1 Pilnam te BOEIPA hna ah a thae la kohuet uh tih BOEIPA loh a yaak vaengah a thintoek te sai. Te dongah BOEIPA hmai loh amih taengah a dom tih rhaehhmuen a bawtnah te a hlawp.
And the people were as murmurers, speaking evil in the ears of the LORD; and when the LORD heard it, His anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and devoured in the uttermost part of the camp.
2 Te vaengah pilnam te Moses taengah pang tih Moses te BOEIPA taengah a thangthui daengah hmai khaw duek.
And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto the LORD, and the fire abated.
3 BOEIPA kah hmai loh amih te a dom dongah te kah hmuen ming te Taberah la a khue.
And the name of that place was called Taberah, because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
4 Amih khui ah aka boihlum kah hoehhamnah te a ngaidam uh. Te vaengah Israel ca rhoek khaw mael uh tih a rhah neh, “U long nim mamih maeh n'cah ve?
And the mixed multitude that was among them fell a lusting; and the children of Israel also wept on their part, and said: 'Would that we were given flesh to eat!
5 Egypt ah nga n'caak te n'ngai uh coeng. Yilpuet yiltang neh anthing khaw, rhasawn ling neh rhasawn bok tah a hoeihae mai la.
We remember the fish, which we were wont to eat in Egypt for nought; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
6 Tedae mamih kah hinglu tah rhae coeng tih mamih mikhmuh kah manna pawt atah a cungkuem he om voel pawh.
but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all; we have nought save this manna to look to.' —
7 Manna khaw mah sungsin muu bangla, a mik khaw thingpi mik bangla om.
Now the manna was like coriander seed, and the appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium.
8 Pilnam loh van tih a yoep uh. Kuelhsum dongah a kuelh uh, sumngol dongah a daeng uh, am dongah a thong uh. Te te buh la a khueh uh tih a tuihlim khaw, situi hlantui kah a tuihlim bangla om.
The people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and seethed it in pots, and made cakes of it; and the taste of it was as the taste of a cake baked with oil.
9 Rhaehhmuen ah buemtui a bo hatah khoyin ah te nen te manna tla,” a ti uh.
And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it. —
10 Pilnam loh a cako neh, a dap thohka ah hlang a rhah te Moses loh a yaak. Te dongah BOEIPA kah thintoek te sai khungdaeng tih Moses mikhmuh ah thae.
And Moses heard the people weeping, family by family, every man at the door of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased.
11 Te vaengah Moses loh BOEIPA te, “Balae tih na sal soah thae na huet? Balae tih na mik dongah mikdaithen khaw ka hmuh pawh? He pilnam pum kah hnorhih he kamah soah tloeng ham mai he.
And Moses said unto the LORD: 'Wherefore hast Thou dealt ill with Thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in Thy sight, that Thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
12 Kai loh pilnam pum he ka yom tih kai loh ka sak nim? Kai taengah tah, 'Cahni aka poeh loh a napa ham na toemngam pah khohmuen la a khuen bangla pilnam he na rhang dongah poem,’ na ti.
Have I conceived all this people? have I brought them forth, that Thou shouldest say unto me: Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing-father carrieth the sucking child, unto the land which Thou didst swear unto their fathers?
13 He pilnam pum taengah paek ham maeh te kai taengah me lamkah nim a om eh? Kai taengah rhap uh tih, 'Kaimih he maeh m'pae lamtah ka ca uh eh,’ a ti uh.
Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they trouble me with their weeping, saying: Give us flesh, that we may eat.
14 He pilnam pum phueih ham tah kai bueng neh ka coeng moenih, kai ham khaw rhih aih.
I am not able to bear all this people myself alone, because it is too heavy for me.
15 Kai he he tla nan saii oeh atah kamah he nan ngawn khaw nan ngawn laeh mako. Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka dang atah ka yoethae he ka hmu boel eh?,” a ti nah.
And if Thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray Thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in Thy sight; and let me not look upon my wretchedness.'
16 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Israel kah a hamca lamloh pilnam kah a hamca neh rhoiboei la na ming te hlang sawmrhih ah kai taengla han coi. Amih te tingtunnah dap la khuen lamtah namah taengah pahoi pai uh saeh.
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather unto Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with thee.
17 Ka suntla vetih nang te pahoi kam voek bitni. Te vaengah nang dongkah Mueihla te ka pet vetih amih soah ka khueh ni. Pilnam kah hnorhih te nang n'yingyawn puei daengah ni nang namah bueng ham na phueih pawt eh.
And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.
18 Pilnam te, “Thangvuen kah ham ciim uh laeh. Maeh caak ham mai te BOEIPA hna ah na rhap uh tih, “U long nim mamih he maeh n'cah ve, Egypt ah ni mamih ham a hoeikhang palueng,” na ti dongah BOEIPA loh nangmih te maeh m'paek vetih na caak uh bitni.
And say thou unto the people: Sanctify yourselves against to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying: Would that we were given flesh to eat! for it was well with us in Egypt; therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
19 Hnin at bueng na ca mahpawh, hnin nit mai pawt tih hnin nga mai moenih. Hnin rha bal mai pawt tih khohnin kul bueng moenih.
Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
20 Hla bal hnin bal na hnarhong lamloh a coe vaengah nangmih ham kona-awk la om bitni. Na khui ah BOEIPA na hnawt uh tih na rhap uh. A mikhmuh ah, “Balae tih Egypt lamloh n'caeh uh he,” na ti uh,”ti nah,” a ti.
but a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you; because that ye have rejected the LORD who is among you, and have troubled Him with weeping, saying: Why, now, came we forth out of Egypt?'
21 Tedae Moses loh, “Pilnam kah rhalkap he thawng ya rhuk lo tih a khui ah kai ka om ngawn. Namah long tah, “Amih te maeh ka paek vetih khohnin bal hla bal a cak uh bitni,” na ti.
And Moses said: 'The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand men on foot; and yet Thou hast said: I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month!
22 Amih ham boiva neh saelhung ngawn cakhaw amih te cung venim? Tuitunli kah nga boeih te amih ham kol pah cakhaw amih te cung venim?” a ti nah.
If flocks and herds be slain for them, will they suffice them? or if all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, will they suffice them?'
23 Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “BOEIPA he a kut ngun a? Kai ol he nang taengah a thoeng khaw, a thoeng pawt khaw na hmuh pawn ni,” a ti nah.
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Is the LORD'S hand waxed short? now shalt thou see whether My word shall come to pass unto thee or not.'
24 Te phoeiah Moses te cet tih pilnam taengah BOEIPA ol a thui. Te phoeiah pilnam kah a hamca khui lamloh hlang sawmrhih te a coi tih amih te dap kaepvai ah a pai sak.
And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the Tent.
25 Te vaengah BOEIPA te cingmai khuiah ha suntla tih anih te a voek. Te phoeiah anih dongkah Mueihla te a pet tih a ham rhoek hlang sawmrhih soah a paek. Amih soah Mueihla a om van neh tonghma uh dae khoep uh hae pawh.
And the LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy elders; and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
26 Te vaengah hlang panit tah rhaehhmuen ah uelh rhoi. Pakhat ming tah Eldad tih pabae te a ming Medad ni. Amih rhoi soah mueihla om tih amih rhoi khaw thum rhoi. Tedae dap la mop rhoi pawt tih rhaehhmuen ah tonghma rhoi.
But there remained two men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of them that were recorded, but had not gone out unto the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Te dongah camoe pakhat te yong tih Moses taengah a puen pah. Te vaengah, “Eldad neh Medad tah rhaehhmuen ah tonghma rhoi,” a ti nah.
And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said: 'Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.'
28 Te dongah Moses loh a cacawn lamkah a tueihyoeih Nun capa Joshua loh a doo tih, “Ka boeipa Moses aw amih te paa sak,” a ti nah.
And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses from his youth up, answered and said: 'My lord Moses, shut them in.'
29 Tedae Moses loh anih te, “Kai ham na thatlai a? BOEIPA kah pilnam pum he tonghma la a khueh mai khaming. Amih rhoi soah BOEIPA a mueihla a paek maco,” a ti.
And Moses said unto him: 'Art thou jealous for my sake? would that all the LORD'S people were prophets, that the LORD would put His spirit upon them!'
30 Te phoeiah Moses te Israel a ham rhoek neh a rhaehhmuen la khoem uh.
And Moses withdrew into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31 Te phoeiah BOEIPA taeng lamloh khohli a tueih tih tuipuei lamkah tanghuem a khuen pah. Te vaengah rhaehhmuen la hnin at longcaeh, hnin at longcaeh hil a khueh pah. Rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah khaw diklai hman ah dong nit hil ngang.
And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought across quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day's journey on this side, and a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and about two cubits above the face of the earth.
32 Pilnam te thoo tih khothaih puet, khoyin puet, a vuen hnin at puet tanghuem te a kol uh. Homer parha a baeko hil khaw a kol uh tih rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah a yaal la a yaal uh.
And the people rose up all that day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails; he that gathered least gathered ten heaps; and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
33 Maeh te a no laklo ah a ai hlan vaengah BOEIPA kah thintoek te pilnam taengah sai tih BOEIPA loh pilnam te hmasoe puei neh muep a ngawn.
While the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the anger of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.
34 Te vaengah maeh hue pilnam te pahoi a up uh dongah te hmuen ming khaw Kiborthhattaavah la a khue.
And the name of that place was called Kibroth-hattaavah, because there they buried the people that lusted.
35 Pilnam te Kiborthhattaavah lamloh Hazeroth la puen uh tih Hazeroth ah om uh.
From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed unto Hazeroth; and they abode at Hazeroth.
