2 “Uno awikala muiya pabitale sha nsudi muifuku dia kutooshibua kuaye, efuku diabamutuala kui tshite muakuidi.
3 Tshite muakuidi akende paasha pa kishalelo na akamutaluula. Su nsudi ngipue,
4 tshite muakuidi akamulungula bua’shi afikie na tonyi tubidi tushi butete tui na muwa, katabi ka mutshi wa sedre, buanda bumonga pididii, na izope bua kutooshibua kuaye.
5 Tshite muakuidi akatumu eyi bua’shi bayipee konyi kamune muilonga dia buma, di na mema abadi batape mu muela.
6 Kadi abitungu aate konyi ke na muwa, katabi ka mutshi wa sedre, na buanda bumonga pididii, na izope ebisabikie pamune mu mase a konyi kabadi bayipee kunundu kua mema abadi batape mu muela.
7 Kunyima, amiamine yawa etoosha ku nsudi yaye mase misango musambobidi, na kuamba’shi te butete, na akaposola konyi ke na muwa mu kisuku.
8 “Yawa etoosha abitungu asuule bilamba biaye na ekuule nyene yaye yoso, na kuitumpa mema, paapa akekala shi butete. Kunyima mmulombene kutuela mu kishalelo, anka akashala paasha pa kashibo kaye k’epema munda mua mafuku musambobidi.
9 Muifuku dia musambobidi, abitungu akuule nyene yaye yoso, akuule miefu na bikienkienyi. Kunyima kuaye kukuula nyene yaye yoso, asuula bilamba biaye na etumpe mema, paapa ekala shi butete.
10 “Muifuku dia muanda, aata mikooko ilume ibidi ikii yana ishi na kilema, mukooko ukashi ushi na kilema wa kipua kimune, kia mbisatu ki’ekumi kia kipimo kia efa* kia bukula bui buwa busangibue na muimu bu mulambu wa ntete, na kipimo kimune kia loge* kia muimu;
11 tshite muakuidi amuamba’shi te butete, ende na yawa muntu etoosha na milambu kumpala kua Yehowa, ku kituelelo kia kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena.
12 Tshite muakuidi akaata mukooko umune ulume ukii wana na kuiulambula bu mulambu wa kuitopeka, pamune na kipimo kimune kia loge kia muimu, na akekipuku aku-naku bu mulambu wa kupuka kumpala kua Yehowa.
13 Kunyima, akayipaa mukooko wana ulume mu mbalo ya kishila, mu mbalo yabayipayilaa mulambu wa muluisho na mulambu wa kushiika kaalo, muanda mulambu wa kuitopeka ngua tshite muakuidi, nka bu mulambu wa muluisho. Nkintu kikile kishila.
14 “Akupu, tshite muakuidi akaata ndambo ya mase a mulambu wa kuitopeka na akeyishingi ku nsongo y’etui dibalume na ku kiala kia mboko ibalume, na ku ena dikata dia mukolo ubalume wa yawa kuete kuitoosha.
15 Tshite muakuidi akaata kipimo kia loge kia muimu, na apongoole ndambo muiyasa diaye dibakashi.
16 Kunyima, tshite muakuidi akasabika munue waye ubalume mu muimu wi muiyasa diaye dibakashi, na kumiamina ndambo ya muimu na munue waye misango musambobidi kumpala kua Yehowa.
17 Paapa tshite muakuidi akashingi ndambo ya muimu aushala muiyasa diaye ku nsongo y’etui dibalume na ku kiala kia mboko ibalume, na ku ena dikata dia mukoolo ubalume wa yawa kuete kuitoosha, kunundu kua mase a mulambu wa kuitopeka.
18 Tshite muakuidi akashingi muimu ushale muiyasa diaye mu mutue mua yawa kuete kuitoosha ku nsudi, na tshite muakuidi akakitshi bia’shi miluisho ya yawa muntu ibuikidiibue kumpala kua Yehowa.
19 “Tshite muakuidi akalambula mulambu wa muluisho na kukita bia’shi yawa muntu atooshibue ku butete buaye, akupu tshite muakuidi akayipaa mulambu wa kushiika kaalo.
20 Tshite muakuidi akalambula mulambu wa kushiika kaalo na mulambu wa ntete pa kilambuilo, na akakitshi bia’shi miluisho ya yawa muntu ibuikiilue, paapa t’akekala’nyi butete.
21 “Kadi su mmulanda na te na mushindo, paapa akaata muana a mukooko mulume bu mulambu wa kuitopeka wa mulambu wa kupuka, bua’shi miluisho yaye ibuikiilue, pamune na ki’ekumi kimune kia kipimo kia efa kia bukula bui buwa busangibue na muimu bu mulambu wa ntete, kipimo kimune kia loge kia muimu,
22 na tukutshikutshi tubidi sunga tuana tua nkudimba tubidi muyile mushindo waye. Kamune akekala bu mulambu wa muluisho, na kangi bu mulambu wa kushiika kaalo.
23 Muifuku dia muanda, akafiki nato kui tshite muakuidi ku kituelelo kia kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena kumpala kua Yehowa, bua kushinkamisha kutooshibua kuaye.
24 “Tshite muakuidi akaata mukooko ulume wana wa mulambu wa kuitopeka, na kipimo kimune kia loge kia muimu, akebipuku aku-naku bu mulambu wa kupuka kumpala kua Yehowa.
25 Akupu, tshite muakuidi akayipaa wawa mukooko wana wa mulambu wa kuitopeka, na akaata ndambo ya mase a wawa mulambu wa kuitopeka na kuiashinga ku nsongo y’etui dibalume na ku kiala kia mboko i balume na ku ena dikata dia mukoolo ubalume wa yawa muntu etoosha.
26 Tshite muakuidi akapongoola ndambo ya muimu muiyasa diaye dibakashi,
27 na munue w’eyasa diaye dibalume, akamiamina ndambo ya muimu wi muiyasa diaye dibakashi misango musambobidi kumpala kua Yehowa.
28 Tshite muakuidi akashingi ndambo ya muimu wi muiyasa diaye ku nsongo ku’etui dibalume, na ku kiala ki’eyasa dibalume na ku ena dikata dia mukoolo ubalume wa yawa kuete kuitoosha, pa yaaya mbalo imune yashinganga mase a mulambu wa kuitopeka.
29 Akupu, tshite muakuidi akashingi muimu ubashala muiyasa diaye mu mutue mua yawa muntu kuete kuitoosha, buadia kukita bia’shi miluisho ya yawa muntu ibuikiilue kumpala kua Yehowa.
30 “Akalambula tukutshikutshi sunga tuana tua nkudimba muyile mushindo wi na yawa muntu,
31 tuatua tonyi tuakapete akatusha kamune bu mulambu wa muluisho, na kangi bu mulambu wa kushiika kaalo pamune na mulambu wa ntete; na tshite muakuidi akakitshi bia’shi miluisho ya yawa muntu etoosha ilekielue kumpala kua Yehowa.
32 “Uno ndio muiya utale muntu baadi na maladi a nsudi, kadi shi na mushindo muifuku dia kutooshibua kuaye.”
33 Akupu, Yehowa balunguile Moyise na Alona’shi:
34 “P’anukatuele mu nsenga ya Kanaana yankenupa bua’shi ikale yenu, na pankambukisha nshibo kampanda ya muiumbo dienu na mukumbo wa nsudi,
35 yawa sha nshibo abitungu afikie alungule tshite muakuidi’shi: ‘Kui mukumbo kampanda ubakuata nshibo yande.’
36 Tshite muakuidi akatumu eyi bua’shi batuushe bintu bioso bi mu nshibo kumpala kua’shi afikie mu kutala yaaya mbalo i mukumbo, tala amba’shi bintu bioso bi mu nshibo bi butete; akupu akatuele mu nshibo bua kuiyitaluula.
37 Akataluula yaaya mbalo ikuatshikie mukumbo, su bimano* bi na mabashi amongolokie na e bulese na aamueneka bu atuele mu bimano,
38 tshite muakuidi akatuuku mu yaaya nshibo na kuiyifunga munda mua mafuku musambobidi.
39 “Muifuku dia musambobidi, tshite muakuidi akalukiila bua kutaluula nshibo. Su mukumbo ngupalakane ku bimano bia nshibo,
40 tshite muakuidi akatumu eyi bua’shi bakaashe mabue akuatshibue na mukumbo, beasumbule paasha pa kibundi mu mbalo y’abasumbuilaa bintu bi butete.
41 Paapa abitungu akooleeshe munda mua nshibo kalolo, biabia bintu bi’abakoolo na bintu biabekalanga bemushine bi’abalamuna, abakebisumbula paasha pa kibundi mu mbalo y’abasumbuilaa bintu bi butete.
42 Abakalusha angi mabue pa mbalo ya aa mabue abekeele bakatushe, na abakaata ungi potopoto buabadia kushina mu nshibo.
43 “Kadi su mukumbo ubalukiila mu nshibo kunyima kuabo kulamuna mabue, na kuimukoola, na kushina dia kabidi,
44 tshite muakuidi akatuele mu nshibo na kuiyitaluula. Su mukumbo ngupalakane mu nshibo, yaaya nsudi i bukopo i mu nshibo. Yaaya nshibo i butete.
45 Paapa akabumbusha nshibo, na kusemuisha mabue, mabaaya na bintu bioso biabekalanga bashine na balamikie mu nshibo paasha pa kibundi ku mbalo yabasumbuilaa bintu bi butete.
46 Kadi muntu oso atuele mu nshibo mu mafuku abaadi beyifungie, ekala butete mpa na ku kiolua;
47 muntu oso alaala mu yaaya nshibo abitungu asuule bilamba biaye, na muntu oso emudiila abitungu asuule bilamba biaye.
48 “Kadi su tshite muakuidi afika na amona’shi mukumbo ta ngupalakane mu nshibo kunyima kuabo kuiyishina dia kabidi, paapa akamba’shi nshibo tayi butete, muanda mukumbo ubapu.
49 Bua’shi nshibo tayikalanga butete, akaata tonyi tubidi, katabi ka mutshi wa sedre, buanda bumonga pididii na izope.
50 Akayipaa konyi kamune muilonga dia buma, di na mema abadi batape mu musulo.
51 Akupu aata katabi ka mutshi wa sedre, izope, buanda bumonga pididii na konyi kashale na muwa, ebisabikie mu mase a konyi kekele muipee na mu mema abadi batape mu musulo, na abitungu ebimiamine ku nshibo misango musambobidi.
52 Akayikasha nshibo bu ishi butete na mase a konyi, mema abadi batape mu musulo, konyi ke na muwa, katabi ka mutshi wa sedre, izope na buanda bumonga pididii.
53 Kunyima akapoosola konyi ke na muwa mu kisuku paasha pa kibundi na kutoosha nshibo, paapa tayikala butete nya.
54 “Uno nyi muiya pabitale nsudi ya mishindo yoso, ya ku kikoba kia ku mutue sunga ku kisaa,
55 nsudi ya ku bilamba sunga ya mu nshibo,
56 na pabitale biwulua, mpapa na mabashi,
57 bua kutala su kintu kampanda ki butete na su ta ki butete. Uno mmuiya pabitale nsudi.”
