Gadili Asi 16
1 Isala: ili fi huluane da Ilimi soge yolesili, logoga asi. Ilia da Idibidi yolesili oubi aduna logoga asi. Eso ba: amo oubi ganodini, ilia da wadela: i hafoga: i soge amo Sini amoga doaga: i. La: di da Ilimi amola la: di da Sainai. Sini soge da mogoa dialu.
They/We left Elim, and all the Israeli people came to the desert [named] Sin. That is between Elim and Sinai [Mountain]. That was on the fifteenth day of the second month after they/we left Egypt.
2 Amogai, wadela: i soge amoga, ilia da Mousese amola Elane elama sia: ga gegene egai.
There in the desert, the Israeli [HYP] people complained to Aaron and Moses/me.
3 Ilia da elama amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da nini huluane Idibidi soge ganodini medole legemu da defea galu. Amogai ninia da fili, hu amola ha: i manu eno, ninia hanai amo defele manusa: dawa: i galu. Be alia da nini amo wadela: i hafoga: i soge amoga ha: ga bogoma: ne oule misi dagoi.”
They said to them/us, “We wish that Yahweh had killed us in Egypt! There we had meat to eat, and all the bread that we wanted. But you have brought us into this desert in order that we will all starve to death!”
4 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Na da wali agoane hamomu. Ha: i manu da gibu agoane muagado dilima sanasimu. Dunu da eso huluane ilia amo esoga nasu defele ha: i manu lidimusa: masunu. Amasea, Na da ilia hou ado ba: mu. Ilia da Na sia: nabawane hamoma: bela: ?
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen to what I am going [to do]. I am going to send something from the sky that will [take the place of] bread for all of you. When I do that, the people must go out of their tents every day and gather just enough to eat on that day. [When I do that], I will find out whether they will obey my instructions or not.
5 Eso gafe amoga, ilia da eso aduna defele ha: i manu diasuga gaguli misa: ma.”
On the sixth day [after I start doing that], they will be able to gather twice as much as on the other days, [and not have to gather any on the seventh day]. Then they can prepare it [to eat it on the 6th and 7th days].”
6 Amaiba: le, Mousese amola Elane da Isala: ili dunu huluane ilima amane sia: i, “Wali daeya dilia Hina Gode da dili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne asunasili, guiguda: oule misi, amo dilia da noga: le dawa: mu.
So Aaron and Moses/I said to all the Israeli people, “This evening you will know that it was Yahweh, [not we], who brought you out of Egypt.
7 Hahabe dilia da Hina Gode Ea hadigi sinenemigi bagade ba: mu. E da dilia Ema sia: ga egasu nabi dagoi. Dafawane! Amo egasu da Godema sia: ga gegesu. Ania da Ea sia: nabawane hamosu fawane.”
And tomorrow morning you will see how great Yahweh is, because he has heard what you have complained about. He is the one whom you have really complained to, because we are just his servants.” [RHQ]
8 Amalalu, Mousese da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da daeya hu dilima imunu amola hahabe agi dilia hanai defele amo dilima imunu. Bai E da dilia Ema egasu nabi dagoi. Dilia da anima sia: ga gegesea, dilia da dafawane Hina Gode Ema fawane sia: ga gegesa.”
Then Moses/I also said, “[From now on, each] evening Yahweh will give you meat to eat, and [each] morning he will give you [something that will take the place of] bread, because he has heard what you have complained about. Yahweh is the one to whom you have really complained, not us. We are just his servants.” [RHQ]
9 Mousese da Elanema amane sia: i, “Isala: ili dunu fi huluane misa: ne amola Gode ba: ma: ne leloma: ne sia: ma. Bai E da ilia egasu nabi dagoi.”
Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “Tell all the Israeli people, ‘Come and stand here in the presence of Yahweh, because he has heard what you have been complaining about.’”
10 Elane da Isala: ili dunu fi huluane ilima sia: noba, ilia da delegili wadela: i soge amoga ba: le, hedolowane Hina Gode Ea hadigi sinenemigi baligili bagadedafa mumobi ganodini dialebe ba: i.
So Aaron told them that. And as Aaron was talking to all the Israeli people, they looked toward the desert, and were surprised to see the (dazzling light/incredible brightness) of Yahweh in the cloud [that had been leading them].
11 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
12 “Na da Isala: ili dunu ilia egasu nabi dagoi. Ilia da daeya hu manu ba: mu amola hahabe agi ilia sadimusa: defele ba: mu, amo ilima adoma. Amasea, ilia da Na da ilia Hina Gode, amo dawa: mu.”
“I have heard what the Israeli people have been complaining about. So say to them, ‘From now on, each evening, you will have meat to eat. And each morning you will have something that will take the place of bread. You will have all you want of it to eat.’ Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
13 Daeya, sio fi ilia dio ‘gowa: ili’ amo wa: i bagadewane da misini amola ilia abula moilai dedeboi dagoi. Amola hahabe oubi baiya agoane ilia esalebe sogega sa: i dagoi ba: i.
That evening, (quails/small plump birds) appeared, and [there were so many that] they covered the campsite. The next morning there was [something like] dew all around the campsite.
14 Oubi baiya da esoga hafoga: loba, liligi amo da sua: agi fonobahadi amo osoboga dialebe ba: i. Amo liligi da asaboi mugene o gagoma fage agoane ba: i.
When the dew evaporated, on the surface of the desert there was a thick layer of something that looked like white flakes. It looked like frost.
15 Isala: ili dunu da amo ba: loba, amo ea hou hame dawa: beba: le, amane gilisili sia: dasu, “Goe adila: ?” (‘ma: na’ dawa: loma: ne da “Goe adila: ?”) Mousese da ilima bu adole i, “Amo da ha: i manu Hina Gode da dilima i dagoi.
When the Israeli people saw it, since they [had never seen it before and] did not know what it was, they said to each other, “What is it?” Moses/I replied to them, “It is something Yahweh has given you to eat, to take the place of bread.
16 Hina Gode da agoane sia: sa. Dili da dili manu defele amo liligi lidima. Dunu amola uda amola mano afae afae ofodo fonobahadi (‘lida’ aduna defei agoane) amo defele lama: mu.”
This is what Yahweh has commanded: ‘Each of you should gather as much as you need to eat. Gather two quarts/liters for each person who lives in your tents.’”
17 Isala: ili dunu da Mousese ea sia: defele hamoi. Oda da bagade lidi, oda da fonobahadi lidi.
So that is what the Israeli people did. Some gathered more and some gathered less.
18 Be lidi liligi ea defei ba: loba, dunu da bagade lidi da baligili lai dagoi hame ba: i amola nowa da fonobahadi lidi amo ea lai da defele ba: i dagoi. Dunu huluane da e sadima: ne lai dagoi ba: i.
But when they measured [what they had gathered], those that had gathered a lot did not have anything left over. And those that gathered less still had enough to eat. Each person gathered just what they needed.
19 Mousese da ilima amane sia: i, “Amo ha: i manu aya manusa: mae ligisima.”
Moses/I said to them, “Do not leave any of it to eat tomorrow morning!”
20 Be oda da Mousese ea sia: mae nabawane, ha: i manu mogili aya manusa: ligisi. Be aya hahabe amo da dasaiba: le gaha bagade nabi amola ifidi amoga nabai ba: i. Amo ba: beba: le, Mousese da ilima ougi galu.
But some of them did not pay any attention to what Moses/I said. They kept some of it until the next morning. But it was full of maggots and smelled rotten. And that made Moses/me angry.
21 Hahabe huluane, dunu huluane da e sadima: ne, ‘ma: na’ lidi dagoi. Amola eso da gia: noba, hame lidi liligi osoboga dialu da daeane ebelei ba: i.
Each morning they gathered as much as they needed. But [later], when the sun got hot, [what was left on the ground] melted.
22 Eso gafe amoga ilia da eso aduna moma: ne defele dunu afae afae da ofodo fonobahadi aduna lidi (‘lida’ biyadu agoane). Isala: ili asigilai ouligisu ilia da Mousesema amo hou adola misi.
On the sixth day after they started gathering it, each person was able to gather four quarts/liters, which was twice [as much as they gathered on the other days]. When the leaders of the people came to Moses/me and told him/me [about that],
23 Amola e da ilima amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, ‘Aya eso fesu eso da Ema dawa: ma: ne helefisu eso ganumu.’ Wali eso dilia hanaiga ha: i manu gobema amola gia: ma. Ha: i manu hame mai diala amo aya manusa: ligisima.”
Moses/I said to them, “This is what Yahweh has commanded: ‘Tomorrow will be a day for you to rest completely. It will be a day dedicated to Yahweh. So today, bake or boil what you will [need for today and for tomorrow]. Whatever is left [this evening], you should put aside and keep it [to eat] tomorrow.’”
24 Ilia da Mousese ea sia: defele hamoi. Ha: i manu hame mai dialu ilia da aya manusa: ligisi. Amo da hame dasai amola ifidi da amoga hame sa: i.
So they did what Moses/I commanded. What was left over, they kept until the next day. It did not spoil and did not get maggots in it!
25 Mousese da amane sia: i, “Amo ha: i manu wali wega moma. Bai wali da Sa: bade eso, amo helefisu eso Hina Godema dawa: ma: ne hamoi. Dilia diasu gadili ha: i manu hame ba: mu.
[On that day], Moses/I said, “Eat today [what you have saved from yesterday], because today is a day dedicated to Yahweh. Today you will not find any of that food outside.
26 Dilia da eso gafeyale gala amoga ha: i manu lidima. Be eso fesu amoga, amo da helefisu eso, amola dilia da ha: i manu hame ba: mu.”
[Every week], you must gather it for six days; but on the seventh day, which will be a day of rest, you will not find any.”
27 Be eso fesu amoga, dunu mogili da gadili ha: i manu hogola asi. Be amo ilia hame ba: i.
On the seventh day, some of the people went outside their tents to gather some of that food, but there was none.
28 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Isala: ili fi da habogala gasa fi hou fisili Na sia: noga: le nabima: bela: ?
Then Yahweh [told Moses/me to say this to] the people: “How long will you people refuse to do all the things that I tell you?
29 Mae gogolema! Na, Hina Gode, da dilima helefisu eso i dagoi. Amaiba: le, Na da eso gafeyale amoga mae fisili dilima ha: i manu eso adunaga moma: ne defele dilima imunu. Dunu huluanedafa da eso fesu amoga hi diasu mae fisili, helefima: ne esaloma: mu.
Listen! Yahweh has given you a day of rest. So on the sixth day [of each week], he will be giving you enough of this food for two days. Each of you should stay in his tent [and do no work] on the seventh day!”
30 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da eso fesu amoga hawa: hame hamosu.
So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 Isala: ili dunu da amo ha: i manu ‘ma: na’ dio asuli. E da fage ahea: ya: i fonobahadi agoane ba: i. Ea gamini nasu da agi gobei amola agime hano gilisi agoane ba: i.
The Israeli people called this food manna, [which sounds like the words in their language that mean ‘what is it]?’ It looked like small seeds [called] coriander, but it was white, and it tasted like thin wafers/biscuits made with honey.
32 Mousese da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da ninima amane sia: i, ‘Ma: na’ mogili diligaga fi ba: ma: ne la: didili ligisima. Ilia ha: i manu amo Hina Gode da dilia Idibidi sogega gadili oule asili, wadela: i soge amoga dilia moma: ne i, amo ilia ba: mu da defea.”
Moses/I said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded: ‘You must keep two quarts/liters of it for all future generations, so that they can see the [food that took the place of] bread that I gave to your [ancestors] when I brought them out of Egypt.’”
33 Amalalu, Mousese da Elanema amane sia: i, “Di ofodo agoai osoboga hamoi ‘lida’ aduna defei agoane amo lale, ‘ma: na’ amo ganodini salima. Amalalu, Hina Gode ba: ma: ne noga: le ligisima. Amasea, fa: no ninigaga fi da amo liligi ba: mu.”
And he/I said to Aaron, “Take a jar, and put two quarts of manna in it. Then put it [in a place] where Yahweh can see it. It is to be kept like that for all future generations.”
34 Hina Gode da Mousesema sia: i amo defele, Elane da amo lale, dialoma: ne Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili ea ba: le gaidiga ligisi.
[Many years later], as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me, Aaron put the jar in front of the box [that contained the stone slabs on which] the Ten Commandments [were written].
35 Isala: ili dunu da ode 40 eno amoga ‘ma: na’ nasu. Amogainini ilia Ga: ina: ne sogega doaga: le esalu.
The Israeli people were able to eat manna [every day] for 40 years, until they came to the border of Canaan land.
36 (Amo esoga, hafoga: i sema defei ilegei da 20 ‘lida’ agoane ba: i.)
(The standard measure [that they used at that time] held 20 quarts/liters.)
