1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
UThixo wathi kuMosi,
2 E hoopai i ka hana ino ia mai o na mamo a Iseraela maluna o ka Midiana; a mahope e huiia aku oe me ou poe kanaka.
“Phindisela kumaMidiyani usenzela abako-Israyeli. Ngemva kwalokho, uzalandela okhokho bakho.”
3 Olelo aku la o Mose i na kanaka, i aku la, E hoomakaukau i kekahi poe o oukou no ke kaua, a e kuu aku ia lakou e hele ku e i ka Midiana, a e hoopai aku i ko Iehova maluna o ka Midiana.
Ngakho uMosi wathi ebantwini, “Hlomisani amanye amadoda aye empini ayekulwa lamaMidiyani kanye lokuphindisela kukaThixo kuwo.
4 I hookahi tausani no kela ohana, keia ohana ma na ohana a pau a Iseraela, ka oukou e hoouna aku ai i ke kaua.
Thumelani amadoda ayinkulungwane avela esizwaneni ngasinye sako-Israyeli ukuyahlasela.”
5 A ua haawiia mai noloko mai o na tausani o ka Iseraela, he tausani hookahi no kela ohana no keia ohana, he umikumamalua na tausani i makaukau no ke kaua.
Ngakho amadoda azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili ahlomela ukuyahlasela, kuyinkulungwane yamadoda avela esizwaneni ngasinye, ebuthwe ngosendo lunye ngalunye kwabako-Israyeli.
6 Hoouna aku la o Mose ia lakou i ke kaua, i hookahi tausani o ka ohana hookahi, ia lakou a me Pinehasa ke keiki a Eleazara ke kahuna, me na mea hoano, a me na pu e puhi aku ai ma kona lima, i ke kaua.
UMosi wabathumela ukuyahlasela, kuyinkulungwane evela esizwaneni ngasinye, kanye loFinehasi indodana ka-Eliyazari, umphristi, owathatha izitsha endlini engcwele kanye lamacilongo okubikelana.
7 A kaua aku la lakou i ka Midiana, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose; a pepehi iho la lakou i na kane a pau.
Balwa lamaMidiyani, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo, babulala amadoda wonke.
8 Pepehi iho la hoi lakou i na alii o Midiana, he okoa kela poe o lakou i pepehiia, o Evi, o Rekema, o Zura, o Hura, a me Reba, na alii elima o Midiana: pepehi iho la hoi lakou ia Balaama ke keiki a Beora me ka pahikaua.
Phakathi kwababulawayo kwakulamakhosi amahlanu amaMidiyani abalisa u-Evi, uRekhemu, uZuri, uHuri kanye loRebha. Babulala loBhalamu indodana kaBheyori ngenkemba.
9 Lawe pio aku la na mamo a Iseraela i na wahine a me ka lakou poe keiki liilii, a hao ae la lakou i na bipi o lakou a pau, me na holoholona a pau o lakou, a me ko lakou waiwai a pau.
Abako-Israyeli bathumba abesifazane bamaMidiyani labantwana, basebethumba lemihlambi yenkomo zamaMidiyani, leyezimvu kanye lokubutha impahla njengempango.
10 Puhi aku la lakou i na kulanakauhale a pau kahi a lakou i noho ai, a me na pa holoholona a pau o lakou, i ke ahi.
Batshisa wonke amadolobho lapha okwakuhlala khona amaMidiyani, kanye lezihonqo zawo zonke.
11 Lalau ae la lakou i ka waiwai pio a pau, a me ka mea a pau i haoia, o na kanaka a me na holoholona.
Bathatha konke ababekubuthile lababekuthumbile, kuhlanganisa abantu lezifuyo,
12 Lawe mai la lakou i na pio a me ka waiwai pio, a me na holoholona, io Mose la laua o Eleazara ke kahuna, a i ke anaina kanaka o na mamo a Iseraela, i kahi hoomoana ma na papu o Moaba ma Ioredane o Ieriko.
njalo basebeletha abathunjwa, okuthunjiweyo lokubuthiweyo kuMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi kanye lebandleni lonke lako-Israyeli ezihonqweni zabo zasemagcekeni aseMowabi, ngaseJodani ngaphetsheya ukuvelela eJerikho.
13 Hele aku la o Mose me Eleazara ke kahuna, a me na luna a pau o ke anaina kanaka e halawai me lakou mawaho o kahi hoomoana.
UMosi, u-Eliyazari umphristi kanye labo bonke abakhokheli babantu baphuma ukuyabahlangabeza ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
14 Huhu aku la o Mose i na luna kaua, i na luna tausani a me na luna haneri, i hele mai, mai ke kaua mai.
UMosi wathukuthelela abalawuli bamabutho, ababelawula amaxuku ezinkulungwane lababelawula amaxuku angamakhulu, ababevela ekuhlaseleni.
15 I aku la o Mose ia lakou, Ua hoola mai no anei oukou i na wahine a pau?
UMosi wababuza wathi, “Selivumele abesifazane ukuthi baphile na?
16 Aia hoi, o keia ka poe i hoowalewale i na mamo a Iseraela, mamuli o ka manao o Balaama, e lawehala ia Iehova ma ka mea a Peora, a hiki mai no ke ahulau iwaena o ke anaina kanaka o Iehova.
Yibo ababelandela ukucebisa kukaBhalamu njalo bahugela abako-Israyeli ekungathembekini kuThixo kulokhu okwenzakala ePheyori, kwaze kwathi abantu bakaThixo behlelwa yisifo.
17 No ia hoi, e pepehi oukou i na kane a pau iwaena o na kamalii, a e pepehi i na wahine a pau i ike i ke kane ma ka moe me ia.
Khona khathesi bulalani abafana bonke. Njalo libulale wonke owesifazane oseke walala lendoda,
18 Aka, o ka poe kaikamahine a pau i ike ole i ke kane ma ka moe me ia, oia ka oukou e hoola ai.
kodwa lizigcinele loba yiphi intombazana engakaze ilale lendoda.
19 A e noho oukou mawaho o kahi hoomoana i na la ehiku: o ka mea i pepehi i kekahi kanaka, a o ka mea i hoopa aku i ke kupapau, e huikala oukou ia oukou iho a me ko oukou poe pio, i ke kolu o ka la, a i ka hiku o ka la.
Lina lonke elibulele loba ngubani loba lina elike lathinta loba ngubani obuleweyo lizahlala ngaphandle kwezihonqo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa. Ngosuku lwesithathu langosuku lwesikhombisa lizihlambulule lina kanye labathunjwa benu.
20 E huikala hoi oukou i na aahu a pau, a me na mea ili a pau, a me na mea hulu kao a pau, a me na mea laau a pau.
Lihlambulule zonke izembatho kanye lakho konke okwenziwe ngesikhumba, uboya bembuzi loba okwezigodo.”
21 Olelo aku la hoi o Eleazara ke kahuna i na koa i hele aku i ke kaua, Eia ka oihana o ke kanawai a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose;
Ngakho u-Eliyazari umphristi wathi kwabebutho ababeye empini, “Nanku okufaneleyo ngokomthetho owaphiwa uMosi nguThixo:
22 O ke gula wale no, o ke kala, o ke keleawe, o ka hao, o ka piuta, a me ke kepau,
Igolide, isiliva, ithusi, insimbi, izenge lomnuso,
23 O kela mea keia mea e pono ma ke ahi, oia ka oukou e hoohele mawaena o ke ahi, a e huikalaia oia; a e hoomaemaeia no nae ia i ka wai huikala: a o na mea a pau e pono ole ma ke ahi, oia ka oukou e hoohele mawaena o ka wai.
kanye lakho konke okunye okungatshi kutshabalale emlilweni kumele kudlule emlilweni, ngalokho kuzabe sekuhlambulukile. Kodwa kumele njalo kube sekuhlanjululiwe ngamanzi okuhlambulula. Kanti njalo kuthi lakuphi okungeke kwamelana lomlilo kumele kudluliswe kulawomanzi.
24 A i ka hiku o ka la, e holoi oukou i ko oukou mau aahu, a e maemae oukou; a mahope iho e hele mai auanei oukou maloko o kahi hoomoana.
Ngosuku lwesikhombisa gezisani izigqoko zenu ukuze lihlambuluke. Ngemva kwalokho selingangena ezihonqweni.”
25 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
UThixo wathi kuMosi,
26 E helu i ka waiwai pio o ka poe i lawe pio, o kanaka a me na holoholona, o oe a me Eleazara ke kahuna, a me na lunakahiko o ke anaina kanaka.
“Wena kanye lo-Eliyazari umphristi kanye labazinhloko zezimuli zabantu lizabala abantu bonke lezinyamazana, konke okwathunjwayo.
27 A e puunaue i ka waiwai pio i na puu elua; no ka poe i lawe i ke kaua maluna o lakou iho, ka poe i hele aku i ke kaua kekahi, a no ke anaina kanaka a pau kekahi.
Yabelani amabutho ayesempini kanye labantu bonke impango ngokulinganayo.
28 A e auhau oe no Iehova i na kanaka kaua, i ka poe i hele aku i ke kaua: i hookahi kino noloko mai o na haneri elima, o na kanaka, o na bipi, o na hoki, a o na hipa.
Emabuthweni alwayo empini, thathani okukodwa emakhulwini amahlanu kube yisabelo sikaThixo, kumbe ngabantu, inkomo, obabhemi, izimvu loba imbuzi.
29 E lawe ia noloko mai o ka lakou hapalua, a e haawi aku na Eleazara ke kahuna, i mohai kaikai no Iehova.
Thathani lesisabelo engxenyeni yesabo liyiphe u-Eliyazari umphristi ibe yingxenye kaThixo.
30 A noloko mai o ka hapalua no na mamo a Iseraela, kau e lawe aku ai i hookahi hapa kanalima o na kanaka, o na bipi, o na hoki, o na hipa, a o na holoholona a pau, a e haawi aku ia mau mea na na Levi, na ka poe e malama ana i ka ukana o ka halelewa no Iehova.
Kungxenye yabako-Israyeli, khethani okukodwa ematshumini amahlanu, phakathi kwabantu, inkomo, obabhemi, izimvu, imbuzi loba ezinye izifuyo. Zipheni abaLevi, bona abalomlandu wokunakekela ithabanikeli likaThixo.”
31 A hana aku la o Mose laua o Eleazara ke kahuna, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
Ngakho uMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi benza njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
32 A o ka waiwai pio, o ke koena o ka waiwai pio a na kanaka kaua i lawe pio ai, he aono haneri me kanahikukumamalima na tausani hipa.
Impango eyayisele kulokho okwathathwa ngamabutho kwakuyizimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu,
33 A he kanahikukumamalua na tausani bipi.
inkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lambili,
34 A he kanaonokumamakahi na tausani hoki.
obabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi ayisithupha lanye
35 A he kanakolukumamalua na tausani wahine a pau i ike ole i ke kane ma ka moe ana me ia.
kanye labesifazane abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lambili ababengakaze balale lamadoda.
36 A o ka hapalua, ka puu a ka poe i hele aku i ke kaua, ma ka helu ana, he akolu haneri me kanakolukumamahiku na tausani hipa, a me na haneri keu elima.
Ingxenye yesabelo salabo abalwayo empini: sasingesezimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amathathu alesikhombisa, lamakhulu amahlanu,
37 A o na hipa auhau na Iehova, he aono haneri me kanahikukumamalima.
lapho abakhipha khona umnikelo kaThixo oyizimvu ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu;
38 A he kanakolukumamaono na tausani bipi; a o ka auhau na Iehova noloko mai o ia poe, he kanahikukumamalua.
lenkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lesithupha, okwakhitshwa kizo ezomnikelo kaThixo ezingamatshumi ayisikhombisa lambili;
39 A o na hoki, he kanakolu na tausani, a me na haneri keu elima; a o ka auhau na Iehova noloko mai o ia poe, he kanaonokumamakahi.
obabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lamakhulu amahlanu, kwathi umnikelo kaThixo waba ngamatshumi ayisithupha lanye;
40 A o na wahine, he umikumamaono na tausani; a he kanakolukumamalua o lakou ke auhau no Iehova.
abantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi lasithupha, kwanikelwa kuThixo ngabangamatshumi amathathu lambili.
41 A haawi aku la o Mose i ka auhau, i ka mea mohaikaikai a Iehova, na Eleazara ke kahuna, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
UMosi wanika u-Eliyazari umphristi isabelo sikaThixo, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
42 A o ka hapalua a na mamo a Iseraela, ka mea a Mose i puunaue ai mai na kanaka kaua mai.
Ingxenye yesabelo sabako-Israyeli uMosi wayeseyehlukanise leyamabutho,
43 (O ka ke anaina kanaka hapalua, he akolu haneri me ke kanakolukumamahiku na tausani hipa, a me na haneri keu elima,
ingxenye eyayingeyabantu yaba yizimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa, lamakhulu amahlanu,
44 A he kanakolukumamaono na tausani bipi,
inkomo eziyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lasithupha,
45 A he kanakolu tausani na hoki me na haneri keu elima.
obabhemi abazinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu lamakhulu amahlanu
46 A he umikumamaono tausani na wahine.)
kanye labantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi lasithupha.
47 A lawe aku la o Mose i hookahi hapa kanalima, noloko mai o ka hapalua a na mamo a Iseraela, i na kanaka a me na holoholona, a haawi aku ia lakou na ka poe Levi, ka poe i malama i ka ukana o ka halelewa o Iehova; e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ia Mose.
Engxenyeni yesabelo sabako-Israyeli, uMosi waqambula okukodwa ematshumini amahlanu abantu lasezifuyweni, njengokulaywa kwakhe nguThixo, njalo wakuqhubela abaLevi, bona ababelomlandu wokunakekela ithabanikeli likaThixo.
48 Hele mai la na luna o na tausani o ke kaua, a kokoke io Mose la, o na luna tausani a me na luna haneri:
Ngakho izikhulu ezaziphethe izigaba zebutho, abalawuli bamaxuku azinkulungwane kanye labalawuli bamaxuku angamakhulu baya kuMosi
49 I aku la lakou ia Mose, Ua helu iho nei kau poe kauwa i na kanaka kaua malalo iho o makou, aole hoi i nalowale kekahi kanaka o makou:
bafika bathi kuye, “Izinceku zakho seziwabalile amabutho eziwalawulayo, akukho lelilodwa ibutho elingekho.
50 Nolaila makou i lawe mai nei i alana no Iehova, i ka mea a kela kanaka a keia kanaka i loaa'i, o na mea gula, na kupee, na apo, na komolima, na apo pepeiao, na leia-i, i mea hookalahala ia makou iho imua o Iehova.
Ngakho sesilethe njengomnikelo kuThixo izinto zegolide esizitholileyo munye ngamunye, izigqizo, amasongo, izindandatho, amacici kanye lezigqizo zentanyeni, ukuzenzela indlela yokubuyisana phambi kukaThixo.”
51 A lawe aku la o Mose a me Eleazara i ke gula, i na mea i hanaia a pau, mai o lakou aku.
UMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi bemukela igolide elalivela kubo, konke lokho kungokubaziweyo.
52 O ke gula a pau o ka mohai, ka mea a na luna tausani a me na luna haneri i kaumaha aku ai no Iehova, he umikumamaono tausani ehiku haneri a me kanalima na sekela.
Lonke igolide elalethwa ngabalawuli emunye elawula amaxuku azinkulungwane labalawuli emunye elawula ikhulu lelo uMosi lo-Eliyazari abalethula njengesipho kuThixo lalilesisindo samashekeli azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesithupha, lamakhulu ayisikhombisa alamatshumi amahlanu.
53 No ka mea, ua lawe na kanaka kaua i ka waiwai pio, o kela kanaka keia kanaka nona iho.)
Ibutho ngalinye lazithumbela okwalo lalo.
54 Lawe aku la o Mose laua o Eleazara ke kahuna i ke gula o na luna tausani a me na luna haneri, a halihali aku la ia mea iloko o ka halelewa o ke anaina, i mea hoomanao no na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova.
UMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi bemukela igolide elalivela kubalawuli emunye elawula amaxuku azinkulungwane lakubalawuli emunye elawula amaxuku angamakhulu, balisa ethenteni lokuhlangana ukuze kube yisikhumbuzo kwabako-Israyeli phambi kukaThixo.
