Hesabu 10
1 BWANA alinena na Musa, akasema,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “tengenza tarumbeta mbili za fedha. Uzitengeneze kwa kufua hizo fedha. Utazitumia hizo tarumbeta kwa kuwaita watu waje pamoja na kwa kuwaita watu wote wakati wa kuondoka kwenye kambi zao.
Make thee two trumpets of beaten silver, wherewith thou mayest call together the multitude when the camp is to be removed.
3 Makuhani watapiga tarumbeta kwa ajili ya kuwaita watu wote mbele yako kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania.
And when thou shalt sound the trumpets, all the multitude shall gather unto thee to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant.
4 Kama makuhani watapiga tarumbeta moja tu, basi viongozi, vichwa koo za Israeli ndipo watakapokutana kwako.
If thou sound but once, the princes and the heads of the multitude of Israel shall come to thee.
5 Utakapopiga tarumbeta ya sauti kuu, ile kambi ya upande wa mashariki itaanza kusafiri.
But if the sound of the trumpets be longer, and with interruptions, they that are on the east side, shall first go forward.
6 Nawe utakapopiga tarumeta kwa sauti kuu mara ya pili, ile kambi ya upande wa kusini wataanza kusafiri. Watapiga tarumbeta kwa sauti kuu ili kuanza safari yao.
And at the second sounding and like noise of the trumpet, they who lie on the south side shall take up their tents. And after this manner shall the rest do, when the trumpets shall sound for a march.
7 Watu wote watakapokutana pamoja, piga hizo tarumbeta lakini si kwa sauti kuu.
But when the people is to be gathered together, the sound of the trumpets shall be plain, and they shall not make a broken sound.
8 Wana wa Haruni, makuhani, watapiga hizo tarumbeta. Huu ndio utakaokuwa utaratibu wa watu wako kwa vizazi vyote.
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall sound the trumpets: and this shall be an ordinance for ever in your generations.
9 Nanyi mtakapoenda vitani katika ardhi yenu dhidi ya maadui wenu wanaowakandamiza, ndipo mtakapotoa ishara ya sauti ya tarumbeta. Mimi, BWANA Mungu wako nitawaita kuwakumbuka na kuwaokoa kutoka kwa maadui wenu.
If you go forth to war out of your land against the enemies that fight against you, you shall sound aloud with the trumpets, and there shall be a remembrance of you before the Lord your God, that you may be delivered out of the hands of your enemies.
10 Pia, wakati wa kusherehekea, sikukuu zenu za kawaida na katika miandamo ya miezi, mtapiga tarumbeta zenu kwa heshima ya sadaka zenu za kuteketezwa na kwa sadaka zenu za amani. Huu utakuwa ukumbusho wenu kwangu, Mungu wenu. Mimi ndimi BWANA Mungu wenu.”
If at any time you shall have a banquet, and on your festival days, and on the first days of your months, you shall sound the trumpets over the holocausts, and the sacrifices of peace offerings, that they may be to you for a remembrance of your God. I am the Lord your God.

29 Musa alinena na Hobibu mwana wa Reueli wa Kabila la Midiani. Reueli alikuwa baba mke wa Musa. Musa akanena na Hobibu akasema, “Tunasafiri kuelekea mahali ambapo BWANA ametuahidi. BWANA alisema kuwa, “Nitawapeni ninyi hilo eneo, 'Njoni pamoja nasi na tutawatendea mema. BWANA ameahidi kuwafanyia mema Waisraeli.”
And Moses said to Hobab the son of Raguel the Madianite, his kinsman: We are going towards the place which the Lord will give us: come with us, that we may do thee good: for the Lord hath promised good things to Israel.
30 Lakini Hobibu akmwambia Musa, “Sitaambatana nanyi.”
But he answered him: I will not go with thee, but I will return to my country, wherein I was born.
31 Naye Musa akamjibu, “Tafadhali msituache. Mnajua jinsi ilivyo kuweka kambi jangwani. Tunaomba mtujali.
And he said: Do not leave us: for thou knowest in what places we should encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be our guide.
32 Kama mtaambatana nasi tutawatendea mema sawa na jinsi BWANA anavyotutendea.”
And if thou comest with us, we will give thee what is the best of the riches which the Lord shall deliver to us.

34 Wingu la BWANA lilikuwa juu yao muda wote wa mchana walipokuwa safarini.
The cloud also of the Lord was over them by day when they marched.
35 Kila hilo sanduku liliposafiri kwenda mbele, Musa alisema, “Inuka BWANA, Uwatawanye maadui wako. Uwafanye wale wanaokuchukia kukukimbia.”
And when the ark was lifted up, Moses said: Arise, O Lord, and let thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee from before thy face.
36 Na kila lile sanduku liliposimama, Musa alisema, “BWANA uwarudie, hawa Waisraeli makumi elfu.”
And when it was set down, he said: Return, O Lord, to the multitude of the host of Israel.
