Idisu 17
1 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Isala: ili dunuma ilia da dima galiamo fagoyale gala ima: ne sia: ma. Amo galiamo da afae afae Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu fagoyale gala ilia galiamo agoane. Amo dunu ilia dio afae afae amo galiamo damana dedema.
Speak to the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod by their kindreds, of all the princes of the tribes, twelve rods, and write the name of every man upon his rod.
3 Amola galiamo amo da Lifai fi ilia galiamo amoga Elane ea dio dedema. Fi ouligisu dunu afae afae da galiamo afae dialebe ba: mu.
And the name of Aaron shall be for the tribe of Levi, and one rod shall contain all their families:
4 Amo galiamo Na Abula Diasuga gaguli misini, Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili (amoga Na da di gousa: sa) amo midadi ligisima.
And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the covenant before the testimony, where I will speak to thee.
5 Amasea Na ilegei dunu ea galiamo da fadagala: mu. Amo hamobeba: le, Na da Isala: ili dunu ilia mae fisili dima egane sia: su amo hedofamu.”
Whomsoever of these I shall choose, his rod shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, wherewith they murmur against you.
6 Amaiba: le, Mousese da Isala: ili dunuma sia: beba: le, ilia ouligisu dunu afae afae da ema galiamo i. Amo galiamo da fi fagoyale afae afae gala, ilia: Amola ilia da Elane ea galiamo amo galiamo enoma gilisi.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and all the princes gave him rods one for every tribe: and there were twelve rods besides the rod of Aaron.
7 Amalalu, Mousese da galiamo huluane Abula Diasu amo Hina Gode Ea Sema Gousa: su Gagili midadi amoga ligisi.
And when Moses had laid them up before the Lord in the tabernacle of the testimony:
8 Aya eso amoga, Mousese da Abula Diasu ganodini golili sa: ili, Elane ea galiamo (amo da Lifai fi ilia galiamo) amo da fadagala: i dagoi ba: i. Amo da yebese hamone, sogea hamone, ‘alamode’ fage legei dagoi ba: i.
He returned on the following day, and found that the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi, was budded: and that the buds swelling it had bloomed blossoms, which spreading the leaves, were formed into almonds.
9 Mousese da galiamo huluane gaguli asili, Isala: ili dunuma olei. Ilia da hou doaga: i amo ba: lalu, ilia ouligisu dunu afae afae da ilia galiamo bu ili ladi.
Moses therefore brought out all the rods from before the Lord to all the children of Israel: and they saw, and every one received their rods.
10 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Elane ea galiamo amo Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili ganodini bu salima. Amo da Isala: ili odoga: su dunuma sisasu agoane dialoma: mu. Sisasu da ilia da egasu sia: hame hedofasea, bogomu.”
And the Lord said to Moses: Carry back the rod of Aaron into the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be kept there for a token of the rebellious children of Israel, and that their complaints may cease from me lest they die.
11 Mousese da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi dagoi.
And Moses did as the Lord had commanded.
12 Isala: ili dunu da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Ninia da gugunufinisi dagoi.
And the children of Israel said to Moses: Behold we are consumed, we all perish.
13 Nowa da Abula Diasu gadenene fawane masea, e da bogomu. Amaiba: le ninia huluane da bogogia: mu agoai galebe.”
Whosoever approacheth to the tabernacle of the Lord, he dieth. Are we all to a man to be utterly destroyed?
