1 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,

And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

2 “Ka yi magana da Isra’ilawa, ka kuma karɓi sanduna goma sha biyu daga wurinsu, sanda guda daga kowane shugaban gidan kakanninsu. Ka rubuta sunan kowa a sandansa.

Speake vnto the children of Israel, and take of euery one of them a rod, after the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the familie of their fathers, euen twelue rods: and thou shalt write euery mans name vpon his rod.

3 A kan sandan Lawi kuwa ka rubuta sunan Haruna, gama dole a sami sanda ɗaya saboda shugaban gidan kakanninsu.

And write Aarons name vpon the rod of Leui: for euery rodde shalbe for the head of the house of their fathers.

4 Ka ajiye su a Tentin Sujada, a gaba akwatin Alkawari, inda zan sadu da kai.

And thou shalt put them in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, before the Arke of the Testimonie, where I wil declare my selfe to you.

5 Sandan mutumin da na zaɓa zai yi toho, da haka zan raba kaina da gunagunin da Isra’ilawa suke yi.”

And the mans rod, whome I chuse, shall blossome: and I will make cease from mee the grudgings of the children of Israel, which grudge against you.

6 Saboda haka Musa ya yi magana da Isra’ilawa, sai shugabanninsu suka ba shi sanduna goma sha biyu, sanda ɗaya don shugaba, bisa ga gidajen kakanninsu, sandan Haruna kuma yana a cikinsu.

Then Moses spake vnto the children of Israel, and al their princes gaue him a rod, one rod for euery Prince, according to the houses of their fathers, euen twelue rods, and the rod of Aaron was among their roddes.

7 Sai Musa ya ajiye sandunan a gaban Ubangiji a cikin Tentin Sujada.

And Moses layde the rods before the Lord in the Tabernacle of the Testimonie.

8 Kashegari da Musa ya shiga cikin Tentin Sujada sai ga sandan Haruna na gidan Lawiyawa ya yi toho, ya yi furanni, ya kuma yi’ya’yan almon.

And when Moses on the morow went into the Tabernacle of the Testimonie, beholde, the rod of Aaron for the house of Leui was budded, and brought forth buddes, and brought forth blossoms, and bare ripe almondes.

9 Sai Musa ya fitar wa dukan Isra’ilawa dukan sandunan da suke daga gaban Ubangiji. Suka duba, kowa kuma ya ɗauki sandansa.

Then Moses brought out all the rods from before the Lord vnto all the children of Israel: and they looked vpon them, and tooke euery man his rodde.

10 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka mayar da sandan Haruna a akwatin Alkawari, don a ajiye shi alama ga masu tawaye. Wannan zai kawo ƙarshen gunaguninsu a kaina, domin kada su mutu.”

After, the Lord said vnto Moses, Bring Aarons rod againe before the Testimonie to bee kept for a token to the rebellious children, and thou shalt cause their murmurings to cease from me, that they dye not.

11 Musa kuwa ya aikata kamar dai yadda Ubangiji ya umarce shi.

So Moses did as the Lord had commanded him: so did he.

12 Sai Isra’ilawa suka ce wa Musa, “To, ai in haka ne, mun ƙare ke nan!

And the children of Israel spake vnto Moses, saying, Behold, we are dead, we perish, we are all lost:

13 Idan an ce duk wanda ya zo kusa da tabanakul na Ubangiji zai mutu, ai rayuwarmu kamar mun mutu ke nan.”

Whosoeuer commeth neere, or approcheth to the Tabernacle of the Lord, shall dye: shall we be consumed and dye?
