1 Goula (e da Aisiha ea mano amola ea fi da Lifai amola ea sosogo fi da Gouha: de), e da gasa fili, Mousesema odoga: i. Liubene fi dunu udiana (Ilaia: be ea mano aduna amo Da: idia: ne, Abaila: me amola Bilede ea mano amo One) amola Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu 250 (Isala: ili fi dunuga ilegei ouligisu dunu) ilia da Goula gilisili Mousesema odoga: i.
One day Korah, who was the son of Izhar and a descendant of Levi’s son Kohath, conspired with Dathan and Abiram, who were the sons of Eliab, and On, who was the son of Peleth. Those three men were from the tribe of Reuben.
2
Korah and those other three men incited 250 other people who were leaders among the Israeli people to join them in rebelling against Moses/me.
3 Ilia da Mousese amola Elane ela midadi gilisili, amane sia: i, “Alia hou da gasa fili, baligi dagoi! Ninia fi dunu huluane da Hina Gode Ea: ! Amola Hina Gode da nini huluane gilisili esala! Amaiba: le, Mousese, di abuliba: le ninima hina agoane hamosala: ?”
They came together to criticize Aaron and Moses/me. They said to them/us, “You two are using more [authority] than you should! Yahweh has set apart all of us Israeli people, and he is with/helping all of us. So why do you act as though you are more important than the rest of us people who belong to Yahweh [RHQ]?”
4 Mousese da amo sia: nababeba: le, hi osoboga gala: lasa: ili, Godema sia: ne gadoi.
When Moses/I heard what they were saying, he/I prostrated himself/myself on the ground.
5 Amasea, e da Goula amola ema fa: no bobogesu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Aya hahabe, Hina Gode da nowa da Ea: fidafa, amo olelemu. E da Ea ilegei dunu, Ema oloda gadenene doaga: ma: ne logo doasimu.
Then he/I said to Korah and those [Israeli leaders] who were with Korah, “Tomorrow morning Yahweh will show us whom he has chosen to be his [priest], and who is holy and allowed to come near to him. Yahweh will permit [only] those whom he chooses to come into his presence.
6 Aya hahabe, dilia amola dilia fa: no bobogesu dunu, amo lalu gasa: le legesu ofodo lale, amo ganodini laluoso amola gabusiga: manoma salawane, oloda amoma gaguli misa. Amasea, ninia da Hina Gode Ea ilegei dunu dawa: mu. Dilia Lifai dunu, dilia fawane da gasa fili baligi dagoi!”
So Korah, tomorrow you and those who are with you must prepare your pans to burn incense.
7
Then you must light a fire in them and burn the incense in the presence of Yahweh. Then we will see which one of us Yahweh has chosen to be his holy servant. It is you men who are descendants of Levi who are trying to use more [authority] than you should!”
8 Mousese da bu Goula ema amane sia: i, “Dilia Lifai dunu! Nabima!
Then Moses/I spoke again to Korah. He/I said, “You men who are descendants of Levi, listen to me!
9 Isala: ili Gode da dili eno Isala: ili fi amoga afafai dagoi. Bai dilia da Ema misini, Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasu ganodini hawa: hamoma: ne amola Isala: ili fi ilima fidisu hou hamoma: ne E da dilima ilegei. Dilia adi dawa: bela: ? Amo da hamedei hou, dilia dawa: bela: ?
The God of us Israelis has chosen all of you to be close to him in order that you can work for him at his Sacred Tent and serve the people. (Is that unimportant/Does that mean nothing) to you [RHQ]?
10 Hina Gode da amo gadodafa nodoma: ne hou dilima i dagoi. Be amo mae dawa: le, dilia da gobele salasu hou amola lamusa: dawa: lala.
Yahweh has brought you, [Korah], and your fellow descendants of Levi, near to himself. Now are you demanding to become priests also?
11 Dilia da Elanema egane sia: sea, dilia da ema hame egasa. Be dilia dafawane Hina Gode Ema egane odoga: sa.”
It is really Yahweh against whom you and your fellow descendants of Levi are rebelling. Aaron is not the one about whom you are really complaining [RHQ].”
12 Amalalu, Mousese da Da: ida: ne amola Abaila: me ela ema misa: ne sia: si. Be ela da amane sia: i, “Ania da hame misunu!
Then Moses/I summoned Dathan and Abiram, but [they refused to come]. They [sent a message] saying, “We will not come to you!
13 Di da nini Idibidi nasegagi soge amoga fisili masa: ne, goeguda: wadela: i soge ganodini medole legema: ne oule misi. Amo da defeala: ? Be amo baligili, di abuliba: le ninima hina agoane hamosala: ?
You brought us out of Egypt, which was a very fertile [IDM] land, in order to cause us to die here in this desert. That was bad. But now you are also trying to boss us [RHQ], and that is worse.
14 Di da ninima nasegagi soge amola soge amola waini sagai ninia gaguma: ne hamedafa i. Amola wali di da ninima ogogomusa: dawa: lala. Ania da hamedafa misunu.”
You have not given us a new land to live in, a land that has good fields and vineyards. You are only trying to [RHQ] trick these people. So we will not come to you.”
15 Mousese da ougi bagade ba: i. E da Hina Godema amane sia: i “Amo dunu da Dima iasu gaguli masea, mae lama! Na da ilia dunu afae amoma wadela: le hamedafa hamoi. Na da ilia dougi afae hamedafa lai.”
Then Moses/I became very angry. He/I said to Yahweh, “Do not accept the grain offerings that they have brought. I have not taken anything from them, not even one donkey, and I have never done anything wrong to them, [so they have no reason to complain about me].”
16 Mousese da Goula ema amane sia: i, “Aya, di amola dia 250 fa: no bobogesu dunu amo Hina Gode Ea Abula Diasuga misa. Elane amola da amogawi esalebe ba: mu.
Then Moses/I said to Korah, “You and all those who are with you must come here tomorrow and stand in front of Yahweh. Aaron will also be here.
17 Dilia afae afae laluoso gasa: le legesu lale, gabusiga: manoma amoga ligisili, oloda amoga gaguli misini, olelema.”
You and all the 250 men who are with you must each take a pan in which to burn incense, and put incense in it, to [burn it to be] an offering to Yahweh. Aaron will do the same thing.”
18 Amaiba: le, ilia da dunu afae afae da ilia laluoso gasa: le legesu lale, amo ganodini laluoso amola gabusiga: manoma salawane, ilia amola Mousese amola Elane da Abula Diasu holeiga lelu.
So [the next day] each of those men got a pan to burn incense. They put in it incense and hot coals to light it, and then they all stood at the entrance of the Sacred Tent with Aaron and Moses/me.
19 Amalalu, Goula da Isala: ili fi huluane gilisili, ilia da Mousese amola Elane ela midadi Abula Diasu ea logo holeiga lelu. Amalalu, hedolowane, Hina Gode E esalagalebeia dawa: loma: ne sinenemegi hadigi da dunu huluane ba: ma: ne misi.
Then Korah summoned all the people who supported him and who were against Moses/me, and they also gathered at the entrance of the tent. Then the glory of Yahweh appeared to all of them/us,
20 Hina Gode da Mousese amola Elanema amane sia: i,
and Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
21 “Masa! Amo dunuma mae gilisima! Na da wahadafa ili dafawanedafa wadela: lesimu!”
“Get away from all these people, in order that I can get rid of them immediately!”
22 Be Mousese amola Elane da osoboga mi bugila sa: ili, beguduli, amane sia: i, “Gode! Di da esalusu huluane ea bai gala. Dunu afae fawane da wadela: le hamoiba: le, Di da fi dunu huluane ilima ougima: bela: ?”
But Aaron and Moses/I prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground. We pleaded with Yahweh, saying, “God, you are the one who caused all these people to live [MTY]. Only one of these men has sinned; so, (is it right for you to be angry with all the people?/it is not right for you to be angry with all the people!) [RHQ]”
23 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
24 “Dunu huluane ilia da Goula, Da: ida: ne amola Abaila: me ilia abula diasu yolesili, sogebi enoga masa: ne sia: ma!”
“[Okay], but tell all the people to get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.”
25 Amalalu, Mousese, amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu, ilia da Da: ida: ne amola Abaila: me elama asi.
So Moses/I stood up and went to the tents of Dathan and Abiram. The Israeli leaders followed him/me.
26 Mousese da Isala: ili dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Amo wadela: i hamosu dunu ilia abula diasu yolesili, gadenene mae leloma! Ilia liligi huluanedafa mae digili ba: ma! Dilia agoane hame hamosea, dilia da ilia wadela: i hamoiba: le bogobe defele, dilia amola da bogomu.”
He/I told the people, “Get away from the tents of these wicked men, and do not touch anything that belongs to them! If you touch anything, you will die because of their sins!”
27 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da Goula, Da: ida: ne amola Abaila: me ilia abula diasu yolesili asi. Da: ida: ne amola Abaila: me da ilia abula diasuga gadili asili, ela, elea uda amola mano da abula diasu logo holeiga lelebe ba: i.
So all the people moved away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Dathan and Abiram came out of their tents with their wives and children and babies, and stood at the entrances of their tents.
28 Mousese da Isala: ili dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia waha ba: mu liligi amoga, Hina Gode da na amo hou hamoma: ne asunasi amo dawa: mu. Amola na da na hanaiga hame hamoi amo dawa: mu.
Then Moses/I said, “I was not the one who decided to do all these things that I have done. It was Yahweh who [chose me and] sent me to do them. And now he will prove that to you.
29 Amo dunu da osobo bagade dunu ilia esalusu hou defele, Gode Ea se dabe mae lale, udigili bogosea, defea, Hina Gode da na hame asunasi dawa: ma.
If these men die in a normal way, then it will be clear that Yahweh did not choose me.
30 Be Hina Gode da hou musa: hame ba: i hamosea, amola osobo ea lafi da dagale, dunu amola ilia liligi huluane amo mogo salasea, amola ilia esaleawane udigili bogoi sogega gudu dasea, amo dunu da Hina Gode da ilima higale yolesi dagoi dilia da dawa: mu.” (Sheol h7585)
But if Yahweh does something that has never happened before, if he causes the ground [that is under their feet] to open up and swallow these men [and their families] and all their possessions, and they fall into the opening and are buried while they are still alive, then you will know that these men have insulted Yahweh.” (Sheol h7585)
31 Mousese da sia: i dagoloba, hedolowane Da: ida: ne amola Abaila: me ela lelebe hagudu dialu osobo da lafi agoane dagale gai.
As soon as Moses/I said this, the ground split open beneath those men.
32 Osobo da ela amola elea sosogo fi amola Goula ea fa: no bobogesu dunu amola ilia liligi huluane amo mogosali dagoi.
It swallowed them and their families and all those who were standing there with Korah and all of their possessions.
33 Amaiba: le, ilia amola ilia liligi huluane da mae bogole, bogoi sogega gudu sa: i. Ilia gudu sa: i dagoloba, osobo ea lafi da bu ga: si. Ilia da bu hamedafa ba: i. (Sheol h7585)
They fell into the opening in the ground while they were still alive, and all their possessions fell into the opening also. They disappeared, and the ground closed back up again. (Sheol h7585)
34 Isala: ili dunu huluane da disa wesu nababeba: le, hobea: i. Ilia da amane wei, “Hobea: ma! Osobo da nini amola mogosalasa: besa: le, hehenama!”
They screamed as they fell, and all the people who were standing nearby heard them scream. The people [were terrified and] cried out as they ran away, saying, “[We do not want] the ground to swallow us also!”
35 Amalalu, Hina Gode da lalu iasi. Amo da nene gadole, dunu250 amo da gabusiga: manoma i, amo huluane nei dagoi.
And then a fire from Yahweh came down [from the sky] and burned up the 250 men who were burning the incense!
36 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
37 “Elia: isa (gobele salasu dunu Elane egefe) ema, e da balase laluoso gasa: le legesu amo dunu laluga nei ilia da: i hodo amo lale, laluoso amo da ilia laluoso gasa: le legesu ganodini diala amo soge enoga afagogoma: ne sia: ma! Bai amo laluoso gasa: le legesu da hadigi ilegei gala.
“Tell Aaron’s son Eleazar to take the pans that had incense in them away from the fire and to scatter the burning coals. The pans that those men [were carrying] are (holy/dedicated to me) [because they burned incense to me in them].
38 Ilia da Hina Gode Ea oloda amoga i dagoiba: le, hadigi hamoi dagoi. Amaiba: le, amo dunu (ilia da wadela: le hamoiba: le medole legei dagoi ba: i) amo ilia laluoso gasa: le legesu lale, dadabili, abenale da: fe hamone, amoga oloda dedebosu hamoma. Amo da Isala: ili dunuma sisasu dawa: loma: ne agoane ba: mu.”
Those men have now died because of their sin; so [Eleazar must] take their pans and hammer the metal to make it become very thin. He must make a covering for the altar with that metal. Those pans were used to offer incense to me, so they are (holy/dedicated to me). [What happened to] those pans will now warn the Israeli people.”
39 Amaiba: le, gobele salasu dunu Elia: isa da laluoso gasa: le legesu lale, da: fe abenai hamoma: ne sia: i. Amalalu, ilia da amoga oloda dedeboi dagoi.
So Eleazar the priest collected the 250 pans for burning incense that had been used by the men who died in the fire. He hammered the pans very thin to make a covering for the altar, as Yahweh told Moses/me should be done.
40 Amo da Isala: ili dunu ilima sisasu agoane ba: i. Sisasu da Elane egaga fi, ilia fawane da Hina Godema gabusiga: manoma ulagima: ne, oloda amoga doaga: mu da defea. Be eno dunu da amai hamonanu, e da Goula amola ea fa: no bobogesu dunu amo wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Amo hou, Hina Gode da Mousesema, e da Elia: isama alofele sia: ma: ne sia: i.
That warned the Israeli people that only those who were descendants of Aaron were permitted to burn incense for an offering to Yahweh. If anyone else did that, the same thing that happened to Korah and those who were with him would happen to them.
41 Eso eno aya amoga, Isala: ili fi dunu huluane da Mousese amola Elane elama egane sia: i, “Alia da Hina Gode Ea fi dunu mogili medole legei.”
But the following morning, all the Israeli people started to complain against Aaron and Moses/me, saying “You have killed many people who belonged to Yahweh!”
42 Ilia da Mousese amola Elane elama egane sia: musa: gilisi dagoloba, ilia da Abula Diasu ba: musa: sinidigisia, Mu Mobi Ganumu da Abula Diasu dedeboi amola Hina Gode Esalebe dawa: digima: ne sinenemegi hadigi misi dialebe ba: i.
When all the people gathered together to protest about what Aaron and Moses/I had done, they looked at the Sacred Tent and saw that the sacred cloud had covered it, and the glory of Yahweh had appeared.
43 Mousese amola Elane da asili, Abula Diasu ea midadi lelu.
Aaron and Moses/I went and stood in front of the Sacred Tent.
44 Amola Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
45 “Masa! Amo dunu yolesima! Na da amogawi wahadafa ili wadela: lesimu!” Mousese amola Elane ela da odagi osoboa beguduli,
“Get away from these people, in order that I can get rid of them immediately [without injuring you two]!” But Aaron and Moses/I prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground [and prayed].
46 Mousese da Elanema amane sia: i, “Dia laluoso gasa: le legesu lale, oloda amoga laluoso lale, laluoso gasa: le legesu ganodini ligisili, gabusiga: manoma amo laluoso da: iya salima. Amasea hedolowane Isala: ili dunuma gaguli asili, dodofesu hou ilima hamomu. Hedolo! Hina Gode Ea ougi da heda: le, asi dagoi. Olo bagade da dunu fi ganodini mui dagoi.”
Moses/I said to Aaron, “Quickly take another pan and put in it some burning/hot coals from the altar. Put incense in the pan, and carry it out among the people to atone for the sins of the people. Yahweh is very angry with them, and [I know that] a (severe plague/bad sickness) has already started among them.”
47 Elane da Mousese ea sia: nababeba: le, ea laluoso gasa: le legesu lale, Isala: ili dunu gilisisu dogoa amo gusu hehenaiya heda: i. E da olo bagade da mui dagoi ba: beba: le, gabusiga: manoma amo laluoso ligisili, dodofesu hou dunu ili dodofema: ne hamoi dagoi.
So Aaron did what Moses/I told him. He took the burning incense out among the people. The plague had already started to strike the people, but Aaron continued to burn the incense so that God would forgive them for the sins they had committed.
48 Amo hou da olo bagade madelai amo ea logo hedofai. Amalu, Elane da esala dunu la: idi amola bogoi dunu la: idi amoga dogoa lelebe ba: i.
He stood between the people who had already died and those who were still alive, and then the plague stopped.
49 Dunu da olo bagadeba: le bogogia: i ilia idi da 14,700. Eno da Goula ea lelesuba: le bogoi ili da gilisili hame idi.
But 14,700 people had already died from that plague/sickness, in addition to the people who died with Korah.
50 Olo bagade da hedofai dagoi ba: loba, Elane da Mousese Abula Diasu logo holeiga esaloba amogai buhagi.
Then after the plague had ended, Aaron and Moses/I returned to the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
