Numbers 14
1 And the whole assembly lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
Rhaengpuei boeih hol uh tih a ol te a huel uh. Te phoeiah pilnam he tekah khoyin ah rhap uh.
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole assembly said to them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or in this wilderness would that we had died!
Israel ca pum he Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah nul uh. Te rhoi taengah rhaengpuei boeih loh, “Egypt kho ah n'duek uh mako, he khosoek ah nim n'duek mai mako.
3 And why is Jehovah bringing us to this land that we may fall by the sword, that our wives and our little ones may become a prey? Is it not better for us to return to Egypt?
cunghang dongah cungku ham he BOEIPA loh balae tih he khohmuen la mamih n'khuen. Mamih yuu ca he maeh la om uh pawn ni. Egypt la mael he mamih ham then ngai pawt nim? a Boeipa loh mamih he hela ingkhueh uh? Egypt ramla koep mael he then ngai mah pawt a? Moses neh Aaron taengah ati nauh.
4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return to Egypt.
Te vaengah hlang loh a manuca taengah, “A lu pakhat n'tuek uh vetih Egypt la m'mael uh mako,” a ti uh.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell upon their faces before the whole congregation of the assembly of the children of Israel.
Te vaengah Moses neh Aaron tah Israel ca rhaengpuei hlangping boeih kah mikhmuh ah a maelhmai te a buenglueng rhoi.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of them that searched out the land, rent their garments.
Tedae khohmuen aka yaam khuikah Nun capa Joshua neh Jephunneh capa Kaleb long tah a himbai te a phen rhoi.
7 And they spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it out, is a very, very good land.
Te phoeiah Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih te a thui rhoi tih, “Te khohmuen ka paan uh tih ka yaam vaengah khohmuen khaw bahoeng, bahoeng then.
8 If Jehovah delight in us, he will bring us into this land, and give it us, a land that flows with milk and honey;
BOEIPA he mamih taengah hmae tih mamih he te khohmuen la m'pawk sak vaengah suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen te mamih taengah m'paek bitni.
9 only rebel not against Jehovah; and fear not the people of the land; for they shall be our food. Their defence is departed from them, and Jehovah is with us: fear them not.
BOEIPA bueng te tloelh uh boeh, nangmih loh khohmuen kah pilnam te rhih uh boeh. Amih kah hlipkhup te amih taeng lamloh nong coeng tih amih te mamih kah buh la om coeng. Tedae BOEIPA he mamih taengah a om dongah amih te rhih uh boeh,” a ti rhoi.
10 And the whole assembly said that they should be stoned with stones. And the glory of Jehovah appeared in the tent of meeting to all the children of Israel.
Te vaengah rhaengpuei pum loh amih rhoi te lungto neh dae ham cai uh. Tedae BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah tingtunnah dap kah Israel ca boeih taengah a phoe pah.
11 And Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people despise me? and how long will they not believe me, for all the signs which I have done among them?
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “He pilnam loh kai he mevaeng hil n'tlaitlaek uh vetih a khui ah miknoek cungkuem ka saii lalah mevaeng hil nim kai he n'tangnah uh pawtve.
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and destroy them, and will make of thee a nation greater and mightier than they.
Amih te duektahaw neh ka ngawn vetih ka haek ni. Tedae nang te namtom tanglue la kang khueh vetih amih lakah na pilnu ngai ni,” a ti nah.
13 And Moses said to Jehovah, Then the Egyptians will hear it; for in thy might thou broughtest up this people from the midst of them;
Tedae Moses loh BOEIPA taengah, “A khui lamloh na thadueng neh he pilnam na khuen te Egypt loh ya saeh.
14 and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land, [who] have heard that thou, Jehovah, art in the midst of this people, that thou, Jehovah, lettest thyself be seen eye to eye, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night;
He khohmuen kah khosa rhoek taengah thui uh saeh. He pilnam lakli ah BOEIPA namah na om te a yaak uh tih BOEIPA namah taengah mik neh mik khaw hmu uh rhoi coeng. Nang kah cingmai khaw amih soah pai. Amih mikhmuh ah khothaih kah cingmai tung neh khoyin ah hmai tung la na caeh pah.
15 if thou now slayest this people as one man, then the nations that have heard thy fame will speak, saying,
He pilnam he hlang pakhat bangla na duek sak koinih nang olthang a yaak vaengah namtom loh a thui bal ni.
16 Because Jehovah was not able to bring this people into the land that he had sworn unto them, he has therefore slain them in the wilderness.
Te vaengah, “Amih ham a toemngam pah khohmuen la BOEIPA loh he pilnam he khuen ham a coeng pawt dongah amih te khosoek ah a ngawn,” a ti uh ni.
17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
Thui ham na ti vanbangla ka Boeipa kah thadueng te pomsang mai laeh saeh.
18 Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in goodness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but by no means clearing [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and fourth [generation].
BOEIPA tah thintoek a ueh tih sitlohnah khaw puh. Thaesainah neh boekoek khaw a phueih pah dae pa rhoek kathaesainah te ca rhoek soah khongthum, khongli duela a cawh tih hmil rhoe hmil pawh.
19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of thy loving-kindness, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
Na sitlohnah dongkah boeilennah neh Egypt lamloh tahae hil pilnam na khuen bangla he pilnam kathaesainah he khodawkngai mai,” a ti nah.
20 And Jehovah said, I have pardoned according to thy word.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Nang ol bangla khodawk ka ngai coeng.
21 But as surely as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of Jehovah!
Kai ka hingnah la ka om dongah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah he diklai pum ah bae.
22 for all those men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice,
Egypt neh khosoek ah ka tueng sak kamah kah thangpomnah neh ka miknoek te hlang boeih loh a hmuh. Tedae kai he voei rha khaw n'noemcai uh tih kai ol he hnatun uh pawh.
23 shall in no wise see the land which I did swear unto their fathers: none of them that despised me shall see it.
A napa rhoek taengah ka toemngam pah khohmuen te hmu uh pawt vetih kai aka tlaitlaek boeih loh te hmu mahpawh.
24 But my servant Caleb, because he hath another spirit in him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he came; and his seed shall possess it.
Ka sal Kaleb tah a khuiah mueihla tloe a om tih kai hnukah hnawn uh. Te dongah anih te a pawk ham koi khohmuen la pahoi ka khuen vetih a tiingan loh te te a pang ni.
25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valley.) To-morrow turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness, on the way to the Red sea.
Kol kah khosa Amalek neh Kanaan te thangvuen ah mael laeh saeh lamtah nangmih ham khosoek kah carhaek tuipuei longpuei te paan uh laeh,” a ti nah.
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te a voek tih,
27 How long [shall I bear] with this evil assembly, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
Boethae he rhaengpuei ham me hil nim kai taengah a nul uh ve? Amih Israel ca rhoek kah kohuetnah loh kai taengah a nul uh khaw ka yaak coeng.
28 Say unto them, As surely as I live, saith Jehovah, if I do not do unto you as ye have spoken in mine ears!
Kai hingnah BOEIPA kah olphong he amih taengah thui pah. Kai hna ah na thui bangla nangmih taengah ka saii van mahpawt nim?
29 In this wilderness shall your carcases fall; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number from twenty years old and upwards, who have murmured against me,
Na hlangmi boeih khuiah capa kum kul lamloh a so hang na soep thil boeih khaw kai taengah na nul vanbangla na rhok te he khosoek ah yalh ni.
30 shall in no wise come into the land, concerning which I have lifted up my hand to make you dwell in it; save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
A khuiah nangmih khosak sak ham ka kut ka phuel coeng dae Jephunneh capa Kaleb neh Nun capa Joshua phoeiah tah te khohmuen la nangmih na kun uh mahpawh.
31 But your little ones, of whom ye said they should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land that ye have despised.
Na ca rhoek khaw maeh la om pawnko na ti uh cakhaw amih te a pawk puei vetih khohmuen na hnawt uh te khaw a ming uh bitni.
32 And as to you, your carcases shall fall in this wilderness.
Tedae nangmih tah namamih rhok te he khosoek ah ni a. yalh eh.
33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.
Na ca rhoek te khosoek ah boiva aka dawn la kum likip om uh vetih na rhok a cing hil khosoek ah nangmih kah pumyoihnah te a phueih uh ni.
34 After the number of the days in which ye have searched out the land, forty days, each day for a year shall ye bear your iniquities forty years, and ye shall know mine estrangement [from you].
Khohnin la hnin likip khuiah khohmuen na yaam uh vaengkah khohnin tarhing ah a kum dongah khaw hnin at te kum khat la om ni. Nangmih kathaesainah te kum sawmli na phueih uh vaengah kai kah noihhainah te na ming uh bitni.
35 I Jehovah have spoken; I will surely do it unto all this evil assembly which have gathered together against me! in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
Kai BOEIPA loh ka thui coeng atah he boethae rhaengpuei boeih taengah ka saii het mahpawt nim. Kai aka tuentah rhoek te he khosoek ah khawk uh tih pahoi duek uh ni,” a ti nah.
36 And the men whom Moses had sent to search out the land, who returned, and made the whole assembly to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report upon the land,
Te dongah Moses loh khohmuen yaam ham a tueih hlang a mael uh vaengah tah rhaengpuei boeih te a taengah rhaeh la rhaeh uh tih khohmuen kawng te theetnah la a khuen.
37 even those men who had brought up an evil report upon the land, died by a plague before Jehovah.
Khohmuen kah theetnah aka khuen hlang rhoek tah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah lucik dongah a thae la duek uh.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, lived still of the men that had gone to search out the land.
Tedae khohmuen yaam ham aka cet hlang rhoek khui lamloh Nun capa Joshua neh Jephunneh capa Kaleb tah hing.
39 And Moses told all these sayings to all the children of Israel; then the people mourned greatly.
Moses loh he ol he Israel ca boeih taengah a thui vaengah pilnam bung bung nguekcoi uh.
40 And they rose up early in the morning, and went up to the hill-top, saying, Here are we, and we will go up to the place of which Jehovah has spoken; for we have sinned.
Mincang ah thoo uh tih tlang som la luei uh. “Amah dae la he, n'tholh uh dongah BOEIPA kah a thui hmuen la cet uh pawn sih,” a ti uh.
41 And Moses said, Why now do ye transgress the commandment of Jehovah? but it shall not prosper!
Te vaengah Moses loh, “Balae tih BOEIPA olka te na poe uh, te thaihtak he mahpawh.
42 Go not up, for Jehovah is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies;
Cet uh boeh, nangmih khui ah BOEIPA a om moenih. Na thunkha rhoek mikhmuh ah na yawk uh mahpawt nim?
43 for the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword; for as ye have turned away from Jehovah, Jehovah will not be with you.
Nangmih mikhmuh ah Amalek neh Kanaan om lah ko. BOEIPA hnuk lamloh na mael uh dongah cunghang neh na cungku uh ni. Nangmih taengah BOEIPA om mahpawh,” a ti nah.
44 Yet they presumed to go up to the hill-top; but the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and Moses, did not depart from the midst of the camp.
Te vaengah tlang som la luei ham calak uh dae BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng neh Moses tah rhaehhmuen khui lamloh nong pawh.
45 And the Amalekites and the Canaanites who dwelt on that hill, came down and smote them, and cut them to pieces, as far as Hormah.
Tlang kah khosa Amalek neh Kanaan te ha suntla vaengah tah Amih te a ngawn uh tih Hormah duela amih te a phop uh.
