Okubala 18
1 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Alooni nti, “Ggwe, ne batabani bo, n’ab’omu kika kyo bonna, mmwe munaavunaanyizibwanga olw’emisango eginazzibwanga ku watukuvu; era ggwe ne batabani bo mwekka mmwe muneetikkanga obuvunaanyizibwa ku misango eginazzibwanga ku bwakabona.
Awurade kasa kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ, “Wo, wo mmammarima ne wʼabusuafoɔ a wɔfiri Lewi abusuakuo mu no, mfomsoɔ biara a ɛfa kronkronbea hɔ no ho asodie bɛda mo so. Na sɛ biribi ankɔ so yie wɔ asɔfodwuma no mu a, wɔbɛbisa wo ne wo mmammarima ho asɛm.
2 Onooleetanga Abaleevi banno ab’omu kika kyo eky’obujjajja ne babeegattako, ggwe ne batabani bo, okubayambanga bwe munaabanga muweereza mu Weema ya Mukama ey’Endagaano.
Fa wo nkurɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ Lewi abusuakuo no mu ma wɔmmoa wo mmammarima wɔ dwumadie kronkron no a wɔyɛ no Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no anim.
3 Banaaweererezanga wansi wo nga bakola emirimu gyonna egy’omu Weema ya Mukama; naye beekuumenga balemenga okusemberera ekyoto wadde eby’omu watukuvu byonna; bwe balikikola, bo naawe mugenda kufa.
Ɛsɛ sɛ Lewifoɔ no hwɛ yie na wɔansɔ biribiara a ɛyɛ kronkron wɔ afɔrebukyia no so mu. Sɛ wɔyɛ saa a, mɛsɛe wo ne wɔn.
4 Bagenda kukwegattako, balabirirenga Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, nga bakola emirimu gyonna egy’omu Weema, era tewaabenga mugwira n’omu anaasemberanga we muli.
Obiara a ɔmfiri Lewi abusua mu nni ho kwan sɛ ɔboa wo ɛkwan biara so.
5 “Mmwe munaabanga n’obuvunaanyizibwa obw’emirimu gyonna egy’awatukuvu n’egy’Ekyoto, olwo obusungu buleme kuddamu kubuubuukiranga ku baana ba Isirayiri.
“Kae sɛ asɔfoɔ no nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi dwuma a ɛho te wɔ kronkronbea hɔ ne afɔrebukyia no so. Sɛ wodi saa mmara yi so a, Onyankopɔn abufuo no remma Israelfoɔ no so bio sɛ wɔabu mmara yi so.
6 Kale weeteegereze: nziridde ab’omu lulyo lwo olw’Abaleevi nga mbalonze mu baana ba Isirayiri, ne mbakukwasa ng’ekirabo ekiweereddwayo eri Mukama Katonda okukolanga emirimu egy’omu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
Meka bio sɛ, Lewifoɔ a wɔyɛ wo nkurɔfoɔ no na wɔmmoa wo wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu dwumadie no. Wɔyɛ akyɛdeɛ firi Awurade hɔ ma wo.
7 Naye ggwe ne batabani bo mwekka mmwe munaakolanga emirimu gyonna egy’obwakabona bwammwe egikwata ku kyoto n’egy’omunda w’eggigi. Obuweereza obw’Obwakabona mbubawadde ng’ekirabo. Omuntu yenna omulala anaasemberanga okumpi n’awatukuvu, anaafanga.”
Nanso, wo ne wo mmammarima asɔfoɔ no ankasa na mobɛdi dwuma a ɛho te wɔ afɔrebukyia no so ne deɛ ɛwɔ ntwamutam no mu, na asɔfodwuma no deɛ, ɛyɛ mo ara mo dom akyɛdeɛ dwumadie. Onipa foforɔ biara a ɔbɛyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛdi dwuma no bi no bɛwu.”
8 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Alooni nti, “Laba, Nze kennyini nkukwasizza ebiweebwayo byonna ebireetebwa gye ndi; ebiweebwayo byonna ebitukuvu abaana ba Isirayiri bye banandeeteranga mbikuwadde ggwe ne batabani bo nga gwe mugabo gwammwe ogw’olubeerera.
Awurade sane ka kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ: “Mede akyɛdeɛ a nkurɔfoɔ de abrɛ Awurade no nyinaa ama asɔfoɔ no; saa akyɛdeɛ yi a wɔhim no Awurade anim nam so de kyɛɛ no wɔ afɔrebukyia no anim no no, daa daa mmara enti, ɛyɛ mo ne mo mmammarima dea.
9 Ku biweebwayo byonna ebitukuvu ennyo ebitayokeddwa mu muliro kunaabangako ebibyo. Omugabo gwo ne batabani bo gunaavanga ku birabo ebitukuvu ennyo abaana ba Isirayiri bye banandeeteranga: ebiweebwayo eby’emmere y’empeke oba ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi, oba ebiweebwayo olw’omusango.
Aduane afɔrebɔ, bɔne afɔrebɔ ne afɔbuo afɔrebɔ nyinaa yɛ mo dea, agye emu bi a wɔhye no wɔ afɔrebukyia so de kyɛ Awurade no nko ara. Yeinom nyinaa yɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛyɛ kronkron pa ara.
10 Omugabo ogwo onooguliiranga mu kifo ekitukuvu ennyo, era buli musajja anaagulyangako. Osaana okitegeere ng’ebyo bitukuvu nnyo.
Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdi no baabi a ɛyɛ kronkron pa ara. Na mmarima nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdie.
11 “Bino nabyo binaabanga bibyo: ku birabo bye banandeeteranga, n’ebiweebwayo ebiwuubibwawuubibwa eby’abaana ba Isirayiri. Ebyo mbikuwadde ne batabani bo ne bawala bo okuba omugabo gwo ogw’olubeerera. Buli muntu yenna ow’omu maka go omulongoofu anaalyangako.
“Akyɛdeɛ afoforɔ a wɔnam him a wɔbɛhim wɔ afɔrebukyia no so de bɛkyɛ me no yɛ wo ne wʼabusuafoɔ, wo mmammarima ne wo mmammaa nyinaa dea. Na wʼabusuafoɔ nyinaa tumi di bi, agye obi a saa ɛberɛ no na ne ho nte.
12 “Nkuwadde ku mafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni agasinga obulungi ne ku wayini omusu, ne ku mmere y’empeke embereberye bye baleetera Mukama eby’amakungula gaabwe.
“Otwa berɛ a ɛdi ɛkan mu akyɛdeɛ a nnipa no de bɛba sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔde rebrɛ Awurade no a ɛyɛ ngo pa, bobesa pa, aburoo ne afudeɛ biara no, ne nyinaa yɛ mo dea.
13 Ebibala ebinaasookanga okwengera mu nnimiro zaabwe, bye banaaleeteranga Mukama Katonda, binaabanga bibyo. Buli muntu yenna ow’omu maka go omulongoofu anaalyangako.
Sɛ mo abusuafoɔ hwɛ na wɔn ho te a, wɔtumi di yeinom nyinaa bi.
14 “Buli kintu kyonna mu Isirayiri ekiweereddwayo ddala ne kiwongebwa eri Mukama kinaabanga kikyo.
“Deɛ wɔde bɛma Awurade biara yɛ mo dea.
15 Buli ekinaggulangawo enda y’omuntu oba ey’ekisolo, nga kyakuwaayo eri Mukama Katonda, kinaabanga kikyo. Naye omwana omubereberye ow’omuntu onoomununulanga, era n’embereberye ez’ensolo ezitali nnongoofu nazo onoozinunulanga.
Israelfoɔ abakan ne wɔn mmoa nyinaa abakan a wɔde brɛ Awurade yɛ mo dea. Nanso mmoa a memmaa mo ɛkwan sɛ wɔnwe wɔn nam no deɛ, monnnye wɔn abakan. Na mmom, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtua sika kakra de si abakan biara anan.
16 Ebyo eby’okununula onoobinunulanga bimaze okuweza omwezi gumu ogw’obukulu. Onoobinunuliranga ku muwendo ogwagerekebwa ogwa gulaamu amakumi ataano mu ttaano, ng’ebipimo by’awatukuvu bwe biri.
Sɛ abakan no di bosome a, na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ɔgye boɔ a ɛyɛ dwetɛ gram aduonum nsia sɛdeɛ kronkronbea hɔ nkariboɔ a ɛyɛ gram dubaako ne nkyemu anum mu baako no teɛ no ba.
17 “Naye embereberye ey’ente, oba embereberye ey’endiga oba ey’embuzi, ezo toozinunulenga, kubanga zo ntukuvu. Onoomansiranga omusaayi gwazo ku kyoto, n’oyokya amasavu gaazo mu muliro ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa ekivaamu akawoowo akasanyusa Mukama Katonda.
“Nanso anantwie, nnwan ne mpɔnkye mmakan deɛ, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔgye wɔn. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde wɔn bɔ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade. Wɔn mogya na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde pete afɔrebukyia no so na wɔhye wɔn sradeɛ no sɛ ogya afɔdeɛ. Ɛyɛ adeɛ a Awurade ani sɔ.
18 Ennyama yaazo eneebanga yiyo ng’ekiweebwayo ky’ekifuba ekiwuubibwawuubibwa n’ekisambi ekya ddyo bwe kiri ekikyo.
Saa mmoa yi nyinaa ɛnam bɛyɛ mo dea. Ne yan ne ne srɛ nifa a wɔbɛhim no afɔrebukyia no anim de akyerɛ sɛ wɔde ama Awurade no nso, mobɛfa.
19 Ebiweebwayo byonna ebitukuvu abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaaleeteranga Mukama, mbikuwadde, ggwe ne batabani bo, ne bawala bo, okubeeranga omugabo gwo ogw’olubeerera. Eneebeeranga endagaano ey’omunnyo eya Mukama wakati we naawe n’ezzadde lyo emirembe gyonna.”
Mede afɔrebɔdeɛ a Israelfoɔ de bɛbrɛ Awurade a wɔbɛhim no no nyinaa ma mo ne mo abusuafoɔ. Mo ne mo abusuafoɔ mfa na monni. Yei yɛ bɔhyɛ a ɛda mo ne Awurade ne mo asefoɔ ntam daa nyinaa.”
20 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Alooni nti, “Toobenga na byabusika mu nsi yaabwe, so toobenga na mugabo gwonna mu bo; Nze mugabo gwo era Nze busika bwo mu baana ba Isirayiri.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Aaron sɛ, “Mo asɔfoɔ no nso, ɛnsɛ sɛ mopɛ agyapadeɛ ne akatua foforɔ biara. Na me ara na me ho hia mo.
21 “Ebitundu eby’ekkumi byonna abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaaleetanga, mbiwadde Abaleevi okubeeranga omugabo gwabwe nga ye mpeera yaabwe olw’omulimu gwe bakola nga baweereza mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
“Na Lewi abusuakuo deɛ, wɔfiri Israel asase so ho adwumadeɛ ntotosoɔ dudu no mu na ɛbɛtua wɔn ka.
22 Era okuva leero abaana ba Isirayiri tebaasembererenga Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, si kulwa nga bakolerayo ebibi, ne bafa.
Ɛfiri ɛnnɛ rekorɔ, Israelfoɔ a wɔnyɛ asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ no nni ho kwan sɛ wɔkɔ kronkron mu kronkron hɔ. Wɔyɛ saa a, wɔbɛbu wɔn fɔ na wɔawuwu.
23 Abaleevi be banaakolanga emirimu egy’omu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, era be baneetikkanga obuvunaanyizibwa bwe banaakolerangayo ebibi. Lino linaabanga tteeka ery’enkalakkalira ne mu mirembe gyammwe gyonna egigenda okujja. Tebaafunenga byabusika mu baana ba Isirayiri.
Lewifoɔ no nko ara na wɔbɛyɛ adwuma wɔ hɔ. Sɛ wɔanyɛ a, wɔbɛbu wɔn fɔ. Ɛyɛ mmara a ɛda hɔ afebɔɔ sɛ ɛnsɛ sɛ Lewini biara nya agyapadeɛ wɔ Israelman mu.
24 Kubanga ebitundu eby’ekkumi abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaaleetanga ng’ekiweebwayo eri Mukama, mbiwadde Abaleevi okubeera omugabo gwabwe. Noolwekyo tebaabenga na byabusika mu baana ba Isirayiri.”
Mmom, ntotosoɔ dudu a ɔmanfoɔ de ba ma wɔhim no afɔrebukyia no anim de ma Awurade no na ɛsɛ sɛ Lewifoɔ no fa. Yei yɛ agyapadeɛ, enti ɛho nhia sɛ wɔpɛ agyapadeɛ foforɔ bi bio.”
25 Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
Awurade sane ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
26 “Yogera n’Abaleevi obagambe nti, ‘Bwe munaafunanga ebitundu eby’ekkumi, bye mbawadde ng’omugabo gwammwe, nga mubiggya ku baana ba Isirayiri, munaggyangako ekitundu eky’ekkumi ne mukireeta nga kye kiweebwayo kyammwe eri Mukama Katonda.
“Ka kyerɛ Lewifoɔ no sɛ, ntotosoɔ dudu a wɔnya no, wɔmfa nkyɛmu edu mu baako mma Awurade. Ɛbɛyɛ ntotosoɔ dudu mu ntotosoɔ dudu a wɔnam him a wɔbɛhim no afɔrebukyia no anim de ama Awurade no so.
27 Ekiweebwayo kyammwe kinaabalibwanga ng’emmere y’empeke ey’omu gguuliro oba ng’omubisi ogw’omu ssogolero.
Na Awurade bɛgye no sɛ mo afɔrebɔdeɛ a ɛdi ɛkan a ɛyɛ aduane ne nsã a mode rema no sɛdeɛ ɛfiri mo ara mo agyapadeɛ mu.
28 Mu ngeri eyo nammwe munaaleetanga ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda nga mukiggya ku bitundu eby’ekkumi bye munaafunanga ku baana ba Isirayiri. Ku bitundu ebyo eby’ekkumi kwe munaggyanga ekiweebwayo kya Mukama ne mukikwasa Alooni kabona.
Saa ntotosoɔ dudu mu ntotosoɔ dudu yi a mobɛnya yi mu na mode bɛma ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron sɛ Awurade kyɛfa.
29 Mu birabo ebyo byonna bye banaabawanga munaggyangako ekisingira ddala obulungi era ekitukuvu ennyo ne mukireeta nga kye kiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda.’
Biribiara a wɔde bɛma mo no, momfa emu deɛ ɛyɛ pa ara na ɛyɛ kronkron no mma Awurade.
30 “Abaleevi bagambe nti, ‘Bwe munaawangayo ebitundu ebisinga obulungi, binaababalirwangako ng’ebivudde mu gguuliro n’ebivudde mu ssogolero.
“Na wɔbɛfa no sɛ deɛ ɛfiri mo ankasa mo ayuporobea ne mo nsakyibea hɔ.
31 Mmwe n’ab’omu maka gammwe munaayinzanga okubiriira wonna we munaayagalanga, kubanga eneebeeranga mpeera yammwe olw’omulimu gwe munaakolanga mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
Aaron ne ne mmammarima ne nʼabusuafoɔ bɛtumi adi no wɔ wɔn fie anaa baabiara a wɔpɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛyɛ wɔn adwuma a wɔyɛ no wɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan mu no ho akatua.
32 Bwe munaawangayo ebisingira ddala obulungi, tewaabengawo musango gwonna gwe munaabanga muzzizza; bwe mutyo ebiweebwayo ebitukuvu eby’abaana ba Isirayiri munaabanga temubivumisizza, muleme okufa.’”
Mo Lewifoɔ no, sɛ mogye Awurade ntotosoɔ dudu no na mode emu nkyɛmu edu a ɛsɔ ani mu baako ma asɔfoɔ no a, monni afɔbuo biara. Nanso, monhwɛ yie na akyɛdeɛ kronkron a Israelfoɔ de aba no, moammu no ade teta bi. Sɛ moyɛ saa a, mobɛwuwu.”
