Nambar 11

1 Kaminawk mah laisaep thui ih lok to Angraeng mah thaih naah, palungphui hmai baktiah amngaeh; to pongah Angraeng ih hmai mah nihcae salak to kangh moe, kangthla koek ohhaih ahmuen taeng ih thoemto kaminawk to duek o.

And the people is evil, as those sighing habitually in the ears of Jehovah, and Jehovah heareth, and His anger burneth, and the fire of Jehovah burneth among them, and consumeth in the extremity of the camp.

2 To naah kaminawk loe Mosi khaeah hangh o; Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah lawkthuih naah, hmai to duek let.

And the people cry unto Moses, and Moses prayeth unto Jehovah, and the fire is quenched;

3 Angraeng ih hmai mah nihcae salak to kangh pongah, to ahmuen to Taberah, tiah kawk o.

and he calleth the name of that place Taberah, for the fire of Jehovah hath 'burned' among them.

4 Israel kaminawk hoi nawnto kaom prae kalah kaminawk loe, zok amthlam o; Israel kaminawk doeh qah o moe, mi mah maw ka caak o hanah moi na paek tih?

And the rabble who [are] in its midst have lusted greatly, and the sons of Israel also turn back and weep, and say, 'Who doth give us flesh?

5 Izip prae ah atho paek ai ah caak ih tanga moi, paye thaih, yaengkaem thaih, rasawn kathim hoi kanglung rasawn, kalah congca aannawk to ka poek o parai boeh;

We have remembered the fish which we do eat in Egypt for nought, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick;

6 toe vaihi loe ka hing o haih thazok sut boeh; hae ih manna khue ai ah loe, kalah tidoeh hnuk han koi om ai, tiah a thuih o.

and now our soul [is] dry, there is not anything, save the manna, before our eyes.'

7 Manna loe Coriander thingthai mu baktiah oh moe, arong loe bedellium thingthai mu hoiah anghmong.

And the manna is as coriander seed, and its aspect as the aspect of bdolach;

8 Kaminawk loe caeh o moe, Manna akhuih o pacoengah, daengh o moe, long laom pongah takaw baktiah pahaih o; to loe situi hoiah haek ih takaw baktiah khraem.

the people have turned aside and gathered [it], and ground [it] with millstones, or beat [it] in a mortar, and boiled [it] in a pan, and made it cakes, and its taste hath been as the taste of the moisture of oil.

9 Ataihaih ahmuen ah aqum ih dantui krak naah, manna doeh dantui hoi nawnto krak toeng.

And in the descending of the dew on the camp by night, the manna descendeth upon it.

10 To naah kami boih angmacae ih thok taengah, angmacae imthung takoh boih hoi nawnto qahhaih lok to Mosi mah thaih; Angraeng loe palungphui parai pongah, Mosi doeh poek nawm ai.

And Moses heareth the people weeping by its families, each at the opening of his tent, and the anger of Jehovah burneth exceedingly, and in the eyes of Moses [it is] evil.

11 To pongah Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah, Tipongah na tamna raihaih nang paek loe? Tikhoe na hmaa ah mikcuk naakrak ah ka om ai to mah, hae kaminawk boih ih hmuenzit ka nuiah nam tik loe?

And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'Why hast Thou done evil to Thy servant? and why have I not found grace in Thine eyes — to put the burden of all this people upon me?

12 Hae kaminawk loe kai mah zok ah ka pomh ih kaminawk maw, tikhoe nawkta tapenkung mah nawkta to tapom baktih toengah, hae kaminawk hae ka ban ah tapom moe, nihcae ampanawk khaeah paek hanah lok na kam ih, prae thungah caeh haih hanah nang thuih loe?

I — have I conceived all this people? I — have I begotten it, that Thou sayest unto me, Carry it in thy bosom as the nursing father beareth the suckling, unto the ground which Thou hast sworn to its fathers?

13 Hae kaminawk hanah naa ih moi maw ka la pae thai tih? Nihcae mah kai khaeah, Caak han moi na paek ah, tiah ang hnik o.

Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give to us flesh, and we eat.

14 Hae kaminawk hae kaimah bueng ka hoi thai mak ai; hae hmuen loe kai hanah azit hmoek.

I am not able — I alone — to bear all this people, for [it is] too heavy for me;

15 To tiah kai hae nang ohsak moe, na mikhnuk ah koeh koiah ka oh nahaeloe, vaihiah na hum halat ah! Amtanghaih na hnusak hma ah, tiah a naa.

and if thus Thou art doing to me — slay me, I pray Thee; slay, if I have found grace in thine eyes, and let me not look on mine affliction.'

16 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Israel kacoehtanawk qui sarihto hoi zaehoikungnawk, na panoek ih ukkungnawk to nangmah hoi nawnto amkhuenghaih kahni im ah angdoet o thai hanah, kai khaeah angzo haih ah.

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Gather to Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou hast known that they are elders of the people, and its authorities; and thou hast taken them unto the tent of meeting, and they have stationed themselves there with thee,

17 To ah nang hoi lokthuih hanah kang zoh tathuk han; na nuiah kaom pakhra to ka lak moe, nihcae nuiah ka suek han; hae kaminawk hae nangmah bueng na hoi mak ai, kaminawk ih hmuen kazit to nihcae mah na lawn o tih.

and I have come down and spoken with thee there, and have kept back of the Spirit which [is] upon thee, and have put on them, and they have borne with thee some of the burden of the people, and thou dost not bear [it] thyself alone.

18 Kaminawk khaeah hae tiah thui paeh; khawnbang hanah ciimcai oh, moi to na caa o tih; nangcae mah, Mi mah maw caak han moi na paek tih? Izip prae ah loe khosak kahoih ah ka oh o, tiah na qah o haih lok Angraeng mah thaih boeh pongah, Angraeng mah moi na paek o ueloe, na caa o tih boeh.

'And unto the people thou dost say, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow, and ye have eaten flesh (for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who doth give us flesh? for we [had] good in Egypt) — and Jehovah hath given to you flesh, and ye have eaten.

19 Nito, ni hnetto, ni pangato, ni hato, ni pumphaeto khue na caa o mak ai;

Ye do not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days; —

20 na hnah thung hoiah moi tacawt moe, na panuet o sut khoek to, khrato thung moi to na caa o poe tih; nangcae salakah kaom Angraeng to khet na patoek o moe, tih pongah maw Izip prae to ka caeh o taak? tiah anih hmaa ah na qah o pongah, khrah to thung moi to na caa o tuek tih, tiah a naa.

unto a month of days, till that it come out from your nostrils, and it hath become to you an abomination; because that ye have loathed Jehovah, who [is] in your midst, and weep before Him, saying, Why is this? — we have come out of Egypt!'

21 Toe Mosi mah loe, Kai hoi nawnto kholong caeh kami sang cumvai tarukto oh o; khrah to thung caak poe han ih moi to kang paek han, tiah na thuih.

And Moses saith, 'Six hundred thousand footmen [are] the people in whose midst I [am]; and Thou, Thou hast said, Flesh I give to them, and they have eaten, a month of days!

22 Nihcae caak kakhawt ah maitaw hoi tuunawk to boh han maw? Tuipui ih tanganawk boih naeh cadoeh, nihcae caak han khawt tih maw? tiah a naa.

Is flock and herd slaughtered for them, that one hath found for them? — are all the fishes of the sea gathered for them — that one hath found for them?'

23 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Angraeng ih ban loe duem tet maw? Ka thuih ih lok baktih toengah nangcae khaeah oh maw, om ai, tito vaihi na hnu tih, tiah a naa.

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Is the hand of Jehovah become short? now thou dost see whether My word meeteth thee or not.'

24 Mosi loe caeh moe, Angraeng mah thuih ih loknawk to kaminawk khaeah thuih pae; nihcae thung ih kacoehta qui sarihto a kawk moe, kahni im taengah ohsak.

And Moses goeth out, and speaketh unto the people the words of Jehovah, and gathereth seventy men of the elders of the people, and causeth them to stand round about the tent,

25 To naah Angraeng loe tamai hoiah anghum tathuk moe, anih khaeah lokthuih; anih nui ah kaom Pakhra to a lak moe, kacoehta qui sarihto nuiah a suek; nihcae nuiah Pakhra oh naah, nihcae loe boeng ai ah lok taphong o.

and Jehovah cometh down in the cloud, and speaketh unto him, and keepeth back of the Spirit which [is] on him, and putteth on the seventy men of the elders; and it cometh to pass at the resting of the Spirit on them, that they prophesy, and do not cease.

26 Toe kami hnetto, Eldad hoi Medad loe ataihaih ahmuen ah oh hoi poe; nihnik doeh kacoehta thungah athum hoi toeng, toe kahni im taengah caeh hoi ai; nihnik nuiah doeh Pakhra to oh pongah, atai hoi haih ahmuen ah lok taphong hoi toeng.

And two of the men are left in the camp, the name of the one [is] Eldad, and the name of the second Medad, and the spirit resteth upon them, (and they are among those written, and have not gone out to the tent), and they prophesy in the camp;

27 Thendoeng maeto loe cawnh moe, Mosi khaeah, Eldad hoi Medad hnik doeh ataihaih im ah lok taphong hoi toeng, tiah a naa.

and the young man runneth, and declareth to Moses, and saith, 'Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.'

28 Mosi ih tamna, thendoeng, Nun capa Joshua mah, Ka angraeng Mosi, nihnik to lokthuih anghaksak ah, tiah a naa.

And Joshua son of Nun, minister of Moses, [one] of his young men, answereth and saith, 'My lord Moses, restrain them.'

29 Toe Mosi mah anih khaeah, Ka nuiah uthaih palungthin na tawnh maw? Angraeng ih kaminawk loe tahmaa ah ni oh o boih, Angraeng mah nihcae nuiah angmah ih Muithla to suem tih, tiah a naa.

And Moses saith to him, 'Art thou zealous for me? O that all Jehovah's people were prophets! that Jehovah would put His Spirit upon them!'

30 To pacoengah Mosi hoi Israel kacoehtanawk loe a oh o haih im ah amlaem o let.

And Moses is gathered unto the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

31 To naah Angraeng khae hoiah takhi to songh moe, nihcae ataihaih im hae bang hoi ni to caehhaih loklam, ho bang hoiah doeh ni to caehhaih loklam karoek to, tuipui hoiah kuikoem to a sin pae; long hoi dong hnetto kathah ah angpopsak.

And a spirit hath journeyed from Jehovah, and cutteth off quails from the sea, and leaveth by the camp, as a day's journey here, and as a day's journey there, round about the camp, and about two cubits, on the face of the land.

32 To naah kaminawk mah athun qui, aqum puek, kuikoem to akhuih o, khawnbang khoek to a lak o; tamsi koek akhui kami mah homer hato akhuih o; kuikoem to atai o haih im taeng boih ah tapop o.

And the people rise all that day, and all the night, and all the day after, and gather the quails — he who hath least hath gathered ten homers — and they spread them out for themselves round about the camp.

33 Toe kuikoem moi to caa o ai naah, Angraeng palungphuihaih kaminawk nuiah phak; to pongah nihcae khaeah kanung parai nathaih kasae to phaksak.

The flesh is yet between their teeth — it is not yet cut off — and the anger of Jehovah hath burned among the people, and Jehovah smiteth among the people — a very great smiting;

34 Caak amoeh hmoek kaminawk to aphum o pongah, to ahmuen to Kibroth-Hattaavah, tiah kawk o.

and [one] calleth the name of that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, for there they have buried the people who lust.

35 Kaminawk loe Kibroth-Hattavah ahmuen hoiah Hazeroth ahmuen ah caeh o moe, to ah atai o.

From Kibroth-Hattaavah have the people journeyed to Hazeroth, and they are in Hazeroth.
