1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
2 “Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri baleete emiggo kkumi n’ebiri nga gireetebwa abakulembeze baabwe mu buli kika, omuggo gumu buli kika. Owandiike erinnya lya buli musajja ku muggo gwe gw’aleese.
Speak - to [the] people of Israel and take from with them a rod a rod for [the] house of an ancestor from with all leaders their to [the] house of ancestors their two [plus] ten rods each name his you will write on rod his.
3 Wandiika erinnya lya Alooni ku muggo oguvudde mu kika kya Leevi. Kubanga buli mukulembeze w’ekika ky’obujjajja ajja kubeera n’omuggo ggumu.
And [the] name of Aaron you will write on [the] rod of Levi for a rod one [is] for [the] head of [the] house of ancestors their.
4 Olyoke ogiteeke mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu mu maaso g’Essanduuko ey’Endagaano, we mbasisinkana.
And you will deposit them in [the] tent of meeting before the testimony where I meet you there.
5 Kale nno omuggo gw’oyo gwe nnaalonda gujja kutojjera; bwe ntyo nzija kusirisa okukwemulugunyiza kuno okutatadde okw’abaana ba Isirayiri.”
And it will be the man whom I will choose him rod his it will bud and I will put an end to from on me [the] grumblings of [the] people of Israel which they [are] grumbling on you.
6 Musa n’ategeeza abaana ba Isirayiri; abakulembeze baabwe ne bamuleetera emiggo, buli mukulembeze omuggo gumu gumu, ng’ebika by’obujjajjaabwe bwe byali, okugatta gyonna gy’emiggo kkumi n’ebiri, nga n’omuggo gwa Alooni mwe guli.
And he spoke Moses to [the] people of Israel and they gave to him - all leaders their a rod for a leader one a rod for a leader one to [the] house of ancestors their two [plus] ten rods and [the] rod of Aaron [was] in among rods their.
7 Musa n’ateeka emiggo egyo mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda mu Weema ya Mukama ey’Endagaano.
And he deposited Moses the rods before Yahweh in [the] tent of the testimony.
8 Awo bwe bwakya enkya Musa n’ayingira mu Weema ya Mukama awali Essanduuko ey’Endagaano, era laba, ng’omuggo gwa Alooni ow’omu kika kya Leevi nga gutojjedde nga guliko n’obutabi obuto, nga gutaddeko n’ebibala ebyengedde.
And it was from [the] next day and he went Moses into [the] tent of the testimony and there! it had budded [the] rod of Aaron of [the] house of Levi and it had put forth bud[s] and it had blossomed blossom and it had ripened almonds.

And he brought out Moses all the rods from to before Yahweh to all [the] people of Israel and they saw and they took each one rod his.
10 Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti, “Omuggo gwa Alooni guzzeeyo awali Essanduuko ey’Endagaano gukuumirwenga awo ng’akabonero ak’okulabulanga abajeemu. Ekyo kinaasirisa okunneemulugunyiza, balyoke bawone okufa.”

11 Musa n’akola nga Mukama bwe yamulagira.
And he did Moses just as he had commanded Yahweh him so he did.
12 Awo abaana ba Isirayiri ne bagamba Musa nti, “Laba, ffenna tujja kufa! Tujja kuggwaawo, tujja kuzikirira.
And they said [the] people of Israel to Moses saying here! we will die we will perish all of us (we will perish. *LAB(h)*)
