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,
And Korah, son of Izhar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, takes both Dathan and Abiram sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth, sons of Reuben,
2 Israel chilhah jouse phung lamkai jani le somnga jaonan Mose doumah in achon tauve.
and they rise up before Moses with men of the sons of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the congregation, called of the convention, men of renown,
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.
and they are assembled against Moses and against Aaron, and say to them, “Enough of you! For all the congregation—all of them [are] holy, and YHWH [is] in their midst; and why do you lift yourselves up above the assembly of YHWH?”
4 Mose’n Amaho thusei ajah phat chun a kaiku jeng tan ahi.
And Moses hears, and falls 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 speaks to Korah and to all his congregation, saying, “Indeed, [in the] morning YHWH may cause [you] to know those who are His and him who is holy, and has brought [him] near to Him; even him whom He fixes on He brings near to Him.
6 Vo Korah nangma na hin nanung juiten, jing teng maicham thaomei halna chu na hin kichoi diu ahi ati.
Do this: take censers for yourselves—Korah and all his company—
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 fire in them and put incense on them before YHWH tomorrow, and it has been, the man whom YHWH chooses, he [is] the holy one—enough of you, sons of Levi!”
8 Chu in Mose’n Korah henga asei in, Levite insung injong ngai un,
And Moses says to Korah, “Now hear, 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.
is it little to you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel to bring you near to Himself, to do the service of the Dwelling Place of YHWH, and to stand before the congregation to serve 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.
Indeed, He brings you near, and all your brothers, the sons of Levi, with you—and you have also sought the priesthood!
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?
Therefore, you and all your congregation are meeting against YHWH; and Aaron, what [is] he, that you murmur 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.
And Moses sends to call for Dathan and for Abiram, sons of Eliab, and they say, “We do 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 little that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in a wilderness, that you also certainly make yourself prince 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.
Indeed, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor do you give an inheritance of field and vineyard to us; do you pick out the eyes of these men? We do 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.
And it is very displeasing to Moses, and he says to YHWH, “Do not turn to their present; I have not taken one donkey from them, nor have I afflicted one 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 says to Korah, “You and all your congregation, be [present] before YHWH—you, and they, and Aaron—tomorrow;
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 each take his censer and you have put incense on them, and each has brought his censer near before YHWH—two hundred and fifty censers; indeed, you and Aaron, each [with] his censer.”
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.
And they each take his censer, and put fire on them, and lay incense on them, and they stand at the opening 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 assembles all the congregation against them at the opening of the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of YHWH is seen by all the congregation.
20 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose le Aaron henga thu aseijin ahi.
And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
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.
“Be separated from the midst of this congregation, and I consume them in a moment”;
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.
and they fall on their faces, and say, “God, God of the spirits of all flesh—one man sins, and are You angry against all the congregation?”
23 Chu in Pakaiyin Mose henga thu aseiyin.
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
24 Khuti ahi leh Mipi ho chu seipeh tan, Korah ahin, Dothan chuleh Abiram houbuh a konna kichon doh ding’in seipeh in ati.
“Speak to the congregation, saying, Go up from around the dwelling place 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.
And Moses rises, and goes to Dathan and Abiram, and [the] elderly of Israel go after 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 speaks to the congregation, saying, “Now turn aside from the tents of these wicked men, and do not come against anything that they have, lest you are consumed in all 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.
And they go up from the dwelling place of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, from all around, and Dathan and Abiram have come out, standing at the opening of their tents, with their wives, and their sons, and their infants.
28 Chuin Mose’n aseijin, Pakaiyin eihin sol lona pentah katoh kabol dingho hi keima chang’a kabol theilou ahi.
And Moses says, “By this you know that YHWH has sent me to do all these works, that [they are] not from my own heart;
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 die according to the death of all men, or the charge of all men is charged on them, YHWH 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 YHWH does a strange thing, and the ground has opened her mouth and swallowed them and all that they have, and they have gone down alive to Sheol, then you have known that these men have despised YHWH.” (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 it comes to pass at his finishing speaking all these words, that the ground which [is] under them cleaves,
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 opens her mouth and swallows them, and their houses, and all the men who [are] for Korah, and all the 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)
and they go down—they and all that they have—alive to Sheol, and the earth closes over them, and they perish from the midst of the assembly; (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 who [are] around them have fled at their voice, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us”;
35 Pathen akon in mei ahung kong in, Pasal jani le somnga chu ahal vam soh tai.
and fire has come out from YHWH and consumes the two hundred and fifty men bringing the incense near.
36 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose henga thu asei jin.
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
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 son of Aaron the priest to lift up the censers from the midst of the burning and scatter the fire away, for they have been hallowed.
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.
[As for] the censers of these sinners against their own souls, indeed, they have made them [into] spread-out plates [for] a covering for the altar, for they have brought them near before YHWH, and they are hallowed; and they become a sign to the sons 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.
And Eleazar the priest takes the bronze censers which they who are burned had brought near, and they spread them out [for] a covering 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.
a memorial to the sons of Israel, so that a stranger who is not of the seed of Aaron does not draw near to make incense before YHWH, and is not as Korah and as his congregation, as YHWH has spoken by the hand of Moses to him.
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.
And on the next day all the congregation of the sons of Israel murmurs against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have put the people of YHWH to death.”
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.
And it comes to pass, in the congregation being assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they turn toward the Tent of Meeting, and behold, the cloud has covered it and the glory of YHWH is seen;
43 Mose le Aaron chu ahung lhei lhontan houbuh masang’a ading lhon tan, ahi.
and Moses comes—Aaron also—to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
44 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose henga hiti hin aseijin ahi.
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
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.
“Get up from the midst of this congregation, and I consume them in a moment”; and they fall 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 says to Aaron, “Take the censer and put fire on it from off the altar, and place incense, and go quickly to the congregation and make atonement for them, for the wrath has gone out from the presence of YHWH—the plague has begun.”
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 Aaron takes [it] as Moses has spoken, and runs to the midst of the assembly, and behold, the plague has begun among the people; and he gives the incense, and makes atonement for the people,
48 Aaron chun mihem athi leh ahingho kikah ah palai jin ading in hichun pul chu atang tai.
and stands between the dead and the living, and the plague is restrained;
49 Ahinlah pasal sangsom-le-sangli leh jasagi chu a thigam hel man tan hichu Korah chungchang jeh’a thiho kisim thalou ahi.
and those who die by the plague are fourteen thousand and seven hundred, apart from those who die for the matter of Korah;
50 Thina hise chu atan phat in, Aaron jong houbuh lutna kom a Mose heng lam chu ahin jon tan ahi.
and Aaron turns back to Moses, to the opening of the Tent of Meeting, and the plague has been restrained.
