< 1 Chronicles 5 >

1 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel (for he was the firstborn, but because he defiled his father’s couch, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; and the genealogy is not to be listed according to the birthright.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni, mutabani omukulu owa Isirayiri, ye yali omubereberye, naye nayonoona obufumbo bwa kitaawe, obusika bwe ng’omuggulanda ne buweebwa batabani ba Yusufu mutabani wa Isirayiri, kyeyava tabalirwa mu byafaayo ng’omubereberye.
2 For Judah prevailed above his brothers, and from him came the prince; but the birthright was Joseph’s)—
Yuda yali w’amaanyi okusinga baganda be, era mu ye mwe mwava kabaka ow’eggwanga lya Isirayiri, wabula ebyobusika eby’obuggulanda byali bya mutabani wa Yusufu omukulu.
3 the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni, mutabani omukulu owa Isirayiri baali: Kanoki, ne Palu, ne Kezulooni ne Kalumi.
4 The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,
Ab’enda ya Yoweeri baali Semaaya mutabani we, ne Gogi muzzukulu we, ne Simeeyi muzzukulu we.
5 Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,
Mikka yali mutabani wa Simeeyi, ne Leyaya n’aba muzzukulu we, ne Baali n’aba muzzukulu we.
6 and Beerah his son, whom Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria carried away captive. He was prince of the Reubenites.
Mutabani wa Baali yali Beera, omukulu w’ekika ky’Abalewubeeni, Tirugazupiruneseri kabaka w’e Busuuli gwe yatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse.
7 His brothers by their families, when the genealogy of their generations was listed: the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,
Baganda be ng’enda zaabwe bwe zaali be bano: Yeyeri omukulu w’ekika, Zekkaliya,
8 and Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who lived in Aroer, even to Nebo and Baal Meon;
Bera mutabani wa Azozi, muzzukulu wa Sema, muzzukulu wa Yoweeri. Be baasenga mu Aloweri okutuuka e Nebo ne Baalu Myoni.
9 and he lived eastward even to the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates, because their livestock were multiplied in the land of Gilead.
Ate baasenga n’ebuvanjuba w’eddungu okutuukira ddala ku mugga Fulaati, kubanga amagana gaabwe gaali gaaze nnyo.
10 In the days of Saul, they made war with the Hagrites, who fell by their hand; and they lived in their tents throughout all the land east of Gilead.
Awo ku mirembe gya Sawulo ne balumba Abakaguli, era Abakaguli ne bagwa mu mikono gyabwe, era bali ne beegazaanyiza mu nsi y’Abakaguli okutuukira ddala ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olw’e Gireyaadi.
11 The sons of Gad lived beside them in the land of Bashan to Salecah:
Bazzukulu ba Gaadi baabeeranga okuliraana Basani okwolekera Saleka.
12 Joel the chief, Shapham the second, Janai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
Yoweeri ye yali omukulembeze, ne Safamu nga ye mumyuka we, ate ne wabaawo ne Yanayi ne Safati mu Basani.
13 Their brothers of their fathers’ houses: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber, seven.
Baganda baabwe mu nda z’abajjajjaabwe bwe baali Mikayiri, ne Mesullamu, ne Seeba, ne Yolayi, ne Yakani, ne Ziya, ne Eberi, bonna awamu musanvu.
14 These were the sons of Abihail, the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz;
Bano be baali ab’omu nnyumba ya Abikayiri mutabani wa Kuuli, muzzukulu wa Yalowa, muzzukulu wa Gireyaadi, muzzukulu wa Mikayiri, muzzukulu wa Yesisayi, muzzukulu wa Yakudo, ne muzzukulu wa Buzi.
15 Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of their fathers’ houses.
Aki mutabani wa Abudyeri, muzzukulu wa Guni, omukulu w’ennyumba yaabwe.
16 They lived in Gilead in Bashan and in its towns, and in all the pasture lands of Sharon as far as their borders.
Baabeeranga mu Gireyaadi, mu Basani, ne mu bibuga byayo ebirala ne mu malundiro g’e Saloni okutuuka ku nsalo yaayo.
17 All these were listed by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
Bino byonna byawandiikibwa mu bitabo ebyafaayo mu mirembe gya Yosamu kabaka wa Yuda, ne Yerobowaamu kabaka wa Isirayiri.
18 The sons of Reuben, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, able to shoot with bow, and skillful in war, were forty-four thousand seven hundred sixty that were able to go out to war.
Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase baalina abasajja emitwalo ena mu enkumi nnya mu lusanvu mu nkaaga, ab’amaanyi era nga bazira mu kukwata engabo, ekitala, ne mu kukozesa obusaale, era nga batendeke mu kulwana.
19 They made war with the Hagrites, with Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.
Ne balumba Abakaguli, ne Yetuli, ne Nafisi ne Nodabu.
20 They were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he answered them because they put their trust in him.
Olw’okwesiga n’okusaba Katonda okubabeera, baawangula Abakaguli mu lutalo.
21 They took away their livestock: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred fifty thousand, and of donkeys two thousand, and of men one hundred thousand.
Baanyaga amagana g’ente, n’eŋŋamira emitwalo etaano, n’endiga emitwalo abiri mu etaano n’endogoyi enkumi bbiri ate ne bawamba n’abasajja emitwalo kkumi.
22 For many fell slain, because the war was of God. They lived in their place until the captivity.
Era bangi ku bo battibwa kubanga olutalo lwali lwa Katonda. Ne basenga eyo okutuusa lwe baawaŋŋangusibwa.
23 The children of the half-tribe of Manasseh lived in the land. They increased from Bashan to Baal Hermon, Senir, and Mount Hermon.
Abantu ab’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase baali bangi nnyo, era baasenga mu nsi eya Basani okutuuka ku Baalukerumooni, ne Seniri, ne ku lusozi Kerumooni.
24 These were the heads of their fathers’ houses: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel—mighty men of valor, famous men, heads of their fathers’ houses.
Bano be baali abakulu b’ennyumba zaabwe: Eferi, ne Isi, ne Eryeri, ne Azulyeri, ne Yeremiya, ne Kodaviya, ne Yakudyeri, abasajja abazira era ab’amaanyi, abettutumu, nga gy’emitwe gy’ennyumba zaabwe.
25 They trespassed against the God of their fathers, and played the prostitute after the gods of the peoples of the land whom God destroyed before them.
Naye ne bakola ebibi ebimenya ebiragiro bya Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe, ne bagoberera bakatonda baamawanga ag’omu nsi eyo, Katonda be yazikiririza mu maaso gaabwe.
26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria, and he carried away the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, and brought them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and to the river of Gozan, to this day.
Katonda wa Isirayiri kyeyava akubiriza omwoyo gwa Puli kabaka w’e Bwasuli, eyayitibwanga Tirugazupiruneseri, n’alumba Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi n’ekitundu ekyali kisigaddewo ku Manase, n’abawamba era n’abatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse e Kala, n’e Kaboli, n’e Kaala ne ku mugga Gozani, gye bali n’okutuusa leero.
