii fi Iitaamaar bara abbaan isaanii Aroon lubbuun jiraatetti luboota taʼanii tajaajilan.
5 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
6 "Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.
“Gosa Lewwii fidiitii akka isaan Aroon lubicha gargaaraniif isa dura dhaabi.
7 They shall keep his requirements, and the requirements of the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Isaanis hojii dunkaana qulqulluu hojjechuudhaan waan isa irraa barbaadamuu fi waan waldaa hunda irraa barbaadamu fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti haa raawwatan.
8 They shall keep all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting, and the obligations of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Isaan hojii dunkaana qulqulluu hojjetanii dirqama Israaʼelootaa guutuudhaan miʼa dunkaana wal gaʼii hunda haa eegan.
9 You shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the children of Israel.
Lewwota sana Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenni; isaan warra saba Israaʼel keessaa guutumaan guutuutti isatti kennamanii dha.
10 And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall attend to their priesthood; but the unauthorized person who comes near shall be put to death."
Ati akka isaan luboota taʼanii tajaajilaniif Aroonii fi ilmaan isaa muudi; namni biraa kan iddoo qulqulluu sanatti dhiʼaatu garuu ajjeefamuu qaba.”
11 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
12 "Look, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine:
“Kunoo ani Israaʼeloota keessaa qooda dhiira hangafa dubartoota Israaʼel hundaa Lewwota fudhadheera. Lewwonni kan koo ti;
13 for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I made holy to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and animal. They shall be mine. I am YHWH."
hangafti hundinuu kan kootii. Ani yeroo biyya Gibxi keessatti hangafa hunda ajjeesetti hangafa Israaʼel hunda jechuunis namas taʼu horii ofii kootiif addaan baafadheera. Isaan kan koo taʼan. Ani Waaqayyo.”
14 YHWH spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Waaqayyo Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
15 "Count the descendants of Levi by their fathers' houses, by their families. You shall count every male from a month old and upward."
“Lewwota maatii isaaniitii fi balbala isaaniitiin lakkaaʼi. Dhiira jiʼa tokkoo yookaan hammasii olii hunda lakkaaʼi.”
16 Moses numbered them according to the word of YHWH, as he was commanded.
Museen akkuma dubbiin Waaqayyoo isa ajajetti isaan lakkaaʼe.

39 All who were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of YHWH, by their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
Lewwonni lakkaaʼaman hundi kanneen Musee fi Aroon ajaja Waaqayyootiin akkuma balbala balbala isaaniitti lakkaaʼan, dhiironni jiʼa tokkoo fi hammasii olii hundi 22,000 turan.
40 YHWH said to Moses, "Number all the firstborn males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Dhiirota Israaʼel hangafoota kanneen jiʼa tokkootii fi hammasii olii hunda lakkaaʼii maqaa isaanii barreessi.
41 You shall take the Levites for me (I am YHWH) instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the livestock of the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the livestock of the children of Israel."
Qooda ijoollee Israaʼel kanneen hangafa taʼan hundaa Lewwota naa fudhadhu; qooda ilmaan hangafa horii Israaʼelootaa hundaas horii Lewwotaa naa fudhadhu. Ani Waaqayyo.”
42 Moses numbered, as YHWH commanded him, all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
Museen akkuma Waaqayyo isa ajajetti hangafoota Israaʼel hunda lakkaaʼe.
43 All the firstborn males according to the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those who were numbered of them, were twenty-two thousand two hundred seventy-three.

Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
45 "Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of their livestock; and the Levites shall be mine. I am YHWH.
“Qooda ijoollee Israaʼel kanneen hangafa taʼan hundaa Lewwota fudhadhu; qooda horii Israaʼelootaas horii Lewwotaa fudhadhu. Lewwonni kan koo ti. Ani Waaqayyo.
46 For the redemption of the two hundred seventy-three of the firstborn of the children of Israel, who exceed the number of the Levites,
Israaʼeloota hangafoota 273 kanneen baayʼina Lewwotaa caalan furuuf,
47 you shall take five shekels apiece for each one; after the shekel of the sanctuary you shall take them (the shekel is twenty gerahs):
tokkoo tokkoo isaaniitiif akkuma madaalii saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti saqilii shan shan fuudhi; saqiliin tokko geeraa digdama.
48 and you shall give the money, with which the remainder of them is redeemed, to Aaron and to his sons."
Maallaqa Israaʼeloota dabalaman furuuf fuudhame sanas Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenni.”
49 Moses took the redemption money from those who exceeded the number of those who were redeemed by the Levites;
Museen maallaqa sana Israaʼeloota lakkoobsaan warra Lewwotaan furamaniin ol taʼan sana irraa fuudhe.
50 from the firstborn of the children of Israel he took the money, one thousand three hundred sixty-five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:
Innis akka madaalii saqilii iddoo qulqulluutti meetii saqilii 1,365 ulfaattu Israaʼeloota hangafa irraa fuudhe.
51 and Moses gave the redemption money to Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of YHWH, as YHWH commanded Moses.
Museenis akkuma dubbii Waaqayyootti, akkuma Waaqni Musee ajajetti maallaqa furii sana Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenne.
