1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses in the desert of Sinai in the tent of meeting, —on the first of the second month in the second year by their coming forth out of the land of Egypt saying:
Yehova anayankhula ndi Mose mʼchipululu cha Sinai, mu tenti ya msonkhano, pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachiwiri, mʼchaka chachiwiri atatuluka mu Igupto, kuti,
2 Reckon ye up the sum of all the assembly of the sons of Israel, by their families by their ancestral houses, —in the counting of names, every male, by their polls;

4 and with you, shall be one man for each tribe, —each man, head of his ancestral house, shall be.
Munthu mmodzi wochokera ku fuko lililonse yemwe ndi mtsogoleri wa banja lake, ndiye akuthandizeni pa ntchitoyi.

47 But the Levites by the tribe of their fathers were not numbered in their midst.
Koma mabanja a fuko la Levi okha sanawawerenge pamodzi ndi ena.
48 For Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
Pakuti Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
49 Only the tribe of Levi, shalt thou not number, nor the sum of them, shalt thou reckon up, in the midst of the sons of Israel.
“Usawerenge fuko la Levi kapena kuliphatikiza mʼkawundula wa Aisraeli.
50 But do, thou thyself, put the Levites in charge over the habitation of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof and over all that pertaineth thereto, they, shall bear the habitation, and all the furniture thereof, and they, shall attend thereupon; and, round about the habitation, shall they encamp.
Koma uyike Aleviwo kuti aziyangʼanira tenti yanga yopatulika, zipangizo zake ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo. Azinyamula tentiyo pamodzi ndi zipangizo zake zonse; azisamalira ndi kumanga misasa mozungulira tentiyo.
51 And, when the habitation is to set forward, the Levites shall take it down, and when the habitation is to be pitched, the Levites, shall set it up, but the stranger that draweth near, shall be put to death.
Pamene akusamutsa tentiyo, Alevi ndiwo aziyitsitsa, akafuna kuyimanganso, Alevi ndiwo aziyimiritsa. Wina aliyense amene adzayandikire tentiyo adzaphedwa.
52 So then the sons of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man, near his own camp, and, every man, near his own standard, by their hosts;
Aisraeli azimanga matenti awo mʼmagulumagulu, munthu aliyense ku gulu lake pansi pa mbendera yake.
53 but the Levites, shall pitch their tents round about the habitation of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the assembly of the sons of Israel, —so shall the Levites keep the watch of the habitation of the testimony.
Alevi nawonso, azimanga matenti awo mozungulira tenti yopatulika kuti chilango chisagwere Aisraeli onse. Ndipo Alevi aziyangʼanira ndi kusamalira tenti yopatulikayo.”
54 Thus did the sons of Israel, —according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did they.
Choncho Aisraeli anachita monga Yehova analamulira Mose.
