Numbers 3
1 And these [are] births of Aaron and Moses, in the day of Jehovah's speaking with Moses in mount Sinai.
Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro wa njiaro cia Harũni na Musa hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jehova aaririe na Musa Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Sinai.
2 And these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron: the first-born Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar;
Marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Harũni maarĩ Nadabu ũrĩa warĩ irigithathi, na Abihu, na Eleazaru, na Ithamaru.
3 these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed priests, whose hand he hath consecrated for acting as priest.
Macio nĩmo marĩĩtwa ma ariũ a Harũni, nao maarĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai aitĩrĩrie maguta, arĩa maamũrĩtwo matungatage marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
4 And Nadab dieth — Abihu also — before Jehovah, in their bringing near strange fire before Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai, and sons they had not; and Eleazar — Ithamar also — acteth as priest in the presence of Aaron their father.
Na rĩrĩ, Nadabu na Abihu nĩmakuire marĩ mbere ya Jehova rĩrĩa maarutaga igongona na mwaki ũtarĩ mwĩtĩkĩrie mbere yake Werũ-inĩ wa Sinai. Matiarĩ na ciana cia aanake; nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Eleazaru na Ithamaru nĩo maatungataga marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe ithe wao Harũni aarĩ muoyo.
5 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
6 'Bring near the tribe of Levi, and thou hast caused it to stand before Aaron the priest, and they have served him,
“Rehe andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Lawi ũmaneane kũrĩ Harũni mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩguo mamũteithagie.
7 and kept his charge, and the charge of all the company before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle;
Marĩĩrutaga wĩra wa kũmũtungatĩra, na matungatagĩre kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩothe hau Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo na ũndũ wa kũruta wĩra wa hema ĩyo.
8 and they have kept all the vessels of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the sons of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle;
Nao marĩmenyagĩrĩra indo ciothe cia Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, mahingagie maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire nĩ gwĩkwo nĩ andũ a Isiraeli na ũndũ wa kũruta wĩra wa hema ĩyo.
9 and thou hast given the Levites to Aaron and to his sons; they are surely given to him out of the sons of Israel.
Neana Alawii acio kũrĩ Harũni na ariũ ake; nĩo andũ a Isiraeli arĩa mekũneanwo kũrĩ we biũ.
10 'And Aaron and his sons thou dost appoint, and they have kept their priesthood, and the stranger who cometh near is put to death.'
Amũra Harũni na ariũ ake matungatage marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai; mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe ũrĩa ũrĩkuhagĩrĩria harĩa haamũre no nginya ooragwo.”
11 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
12 'And I, lo, I have taken the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel instead of every first-born opening a womb among the sons of Israel, and the Levites have been Mine;
“Niĩ nĩ niĩ thuurĩte Alawii kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli ithenya rĩa marigithathi ma arũme arĩa marigithathĩtwo nĩ andũ-a-nja othe a Isiraeli. Alawii nĩ akwa,
13 for Mine [is] every first-born, in the day of My smiting every first-born in the land of Egypt I have sanctified to Myself every first-born in Israel, from man unto beast; Mine they are; I [am] Jehovah.'
nĩgũkorwo marigithathi mothe nĩ makwa. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndooragire marigithathi mothe ma Misiri, noguo ndeyamũrĩire marigithathi mothe ma Isiraeli, marĩ ma mũndũ kana ma nyamũ. Macio nĩ makwa kĩũmbe. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
14 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa kũu Werũ-inĩ wa Sinai atĩrĩ,
15 'Number the sons of Levi by the house of their fathers, by their families; every male from a son of a month and upward thou dost number them.'
“Tara Alawii kũringana na nyũmba ciao na mbarĩ ciao. Tara arũme othe arĩa makinyĩtie mweri ũmwe na makĩria.”
16 And Moses numbereth them according to the command of Jehovah, as he hath been commanded.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Musa akĩmatara o ta ũrĩa aathĩtwo nĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova.

40 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Number every first-born male of the sons of Israel from a son of a month and upward, and take up the number of their names;
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Tara marigithathi ma arũme othe ma andũ a Isiraeli arĩa makinyĩtie mweri ũmwe na makĩria, na wandĩke marĩĩtwa mao.
41 and thou hast taken the Levites for Me (I [am] Jehovah), instead of every first-born among the sons of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of every firstling among the cattle of the sons of Israel.'
Nyamũrĩra Alawii handũ ha marigithathi mothe ma andũ a Isiraeli; o naguo ũhiũ wa Alawii ũwaamũre handũ ha marigithathi mothe ma mahiũ ma andũ a Isiraeli. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
42 And Moses numbereth, as Jehovah hath commanded him, all the first-born among the sons of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa agĩtara marigithathi mothe ma andũ a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte.
43 And all the first-born — male — by the number of names, from a son of a month and upward, of their numbered ones, are two and twenty thousand two hundred and seventy and three.
Marigithathi mothe ma arũme arĩa maakinyĩtie mweri ũmwe na makĩria, maandĩkwo na marĩĩtwa mao, maarĩ andũ 22,273.
44 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
45 'Take the Levites instead of every first-born among the sons of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites have been Mine; I [am] Jehovah.
“Amũra Alawii handũ ha marigithathi mothe ma andũ a Isiraeli, naguo ũhiũ wa Alawii ũwaamũre handũ ha mahiũ mao. Alawii megũtuĩka akwa. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
46 'And [from] those ransomed of the two hundred and seventy and three (who are more than the Levites) of the first-born of the sons of Israel,
Gũkũũra marigithathi macio 273 ma andũ a Isiraeli, acio makĩrĩte mũigana wa Alawii-rĩ,
47 thou hast even taken five shekels a-piece by the poll — by the shekel of the sanctuary thou takest; twenty gerahs the shekel [is];
oya cekeri ithano irũgamĩrĩre o mũndũ, kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, ĩrĩa ũritũ wayo ũrĩ gera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ.
48 and thou hast given the money to Aaron, and to his sons, whereby those over and above are ransomed.'
Mbeeca icio cia gũkũũra andũ a Isiraeli acio makĩrĩte-rĩ, cinengere Harũni na ariũ ake.”
49 And Moses taketh the ransom money from those over and above those ransomed by the Levites;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩũngania mbeeca cia gũkũũra andũ acio maakĩrĩte mũigana wa andũ arĩa maakũũrĩtwo nĩ Alawii.
50 from the first-born of the sons of Israel he hath taken the money, a thousand and three hundred and sixty and five — by the shekel of the sanctuary;
Kuuma kũrĩ marigithathi ma andũ a Isiraeli, akĩũngania betha ya ũritũ wa cekeri 1,365 kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre.
51 and Moses giveth the money of those ransomed to Aaron, and to his sons, according to the command of Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
Musa akĩnengera Harũni na ariũ ake mbeeca icio ciakũũrĩte andũ, o ta ũrĩa aathĩtwo nĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova.
