< Numbers 3 >

1 Now this is the history of the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in Mount Sinai.
Zao o tarira’ i Aharone naho i Mosè tamy andro nitsarae’ Iehovà amy Mosè am-bohi-Sinaiy.
2 These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Iretoy o tahinan’ ana’ i Aharoneo: Tañoloñoloña’e t’i Nadabe naho i Abiho, i Elazare, vaho Itamare.
3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest’s office.
Ie ro tahina’ i ana’ i Aharone rey, o mpisoroñe norizañeo, i noriza’e hitoroñe ho mpisoroñe rey.
4 Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD when they offered strange fire before the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children. Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the presence of Aaron their father.
Fe nihomak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà t’i Nadabe naho i Abiho, ie nañenga afo tsie aolo’ Iehovà ampatram-bei’ i Sinay añe, ie tsy nanañ’ anake. Aa le nitoroñe ho mpisoroñe añatrefa’ i Aharone rae’e t’i Elazare naho Itamare.
5 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Le nanao ty hoe amy Mosè t’Iehovà:
6 “Bring the tribe of Levi near, and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.
Ampañarineo ty fifokoa’ i Levy, vaho ampiatrefo i Aharone mpisoroñe, hitoroña’ iareo.
7 They shall keep his requirements, and the requirements of the whole congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Ho henefe’ iareo o fitoloña’eo naho ty fitoloña’ i valobohòke aolo’ i kibohom-pamantañañey hitoloñe amy kivohoy.
8 They shall keep all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting, and the obligations of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
Ho vandroñe’ iereo ty harao’ i kibohom-pamantañañey le ho henefe’ iareo ty fiatrahañe o ana’ Israele mioza amy fitoroñañe i kivohoy.
9 You shall give the Levites to Aaron and to his sons. They are wholly given to him on the behalf of the children of Israel.
Le tendreo ho amy Aharone naho o ana’eo o nte-Levio; ie hene nitolorañe boak’ amo ana’ Israeleo.
10 You shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall keep their priesthood, but the stranger who comes near shall be put to death.”
Aa le tendreo t’i Aharone naho o ana’eo hitolon-ko mpisoroñe; fe havetrake ze ondaty ila’e miharine eo.
11 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè:
12 “Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn who open the womb among the children of Israel; and the Levites shall be mine,
Ingo, zaho ty nandrambe o nte-Levio amo ana’ Israeleo hisolo ze tañoloñoloña’ o ana’ Israele manoka-koviñeo. Aa le ahiko o nte-Levio,
13 for all the firstborn are mine. On the day that I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I made holy to me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and animal. They shall be mine. I am the LORD.”
amy te fonga ahiko ze valohan’ anake: Mifototse amy andro nipaohako ze hene valohan’ anak’ an-tane Mitsraimey le songa navìko ho ahiko ze valohan’ ana’ o ana’ Israeleo, ke ondaty he hare. Ahy iereo, Zaho Iehovà.
14 The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
Le nanao ty hoe amy Mosè an-dratraratra’ i Sinay añe t’Iehovà,
15 “Count the children of Levi by their fathers’ houses, by their families. You shall count every male from a month old and upward.”
Volilio o ana’ i Levio, amo anjomban-droae’eo, naho amo hasavereña’eo; fonga iaho ze lahilahy vola’e raike mañambone.
16 Moses counted them according to the LORD’s word, as he was commanded.
Aa le niahe’ i Mosè amy tsara’ Iehovày, amy nandiliañe azey.

39 All who were counted of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron counted at the commandment of the LORD, by their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
Ty ia’ o niaheñe amo nte-Levio; o niahe’ i Mosè naho i Aharone ami’ty lili’ Iehovà amo hasavereña’eoo, ze lahilahy vola’e raike mañambone, le ro’ale-tsi-ro’arivo.
40 The LORD said to Moses, “Count all the firstborn males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè: Volilio ze hene tañoloñoloña’ o ana’ Israele vola’e raike mañamboneo, songa iaheñe ami’ty tahina’e.
41 You shall take the Levites for me—I am the LORD—instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the livestock of the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the livestock of the children of Israel.”
Le rambeso ho ahy, Iehovà, o nte-Levio hasolo ze hene tañoloñoloña’ o ana’Israeleo; le ty hare’ o nte-Levio ty hasolo ze hene valohan’ anan-kare’ o ana’ Israeleo.
42 Moses counted, as the LORD commanded him, all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
Aa le fonga niahe’ i Mosè o ana’ Israeleo ami’ty nandilia’ Iehovà.
43 All the firstborn males according to the number of names from a month old and upward, of those who were counted of them, were twenty-two thousand two hundred seventy-three.
Ty nañiahañe o hene tañoloñoloñan-dahilahy vola’e raike mañamboneo, am-pañiahañe o tahina’eo, le niro’ ale-tsi-ro’ arivo-tsi-roan-jato-tsi-fitompolo-telo’ amby.
44 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Le hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
45 “Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites instead of their livestock; and the Levites shall be mine. I am the LORD.
Rambeso ho ahiko o nte-Levio hasolo ze hene tañoloñoloña’ o ana’ Israeleo naho ty hare’ o nte-Levio hasolo ty hare’ iareo. Ho ahiko o nte-Levio, Zaho Iehovà.
46 For the redemption of the two hundred seventy-three of the firstborn of the children of Israel who exceed the number of the Levites,
Aa ty hijebañañe i roan-jato-tsi-fitompolo-telo-ambi’ o tañoloñoloñan’ ana’ Israele nandikoatse ty ia’ o nte-Levioo rey,

48 and you shall give the money, with which their remainder is redeemed, to Aaron and to his sons.”
Le hatolo’o amy Aharone naho amo ana’eo i drala nijebañañe o ila’e nandikoatseoy.
49 Moses took the redemption money from those who exceeded the number of those who were redeemed by the Levites;
Aa le rinambe’ i Mosè i dralam-pijebañañey amo nandikoatse ze nijebañe’ o nte-Levio;
50 from the firstborn of the children of Israel he took the money, one thousand three hundred sixty-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary;
amo tañoloñoloña’ o ana’ Israeleo ty nandrambesa’e ty drala arivo-tsi-telon-jato-tsi-enempolo-lime amby amo sekelen-toe-miavakeo;
51 and Moses gave the redemption money to Aaron and to his sons, according to the LORD’s word, as the LORD commanded Moses.
vaho natolo’ i Mosè amy Aharone naho amo ana’eo i dralay, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày, amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy.
