Idisu 17
1 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], 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 [God prevails], and take rods from them, one for each fathers’ house, of all their princes according to their fathers’ houses, twelve rods. Write each man’s name on 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.
You shall write Aaron [Light-bringer]’s name on the rod of Levi [United with]; for there shall be one rod for each head of their fathers’ houses.
4 Amo galiamo Na Abula Diasuga gaguli misini, Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili (amoga Na da di gousa: sa) amo midadi ligisima.
You shall lay them up in the Tent of Meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you.
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.”
It shall happen, that the rod of the man whom I shall choose shall bud. I will make the murmurings of the children of Israel [God prevails], which they murmur against you, cease from me.”
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.
Moses [Drawn out] spoke to the children of Israel [God prevails]; and all their princes gave him rods, for each prince one, according to their fathers’ houses, even twelve rods. Aaron [Light-bringer]’s rod was among their rods.
7 Amalalu, Mousese da galiamo huluane Abula Diasu amo Hina Gode Ea Sema Gousa: su Gagili midadi amoga ligisi.
Moses [Drawn out] laid up the rods before Adonai in the Tent 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.
On the next day, Moses [Drawn out] went into the Tent of the Testimony; and behold, Aaron [Light-bringer]’s rod for the house of Levi [United with] had sprouted, budded, produced blossoms, and bore ripe 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 [Drawn out] brought out all the rods from before Adonai to all the children of Israel [God prevails]. They looked, and each man took his rod.
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.”
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Put back the rod of Aaron [Light-bringer] before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the children of rebellion; that you may make an end of their murmurings against me, that they not die.”
11 Mousese da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi dagoi.
Moses [Drawn out] did so. As Adonai enjoined him, so he did.
12 Isala: ili dunu da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Ninia da gugunufinisi dagoi.
The children of Israel [God prevails] spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying, “Behold, we perish! We are undone! We are all undone!
13 Nowa da Abula Diasu gadenene fawane masea, e da bogomu. Amaiba: le ninia huluane da bogogia: mu agoai galebe.”
Everyone who keeps approaching Adonai’s tabernacle, dies! Will we all perish?”
