Idisu 17
1 Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
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 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’s name on Levi’s rod. 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 covenant, 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, 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 spoke to the children of Israel; and all their princes gave him rods, for each prince one, according to their fathers’ houses, a total of twelve rods. Aaron’s rod was amongst their rods.
7 Amalalu, Mousese da galiamo huluane Abula Diasu amo Hina Gode Ea Sema Gousa: su Gagili midadi amoga ligisi.
Moses laid up the rods before the LORD 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 went into the Tent of the Testimony; and behold, Aaron’s rod for the house of Levi 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 brought out all the rods from before the LORD to all the children of Israel. 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.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Put back the rod of Aaron before the covenant, to be kept for a token against the children of rebellion; that you may make an end of their complaining against me, that they not die.”
11 Mousese da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi dagoi.
Moses did so. As the LORD commanded him, so he did.
12 Isala: ili dunu da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Ninia da gugunufinisi dagoi.
The children of Israel spoke to Moses, 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 the LORD’s tabernacle, dies! Will we all perish?”
