Hesabu 3
1 Sasa hii ndiyo historia ya uzao wa Haruni na Musa wakati BWANA aliposema na Musa kwenye mlima Sinai.
And these [are] births of Aaron and Moses, in the day of Jehovah's speaking with Moses in mount Sinai.
2 Majina ya watoto wa Haruni walikuwa Nadabu ambaye ndiyo mtoto wa kwanza, na Abihu, na Eliezeri, na Ithamari.
And these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron: the first-born Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar;
3 Haya ndiyo majina ya wana wa Haruni, makuhani waliokuwa wamepakwa mafuta na kuwekwa wakfu kutumika kama makuhani.
these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed priests, whose hand he hath consecrated for acting as priest.
4 Lakini Nadabu na Abihu walikufa mbele ya BWANA walipomtolea moto usiokubalika walipokuwa katika nyika ya Sinai. Nadabu na Abihu hawakuwa na watoto, kwa hiyo Eliazari na Ithamari walitumika kama makuhani pamoja na baba yao.
And Nadab dieth — Abihu also — before Jehovah, in their bringing near strange fire before Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai, and sons they had not; and Eleazar — Ithamar also — acteth as priest in the presence of Aaron their father.
5 BWANA alinena na Musa, akamwambia,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
6 “Walete kabila ya Lawi na uwaweke kwa Haruni kuhani ili wamsaidie
'Bring near the tribe of Levi, and thou hast caused it to stand before Aaron the priest, and they have served him,
7 Nao lazima wafanye majukumu badala ya Haruni na jumuiya yote mbele ya hema ya kukutania. Lazima watumike hemani.
and kept his charge, and the charge of all the company before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle;
8 Watayatunza mapambo ya hema ya kukutania, na watawatumikia makabila ya Israel kwa huduma ya hemani.
and they have kept all the vessels of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the sons of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle;
9 Uwaweke Walawi kwa Haruni na watoto wake. Nimewatoa kikamilifu ili wamsaidie kuwatumikia watu wa Israel.
and thou hast given the Levites to Aaron and to his sons; they are surely given to him out of the sons of Israel.
10 Umchague Haruni na watoto wake kuwa makuhani, lakini mgeni yeyote atakayekaribia lazima auawe.”
'And Aaron and his sons thou dost appoint, and they have kept their priesthood, and the stranger who cometh near is put to death.'
11 BWANA alinena na Musa. akamwambia,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
12 “Tazama, nimewachagua Walawi katika watu wa Israel. Nimefanya hivyo badala ya kuchukua mzaliwa wa kwanza wa kiume wa wana wa Israel. Hawa Walawi ni wangu.
'And I, lo, I have taken the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel instead of every first-born opening a womb among the sons of Israel, and the Levites have been Mine;
13 Na hata wazaliwa wa kwanza ni mali yangu. Katika siku ambyo niliwavamia wazaliwa wote wa kwanza wa nchi ya Misri, Niliwatenga wazaliwa wa kwanza wa Israeli kwa ajili yangu, watu na wanyama pia. Ni mali yangu. Mimi ndimi BWANA.”
for Mine [is] every first-born, in the day of My smiting every first-born in the land of Egypt I have sanctified to Myself every first-born in Israel, from man unto beast; Mine they are; I [am] Jehovah.'
14 BWANA alinena na Musa katika nyika ya Sinai. Akasema,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
15 “Wahesabu uzao wa Lawi katika kila familia, katika nyumba za koo zao. Hesabu kila mume kuanzia mwezi mmoja au zaidi.”
'Number the sons of Levi by the house of their fathers, by their families; every male from a son of a month and upward thou dost number them.'

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Number every first-born male of the sons of Israel from a son of a month and upward, and take up the number of their names;
41 Unitwalie walawi kwa ajili yangu badala ya wazaliwa wa kwanza wa Israeli, Mimi ndimi BWANA. Na utwae wanyama wa Walawi badala ya wazaliwa wa kwanza wa wanyama wa uzao wa Israeli,”
and thou hast taken the Levites for Me (I [am] Jehovah), instead of every first-born among the sons of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of every firstling among the cattle of the sons of Israel.'
42 Musa akawahesabu wazaliwa wa kwanza wote wa Israeli kama BWANA alivyomwagiza kufanya.
And Moses numbereth, as Jehovah hath commanded him, all the first-born among the sons of Israel.
43 Aliwahesabu wazaliwa wote wa kwanza kwa mjina, wenye umri wa mwezi mmoja na zaidi. Alihesabu wanaume 22, 273.
And all the first-born — male — by the number of names, from a son of a month and upward, of their numbered ones, are two and twenty thousand two hundred and seventy and three.
44 Tena BWANA alinena na Musa. Akasema,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
45 “Watwae Walawi badala ya wazaliwa wote wa kwanza wa wana wa Israeli. Na utwae wanyama wa Walawi badala ya wanyama wa Waisreli wengine. Walawi ni mali yangu. Mimi ndimi BWANA.
'Take the Levites instead of every first-born among the sons of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites have been Mine; I [am] Jehovah.
46 Unikusanyie shekeli tano za wokovu kwa kila hao 273 za hao wazaliwa wa kwanza wa Israeli za hao wanaozidi idadi ya Walawi.
'And [from] those ransomed of the two hundred and seventy and three (who are more than the Levites) of the first-born of the sons of Israel,
47 Utazitumia hizo shekeli tano kwa kipimo cha mahali patakatifu. Shekeli moja ni sawa na gera ishirini.
thou hast even taken five shekels a-piece by the poll — by the shekel of the sanctuary thou takest; twenty gerahs the shekel [is];
48 Utawalipa hizo shekeli za wokovu kwa Haruni na wanawe.”
and thou hast given the money to Aaron, and to his sons, whereby those over and above are ransomed.'
49 Kwa hiyo Musa akakusanya shakeli za wokovu kutoka kwa wale waliozidi idadi ya wale waliookolewa na Walawi.
And Moses taketh the ransom money from those over and above those ransomed by the Levites;
50 Musa akakusanya zile fedha kutoka kwa hao wazaliwa wa kwanza wa wana wa Israeli. Alikusanya jumla ya shekeli 1, 365, zenye kipimo sawa na mahali patakatifu. Musa akamlipa Haruni na wanawe hizo shekeli za wokovu.
from the first-born of the sons of Israel he hath taken the money, a thousand and three hundred and sixty and five — by the shekel of the sanctuary;
51 Musa akafanya kila kitu alichoagizwa na neno la BWANA kama BWANA alivyomwagiza.
and Moses giveth the money of those ransomed to Aaron, and to his sons, according to the command of Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
