Ne mbakuŋŋaanyiza ku mugga ogukulukutira e Yakava, ne tusiisira eyo okumala ennaku ssatu. Awo bwe nnali nga nneekebejja abantu ne bakabona, ne sirabamu Baleevi.
16 Nokudaro ndakadana Eriezeri, Arieri, Shemaya, Erinati, Jaribhi, Erinatani, Natani, Zekaria, naMeshurami, avo vakanga vari vatungamiri naJoyaribhi naErinatani, avo vakanga vari varume vakadzidza,
Kyennava ntumya Eryeza ne Alyeri ne Semaaya ne Erunasani ne Yalibu ne Erunasani ne Nasani ne Zekkaliya ne Mesullamu, abaali abakulembeze ne Yoyalibu ne Erunasani, abaali abategeevu,
17 uye ndakavatuma kuna Idho, mutungamiri womuKasifia. Ndakavaudza zvokutaura kuna Idho nehama dzake, varanda vomutemberi muKasifia, kuitira kuti vagouya navashandi vomumba maMwari wedu kwatiri.
ne mbatuma eri Iddo omukulu w’ekifo eky’e Kasifiya, ne mbategeeza bye baba bagamba Iddo ne baganda be, abaaweerezanga mu yeekaalu mu kifo ekyo eky’e Kasifiya, batuuweereze abaweereza abaliyamba mu nnyumba ya Katonda waffe.
18 Nokuti ruoko rwenyasha rwaMwari wedu rwakanga rwuri pamusoro pedu, vakauya naSherebhia, murume aiva nounyanzvi, akabva kuzvizvarwa zvaMari, mwanakomana waRevhi, mwanakomana waIsraeri, uye navanakomana vaSherebhia nehama dzake, varume gumi navasere,
Olw’omukono gwa Katonda ogwali awamu naffe, ne batuleetera omusajja omutegeevu, omu ku bazzukulu ba Makuli, mutabani wa Leevi, mutabani wa Isirayiri, erinnya lye Serebiya, wamu ne baganda be ne batabani baabwe, abasajja kkumi na munaana;

20 Vakauyawo navaranda vomutemberi mazana maviri namakumi maviri, uwandu hwakanga hwanyorwa naDhavhidhi namakurukota kuti vabatsire vaRevhi. Vose vakanga vakanyorwa mazita avo.
Ate era ne baleeta n’abaweereza ba yeekaalu Dawudi n’abakungu be baalonda okubeeranga Abaleevi ebikumi bibiri mu abiri. Bonna baali beewandiisizza.
21 Ipapo, paRwizi rweAhavha, ndakatara nguva yokutsanya kuti tizvininipise pamberi paMwari wedu uye kuti timukumbire kuti atifambise rwendo rwakanaka isu navana vedu nepfuma yedu yose.
Awo ku mugga Akava, ne nangirira okusiiba, twetoowaze mu maaso ga Katonda waffe, nga tumwegayirira okubeera awamu naffe n’abaana baffe n’ebintu byaffe byonna mu lugendo lwaffe.
22 Nokuti ndakanyara kukumbira mambo kuti atipe varwi navatasvi vamabhiza kuti vatirwire kubva kuvavengi vedu parwendo nokuti takanga taudza mambo kuti, “Ruoko rwenyasha rwaMwari wedu rwuri pamusoro pomunhu wose anotarira kwaari.”
Nakwatibwa ensonyi okusaba kabaka abaserikale abakuumi ab’ebigere n’abeebagala embalaasi okutukuuma eri abalabe, kubanga twali tumutegeezeza nti, “Omukono omulungi ogwa Katonda waffe gubeera ku buli muntu amunoonya, naye obusungu bwe bubeera ku abo abamujeemera.”
23 Naizvozvo takatsanya uye tikanyengetera kuna Mwari wedu pamusoro paizvozvi, uye akapindura munyengetero wedu.
Kyetwava tusiiba ne twegayirira Katonda waffe ku nsonga eyo, era n’addamu okusaba kwaffe.
24 Ipapo ndakatsaura vaprista vaitungamira gumi navaviri, pamwe chete naSherebhia, naHashabhia uye nehama dzavo gumi,
Awo ne nonda Serebiya ne Kasabiya ne baganda baabwe abalala kkumi, be bantu kkumi na babiri okuva mu bakabona abakulu,
25 uye ndakavaerera zvipiriso zvesirivha negoridhe nemidziyo yakanga yapiwa kuimba yaMwari wedu namambo navapi vake vamazano namakurukota ake uye navaIsraeri vose.
ne mbapimira ffeeza ne zaabu n’ebintu kabaka, n’abaami be, n’abakungu be, ne Isirayiri yenna, bye baawaayo ku lw’ennyumba ya Katonda waffe.
26 Ndakavaerera matarenda mazana matanhatu namakumi mashanu esirivha, nemidziyo yesirivha yairema matarenda zana, namatarenda zana egoridhe,
Ne mbagererera ttani amakumi abiri mu ttaano eza ffeeza, n’ebintu ebya ffeeza obuzito bwabyo ttani ssatu n’ebitundu bisatu byakuna, ne zaabu ttani ssatu n’ebitundu bisatu byakuna,
27 mbiya dzegoridhe makumi maviri dzaikosha madhariki chiuru chimwe chete, uye nemidziyo miviri yakaisvonaka yendarira yaibwinya, inokosha segoridhe.
ne kilo munaana n’ekitundu eza zaabu, n’ebitundu bibiri eby’ekikomo ebirungi ebizigule, eby’omuwendo nga zaabu.
28 Ndakati kwavari, “Imi pamwe chete nemidziyo iyi makatsaurirwa Jehovha. Sirivha negoridhe ndizvo zvipo zvokupa nokuzvisarudzira kuna Jehovha, Mwari wamadzibaba enyu.
Ne mbategeeza nti, “Muli batukuvu eri Mukama, n’ebintu bino bitukuvu eri Mukama. Effeeza ne zaabu biweebwayo kyeyagalire eri Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjammwe.
29 Muzvirinde zvakanaka kusvikira mazviyera pamberi pavakuru vavaprista navaRevhi uye navakuru vemhuri dzavaIsraeri paJerusarema mumakamuri eimba yaJehovha.”
Mubikuume bulungi era mubituuse bulungi eri bakabona abakulu n’Abaleevi, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za Isirayiri.”
30 Ipapo vaprista navaRevhi vakagamuchira sirivha negoridhe nemidziyo mitsvene yakanga yaerwa kuti iendeswe kuimba yaMwari wedu muJerusarema.
Awo bakabona n’Abaleevi ne baweebwa effeeza ne zaabu, n’ebintu ebyawongebwa, ebyali bipimiddwa, okubitwala mu nnyumba ya Katonda waffe e Yerusaalemi.
31 Pazuva regumi namaviri romwedzi wokutanga takabva parwizi rweAhavha tichienda kuJerusarema. Ruoko rwaMwari rwakanga rwuri pamusoro pedu, uye akatidzivirira kubva kuvavengi navakanga vakativandira panzira.
Ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ebbiri olw’omwezi ogw’olubereberye ne tusitula okuva ku mugga Akava okugenda e Yerusaalemi. Omukono gwa Katonda waffe ne gubeera wamu naffe, n’atukuuma eri abalabe n’abanyazi mu kkubo.
32 Saka takasvika muJerusarema tikazororamo kwamazuva matatu.
Ne tutuuka e Yerusaalemi gye twawumulira okumala ennaku ssatu.
33 Pazuva rechina, muimba yaMwari takayera sirivha negoridhe nemidziyo mitsvene mumaoko aMeremoti mwanakomana waUria, muprista. Ereazari mwanakomana waFinehasi akanga aripowo naye, uye navaRevhi vanoti Jozabhadhi mwanakomana waJeshua naNoadhia mwanakomana waBhinui.
Awo ku lunaku olwokuna, nga tuli mu nnyumba ya Katonda waffe, ne tupima ffeeza ne zaabu n’ebintu ebyawongebwa ne tubikwasa Meremoosi kabona, mutabani wa Uliya, ne Eriyazaali mutabani wa Finekaasi eyali awamu naye, ne Yozabadi mutabani wa Yeswa, ne Nowadiya mutabani wa Binnuyi, Abaleevi.
34 Zvinhu zvose zvakaverengwa uwandu hwazvo uye zvikayerwa, uye uremu hwazvo zvose hwakanyorwa panguva iyoyo.
Byonna ne bibalibwa ng’omuwendo gwabyo bwe gwali n’obuzito bwabyo bwe bwali era ne biwandiikibwa.
35 Ipapo vatapwa vakanga vadzoka kubva kuutapwa vakabayira zvipiriso zvinopiswa kuna Mwari waIsraeri: hando gumi nembiri dzavaIsraeri vose, makondobwe makumi mapfumbamwe namatanhatu, namakwayana makono makumi manomwe namanomwe, uye nhongo dzembudzi gumi nembiri, sechipiriso chechivi. Zvose izvi zvaiva chipiriso chinopiswa kuna Jehovha.
Mu kiseera ekyo abaawaŋŋangusibwa, abakomawo okuva mu busibe, ne bawaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Katonda wa Isirayiri: ente ennume kkumi na bbiri ku lwa Isirayiri yenna, n’endiga ennume kyenda mu mukaaga, n’obuliga obuto nga bulume nsanvu mu musanvu, n’embuzi ennume kkumi na bbiri okuba ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi, ebyo byonna ne biba ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama.
36 Vakapawo zvirevo zvamambo kumachinda amambo uye navabati mhiri kwaYufuratesi, avo vakazopawo rubatsiro kuvanhu nokuimba yaMwari.
Ate era ne batuusa n’ebiragiro bya kabaka eri bagavana n’abaamasaza abaali emitala w’omugga Fulaati, abafuzi abo ne bayamba abantu ne bawaayo n’obuyambi eri ennyumba ya Katonda.
