गन्ती 3

1 यो परमप्रभु सीनै पर्वतमाथि मोशासँग बोल्नुहुँदा हारून र मोशाका सन्तानहरूको इतिहास हो ।

Now these are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.

2 हारूनका छोराका नाउँहरू यिनै हुन्: जेठा नादाब, अबीहू, एलाजार र ईतामार थिए ।

These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

3 हारून पुजारीका छोराहरूका नाउँहरू यिनै हुन् जसलाई पुजारीको रूपमा अभिषेक गरिएको थियो र पुजारीको रूपमा सेवा गर्न नियुक्‍त गरिएका थिए ।

These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the cohanim who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister as cohanim.

4 तर नादाब र अबीहूले सीनै पर्वतमा अस्वीकार्य आगो परमप्रभुलाई चढाउँदा तिनीहरू उहाँको सामु मरे । नादाब र अबीहूका कुनै छोराछोरी थिएन । यसैले एलाजार र ईतामारले तिनीहरूका बुबा हारूनसँग पुजारीको रूपमा सेवा गरे ।

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 office of cohen in the presence of Aaron their father.

5 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

6 “लेवीको कुललाई ले र तिनीहरूले पुजारी हारूनलाई सहायता गर्नको निम्ति तिनीहरूलाई तिनीकहाँ प्रस्तुत गर् ।

"Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the cohen, that they may minister to him.

7 तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालको सामु हारून र सारा समुदायको तर्फबाट दायित्वहरू पुरा गर्नुपर्छ । तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानमा सेवा गर्नुपर्छ ।

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 तिनीहरूले भेट हुने पालका सबै सरसामानको हेरचाह गर्नुपर्छ र तिनीहरूले पवित्र वासस्थानको सेवा वहन गर्न इस्राएलका कुलहरूलाई सहायता गर्नुपर्छ ।

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 तैँले लेवीहरू हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई सेवा गर्न तिनलाई सहायता गर्न तिनीहरूलाई पूर्ण रूपमा सुम्पिएका छन् ।

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 तैँले हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई पुजारीको रूपमा नियुक्‍त गर्नुपर्छ र नजिक आउने कुनै पनि मानिसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।”

And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall attend to the duties of cohanim; but the unauthorized person who comes near shall be put to death."

11 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

12 “हेर्, मैले लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूबाट लिएको छु । मैले यो इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका जेठा छोराहरूको सट्टा लिएको छु । लेवीहरू मेरा हुन् ।

"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 पहिले जन्मेका सबै मेरा हुन् । मैले मिश्र देशमा पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई आक्रमण गरेको दिन नै इस्राएलका मानिस र पशुहरू दुवैको पहिले जन्मेका सबैलाई मेरो निम्ति अलग गरेँ । तिनीहरू मेरा हुन् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।”

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 परमप्रभुले सीनैको मरुभूमिमा मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,

15 “लेवीका हरेक कुल र परिवार-परिवारअनुसार गन्ती गर् । एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका सबै पुरुषको गन्ती गर् ।

"Count the descendants of Levi by their fathers' houses, by their families. You shall count every male from a month old and upward."

All who were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of the LORD, by their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty-two thousand.

40 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका सबै पहिले जन्मेका पुरुषहरूको गन्ती गर् । तिनीहरूका नाउँको सूची बना ।

The LORD said to Moses, "Number all the firstborn males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.

41 म परमप्रभु हुँ, तैँले मेरो निम्ति लेवीहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा र इस्राएलका सन्तानहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूका पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा लेवीहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूलाई लिनुपर्छ ।”

You shall take the Levites for me (I am the LORD) instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the livestock of the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the livestock of the children of Israel."

42 परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएअनुसार मोशाले इस्राएलका सबै जेठा-जेठाको गन्ती गरे ।

43 तिनले एक महिना र त्यसभन्दा माथिका सबै जेठा छोराहरूको गन्ती गरे ।

All the firstborn males according to the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those who were numbered of them, were twenty-two thousand two hundred seventy-three.

44 तिनले गन्ती गरेका पुरुषको सङ्ख्या २२,२७३ थियो । फेरि, परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

45 “इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका पहिले जन्मेकाहरूको सट्टामा लेवीहरूलाई ले र मानिसहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूका सट्टामा लेवीहरूका गाईवस्तुहरूलाई ले ।

"Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of their livestock; and the Levites shall be mine. I am the LORD.

46 म परमप्रभु हुँ, लेवीहरू मेरा हुन् । लेवीहरूको सङ्ख्याभन्दा बढी भएका २७३ जना पहिले जन्मेकाहरूका हरेकको निम्ति तैँले पाँच-पाँच शेकेल लिनुपर्छ ।

For the redemption of the two hundred seventy-three of the firstborn of the children of Israel, who exceed the number of the Levites,

47 तैँले तेरो मापदण्डको रूपमा पवित्र स्थानको शेकेल नै प्रयोग गर्नुपर्छ । एक शकेलको बिस गेरा हुन्छ ।

you shall take five shekels apiece for each one; after the shekel of the sanctuary you shall take them (the shekel is twenty gerahs):

48 त्यो छुटकाराको मूल्य तैँले हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिनुपर्छ ।”

and you shall give the money, with which the remainder of them is redeemed, to Aaron and to his sons."

49 यसैले लेवीहरूद्वारा छुटकारा पाएका सङ्ख्याभन्दा धेरै भएकाहरूबाट मोशाले छुटकाराको मूल्य जम्मा गरे ।

Moses took the redemption money from those who exceeded the number of those who were redeemed by the Levites;

50 मोशाले इस्राएलको पहिले जन्मेकाहरूबाट पैसा उठाए । तिनले पवित्र स्थनाको शेकेलअनुसार १,३६५ शेकेल उठाए ।

from the firstborn of the children of Israel he took the money, one thousand three hundred sixty-five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:

51 मोशाले त्यो छुटकाराको मूल्य हारून र तिनका छोराहरूलाई दिए । परमप्रभुले उहाँको वचनद्वारा आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम मोशाले सबै थोक गरे ।

and Moses gave the redemption money to Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.
