< Numbers 34 >

1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
2 Command the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them, When, ye, are coming into the land of Canaan, this is the land which shall fall unto you, as an inheritance, even the land of Canaan, by the boundaries thereof.
“Lagira abaana ba Isirayiri ng’obagamba nti, ‘Bwe muyingiranga mu Kanani, gye mbawa okuba ensi yammwe ey’obutaka bwammwe obw’enkalakkalira, zino ze ziribeera ensalo zaayo:
3 Ye shall therefore have a south corner, from the desert of Zin, on the side of Edom, —so shall ye have a south boundary, from the end of the salt sea, eastward:
“‘Ku bukiikaddyo, ensalo yammwe erizingiramu Eddungu lya Zini n’ekibira ku mabbali ga Edomu. Ku luuyi lw’ebuvanjuba, ensalo yammwe ey’oku bukiikaddyo eritandikira ku Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo w’ekoma ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba,
4 and the boundary shall go round for you from the south towards the cliffs of Akrabbim, then cross over towards Zin, and the extension thereof shall be from the south to Kadesh-barnea, then shall it reach out to Hazar-addar, and cross over towards Azmon;
n’eyambukira ku Kkubo lya Akulabbimu, n’eraga ku Zini n’ekoma ku bukiikaddyo obwa Kadesubanea. Eriraga e Kazala Dali n’etuuka e Yazimoni,
5 then shall the boundary turn round from Azmon towards the ravine of Egypt, —and the extension thereof shall be towards the sea.
awo w’eriwetera n’egenda ku mugga Wadi ogw’e Misiri n’ekoma ku Nnyanja Ennene.
6 And, for a west boundary, —ye shall have the great sea, even a boundary, this, shall serve you as west boundary.
Ku ludda olw’ebugwanjuba, olubalama lw’Ennyanja Ennene lwe lulibeera ensalo yammwe. Eyo y’eriba ensalo yammwe ey’ebugwanjuba.
7 And, this, shall serve you as a north boundary, —From the great sea, ye shall draw a line for you to Mount Hor:
Ku ludda olw’obukiikakkono, ensalo yammwe egenda kuva ku Nnyanja Ennene erage ku Lusozi Koola;
8 From Mount Hor, ye shall draw a line to the entering in of Hamath, —and the extension of the boundary shall be towards Zedad:
eve e Koola erage w’oyingirira Kamasi. Ensalo olwo eriraga e Zedada,
9 then shall the boundary reach out towards Ziphron, and the extension thereof, be to Hazar-enan. This, shall serve you as a north, boundary.
ne yeeyongerayo okutuuka e Zifuloni, n’ekoma mu Kazalenooni. Eyo y’eriba ensalo yammwe ey’oku bukiikakkono.
10 Then shall ye draw for yourselves a line, for an east boundary, —from Hazar-enan towards Shepham;
Ensalo yammwe ey’ebuvanjuba erigoberera olunyiriri oluva e Kazalenooni okutuuka e Sefamu.
11 and the boundary shall go down from Shepham towards Riblah, on the east of Ain—then shall the boundary go down and strike on the side of the Sea of Chinnereth, eastward:
Ensalo n’eserengeta okuva e Sefamu okutuuka e Libula ku ludda olw’ebuvanjuba bwa Yaini, n’ebalama amabbali g’ensozi ku ludda olw’ebuvanjuba bw’Ennyanja y’e Kinneresi, y’ey’e Ggaliraaya.
12 then shall the boundary go down towards the Jordan, and the extension thereof be to the salt sea. This shall be your land by the boundaries thereof round about.
Olwo ensalo n’egendera ku mugga Yoludaani n’ekoma ku Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo. “‘Eyo y’eribeera ensi yammwe, n’ezo nga ze nsalo zaayo ku buli luuyi.’”
13 And Moses commanded the sons of Israel saying, —This, is the land, which ye shall inherit by lot, which Yahweh had commanded to be given to the nine tribes and the half tribe.
Awo Musa n’alagira abaana ba Isirayiri nti, “Ensi eyo muligibawa okubeera obutaka bwabwe obw’enkalakkalira nga mukuba akalulu. Mukama alagidde ensi eyo egabanibwe ebika omwenda n’ekitundu,
14 For the tribe of the sons of the Reubenites by their ancestral house, and the tribe of the sons of Gad, by their ancestral house, have received, and, the half tribe of Manasseh have received, their inheritance:
kubanga ab’empya z’ekika kya Gaadi n’ekya Lewubeeni, n’ab’empya z’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase, baamala okugabana obutaka bwabwe.
15 the two tribes, and the half tribe, have received their inheritance—on this side Jordan near Jericho, eastwards, towards sunrise.
Ebika ebyo ebibiri n’ekitundu byamala okugabana obutaka bwabyo ku ludda olw’ebuvanjuba olw’Omugga Yoludaani ogwa Yeriko okutunuulira enjuba gy’eva.”
16 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
17 These, are the names of the men who shall receive for you the land, as an inheritance, Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, son of Nun.
“Gano ge mannya g’abasajja abalibagabanyizaamu ensi eyo okubeera obutaka bwammwe: Eriyazaali kabona ne Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni.
18 Also, one prince from each tribe, shall ye take to receive the land, as an inheritance.
Era ojja kulonda mu buli kika omukulembeze omu okuyamba mu kugabana ensi.
19 These, therefore, are the names of the men, —For the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
“Gano ge mannya gaabwe: “Kalebu mutabani wa Yefune ng’ava mu kika kya Yuda.
20 And, for the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud:
Semweri mutabani wa Ammikudi ng’ava mu kika kya Simyoni.
21 For the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;
Eridaadi mutabani wa Kisuloni ng’ava mu kika kya Benyamini.
22 And, for the tribe of the sons of Dan, a prince—Bukki, son of Jogli:
Buki mutabani wa Yoguli ng’ava mu kika kya Ddaani.
23 For the sons of Joseph, For the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, a prince, —Hanniel son of Ephod;
Kanieri mutabani wa Efodi ng’ava mu kika kya Manase mutabani wa Yusufu.
24 And, for the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, a prince, —Kemuel, son of Shiphtan;
Kemueri mutabani wa Sifutani ng’ava mu kika kya Efulayimu mutabani wa Yusufu.
25 And, for the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, a prince, —Elizaphan, son of Parnach;
Erizafani mutabani wa Palunaki nga ye mukulembeze okuva mu kika kya Zebbulooni.
26 And, for the tribe of the sons of Issachar, a prince, —Paltiel son of Azzan;
Palutiyeri mutabani wa Azani nga ye mukulembeze okuva mu kika kya Isakaali,
27 And, for the tribe of the sons of Asher, a prince, —Ahihud son of Shelomi:
ne Akikuda mutabani wa Seromi nga ye mukulembeze okuva mu kika kya Aseri,
28 And, for the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, a prince, —Pedahel, son of Ammihud.
ne Pedakeri mutabani wa Ammikudi nga ye mukulembeze okuva mu kika kya Nafutaali.”
29 These, are they whom Yahweh hath commanded to receive for the sons of Israel their inheritance, in the land of Canaan.
Abo be basajja Mukama be yalagira okugabanyaamu ensi ya Kanani okubeera obutaka bw’abaana ba Isirayiri.
