< Chronicles I 5 >

1 And the sons of Ruben the firstborn of Israel (for he [was] the firstborn; but because of his going up to his father's couch, [his father] gave his blessing to his son Joseph, [even] the son of Israel; and he was not reckoned as firstborn;
Batabani ba Lewubeeni, mutabani omukulu owa Isirayiri, ye yali omubereberye, naye nayonoona obufumbo bwa kitaawe, obusika bwe ng’omuggulanda ne buweebwa batabani ba Yusufu mutabani wa Isirayiri, kyeyava tabalirwa mu byafaayo ng’omubereberye.
2 for Judas [was] very mighty even amongst his brethren, and one was to be a ruler out of him: but the blessing [was] Joseph's).
Yuda yali w’amaanyi okusinga baganda be, era mu ye mwe mwava kabaka ow’eggwanga lya Isirayiri, wabula ebyobusika eby’obuggulanda byali bya mutabani wa Yusufu omukulu.
3 The sons of Ruben the firstborn of Israel; Enoch, and Phallus, Asrom, and Charmi.
Batabani ba Lewubeeni, mutabani omukulu owa Isirayiri baali: Kanoki, ne Palu, ne Kezulooni ne Kalumi.
4 The sons of Joel; Semei, and Banaia his son: and the sons of Gug the son of Semei.
Ab’enda ya Yoweeri baali Semaaya mutabani we, ne Gogi muzzukulu we, ne Simeeyi muzzukulu we.
5 His son [was] Micha, his son Recha, his son Joel,
Mikka yali mutabani wa Simeeyi, ne Leyaya n’aba muzzukulu we, ne Baali n’aba muzzukulu we.
6 his son Beel, whom Thagla-phallasar king of Assyria carried away captive: he [is] the chief of the Rubenites.
Mutabani wa Baali yali Beera, omukulu w’ekika ky’Abalewubeeni, Tirugazupiruneseri kabaka w’e Busuuli gwe yatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse.
7 And his brethren in his family, in their distribution according to their generations; the chief, Joel, and Zacharia.
Baganda be ng’enda zaabwe bwe zaali be bano: Yeyeri omukulu w’ekika, Zekkaliya,
8 And Balec the son of Azuz, the son of Sama, the son of Joel: he lived in Aroer, and even to Naban, and Beelmasson.
Bera mutabani wa Azozi, muzzukulu wa Sema, muzzukulu wa Yoweeri. Be baasenga mu Aloweri okutuuka e Nebo ne Baalu Myoni.
9 And he lived eastward to the borders of the wilderness, from the river Euphrates: for they had much cattle in the land of Galaad.
Ate baasenga n’ebuvanjuba w’eddungu okutuukira ddala ku mugga Fulaati, kubanga amagana gaabwe gaali gaaze nnyo.
10 And in the days of Saul they made war upon the sojourners [in the land]; and they fell into their hands, all of them dwelling in their tents eastward of Galaad.
Awo ku mirembe gya Sawulo ne balumba Abakaguli, era Abakaguli ne bagwa mu mikono gyabwe, era bali ne beegazaanyiza mu nsi y’Abakaguli okutuukira ddala ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olw’e Gireyaadi.
11 The sons of Gad lived over against them in the land of Basan even to Sela.
Bazzukulu ba Gaadi baabeeranga okuliraana Basani okwolekera Saleka.
12 Joel the firstborn, and Sapham the second, and Janin the scribe in Basan.
Yoweeri ye yali omukulembeze, ne Safamu nga ye mumyuka we, ate ne wabaawo ne Yanayi ne Safati mu Basani.
13 And their brethren according to the houses of their fathers; Michael, Mosollam, and Sebee, and Joree, and Joachan, and Zue, and Obed, seven.
Baganda baabwe mu nda z’abajjajjaabwe bwe baali Mikayiri, ne Mesullamu, ne Seeba, ne Yolayi, ne Yakani, ne Ziya, ne Eberi, bonna awamu musanvu.
14 These [are] the sons of Abichaia the son of Uri, the son of Idai, the son of Galaad, the son of Michael, the son of Jesai, the son of Jeddai, the son of Buz,
Bano be baali ab’omu nnyumba ya Abikayiri mutabani wa Kuuli, muzzukulu wa Yalowa, muzzukulu wa Gireyaadi, muzzukulu wa Mikayiri, muzzukulu wa Yesisayi, muzzukulu wa Yakudo, ne muzzukulu wa Buzi.
15 [who was] the brother of the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, [he was] chief of the house of their families.
Aki mutabani wa Abudyeri, muzzukulu wa Guni, omukulu w’ennyumba yaabwe.
16 They lived in Galaad, in Basan, and in their villages, and [in] all the country round about Saron to the border.
Baabeeranga mu Gireyaadi, mu Basani, ne mu bibuga byayo ebirala ne mu malundiro g’e Saloni okutuuka ku nsalo yaayo.
17 The enumeration of [them] all took place in the days of Joatham king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
Bino byonna byawandiikibwa mu bitabo ebyafaayo mu mirembe gya Yosamu kabaka wa Yuda, ne Yerobowaamu kabaka wa Isirayiri.
18 The sons of Ruben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasse, of mighty men, bearing shields and sword, and bending the bow, and skilled in war, [were] forty and four thousand and seven hundred and sixty, going forth to battle.
Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase baalina abasajja emitwalo ena mu enkumi nnya mu lusanvu mu nkaaga, ab’amaanyi era nga bazira mu kukwata engabo, ekitala, ne mu kukozesa obusaale, era nga batendeke mu kulwana.
19 And they made war with the Agarenes, and Itureans, and Naphiseans, and Nadabeans,
Ne balumba Abakaguli, ne Yetuli, ne Nafisi ne Nodabu.
20 and they prevailed against them: and the Agaraeans were given into their hands, [they] and all their tents: for they cried to God in the battle, and he listened to them, because they trusted on him.
Olw’okwesiga n’okusaba Katonda okubabeera, baawangula Abakaguli mu lutalo.
21 And they took captive their store; five thousand camels, and two hundred and fifty thousand sheep, two thousand asses, and a hundred thousand men.
Baanyaga amagana g’ente, n’eŋŋamira emitwalo etaano, n’endiga emitwalo abiri mu etaano n’endogoyi enkumi bbiri ate ne bawamba n’abasajja emitwalo kkumi.
22 For many fell slain, because the war [was] of God. And they lived in their place until the captivity.
Era bangi ku bo battibwa kubanga olutalo lwali lwa Katonda. Ne basenga eyo okutuusa lwe baawaŋŋangusibwa.
23 And the half-tribe of Manasse lived from Basan to Baal, Ermon, and Sanir, and [to] the mount Aermon: and they increased in Libanus.
Abantu ab’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase baali bangi nnyo, era baasenga mu nsi eya Basani okutuuka ku Baalukerumooni, ne Seniri, ne ku lusozi Kerumooni.
24 And these were the heads of the houses of their families; Opher, and Sei, and Eliel, and Jeremia, and Oduia, and Jediel, mighty men of valour, men of renown, heads of the houses of their families.
Bano be baali abakulu b’ennyumba zaabwe: Eferi, ne Isi, ne Eryeri, ne Azulyeri, ne Yeremiya, ne Kodaviya, ne Yakudyeri, abasajja abazira era ab’amaanyi, abettutumu, nga gy’emitwe gy’ennyumba zaabwe.
25 But they rebelled against the God of their fathers, and went a-whoring after the gods of the nations of the land, whom God cast out from before them.
Naye ne bakola ebibi ebimenya ebiragiro bya Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe, ne bagoberera bakatonda baamawanga ag’omu nsi eyo, Katonda be yazikiririza mu maaso gaabwe.
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Phaloch king of Assyria, and the spirit of Thagla-phallasar king of Assyria, and carried away Ruben and Gaddi, and the half-tribe of Manasse, and brought them to Chaach, and Chabor, and to the river Gozan, until this day.
Katonda wa Isirayiri kyeyava akubiriza omwoyo gwa Puli kabaka w’e Bwasuli, eyayitibwanga Tirugazupiruneseri, n’alumba Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi n’ekitundu ekyali kisigaddewo ku Manase, n’abawamba era n’abatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse e Kala, n’e Kaboli, n’e Kaala ne ku mugga Gozani, gye bali n’okutuusa leero.
