Numerus 11

1 Karon nagbagulbol ang mga tawo mahitungod sa ilang mga kalisdanan samtang naminaw si Yahweh. Nadungog ni Yahweh ang mga tawo ug nasuko. Ang kalayo nga gikan kang Yahweh misunog kanila ug milamoy sa pipila ka mga kampo nga anaa sa tumoy.

One day the people complained to Yahweh about their troubles. When Yahweh heard what they were saying, he became angry. So he sent a fire which burned among the people at the edge of their camp.

2 Unya mitawag ang mga tawo kang Moises, busa nag-ampo si Moises kang Yahweh, ug ang kalayo napalong.

Then the people cried out to Moses/me, and he/I prayed to Yahweh. Then the fire stopped burning.

3 Kadto nga dapit ginganlan ug Tabera, tungod kay ang kalayo ni Yahweh misilaob man sa ilang taliwala.

So they called that place Taberah, [which means ‘burning’], because the fire from Yahweh had burned among them.

4 Pipila ka mga langyaw ang nagsugod sa pagkampo uban sa kaliwatan sa Israel. Nagtinguha sila ug maayong kalan-on aron kaonon. Unya ang katawhan sa Israel nanagpanghilak ug miingon, “Kinsay makahatag kanamo ug karne aron kaonon?

Then some troublemakers from other people-groups [who were traveling] with the Israelis began to want better food. And [when they started complaining] the Israeli people also started to complain.

5 Nahinumdoman namo ang isda nga gawasnon namong ginakaon didto sa Ehipto, ang mga pipino, mga melon, mga sibuyas, ang mga bombay, ug ang mga ahos.

They said, “We wish we had some meat!

6 Karon nawala na ang among gana sa pagkaon, tungod kay kining mana na lamang ang kanunay namong makita.”

We remember the fish that we ate while we were in Egypt, fish that was given to us without (cost/asking us to pay for it). And we had all the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic [that we wanted]. But now we do not have any desire to eat, because all we have to eat is this manna!”

7 Ang mana sama sa koriander nga liso. Sama kini sa bdelio.

The manna resembled small white seeds.

8 Manglakaw ang mga tawo ug mangtigom niini. Galingon nila kini, lubokon sa lusong, lutoon kini sa mga kolon ug himoon kining tinapay. Ang lasa niini sama sa preskong lana sa olibo.

[Each morning] the people would go out and gather some [from the surface of the ground]. Then they made flour by grinding it or pounding it with stones. Then they [added water and] boiled it in a pot, or they made flat cakes with it [and baked them]. The cakes tasted like bread that was baked with [olive] oil.

9 Sa dihang ang yamog mangatagak sa kampo sa kagabhion, mangahulog usab ang mana.

Each night the manna came down on their ground where their tents were, like dew [from the sky].

10 Nadungog ni Moises ang pagdangoyngoy sa mga tawo diha sa ilang mga pamilya, ug ang mga kalalakin-an anaa sa ganghaan sa iyang tolda. Nasuko pag-ayo si Yahweh, ug sa panan-aw ni Moises sayop ang ilang pagbagulbol.

Moses/I heard all the Israeli people complaining as they were standing in the entrances of their tents. Yahweh became very angry, and Moses/I was also very perturbed.

11 Miingon si Moises kang Yahweh, “Nganong dili man maayo ang imong pagtagad sa imong sulugoon? Nganong wala ka mahimuot kanako? Gipapas-an mo kanako ang mga kabug-aton niining tanang katawhan?

He/I [went into the Sacred Tent and] asked Yahweh, “Why have you caused me, your servant, to experience this trouble [RHQ]? Act mercifully to me! What wrong have I done, with the result that you have appointed me to take care of all of these people [RHQ]?

12 Ako ba diay ang nanamkon niining tanang katawhan? Gianak ko ba sila nga kinahanglan kang moingon kanako, 'Dad-a sila duol sa imong dughan sama sa amahan nga nagkugos sa iyang gamay nga bata?' Kinahanglan ko ba silang dad-on paingon sa yuta nga imong gipanumpa sa ilang mga katigulangan nga ihatag kanila?

(I am not their father./Am I their father?) [RHQ] Why have you told me to take care of them like a woman carries around her baby and (nurses it/gives it her milk) [MET, RHQ]? How can I take them to the land that you promised to give to our ancestors [RHQ]?

13 Diin man ako makakita ug karne aron ihatag niining tanang katawhan? Nanagpanghilak sila sa akong atubangan ug miingon, 'Hatagi kami ug karne aron among kan-on.'

Where can I get meat to feed all these people? They keep complaining to me, saying, ‘Give us some meat to eat!’

14 Dili nako kaya nga pas-anon kining tanang katawhan nga mag-inusara. Sobra ra sila alang kanako.

I cannot carry all these people’s burdens by myself! [They are like a heavy load [MET], and] I cannot carry this very heavy load any more.

15 Sanglit gitagad mo ako sa ingon niining paagiha, patya na lamang ako karon, kung maluoy ka kanako, ug kuhaa ang akong mga kalisdanan.”

If you intend to act like this toward me, kill me now. If you are really concerned about me, be kind to me and [kill me to] end my misery [of trying to take care of them]!”

16 Miingon si Yahweh kang Moises, “Dad-a nganhi kanako ang 70 ka mga kadagkoan sa Israel. Siguroha nga sila mga kadagkoan ug mga pangulo sa katawhan. Dad-a sila ngadto sa tolda nga tagboanan aron motindog didto uban kanimo.

Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Summon 70 men whom you know are leaders among the Israeli people. Tell them to stand with you in front of the Sacred Tent.

17 Mokanaog ako ug magkigsulti ako kanimo didto. Kuhaon ko ang pipila ka mga Espiritu nga anaa kanimo ug ibutang kini ngadto kanila. Pagapas-anon nila ang kabug-aton sa mga tawo uban kanimo. Dili mo na kini pas-anon nga mag-inusara.

I will come down and talk with you there. Then I will take some of [the power of] my Spirit that you have, and I will put [that power] on them also. They will help you to take care of some of the things that the people are concerned about, in order that you will not need to do it alone.

18 Ingna ang katawhan, 'Andama ang inyong mga kaugalingon alang ugma ug makakaon gayod kamo ug karne, tungod kay mihilak kamo ug nadungog kamo ni Yahweh. Miingon kamo, “Kinsa ang makahatag kanamo ug karne aron among kan-on? Maayo pa alang kanamo nga didto kami sa Ehipto.” Busa hatagan kamo ni Yahweh ug karne ug kaonon ninyo kini.

“Furthermore, say to the people, ‘Make yourselves acceptable to me, and tomorrow you will have meat to eat. You were complaining, and Yahweh heard you when you were saying, “We want some meat to eat. We had better food in Egypt!” Now Yahweh will give you some meat, and you will eat it.

19 Dili lamang kamo mokaon ug karne sulod sa usa ka adlaw, sa duha ka adlaw, sa lima ka adlaw, sa napulo ka adlaw o sa 20 ka adlaw,

You will eat meat not only for one or two days, nor only for five or ten or 20 days.

20 apan mokaon kamo ug karne sulod sa tibuok bulan hangtod nga manggawas na kini sa inyong mga ilong. Lud-on kamo niini tungod kay gisalikway man ninyo si Yahweh, nga anaa kaninyo. Nanaghilak kamo sa iyang atubangan. Miingon kamo, “Nganong mibiya kita sa Ehipto?”'”

[You will eat meat every day] for one month, and then you will loathe/despise it, and it will cause you to want to vomit. [This will happen] because you have rejected Yahweh who is here among you, and you have wailed in his presence, saying [“We would have had better food to eat] if we had not left Egypt [RHQ].”’”

21 Unya miingon si Moises, “Uban kanako ang 600, 000 ka mga tawo, ug miingon ka, 'Hatagan ko sila ug karne aron ilang kaonon sulod sa tibuok bulan.'

But Moses/I replied to Yahweh, “There are 600,000 men [plus women and children] here with me, so ([why] do you say ‘I will give them plenty of meat every day for a month!’?/it does not seem right for you to say ‘I will give them plenty of meat every day for a month!’) [RHQ]

22 Mangayam ba kami ug panon sa kahayopan aron matagbaw sila? Pamukoton ba namo ang tanang isda sa dagat aron matagbaw sila?”

Even if we killed all the sheep and cattle, that would not [RHQ] be enough [to provide meat for all of them] Even if we caught all the fish in the sea [and gave it to them], that would not be enough [RHQ]!”

23 Miingon si Yahweh kang Moises, “Mubo ba ang akong kamot? Karon makita mo kung tinuod ba o dili ang akong pulong.”

But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Do you think that I [SYN] have no power? You will now see if I can do what I say I will do.”

24 Migawas si Moises ug giingnan ang mga tawo sa mga pulong ni Yahweh. Gitigom niya ang 70 ka mga kadagkoan ug gipahimutang sila palibot sa tolda.

So Moses/I went out [from the Sacred Tent] and told the people what Yahweh had said. Then he/I gathered together the 70 leaders and told them to stand around the Sacred Tent.

25 Mikanaog si Yahweh sa panganod ug misulti kang Moises. Gikuha ni Yahweh ang pipila ka mga Espiritu nga anaa kang Moises ug gibutang kini sa 70 ka mga kadagkoan. Sa dihang ang Espiritu napahiluna kanila, nanagna sila, apan niadto lamang nga higayon ug wala na mausab.

Then Yahweh came down in the cloud [that was above the tent] and spoke to Moses/me. He took some of [the power of] the Spirit that he had given to Moses/me and gave it to the 70 leaders. By means of the power of the Spirit within them, they (prophesied/spoke messages that Yahweh gave them), but they did that only once.

26 Duha ka tawo ang nagpabilin sa kampo, nga ginganlan ug Eldad ug Medad. Ang Espiritu anaa usab kanila. Ang ilang mga ngalan nahisulat sa listahan, apan wala sila migawas sa tolda. Hinuon, nanagna sila sa kampo.

Two of the leaders whom Moses/I appointed, Eldad and Medad, were not there when the rest of them gathered together. They had not left [their tents] to go and stand around the Sacred Tent. But Yahweh’s Spirit came on them also, and they started to (prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh).

27 Usa ka batan-ong lalaki ang midagan paingon kang Moises ug miingon, “Si Eldab ug Medad nanagna didto sa kampo.”

So a young man ran and told Moses/me, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in all their tents!”

28 Si Josue ang anak nga lalaki ni Nun, ang alalay ni Moises, usa sa iyang pinili nga tawo, miingon kang Moises, “Akong agalong Moises, pahunonga sila.”

Joshua, who had helped Moses/me since he was a young man, said, “Sir, tell them to stop doing that!”

29 Miingon si Moises kaniya, “Nangabugho ka ba alang kanako? Gitinguha ko nga ang tanang katawhan ni Yahweh mga propeta ug aron ibutang niya ang iyang Espiritu sa ilang tanan!”

But Moses/I replied, “(Are you worried that they might injure my reputation/Do you think that I want to be the only one who prophesies) [RHQ]? I wish that all Yahweh’s people could (prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh). I wish that Yahweh would give the power of his Spirit to all of them!”

30 Unya si Moises ug ang mga kadagkoan sa Israel mibalik sa kampo.

Then Moses/I and all the leaders went back to their/our tents.

31 Unya miabot ang hangin nga gikan kang Yahweh ug nagdala ug buntog gikan sa dagat. Nangahulog kini duol sa kampo, mga usa ka adlaw nga pagpanaw sa usa ka bahin ug usa ka adlaw nga pagpanaw sa laing bahin. Ang buntog nakapalibot sa kampo nga mga duha ka kyubits ang kahabogon gikan sa yuta.

Then Yahweh sent a strong wind from the sea. It blew quail into the area all around the camp for miles in every direction, [and caused the quail to fall onto the ground]. They were piled up on the ground about (3 feet/1 meter) high!

32 Nagkapuliki ang mga tawo sa pagpanguha sa buntog tibuok adlaw, tibuok gabii, ug pagkasunod adlaw. Walay nagkuha ug minus napulo ka homers sa buntog. Gipangbahinbahin nila ang buntog sa tibuok kampo.

So the people went out and gathered up the quail all that day, and all that night, and all of the following day. [It seemed as though] everyone gathered at least 50 bushels! They spread the quail out on the ground all around the camp, [so that the quail would dry out].

33 Samtang ang karne anaa pa sa ilang baba, samtang giusap pa nila kini, nasuko si Yahweh kanila. Giatake niya ang katawhan sa hilabihan ka dakong balatian.

[Then they cooked them and started to eat them]. But while they were still eating the meat [MTY], Yahweh [showed that he] was very angry with them. He struck them with a severe plague/sickness, [and many people died].

34 Kadto nga dapit ginganlan ug Kibrot Hataava, tungod kay didto nila gilubong ang mga tawo nga nagtinguha ug karne.

The people who died and were buried were the ones who had said they wanted to eat meat [like they had formerly eaten in Egypt]. So they called that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, [which means ‘graves of those who craved’].

35 Gikan sa Kibrot Hataava ang katawhan nanglakaw padulong sa Hazerot, diin didto sila nagpabilin.

From there, the Israelis continued walking [east] until they arrived at Hazeroth [town], where they stopped and stayed [for a long time].
