Amakondeere Aga Ffeeza

10 Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, (A)“Weesa mu ffeeza amakondeere abiri ogakozesenga okuyitanga abantu bonna okukuŋŋaana, era n’okubalagira okuggyawo ensiisira zaabwe. Amakondeere gombi bwe ganaafuuyibwanga, ekibiina ky’abantu bonna banaakuŋŋaaniranga w’oli ku mulyango gwa Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu. (B)Naye bwe banaafuuwangako erimu, olwo abakulembeze, be bakulu b’ebika bya Isirayiri, be banaakuŋŋaaniranga w’oli. (C)Amakondeere ag’omwanguka bwe ganaafuuyibwanga, ebika ebinaabanga bisiisidde ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba binaasitulanga okutambula. (D)Ate bwe banaafuuwanga ag’omwanguka omulundi ogwokubiri, ensiisira ezinaabanga mu bukiikaddyo, zinaasitulanga okutambula. Amakondeere ag’omwanguka ke kanaabanga akabonero akanaabategeezanga nti basitule batambule. (E)Naye bwe kineetaagisanga okukuba olukuŋŋaana, onoofuuwanga amakondeere naye tegaabenga ga mwanguka.

(F)“Abaana ba Alooni, bakabona, be banaafuuwanga amakondeere. Lino linaabanga tteeka ery’enkalakkalira mu mmwe ne mu mirembe egigenda okujja. (G)Bwe munaagendanga okutabaala omulabe abajoogerereza mu nsi yammwe, mufuuwanga amakondeere ag’omwanguka. Bwe mutyo munajjukirwanga Mukama Katonda, era anaabawonyanga abalabe bammwe. 10 (H)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 Mukama Katonda wammwe. Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.”

Okuva mu Sinaayi

11 (I)Awo olwatuuka ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu mwezi ogwokubiri mu mwaka ogwokubiri, ekire ne kisitulibwa okuva waggulu wa Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu. 12 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne basitula ne batambula okuva mu Ddungu lya Sinaayi, oluvannyuma ekire ne kiyimirira mu Ddungu lya Palani. 13 (J)Ogwo gwe gwali omulundi omubereberye okusitula okutambula nga bagendera ku kiragiro kya Mukama Katonda kye yayisa mu Musa.

14 (K)Olusiisira lw’abaana ba Yuda lwe lwasooka okusitula okutambula, nga bakulemberwa ebendera yaabwe; Nakusoni mutabani wa Amminadaabu nga ye muduumizi waabwe. 15 Nesaneri mutabani wa Zuwaali ye yaduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Isakaali, 16 ne Eriyaabu mutabani wa Keroni n’aduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Zebbulooni. 17 (L)Eweema ya Mukama n’esimbulwa, batabani ba Gerusoni ne batabani ba Merali abaagyetikkanga ne basitula ne batambula.

18 (M)Ebibinja by’omu lusiisira lwa Lewubeeni bye byaddako okusitula okutambula awamu n’ebendera yaabyo, nga biduumirwa Erizuuli mutabani wa Sedewuli. 19 Serumiyeeri mutabani wa Zulisadaayi ye yaduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Simyoni, 20 ne Eriyasaafu mutabani wa Deweri n’aduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Gaadi. 21 (N)Abakokasi ne basitula okutambula nga beetisse ebintu ebitukuvu. Eweema ya Mukama ng’emala kusimbibwa, nabo ne balyoka batuuka.

22 (O)Ebibinja by’omu lusiisira lwa Efulayimu bye byaddirira okusitula okutambula awamu n’ebendera yaabyo; Erisaama mutabani wa Ammikudi nga ye muduumizi waabyo. 23 Gamalyeri mutabani wa Pidazuuli ye yaduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Manase; 24 ne Abidaani mutabani wa Gidyoni n’aduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Benyamini.

25 (P)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. 26 Pagiyeeri mutabani wa Okulaani ye yaduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Aseri; 27 ne Akira mutabani wa Enani n’aduumira ekibinja ky’ekika kya Nafutaali. 28 Eyo ye yali entegeka ey’abaana ba Isirayiri ng’ebibinja byabwe bwe byali nga basitula okutambula.

29 (Q)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 (R)Naye n’addamu nti, “Nedda, sijja kugenda nammwe, nzirayo mu nsi ye waffe era mu bantu bange.”

31 (S)Naye Musa n’amugamba nti, “Nkwegayiridde totuleka. Ggwe omanyi obulungi eddungu gye tusaanye okukuba olusiisira lwaffe, ggwe ojja okubeera amaaso gaffe. 32 (T)Singa ojja ne tugenda ffenna, tunaagabaniranga wamu buli kirungi kyonna Mukama ky’anaatuwanga.”

Essanduuko ey’Endagaano, n’Ekire Ekikulemberamu

33 (U)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 (V)Buli lwe baasitulanga okutambula nga bava mu lusiisira, ekire kya Mukama Katonda kyabeeranga waggulu waabwe buli budde bwa misana.

35 (W)Buli abeetissi b’Essanduuko ya Mukama Katonda lwe baasitulanga okutambula, Musa n’agamba nti,

“Golokoka, Ayi Mukama!
    Abalabe bo basaasaane;
    amaggye agakulwanyisa gakudduke.”

36 (X)Buli Ssanduuko ya Mukama Katonda lwe yawummuzibwanga, Musa n’agamba nti,

“Komawo, Ayi Mukama,
    eri enkumi n’enkumi eza Isirayiri.”

10 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.

And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.

When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.

When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.

But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.

And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations.

And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the Lord your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.

10 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the Lord your God.

11 And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year, that the cloud was taken up from off the tabernacle of the testimony.

12 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran.

13 And they first took their journey according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

14 In the first place went the standard of the camp of the children of Judah according to their armies: and over his host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab.

15 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel the son of Zuar.

16 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.

17 And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle.

18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur.

19 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.

20 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.

21 And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the other did set up the tabernacle against they came.

22 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward according to their armies: and over his host was Elishama the son of Ammihud.

23 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.

24 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.

25 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set forward, which was the rereward of all the camps throughout their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.

26 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran.

27 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.

28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when they set forward.

29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel 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.

30 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.

31 And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes.

32 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what goodness the Lord shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee.

33 And they departed from the mount of the Lord three days' journey: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them in the three days' journey, to search out a resting place for them.

34 And the cloud of the Lord was upon them by day, when they went out of the camp.

35 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, Lord, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee.

36 And when it rested, he said, Return, O Lord, unto the many thousands of Israel.

The Silver Trumpets

10 The Lord said to Moses: “Make two trumpets(A) of hammered silver, and use them for calling the community(B) together and for having the camps set out.(C) When both are sounded, the whole community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting. If only one is sounded, the leaders(D)—the heads of the clans of Israel—are to assemble before you. When a trumpet blast is sounded, the tribes camping on the east are to set out.(E) At the sounding of a second blast, the camps on the south are to set out.(F) The blast will be the signal for setting out. To gather the assembly, blow the trumpets,(G) but not with the signal for setting out.(H)

“The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to blow the trumpets. This is to be a lasting ordinance for you and the generations to come.(I) When you go into battle in your own land against an enemy who is oppressing you,(J) sound a blast on the trumpets.(K) Then you will be remembered(L) by the Lord your God and rescued from your enemies.(M) 10 Also at your times of rejoicing—your appointed festivals and New Moon feasts(N)—you are to sound the trumpets(O) over your burnt offerings(P) and fellowship offerings,(Q) and they will be a memorial for you before your God. I am the Lord your God.(R)

The Israelites Leave Sinai

11 On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year,(S) the cloud lifted(T) from above the tabernacle of the covenant law.(U) 12 Then the Israelites set out from the Desert of Sinai and traveled from place to place until the cloud came to rest in the Desert of Paran.(V) 13 They set out, this first time, at the Lord’s command through Moses.(W)

14 The divisions of the camp of Judah went first, under their standard.(X) Nahshon son of Amminadab(Y) was in command. 15 Nethanel son of Zuar was over the division of the tribe(Z) of Issachar,(AA) 16 and Eliab son of Helon(AB) was over the division of the tribe of Zebulun.(AC) 17 Then the tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonites and Merarites, who carried it, set out.(AD)

18 The divisions of the camp of Reuben(AE) went next, under their standard.(AF) Elizur son of Shedeur(AG) was in command. 19 Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was over the division of the tribe of Simeon,(AH) 20 and Eliasaph son of Deuel was over the division of the tribe of Gad.(AI) 21 Then the Kohathites(AJ) set out, carrying the holy things.(AK) The tabernacle was to be set up before they arrived.(AL)

22 The divisions of the camp of Ephraim(AM) went next, under their standard. Elishama son of Ammihud(AN) was in command. 23 Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was over the division of the tribe of Manasseh,(AO) 24 and Abidan son of Gideoni was over the division of the tribe of Benjamin.(AP)

25 Finally, as the rear guard(AQ) for all the units, the divisions of the camp of Dan set out under their standard. Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai(AR) was in command. 26 Pagiel son of Okran was over the division of the tribe of Asher,(AS) 27 and Ahira son of Enan was over the division of the tribe of Naphtali.(AT) 28 This was the order of march for the Israelite divisions as they set out.

29 Now Moses said to Hobab(AU) son of Reuel(AV) the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law,(AW) “We are setting out for the place about which the Lord said, ‘I will give it to you.’(AX) Come with us and we will treat you well, for the Lord has promised good things to Israel.”

30 He answered, “No, I will not go;(AY) I am going back to my own land and my own people.(AZ)

31 But Moses said, “Please do not leave us. You know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.(BA) 32 If you come with us, we will share with you(BB) whatever good things the Lord gives us.(BC)

33 So they set out(BD) from the mountain of the Lord and traveled for three days. The ark of the covenant of the Lord(BE) went before them during those three days to find them a place to rest.(BF) 34 The cloud of the Lord was over them by day when they set out from the camp.(BG)

35 Whenever the ark set out, Moses said,

“Rise up,(BH) Lord!
    May your enemies be scattered;(BI)
    may your foes flee before you.(BJ)(BK)

36 Whenever it came to rest, he said,

“Return,(BL) Lord,
    to the countless thousands of Israel.(BM)
