Hesabu 26

1 Ilitokea baada ya tauni ambayo BWANA alimwambia Musa na Eliazari mwana wa Haruni kuhani, Alisema,

Now after the disease was over, the Lord said to Moses and Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest,

2 Wahesabu watu wote wa Israeli, kuanzia miaka ishirini na zaidi, kwa jamaa ya familia zao wote ambao wanaweza kwenda kwenye vita kwa ajili ya Israeli.”

Let all the children of Israel be numbered, by the names of their fathers' families, all those of twenty years old and over who are able to go to war in Israel.

3 Kwa hiyo Musa na Eliazari kuhani wakawaambia katika uwanda wa Moabu karibu na Yorodani kule Yeriko na kusema,

So Moses and Eleazar the priest gave them the order in the lowlands of Moab by Jordan at Jericho, saying,

4 Wahesabuni watu, kuanzi umri wa miaka ishirini na zaidi kama BWANA alivyomwamuru Musa na watu wa Israeli walitoka katika nchi ya Misri.”

Let all the people of twenty years old and over be numbered, as the Lord has given orders to Moses and the children of Israel who have come out of Egypt.

And the Lord said to Moses,

53 Ile ardhi itagawanywa kati ya wanaume hawa kama urithi wao kwa kufuata idadi ya majina yao.

Let there be a division of the land among these, for their heritage, in relation to the number of names.

54 Kwa zile koo kubwa utawagawia urithi mkubwa, na kwa koo ndogo ndogo utawagawia urithi kidogo. Kwa kila familia utawapa urithi kufuata idadi ya wanaume waliohesabiwa.

To those families who are more in number, give a greater heritage; to those who are less in number, a smaller part: to every one let the heritage be given in relation to the number in his family.

55 Lakini ardhi itagawiwa kwa kupigiwa kura. Watairithi nchi kama itakavyogawiwa kwa kufuata koo za mababu.

But let the distribution of the land be made by the decision of the Lord: by the names of the tribes of their fathers let their heritage be given them.

56 Urithi huu utagiwiwa kufuata koo kubwa na ndogo, watagawiwa kwa kufuata kura zitakavyokuwa.

As it is ordered by the decision of the Lord, let distribution be made between those who are more in number and those who are less.

But among all these was not one of those numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest when the children of Israel were numbered in the waste land of Sinai.

65 Kwa BWANA alikuwa amesema kuwa kwa hakika watu hao wote wangefia jangwani. Hapakuwa na mtu aliyebaki miongoni mwao, isipokuwa Kalebu mwana wa Yefune na Joshua mwana wa Nuni.

For the Lord had said of them, Death will certainly overtake them in the waste land. And of them all, only Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, the son of Nun, were still living.
