< Nambar 16 >
1 Levi acaeng Kohath capa Izhar, Izhar capa Korah loe, Reuben acaeng Paleth capa On, On capa Eliab, Eliab capa hnik Dathan hoi Abiram cae to kawk moe,
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took [men: ]
2 amkhueng kaminawk thungah minawk mah panoek ih kami, ahmin kamthang kami, amkhuenghaih ukkung Israel kami cumvai hnet, qui pangato hoi nawnto Mosi to hmang o;
And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
3 nihcae loe nawnto amkhueng o moe, Mosi hoi Aaron ih lok to aek o, nihnik khaeah, Kamtlai hmoek ah tok na sak hoi; amkhueng kaminawk loe ciimcai o; Angraeng loe, kami boih nuiah oh bae, tiah a naa o.
And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, [Ye take] too much upon you, seeing all the congregation [are] holy, every one of them, and the LORD [is] among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
4 Nihcae ih lok Mosi mah thaih naah a mikhmai long ah akuep;
And when Moses heard [it], he fell upon his face:
5 to pacoengah Mosi mah, Korah hoi a hnukbang kaminawk khaeah, Angraeng ih kami loe mi maw, mi maw ciimcai, angmah khaeah angzohsak han ih kami loe mi maw, tito khawnbang ah amtuengsak tih; a qoih ih kami doeh angmah taengah amtuengsak tih.
And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will shew who [are] his, and [who is] holy; and will cause [him] to come near unto him: even [him] whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.
6 Nang, Korah hoi na hnukbang kaminawk boih hae hae sah oh; sabae to la o ah loe,
This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
7 khawnbang ah Angraeng hmaa ah, sabae thungah hmuihoih hmai thlaekhaih to sah oh; to naah Angraeng mah qoih ih kami loe ciimcai kami ah om tih; nangcae Levi kaminawk loe kamtlai hmoek ah na sak o boeh, tiah a naa.
And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be [that] the man whom the LORD doth choose, he [shall be] holy: [ye take] too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
8 Mosi mah Korah khaeah, Nangcae Levi kaminawk, tahngai oh;
And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:
9 nangcae loe Angraeng ih kahni imthung ah toksak moe, kaminawk hma ah angdoet pacoengah, nihcae ih tok to sak hanah, nangcae to Israel Sithaw mah a taengah kawk boeh, Israel kaminawk thung hoi pahoe ih hmuen loe, nangcae han tetta hmuen ah maw oh?
[Seemeth it but] a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?
10 Nangmah hoi nam nawkamya Levi ih caanawk boih, angmah hoi kanghnai ah suek boeh to mah, nangcae mah qaima ah oh han ih na pakrong o vop maw?
And he hath brought thee near [to him], and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
11 To pongah nangmah hoi na hnukbang kaminawk boih nawnto nam khueng o moe, Angraeng ih lok to na aek o; Aaron loe kawbaktih kami ah maw oh moe, na laisaep o thuih? tiah a naa.
For which cause [both] thou and all thy company [are] gathered together against the LORD: and what [is] Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
12 To pacoengah Mosi mah Eliab capa hnik Dathan hoi Abiram to kawk; toe nihnik mah, Kang zo hoi mak ai,
And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
13 nang mah ni praezaek ah kaicae dueksak hanah, tahnutui hoi khoitui longhaih prae thung hoiah nang tacawt haih, to hmuen loe tetta ah maw oh moe, vaihi kaicae nuiah angraeng ah oh han na koeh vop?
[Is it] a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us?
14 Toe tahnutui hoi khoitui longhaih prae ah kaicae nang caeh haih ai, lawk hoi misur takhanawk doeh qawk ah nang paek ai; hae kaminawk ih mik to na taprok pae han maw? Kaihnik loe nang khaeah kang zo hoi mak ai, tiah a naa hoi.
Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
15 To naah Mosi loe paroeai palungphui moe, Angraeng khaeah, nihnik mah paek ih hmuen to talawk pae hmah; nihnik khae ih laa hrang maeto doeh ka la pae ai, nihcae han nganbawh kana doeh ka paek vai ai, tiah a naa.
And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
16 Mosi mah Korah khaeah, Aaron, nangmah hoi na hnukbang kaminawk boih, khawnbang ah Angraeng hmaa ah angphong oh;
And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
17 kami boih mah hmuihoih thlaekhaih sabae to sin oh, a thungah hmuihoih to suem oh; nangcae boih mah hmuihoih thlaekhaih sabae cumvai hnet, qui pangato Angraeng hmaa ah sin oh; nang hoi Aaron mah doeh hmuihoih sabae to sin hoi toeng ah, tiah a naa.
And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each [of you] his censer.
18 To pongah kami boih mah angmah ih hmuihoih sabae to sin o moe, hmuihoih to hmai hoiah thlaek o pacoengah, Mosi, Aaron hoi nawnto kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im thok taengah angdoet o boih.
And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
19 Korah mah doeh Mosi hoi Aaron ohhaih ahmuen maeto bang ih kaminawk amkhuenghaih thok taengah, angmah hnukbang kaminawk to amkhuengsak toeng; to naah Angraeng lensawkhaih kaminawk boih khaeah amtueng.
And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.
20 Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah,
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
21 Atue setta thungah hae kaminawk hae ka hum boih han boeh pongah, hae kaminawk salak hoiah amhoe hoi ah, tiah a naa.
Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
22 Toe Mosi hoi Aaron loe long ah akuep hoi moe, Aw Sithaw, kaminawk boih ih pakhra ukkung Sithaw, kami maeto zaehaih pongah, acaeng kaminawk boih nuiah palung na phui han maw? tiah a naa hoi.
And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?
23 To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
24 Korah, Dathan hoi Abiram ih kahni im hoi kamhoe ah oh hanah kaminawk to lokthui paeh, tiah a naa.
Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
25 Mosi loe angthawk moe, Israel kami kacoehtanawk hoi nawnto Dathan hoi Abiram khaeah caeh.
And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
26 Kaminawk khaeah, Hae ah kaom kasae kaminawk ih kahni im hoi kamhoe ah om oh; nihcae ih hmuen tita doeh sui o hmah; to tih ai nahaeloe nangcae doeh nihcae zaehaih pongah nam ro o moeng tih, tiah a thuih pae.
And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.
27 Kaminawk loe Korah, Dathan hoi Abiram cae ih kahni imthung hoiah tacawt o boih boeh pongah, Korah, Dathan hoi Abiram loe a zunawk, a capanawk, a caa nawktanawk hoi nawnto angmacae ohhaih im thok taengah angdoet o.
So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
28 To naah Mosi mah, Hae ah kaom hmuennawk loe kaimah koeh ah sak ih na ai ni; Angraeng mah sak han ang patoeh pongah ni ka sak.
And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for [I have] not [done them] of mine own mind.
29 Kaminawk boih mah tong ih duekhaih hoi thuitaekhaih to hae kaminawk mah tong o nahaeloe, Angraeng mah kai hae patoeh ai, tito panoek oh.
If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; [then] the LORD hath not sent me.
30 Toe Angraeng mah hmuen kangtha to sah moe, long to akah rak pacoengah, hae kaminawk hoi nihcae ih ampuinawk to paaeh moe, kahing ah tangqom thungah caeh o nahaeloe, hae kaminawk mah Angraeng to khet patoek o, tito na panoek o tih, tiah a naa. (Sheol )
But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that [appertain] unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. (Sheol )
31 To loknawk a thuih boih pacoengah, Nihcae ohhaih im tlim ih long to akah rak,
And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that [was] under them:
32 long loe pakha aangh moe, to kaminawk hoi nihcae ih imnawk, Korah ih imthung takoh boih, a tawnh ih hmuenmaenawk boih to paaeh.
And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that [appertained] unto Korah, and all [their] goods.
33 To kaminawk, nihcae hoi angkom kaminawk loe, kahing ah long thungah caeh o tathuk; long mah nihcae to pakuep hmoek; to tiah nihcae loe acaeng kaminawk thung hoiah anghmat angtaa o. (Sheol )
They, and all that [appertained] to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. (Sheol )
34 Nihcae hanghaih lok to thaih o naah, aicae doeh long mah paaeh toeng tih boeh, tiah a poek o pongah, a taengah kaom Israel kaminawk loe cawnh o boih.
And all Israel that [were] round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up [also].
35 To naah Angraeng khae hoi hmai to angzoh moe, hmuihoih thlaek kami cumvai hnet, qui pangatonawk to hmai mah kangh boih.
And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
36 Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
37 Aaron capa qaima Eleazar khaeah hmai kangqong hmuihoih thlaekhaih sabae to la ah loe, kangqong hmai to ataek ah; to hmuihoihnawk loe kaciim hmuen ah oh.
Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.
38 Angmacae hinghaih paduek hanah zaehaih sah kaminawk ih hmuihoih thlaekhaih sabae hoiah hmaicam to khuk hanah sum kangphaek daek to sah ah; to sabaenawk loe Angraeng khaeah paek ih hmuen ah oh pongah ciim; to hmuen loe Israel kaminawk tanoekhaih ah om tih, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates [for] a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.
39 To pongah qaima Eleazar mah hmuihoih thlaekhaih sabaenawk to lak moe, hmaicam to khuk hanah sum kamling to kangphaek daek ah daengsak.
And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad [plates for] a covering of the altar:
40 Aaron ih caanawk na ai ah, kalah kami mah Angraeng hmaa ah hmuihoih thlaek hanah angzo nahaeloe, Korah hoi anih hnukbang kaminawk baktiah oh han om ai; to sabaenawk loe Israel kaminawk mah panoek poe han ih hmuen ah om tih, tiah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah pae thuih ih lok baktih toengah Eleazar mah sak.
[To be] a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which [is] not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.
41 Khawnbang ah loe amkhueng Israel acaeng kaminawk boih mah, Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah, Nanghnik mah Angraeng ih kaminawk to na hum hoi boih boeh, tiah laisaep o thuih.
But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD.
42 Mosi hoi Aaron ih lok to aek hanah kaminawk nawnto amkhueng o, amkhuenghaih kahni im bangah angqoi o naah, khenah, tamai mah kahni im to khuk khoep moe, Angraeng lensawkhaih to amtueng.
And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
43 To pacoengah Mosi hoi Aaron loe amkhuenghaih kahni im hma bangah caeh hoi.
And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
44 To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
45 akra ai ah hae kaminawk hae ka tamit boih han boeh pongah, hae kaminawk salak hoiah kamhoe ah om ah, tiah a naa. To naah nihnik loe long ah akuep hoi.
Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
46 Mosi mah Aaron khaeah, Hmuihoih thlaekhaih sabae to la ah, hmaicam nui ih hmai to la ah loe, sabae thungah suek pacoengah, kaminawk khaeah karangah caeh ah loe, zae angbawnhaih to sahsak ah; Angraeng khae hoi palungphuihaih phak boeh pongah, nathaih kasae to phak boeh, tiah a naa.
And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.
47 Mosi mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Aaron loe kaminawk salakah cawnh moe, a sak; khenah, to naah kaminawk khaeah nathaih kasae oh amtong boeh; toe Aaron mah hmuihoih to thlaek moe, kaminawk han angbawnhaih to sak pae.
And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
48 Anih loe kahing hoi kadueh salakah angdoet; to naah kasae nathaih to dip.
And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
49 Toe Korah pongah kadueh kaminawk to thui ai, to nathaih kasae pongah kadueh kaminawk loe sangqum boihah sang hatlai pali, qui sarihto oh o.
Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
50 Kasae nathaih dip pacoengah, Aaron loe Mosi khaeah amkhuenghaih kahni im thok taengah amlaem let.
And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
