1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo ku yidhi,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Haaruun la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Markaad laambadaha shiddid, toddobada laambadood oo yaryar waa inay ka iftiimaan laambadda horteeda.
Speak to Aaron, and thou shalt say to him: When thou shalt place the seven lamps, let the candlestick be set up on the south side. Give orders therefore that the lamps look over against the north, towards the table of the leaves of proposition, over against that part shall they give light, towards which the candlestick looketh.
3 Oo Haaruunna sidaasuu yeelay, oo wuxuu wada shiday laambadaheedii si ay uga iftiimaan laambadda horteeda, sidii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray.
And Aaron did so, and he put the lamps upon the candlestick, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
4 Oo shuqulkii laambaddu wuxuu ahaa dahab la tumay. Tan iyo salkeeda ilaa ubaxeeda waxay wada ahayd dahab la tumay. Sidii Rabbigu Muuse u tusay ayuu laambaddii u sameeyey.
Now this was the work of the candlestick, it was of beaten gold, both the shaft in the middle, and all that came out of both sides of the branches: according to the pattern which the Lord had shewn to Moses, so he made the candlestick.
5 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
6 Reer Laawi ka dhex sooc reer binu Israa'iil oo iyaga daahiri.
Take the Levites out of the midst of the children of Israel, and thou shalt purify them,
7 Oo markaad daahirinaysid sidan iyaga ku samee: dushooda waxaad ku rushaysaa biyaha daahirinta, oo iyaguna timaha ha ka xiireen jidhkooda oo dhan, oo dharkoodana ha maydheen, hana isdaahiriyeen.
According to this rite: Let them be sprinkled with the water of purification, and let them shave all the hairs of their flesh. And when they shall have washed their garments, and are cleansed,
8 Oo markaas iyagu ha kaxaysteen dibi yar iyo qurbaankiisii hadhuudhka oo ah bur saliid lagu daray, oo dibi kale oo yarna waxaad u kaxaysaa qurbaan dembi.
They shall take an ox of the herd, and for the offering thereof fine flour tempered with oil: and thou shalt take another ox of the herd for a sin offering:
9 Oo reer Laawi waa inaad hor taagtaa teendhada shirka, oo waa inaad soo shirisaa dadka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the covenant, calling together all the multitude of the children of Israel:
10 Oo reer Laawi waa inaad keentaa Rabbiga hortiisa, oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa inay gacmaha saaraan reer Laawi.
And when the Levites are before the Lord, the children of Israel shall put their hands upon them:
11 Haaruunna waa inuu reer Laawi Rabbiga hortiisa ugu bixiyaa qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan reer binu Israa'iil daraaddood, si ay u sameeyaan Rabbiga hawshiisa.
And Aaron shall offer the Levites, as a gift in the sight of the Lord from the children of Israel, that they may serve in his ministry.
12 Oo reer Laawina waa inay gacmaha saaraan madaxa dibida, oo mid waxaad u bixisaa qurbaan dembi, kan kalena waxaad Rabbiga ugu bixisaa qurbaan la gubo, si aad reer Laawi ugu kafaaro guddid.
The Levites also shall put their hands upon the heads of the oxen, of which thou shalt sacrifice one for sin, and the other for a holocaust to the Lord, to pray for them.
13 Oo reer Laawi waa inaad Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa soo hor taagtaa, oo aad Rabbiga ugu bixisaa qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan.
And thou shalt set the Levites in the sight of Aaron and of his sons, and shalt consecrate them being offered to the Lord,
14 Oo waa inaad reer Laawi sidaas uga soocdaa reer binu Israa'iil, oo reer Laawina kuwaygay ahaan doonaan.
And shalt separate them from the midst of the children of Israel, to be mine.
15 Oo markaas dabadeedna reer Laawi ha u galeen inay ka adeegaan teendhada shirka, oo waa inaad iyaga daahirisaa oo qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan u bixisaa.
And afterwards they shall enter into the tabernacle of the covenant, to serve me. And thus shalt thou purify and consecrate them for an oblation of the Lord: for as a gift they were given me by the children of Israel.
16 Waayo, iyaga dhammaantood ayaa la iiga soocay reer binu Israa'iil. Intii lay siin lahaa intii maxal furta oo dhan, kuwaasoo ah curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, ayaan iyaga qaatay.
I have taken them instead of the firstborn that open every womb in Israel,
17 Waayo, dad iyo duunyaba curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan anigaa iska leh. Waxaan iyaga quduus ka dhigtay maalintii aan wada laayay curadyadii dalka Masar oo dhan.
For all the firstborn of the children of Israel, both of men and of beasts, are mine. From the day that I slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, have I sanctified them to myself:
18 Oo waxaan qaatay reer Laawi intii aan qaadan lahaa curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of Israel:
19 Oo reer Laawi ayaan reer binu Israa'iil ka soocay oo hadiyad ahaan u siiyey Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa inay reer binu Israa'iil uga adeegaan teendhada shirka iyo inay reer binu Israa'iil u kafaaro gudaan, si aan belaayo ugu dhicin reer binu Israa'iil markii reer binu Israa'iil ay u soo dhowaadaan meesha quduuska ah.
And have delivered them for a gift to Aaron and his sons out of the midst of the people, to serve me for Israel in the tabernacle of the covenant, and to pray for them, lest there should be a plague among the people, if they should presume to approach unto my sanctuary.
20 Oo Muuse iyo Haaruun iyo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu sidaasay ku sameeyeen reer Laawi. Wixii reer Laawi ku saabsanaa ee uu Rabbigu Muuse ku amray oo dhan ayay reer binu Israa'iil wada yeeleen.
And Moses and Aaron and all the multitude of the children of Israel did with the Levites all that the Lord had commanded Moses:
21 Oo reer Laawina dembi way iska daahiriyeen, oo dharkoodiina way maydheen, markaasaa Haaruun qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan Rabbiga hortiisa iyaga ugu bixiyey, oo inuu iyaga daahiriyo aawadeed ayaa Haaruun u kafaaro guday.
And they were purified, and washed their garments. And Aaron lifted them up in the sight of the Lard, and prayed for them,
22 Oo markaas dabadeed ayaa reer Laawi gudaha u galeen inay teendhada shirka kaga adeegaan Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa hortooda, oo wixii reer Laawi ku saabsanaa ee uu Rabbigu Muuse ku amray ayay ku sameeyeen.
That being purified they might go into the tabernacle of the covenant to do their services before Aaron and his sons. As the Lord had commanded Moses touching the Levites, so was it done.
23 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
24 Tanu waa waxa reer Laawi intii shan iyo labaatan sannadood jirta ama ka sii weyn ay leeyihiin inay sameeyaan. Iyagu ha galeen oo ha ka adeegeen hawsha teendhada shirka.
This is the law of the Levites: From twenty-five years old and upwards, they shall go in to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
25 Oo markii ay konton jir gaadhaan waa inay ka joogsadaan hawsha ka-adeegiddeeda oo aanay mar dambe adeegin,
And when they shall have accomplished the fiftieth year of their age, they shall cease to serve:
26 laakiinse walaalahood teendhada shirka ha kala adeegeen si ay amarka u hayaan laakiinse yaanay hawl dambe qaban. Sidaas waa inaad ka yeeshaa amarrada ku saabsan reer Laawi hawshooda.
And they shall be the ministers of their brethren in the tabernacle of the covenant, to keep the things that are committed to their care, but not to do the works. Thus shalt thou order the Levites touching their charge.
