Numbers 18
1 And he said Yahweh to Aaron you and sons your and [the] house of ancestor your with you you will bear [the] guilt of the sanctuary and you and sons your with you you will bear [the] guilt of priesthood your.
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Alooni nti, “Ggwe, ne batabani bo, n’ab’omu kika kyo bonna, mmwe munaavunaanyizibwanga olw’emisango eginazzibwanga ku watukuvu; era ggwe ne batabani bo mwekka mmwe muneetikkanga obuvunaanyizibwa ku misango eginazzibwanga ku bwakabona.
2 And also brothers your [the] tribe of Levi [the] tribe of ancestor your bring near with you so they may join themselves to you so they may serve you and you and sons your with you [will be] before [the] tent of the testimony.
Onooleetanga Abaleevi banno ab’omu kika kyo eky’obujjajja ne babeegattako, ggwe ne batabani bo, okubayambanga bwe munaabanga muweereza mu Weema ya Mukama ey’Endagaano.
3 And they will keep service your and [the] service of all the tent only to [the] equipment of the holy place and to the altar not they will draw near and not they will die both they as well as you.
Banaaweererezanga wansi wo nga bakola emirimu gyonna egy’omu Weema ya Mukama; naye beekuumenga balemenga okusemberera ekyoto wadde eby’omu watukuvu byonna; bwe balikikola, bo naawe mugenda kufa.
4 And they will join themselves to you and they will keep [the] duty of [the] tent of meeting to all [the] service of the tent and a stranger not he will draw near to you.
Bagenda kukwegattako, balabirirenga Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, nga bakola emirimu gyonna egy’omu Weema, era tewaabenga mugwira n’omu anaasemberanga we muli.
5 And you will keep [the] service of the holy place and [the] service of the altar and not it will be again wrath towards [the] people of Israel.
“Mmwe munaabanga n’obuvunaanyizibwa obw’emirimu gyonna egy’awatukuvu n’egy’Ekyoto, olwo obusungu buleme kuddamu kubuubuukiranga ku baana ba Isirayiri.
6 And I here! I have taken brothers your the Levites from among [the] people of Israel to you a gift assigned to Yahweh to serve [the] service of [the] tent of meeting.
Kale weeteegereze: nziridde ab’omu lulyo lwo olw’Abaleevi nga mbalonze mu baana ba Isirayiri, ne mbakukwasa ng’ekirabo ekiweereddwayo eri Mukama Katonda okukolanga emirimu egy’omu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
7 And you and sons your with you you will keep priesthood your to every matter of the altar and to from inside to the curtain and you will serve a service of a gift I give priesthood your and the stranger approaching he will be put to death.
Naye ggwe ne batabani bo mwekka mmwe munaakolanga emirimu gyonna egy’obwakabona bwammwe egikwata ku kyoto n’egy’omunda w’eggigi. Obuweereza obw’Obwakabona mbubawadde ng’ekirabo. Omuntu yenna omulala anaasemberanga okumpi n’awatukuvu, anaafanga.”
8 And he spoke Yahweh to Aaron and I here! I give to you [the] charge of contributions my to all [the] holy gifts of [the] people of Israel to you I give them to a portion and to sons your to a prescribed portion of perpetuity.
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Alooni nti, “Laba, Nze kennyini nkukwasizza ebiweebwayo byonna ebireetebwa gye ndi; ebiweebwayo byonna ebitukuvu abaana ba Isirayiri bye banandeeteranga mbikuwadde ggwe ne batabani bo nga gwe mugabo gwammwe ogw’olubeerera.
9 This it will belong to you from [the] holy thing of the holy things from the fire every offering their to every grain offering their and to every sin offering their and to every guilt offering their which they will give back to me [will be] a holy thing of holy things for you it and for sons your.
Ku biweebwayo byonna ebitukuvu ennyo ebitayokeddwa mu muliro kunaabangako ebibyo. Omugabo gwo ne batabani bo gunaavanga ku birabo ebitukuvu ennyo abaana ba Isirayiri bye banandeeteranga: ebiweebwayo eby’emmere y’empeke oba ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi, oba ebiweebwayo olw’omusango.
10 [the] holy thing of The holy things you will eat it every male he will eat it a holy thing it will be for you.
Omugabo ogwo onooguliiranga mu kifo ekitukuvu ennyo, era buli musajja anaagulyangako. Osaana okitegeere ng’ebyo bitukuvu nnyo.
11 And this [will belong] to you [the] contribution of gift their to all [the] wave-offerings of [the] people of Israel to you I give them and to sons your and to daughters your with you to a prescribed portion of perpetuity every clean [person] among household your he will eat it.
“Bino nabyo binaabanga bibyo: ku birabo bye banandeeteranga, n’ebiweebwayo ebiwuubibwawuubibwa eby’abaana ba Isirayiri. Ebyo mbikuwadde ne batabani bo ne bawala bo okuba omugabo gwo ogw’olubeerera. Buli muntu yenna ow’omu maka go omulongoofu anaalyangako.
12 All [the] best of [the] fresh oil and all [the] best of [the] new wine and grain first [fruit] their which they will give to Yahweh to you I give them.
“Nkuwadde ku mafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni agasinga obulungi ne ku wayini omusu, ne ku mmere y’empeke embereberye bye baleetera Mukama eby’amakungula gaabwe.
13 [the] first-fruits of All that [is] in land their which they will bring to Yahweh to you it will belong every clean [person] among household your he will eat it.
Ebibala ebinaasookanga okwengera mu nnimiro zaabwe, bye banaaleeteranga Mukama Katonda, binaabanga bibyo. Buli muntu yenna ow’omu maka go omulongoofu anaalyangako.
14 Every devoted thing in Israel to you it will belong.
“Buli kintu kyonna mu Isirayiri ekiweereddwayo ddala ne kiwongebwa eri Mukama kinaabanga kikyo.
15 Every firstborn of a womb of all flesh which they will bring near to Yahweh among humankind and among animal[s] it will belong to you only - certainly you will redeem [the] firstborn of humankind and [the] firstborn of animal[s] unclean you will redeem.
Buli ekinaggulangawo enda y’omuntu oba ey’ekisolo, nga kyakuwaayo eri Mukama Katonda, kinaabanga kikyo. Naye omwana omubereberye ow’omuntu onoomununulanga, era n’embereberye ez’ensolo ezitali nnongoofu nazo onoozinunulanga.
16 And redemption price its from a son of a month you will redeem [it] by valuation your [will be] silver five shekels by [the] shekel of the holy place [is] twenty gerah[s] it.
Ebyo eby’okununula onoobinunulanga bimaze okuweza omwezi gumu ogw’obukulu. Onoobinunuliranga ku muwendo ogwagerekebwa ogwa gulaamu amakumi ataano mu ttaano, ng’ebipimo by’awatukuvu bwe biri.
17 Only [the] firstborn of a cow or [the] firstborn of a sheep or [the] firstborn of a goat not you will redeem [are] holy thing[s] they blood their you will sprinkle on the altar and fat their you will make smoke a fire offering to an odor of soothing to Yahweh.
“Naye embereberye ey’ente, oba embereberye ey’endiga oba ey’embuzi, ezo toozinunulenga, kubanga zo ntukuvu. Onoomansiranga omusaayi gwazo ku kyoto, n’oyokya amasavu gaazo mu muliro ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa ekivaamu akawoowo akasanyusa Mukama Katonda.
18 And meat their it will belong to you like [the] breast of the wave-offering and like [the] thigh of the right to you it will belong.
Ennyama yaazo eneebanga yiyo ng’ekiweebwayo ky’ekifuba ekiwuubibwawuubibwa n’ekisambi ekya ddyo bwe kiri ekikyo.
19 All - [the] contributions of the holy gifts which they will offer up [the] people of Israel to Yahweh I give to you and to sons your and to daughters your with you to a prescribed portion of perpetuity [is] a covenant of salt of perpetuity it before Yahweh to you and to offspring your with you.
Ebiweebwayo byonna ebitukuvu abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaaleeteranga Mukama, mbikuwadde, ggwe ne batabani bo, ne bawala bo, okubeeranga omugabo gwo ogw’olubeerera. Eneebeeranga endagaano ey’omunnyo eya Mukama wakati we naawe n’ezzadde lyo emirembe gyonna.”
20 And he said Yahweh to Aaron in land their not you will have an inheritance and a share not it will belong to you in midst of them I [am] share your and inheritance your in among [the] people of Israel.
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Alooni nti, “Toobenga na byabusika mu nsi yaabwe, so toobenga na mugabo gwonna mu bo; Nze mugabo gwo era Nze busika bwo mu baana ba Isirayiri.
21 And to [the] descendants of Levi here! I give every tithe in Israel for an inheritance in return for service their which they [are] serving [the] service of [the] tent of meeting.
“Ebitundu eby’ekkumi byonna abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaaleetanga, mbiwadde Abaleevi okubeeranga omugabo gwabwe nga ye mpeera yaabwe olw’omulimu gwe bakola nga baweereza mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
22 And not they will draw near again [the] people of Israel to [the] tent of meeting to bear sin to die.
Era okuva leero abaana ba Isirayiri tebaasembererenga Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, si kulwa nga bakolerayo ebibi, ne bafa.
23 And he will serve the Levite[s] he [the] service of [the] tent of meeting and they they will bear iniquity their a statute of perpetuity to generations your and in among [the] people of Israel not they will inherit an inheritance.
Abaleevi be banaakolanga emirimu egy’omu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, era be baneetikkanga obuvunaanyizibwa bwe banaakolerangayo ebibi. Lino linaabanga tteeka ery’enkalakkalira ne mu mirembe gyammwe gyonna egigenda okujja. Tebaafunenga byabusika mu baana ba Isirayiri.
24 For [the] tithe of [the] people of Israel which they will offer up to Yahweh a contribution I give to the Levites for an inheritance there-fore I have said of them in among [the] people of Israel not they will inherit an inheritance.
Kubanga ebitundu eby’ekkumi abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaaleetanga ng’ekiweebwayo eri Mukama, mbiwadde Abaleevi okubeera omugabo gwabwe. Noolwekyo tebaabenga na byabusika mu baana ba Isirayiri.”
25 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
26 And to the Levites you will speak and you will say to them if you will take from with [the] people of Israel the tithe which I give to you from with them inheritance your and you will offer up from it [the] contribution of Yahweh a tithe of the tithe.
“Yogera n’Abaleevi obagambe nti, ‘Bwe munaafunanga ebitundu eby’ekkumi, bye mbawadde ng’omugabo gwammwe, nga mubiggya ku baana ba Isirayiri, munaggyangako ekitundu eky’ekkumi ne mukireeta nga kye kiweebwayo kyammwe eri Mukama Katonda.
27 And it will be reckoned to you contribution your like the grain from the threshing floor and like the full produce from the wine-press.
Ekiweebwayo kyammwe kinaabalibwanga ng’emmere y’empeke ey’omu gguuliro oba ng’omubisi ogw’omu ssogolero.
28 Thus you will offer up also you contribution of Yahweh from all tithes your which you will take from with [the] people of Israel and you will give from it [the] contribution of Yahweh to Aaron the priest.
Mu ngeri eyo nammwe munaaleetanga ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda nga mukiggya ku bitundu eby’ekkumi bye munaafunanga ku baana ba Isirayiri. Ku bitundu ebyo eby’ekkumi kwe munaggyanga ekiweebwayo kya Mukama ne mukikwasa Alooni kabona.
29 From all gifts your you will offer up every contribution of Yahweh some of all best its sacred part of its from it.
Mu birabo ebyo byonna bye banaabawanga munaggyangako ekisingira ddala obulungi era ekitukuvu ennyo ne mukireeta nga kye kiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda.’
30 And you will say to them when offer up you best of its from it and it will be reckoned to the Levites like [the] produce of a threshing floor and like [the] produce of a wine-press.
“Abaleevi bagambe nti, ‘Bwe munaawangayo ebitundu ebisinga obulungi, binaababalirwangako ng’ebivudde mu gguuliro n’ebivudde mu ssogolero.
31 And you will eat it in any place you and household your for [is] wage[s] it of you in return for service your in [the] tent of meeting.
Mmwe n’ab’omu maka gammwe munaayinzanga okubiriira wonna we munaayagalanga, kubanga eneebeeranga mpeera yammwe olw’omulimu gwe munaakolanga mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
32 And not you will bear on it sin when offer up you best of its from it and [the] holy gifts of [the] people of Israel not you will profane and not you will die.
Bwe munaawangayo ebisingira ddala obulungi, tewaabengawo musango gwonna gwe munaabanga muzzizza; bwe mutyo ebiweebwayo ebitukuvu eby’abaana ba Isirayiri munaabanga temubivumisizza, muleme okufa.’”
