1 Isirayiri bwe yali mu Sitimu, abasajja ne batandika okwenda n’abakazi ba Mowaabu,

2 abaabayitanga ku kuwaayo ebiweebwayo eri bakatonda baabwe. Abaana ba Isirayiri ne balya era ne bavuunamira bakatonda abo.

3 Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’ayingirira eby’okusinzanga Baali ow’e Peoli. Obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubabuubuukirako.

4 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Kwata abakulembeze b’abantu bano obatte, obaanike mu maaso ga Mukama abantu bonna we babalabira, obusungu bwa Mukama bulyoke bukkakkane buve ku Isirayiri.”

5 Musa n’agamba abalamuzi ba Isirayiri nti, “Buli omu ku mmwe atte abo abali mu mmwe abeegasse mu kusinza Baali ow’e Peoli.”

6 Kale, laba, omusajja omu ku baana ba Isirayiri n’aleeta mu maka ge omukazi Omumidiyaani awo mu maaso ga Musa, nga n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri bali awo bakaabira mu mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.

7 Naye Finekaasi mutabani wa Eriyazaali, mutabani wa Alooni kabona, bwe yakiraba, n’asituka mu kibiina n’akwata effumu mu mukono gwe

8 n’agoberera Omuyisirayiri n’amutuusa mu weema. Bombi n’abafumita effumu ne liyita mu Muyisirayiri ne liggukira ne mu mubiri gw’omukazi, ne libayitamu bombi. Awo kawumpuli eyali alumbye abaana ba Isirayiri n’akoma.

9 N’abo abaafa kawumpuli baawera emitwalo ebiri mu enkumi nnya.

10 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,

11 “Finekaasi mutabani wa Eriyazaali, mutabani wa Alooni kabona, ankyusisizza obusungu bwange ne mbuggya ku baana ba Isirayiri; kubanga obusungu bwe bwabuubuuka nnyo ng’obwange olw’obutafaayo ku kitiibwa kyange, kyenvudde sibazikiriza kubamalawo.

12 Noolwekyo mutegeeze nti, ‘Laba nkola naye endagaano ey’emirembe.

13 Ye, ne bazzukulu be bonna banaabanga mu ndagaano ey’obwakabona obw’emirembe gyonna, kubanga yasunguwalira abaana ba Isirayiri olw’okutyoboola ekitiibwa kya Katonda we, n’abatangiririra.’”

14 Omusajja Omuyisirayiri eyattirwa awamu n’omukazi Omumidiyaani yali Zimuli mutabani wa Salu eyali omukulembeze mu kika kya Simyoni.

15 N’erinnya ly’omukazi Omumidiyaani eyattibwa nga ye Kozebi muwala wa Zuuli, eyali omukulembeze mu kimu ku bika bya Midiyaani.

16 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,

17 “Abamidiyaani obayigganyanga n’obatta,

18 kubanga baayagala okubazikiriza n’enkwe zaabwe bwe baabakyamya e Peoli, n’olwa Kozebi muwala w’omukulembeze w’e Midiyaani, omukazi oyo eyattibwa ku lunaku okwajjira kawumpuli olw’ebyo ebyali e Peoli.”
