< Numbers 9 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sina in the second year after they had gone forth from the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying,
Awo Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa mu Ddungu lya Sinaayi mu mwezi ogw’olubereberye ogw’omwaka ogwokubiri kasookedde bava mu nsi y’e Misiri. N’amugamba nti,
2 Speak, and let the children of Israel keep the passover in its season.
“Lagira abaana ba Isirayiri bakwatenga Embaga ey’Okuyitako mu ntuuko zaayo nga bwe kyalagirwa.
3 On the fourteenth day of the first month at even, you shall keep it in its season; you shall keep it according to its law, and according to its ordinance.
Mugikwatanga mu ntuuko zaayo ezaalagirwa ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya olw’omwezi guno nga buwungeera, ng’amateeka n’ebiragiro byako bwe bigamba.”
4 And Moses ordered the children of Israel to sacrifice the passover,
Bw’atyo Musa n’agamba abaana ba Isirayiri okukwata Embaga ey’Okuyitako;
5 on the fourteenth day of the first month in the wilderness of Sina, as the Lord appointed Moses, so the children of Israel did.
era ne bakola bwe batyo mu Ddungu lya Sinaayi ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya olw’omwezi ogw’olubereberye nga buwungeera. Abaana ba Isirayiri baakola ebyo byonna nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa.
6 And there came men who were unclean by reason of a dead body, and they were not able to keep the passover on that day; and they came before Moses and Aaron on that day.
Naye waaliwo abantu abamu abataasobola kukwata Mbaga ey’Okuyitako ku lunaku olwo, kubanga tebaali balongoofu olwokubanga baali bakutte ku mufu. Bwe batyo ne bajja eri Musa ne Alooni ku lunaku olwo lwennyini,
7 And those men said to Moses, We are unclean by reason of the dead body of a man: shall we therefore fail to offer the gift to the Lord in its season in the midst of the children of Israel?
ne bagamba Musa nti, “Tetuli balongoofu kubanga twakutte ku mufu; lwaki tugaanibwa okuleetera Mukama ekiweebwayo kye, awamu n’abaana ba Isirayiri, mu ntuuko zaakyo ezaalagirwa?”
8 And Moses said to them, stand there, and I will hear what charge the Lord will give concerning you.
Musa n’abaddamu nti, “Mulinde mmale okumanya Mukama Katonda ky’anandagira ku nsonga yammwe.”
9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
10 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whatever man shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or on a journey far off, amongst you, or amongst your posterity; he shall then keep the passover to the Lord,
“Yogera eri abaana ba Isirayiri obagambe nti, ‘Omu ku mmwe, oba omu ku bazzukulu bammwe ab’omu mirembe egiriddawo, singa afuuka atali mulongoofu olw’okukwata ku mufu, oba nga taliiwo yagenda olugendo olw’ewala, anaakwatanga Embaga ey’Okuyitako eya Mukama Katonda.
11 in the second month, on the fourteenth day; in the evening they shall offer it, with unleavened bread and bitter herbs shall they eat it.
Banaakwatanga embaga eyo ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya mu mwezi ogwokubiri akawungeezi. Omwana gw’endiga banaagulyanga n’omugaati ogutali muzimbulukuse n’enva ez’ebikoola ebikaawa.
12 They shall not leave of it until the morrow, and they shall not break a bone of it; they shall sacrifice it according to the ordinance of the passover.
Tebagulekangawo okutuusa enkeera, wadde okumenya ku magumba gaagwo. Bwe banaakwatanga Embaga ey’Okuyitako kinaabasaaniranga okukola ng’amateeka g’embaga eyo bwe galagira.
13 And whatever man shall be clean, and is not far off on a journey, and shall fail to keep the passover, that soul shall be cut off from his people, because he has not offered the gift to the Lord in its season: that man shall bear his iniquity.
Naye omuntu omulongoofu ate nga teyagenda lugendo, kyokka n’atakwata Mbaga ey’Okuyitako, anaawaŋŋangusibwanga n’ava mu banne, kubanga teyaleeta kiweebwayo kya Mukama Katonda mu ntuuko zaakyo. Ekibi ky’omuntu oyo kinaabeeranga ku mutwe gwe.
14 And if there should come to you a stranger in your land, and should keep the passover to the Lord, he shall keep it according to the law of the passover and according to its ordinance: there shall be one law for you, both for the stranger, and for the native of the land.
“‘Omunnaggwanga anaabeeranga mu mmwe bw’anaabanga ayagala okukwata Embaga ey’Okuyitako kwa Mukama Katonda anaagikwatanga ng’agoberera amateeka n’ebiragiro byayo. Munaabanga n’ebiragiro byebimu ebinaagobererwanga bannaggwanga era ne bannansi.’”
15 And in the day in which the tabernacle was pitched the cloud covered the tabernacle, the place of the testimony; and in the evening there was upon the tabernacle as the appearance of fire till the morning.
Ku lunaku Weema ya Mukama ey’Endagaano lwe yasimbibwa, ekire ne kigibikka. Okuva akawungeezi okutuusa ku makya ekire ekyali waggulu wa Weema ne kifaanana ng’omuliro.
16 So it was continually: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.
Bwe kityo bwe kyabeeranga; ekire kyagibikkanga emisana naye ekiro ne kifaanana ng’omuliro.
17 And when the cloud went up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel departed; and in whatever place the cloud rested, there the children of Israel encamped.
Era ekire buli lwe kyaggyibwanga ku Weema, olwo abaana ba Isirayiri ne basitula mu lugendo lwabwe; era awo ekire ekyo we kyayimiriranga, nga n’abaana ba Isirayiri we basiisira.
18 The children of Israel shall encamp by the command of the Lord, and by the command of the Lord they shall remove: all the days in which the cloud overshadows the tabernacle, the children of Israel shall encamp. And whenever the cloud shall be drawn over the tabernacle for many days, then the children of Israel shall keep the charge of God, and they shall not remove.
Mukama bwe yalagiranga abaana ba Isirayiri okusitula mu lugendo lwabwe, nga basitula; Mukama bwe yabalagiranga okukuba olusiisira nga bakola bwe batyo. Ebbanga lyonna ekire lye kyamalanga waggulu wa Weema nga nabo lye bamala mu lusiisira lwabwe.
19 And it shall be, whenever the cloud overshadows the tabernacle a number of days, they shall encamp by the word of the Lord, and shall remove by the command of the Lord.
Ekire ne bwe kyamalanga ennaku ennyingi waggulu wa Weema, abaana ba Isirayiri baagonderanga ekiragiro kya Mukama Katonda ne batasitula kutambula.
20 And it shall come to pass, whenever the cloud shall remain from the evening till the morning, and in the morning the cloud shall go up, then shall they remove by day or by night.
Oluusi ekire kyamalanga ennaku ntono waggulu wa Weema; naye ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama Katonda bwe kyali, nga basigala mu lusiisira lwabwe; kyokka oluvannyuma nga basitula okutambula ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama Katonda bwe kyabanga.
21 When the cloud continues a full month overshadowing the tabernacle, the children of Israel shall encamp, and shall not depart.
Oluusi ekire kyabeerangawo okuva akawungeezi okutuusa mu makya; naye ekire bwe kyaggyibwangawo mu makya, ng’olwo basitula okutambula; oba bwe kyasigalangawo olunaku n’ekiro kyonna oluvannyuma ne kiggyibwawo, ng’olwo basitula okutambula.
22 For they shall depart by the command of the Lord: - they kept the charge of the Lord by the command of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
Ekire ne bwe kyabeeranga waggulu wa Weema okumala ennaku ebbiri oba omwezi, abaana ba Isirayiri nga babeera awo mu lusiisira lwabwe nga tebasitula kutambula; naye bwe kyaggyibwangawo ng’olwo basitula okutambula.
Mukama bwe yabalagiranga okusigala, nga basigala mu lusiisira lwabwe nga bawummudde, ate Mukama bwe yabalagiranga okutambula, nga basitula okutambula. Baagonderanga ekiragiro kya Mukama nga bwe yalagira Musa.
