Amanani 32
1 Mayelana labantwana bakoRubeni labantwana bakoGadi, babelenkomo ezinengi, ezinengi kakhulu. Sebebone ilizwe leJazeri lelizwe leGileyadi, khangela-ke, indawo yayiyindawo yenkomo.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni ne batabani ba Gaadi baalina amagana g’ente n’ebisibo by’endiga; ebisolo byabwe nga bingi nnyo. Baatunuulira ensi ya Yazeri n’ensi ya Gireyaadi, ne balaba ng’ekitundu ekyo kituufu okulundiramu ebisolo byabwe.
2 Ngakho abantwana bakoGadi labantwana bakoRubeni beza bakhuluma kuMozisi lakuEleyazare umpristi lakuziphathamandla zenhlangano, besithi:
Ne bajja awali Musa ne Eriyazaali kabona, n’eri abakulembeze b’ekibiina ne babagamba nti,
3 IAtarothi leDiboni leJazeri leNimra leHeshiboni leEleyale leSebamu leNebo leBeyoni,
“Ebitundu bino: Atalisi, ne Diboni, ne Yazeri, ne Nimula, ne Kesuboni, ne Ereyale, ne Sebamu, ne Nebo ne Beoni,
4 ilizwe iNkosi eyalitshayayo phambi kwenhlangano yakoIsrayeli, liyilizwe lezinkomo; futhi izinceku zenu zilezinkomo.
bye bitundu by’ensi Mukama Katonda gye yawangulira mu maaso g’abaana ba Isirayiri, nsi nnungi okulundiramu; ate ng’abaweereza bammwe tulina ebisolo byaffe bingi.”
5 Basebesithi: Nxa sithole umusa emehlweni akho, ilizwe leli kaliphiwe inceku zakho libe yimfuyo; ungasichaphisi iJordani.
Ne bagamba nti, “Bwe kuba nga kwe kusiima kwammwe, mukkirize ebitundu by’ensi bino bituweebwe, ffe abaweereza bammwe, bibeere obutaka bwaffe. Temutusomosa Yoludaani.”
6 UMozisi wasesithi ebantwaneni bakoGadi lebantwaneni bakoRubeni: Abafowenu bazakuya empini, lina-ke lihlale lapha yini?
Musa n’agamba batabani ba Gaadi ne batabani ba Lewubeeni nti, “Mwagala baganda bammwe bagende batabaale, nga mmwe mwetuulidde wano?
7 Njalo lizadaniselani inhliziyo yabantwana bakoIsrayeli ukuze bangachaphi ukuya elizweni iNkosi ebanike lona?
Lwaki abaana ba Isirayiri mwagala okubamalamu amaanyi mu mitima gyabwe mubalemese okuyingira mu nsi Mukama Katonda gy’abawadde?
8 Benza njalo oyihlo mhla ngibathuma besuka eKadeshi-Bhaneya ukubona ilizwe.
Ne bakadde bammwe bwe baakola bwe nabatuma okuva e Kadesubanea okuketta ensi.
9 Ekuhambeni kwabo ukuya esihotsheni seEshikoli, balibona ilizwe, badanisa inhliziyo yabantwana bakoIsrayeli ukuze bangangeni elizweni iNkosi eyayibanike lona.
Kubanga bwe baayambuka mu Kiwonvu ekya Esukoli, ensi ne bagiraba, ne bayeengebula emitima gy’abaana ba Isirayiri baleme okugenda okuyingira mu nsi Mukama Katonda gye yali abawadde.
10 Ulaka lweNkosi lwaseluvutha ngalolusuku, yasifunga isithi:
Obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubuubuuka ku lunaku olwo, n’alayira nti,
11 Isibili kakho kumadoda enyuka esuka eGibhithe, kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili langaphezulu ozalibona ilizwe engalifungela uAbrahama, uIsaka loJakobe, ngoba kabangilandelanga ngokupheleleyo;
‘Olw’okubanga tebaŋŋondedde n’omutima gwabwe gwonna, tewalibaawo n’omu ku basajja ab’emyaka okuva ku myaka makumi abiri okweyongerayo egy’obukulu, abaasimbuka okuva mu Misiri, aliraba ku nsi gye nalayira okuwa Ibulayimu ne Isaaka ne Yakobo;
12 ngaphandle kukaKalebi indodana kaJefune umKenizi, loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, ngoba balandele iNkosi ngokupheleleyo.
tewalibaawo n’omu okuggyako Kalebu mutabani wa Yefune Omukenizi, ne Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni, kubanga abo baagondera Mukama Katonda n’omutima gwabwe gwonna.’
13 Lolaka lweNkosi lwamvuthela uIsrayeli, yasibazulisa enkangala iminyaka engamatshumi amane, kwaze kwaphela isizukulwana sonke esasenze okubi emehlweni eNkosi.
Obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda ne bubuubuukira Isirayiri, n’abatambuliza mu ddungu okumala emyaka amakumi ana, okutuusa omulembe gw’abo abaasobya mu maaso ga Mukama lwe gwaggweerera.
14 Khangelani-ke, selivukile esikhundleni saboyihlo, inzalo yabantu abonayo, ukwandisa futhi intukuthelo yeNkosi evuthela uIsrayeli.
“Kale nno mmwe muli bazzukulu baabwe, batabani b’abakozi b’ebibi, nga mwongera okunakuwaza Mukama Katonda anyiigire Isirayiri!
15 Uba liphenduka ekuyilandeleni, izaphinda njalo ibatshiye enkangala; njalo lizabhubhisa bonke lababantu.
Kubanga singa mumukuba amabega ne mutakola by’ayagala ne mutamugoberera, abantu be ajja kwongera okubeesammulako, nate abaleke mu ddungu omulundi ogwokubiri, era bwe balizikirira mwe mulibaako obuvunaanyizibwa obwo.”
16 Basebesondela kuye bathi: Sizakwakha lapha izibaya zezifuyo zethu, lemizi yabantwanyana bethu;
Ne bamusemberera ne bamuddamu nti, “Twagala tuzimbe wano ebiraalo eby’ebisibo by’ebisolo byaffe, tuzimbe n’ebigo eby’abaana baffe abato.
17 kodwa thina sizahloma silungile phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, size sibafikise endaweni yabo, labantwanyana bethu bazahlala emizini evikelekileyo, ngenxa yabahlali belizwe.
Naye ffe tubagalire ebyokulwanyisa, tukulembere abaana ba Isirayiri tubatuuse mu bifo byabwe. Olwo abaana baffe abato balisigala mu bibuga bye tuzimbyeko ebigo ebinywevu, kubanga mu nsi muno mulimu abantu baamu.
18 Kasiyikubuyela emizini yethu, abantwana bakoIsrayeli baze badle, ngulowo lalowo ilifa lakhe.
Tetugenda kudda mu maka gaffe okutuusa ng’abaana ba Isirayiri buli omu amaze okuweebwa obutaka bwe.
19 Ngoba kasiyikudla ilifa kanye labo ngaphetsheya kweJordani langaphambili, ngoba ilifa lethu selehlele kithi nganeno kweJordani empumalanga.
Ffe tetugenda kugabana nabo ku butaka obwo obuli emitala wa Yoludaani n’okweyongerayo; kubanga obutaka bwaffe tuliba tubufunye ku ludda luno olwa Buvanjuba bwa Yoludaani.”
20 UMozisi wasesithi kubo: Nxa lisenza linto, nxa lizahamba lihlomele impi phambi kweNkosi,
Awo Musa n’abagamba nti, “Bwe munaakola bwe mutyo, ne mukwata ebyokulwanyisa mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda nga mwetegekedde olutalo,
21 beselichapha iJordani, wonke ohlomileyo kini, phambi kweNkosi, ize ixotshe izitha zayo phambi kwayo,
ne musomoka Yoludaani n’ebyokulwanyisa byammwe mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, okutuusa ng’agobye abalabe be mu maaso ge,
22 lelizwe lehliselwe phansi phambi kweNkosi, khona emva kwalokho lizabuya, lingabi lacala eNkosini lakuIsrayeli; lalelilizwe lizakuba yilifa lenu phambi kweNkosi.
n’ensi ng’ewanguddwa mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, olwo muliyinza okukomawo nga temuliiko kya kuvunaanyizibwa eri Mukama n’eri Isirayiri. Ekitundu ky’ensi kino ne kibeera omugabo gwammwe mu maaso ga Mukama.
23 Kodwa nxa lingenzi njalo, khangelani lizabe lonile eNkosini; ngakho yazini ukuthi isono senu sizalithola.
“Naye bwe mutalikola bwe mutyo, muliba musobezza nnyo awali Mukama Katonda, era mutegeerere ddala ng’ekibi kyammwe ekyo kiribayigga ne kibakwasa.
24 Zakheleni imizi yabantwanyana benu lezibaya zezimvu zenu, njalo yenzani lokho okuphume emlonyeni wenu.
Kale muzimbire abaana bammwe abato ebibuga eby’ebigo ebinywevu, n’ebisolo byammwe mubizimbire ebiraalo, era mukole n’ebyo bye musuubizza.”
25 Abantwana bakoGadi labantwana bakoRubeni basebekhuluma kuMozisi besithi: Izinceku zakho zizakwenza njengalokho inkosi yami ilaya.
Abaana ba Gaadi n’abaana ba Lewubeeni ne bagamba Musa nti, “Ffe abaweereza bo tujja kukola nga ggwe mukama waffe bw’otulagidde.
26 Abantwanyana bethu, omkethu, izimvu zethu, lazo zonke izifuyo zethu kuzakuba lapho emizini yeGileyadi;
Abaana baffe abato ne bakazi baffe, n’ebisibo byaffe eby’endiga n’ebiraalo byaffe eby’ente byonna bijja kusigala wano mu bibuga bya Gireyaadi.
27 kodwa inceku zakho zizachapha, ngulowo lalowo ehlomele impi, phambi kukaJehova empini, njengokutsho kwenkosi yami.
Naye abaweereza bo, buli musajja eyeewaddeyo okutabaala ajja kusomoka alwanire mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, nga ggwe mukama waffe bw’ogambye.”
28 UMozisi waselayezela ngabo kuEleyazare umpristi, loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, lenhloko zaboyise zezizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Awo Musa n’abawaako ebiragiro eri Eriyazaali kabona, n’eri Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni, n’eri abakulembeze b’empya ez’omu bika by’abaana ba Isirayiri.
29 UMozisi wasesithi kubo: Nxa abantwana bakoGadi labantwana bakoRubeni bechapha lani iJordani, wonke ehlomele impi, phambi kweNkosi, lelizwe lisehliselwa phansi phambi kwenu, khona lizabanika ilizwe leGileyadi libe yimfuyo.
Musa n’agamba nti, “Batabani ba Gaadi ne batabani ba Lewubeeni, buli musajja eyeetegese okutabaala mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda, bwe balisomoka nammwe Yoludaani, n’ensi eri mu maaso gammwe n’ewangulwa, kale mubawanga ensi ya Gireyaadi okubeera omugabo gw’obutaka bwabwe.
30 Kodwa uba bengachaphi lani behlomile, bazakuba lemfuyo phakathi kwenu elizweni leKhanani.
Naye bwe basomokanga nammwe nga tebalina byakulwanyisa, kale baligabanira wamu nammwe eby’obutaka bwabwe mu nsi ya Kanani.”
31 Abantwana bakoGadi labantwana bakoRubeni basebephendula besithi: Lokhu iNkosi esikutshilo kunceku zakho - sizakwenza njalo.
Batabani ba Gaadi ne batabani ba Lewubeeni ne baddamu nti, “Ffe abaweereza bo tujja kukola nga Mukama bw’atugambye.
32 Thina sizachapha sihlomile phambi kweNkosi siye elizweni leKhanani, ukuze imfuyo yelifa lethu ibe ngeyethu nganeno kweJordani.
Tujja kusomokera mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda tuyingire mu nsi ya Kanani nga twesibye ebyokulwanyisa, naye omugabo gwaffe ogw’obutaka bwaffe gujja kusigala ku ludda luno olwa Yoludaani.”
33 Njalo uMozisi wabanika, kubantwana bakoGadi lakubantwana bakoRubeni lakungxenye yesizwe sakoManase, indodana kaJosefa, umbuso kaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, lombuso kaOgi inkosi yeBashani, ilizwe lemizi yalo emingceleni, imizi yelizwe inhlangothi zonke.
Awo Musa n’abagabira, abaana ba Gaadi n’abaana ba Lewubeeni, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase mutabani wa Yusufu, obwakabaka bwa Sikoni kabaka w’Abamoli, n’obwakabaka bwa Ogi kabaka w’e Basani, n’abawa ensi n’ebibuga byamu, n’amatwale gaayo n’ebibuga byamu ebigyetoolodde.
34 Labantwana bakoGadi bakha iDiboni leAtarothi leAroweri
Batabani ba Gaadi ne bazimba ebibuga bino: Diboni, ne Atalosi, ne Aloweri,
35 leAtirothi-Shofani leJazeri leJogibeha,
ne Aterosi Sofani, ne Yazeri, ne Yogubeka;
36 leBeti-Nimra leBeti-Harani, imizi evikelweyo, lezibaya zezimvu.
ne Besu Nimira, ne Besu Kalaani, nga bye bibuga ebiriko ebigo ebinywevu, ne bakola n’ebisibo by’ebisolo byabwe.
37 Labantwana bakoRubeni bakha iHeshiboni leEleyale leKiriyathayimi
Batabani ba Lewubeeni ne bazimba ebibuga bino: Kesuboni, ne Ereyale, ne Kiriyasayimu,
38 leNebo leBhali-Meyoni (sekuguqulwe amabizo) leSibima; basebebiza amabizo emizi abayakhayo ngamanye amabizo.
ne Nebo, ne Baalu Myoni (amannya gaabyo gaakyusibwa), ne Sibima. Ebibuga bye baddaabiriza baabituuma amannya malala.
39 Labantwana bakoMakiri indodana kaManase baya eGileyadi, bayithumba, bawakhupha amaAmori emfuyweni yawo ayekuyo.
Abaana ba Makiri, mutabani wa Manase, ne bagenda e Gireyaadi, ensi eyo ne bagiwamba, ne bagobamu Abamoli abaagibeerangamu.
40 UMozisi wasenika uMakiri indodana kaManase iGileyadi, wasehlala kiyo.
Bw’atyo Musa n’awa Gireyaadi, Makiri mutabani wa Manase, n’atuula omwo.
41 LoJayiri indodana kaManase wayathumba imizana yayo, wayibiza ngokuthi yiHavothi-Jayiri.
Yayiri mutabani wa Manase n’agenda ne yeetwalira obubuga obutonotono, n’abutuuma Kavosu Yayiri.
42 LoNoba wayathumba iKenathi, lemizana yayo, wayibiza ngokuthi yiNoba ngebizo lakhe.
Ne Noba naye n’awamba Kenasi n’obwalo obukyetoolodde, n’akituuma Noba erinnya lye.
