Ọnụọgụgụ 10
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
Yahweh also told Moses/me,
2 “Kpụọ opi ọlaọcha abụọ, jiri ha na-akpọ mkpọkọta nzukọ ụmụ Izrel na ime ka ha mara mgbe mbuli ije nke ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ruru.
“[Tell someone to] make two trumpets by hammering each one from [one lump of] silver. Blow the trumpets to summon the people to come together and also to signal that they must move their tents [to a new location].
3 Mgbe a fụrụ opi abụọ ahụ, nzukọ Izrel niile ga-ezukọta nʼihu gị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute.
If both trumpets are blown, it means that everyone must gather together at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
4 Ma ọ bụrụ naanị otu opi ka a fụrụ, ọ bụ ndị ndu, ndịisi ikwu Izrel niile ga-ezukọta bịakwute gị.
If only one trumpet is blown, it means that only the [twelve] leaders of the tribes must gather together.
5 Otu ụda opi ike ga-egosi na ebo Izrel niile mara ụlọ ikwu ha nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ga-ebuli ije.
If the trumpets are blown loudly, the tribes that are to the east [of the Sacred Tent] should start to travel.
6 Opi ike ahụ daa ụda nke ugboro abụọ, ọ na-egosi na ndị mara ụlọ ikwu ha na ndịda ga-ebuli ije. Ịda ụda nke opi ike bụ ihe e ji amata na oge ibuli ije eruola.
When the trumpets are blown loudly the second time, the tribes that are to the south should start to travel. The loud blasts on the trumpet will signal that they should start to travel.
7 Mgbe a ga-akpọkọta ndị Izrel niile a ga-egbu opi, kama ụda ya ga-adị iche.
When you want only to gather the people together, blow the trumpets, but do not blow them as loudly.
8 “Ọ bụ naanị ụmụ ndị ikom Erọn, ndị nchụaja ga-egbu opi ndị a. Nke a bụ iwu ga-adịgide nye unu site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ niile.
“The priests who are descended from Aaron are the ones who should blow the trumpets. That is a regulation that will never be changed.
9 Mgbe unu gara ibu agha nʼala unu imegide onye iro na-akpagbu unu, fụọnụ opi ike. Nke a ga-eme ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu cheta unu, ma napụta unu site nʼaka ndị iro unu.
When you fight against enemies who attack you in your own land, tell the priests to blow the trumpets loudly. I, Yahweh, your God, will hear that, and I will rescue you from your enemies.
10 Unu ga-egbukwa opi ndị a nʼoge aṅụrị, nʼoge mmemme unu a kara aka, na nʼoge mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ niile. Gbukwaanụ opi mgbe unu na-achụ aja nsure ọkụ unu, na aja udo unu niile. Ka ọ bụrụ ihe a ga-eji na-echeta unu nʼihu Chineke unu. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.”
Also tell the priests to blow the trumpets when the people are happy, and at the festivals [each year], and at the times when they celebrate the new moon each month. Tell them to blow the trumpets when the people bring offerings that will be completely burned, and when they bring offerings to maintain fellowship with me. If they do that, it will help you to remember that I, Yahweh your God, [will help you].”
11 Nʼụbọchị iri abụọ, nʼime ọnwa nke abụọ, nʼafọ nke abụọ, igwe ojii ahụ biliri site nʼelu ụlọ nzute nke igbe iwu ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ.
On the twentieth day of May in the second year [after the/we Israelis left Egypt], the cloud rose up from above the Sacred Tent.
12 Mgbe ahụ, ụmụ Izrel biliri ije site nʼọzara Saịnaị jegharịa site nʼotu ebe ruo nʼebe ọzọ tutu igwe ojii ahụ akwụsị nʼọzara Paran.
So we/the Israelis traveled from the Sinai Desert, and we/they continued traveling [north] until the cloud stopped in the Paran Desert.
13 Nke a bụ njem mbụ ha mere dịka Onyenwe anyị si nye Mosis iwu banyere ije ha.
That was the first time we/they moved, obeying the instructions that Yahweh had given to Moses/me to tell them.

29 Mosis gwara Hobab nwa Reuel, nna nwunye ya onye Midia okwu sị, “Anyị ebiliela ije ịga ebe ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara anyị sị, ‘Aga m enye unu.’ Bịa ka ị soro anyị. Anyị ga-emezi gị nke ọma nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ekwela Izrel nkwa ọtụtụ ezi ihe.”
One day Moses/I said to his/my brother-in-law Hobab, the son of Reuel from the Midian people-group, “We are on the way to the place that Yahweh promised to give to us. Come with us, and we will take good care of you, because Yahweh has promised [to do] good things for us Israeli people.”
30 Ma ọ zara sị, “E e, agaghị m eso unu. Ana m alaghachi nʼala nke aka m ịlaghachikwuru ụmụnna m.”
But Hobab replied, “No, I will not go with you. I want to return to my own land and to my own family.”
31 Ma Mosis zara sị ya, “Biko ahapụla anyị nʼihi na ị maara ebe anyị nwere ike kwụsị zuo ike nʼọzara. Ị ga-abụrụ anyị anya anyị ji ahụ ụzọ.
But Moses/I said, “Please do not leave us. You know the places where we can set up our tents in this desert, and you can guide us.
32 Ọ bụrụ na i soro anyị, anyị ga-ekenye gị ihe ọma ọbụla Onyenwe anyị ga-enye anyị.”
Come with us. We will share with you all the good things that Yahweh gives to us.”
33 Ya mere ha sitere nʼugwu Onyenwe anyị bilie ije. Jeekwa ije abalị atọ. Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na-aga ha nʼihu ụbọchị atọ ndị ahụ niile ịchọtara ha ebe ha ga-akwụsị zuo ike.
[So Hobab agreed to go with them]. The Israelis left Sinai Mountain, [which they called] Yahweh’s Mountain, and they walked for three days. The [men carrying the] sacred chest went in front of the other people for those three days, and they kept looking for a place to set up their tents.
34 Igwe ojii Onyenwe anyị dị nʼelu ha nʼehihie mgbe ha si nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ha bilie ije.
The cloud sent by Yahweh was over them every day.
35 Mgbe ọbụla igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ biliri ije, Mosis na-ekwu sị, “Bilie O Onyenwe anyị, ka ndị iro ya bụrụ ndị a chụsasịrị; ka ndị iro gị niile site nʼihu gị gbalaga.”
Each morning when the men who were carrying the sacred chest started to walk, Moses/I said, “Yahweh, arise! Scatter your enemies! Cause those who hate you to run away from you!”
36 Ma mgbe ọbụla igbe ọgbụgba ndụ bịara ebe izuike, Mosis na-ekwukwa sị, “Lọghachi O Onyenwe anyị, bịakwute ọtụtụ mmadụ ndị a, bụ imerime puku ndị Izrel.”
And each time the men [stopped to] set down the sacred chest, Moses/I said, “Yahweh, stay close to the thousands of us Israelis!”
