< Numbers 7 >
1 When Moses/I had finished setting up the Sacred Tent, he/I dedicated [MTY] it to Yahweh. He/I also dedicated the things that are inside the tent, and the altar [for burning sacrifices], and all the things that would be used at the altar.
Na mokolo oyo Moyize asilisaki kotonga Mongombo, asopelaki yango mafuta mpo na kobulisa yango elongo na bisalelo na yango. Asalaki mpe bongo mpo na etumbelo elongo na bisalelo na yango, asopelaki yango mafuta mpo na kobulisa yango.
2 Then the leaders of the [twelve] Israeli tribes, the same men who had [helped Aaron and Moses/me to] count the men [who could fight in battles],
Bongo bakambi ya Isalaele, bakonzi ya mabota, elingi koloba bakonzi ya bikolo oyo bakambaki mosala ya kotanga motango ya bato,
3 came to the tent, bringing gifts to Yahweh. They brought six sturdy/large carts and twelve oxen, one ox from each of the leaders and a cart from each of the two leaders.
bamemaki makabo na bango liboso ya Yawe: bashario motoba mpe bangombe zomi na mibale. Shario moko mpo na bakambi mibale, mpe ngombe moko mpo na mokonzi moko na moko; bamemaki yango liboso ya Mongombo.
4 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
5 “Accept these gifts, in order that the descendants of Levi can use them for carrying the sacred items that are here at the Sacred Tent.”
« Ndima kozwa makabo oyo bayei na yango; okosala na yango mosala ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. Okopesa yango epai ya Balevi kolanda mokumba ya moko na moko. »
6 So Moses/I took the carts and oxen and gave them to the descendants of Levi.
Moyize andimaki kozwa bashar mpe bangombe mpe apesaki yango epai ya Balevi.
7 He/I gave two carts and four oxen to the descendants of Gershon for their work,
Apesaki bashar mibale mpe bangombe minei epai ya bana mibali ya Gerishoni kolanda bosenga ya mosala na bango.
8 and he/I gave four carts and eight oxen to the descendants of Merari for their work. Aaron’s son Ithamar was the supervisor of all their work.
Apesaki bashar minei mpe bangombe mwambe epai ya bana mibali ya Merari kolanda bosenga ya mosala na bango na bokambami ya Itamari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron.
9 But he/I did not give any carts or oxen to the descendants of Kohath, because they took care of the sacred items that were to be carried on their shoulders, [not on carts].
Apesaki eloko te epai ya bana mibali ya Keati, pamba te bazalaki na mokumba ya komema na mapeka na bango biloko ya bule.
10 On the day that the altar was dedicated [MTY], the [twelve] leaders brought other gifts to be dedicated and put them in front of the altar.
Bakambi bamemaki makabo na bango mpo na libulisi ya etumbelo, na mokolo oyo basopelaki yango mafuta; bamemaki makabo yango liboso ya etumbelo.
11 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Each of the next twelve days one leader should bring his gifts for the dedication of the altar.”
Bongo Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Tika ete mokolo na mokolo, mokambi moko na moko amema likabo na ye mpo na libulisi ya etumbelo! »
12 These are the gifts that each of the leaders brought: —a silver dish that weighed (more than three pounds/1.5 kg.), and a silver bowl that weighed (almost two pounds/800 grams), both of which were full of good flour and mixed with [olive] oil to be offerings of grain; they both were weighed using the standard scales; —a small gold dish that weighed (four ounces/14 grams), filled with incense; —a young bull, a [full-grown] ram, and a one-year-old ram, to be sacrifices to be completely burned on the altar; —a goat to be sacrificed to [enable me to forgive the people] the sins they have committed; —and two bulls, five full-grown rams, five male goats, and five rams that were one-year-old, to be sacrifices to maintain the people’s fellowship with Yahweh. This was the order in which the leaders brought their gifts: on the first day, Nahshon, son of Amminadab from the tribe of Judah brought his gifts; on the next/second day, Nethanel, son of Zuar, from the tribe of Issachar; on the next/third day, Eliab, son of Helon, from the tribe of Zebulun; on the next/fourth day, Elizur, son of Shedeur, from the tribe of Reuben; on the next/fifth day, Shelumiel, son of Jurishhaddai, from the tribe of Simeon; on the next/sixth day, Eliasaph, son of Deuel, from the tribe of Gad; on the next/seventh day, Elishama, son of Ammihud, from the tribe of Ephraim; on the next/eighth day, Gamaliel, son of Pedahzur, from the tribe of Manasseh; on the next/ninth day, Abidan, son of Gideoni, from the tribe of Benjamin; on the next/tenth day, Ahiezer, son of Ammishaddai, from the tribe of Dan; on the next/eleventh day, Pagiel, son of Acran, from the tribe of Asher; on the next/twelfth day, Ahira, son of Enam, from the tribe of Naphtali.
