Lakkoobsa 26
1 Dhaʼicha sana booddee Waaqayyo Musee fi Eleʼaazaar ilma Aroon lubichaatiin akkana jedhe;
After the plague [ended], Yahweh said to Eleazar and Moses/me,
2 “Waldaa saba Israaʼel warra umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi hammasii ol taʼe kanneen loltoota Israaʼel keessa tajaajiluu dandaʼan hunda maatii maatiidhaan lakkaaʼaa.”
“Count all the people of Israel [again]. Write down the names of all the men who are at least 20 years old who are able to fight [in battles], along with their family names.”
3 Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichi dirreewwan Moʼaab irratti, Yordaanos biratti, Yerikoo gamatti akkana jedhanii isaan wajjin dubbatan;
So while the Israelis were on the plains where the Moab people-group lived, Eleazar and Moses/I told this to the Israeli leaders:
4 “Akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajajetti namoota umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaatii fi hammasii olii lakkaaʼaa.” Jarri kunneen Israaʼeloota biyya Gibxiitii baʼanii dha:
“Write down the names of all the Israeli men who are at least 20 years old, as Yahweh has commanded us.” [So they did that], and this is a record of all the descendants of Jacob who came out of Egypt [who were still alive].

“Divide Canaan land among the tribes. Distribute the land according the number of people in each tribe that are on your lists.

The leaders counted 23,000 men from the descendants of Levi who were at least one month old. But these men were not counted when the rest of the Israeli people [were counted], because they were not given any land.
63 Isaan kunneen warra yeroo Musee fi Eleʼaazaar lubichi dirreewwan Moʼaab irratti, Yordaanos biratti, Yerikoo gamatti Israaʼeloota lakkaaʼan sana lakkaaʼamanii dha.
Those were the men whom Eleazar and Moses/I said should be counted. They counted the Israeli people on the plains where the Moab people-group lived, on the [east] side of the Jordan River, across from Jericho [city].
64 Namoota karaa Museetii fi Aroon lubichaan Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti lakkaaʼaman keessaa namni tokko iyyuu isaan gidduu hin turre.
None of the men whom they counted were on the lists that were made by Aaron and Moses/me when the Israelis were in the Sinai Desert,
65 Sababii Waaqayyo waaʼee isaanii, “Isaan Gammoojjii keessatti ni dhumu” jedhee dubbatee tureef, Kaaleb ilma Yefunee fi Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni malee isaan keessaa namni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
because Yahweh had said about them, “They will all die in this desert,” [and that is what happened]. The only ones who were still alive were Jephunneh’s son Caleb and Nun’s son Joshua.
