Numbers 10
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
2 'Make thee two trumpets of silver; of beaten work shalt thou make them; and they shall be unto thee for the calling of the congregation, and for causing the camps to set forward.
“Weesa mu ffeeza amakondeere abiri ogakozesenga okuyitanga abantu bonna okukuŋŋaana, era n’okubalagira okuggyawo ensiisira zaabwe.
3 And when they shall blow with them, all the congregation shall gather themselves unto thee at the door of the tent of meeting.
Amakondeere gombi bwe ganaafuuyibwanga, ekibiina ky’abantu bonna banaakuŋŋaaniranga w’oli ku mulyango gwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.
4 And if they blow but with one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
Naye bwe banaafuuwangako erimu, olwo abakulembeze, be bakulu b’ebika bya Isirayiri, be banaakuŋŋaaniranga w’oli.
5 And when ye blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall take their journey.
Amakondeere ag’omwanguka bwe ganaafuuyibwanga, ebika ebinaabanga bisiisidde ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba binaasitulanga okutambula.
6 And when ye blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall set forward; they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
Ate bwe banaafuuwanga ag’omwanguka omulundi ogwokubiri, ensiisira ezinaabanga mu bukiikaddyo, zinaasitulanga okutambula. Amakondeere ag’omwanguka ke kanaabanga akabonero akanaabategeezanga nti basitule batambule.
7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
Naye bwe kineetaagisanga okukuba olukuŋŋaana, onoofuuwanga amakondeere naye tegaabenga ga mwanguka.
8 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for a statute for ever throughout your generations.
“Abaana ba Alooni, bakabona, be banaafuuwanga amakondeere. Lino linaabanga tteeka ery’enkalakkalira mu mmwe ne mu mirembe egigenda okujja.
9 And when ye go to war in your land against the adversary that oppresseth you, then ye shall sound an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
Bwe munaagendanga okutabaala omulabe abajoogerereza mu nsi yammwe, mufuuwanga amakondeere ag’omwanguka. Bwe mutyo munajjukirwanga Mukama Katonda, era anaabawonyanga abalabe bammwe.
10 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your appointed seasons, and in your new moons, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt-offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace-offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God.'
Mu biseera eby’essanyu, ne ku mbaga zammwe entongole ne ku mbaga z’omwezi ogwakaboneka, munaafuuwanga amakondeere nga bwe muwaayo ebiweebwayo byammwe ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo byammwe olw’emirembe, era binaabanga bijjukizo byammwe awali Katonda wammwe. Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.”
11 And it came to pass in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, that the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the testimony.
Awo olwatuuka ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu mwezi ogwokubiri mu mwaka ogwokubiri, ekire ne kisitulibwa okuva waggulu wa Weema ey’Endagaano.
12 And the children of Israel set forward by their stages out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud abode in the wilderness of Paran. —
Abaana ba Isirayiri ne basitula ne batambula okuva mu Ddungu lya Sinaayi, oluvannyuma ekire ne kiyimirira mu Ddungu lya Palani.
13 And they took their first journey, according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

Ku nkomerero ya byonna, ebibinja by’omu lusiisira lwa Ddaani, nga bye bikuuma emabega, ne bisitula okutambula n’ebendera yaabyo nga bikoobedde ensiisira zonna; Akiyezeeri mutabani wa Amisadaayi nga ye muduumizi waabyo.

Eyo ye yali entegeka ey’abaana ba Isirayiri ng’ebibinja byabwe bwe byali nga basitula okutambula.
29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law: 'We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said: I will give it you; come thou with us, and we will do thee good; for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.'
Awo Musa n’agamba mukoddomi we Kobabu mutabani wa Leweri Omumidiyaani nti, “Tusitula okutambula okugenda mu kifo Mukama kye yatugamba nti, ‘Ndikibawa.’ Kale nno, jjangu tugende ffenna tulikuyisa bulungi, kubanga Mukama yasuubiza Isirayiri ebintu ebirungi.”
30 And he said unto him: 'I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.'
Naye n’addamu nti, “Nedda, sijja kugenda nammwe, nzirayo mu nsi ye waffe era mu bantu bange.”
31 And he said: 'Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be to us instead of eyes.
Naye Musa n’amugamba nti, “Nkwegayiridde totuleka. Ggwe omanyi obulungi eddungu gye tusaanye okukuba olusiisira lwaffe, ggwe ojja okubeera amaaso gaffe.
32 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what good soever the LORD shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee.'
Singa ojja ne tugenda ffenna, tunaagabaniranga wamu buli kirungi kyonna Mukama ky’anaatuwanga.”
33 And they set forward from the mount of the LORD three days' journey; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting-place for them.
Awo ne basitula okuva ku lusozi lwa Mukama Katonda ne batambulira ennaku ssatu. Essanduuko ya Mukama ey’Endagaano n’ebakulemberanga okumala ennaku ezo essatu ng’ebanoonyeza ekifo eky’okuwummuliramu.
34 And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.
Buli lwe baasitulanga okutambula nga bava mu lusiisira, ekire kya Mukama Katonda kyabeeranga waggulu waabwe buli budde bwa misana.
35 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said: 'Rise up, O LORD, and let Thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate Thee flee before Thee.'
Buli abeetissi b’Essanduuko ya Mukama Katonda lwe baasitulanga okutambula, Musa n’agamba nti, “Golokoka, Ayi Mukama! Abalabe bo basaasaane; amaggye agakulwanyisa gakudduke.”
36 And when it rested, he said: 'Return, O LORD, unto the ten thousands of the families of Israel.'
Buli Ssanduuko ya Mukama Katonda lwe yawummuzibwanga, Musa n’agamba nti, “Komawo, Ayi Mukama, eri enkumi n’enkumi eza Isirayiri.”
