Lakkoobsa 3
1 Yeroo Waaqayyo Tulluu Siinaa irratti Museetti dubbatetti seenaan sanyii Aroonii fi Musee kanaa dha.
These are the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day when the Lord spoke to Moses on mount Sinai.
2 Maqaan ilmaan Aroon: Naadaab hangafticha, Abiihuu, Eleʼaazaarii fi Iitaamaar.
And these are the names of the sons of Aaron: his firstborn Nadab, then Abihu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
3 Kunneen maqaawwan ilmaan Aroon jechuunis luboota muudaman kanneen akka luboota taʼanii tajaajilaniif dibaman sanaa ti.
These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed and whose hands were filled and consecrated in order to exercise the priesthood.
4 Naadaabii fi Abiihuu garuu yeroo Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti ibidda hin eeyyamamin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeessanitti fuuluma isaa duratti duʼan. Isaan ilmaan tokko illee hin qaban ture. Kanaafuu Eleʼaazaarii fi Iitaamaar bara abbaan isaanii Aroon lubbuun jiraatetti luboota taʼanii tajaajilan.
For Nadab and Abihu died without children, when they offered, in the sight of the Lord, a strange fire, in the desert of Sinai. And so, Eleazar and Ithamar exercised the priesthood in the sight of Aaron, their father.
5 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
6 “Gosa Lewwii fidiitii akka isaan Aroon lubicha gargaaraniif isa dura dhaabi.
“Bring forward the tribe of Levi, and cause them to stand in the sight of Aaron the priest, in order to minister to him. And let them keep watch outside,
7 Isaanis hojii dunkaana qulqulluu hojjechuudhaan waan isa irraa barbaadamuu fi waan waldaa hunda irraa barbaadamu fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti haa raawwatan.
and let them observe whatever pertains to the ritual for the multitude, in front of the tabernacle of the testimony,
8 Isaan hojii dunkaana qulqulluu hojjetanii dirqama Israaʼelootaa guutuudhaan miʼa dunkaana wal gaʼii hunda haa eegan.
and let them take care of the vessels of the tabernacle, serving in its ministry.
9 Lewwota sana Aroonii fi ilmaan isaatti kenni; isaan warra saba Israaʼel keessaa guutumaan guutuutti isatti kennamanii dha.
And you shall give the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons; for they have been delivered to them by the sons of Israel.
10 Ati akka isaan luboota taʼanii tajaajilaniif Aroonii fi ilmaan isaa muudi; namni biraa kan iddoo qulqulluu sanatti dhiʼaatu garuu ajjeefamuu qaba.”
But you shall appoint Aaron and his sons over the service of the priesthood. The outsider who approaches to minister shall be put to death.”
11 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 “Kunoo ani Israaʼeloota keessaa qooda dhiira hangafa dubartoota Israaʼel hundaa Lewwota fudhadheera. Lewwonni kan koo ti;
“I have taken the Levites from the sons of Israel. For the Levites, and all the firstborn who open the womb among the sons of Israel, shall be mine.
13 hangafti hundinuu kan kootii. Ani yeroo biyya Gibxi keessatti hangafa hunda ajjeesetti hangafa Israaʼel hunda jechuunis namas taʼu horii ofii kootiif addaan baafadheera. Isaan kan koo taʼan. Ani Waaqayyo.”
For every firstborn is mine. From the time that I struck the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I have sanctified for myself whatever is born first in Israel. From man, even to beast, they are mine. I am the Lord.”
14 Waaqayyo Gammoojjii Siinaa keessatti Museedhaan akkana jedhe;

“Number the sons of Levi by the houses of their fathers and their families, every male from one month and above.”

And they shall keep watch over the tabernacle of the covenant:

And the Lord said to Moses: “Number the firstborn of the male sex from the sons of Israel, from one month and above, and you shall take their total.

And you shall bring the Levites to me, in place of all the firstborn of the sons of Israel, and you shall bring their cattle to me, in place of all the firstborn of the cattle of the sons of Israel. I am the Lord.”
