1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses in the desert of Sinai in the tent of meeting, —on the first of the second month in the second year by their coming forth out of the land of Egypt saying:
Mungu alimwambia Musa katika hema ya kukutania walipokuwa katika jangwa la Sinai. Hii ilitokea katika siku ya kwanza ya mwezi wa pili miaka miwili baadaya Waisraeli kutoka nchi ya Misri. Mungu alisema,
2 Reckon ye up the sum of all the assembly of the sons of Israel, by their families by their ancestral houses, —in the counting of names, every male, by their polls;
'fanya sensa ya wanaume wote wa Israel kutoka kila ukoo, katika familia za baba zao. Wahesabu kwa majina, wahesabu kila mume, kila mwanamume

4 and with you, shall be one man for each tribe, —each man, head of his ancestral house, shall be.

47 But the Levites by the tribe of their fathers were not numbered in their midst.
Lakini wanaume toka uzao wa Lawi hawakuhesabiwa,
48 For Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
Kwa sababu BWANA alimwambia Musa,
49 Only the tribe of Levi, shalt thou not number, nor the sum of them, shalt thou reckon up, in the midst of the sons of Israel.
“usiwahesabu wale wa kabila la Lawi wala kuwajumuisha kwenye jumla ya watu wa Israeli.
50 But do, thou thyself, put the Levites in charge over the habitation of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof and over all that pertaineth thereto, they, shall bear the habitation, and all the furniture thereof, and they, shall attend thereupon; and, round about the habitation, shall they encamp.
Badala yake, waagize Walawi kuliangalia hema la amri za agano, na kuangalia mapambo ya hema na vyote vilivyomo. Walawi watalazimika kulibeba hema na lazima wayabebe mapambo ya hema. Lazima waliangalie hema na kuyatengeneza mazingira yake. Wataiangalia masikani na kuzitengeneza kambi zinazolizunguka.
51 And, when the habitation is to set forward, the Levites shall take it down, and when the habitation is to be pitched, the Levites, shall set it up, but the stranger that draweth near, shall be put to death.
Kila hema litakapotakiwa kuhamishiwa eneo jingine, Walawi ndio watakaolipeleka pale. Na kila hema litakapotakiwa kusimamishwa, Walawi ndio watakao lisimamisha. Na mgeni yeyote atakayelisogelea hema lazima auawe.
52 So then the sons of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man, near his own camp, and, every man, near his own standard, by their hosts;
Wakati watu wa Israeli watakaposimamisha hema zao, kila mwanaume lazima awe karibu na bango la jeshi lake.
53 but the Levites, shall pitch their tents round about the habitation of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the assembly of the sons of Israel, —so shall the Levites keep the watch of the habitation of the testimony.
Hata hivyo Walawi lazima waweke hema zao kuizunguka hiyo masikani ya amri za agano ili kwamba hasira yangu isije ikawaka juu ya wana wa Israeli. Walawi lazima wailinde hiyo masikani ya amri za agano.”
54 Thus did the sons of Israel, —according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did they.
Wana wa Israeli walifanya yote haya. Walifanya yote ambayo BWANA aliagiza kupitia Musa.
