Numbers 26
1 After the plague [ended], Yahweh said to Eleazar and Moses/me,
Ɔyaredɔm no akyi no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron babarima Eleasa sɛ,
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.”
“Monkan Israelfoɔ mmarima a wɔadi mfeɛ aduonu ne deɛ ɛboro saa nyinaa na monhwɛ dodoɔ a wɔbɛtumi akɔ ɔsa wɔ abusua biara mu.”
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:
Saa ɛberɛ no, na Israelman no nyinaa abɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Moab tata so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan ho a na wɔne Yeriko di nhwɛanimu. Enti Mose ne ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa kaa nhyehyɛeɛ a ɛfa nnipakan no ho kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ ntuanofoɔ no sɛ,
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].
“Monkan mmarima a wɔwɔ Israel a wɔadi mfeɛ aduonu ne deɛ ɛboro saa sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.” Sɛdeɛ nnipakan no a ɛfa Israel mma a wɔfiri Misraim baeɛ no ano kɔsiiɛ nie.
5 [They counted] 43,730 men from the tribe of Reuben, Jacob’s oldest son. They were in clans descended from Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Yeinom ne mmusua a wɔyɛ Yakob babarima panin Ruben asefoɔ: Hanokfoɔ abusua, wɔde too wɔn tete agya Hanok; Palufoɔ abusua, wɔde too a wɔn tete agya Palu;

8 Pallu’s son was Eliab
Na Palu yɛ Eliab aseni,
9 and his grandsons were Nemuel, Dathan and Abiram. Dathan and Abiram were the leaders who joined with Korah to conspire against Aaron and Moses/me and rebelled against Yahweh.
na Nemuel na ɔwoo Eliab, Datan ne Abiram. Saa Datan ne Abiram yi ara na wɔyɛ nnipa no ntuanofoɔ a wɔne Kora yɛɛ adwene tiaa Mose ne Aaron, de buu Awurade animtia.
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.
Na asase mu bue menee wɔn ne Kora. Egya firi Awurade nkyɛn bɛsɛee wɔn akyidifoɔ ahanu aduonum. Yei yɛɛ kɔkɔbɔ maa Israelman nyinaa.
11 But the descendants of Korah did not die [on that day].
Nanso, Kora mmammarima deɛ, wɔanwuwu da no.

Hepher’s son Zelophehad did not have any sons, but he had five daughters—Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

51 The total of the Israeli men whom the leaders counted was 601,730.
Enti, nnipa dodoɔ a wɔkan wɔn no ano si mpem ahansia ne baako ahanson aduasa.
52 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
53 “Divide Canaan land among the tribes. Distribute the land according the number of people in each tribe that are on your lists.
“Kyekyɛ asase no ma mmusua no sɛdeɛ wɔn dodoɔ teɛ.
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.”
Ma abusua a ɛso no asase kɛseɛ na abusua a ɛsua no asase ketewa.
Hwɛ sɛ wɔnam ntontobɔ so bɛkyekyɛ asase no. Deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ekuo biara nya no bɛgyina nʼagyanom abusuakuo edin dodoɔ so.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ ntonto wɔ agyapadeɛ no kyekyɛ so wɔ akuo akɛseɛ ne nketewa no mu.”
57 The leaders also counted the male descendants of Levi. They were in clans descended from Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
Nnipakan no, na Lewifoɔ mmusua no mu nnipa nie: Wɔde Gersonfoɔ too wɔn tete agya Gerson. Wɔde Kohatfoɔ too wɔn tete agya Kohat. Wɔde Merarifoɔ too wɔn tete agya Merari.
58 These also included people from the clans of Libni, Hebron, Mahli, Mushi, and Korah. All of them were descendants of Levi. Kohath was the ancestor of Amram,
Yeinom nso yɛ Lewifoɔ mmusua: Libnifoɔ, Hebronfoɔ, Mahlifoɔ, Musifoɔ ne Korafoɔ. Kohat yɛ Amram tete agya;
59 whose wife was Jochebed. She also was a descendant of Levi, but she was born in Egypt. She and Amram had two sons, Aaron and Moses/me, and their/our [older] sister Miriam.
Ɛberɛ a Lewi wɔ Misraim no, wɔwoo ɔbabaa a ne din de Yokebed. Kehat babarima Amram waree no. Wɔn na wɔwoo Aaron, Mose ne Miriam.
60 Aaron’s sons were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Aaron woo Nadab, Abihu, Eleasa ne Itamar.
61 But Nadab and Abihu died when they burned [incense for a sacrifice] to Yahweh in a way that disobeyed what Yahweh had commanded.
Nanso, ɛberɛ a Nadab ne Abihu de ogya a ɛnyɛ kronkron brɛɛ Awurade no, wɔwuwuiɛ.
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.
Nnipakan no mu na Lewifoɔ nyinaa dodoɔ yɛ mpem aduonu mmiɛnsa. Wɔkan mmarima a wɔadi firi bosome kɔsi mpanimfoɔ so. Nanso, wɔammu Lewifoɔ no ano anka Israel nnipakan no ho, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔrekyɛ nsase no ama mmusuakuo no, wɔamma Lewifoɔ no bi.
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].
Enti, sɛdeɛ Mose ne ɔsɔfoɔ Eleasa fa kyerɛɛ nnipa no ano wɔ Moab bepɔ a ɛbɛn Asubɔnten Yordan na ɛne Yeriko di nhwɛanimu no ne no.
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,
Saa nnipa yi nyinaa, wɔn mu baako mpo nni hɔ a nnipakan a ɛdi ɛkan no, wɔkan no wɔ Sinai ɛserɛ so hɔ,
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.
ɛfiri sɛ, na mfeɛ aduanan atwam enti na wɔn a wɔkan wɔn kane no nyinaa awuwu sɛdeɛ Awurade kaeɛ sɛ. “Wɔbɛwuwu wɔ ɛserɛ so” no. Wɔn a ɛkaa wɔn ara ne Yefune ba Kaleb ne Nun babarima Yosua.
