Okubala 26

1 Awo oluvannyuma lwa kawumpuli, Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa ne Eriyazaali, mutabani wa Alooni, kabona, nti,

It came about after the plague that Yahweh spoke to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron the priest. He said,

2 “Bala omuwendo gw’abantu bonna abali mu kibiina ky’abaana ba Isirayiri, ng’obabala mu bika byabwe ne mu mayumba ga bakadde baabwe. Bala abasajja bonna abawezezza emyaka amakumi abiri n’okusingawo abakyasobola okutabaala mu ggye lya Isirayiri.”

“Count all the community of the people of Israel, from twenty years old and up, by their ancestor's families, all who are able to go to war for Israel.”

3 Bwe batyo, nga bali mu nsenyi za Mowaabu, ku ludda lw’omugga Yoludaani okwolekera Yeriko, Musa ne Eriyazaali kabona, ne boogera ne bagamba abantu nti,

4 “Mubale abasajja bonna abawezezza emyaka amakumi abiri n’okusingawo, nga Mukama Katonda bwe yalagira Musa.” Bano be baana ba Isirayiri abaava mu nsi y’e Misiri:

Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,

53 “Ensi ejja kubagabanyizibwamu okubeera obutaka bwabwe ng’obungi bw’amannya gaabwe bwe buli.

“The land must be divided among these men as an inheritance according to the number of their names.

54 Ekibiina ekinene kinaafuna wanene, n’ekibiina ekitono kinaafuna watono. Buli kibiina kinaafuna obunene nga obungi bw’amannya agali ku lukalala bwe genkana obungi.

To the larger clans you must give more inheritance, and to the smaller clans you must give less inheritance. To every family you must give an inheritance according to the number of men who were counted.

55 Weegendereze okukakasa ng’ensi egabanyizibbwa mu bwenkanya. Ekika, ekitundu kye kinaafuna kineesigama ku bungi bw’amannya ga bajjajja b’ekika ekyo.

However, the land must be divided by random lots. They must inherit the land as it will be divided among their ancestors' tribes.

56 Ebitundu ebinene binaagabanyizibwa ku kalulu, era n’ebitundu ebitono nabyo bwe bityo.”

Their inheritance must be divided among the larger and the smaller clans, distributed to them by random lot.”

The males who were counted among them numbered twenty-three thousand, all males one month old and up. But they were not counted among Israel's descendants because no inheritance was given to them among the people of Israel.

63 Abo be baabalibwa Musa ne Eriyazaali kabona lwe baabala abaana ba Isirayiri mu nsenyi za Mowaabu ku mugga Yoludaani okwolekera Yeriko.

These are the ones who were counted by Moses and Eleazar the priest. They counted the people of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.

64 Naye mu bano abaabalibwa temwalimu musajja n’omu ku abo abaali babaliddwa Musa ne Alooni kabona bwe baabala abaana ba Isirayiri mu Ddungu lya Sinaayi.

But among these there was no man who had been counted by Moses and Aaron the priest when the descendants of Israel were counted in the wilderness of Sinai.

65 Kubanga Mukama Katonda yali agambye abaana ba Isirayiri abo nti awatali kubuusabuusa bonna bagenda kufiira mu ddungu. Era tewali n’omu eyasigalawo nga mulamu okuggyako Kalebu mutabani wa Yefune, ne Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni.

For Yahweh had said that all of those people would certainly die in the wilderness. There was not a man left among them, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
