Amanani 31
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
2 “Phindisela kumaMidiyani usenzela abako-Israyeli. Ngemva kwalokho, uzalandela okhokho bakho.”
“Rĩhĩria andũ a Isiraeli harĩ andũ a Midiani. Na thuutha ũcio nĩũgũcooka ũkue.”
3 Ngakho uMosi wathi ebantwini, “Hlomisani amanye amadoda aye empini ayekulwa lamaMidiyani kanye lokuphindisela kukaThixo kuwo.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akĩĩra andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Andũ amwe anyu nĩmeohe indo ciao cia mbaara mathiĩ makahũũrane na andũ a Midiani nĩguo marĩhĩrie Jehova kũrĩ o.
4 Thumelani amadoda ayinkulungwane avela esizwaneni ngasinye sako-Israyeli ukuyahlasela.”
Tũmai andũ 1,000 kuuma kũrĩ o mũhĩrĩga wa Isiraeli mbaara-inĩ.”
5 Ngakho amadoda azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili ahlomela ukuyahlasela, kuyinkulungwane yamadoda avela esizwaneni ngasinye, ebuthwe ngosendo lunye ngalunye kwabako-Israyeli.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ 12,000 meeohete indo cia mbaara, o 1,000 kuuma kũrĩ o mũhĩrĩga, makĩneanwo kuuma mĩhĩrĩga ya Isiraeli.
6 UMosi wabathumela ukuyahlasela, kuyinkulungwane evela esizwaneni ngasinye, kanye loFinehasi indodana ka-Eliyazari, umphristi, owathatha izitsha endlini engcwele kanye lamacilongo okubikelana.
Musa akĩmatũma mbaara-inĩ, o 1,000 kuuma harĩ o mũhĩrĩga, marĩ hamwe na Finehasi mũrũ wa Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa wakuuire indo cia handũ-harĩa-haamũre, o na tũrumbeta twa kũhuhwo.
7 Balwa lamaMidiyani, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo, babulala amadoda wonke.
Nao makĩhũũrana na andũ a Midiani o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa, na makĩũraga arũme othe.
8 Phakathi kwababulawayo kwakulamakhosi amahlanu amaMidiyani abalisa u-Evi, uRekhemu, uZuri, uHuri kanye loRebha. Babulala loBhalamu indodana kaBheyori ngenkemba.
Gatagatĩ ka arĩa mooragire nĩ Evi, na Rekemu, na Zuru, na Huri, na Reba, athamaki arĩa atano a Midiani. O na ningĩ nĩmooragire Balamu mũrũ wa Beori na rũhiũ rwa njora.
9 Abako-Israyeli bathumba abesifazane bamaMidiyani labantwana, basebethumba lemihlambi yenkomo zamaMidiyani, leyezimvu kanye lokubutha impahla njengempango.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩtaha andũ-a-nja a Midiani na ciana, na magĩkuua ndũũru ciothe cia andũ a Midiani cia ngʼombe na cia mbũri, na magĩtaha indo iria ingĩ ciothe.
10 Batshisa wonke amadolobho lapha okwakuhlala khona amaMidiyani, kanye lezihonqo zawo zonke.
Magĩcina matũũra mothe kũrĩa andũ a Midiani maatũũrĩte, o ũndũ ũmwe na kambĩ ciao.
11 Bathatha konke ababekubuthile lababekuthumbile, kuhlanganisa abantu lezifuyo,
Magĩkuua indo ciothe iria maatahĩte na iria maatunyanĩte hamwe na andũ na nyamũ,
12 njalo basebeletha abathunjwa, okuthunjiweyo lokubuthiweyo kuMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi kanye lebandleni lonke lako-Israyeli ezihonqweni zabo zasemagcekeni aseMowabi, ngaseJodani ngaphetsheya ukuvelela eJerikho.
na magĩtwara andũ arĩa matahĩtwo na indo icio maatunyanĩte, na iria maatahĩte kũrĩ Musa na kũrĩ Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai na kũrĩ kĩũngano kĩa andũ a Isiraeli kũu kambĩ yarĩ werũ-inĩ wa Moabi, hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mũrĩmo wa Jeriko.
13 UMosi, u-Eliyazari umphristi kanye labo bonke abakhokheli babantu baphuma ukuyabahlangabeza ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
Musa, na Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai na atongoria othe a kĩrĩndĩ magĩthiĩ kũmatũnga nja ya kambĩ.
14 UMosi wathukuthelela abalawuli bamabutho, ababelawula amaxuku ezinkulungwane lababelawula amaxuku angamakhulu, ababevela ekuhlaseleni.
Musa akĩrakarĩra anene a mbũtũ icio cia ita na atongoria a mbũtũ cia o ngiri, ngiri, na atongoria a mbũtũ cia o igana, igana, arĩa moimĩte mbaara-inĩ.
15 UMosi wababuza wathi, “Selivumele abesifazane ukuthi baphile na?
Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mwĩtĩkĩrĩtie andũ a nja othe matũũre muoyo?
16 Yibo ababelandela ukucebisa kukaBhalamu njalo bahugela abako-Israyeli ekungathembekini kuThixo kulokhu okwenzakala ePheyori, kwaze kwathi abantu bakaThixo behlelwa yisifo.
Acio nĩo maarũmĩrĩire mataaro ma Balamu, na nĩo maatũmire andũ a Isiraeli matirike Jehova ũhoro-inĩ ũrĩa wekĩkire kũu Peori, naguo ũndũ ũcio ũkĩrehithĩria andũ a Jehova mũthiro.
17 Khona khathesi bulalani abafana bonke. Njalo libulale wonke owesifazane oseke walala lendoda,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũragai tũhĩĩ tuothe. Na ningĩ mũũrage mũndũ-wa-nja wothe ũrĩ wakoma na mũndũ mũrũme,
18 kodwa lizigcinele loba yiphi intombazana engakaze ilale lendoda.
no mwĩhonokerie mũirĩtu o wothe ũrĩa ũtarĩ wakoma na mũndũ mũrũme.
19 Lina lonke elibulele loba ngubani loba lina elike lathinta loba ngubani obuleweyo lizahlala ngaphandle kwezihonqo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa. Ngosuku lwesithathu langosuku lwesikhombisa lizihlambulule lina kanye labathunjwa benu.
“Inyuothe arĩa mũũragĩte mũndũ o wothe kana mũkahutia mũndũ o wothe mũũrage no nginya mũikare nja ya kambĩ mĩthenya mũgwanja. Mũthenya wa ĩtatũ na wa mũgwanja, no nginya mwĩtherie inyuĩ ene na arĩa mũtahĩte.
20 Lihlambulule zonke izembatho kanye lakho konke okwenziwe ngesikhumba, uboya bembuzi loba okwezigodo.”
Theriai nguo ciothe, o ũndũ ũmwe na kĩndũ gĩothe gĩthondeketwo na rũũa, kana guoya wa mbũri kana mbaũ.”
21 Ngakho u-Eliyazari umphristi wathi kwabebutho ababeye empini, “Nanku okufaneleyo ngokomthetho owaphiwa uMosi nguThixo:
Ningĩ Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akĩĩra thigari iria ciathiĩte mbaara-inĩ atĩrĩ, “Watho ũrĩa Jehova aaheire Musa uugĩte atĩrĩ:
22 Igolide, isiliva, ithusi, insimbi, izenge lomnuso,
Thahabu, na betha, na gĩcango, na kĩgera, na ibati, na rũbũũa
23 kanye lakho konke okunye okungatshi kutshabalale emlilweni kumele kudlule emlilweni, ngalokho kuzabe sekuhlambulukile. Kodwa kumele njalo kube sekuhlanjululiwe ngamanzi okuhlambulula. Kanti njalo kuthi lakuphi okungeke kwamelana lomlilo kumele kudluliswe kulawomanzi.
na kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩngĩhota gwĩtiiria mwaki, no nginya kĩhĩtũkagĩrio mwaki-inĩ nĩgeetha gĩthirwo nĩ thaahu. No rĩrĩ, no nginya gĩcooke gĩtherio na maaĩ marĩa ma kũniina thaahu. Nakĩo kĩndũ gĩothe gĩtangĩĩtiiria mwaki no nginya kĩhĩtũkĩrio maaĩ-inĩ macio.
24 Ngosuku lwesikhombisa gezisani izigqoko zenu ukuze lihlambuluke. Ngemva kwalokho selingangena ezihonqweni.”
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja-rĩ, thambiai nguo cianyu na inyuĩ nĩ mũgaathirwo nĩ thaahu. Thuutha ũcio no mũtoonye kambĩ.”
25 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
26 “Wena kanye lo-Eliyazari umphristi kanye labazinhloko zezimuli zabantu lizabala abantu bonke lezinyamazana, konke okwathunjwayo.
“Wee na Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai na atongoria a nyũmba cia kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩ no nginya mũtare andũ othe na nyamũ iria ciatahirwo.
27 Yabelani amabutho ayesempini kanye labantu bonke impango ngokulinganayo.
Gayaniai indo cia iria ndahe gatagatĩ ga thigari iria ciathiĩte mbaara-inĩ na kĩrĩndĩ kĩrĩa kĩngĩ.
28 Emabuthweni alwayo empini, thathani okukodwa emakhulwini amahlanu kube yisabelo sikaThixo, kumbe ngabantu, inkomo, obabhemi, izimvu loba imbuzi.
Kuuma kũrĩ thigari iria ciarũire mbaara, rutai gĩcunjĩ kĩa Jehova, kĩndũ kĩmwe thĩinĩ wa indo magana matano, marĩ andũ, kana ngʼombe, kana ndigiri, kana ngʼondu, o na kana mbũri.
29 Thathani lesisabelo engxenyeni yesabo liyiphe u-Eliyazari umphristi ibe yingxenye kaThixo.
Oya gĩcunjĩ gĩkĩ kuuma harĩ nuthu ya igai rĩao mũkĩnengere Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai kĩrĩ gĩcunjĩ kĩa Jehova.
30 Kungxenye yabako-Israyeli, khethani okukodwa ematshumini amahlanu, phakathi kwabantu, inkomo, obabhemi, izimvu, imbuzi loba ezinye izifuyo. Zipheni abaLevi, bona abalomlandu wokunakekela ithabanikeli likaThixo.”
Kuuma kũrĩ nuthu ya gĩcunjĩ kĩa andũ a Isiraeli, thuura kĩndũ kĩmwe kuuma harĩ o gĩkundi kĩa mĩrongo ĩtano, kĩrĩ kĩa andũ, kana ngʼombe, kana ndigiri, kana ngʼondu, kana mbũri o na kana nyamũ ingĩ. Cinengere Alawii arĩa wĩra wao ũrĩ kũmenyerera Hema-ĩrĩa-Nyamũre ya Jehova.”
31 Ngakho uMosi lo-Eliyazari umphristi benza njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa na Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
32 Impango eyayisele kulokho okwathathwa ngamabutho kwakuyizimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu,

41 UMosi wanika u-Eliyazari umphristi isabelo sikaThixo, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
Musa akĩnengera Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai gĩcunjĩ kĩa Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
42 Ingxenye yesabelo sabako-Israyeli uMosi wayeseyehlukanise leyamabutho,

47 Engxenyeni yesabelo sabako-Israyeli, uMosi waqambula okukodwa ematshumini amahlanu abantu lasezifuyweni, njengokulaywa kwakhe nguThixo, njalo wakuqhubela abaLevi, bona ababelomlandu wokunakekela ithabanikeli likaThixo.
Kuuma kũrĩ nuthu ĩrĩa yaheirwo andũ a Isiraeli, Musa agĩthuura mũndũ ũmwe kuuma kũrĩ andũ mĩrongo ĩtano, na nyamũ ĩmwe kuuma kũrĩ nyamũ mĩrongo ĩtano, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte, na agĩcihe Alawii arĩa wĩra wao warĩ kũmenyerera Hema-ĩrĩa-Nyamũre ya Jehova.
