Numbers 14
1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried, and the people wept that night.
Pea naʻe hiki hake ʻae leʻo ʻoe kakai kotoa pē, ʻo tangi; pea naʻe tangi ʻae kakai ʻi he pō ko ia.
2 And all the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron. And the whole congregation said to them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt, or would that we had died in this wilderness!
Pea naʻe lāunga ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese pea mo ʻElone: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē kiate kinaua, “ʻAmusiaange ʻekimautolu ne mau mate ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite! Pea ʻamusiaange ʻekimautolu naʻa mau mate ʻi he toafa ni!
3 And why does Jehovah bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be a prey. Were it not better for us to return into Egypt?
Pea ko e hā kuo ʻomi ai ʻe Sihova ʻakimautolu ki he fonua ni, ke mau tō ʻi he heletā, kae tuku homau uaifi mo ʻemau fānau ke pōpula? ʻIkai ʻe lelei hake ʻemau toe foki ki ʻIsipite?”
4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki, ʻo pehē, “Ke tau fakanofo ha ʻeiki, pea tau foki ki ʻIsipite.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the sons of Israel.
Pea naʻe tō foʻohifo ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ki hona mata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.”
6 And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who spied out the land, tore their clothes.
Pea ko Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu naʻe vakai ki he fonua, pea naʻa na hae hona kofu:
7 And they spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceedingly good land.
Pea naʻa na lea ki he fakataha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko e fonua naʻa mau ʻalu ke vakai ki ai, ko e fungani fonua lelei.
8 If Jehovah delights in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it to us, a land which flows with milk and honey.
Kapau ʻe fiemālie ʻa Sihova ʻiate kitautolu, pea te ne ʻave ʻakitautolu ki he fonua ko ia, ʻo foaki ia kiate kitautolu; ko e fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi.
9 Only do not rebel against Jehovah, neither fear ye the people of the land, for they are bread for us. Their defense is removed from over them, and Jehovah is with us. Fear them not.
Ke ʻoua pe naʻa mou angatuʻu kia Sihova, pea ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē ki he kakai ʻoe fonua; he ko e meʻakai maʻatautolu ʻakinautolu: kuo mole honau mālohi ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻa Sihova: ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē kiate kinautolu.”
10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of Jehovah appeared in the tent of meeting to all the sons of Israel.
Ka naʻe tala ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ke lisingi ʻakinaua ʻaki ʻae maka. Pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli.
11 And Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people despise me? And how long will they not believe in me, for all the signs which I have wrought among them?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe fakaʻita mai ʻae kakai ni kiate au? ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo e teʻeki tenau tui kiate au, ʻi he ngaahi fakaʻilonga ne u fakahā kiate kinautolu?
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a nation greater and mightier than they.
Te u taaʻi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea te u liʻaki ʻakinautolu, pea te u ngaohi koe ko e puleʻanga lahi mo mālohi ʻiate kinautolu.”
13 And Moses said to Jehovah, Then the Egyptians will hear it, for thou brought up this people in thy might from among them,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova, “ʻE toki fanongo ki ai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, (he naʻa ke ʻomi ʻi ho mālohi ʻae kakai ni meiate kinautolu; )
14 and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that thou Jehovah are in the midst of this people, for thou Jehovah are seen face to face, and thy cloud stands over them, and thou go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.
Pea tenau tala ia ki he kakai ʻoe fonua ni: he kuo nau fanongo ko koe ko Sihova ʻoku ke ʻi he kakai ni, kuo ke femamataʻaki pe, pea kuo tuʻu hoʻo ʻao ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi he pou ʻoe ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, pea mo e pou ʻoe afi ʻi he pō.
15 Now if thou shall kill this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,
Pea ko eni, kapau te ke tāmateʻi ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻe toki lea ai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kuo nau fanongo ki ho ongoongo, ʻo pehē,
16 Because Jehovah was not able to bring this people into the land which he swore to them, therefore he has slain them in the wilderness.
Koeʻuhi kuo ʻikai faʻa ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai ni ki he fonua naʻa ne fuakava ai kiate kinautolu, ko ia kuo ne tāmateʻi ai ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa.
17 And now, I pray thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as thou have spoken, saying,
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, tuku ke lahi ʻae mālohi ʻo hoku ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola, naʻe pehē,
18 Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
ʻOku kātaki fuoloa ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku lahi ʻene ʻaloʻofa, ʻoku faʻa fakamolemole ʻe ia ʻae angahala mo e fai meʻa kovi, ka ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe ia ʻae halaia: ʻoku fakahoko ki he fānau hono nunuʻa ʻoe hia ʻae mātuʻa ʻo aʻu ki he toʻutangata ʻe tolu mo hono fā.
19 Pardon, I pray thee, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of thy loving kindness, and according as thou have forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
ʻOku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, ke ke fakamolemole ʻae angahala ʻae kakai ni ʻo tatau mo hono lahi ʻo hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, pea hangē ko hoʻo fakamolemole ʻae kakai ni, mei ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu mai ki heni.”
20 And Jehovah said, I have pardoned according to thy word,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Kuo u fakamolemole ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea.
21 but in very deed, as I live, and as all the earth shall be filled with the glory of Jehovah,
Ka e hangē ko e moʻoni ʻa ʻeku moʻui, ʻe pito ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻi he nāunau ʻo Sihova.
22 because all those men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I wrought in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have challenged me these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice,
Koeʻuhi ko e kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe mamata ki hoku nāunau, pea mo ʻeku ngaahi ngāue mana, ʻaia ne u fai ʻi ʻIsipite, pea mo e toafa, kuo nau fakaʻitaʻi au ʻo liunga hongofulu, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fanongo ki hoku leʻo;
23 surely they shall not see the land which I swore to their fathers, neither shall any of them who despised me see it.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai tenau mamata ki he fonua ne u fuakava ai ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻe ʻikai mamata ai ha taha ʻiate kinautolu naʻe fakaʻita kiate au:
24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him will I bring into the land into which he went, and his seed shall possess it.
Ka ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Kelepi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kehe, pea kuo muimui ʻaupito ia kiate au, ko ia te u ʻomi ai ia ki he fonua naʻe ʻalu ia ki ai; pea ʻe maʻu ia ʻe hono hako.
25 Now the Amalekite and the Canaanite dwell in the valley. Tomorrow turn ye, and get you into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.
(Pea ko eni, naʻe nofo ʻi he vahaʻa moʻunga ʻae kau ʻAmaleki mo e kau Kēnani, ) Mou toe foki ʻapongipongi, pea mou ō ki he toafa ʻi he hala ki he Tahi Kulokula.”
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
27 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation that murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they murmur against me.
“ʻE fēfē hono fai fuoloa ʻae kakai kovi ni, mo ʻenau lāunga kiate au? Kuo u fanongo ki he lāunga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, kuo nau lāunga ai kiate au.
28 Say to them, As I live, says Jehovah, surely as ye have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you.
Ke ke tala kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e moʻoni ʻa ʻeku moʻui, pea te u fai kiate kimoutolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou lea ʻi hoku telinga:
29 Your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness. And all who were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me,
ʻE tō homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa ni ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe lau ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻo fakatatau ki homou lau kotoa pē, mei hono taʻu ʻe uofulu tupu, ʻakinautolu ʻaia kuo lāunga kiate au,
30 surely ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I swore that I would make you dwell in it, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai te mou hoko atu ki he fonua, ʻaia ne u fuakava ke tuku kiate kimoutolu ke mou nofo ai, ka ko Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, mo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni.
31 But your little ones, that ye said would be a prey, them I will bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have rejected.
Ka ko hoʻomou fānau, ʻakinautolu naʻa mou pehē ki ai tenau pōpula, te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki ai, pea ʻe ʻilo ʻekinautolu ʻae fonua kuo mou liʻaki.
32 But as for you, your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness.
Ka ko kimoutolu, ʻe tō homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa ni.
33 And your sons shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your whoredoms, until your dead bodies be consumed in the wilderness.
Pea ʻe ʻalu fano pe hoʻomou fānau ʻi he toafa ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo fua hoʻomou feʻauaki, kaeʻoua ke ʻosiʻosi homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa.
34 After the number of the days in which ye spied out the land, even forty days, for every day a year, ye shall bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my alienation.
ʻE fakatatau ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻaia naʻa mou mataki ai ʻae fonua, ʻio, ko e ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, ko e ʻaho taki taha ki he taʻu ʻe taha, ʻio, ko e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu te mou fua hoʻomou angahala, pea te mou ʻilo ai ʻeku fakamamahi,
35 I, Jehovah, have spoken, surely I will do this to all this evil congregation that are gathered together against me. In this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
Kuo u lea ʻaki eni ʻeau ko Sihova, ko e moʻoni te u fai ia ki he kakai kovi ni kotoa pē, kuo tānaki ʻo fakataha ke angatuʻu kiate au: ʻe fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa ni, pea tenau mate ʻi ai.
36 And the men, whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him by bringing up an evil report against the land,
Pea ko e kau tangata, naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kenau ʻalu ʻo vakai ki he fonua, ne nau liliu mai, pea naʻa nau fakalanga lāunga ʻi he kakai kiate ia, ʻi heʻenau ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kovi ʻoe fonua,
37 even those men who brought up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before Jehovah.
ʻIo, ʻae kau tangata naʻe ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kovi ʻoe fonua, naʻa nau mate ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, remained alive of those men who went to spy out the land.
Ka naʻe fakamoʻui ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu naʻe ʻalu ke vakai ki he fonua.
39 And Moses told these words to all the sons of Israel, and the people mourned greatly.
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi lea ni ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe loto mamahi lahi ʻae kakai.
40 And they rose up early in the morning, and got up to the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we are here, and will go up to the place which Jehovah has promised, for we have sinned.
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake pe, pea naʻa nau ō ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga, ʻonau pehē, “Vakai, kuo tau ʻi heni, ka tau ō ki he potu ʻaia kuo talaʻofa ki ai ʻe Sihova: he kuo mau angahala.”
41 And Moses said, Why do ye now transgress the commandment of Jehovah, seeing it shall not prosper?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko e hā eni ʻoku mou talangataʻa ai ki he fekau ʻa Sihova? Ka ʻe ʻikai monūʻia ia.
42 Do not go up, for Jehovah is not among you, that ye be not smitten down before your enemies.
ʻOua naʻa mou ʻalu hake, he ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova; naʻa taaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo homou ngaahi fili.
43 For there the Amalekite and the Canaanite are before you, and ye shall fall by the sword. Because ye have turned back from following Jehovah, therefore Jehovah will not be with you.
He ko e kau ʻAmaleki mo e kau Kēnani ʻoku nau ʻi ai ʻi homou ʻao, pea te mou tō ʻi he heletā: koeʻuhi kuo mou fulituʻa kia Sihova, ko ia ʻe ʻikai ai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.”
44 But they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain, nevertheless the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and Moses, did not depart out of the camp.
Ka naʻa nau talangataʻa pe ʻonau ʻalu ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga: ka ko e puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea mo Mōsese, naʻe ʻikai ʻalu mei he ʻapitanga.
45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites who dwelt in that mountain, and smote them and beat them down, even to Hormah.
Pea naʻe toki hifo mai ʻae kau ʻAmaleki, mo e kau Kēnani, ʻakinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi he moʻunga ko ia, ʻonau taaʻi ʻakinautolu, mo haha ʻakinautolu, ʻo aʻu ki Hoama.
