Minbu 16
1 Nikhat chun Izhar chapa Korah, Ama chu Levi Phung akon Kohath insungmi ahin, ama chun Reuben phung’a kon mi aki tep khom in, hite ni chu Dathan le Abiram, amani chu Eliab chate ahin, chule Peleth chapa On jaonan,
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Pallu, the son of Reuben, made themselves ready,
2 Israel chilhah jouse phung lamkai jani le somnga jaonan Mose doumah in achon tauve.
And came before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty chiefs of the people, men of good name who had a place in the meeting of the people.
3 Amaho jouse thakhat tah in lungkhat in apang khom un Mosele Aaron heng nga hitin asei tauve. “Nangni hi nachat val lheh lhon tai. Israel mipi hin Pathen akhosah jing un, Pakaiyin keiho jong ei umpi jing nauve, nangnin ipi thahat leh boltheina, keiho sanga lenjo Pathen mite lah a hi neija ki gella na him”, tin asei uve.
They came together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, You take overmuch on yourselves, seeing that all the people are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them; why then have you put yourselves in authority over the people of the Lord?
4 Mose’n Amaho thusei ajah phat chun a kaiku jeng tan ahi.
And Moses, hearing this, went down on his face;
5 Hichun Mose’n Korahte nungjui ho lah achu hitin aseitai, jing teng Pakaiyin eihetsah diu ahi koi hohi ama chate hiham tichu het dohna um ding ahi.
And he said to Korah and his band, In the morning the Lord will make clear who are his, and who is holy, and who may come near him: the man of his selection will be caused to come near him.
6 Vo Korah nangma na hin nanung juiten, jing teng maicham thaomei halna chu na hin kichoi diu ahi ati.
So do this: let Korah and all his band take vessels for burning perfumes;
7 Chu teng Pathen masanga koi chu a thengjo ham ti chu evet diu ahitai. Veuvin Levi chate ho nang ho joh in na bol khel tauve ati.
And put spices on the fire in them before the Lord tomorrow; then the man marked out by the Lord will be holy: you take overmuch on yourselves, you sons of Levi.
8 Chu in Mose’n Korah henga asei in, Levite insung injong ngai un,
And Moses said to Korah, Give ear now, you sons of Levi:
9 Pathen chun Israel mipite lah’a nalhen doh uva, ama jen ding leh a kintheng natoh tong ding’a na ngense uhi, thil neocha a ngaito na hiu ham ati.
Does it seem only a small thing to you that the God of Israel has made you separate from the rest of Israel, letting you come near himself to do the work of the House of the Lord, and to take your place before the people to do what has to be done for them;
10 Korah! Pathen in hi tobang kintheng tongdia na sopite’u Levite toh na ngense jing lai’uva, Themputna jong na holbe uva na ngaichat nahlai di’u ham? ati.
Letting you, and all your brothers the sons of Levi, come near to him? and would you now be priests?
11 Nangho hin na doudal pentah uchu midang ahipon Pathen chu ahi bouve, Aaron chu koi na hisah uva ama chung chang’a nang lungphat mo na vetsah jing uham?
So you and all your band have come together against the Lord; and Aaron, who is he, that you are crying out against him?
12 Hichun Mose’n Dathan chule Abiram ahin Eliab chateni chu ajui din akou tai, Ahinlah amaho ada tauvin, Keiho ka hung doh nom pouve.
Then Moses sent for Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: and they said, We will not come up:
13 Ajeh chun Nangman Egypt gam sung khoiju le bongnoi lonna gam'a patna neihin pui doh uva, tun hikom nelgam a thidoh dinga neikou’u ahi phaset talou ding ham? Nangma in tuchan geija keiho chung a lengpa vaipoh bang nga hi nei poh jing ding’u ham?
Is it not enough that you have taken us from a land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in the waste land, but now you are desiring to make yourself a chief over us?
14 Ipi seibe ding um nalaija ham? Nang man Khoiju leh bongnoi lon na gam natina alah neipui hih laiyun, Keiho chenna ding gam la neipi pouvin, hon lei lhosoh ga konna ding gam lah aum pon, mingol bolla bol jing ding neigot nahlai uham, atiuve.
And more than this, you have not taken us into a land flowing with milk and honey, or given us a heritage of fields and vine-gardens: will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up.
15 Hichun Mose chu a lunghang tan Pathen komma hitin asei tai. Leviten chang minsa maicham ima ahin choi teng, anasan datan, Amaho akon imachacha ka lah aum khapon, Amaho doumah ima cha jong ka bolkhah aum poi, ati.
Then Moses was very angry, and said to the Lord, Give no attention to their offering: not one of their asses have I taken, or done wrong to any of them.
16 Chu in Mose’n Korah komma hitin aseijin Jing nikho teng nangma na hin, na nung jui jouse hilai muna na hung ki khop cheh diu, Pathen masang nga na din diu, Aaron jong hikomma hi hung ding ahi.
And Moses said to Korah, You and all your band are to come before the Lord tomorrow, you and they and Aaron:
17 Nangma nahin na nung jui mi jani-le-somnga ho jouse chun gimnamtui halnam na ding thaomei chu Pakai masang’a ahin kichoi cheh diu, Aaron thempu pa jong ama gimnamtui maicham halna ding ahin kichoiya hung ding ahi, ati.
And let every man take a vessel for burning perfumes, and put sweet spices in them; let every man take his vessel before the Lord, two hundred and fifty vessels; you and Aaron and everyone with his vessel.
18 Chu in amaho jousen maicham meihalna chu akilah cheh un, meikong chu ahal un Pathen maicham lutna phol lam a maicham phunga chun Mose le Aaron jong ading khom lhon’e.
So every man took his vessel and they put fire in them, with spices, and came to the door of the Tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron.
19 Hiche phat don laitah chun Korah in mipi tam tah ahin tildoh tan Mose le Aaron gotna pe ding in amaho jouse chu houbuh maicham leitol lutna laitah’a chun aki khom khom tauvin ahi. Hiche Pathen loupina chu mipi holah’a hatah in ahung kilang doh tan ahi.
And Korah made all the people come together against them to the door of the Tent of meeting: and the glory of the Lord was seen by all the people.
20 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose le Aaron henga thu aseijin ahi.
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
21 Mipi ho lah’a kon in kinung khin doh lhon tan ajeh chu amaho hi abonchauva gang tah’a ka suh mang ding ahi tai.
Come out from among this people, so that I may send sudden destruction on them.
22 Amavang Mose le Aaron chu tol lhamma amai anga hon tan, O Pakai ati lhon in atao lhon tai. Pakai, Pathen nangma hinna nei jouse sempa chu na hi. Mikhat chonsetna jeh mei meiya mi jouse na suhgam jeng ding hitam ati lhon e.
Then falling down on their faces they said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, because of one man's sin will your wrath be moved against all the people?
23 Chu in Pakaiyin Mose henga thu aseiyin.
And the Lord said to Moses,
24 Khuti ahi leh Mipi ho chu seipeh tan, Korah ahin, Dothan chuleh Abiram houbuh a konna kichon doh ding’in seipeh in ati.
Say to the people, Come away from the tent of Korah Dathan, and Abiram.
25 Chu in Mose chu a ding doh in Israel Upa ho jao na in, Dothan le Abiram ki ngah na mumna pon buh lamma chun alhai tauvin ahi.
So Moses got up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the responsible men of Israel went with him.
26 Mose’n mipi ho komma chun gangtah in hiche migilou ho henga pat chun kikhin doh un chule nangman Amaho thilho jouse na tham khah lou ding, natham khat le achonset jeh uva gotna nachan thei diu ahi.
And he said to the people, Come away now from the tents of these evil men, without touching anything of theirs, or you may be taken in the punishment of their sins.
27 Hichun mipi jouse chu Dotham le Abiram chule Korah khoi lu pon in na kon in a kikhin doh tauvin ahi. Hi chun Dothan, Abiram le ajite ho ahiuvin achate ho jouse jaonan khoilu pon buh kisah na leitol la ahung un ahi.
So on every side they went away from the tent of Korah Dathan, and Abiram: and Dathan and Abiram came out to the door of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones.
28 Chuin Mose’n aseijin, Pakaiyin eihin sol lona pentah katoh kabol dingho hi keima chang’a kabol theilou ahi.
And Moses said, Now you will see that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, and I have not done them of myself.
29 Hiche miho hi thi ngaina a athi uva, kivui ngai bang’a aki vui poupou uleh, Keihi Pathen hinsol kahi lou himei hen.
If these men have the common death of men, or if the natural fate of all men overtakes them, then the Lord has not sent me.
30 Ahinlah Pathen, thilsoh thah khat abol ding, Leiset in akam akah’a amaho chu anei agou jouse’u toh avel lhum di’u, chuleh kotong sung’a chu khelut ding’u ahi. Chuteng chu leh hite ho hin Pathen asu lunghang tauve tihi na het doh thei diu ahitai ati. (Sheol h7585)
But if the Lord does something new, opening the earth to take them in, with everything which is theirs, and they go down living into the underworld, then it will be clear to you that the Lord has not been honoured by these men. (Sheol h7585)
31 Mose’n hiche thucheng ho seichai man loulai jin, Leiset chu ahung poh keh in Amaho noilam a chun a joplha gam tauve.
And while these words were on his lips, the earth under them was parted in two;
32 Korah mite jouse jong aloi agol ho chuleh anei agou abonchauvin hiche leivui chun akam akah in abonchauvin aval lhum soh heltai.
And the earth, opening her mouth, took them in, with their families, and all the men who were joined to Korah, and their goods.
33 Hichun amaho ahing lai pum in lhankhuh chu ajon tauvin anei agou hou jouse toh avuh khum tha tauve, chule amaho jouse chu Israel mipi te chilhah a kon in agamlha ahi tauve. (Sheol h7585)
So they and all theirs went down living into the underworld, and the earth was shut over them, and they were cut off from among the meeting of the people. (Sheol h7585)
34 Mipi avel’a umjouse chu amaho ka-le-mao awgin ajah phat un atija lheh jeng un; “Eiho jong Leiset hin eivel lhum diu ahi tai” atiuve.
And all Israel round about them went in flight at their cry, For fear, said they, that we go down into the heart of the earth.
35 Pathen akon in mei ahung kong in, Pasal jani le somnga chu ahal vam soh tai.
Then fire came out from the Lord, burning up the two hundred and fifty men who were offering the perfume.
36 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose henga thu asei jin.
And the Lord said to Moses,
37 Aaron thempupa chapa Eleazar seipeh tan, Amaho atheng ahi jeh uchun, kipat untin gimnamtui kihal na lhengkong ho chu mei-am lah’a kon in loidoh henlang, a mei-am ho jong chu thaijah ta’u hen,
Say to Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, that he is to take out of the flames the vessels with the perfumes in them, turning the fire out of them, for they are holy;
38 Hiche ahing’a chonset bolhon amanchah kilhaina Lhengkong hochu chomkhom uvin lang, Maicham khuna ding asin in sem un, ajeh chu amahon Pathen lhaina dia akatdoh sa’u ahin atheng a kisim ahi. Chuleh Hiche thilsoh hi Israel chate adin melchihna hi jing hen.
And let the vessels of those men, who with their lives have made payment for their sin, be hammered out into plates as a cover for the altar; for they have been offered before the Lord and are holy; so that they may be a sign to the children of Israel.
39 Hichun Eleazar thempu pan mi meiyin akahvamho sum-eng lhengkong hochu achom khom in, Maicham phun khutup na sinkha din akheng tai.
So Eleazar the priest took the brass vessels which had been offered by those who were burned up, and they were hammered out to make a cover for the altar:
40 Hiche hin Israel mite jouse a suhchih ding, koi hita jong leh nganse’a um Aaron insung mite hilou chun Pathen angsung’a gimnamtui hal dia lut loudiu ahi. A juilou chu Korah leh achilhah te banga um ding ahi tihi Pathen in Mose komma aseisa ahi tai.
To be a sign, kept in memory for ever by the children of Israel, that no man who is not of the seed of Aaron has the right of burning spices before the Lord, so that he may not be like Korah and his band: as the Lord said to him by the mouth of Moses.
41 Ahinlah ajing nikho’n Israel mite chun Mose le Aaron chu a oimo pan kit tauvin, “Nang nin Pathen mite nathat lhon’e” atiuve.
But on the day after, all the children of Israel made an outcry against Moses and against Aaron, saying, You have put to death the Lord's people.
42 Hiti chun mipite ho chun Mose le Aaron doudalna a, houbuh sung ano khum kigot laitah un Pathen loupina chu ahung kilang doh in, Meibol in ahin tom tai.
Now when the people had come together against Moses and Aaron, looking in the direction of the Tent of meeting, they saw the cloud covering it, and the glory of the Lord came before their eyes.
43 Mose le Aaron chu ahung lhei lhontan houbuh masang’a ading lhon tan, ahi.
Then Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of meeting.
44 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose henga hiti hin aseijin ahi.
And the Lord said to Moses,
45 Hi tobang mihem ho lah a kon in kikhin doh lhon tan keiman amaho abonchauva ka suh gam ding ahi tai. Mose le Aaron chu tol’ah abohkhup lhon tai.
Come out from among this people, so that I may send sudden destruction on them. And they went down on their faces.
46 Chu in Mose’n Aaron komma asei jin nangman gangtah in maicham meikhat chu la inlang, houbuh maicham sem inlang Amaho din Pathen toh ki houcham loijin, ajeh chu gamna hise akipan tai.
And Moses said to Aaron, Take your vessel and put in it fire from the altar, and sweet spices, and take it quickly into the meeting of the people, and make them free from sin: for wrath has gone out from the Lord, and the disease is starting.
47 Aron in Mose seibang chun abol lin mipi te lah ah chu alhei lut in, gimnamtui ahal in mipi ho adin kilhaina abol in, alangsa gamna hise chu sutang ding agoi.
And at the words of Moses, Aaron took his vessel, and went running among the people; and even then the disease had made a start among them; and he put spices in his vessel to take away the sin of the people.
48 Aaron chun mihem athi leh ahingho kikah ah palai jin ading in hichun pul chu atang tai.
And he took his place between the dead and the living: and the disease was stopped.
49 Ahinlah pasal sangsom-le-sangli leh jasagi chu a thigam hel man tan hichu Korah chungchang jeh’a thiho kisim thalou ahi.
Now fourteen thousand, seven hundred deaths were caused by that disease, in addition to those who came to their end because of what Korah had done.
50 Thina hise chu atan phat in, Aaron jong houbuh lutna kom a Mose heng lam chu ahin jon tan ahi.
Then Aaron went back to Moses to the door of the Tent of meeting: and the disease came to a stop.
