Kwan 16
1 Kora wuod Izhar, ma wuod Kohath, ma wuod Lawi, kod joka Reuben moko kaka Dathan gi Abiram, ma yawuot Eliab kod On wuod Peleth noriwore kaachiel
Then, behold, Korah the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and also On the son of Peleth, of the sons of Ruben,
2 kendo negichokore mondo giked gi Musa. Kaachiel kodgi ne nitiere jo-Israel mia ariyo gi piero abich, ma jotend oganda mongʼere mane oseyier kaka jakanyo mar bura.
rose up against Moses, with two hundred fifty others of the sons of Israel, leading men of the assembly, and who, at the time of a council, would be called by name.
3 Negibiro kaka oganda achiel mochokore mondo giked gi Musa kod Harun kendo negiwachonegi niya, “Usetimo mokalo tongʼ! Oganda duto ler, ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomgi, kendo Jehova Nyasaye ni kodgi. En angʼo momiyo koro uketoru malo moloyo oganda mar Jehova Nyasaye?”
And when they had stood against Moses and Aaron, they said: “Let it be sufficient for you that the entire multitude is of holy ones, and that the Lord is among them. Why do you elevate yourselves above the people of the Lord?”
4 Kane Musa owinjo wachno, nopodho piny auma.
When Moses had heard this, he fell prone on his face.
5 Eka nowacho ne Kora kod jolupne duto niya, “Kochopo gokinyi Jehova Nyasaye noyier joma oyie kuome kendo maler, kendo norwak ngʼatno obi bute.
And speaking to Korah, and to the entire multitude, he said: “In the morning, the Lord will cause it to be known who belongs to him, and which holy ones he will join to himself. And whomever he will choose, they shall be close to him.
6 To in, Kora, kod joma luwou duto nyaka tim ma: Kawuru ubani
Therefore, do this: Each one of you, Korah and all your associates, take your censer,
7 kendo kiny umok mach kod gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Ngʼatno ma Jehova Nyasaye oyiero ema nobed ngʼama ler. Un jo-Lawi usekalo tongʼ!”
and drawing fire into it tomorrow, place incense upon it before the Lord. And whomever he will choose, the same shall be holy. You sons of Levi have been raised up greatly.”
8 Musa bende nowacho ne Kora niya, “Koro Winjuru, un jo-Lawi!
And he said again to Korah: “Listen, sons of Levi.
9 Ok lichnu ni Nyasach Israel osegolou oko mar oganda jo-Israel mamoko kendo okelou bute owuon mondo uti e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo mondo uchung e nyim oganda kendo utinegi?
Is it a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from all the people, and has joined you to himself, so that you would serve him in the rituals of the tabernacle, and stand before gatherings of the people, and minister to him?
10 Osekelou kod jo-Lawi weteu duto bute, to koro sani utemo bedo jodolo bende.
Was the reason that he caused you and all your brothers, the sons of Levi, to approach him, so that you would even claim for yourselves the priesthood too,
11 Un kaachiel gi joma luwou duto usengʼanyo ni Jehova Nyasaye. Harun to en ngʼa ma ungʼurne?”
and so that your entire group would stand against the Lord? For what is Aaron that you should murmur against him?”
12 Eka Musa noluongo Dathan kod Abiram, ma yawuot Eliab. To negiwacho niya, “Ok wanabi!
Therefore, Moses sent to call for Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, who responded: “We will not come.
13 Ok lichni ni isegolowa e piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich mondo inegwa e thim? Kendo sani koro idwaro miyowa tingʼ mapek?
Is it a small matter to you, that you have led us away from a land that was flowing with milk and honey, so as to kill us in the desert, unless you could also be a ruler over us?
14 Kata kamano, pod ok ikelowa e piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich kata miyowa girkeni mag puothe kod puothe mag mzabibu. Ubiro lodho wenge jogi oko? Ngangʼ, ok wanabi!”
You have led us, it is true, to a land that flows with streams of milk and honey, and you have given us possession of fields and vineyards. But will you also tear out our eyes? We will not come.”
15 Eka Musa iye nowangʼ matek mi owachone Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Kik iyie gi misengini mag-gi. Pod ok akawo kata mana punda achiel koa kuomgi, kata mana kethone ngʼato angʼata kuomgi.”
And Moses, being very angry, said to the Lord: “Do not look with favor on their sacrifices. You know that I have not accepted from them, at any time, so much as a young donkey, nor have I afflicted any of them.”
16 Musa nowacho ne Kora niya, “In kaachiel gi jolupni duto kod Harun bende nyaka ubi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
And he said to Korah: “You and your congregation, stand alone before the Lord, and apart from Aaron, tomorrow.
17 Ngʼato ka ngʼato nyaka kaw tape owuon ma mach ni e yie kendo oketie ubani mangʼwe ngʼar madirom mia ariyo gi piero abich mi uchiwe e nyim Jehova Nyasaye in kaachiel gi Harun.”
Let each one of you take censers, and place incense in them, offering to the Lord two hundred fifty censers. Let Aaron also hold his censer.”
18 Omiyo ngʼato ka ngʼato nokawo tape owuon ma mach nitie iye kendo oketoe ubani mangʼwe ngʼar mine gichungʼ kod Musa gi Harun e dhoranga Hemb Romo.
When they had done this, Moses and Aaron stood up,
19 Kane Kora osechoko joge duto mondo okwedgo Musa gi Harun e dhoranga Hemb Romo, duongʼ Jehova Nyasaye ne onyisore ayanga ne oganda mane ochokore duto.
and, having crowded the entire multitude close to them at the door of the tabernacle, the glory of the Lord appeared to them all.
20 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kod Harun niya,
And the Lord, speaking to Moses and Aaron, said:
21 “Pogreuru gi kanyakla mar ogandani mondo omi atiekgi chuth.”
“Separate yourselves from the midst of this congregation, so that I may suddenly destroy them.”
22 To Musa kod Harun nopodho auma moywak niya, “Yaye Nyasaye, mongʼeyo chunje duto mag dhano, iyi diwangʼ gi kanyakla mar ogandagi duto ka en mana ngʼato achiel ema otimo richo?”
But they fell prone on their faces, and they said, “O most strong One, the God of the spirits of all flesh, should your anger rage against all, for the sin of one?”
23 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa ni,
And the Lord said to Moses:
24 “Wachne kanyakla mar oganda kama: ‘Daruru uwuog machiegni gi hembe Kora, Dathan kod Abiram.’”
“Instruct the entire people to separate from the tents of Korah, and Dathan, and Abiram.”
25 Musa noa malo modhi ir Dathan kod Abiram, kendo jodong Israel noluwe.
And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram. And the elders of Israel followed him,
26 Nochiwo siem ne kanyakla mar oganda niya, “Suduru mabor gi hembe jogo ma timbegi richo! Kik umul girgi moro amora, ka ok kamano to ubiro lal nono nikech richo mag-gi.”
and he said to the crowd, “Withdraw from the tabernacles of these impious men, and touch nothing which pertains to them, lest you become involved in their sins.”
27 Omiyo negisudo mabor gi hembe mag Kora, Dathan kod Abiram. Dathan kod Abiram nosewuok oko kendo negichungo gi mondegi, nyithindgi kod rowere mag-gi e dhoranga hembegi.
And when they had withdrawn from their tents all around, Dathan and Abiram came out and stood at the entrance of their pavilions, with their wives and children, and with all their associates.
28 Eka Musa nowacho niya, “Ma e kaka ubiro ngʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye ema noora mondo atim gigi duto kendo ni ne ok en pacha awuon:
And Moses said: “By this shall you know that the Lord has sent me to do all that you discern, and that I have not brought these things out of my own heart:
29 Ka dipo ni jogi otho mana kaka ji duto nyalo tho, to kare Jehova Nyasaye ne ok oora.
If these men pass away by the common death of men, or if they will be visited by a scourge, of a kind by which others are often visited, then the Lord did not send me.
30 To ka Jehova Nyasaye okelo gima nyien mopogore gi mago duto mapile, kendo ma piny oyawo dhoge mi omwonyogi, gi gik moko duto ma mekgi, kendo ma gidhi ei bur ka gingima, eka unungʼe ni jogi osewuotho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye gi achaya.” (Sheol h7585)
But if the Lord accomplishes something new, so that the earth opens its mouth and swallows them whole, along with everything that belongs to them, and they descend alive into the underworld, then you shall know that they have blasphemed the Lord.” (Sheol h7585)
31 Mana gi sa mane otieko wacho gigi, lowo mane ni e bwo tiendgi nobarore,
Therefore, as soon as he had ceased to speak, the earth broke open under their feet.
32 kendo piny noyawo dhoge mi omwonyogi, gi joodgi duto kod joka Kora duto kod mwandugi duto.
And opening its mouth, it devoured them with their tabernacles and their entire substance.
33 Negidhi e bur kagingima mi lowo uomogi kod mwandugi kendo negilal nono ei oganda Israel. (Sheol h7585)
And they descended alive, the ground closing around them, into the underworld, and they perished from the midst of the multitude. (Sheol h7585)
34 E kinde mane giywak, jo-Israel duto mane ni machiegni kodgi noringo, kaywak niya, “Wan bende piny dhi mwonyowa!”
Yet truly, all of Israel, which was standing all around, took flight at the clamor of those who were perishing, saying, “Lest perhaps the earth may swallow us whole also.”
35 Kendo mach nowuok koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye mi owangʼo ji mia ariyo gi piero abich mane oyudo chiwo misango mangʼwe ngʼar.
Then, too, a fire, going forth from the Lord, put to death the two hundred fifty men who were offering the incense.
36 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
37 “Nyis Eliazar wuod Harun, ma jadolo, mondo ogol tawo miwangʼo ubani kendo okee mirni mar mach mabor, nimar tawono ler
“Instruct Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, to take up the censers which lie in the burning, and to scatter the fire to one side and another, because they were sanctified
38 nimar gin tawo mag joma otimo richo ewi ngimagi giwegi. Los tawono moriere kendo iketgi ewi kendo mar misango, nimar nochiwgi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo gisebedo maler. We gibed ranyisi ne jo-Israel.”
in the deaths of these sinners. And let him form them into plates, and affix them to the altar, because incense had been offered in them to the Lord, and they were sanctified, and so that the sons of Israel may discern in them a sign and a memorial.”
39 Omiyo Eliazar jadolo nochoko tawo mar mula mane okel gi jogo mane osewangʼ, kendo nochokogi kanyakla monywasogi mondo muon-go kendo mar misango,
Therefore, Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers, by which those whom the burning devoured had made an offering, and he formed them into plates, affixing them to the altar,
40 mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike kokalo kuom Musa. Ma ne parone jo-Israel ni onge ngʼato angʼata makmana nyikwa Harun ema onego bi mondo owangʼ gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ka ok kamano to obiro chalo kaka Kora kod jolupne.
so that the sons of Israel would have, thereafter, something to admonish them, lest any stranger, or anyone who is not of the offspring of Aaron, might approach to offer incense to the Lord, and lest he endure what happened to Korah, and to all his congregation, when the Lord spoke to Moses.
41 Kinyne oganda mar jo-Israel duto nongʼurne Musa kod Harun. Negiwachonegi niya, “Usenego jo-Jehova Nyasaye.”
Then, the following day, the entire multitude of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron, saying: “You have put to death the people of the Lord.”
42 To ka ogandano nochokore mar kwedo Musa kod Harun kendo gilokore ka gingʼiyo Hemb Romo, apoya nono boche polo noume kendo duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye noyangore.
And when there arose a sedition, and the tumult increased,
43 Eka Musa kod Harun nodhi e nyim Hemb Romo,
Moses and Aaron fled to the tabernacle of the covenant. But after they had entered it, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
44 kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
And the Lord said to Moses:
45 “Wuogi e kanyakla mondo omi atiekgi chuth.” Kendo Musa gi Harun nopodho auma e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
“Withdraw from the midst of this multitude, and I will destroy them immediately.” And while they were lying on the ground,
46 Eka Musa nowacho ne Harun niya, “Kaw tawo mar ubani mari kendo iket gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar e iye, kaachiel gi mach moa e kendo mar misango, kendo iret idhi e chokruokno mondo itimnegi misango mar pwodhruok e richo. Mirima osebiro koa ir Jehova Nyasaye; masiche osechakore.”
Moses said to Aaron: “Take the censer, and draw fire into it from the altar; place incense upon it, and continue on, quickly, to the people, to pray for them. For already wrath has gone forth from the Lord, and the scourge rages.”
47 Omiyo Harun notimo kaka Musa nowachone, kendo noringo modhi e dier chokruok. Masira ne osechakore e dier ji, to Harun nochiwo gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar kendo nokwayonegi ngʼwono kuom gima gisetimo.
When Aaron had done this, and he had run into the midst of the multitude, which the burning fire was now destroying, he offered the incense.
48 Nochungʼ e kind joma ngima gi joma otho, mi masiche norumo.
And standing between the dead and the living, he prayed for the people, and the scourge ceased.
49 Makmana ji alufu apar gangʼwen gi mia abiriyo nosetho nikech masichego, komedore gi jogo mane osetho nikech Kora.
But the number of those who were struck down was fourteen thousand men, and seven hundred, aside from those who had perished in the sedition of Korah.
50 Eka Harun noduogo ir Musa e dhoranga Hemb Romo, nimar masiche noserumo.
And Aaron returned to Moses at the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, after the destruction quieted.
