Okubala 3
1 Luno lwe lulyo lwa Alooni n’olwa Musa mu biseera Mukama mwe yayogerera ne Musa ku Lusozi Sinaayi.
Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.
2 Gano ge mannya ga batabani ba Alooni: Nadabu, omubereberye, ne Abiku, ne Eriyazaali, ne Isamaali.
These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
3 Ago ge mannya ga batabani ba Alooni, abaafukibwako amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni okuba bakabona, era abaayawulibwa okuweereza mu mulimu gw’obwakabona.
These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.
4 Naye nno Nadabu ne Abiku baatondokera mu maaso ga Mukama ne bafa, kubanga baayokya ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda n’omuliro ogutakkirizibwa nga bali mu ddungu ly’e Sinaayi. Tebaalina baana; bwe batyo, Eriyazaali ne Isamaali ne basigala nga be bokka abaaweerezanga nga bakabona ebbanga lyonna kitaabwe Alooni lye yamala nga mulamu.
Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, when they offered strange fire before the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children. Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the presence of Aaron their father.
5 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
6 “Leeta ab’omu kika kya Leevi obakwase Alooni kabona bamuweerezenga.
"Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.
7 Banaamukoleranga emirimu era ne baweereza n’ekibiina kyonna awali Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, nga bakola emirimu awali Eweema ya Mukama.
They shall keep his requirements, and the requirements of the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.
8 Banaalabiriranga ebintu byonna eby’omu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, ne bakola emirimu gy’omu Weema ya Mukama nga batuukiriza ebyo byonna ebivunaanyizibwa abaana ba Isirayiri.
They shall keep all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting, and the obligations of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
9 Abaleevi onoobawanga eri Alooni ne batabani be; baweereddwa ddala Alooni nga baggyibwa mu baana ba Isirayiri.
You shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the children of Israel.
10 Onoolonda Alooni ne batabani be okubeera bakabona; naye bwe wanaabangawo omuntu omulala yenna n’asembera awatukuvu, anaafanga.”
And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall attend to their priesthood; but the unauthorized person who comes near shall be put to death."
11 Mukama Katonda n’ayongera okugamba Musa nti,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
12 “Laba, neetwalidde Abaleevi nga mbaggya mu baana ba Isirayiri mu kifo ky’abaana ababereberye abazaalibwa abakazi mu baana ba Isirayiri. Abaleevi banaabanga bange,
"Look, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine:
13 kubanga byonna ebizaalibwa ebibereberye byange. Bwe natta ebibereberye byonna mu nsi y’e Misiri neeyawulira ebibereberye byonna mu Isirayiri okubeeranga ebyange, abantu n’ebisolo. Nze Mukama Katonda.”
for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I made holy to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and animal. They shall be mine. I am the LORD."
14 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa mu ddungu ly’e Sinaayi nti,
The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
15 “Bala Abaleevi bonna mu mpya zaabwe ne mu bika byabwe. Bala buli mwana mulenzi ow’omwezi ogumu n’okusingawo.”
