Milu Pareinae 14
1 Hahoi teh, kamkhuengnaw pueng ni hote tangmin puenghoi a khuika awh.
And all the congregation lifts up, and they give forth their voice, and the people weep during that night;
2 Isarel catounnaw pueng Mosi hoi Aron koe a phuenang awh. Kamkhueng e tamimaya koevah, Izip ram vah dout awh ngala pawiteh, hoehpawiteh hete kahrawngum dout ngala pawiteh,
and all the sons of Israel murmur against Moses and against Aaron, and all the congregation says to them, “O that we had died in the land of Egypt, or in this wilderness, O that we had died!
3 bangkongmaw, tahloi hoi thei vaiteh, yuca pueng taran kut dawk pha sak hanelah maw BAWIPA ni hete ram dawk na ceikhai. Izip ram bout ban pawiteh, maimouh han bet a hawihnawn nahoehmaw telah ati awh.
And why is YHWH bringing us to this land to fall by the sword, [that] our wives and our infants become a prey? Is it not good for us to return to Egypt?”
4 Hahoi a kamkhueng awh teh kahrawikung rawi vaiteh, Izip ram vah ban awh sei telah ati awh.
And they say to one another, “Let us appoint a head and return to Egypt.”
5 Mosi hoi Aron teh kamkhueng e Isarelnaw pueng e hmalah a tabo roi.
And Moses falls—Aaron also—on their faces, before all the assembly of the congregation of the sons of Israel.
6 Hateiteh, Nun capa Joshua hoi Jephunneh capa Kalep, ram katuetnaw thung dawk ka bawk roi van e ni a hni a phi roi teh,
And Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, of those spying out the land, have torn their garments,
7 kamkhueng e Isarelnaw pueng koe tuet hanelah ka cei sin awh e ram teh, kahawi poung tangngak e doeh.
and they speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, “The land into which we have passed over to spy it out [is] a very, very good land;
8 Maimouh koe BAWIPA a lunghawi pawiteh, ama ni na cetkhai awh vaiteh, khoitui hoi sanutui a lawngnae ram teh na poe han doeh.
if YHWH has delighted in us, then He has brought us into this land, and has given it to us, a land which is flowing with milk and honey;
9 BAWIPA taranlahoi taranthaw laipalah, hote ram dawk e tami taket laipalah, awm awh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh teh maimae rawca lah doeh awm awh ti, ahnimanaw teh a kângue awh e awm hoeh. BAWIPA teh maimouh koe ao. Ahnimouh teh taket awh hanh sei telah ati roi.
only, do not rebel against YHWH: and you, do not fear the people of the land, for they [are] our bread; their defense has turned aside from off them, and YHWH [is] with us; do not fear them.”
10 Hahoi ka kamkhueng e pueng ni talung hoi dêi han a noe awh. Hahoi BAWIPA bawilennae teh kamkhuengnae lukkareiim dawk hoi Isarelnaw pueng e hmalah a kamnue pouh.
And all the congregation says to stone them with stones, and the glory of YHWH has appeared in the Tent of Meeting to all the sons of Israel.
11 BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah hete taminaw pueng nâtotouh maw na pahnawt awh han. Ahnimouh koe mitnoutnae ka sak pouh ei teh, nâtotouh maw yuem laipalah ao awh han.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Until when does this people despise Me? And until when do they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have done in its midst?
12 Lacik hoi ka yue vaiteh, be ka pahma ngala han. Nang dawkvah, ahnimouh hlak ka sungren e hoi hno ka tet thai e miphun ka kangdue sak han telah a ti.
I strike it with pestilence, and dispossess it, and make you become a nation greater and mightier than it.”
13 Mosi ni BAWIPA koevah hot teh Izipnaw ni thai langvaih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete tamihupui heh na thao e lahoi na tâcokhai e naw doeh.
And Moses says to YHWH, “Then the Egyptians have heard! For with Your power You have brought up this people out of their midst,
14 Hot teh hete ram taminaw koe a dei pou han. BAWIPA nang teh hete taminaw koevah na o teh, BAWIPA nang nama teh minhmai phek kadangka lah na hmu awh kanîthun tâmaikhom hoi karum lah hmaikhom hoi a hmalah na cei pouh tie a panue awh toe.
and they have said [it] to the inhabitant of this land, they have heard that You, YHWH, [are] in the midst of this people, that You are seen eye to eye—O YHWH, and Your cloud is standing over them—and in a pillar of cloud You are going before them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.
15 Hot patetlah hete tamimaya heh tami buet touh e patetlah na thei pawiteh, na min kamthang ka panuek e miphunnaw ni,
And You have put to death this people as one man, and the nations who have heard Your fame have spoken, saying,
16 BAWIPA ni hete tamimayanaw heh thoebo hoi a kam e ram dawk a hrawi thai hoeh dawkvah, kahrawngum koung a thei telah a dei awh han.
From YHWH’s want of ability to bring in this people to the land which He has sworn to them, He slaughters them in the wilderness.
17 BAWIPA ni a lungsaw teh lungmanae hoi ka kawi e, payonnae hoi kâtapoenae ka ngaithoumkung yonpen e naw kayawicalah hloutsak laipalah,
And now, please let the power of my Lord be great, as You have spoken, saying,
18 napanaw yonnae kecu dawk canaw, catounnaw se thum se pali totouh, ouk karekkung doeh na a telah na dei tangcoung e patetlah BAWIPA na hnosakthainae teh, hoe lentoe lawiseh.
YHWH [is] slow to anger and of great kindness, bearing away iniquity and transgression, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on a third and on a fourth [generation]—
19 Na lungmanae a pap e patetlah hoi Izip ram hoi atu totouh na ngaithoum e patetlah na tamimaya e payonnae naw hah ngaithoum pouh haw telah ka ratoum.
please forgive the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Your kindness, and as You have borne with this people from Egypt, even until now.”
20 Hat toteh, BAWIPA ni na lawk patetlah ka ngaithoum toe.
And YHWH says, “I have forgiven according to your word,
21 Hatei, ka hring e patetlah BAWIPA bawilennae hoi talai heh muen a kawi han.
but nevertheless, as I live, indeed, the whole earth is filled [with] the glory of YHWH,
22 Izip ram hoi kahrawngum ka sak e naw bawilennae hoi kângairunae a hmuen teh, vai hra totouh na tanouk teh, ka lawk ka ngaihoeh e naw pueng ni,
for all the men who are seeing My glory and My signs which I have done in Egypt and in the wilderness, and try Me these ten times, and have not listened to My voice—
23 kakhekungnaw koe thoebo nalaihoi ka kam pouh e ram teh, hmawt awh roeroe mahoeh. Ahnimouh rahak ka lawk banglahai ka ngaihoehnaw ni hmawt mahoeh.
they do not see the land which I have sworn to their fathers, indeed, none of those despising Me see it;
24 Hatei, ka san Kalep, aloukcalah kaawm e muitha hah tawn teh, atangcalah ka hnuk a kâbang dawk, ahni teh a pâtam e ram koe ka hrawi vaiteh, a catounnaw ni a coe awh han.
but My servant Caleb, because there has been another spirit with him, and he is fully after Me—I have brought him into the land to where he has entered, and his seed possesses it.
25 Atuvah, Amaleknaw hoi Kanaan taminaw hah ayawn dawk ao awh. Tangtho vah ban awh nateh tuipui paling lam koelah hoi kahrawng dawk kâen awh telah a ti.
And the Amalekite and the Canaanite are dwelling in the valley; tomorrow turn and journey for yourselves into the wilderness—the way of the Red Sea.”
26 BAWIPA ni, Mosi hoi Aron a pato teh,
And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
27 hete kamkhueng e tamikathoutnaw e phuenangnae heh, nâtotouh maw ka ring han. Kai taranlahoi Isarel catounnaw lai a roe awh e ka thai.
“Until when [do I bear] with this evil congregation—they who are murmuring against Me? The murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they are murmuring against Me, I have heard;
28 Ahnimouh koe ka hring e patetlah ka hnâthainae koe na dei awh e patetlah nangmouh lathueng ka sak han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
say to them: As I live—a declaration of YHWH—if, as you have spoken in My ears, do I not do so to you?
29 Nangmouh ni milu na parei awh teh na touk awh tangcoung e patetlah, kum 20 lathueng kai koe laikaroenaw pueng teh, hete kahrawngum vah ro lah a o awh han.
Your carcasses fall in this wilderness, even all your numbered ones, to all your number, from a son of twenty years and upward, who have murmured against Me;
30 Kai ni hete ram dawk na o sak awh awh han ka ti e ram dawkvah, Jephunneh capa Kalep hoi Nun capa Joshua laipateh api hai phat awh mahoeh.
you do not come into the land [for] which I have lifted up My hand to cause you to dwell in it, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
31 Hatei, thei hanelah doeh ao awh, na tie na canaw hah ka kâen sak vaiteh, na ngai awh hoeh ram dawk kho a sak awh han.
As for your infants—of whom you have said, They become a spoil—I have even brought them in, and they have known the land which you have kicked against;
32 Hatei, nangmanaw teh na ronaw ramke dawk koung a kamlei han.
as for you—your carcasses fall in this wilderness,
33 Na capanaw hah kahrawngum vah kum 40 touh a kâva awh vaiteh, ramke dawk a ro hah a pawk awh hoehroukrak, namamouh na kâyo phu na phu awh han.
and your sons are shepherding in the wilderness [for] forty years, and have borne your whoredoms until your carcasses are consumed in the wilderness;
34 Ram na tuetnae hnin 40 touh hah, hnin touh yueng lah kum touh telah to lahoi kum 40 touh thung kâtapoe phu na khang awh han. Ka noenae yo a kâthung toe tie na panue awh han.
by the number of the days [in] which you spied out the land, forty days—a day for a year, a day for a year—you bear your iniquities [for] forty years, and you have known My opposition;
35 Kai BAWIPA ni hete tamikathoutnaw kai taranlahoi kamkhueng e maya pueng koevah, hetheh ka sak roeroe han ka ti toe. Hete kahrawngum vah kahmakata vaiteh, hawvah a due awh han ati telah a dei tet pouh loe.
I, YHWH, have spoken; if, nonetheless, I do this to all this evil congregation who are meeting against Me—they are consumed in this wilderness, and there they die.”
36 Hottelah ram tuet hanlah Mosi ni a patoun teh ka ban awh e ram kong kamthang kathout lah ka pathang e naw, ama taranlahoi tamimaya lai ka roe sak e hoi,
Then the men whom Moses has sent to spy out the land, [who] then return and cause all the congregation to murmur against him by bringing out an evil account concerning the land,
37 ram kong dawk kamthangmathout kaphawtnaw roeroe hah BAWIPA hmalah lacik hoi a due awh.
even the men bringing out an evil account of the land, they die by the plague before YHWH;
38 Hatei, ram tuet han kacetnaw thung dawk Nun capa Joshua hoi Jephunneh capa Kalep teh a hring roi rah.
and Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh have lived, of those men who go to spy out the land.
39 Hat toteh, Mosi ni hote lawk teh Isarelnaw pueng koevah a dei pouh teh, taminaw pueng ni a thai awh teh a lung koung a mathoe awh.
And Moses speaks these words to all the sons of Israel, and the people mourn exceedingly,
40 Hottelah amom vah a thaw teh, monsom vah a luen. Khenhaw, ka tho toe. BAWIPA ni na kam pouh e koelah ka cei han. Bangkong, ka payon toe telah a ti.
and they rise early in the morning, and go up to the top of the mountain, saying, “Here we [are], and we have come up to the place which YHWH has spoken of, for we have sinned.”
41 Mosi ni, bangkongmaw BAWIPA kâpoelawk na ek awh, Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete ni kuepcing sak thai mahoeh toe.
And Moses says, “Why [is] this [that] you are transgressing the command of YHWH? For it does not prosper;
42 Takhang awh hanh, telah hoehpawiteh, na tarannaw ni na tâ awh han, bangdawk nangmouh koe BAWIPA awm hoeh.
do not go up, for YHWH is not in your midst, and you are not struck before your enemies;
43 Nangmouh hmalah Ameleknaw hoi Kanaannaw a o, tahloi hoi be na thet awh langvaih. BAWIPA teh na kamlang takhai dawkvah nangmouh koe BAWIPA awm hoeh telah a ti.
for the Amalekite and the Canaanite [are] there before you, and you have fallen by the sword, because that you have turned back from after YHWH, and YHWH is not with you.”
44 Hatei, monsom cei han pou a kâcai awh. Hatei BAWIPA lawkkam thingkong hoi Mosi hai rim dawk hoi tâcawt hoeh.
And they presume to go up to the top of the mountain, but the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, and Moses, have not departed out of the midst of the camp.
45 Hottelah hot mon dawk kaawmnaw Ameleknaw hoi Kanaannaw hah a cathuk awh teh, a tuk awh. Hormah totouh a pâlei awh.
And the Amalekite and the Canaanite who are dwelling in that mountain come down and strike them, and beat them down to Hormah.
