1 UKora indodana kaIzihari indodana kaKohathi indodana kaLevi, loDathani loAbiramu amadodana kaEliyabi, loOni indodana kaPelethi, amadodana kaRubeni, basebethatha amadoda.
Lwali lumu, Koola mutabani wa Izukali, mutabani wa Kokasi, mutabani wa Leevi, ne bano abava mu Lewubeeni, Dasani ne Abiraamu batabani ba Eriyaabu, awamu ne Oni mutabani wa Peresi, bonna ne beewaggula
2 Basebesukuma phambi kukaMozisi, lamadoda abantwana bakoIsrayeli, abangamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu, abangabakhokheli benhlangano, abakhethiweyo bomhlangano, amadoda alebizo.
ne basituka ne boolekera Musa. Baali ne bannaabwe abasajja Abayisirayiri ebikumi bibiri mu ataano, abaali abamanyifu ennyo mu baana ba Isirayiri era nga bakiise mu Lukiiko Olukulu.
3 Bahlangana bamelana loMozisi bamelana loAroni, bathi kubo: Seledlulise amalawulo! Ngoba inhlangano yonke, bonke bangcwele, leNkosi iphakathi kwabo. Pho, liziphakamiselani phezu kwebandla leNkosi?
Ne bajjira wamu nga beekobaanye okwolekera Musa ne Alooni ne babagamba nti, “Mwekulumbaza nnyo! Ekibiina kyonna, buli omu mu kyo mutukuvu, ne Mukama Katonda ali nabo. Kale, lwaki mwekulumbaliza ku kibiina ky’abantu ba Mukama?”
4 Kwathi uMozisi esekuzwile, wathi mbo ngobuso bakhe phansi.
Musa bwe yakiwulira n’avuunama wansi.
5 Wasekhuluma kuKora lakuqembu lakhe lonke esithi: Kusisa, khona iNkosi izatshengisa ukuthi ngubani ongowayo lokuthi ngubani ongcwele, izamsondeza kuyo, lalowo emkhethileyo izamsondeza kuyo.
N’alyoka agamba Koola ne bonna abaali naye nti, “Enkya Mukama Katonda anaalondamu ababe, n’oyo omutukuvu, era anaasembeza omuntu oyo gy’ali. Oyo gw’anaalonda gw’anaasembeza gy’ali.
6 Yenzani lokhu: Zithatheleni imiganu yokutshisela impepha, uKora, leqembu lakhe lonke,
Gwe Koola n’abagoberezi bo bonna mukole bwe muti: Muddire ebyoterezo,
7 lifake kiyo umlilo, libeke kiyo impepha phambi kweNkosi kusasa. Kuzakuthi indoda iNkosi eyikhethayo, yiyo engcwele. Seledlulise amalawulo, madodana kaLevi!
enkya mubiteekemu omuliro n’obubaane awali Mukama, oyo Mukama Katonda gw’anaalondamu, nga ye mutukuvu. Mmwe batabani ba Leevi mwekulumbazizza nnyo!”
8 UMozisi wasesithi kuKora: Ake lizwe, madodana kaLevi;
Musa n’agamba Koola nti, “Muwulirize, mmwe batabani ba Leevi!
9 kuyinto encinyane kini yini ukuthi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli ulehlukanisile lenhlangano yakoIsrayeli ukuze alisondeze kuye ukuthi lenze inkonzo yethabhanekele leNkosi, lokuthi lime phambi kwenhlangano ukubakhonza?
Mukiraba nga kitono nnyo tekibamala, Katonda wa Isirayiri okubaawulako n’abaggya ku kibiina ekinene eky’abaana ba Isirayiri n’abasembeza w’abeera okukolanga omulimu gwa Mukama mu Weema ya Mukama, n’okuyimiriranga mu maaso g’ekibiina n’okubaweereza?
10 Ukusondezile, labafowenu bonke, amadodana kaLevi, kanye lawe; selifuna lobupristi yini?
Mmwe ne Baleevi bannammwe Mukama Katonda yabasembeza gy’ali, kaakano mwagala n’obwakabona nabwo mubulye?
11 Ngalokho wena leqembu lakho lonke selihlangene ukumelana leNkosi. Ngoba uAroni uyini ukuthi limngungunele?
Noolwekyo mmwe n’abagoberezi bammwe, mwesimbye ku Mukama Katonda, era gwe mwolekedde. Kale Alooni naye ye ani, mmwe okumwemulugunyiza?”
12 UMozisi wasethuma ukubiza uDathani loAbiramu, amadodana kaEliyabi. Kodwa bathi: Kasiyikwenyuka;
Awo Musa n’atumya Dasani ne Abiraamu batabani ba Eriyaabu bayitibwe bajje. Naye ne bagamba nti, “Tetujja kujja!
13 kuyinto encinyane yini ukuthi wasenyusa sivela elizweni eligeleza uchago loluju ukusibulala enkangala, kanti lawe usuzenza umbusi phezu kwethu?
Eky’okutuggya mu nsi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki okututtira mu ddungu, kyali kitono nga tekimala? Ne kaakano oyagala okutwefuulirako omulangira otufuge?
14 Futhi kawusingenisanga elizweni eligeleza uchago loluju, loba ukusinika ilifa lamasimu lezivini. Amehlo ala amadoda ungawakopola yini? Asiyikwenyuka.
Ng’ebyo bikyali awo, totuleese mu nsi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki, wadde okutusikiza amasamba n’ennimiro z’emizabbibu. Abasajja bano oyagala obasibe kantuntunu ku maaso obalimberimbe? Nedda, tetujja kujja.”
15 UMozisi wasethukuthela kakhulu, wathi eNkosini: Unganaki umnikelo wabo. Kangithathanga ubabhemi oyedwa wabo, futhi kangenzanga okubi komunye wabo.
Awo Musa n’asunguwala nnyo n’agamba Mukama Katonda nti, “Ekiweebwayo kyabwe tokikkiriza. Tewaliiwo gwe nnali ntutteko wadde akalogoyi akamu, so tewali n’omu ku bo gwe nnali mpisizza obubi.”
16 UMozisi wasesithi kuKora: Wena leqembu lakho lonke banini phambi kweNkosi, wena, labo, loAroni, kusasa;
Musa n’agamba Koola nti, “Ggwe n’abo bonna abakugoberera, enkya mujje awali Mukama Katonda, ggwe nabo ne Alooni.
17 thathani, omunye lomunye umganu wakhe wokutshisela impepha, lifake kuyo impepha, liyisondeze phambi kweNkosi, kube ngulowo lalowo umganu wakhe wokutshisela impepha, imiganu yokutshisela impepha engamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu; lawe loAroni, ngulowo lalowo umganu wakhe wokutshisela impepha.
Buli musajja ajje n’ekyoterezo kye akiteekemu obubaane, ebyoterezo bijja kuwera ebikumi bibiri mu ataano, mubireete awali Mukama. Ggwe ne Alooni nammwe mujja kuleeta ebyoterezo byammwe.”
18 Basebethatha, ngulowo lalowo umganu wakhe wokutshisela impepha, bafaka umlilo kuyo, babeka impepha kuyo, bema emnyango wethente lenhlangano, loMozisi loAroni.
Awo buli musajja n’addira ekyoterezo kye n’akissaamu obubaane n’omuliro, bonna ne bayimirira ne Musa ne Alooni ku mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
19 UKora wasebuthanisa inhlangano yonke ukumelana labo emnyango wethente lenhlangano. Inkazimulo yeNkosi yasibonakala ebandleni lonke.
Koola bwe yamala okukuŋŋaanya abagoberezi be abavuganya, ku mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, ekitiibwa kya Mukama Katonda ne kyeraga eri ekibiina kyonna ekyali kikuŋŋaanye.
20 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi lakuAroni isithi:
Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti,
21 Zehlukaniseni liphume phakathi kwalinhlangano ukuze ngibaqede ngokucwayiza kwelihlo.
“Mweyawuleko muve mu kibiina kino ndyoke nkizikirize embagirawo.”
22 Basebesithi mbo ngobuso babo phansi bathi: Nkulunkulu, Nkulunkulu wemimoya yayo yonke inyama, kona umuntu oyedwa, ubusuthukuthelela inhlangano yonke yini?
Naye Musa ne Alooni ne bavuunama amaaso gaabwe wansi ne bagamba nti, “Ayi Katonda, Katonda ow’emyoyo egy’abantu bonna, omuntu omu bw’ayonoona, osunguwalira ekibiina kyonna?”
23 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
24 Tshono enhlanganweni uthi: Yenyukani lisuke kunhlangothi zonke zomuzi kaKora, uDathani, loAbiramu.
“Muve okumpi n’eweema eza Koola ne Dasani ne Abiraamu.”
25 UMozisi wasesukuma, waya kuDathani loAbiramu, labadala bakoIsrayeli bamlandela.
Awo Musa n’asituka n’agenda eri Dasani ne Abiraamu, n’abakulembeze ba Isirayiri ne bagenda naye nga bamugoberera.
26 Wasekhuluma enhlanganweni esithi: Ake lisuke emathenteni alamadoda amabi, lingathinti lutho olungolwabo, hlezi liphetshulwe ezonweni zabo zonke.
N’agamba ekibiina kyonna nti, “Musembereeyo muve okumpi n’eweema z’abasajja bano abakozi b’ebibi! Temukwata ku kintu kyabwe n’ekimu, sikulwa nga mwenna muzikirizibwa olw’ebibi byabwe.”
27 Basebesenyuka besuka emzini yaboKora, uDathani loAbiramu enhlangothini zonke; oDathani loAbiramu basebephuma, bema emnyango wamathente abo labomkabo lamadodana abo labantwanyana babo.
Bwe batyo ne basemberayo ne bava okumpi n’eweema za Koola, ne Dasani, ne Abiraamu. Dasani ne Abiraamu baali nga bafulumye mu weema zaabwe nga bayimiridde mu miryango gyazo, nga bali ne bakazi baabwe, ne batabani baabwe, n’obwana bwabwe obuto.
28 UMozisi wasesithi: Ngalokhu lizakwazi ukuthi iNkosi ingithumile ukwenza yonke limisebenzi, lokuthi kakusikho okwengqondo yami.
Awo Musa n’agamba nti, “Ku kino kwe munaategeerera nga Mukama Katonda y’antumye okukola ebintu bino byonna so tekubadde kutetenkanya kwange.
29 Uba laba besifa njengokufa kwabantu bonke, kumbe behlelwe njengokwehlelwa kwabantu bonke, iNkosi kayingithumanga.
Singa abasajja bano bafa olumbe olwa bulijjo, oba kugwibwako ebyo ebya bulijjo ebigwa ku bantu bonna, kinaaba kitegeeza nti Mukama si y’antumye.
30 Kodwa uba iNkosi idala into entsha, ukuthi umhlaba uvule umlomo wawo, ubaginye lakho konke okwabo, behlele emgodini bephila, lizaqedisisa ukuthi lamadoda ayidelele iNkosi. (Sheol )
Naye singa Mukama Katonda aleetawo ekintu ekiggya ddala ekitali kya bulijjo, ensi n’eyasamya akamwa kaayo n’ebamira nga balamu n’ebintu byabwe byonna, ne bagwa wansi mu gunnya oguwanvu, kale nno munaategeera ng’abasajja abo banyoomodde Mukama Katonda.” (Sheol )
31 Kwasekusithi eseqedile ukukhuluma wonke la amazwi, umhlaba owawungaphansi kwabo waqhekezeka,
Awo bwe yali nga yakamala okwogera ebigambo ebyo, ettaka bali kwe baali bayimiridde ne lyabikamu wabiri,
32 lomhlaba wavula umlomo wawo, wabaginya lezindlu zabo, labo bonke abantu ababengabakaKora, lempahla yabo yonke.
ensi n’eyasamya akamwa kaayo n’ebamira n’ebintu byabwe byonna eby’omu maka gaabwe, ne basajja ba Koola bonna n’ebintu byabwe byonna.
33 Basebetshona emgodini bephila bona lakho konke okwabo; umhlaba wabagqibela, babhubha besuka phakathi kwebandla. (Sheol )
Baagwayo wansi mu gunnya nga balamu, n’ebintu byabwe byonna bye baalina; ensi n’ebabuutikira, ne basaanirawo ddala okuva mu bannaabwe. (Sheol )
34 UIsrayeli wonke owayebazingelezele wasebaleka ekukhaleni kwabo, ngoba bathi: Hlezi umhlaba usiginye.
Abayisirayiri bonna abaaliwo bwe baabawulira nga bakaaba ne badduka nga bwe bagamba nti, “Si kulwa nga naffe ensi etumira!”
35 Kwasekuphuma umlilo eNkosini, waqothula amadoda angamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu ayenikele impepha.
Olwo omuliro ne gujja nga guva eri Mukama ne gwokera ddala abasajja ebikumi ebibiri mu ataano abaali bawaayo ekiweebwayo eky’obubaane.
36 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
37 Tshono kuEleyazare, indodana kaAroni umpristi, ukuthi athathe imiganu yokutshisela impepha phakathi kokutsha; uwuchithachithele umlilo laphayana, ngoba ingcwele.
“Gamba Eriyazaali mutabani wa Alooni kabona aggye ebyoterezo mu muliro, kubanga bitukuvu, amanda ag’omuliro agasaasaanyize wala.
38 Imiganu yokutshisela impepha yalezizoni imelene lemiphefumulo yazo, kabayenze ibe yizicecedu ezibanzi zibe yisisibekelo selathi; ngoba bayinikele phambi kweNkosi, ngakho ingcwele; njalo izakuba yisibonakaliso ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli.
Ebyoterezo ebyo bya basajja abaayonoona era n’okufa ne bafa; noolwekyo biweesebwemu amasowaane gakozesebwenga ng’ebibikka ku kyoto kubanga baabiwaayo eri Mukama Katonda; noolwekyo bitukuvu. Kale binaabanga kabonero ka kijjukizo eri abaana ba Isirayiri.”
39 UEleyazare umpristi wasethatha imiganu yethusi yokutshisela impepha ababenikele ngayo abatshisiweyo, basebeyikhanda yaba yizicecedu zokusibekela ilathi,
Bw’atyo Eriyazaali kabona n’addira ebyoterezo eby’ekikomo, ebyali biweereddwayo bali abaayokebwa, ne biweesebwamu ebibikka ku kyoto,
40 kube yisikhumbuzo ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli ukuze kungabi lowemzini, ongesuye owenzalo kaAroni, osondela ukutshisa impepha phambi kweNkosi, ukuze angabi njengoKora lanjengexuku lakhe, njengoba iNkosi yakhuluma kuye ngesandla sikaMozisi.
kiyambe abaana ba Isirayiri okujjukiranga nti omuntu atali kabona, atava mu lulyo lwa Alooni, taasemberenga kumpi na kyoto okunyookeza obubaane eri Mukama, si kulwa ng’afuuka nga Koola n’ekibiina kye. Eriyazaali bw’atyo bwe yabikola byonna ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama Katonda bwe kyali kye yayisa mu Musa.
41 Kodwa kusisa inhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli yabasola oMozisi loAroni, isithi: Lina libabulele abantu beNkosi.
Naye enkeera ekibiina kyonna eby’abaana ba Isirayiri ne beemulugunyiza Musa ne Alooni, nga bagamba nti, “Musse abantu ba Mukama Katonda.”
42 Kwasekusithi inhlangano isihlangene imelene loMozisi njalo imelene loAroni, baphendukela ethenteni lenhlangano, khangela-ke iyezi lalilisibekele lenkazimulo yeNkosi yabonakala.
Kyokka ekibiina ky’abantu bwe baakuŋŋaana okusoomooza Musa ne Alooni ne bakyuka okwolekera Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, amangwago ekire ne kigibikka n’ekitiibwa kya Mukama Katonda ne kyeyoleka.
43 UMozisi loAroni basebesiza ngaphambi kwethente lenhlangano.
Musa ne Alooni ne balaga ku mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu,
44 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
45 Yenyukani lisuke phakathi kwalinhlangano, ukuze ngibaqede njengokucwayiza kwelihlo. Basebesithi mbo ngobuso babo phansi.
“Muve mu bantu bano ndyoke mbazikirize embagirawo.” Ne bavuunama wansi.
46 UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni: Thatha umganu wokutshisela impepha, ufake kuwo umlilo ovela elathini, ubeke kuwo impepha, uye ngokuphangisa enhlanganweni, ubenzele inhlawulo yokuthula; ngoba ulaka seluphumile lusuka phambi kweNkosi, inhlupheko isiqalisile.
Awo Musa n’agamba Alooni nti, “Ddira ekyoterezo kyo okisseemu obubaane, n’omuliro ng’oguggya mu kyoto kya Mukama, oyanguwe ogende mu kibiina obatangiririre. Kubanga obusungu bubuubuuse okuva eri Mukama Katonda era kawumpuli atandise.”
47 UAroni wasekuthatha njengokutsho kukaMozisi, wagijimela phakathi kwebandla, khangela-ke, inhlupheko yayisiqalisile phakathi kwabantu. Wafaka impepha, wabenzela abantu inhlawulo yokuthula.
Alooni n’akola nga Musa bwe yamulagira, n’adduka n’agenda wakati mu kibiina. Yasanga kawumpuli yatandise dda mu bantu, naye Alooni n’awaayo eri Mukama Katonda obubaane okubatangiririra;
48 Wasesima phakathi kwabafileyo labaphilayo. Inhlupheko yasimiswa.
n’ayimirira wakati w’abafu n’abalamu, kawumpuli n’aziyizibwa.
49 Labafayo enhluphekweni babeyizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lane lamakhulu ayisikhombisa, ngaphandle kwalabo abafa ngendaba kaKora.
Bwe kityo abantu abaafa kawumpuli baawera omutwalo gumu mu enkumi nnya mu lusanvu, nga bali abaafa olw’emitawaana gya Koola tobataddeeko.
50 UAroni wasebuyela kuMozisi emnyango wethente lenhlangano; lenhlupheko yayisimisiwe.
Alooni n’akomawo eri Musa mu mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, nga kawumpuli amaze okuziyizibwa.
