Numbers 26
1 After the plague [ended], Yahweh said to Eleazar and Moses/me,
Utatha mliri Yehova anati kwa Mose ndi Eliezara mwana wa Aaroni,
2 “Count all the people of Israel [again]. Write down the names of all the men who are at least 20 years old who are able to fight [in battles], along with their family names.”
“Werengani Aisraeli onse mwa mabanja awo, onse a zaka makumi awiri kapena kuposera pamenepo omwe angathe kugwira ntchito ya usilikali mʼgulu lankhondo la Israeli.”
3 So while the Israelis were on the plains where the Moab people-group lived, Eleazar and Moses/I told this to the Israeli leaders:
Kotero mu zigwa za Mowabu pafupi ndi mtsinje wa Yorodani ku Yeriko, Mose ndi wansembe Eliezara anayankhula nawo kuti,
4 “Write down the names of all the Israeli men who are at least 20 years old, as Yahweh has commanded us.” [So they did that], and this is a record of all the descendants of Jacob who came out of Egypt [who were still alive].
“Werengani amuna a zaka makumi awiri kapena kuposera pamenepo, monga momwe Yehova walamulira Mose.” Aisraeli omwe anachokera ku Igupto ndi awa:

10 But the earth opened up and swallowed them and Korah. Yahweh also sent a fire that burned up 250 men who supported those three men. That was a warning [to all the Israeli people] that they should respect and obey the leaders whom Yahweh had appointed.
Nthaka inangʼambika ndi kuwameza pamodzi ndi Kora, kotero kuti gulu lawo linafa pamene moto unapsereza anthu 250 aja, nasanduka chenjezo.

Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
53 “Divide Canaan land among the tribes. Distribute the land according the number of people in each tribe that are on your lists.
“Uwagawire dziko anthu awa kuti likhale cholowa chawo molingana ndi chiwerengero cha mayina awo.
54 Decide by (casting lots/throwing stones which are marked) to determine which group will get which area, but give the largest areas to the groups with the most people.”
Gulu lalikulu ulipatse cholowa chachikulu, ndipo lochepa cholowa chocheperapo. Gulu lililonse lilandire cholowa chake molingana ndi chiwerengero cha amene anawerengedwa.
Dzikolo uligawe pochita maere. Alandire cholowa chawocho potsata mayina a mafuko a makolo awo.

Koma Nadabu ndi Abihu anafa pamene anapereka nsembe pamaso pa Yehova ndi moto wachilendo).
62 The leaders counted 23,000 men from the descendants of Levi who were at least one month old. But these men were not counted when the rest of the Israeli people [were counted], because they were not given any land.

63 Those were the men whom Eleazar and Moses/I said should be counted. They counted the Israeli people on the plains where the Moab people-group lived, on the [east] side of the Jordan River, across from Jericho [city].
Awa ndi amene anawerengedwa ndi Mose ndi Eliezara wansembe pamene ankawerenga Aisraeli pa zigwa za ku Mowabu mʼmbali mwa Yorodani ku Yeriko.
64 None of the men whom they counted were on the lists that were made by Aaron and Moses/me when the Israelis were in the Sinai Desert,
Mwa anthu amenewa panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene anali mʼgulu la Aisraeli omwe Mose ndi wansembe Aaroni anawawerenga mʼchipululu cha Sinai;
65 because Yahweh had said about them, “They will all die in this desert,” [and that is what happened]. The only ones who were still alive were Jephunneh’s son Caleb and Nun’s son Joshua.
Chifukwa Yehova anali atawuza Aisraeliwo kuti adzafera ndithu mʼchipululu, ndipo palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene anatsala kupatula Kalebe mwana wa Yefune ndi Yoswa mwana wa Nuni.
