< Numbers 10 >

1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Bwana akamwambia Mose:
2 Make thee two trumpets of siluer: of an whole piece shalt thou make the, that thou mayest vse them for the assembling of the Congregation, and for the departure of the campe.
“Tengeneza tarumbeta mbili za fedha ya kufua, uzitumie kwa kuita jumuiya pamoja na wakati wa kuvunja makambi ili kuondoka.
3 And when they shall blowe with them, all the Congregation shall assemble to thee before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Cogregation.
Tarumbeta zote mbili zikipigwa, jumuiya yote itakusanyika mbele yako katika ingilio la Hema la Kukutania.
4 But if they blowe with one, then the princes, or heades ouer the thousandes of Israel shall come vnto thee.
Kama tarumbeta moja tu ikipigwa, viongozi, yaani wakuu wa koo za Israeli, ndio watakaokusanyika mbele yako.
5 But if ye blow an alarme, then the campe of the that pitch on the East part, shall go forward.
Wakati mlio wa kujulisha hatari ukipigwa, makabila yaliyo na makambi upande wa mashariki yataondoka.
6 If ye blowe an alarme the second time, then the hoste of them that lie on the Southside shall march: for they shall blowe an alarme when they remoue.
Ukisikika mlio wa pili wa jinsi hiyo, walioko kwenye makambi ya kusini wataondoka. Mlio huo wa kujulisha hatari utakuwa ishara ya kuondoka.
7 But in assembling the Congregation, ye shall blowe without an alarme.
Ili kukusanya kusanyiko, piga tarumbeta zote, lakini siyo kwa mlio wa kujulisha hatari.
8 And the sonnes of Aaron the Priest shall blowe the trumpets, and ye shall haue them as a lawe for euer in your generations.
“Wana wa Aroni, makuhani, ndio watakaopiga hizo tarumbeta. Hili litakuwa agizo la kudumu kwa ajili yenu na kwa vizazi vijavyo.
9 And when ye goe to warre in your lande against the enemie that vexeth you, ye shall blowe an alarme with the trumpets, and ye shall bee remembred before the Lord your God, and shalbe saued from your enemies.
Wakati mtakapopigana vita katika nchi yenu wenyewe dhidi ya adui anayewaonea, piga tarumbeta kwa mlio wa kujulisha hatari. Ndipo utakumbukwa na Bwana Mungu wenu na kuokolewa kutoka kwa adui zenu.
10 Also in the day of your gladnesse, and in your feast dayes, and in the beginning of your moneths, ye shall also blow the trumpets ouer your burnt sacrifices, and ouer your peace offrings, that they may be a remembrance for you before your God: I am the Lord your God.
Pia nyakati za furaha yenu, yaani sikukuu zenu zilizoamriwa na sikukuu za Mwezi Mwandamo, mtapiga tarumbeta juu ya sadaka zenu za kuteketezwa na sadaka zenu za amani, nazo zitakuwa ukumbusho kwa ajili yenu mbele za Mungu wenu. Mimi ndimi Bwana, Mungu wenu.”
11 And in the seconde yeere, in the seconde moneth, and in the twentieth day of the moneth the cloude was taken vp from the Tabernacle of the Testimonie.
Katika siku ya ishirini ya mwezi wa pili wa mwaka wa pili, wingu liliinuka kutoka juu ya maskani ya Ushuhuda.
12 And ye children of Israel departed on their iourneys out of the desart of Sinai, and the cloud rested in the wildernesse of Paran.
Ndipo Waisraeli wakaondoka kutoka Jangwa la Sinai wakasafiri kutoka sehemu moja hadi nyingine mpaka wingu lilipotua katika Jangwa la Parani.
13 So they first tooke their iourney at the comandement of the Lord, by ye hand of Moses.
Waliondoka kwa mara ya kwanza kwa agizo la Bwana kupitia kwa Mose.
14 In the first place went the standerd of the hoste of the children of Iudah, according to their armies: and Nahshon the sonne of Amminabad was ouer his band.
Vikosi vya kambi ya Yuda vilitangulia kwanza chini ya alama yao. Nashoni mwana wa Aminadabu alikuwa kiongozi wao.
15 And ouer the band of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel ye sonne of Zuar.
Nethaneli mwana wa Suari alikuwa kiongozi wa kabila la Isakari,
16 And ouer the band of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the sonne of Helon.
naye Eliabu mwana wa Heloni alikuwa kiongozi wa kabila la Zabuloni.
17 When the Tabernacle was taken downe, then the sonnes of Gershon, and the sonnes of Merari went forward bearing the Tabernacle.
Ndipo Maskani iliposhushwa, nao wana wa Gershoni na wana wa Merari ambao waliibeba wakaondoka.
18 After, departed the standerd of the hoste of Reuben, according to their armies, and ouer his band was Elizur the sonne of Shedeur.
Vikosi vya kambi ya Reubeni vilifuata, chini ya alama yao. Elisuri mwana wa Shedeuri alikuwa kiongozi wao.
19 And ouer the band of the tribe of ye children of Simeon was Shelumiel the sonne of Shurishaddai.
Shelumieli mwana wa Surishadai aliongoza kikosi cha kabila la Simeoni,
20 And ouer the bande of the tribe of ye children of Gad was Eliasaph the sonne of Deuel.
naye Eliasafu mwana wa Deueli aliongoza kikosi cha kabila la Gadi.
21 The Kohathites also went forward and bare the Sanctuarie, and the former did set vp the Tabernacle against they came.
Kisha Wakohathi wakaondoka, wakichukua vitu vitakatifu. Maskani ilikuwa isimamishwe kabla wao hawajafika.
22 Then the standerd of the hoste of the children of Ephraim went forward according to their armies, and ouer his bande was Elishama the sonne of Ammiud.
Vikosi vya kambi ya Efraimu vilifuata, chini ya alama yao. Elishama mwana wa Amihudi alikuwa kiongozi wao.
23 And ouer the band of the tribe of ye sonnes of Manasseh was Gamliel the sonne of Pedazur.
Gamalieli mwana wa Pedasuri aliongoza kikosi cha kabila la Manase,
24 And ouer the band of ye tribe of the sonnes of Beniamin was Abidan the sonne of Gideoni.
naye Abidani mwana wa Gideoni alikuwa kiongozi wa kikosi cha kabila la Benyamini.
25 Last, the standerd of the hoste of the children of Dan marched, gathering all ye hostes according to their armies: and ouer his bande was Ahiezer the sonne of Ammishaddai.
Mwishowe, kama kikosi cha nyuma cha ulinzi wa vikosi vyote, vikosi vya kambi ya Dani viliondoka chini ya alama yao. Ahiezeri mwana wa Amishadai alikuwa kiongozi wao.
26 And ouer the bande of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the sonne of Ocran.
Pagieli mwana wa Okrani aliongoza kikosi cha kabila la Asheri,
27 And ouer the bande of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira ye sonne of Enan.
naye Ahira mwana wa Enani aliongoza kikosi cha kabila la Naftali.
28 These were the remouings of the children of Israel according to their armies, whe they marched.
Huu ndio ulikuwa utaratibu wa kuondoka wa vikosi vya Waisraeli walipokuwa wanaondoka.
29 After, Moses said vnto Hobab ye sonne of Reuel the Midianite, ye father in law of Moses, We go into the place, of which ye Lord said, I will giue it you: Come thou with vs, and we wil doe thee good: for ye Lord hath promised good vnto Israel.
Basi Mose akamwambia Hobabu mwana wa Reueli, Mmidiani, mkwewe Mose, “Tunaondoka kwenda mahali ambapo Bwana amesema ‘Nitawapa ninyi mahali hapo.’ Twende pamoja nasi tutakutendea mema, kwa maana Bwana ameahidi mambo mema kwa Israeli.”
30 And he answered him, I will not goe: but I will depart to mine owne countrey, and to my kindred.
Akajibu, “Hapana, sitakwenda; nitarudi kwenye nchi yangu mwenyewe na watu wangu mwenyewe.”
31 Then he sayd, I pray thee, leaue vs not: for thou knowest our camping places in the wildernesse: therefore thou mayest be our guide.
Lakini Mose akasema, “Tafadhali usituache. Wewe unajua mahali ambapo yatupasa kupiga kambi jangwani, nawe unaweza kuwa macho yetu.
32 And if thou go with vs, what goodnes the Lord shall shew vnto vs, the same will we shewe vnto thee.
Ikiwa utafuatana nasi, tutashirikiana nawe mema yoyote tutakayopewa na Bwana.”
33 So they departed from the mount of the Lord, three dayes iourney: and the Arke of the couenant of the Lord went before them in the three dayes iourney, to searche out a resting place for them.
Hivyo waliondoka kutoka mlima wa Bwana, nao wakasafiri kwa siku tatu. Sanduku la Agano la Bwana liliwatangulia kwa zile siku tatu ili kuwatafutia mahali pa kupumzika.
34 And the cloude of the Lord was vpon the by day, when they went out of the campe.
Wingu la Bwana lilikuwa juu yao wakati wa mchana walipoondoka kambini.
35 And when the Arke went forwarde, Moses saide, Rise vp, Lord, and let thine enemies bee scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee before thee.
Wakati wowote Sanduku lilipoondoka, Mose alisema, “Ee Bwana, inuka! Watesi wako na watawanyike; adui zako na wakimbie mbele zako.”
36 And when it rested, hee sayde, Returne, O Lord, to the many thousands of Israel.
Wakati wowote Sanduku liliposimama, alisema, “Ee Bwana, rudi, kwa maelfu ya Waisraeli wasiohesabika.”
