Numbers 8
1 Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo ku yidhi,
2 “Tell Aaron to put the seven lamps on the lampstand and place them in such a way that they shine toward the front of the lampstand.”
Haaruun la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Markaad laambadaha shiddid, toddobada laambadood oo yaryar waa inay ka iftiimaan laambadda horteeda.
3 So [Moses/I told him what Yahweh said], and he did that.
Oo Haaruunna sidaasuu yeelay, oo wuxuu wada shiday laambadaheedii si ay uga iftiimaan laambadda horteeda, sidii Rabbigu Muuse ku amray.
4 The lampstand had been made from gold that had been hammered [from one large lump of gold], from its base to the decorations at the top [that resembled] flowers. The lampstand was made exactly like Yahweh had told Moses/me that it should be made.
Oo shuqulkii laambaddu wuxuu ahaa dahab la tumay. Tan iyo salkeeda ilaa ubaxeeda waxay wada ahayd dahab la tumay. Sidii Rabbigu Muuse u tusay ayuu laambaddii u sameeyey.
5 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
6 “You must cause the descendants of Levi to be acceptable to me by setting them apart from the other Israeli people.
Reer Laawi ka dhex sooc reer binu Israa'iil oo iyaga daahiri.
7 Do that by sprinkling them with water [which will symbolize] their being freed/cleansed from [the guilt of] their sins. Then they must shave [off all the hair on] their bodies and wash their clothes.
Oo markaad daahirinaysid sidan iyaga ku samee: dushooda waxaad ku rushaysaa biyaha daahirinta, oo iyaguna timaha ha ka xiireen jidhkooda oo dhan, oo dharkoodana ha maydheen, hana isdaahiriyeen.
8 Then they must bring to the Sacred Tent one bull and some grain mixed with [olive] oil. [Those things will be burned] as sacrifices. They must also bring another bull [that will enable me to forgive them] for the sins they have committed.
Oo markaas iyagu ha kaxaysteen dibi yar iyo qurbaankiisii hadhuudhka oo ah bur saliid lagu daray, oo dibi kale oo yarna waxaad u kaxaysaa qurbaan dembi.
9 Then you must summon all the Israeli people to come together in front of the Sacred Tent, to [gather around] the descendants of Levi.
Oo reer Laawi waa inaad hor taagtaa teendhada shirka, oo waa inaad soo shirisaa dadka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
10 Then the Israeli people must lay their hands on the descendants of Levi.
Oo reer Laawi waa inaad keentaa Rabbiga hortiisa, oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa inay gacmaha saaraan reer Laawi.
11 Aaron must then present them to me to be a gift from the Israeli people, in order that they can work for me [at the Sacred Tent].
Haaruunna waa inuu reer Laawi Rabbiga hortiisa ugu bixiyaa qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan reer binu Israa'iil daraaddood, si ay u sameeyaan Rabbiga hawshiisa.
12 “After that, the descendants of Levi must place their hands on the heads of the two bulls. Then the bulls will be [killed and] burned on the altar. One will be an offering to enable me [to forgive them for] sins they have committed, and the other will be completely burned [to please me].
Oo reer Laawina waa inay gacmaha saaraan madaxa dibida, oo mid waxaad u bixisaa qurbaan dembi, kan kalena waxaad Rabbiga ugu bixisaa qurbaan la gubo, si aad reer Laawi ugu kafaaro guddid.
13 The descendants of Levi must stand [at the altar] in front of Aaron and his sons, and you must then dedicate to me the descendants of Levi.
Oo reer Laawi waa inaad Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa soo hor taagtaa, oo aad Rabbiga ugu bixisaa qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan.
14 This ritual will show that the descendants of Levi are set apart from the other Israelis and that they belong to me.
Oo waa inaad reer Laawi sidaas uga soocdaa reer binu Israa'iil, oo reer Laawina kuwaygay ahaan doonaan.
15 “After the descendants of Levi have been made acceptable to me, and presented to me like a special offering, they may start to work at the Sacred Tent.
Oo markaas dabadeedna reer Laawi ha u galeen inay ka adeegaan teendhada shirka, oo waa inaad iyaga daahirisaa oo qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan u bixisaa.
16 They will belong to me. They will work for me as substitutes for the firstborn males of all the Israelis, [who also belong to me].
Waayo, iyaga dhammaantood ayaa la iiga soocay reer binu Israa'iil. Intii lay siin lahaa intii maxal furta oo dhan, kuwaasoo ah curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, ayaan iyaga qaatay.
17 All the firstborn males in Israel, both the people and the animals, are mine. When I caused all the firstborn sons of the people of Egypt to die, [I (spared/did not kill) the firstborn males of the Israelis]. I set them apart to belong to me. I said that the firstborn males of all their domestic animals would also belong to me.
Waayo, dad iyo duunyaba curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan anigaa iska leh. Waxaan iyaga quduus ka dhigtay maalintii aan wada laayay curadyadii dalka Masar oo dhan.
18 But now I have chosen the descendants of Levi to take the places of the firstborn males of other Israelis.
Oo waxaan qaatay reer Laawi intii aan qaadan lahaa curadyada reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
19 I have appointed the descendants of Levi to help Aaron and his sons at the Sacred Tent, as Aaron and his sons offer the sacrifices so that the Israeli people’s sins will be forgiven, and to prevent the Israelis from coming close to the tent with the result that a plague would cause many of them to become sick and die.”
Oo reer Laawi ayaan reer binu Israa'iil ka soocay oo hadiyad ahaan u siiyey Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa inay reer binu Israa'iil uga adeegaan teendhada shirka iyo inay reer binu Israa'iil u kafaaro gudaan, si aan belaayo ugu dhicin reer binu Israa'iil markii reer binu Israa'iil ay u soo dhowaadaan meesha quduuska ah.
20 Aaron and Moses/I and the other Israelis helped the descendants of Levi to do everything that Yahweh had commanded.
Oo Muuse iyo Haaruun iyo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu sidaasay ku sameeyeen reer Laawi. Wixii reer Laawi ku saabsanaa ee uu Rabbigu Muuse ku amray oo dhan ayay reer binu Israa'iil wada yeeleen.
21 The descendants of Levi [sprinkled themselves with water to symbolize that] they had been freed/cleansed from [the guilt of] their sins, and they washed their clothes. Then Aaron brought them to [the altar to] present them to Yahweh, and he offered sacrifices to cleanse them from [the guilt of] their sins and cause them to become acceptable to Yahweh.
Oo reer Laawina dembi way iska daahiriyeen, oo dharkoodiina way maydheen, markaasaa Haaruun qurbaan la ruxruxo ahaan Rabbiga hortiisa iyaga ugu bixiyey, oo inuu iyaga daahiriyo aawadeed ayaa Haaruun u kafaaro guday.
22 After that, the descendants of Levi started to work at the Sacred Tent to assist Aaron and his sons. They did that just as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
Oo markaas dabadeed ayaa reer Laawi gudaha u galeen inay teendhada shirka kaga adeegaan Haaruun iyo wiilashiisa hortooda, oo wixii reer Laawi ku saabsanaa ee uu Rabbigu Muuse ku amray ayay ku sameeyeen.
23 Yahweh also said this to Moses/me:
Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
24 “The descendants of Levi who are between 25 and 50 years old will work at the Sacred Tent.
Tanu waa waxa reer Laawi intii shan iyo labaatan sannadood jirta ama ka sii weyn ay leeyihiin inay sameeyaan. Iyagu ha galeen oo ha ka adeegeen hawsha teendhada shirka.
25 But after they become 50 years old, they must (retire/not do that work any more).
Oo markii ay konton jir gaadhaan waa inay ka joogsadaan hawsha ka-adeegiddeeda oo aanay mar dambe adeegin,
26 They may help the other descendants of Levi to do their work at the Sacred Tent, but they must not do the work themselves. That is what you must tell them about the work they will do.”
laakiinse walaalahood teendhada shirka ha kala adeegeen si ay amarka u hayaan laakiinse yaanay hawl dambe qaban. Sidaas waa inaad ka yeeshaa amarrada ku saabsan reer Laawi hawshooda.
