< Numbers 3 >

1 These are some of the things that happened to Aaron and Moses/me when Yahweh spoke to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain.
Haddaba kuwanu waxa weeye farcammadii Haaruun iyo Muuse waagii Rabbigu Muuse kula hadlay Buur Siinay.
2 Aaron’s four sons were Nadab the oldest, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
Oo kuwanu waa wiilashii Haaruun magacyadoodii, Naadaab oo curadkii ahaa, iyo Abiihuu, iyo Elecaasaar, iyo Iitaamaar.
3 They were appointed [MTY] (OR, Moses/I appointed them) to be priests.
Kuwaasu waa wiilashii Haaruun magacyadoodii, oo waa wadaaddadii la subkay oo uu gooni uga dhigay inay adeegaan shuqulka wadaadnimada.
4 But, while Yahweh was watching, Nadab and Abihu died in the Sinai Desert because they burned [incense] in a manner that was different from what Yahweh had commanded. They had no sons, so Eleazar and Ithamar were the [only] sons of Aaron who [were left to be] priests, along with their father Aaron.
Naadaab iyo Abiihuu waxay ku dhinteen Rabbiga hortiisa, markay dab qalaad ku bixiyeen Rabbiga hortiisa iyagoo cidlada Siinay jooga, oo iyagu carruurna ma ay lahayn. Markaasay Elecaasaar iyo Iitaamaar shuqulkii wadaadnimada kaga adeegi jireen aabbahood Haaruun hortiisa.
5 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Kolkaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
6 “Bring [the men of] the tribe of Levi and present them to Aaron, in order that they may assist him.
Qabiilka reer Laawi soo dhowee oo wadaadka Haaruun hortiisa keen inay isaga u adeegaan.
7 They will serve Aaron and all the other Israeli people, while they do their work inside the Sacred Tent and outside it.
Oo iyagu waa inay amarkiisa iyo amarka shirka oo dhan ku yeelaan teendhada shirka horteeda si ay hawsha taambuugga u sameeyaan.
8 They must serve all the Israeli people by taking care of all the things that are inside the Sacred Tent.
Oo waa inay dhawraan alaabta teendhada shirka oo dhan, iyo amarka reer binu Israa'iil, si ay hawsha taambuugga u sameeyaan.
9 Appoint them to [help] Aaron and his two sons. I have chosen them from all the Israeli people to do that.
Oo adigu waa inaad reer Laawi siisaa Haaruun iyo wiilashiisaba, oo iyaga dhammaantood waa la siiyey reer binu Israa'iil aawadood.
10 Appoint Aaron and his two sons to do the work that priests do. But anyone else who comes close to the Sacred Tent [to do that work] must be executed.”
Oo waa inaad Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa doorataa, oo iyagu waa inay dhawraan wadaadnimadooda, oo shisheeyihii u soo dhowaadana waa in la dilaa.
11 Yahweh also told Moses/me,
Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
12 “Note that from all the Israelis, I have chosen the men of the tribe of Levi to take the places of all the firstborn sons of the Israeli people. The male descendants of Levi belong to me,
Oo bal eeg, anna waxaan reer Laawi kala dhex baxay reer binu Israa'iil intii aan ka qaadan lahaa curadyada reer binu Israa'iil ee maxalka furta oo dhan, oo reer Laawi waxay ahaanayaan kuwaygii,
13 because truly all the firstborn [males] belong to me. That is because on the day that I killed all the firstborn [sons] of the people of Egypt, I [spared] all the firstborn [sons] of the Israelis and set them apart for myself. I also set apart the firstborn [males] of your domestic animals. They belong to me, Yahweh.”
waayo, curadyada oo dhan anigaa iska leh. Maalintii aan curadyadii Masar oo dhan wada laayay ayaan quduus ka wada dhigtay curadyada reer binu Israa'iil, dad iyo duunyoba, oo iyagu kuwaygay ahaanayaan, waayo, aniga ayaa Rabbiga ah.
14 Yahweh spoke to Moses/me again in the Sinai Desert. He said,
Oo haddana Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse kula hadlay cidlada Siinay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
15 “Count the male members of the tribe of Levi. Write down their names and the names of their clans and family groups. Count all the males who are at least one month old.”
Reer Laawi oo dhan u soo wada tiri reer reer iyo qolo qolo. Nin kasta oo bil jira ama ka sii weyn waa inaad tirisaa.
16 So Moses/I counted them, just as Yahweh commanded.
Markaasaa Muuse iyagii u tiriyey sidii eraygii Rabbigu ahaa oo uu isaga ugu amray.
17 Levi had [three] sons, whose names were Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
Kuwanu waxay ahaayeen wiilashii Laawi magacyadoodii: Gershoon, iyo Qohaad, iyo Meraarii.
18 Gershon had [two] sons: Libni and Shimei. The clans that were descended from them had the same names as those [two] sons.
Oo kuwanuna waa magacyadii wiilashii Gershoon siday qolooyinkoodu yihiin, Libnii iyo Shimcii.

Oo wiilashii Meraariina siday qolooyinkoodu yihiin waa Maxlii iyo Mushii, kuwanu waa qolooyinkii reer Laawi siday reerahoodu yihiin.
21 The two clans descended from Gershon are those that were descended from [his sons] Libni and Shimei.
Oo Gershoon waxaa ka soo farcamay reer Libnii iyo reer Shimcii, kuwaasu waa qolooyinkii reer Gershoon.
22 In those two clans there were 7,500 males who were at least one month old.
Oo kuwii iyaga laga tiriyey siday ahayd tiradii kuwii lab ahaa oo dhan, intii bil jirtay ama ka sii weynayd, kulli intoodii la tiriyey waxay ahaayeen toddoba kun iyo shan boqol.
23 They were told to set up their tents on the west side of the Sacred Tent.
Oo reer Gershoon qolooyinkoodii waa inay taambuugga dabadiisa xagga galbeedka teendhooyinkooda ka dhistaan.
24 The leader of those two clans was Eliasaph, the son of Lael.
Oo amiirka reer Gershoonna waa inuu ahaadaa Eliyaasaaf ina Laa'eel.
25 Their work was to take care of the Sacred Tent, including the coverings of the tent, the curtain at the entrance of the tent,
Oo reer Gershoonna waa inay teendhada shirka ugu taliyaan taambuuga, iyo Teendhada, iyo dedkeeda, iyo daaha iridda teendhada shirka,

They also did all the work of taking care of the things outside the Sacred Tent.
iyo barxadda daahyadeeda, iyo daaha iridda barxadda oo taambuugga iyo meesha allabariga ku wareegsan iyo xadhkihii hawsha lagu qabto oo dhan.
27 The clans that were descended from Kohath were those descended from his four sons: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
Oo Qohaadna waxaa ka soo farcamay reer Camraam, iyo reer Isehaar, iyo reer Xebroon, iyo reer Cusii'eel; kuwaasu waa qolooyinkii reer Qohaad.
28 In those four clans there were 8,600 males who were at least one month old. The work of the men of the clans was to take care of [the things that are inside] the Sacred Tent.
Siday ahayd tiradii kuwii lab ahaa oo dhan intii bil jirtay ama ka sii weynayd waxay ahaayeen siddeed kun iyo lix boqol, oo waxay u taliyeen meesha quduuska ah.
29 They set up their tents on the south side of the Sacred Tent.
Oo qolooyinka reer Qohaad waa inay taambuugga dhankiisa koonfureed teendhooyinkooda ka dhistaan.
30 The leader of those four clans was Elizaphan, the son of Uzziel.
Oo amiirka reer Qohaadna waa inuu ahaadaa Eliisaafaan ina Cusii'eel.
31 The work of the men of those clans was to take care of the sacred chest, the table [on which the priest put the sacred bread], the lampstand, the altars, all the items that the priest used in the Sacred Tent, and the curtain that is inside the tent. Their work was also to take care of the things inside the tent.
Oo iyana waxay u talin doonaan sanduuqa, iyo miiska, iyo laambadda, iyo meelaha allabariga, iyo weelasha meesha quduuska ah oo ay ku adeegaan, iyo daaha, iyo hawsha oo dhan.
32 Aaron’s son Eleazar was the leader of all the male descendants of Levi. He supervised all the work that was done at the Sacred Tent.
Oo Elecaasaar ina wadaadka Haaruun waa inuu ahaadaa amiirka amiirrada reer Laawi, oo wuxuu korka ka ilaalin doonaa kuwa u taliya meesha quduuska ah.
33 The clans that were descended from Merari were those descended from [his sons] Mahli and Mushi.
Oo Meraariina waxaa ka soo farcamay reer Maxlii iyo reer Mushii, kuwaasu waa qolooyinkii reer Meraarii.
34 In those two clans there were 6,200 males who were at least one month old.
Oo kuwoodii loo tiriyey siday ahayd tiradii kuwii labka ahaa oo dhan, intii bil jirtay ama ka sii weynayd, waxay ahaayeen lix kun iyo laba boqol.
35 They were told to set up their tents on the north side of the Sacred Tent. The leader of those two clans was Zuriel, the son of Abihail.
Oo qabiilka reer Meraarii amiirkoodii wuxuu ahaa Surii'eel ina Abiixayil, oo iyana waa inay taambuugga dhankiisa woqooyi teendhooyinkooda ka dhistaan.
36 The work of the men of those two clans was to take care of the frames that held up the tent, the crossbars, the pillars, and the bases. They also did all the work that was connected with those items.
Oo reer Meraarii waxaa loo amray inay u taliyaan taambuugga looxyadiisa, iyo ulihiisa gudban, iyo tiirarkiisa, iyo saldhigyadiisa, iyo alaabtiisa oo dhan, iyo hawshiisa oo dhan,
37 Their work was also to take care of the posts [that held up the curtains that formed the walls of] the courtyard, and all the bases, tent pegs, and ropes [that fastened those curtains].
iyo tiirarka barxadda ku wareegsanna, iyo saldhigyadooda, iyo musaamiirtooda iyo xadhkahooda.
38 Aaron and Moses/I and Aaron’s sons were told to set up their/our tents in the area in front of the Sacred Tent, on the east side. Their/Our work was to supervise the work that would be done in and around the Sacred Tent, for the benefit of the Israeli people. Only the priests were permitted to do that. [Yahweh declared that] we should execute anyone else who went near the tent [to do the work that the priests do].
Oo kuwa teendhooyinkooda ka dhistaa taambuugga xaggiisa bari iyo teendhada shirka horteeda xagga qorrax ka soo baxa waa inay ahaadaan Muuse iyo Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa, oo waxay reer binu Israa'iil ugu talinayaan meesha quduuska ah; oo shisheeyaha u soo dhowaadana waa in la dilaa.
39 When Aaron and Moses/I counted all the males who were at least one month old, who belonged to the clans descended from Levi, the total was 22,000.
Oo kulli intii reer Laawi ah ee la tiriyey, oo Muuse iyo Haaruun ay qolo qolo ugu tiriyeen amarkii Rabbiga, kuwii lab ahaa oo dhan oo bil jiray ama ka sii weynaa, waxay ahaayeen laba iyo labaatan kun.
40 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Now count all the [other] firstborn males in Israel who are at least one month old, and write down their names.
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Tiri curadyada labka ah oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, intii bil jirta ama ka sii weyn, oo magacyadooda ku soo xisaab.
41 Also, set apart for me the descendants of Levi to be substitutes for the firstborn males of the other Israelis. And set apart for me the livestock of the descendants of Levi to be substitutes for the firstborn livestock of the other Israeli people.”
Oo waa inaad ii qaaddaa reer Laawi intii aad ii qaadi lahayd curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo waa inaad xoolaha reer Laawina ii qaaddaa intii aad ii qaadi lahayd curadyada xoolaha reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, waayo, aniga ayaa Rabbiga ah.
42 So Moses/I did that. He/I counted the firstborn males of all the Israeli people, as Yahweh had commanded.
Markaasaa Muuse curadyadii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan u tiriyey sidii Rabbigu ugu amray.
43 The total of those who were at least one month old was 22,273.
Oo curadyadii labka ahaa oo dhammu, sidii tirada magacyadoodu ahayd, intii bil jirtay ama ka sii weynayd, kuwii iyaga laga soo tiriyey waxay ahaayeen laba iyo labaatan kun iyo laba boqol iyo saddex iyo toddobaatan.
44 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
45 “Set apart the descendants of Levi to be substitutes for [the firstborn males of] the other Israeli people. The descendants of Levi belong to me, Yahweh.
Reer Laawi ii qaad intii aad ii qaadi lahayd curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo xoolaha reer Laawina ii qaad intii aad ii qaadi lahayd xoolaha reer binu Israa'iil, oo reer Laawi kuwaygay ahaanayaan, waayo, aniga ayaa Rabbiga ah.
46 There are 273 more firstborn males of the other Israeli people than of the descendants of Levi.
Oo labada boqol iyo saddex iyo toddobaatanka curad oo reer binu Israa'iil oo ka sii badan reer Laawi,
47 To pay for these 273 males, collect five pieces of silver for each of them. Each of those pieces of silver must weigh the same as each of the silver coins that are stored in the Sacred Tent. Give this silver to Aaron and his sons.”
madaxtiriskiiba waxaad iigu madax furataa shan sheqel oo le'eg sheqelka meesha quduuska ah. (Sheqelku waa labaatan geeraah.)
Oo tiradooda dheeraadka ah lacagta lagu madax furtay waa inaad Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa siisaa.
49 So Moses/I did that. He/I collected the silver from those 273 males.
Markaasaa Muuse lacagtii ka qaaday kuwii ka sii badnaa kuwii lagu madax furtay reer Laawi.
50 The total was 1,365 pieces of silver. Each silver coin weighed the same as each of the silver coins stored in the Sacred Tent.
Oo curadyadii reer binu Israa'iil ayuu ka qaaday lacagtii, oo ahayd kun iyo saddex boqol iyo shan iyo lixdan sheqel oo le'eg sheqelka meesha quduuska ah.
51 Moses/I gave these silver coins to Aaron and his sons, as Yahweh had commanded.
Oo Muuse lacagtii madaxfurashada ahayd wuxuu u dhiibay Haaruun iyo wiilashiisii, siduu ahaa eraygii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray.
