Numbers 16
1 And Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, made bold, and [with him] Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, the sons of Reuben;
Na rĩrĩ, Kora mũrũ wa Iziharu, mũrũ wa Kohathu, ũrĩa warĩ mũrũ wa Lawi, marĩ na andũ amwe a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni nĩo Dathani na Abiramu, ariũ a Eliabu, na Oni mũrũ wa Pelethu, magĩtuĩka a kũngʼathia.
2 and they rose up against Moses, with two hundred and fifty men of the children of Israel, princes of the assembly, summoned to the council, men of renown;
Nao magĩũkĩrĩra Musa. Hamwe nao haarĩ arũme a Isiraeli 250, atongoria mooĩkaine a kĩrĩndĩ kĩu arĩa maathuurĩtwo marĩ a kĩama.
3 and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, It is enough; for all the assembly, all of them are holy, and Jehovah is among them; and why do ye lift up yourselves above the congregation of Jehovah?
Nao magĩũka marĩ gĩkundi makararie Musa na Harũni, makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩmwĩtũgĩrĩtie mũno! Kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩ gĩothe nĩ gĩtheru, mũndũ o mũndũ, nake Jehova arĩ hamwe nao. Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte mwĩtũũgĩrie igũrũ rĩa kĩũngano gĩkĩ kĩa Jehova?”
4 When Moses heard this, he fell on his face.
Rĩrĩa Musa aiguire ũguo-rĩ, akĩgũa, agĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ.
5 And he spoke to Korah and to all his band, saying, Even to-morrow will Jehovah make known who is his, and who is holy; and he will cause him to come near to him; and him whom he has chosen, him will he cause to come near to him.
Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩĩra Kora na arũmĩrĩri ake othe atĩrĩ: “Rũciinĩ, Jehova nĩakonania nũũ wake na nũũ mũtheru, na nĩakareka mũndũ ũcio amũkuhĩrĩrie. Mũndũ ũrĩa agaathuura, ũcio nĩwe akaareka amũkuhĩrĩrie.
6 This do: take you censers, Korah, and all his band,
Wee Kora na arũmĩrĩri aku othe, ũũ nĩguo mũgeeka: mũkoya ngĩo cia gũcinĩra ũbumba,
7 and put fire therein, and lay incense thereon before Jehovah to-morrow; and it shall be that the man whom Jehovah doth choose, he shall be holy. It is enough, ye sons of Levi!
na rũciũ mũciĩkĩre mwaki na ũbumba mũrĩ mbere ya Jehova. Mũndũ ũrĩa Jehova agaathuura-rĩ, ũcio agaatuĩka nĩwe mũtheru. Inyuĩ Alawii nĩmwĩtũgĩrĩtie mũno!”
8 And Moses said to Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi!
Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra Kora atĩrĩ, “Ta thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ Alawii!
9 Is it too little for you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the assembly of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the work of the tabernacle of Jehovah, and to stand before the assembly to minister to them?
Anga mũtiganĩire nĩ Ngai wa Isiraeli kũmwamũrania na kĩrĩndĩ kĩrĩa kĩngĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli, akamũrehe hakuhĩ nake nĩgeetha mũrutage wĩra hema-inĩ ĩrĩa nyamũre ya Jehova, na mũrũgamage mbere ya kĩrĩndĩ mũgĩtungatagĩre?
10 — that he has brought thee near, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee; and seek ye now the priesthood also?
Inyuĩ hamwe na Alawii othe a thiritũ yanyu nĩamũrehete hakuhĩ nake, no rĩu mũrageria kuoya wĩra wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai o naguo.
11 For which cause thou and all thy band are banded together against Jehovah; and Aaron, who is he that ye murmur against him?
Wee na arũmĩrĩri aku othe mũnganĩte hamwe mũũkĩrĩre Jehova. Harũni nũũ atĩ nĩguo mũnugune nĩ ũndũ wake?”
12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; but they said, We will not come up!
Musa agĩcooka agĩĩta Dathani na Abiramu, ariũ a Eliabu. No-o makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũtigũũka!
13 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, that thou must make thyself altogether a ruler over us?
Anga ti kũiganu atĩ nĩwatũrutire bũrũri warĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ ũũke ũtũũragĩre werũ-inĩ ũyũ? Rĩu ningĩ ũrenda gũtwatha?
14 Moreover, thou hast not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up!
Ningĩ-rĩ, ndũrĩ ũratũkinyia bũrũri ũrĩ na bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ, kana ũgatũhe igai rĩa ithaka na mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ. Nĩ ũgũkũũra andũ aya maitho ũmaheenie? Aca, tũtigũũka!”
15 Then Moses was very wroth, and said to Jehovah, Have no regard to their oblation: not one ass have I taken from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
Nake Musa akĩrakara mũno, akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Ndũgetĩkĩre maruta mao. Niĩ ndioete o na ndigiri kuuma kũrĩ o, o na ndihĩtĩirie mũndũ wao o na ũmwe.”
16 And Moses said to Korah, Be thou and all thy band before Jehovah, thou, and they, and Aaron, to-morrow.
Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra Kora atĩrĩ, “Wee na arũmĩrĩri aku othe mũgooka mbere ya Jehova rũciũ, wee, nao, na Harũni.
17 And take each his censer, and put incense thereon, and present before Jehovah every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; and thou, and Aaron, each his censer.
O mũndũ nĩakoya rũgĩo rwake na arwĩkĩre ũbumba, ngĩo ciothe nĩ 250, na mũcirehe mbere ya Jehova. Wee, na Harũni, o na inyuĩ mũrehe ngĩo cianyu.”
18 And they took each his censer, and put fire on them, and laid incense thereon, and stood before the entrance to the tent of meeting, as well as Moses and Aaron.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o mũndũ akĩoya rũgĩo rwake, akĩrwĩkĩra mwaki na ũbumba, na makĩrũgamania mbere ya Musa na Harũni itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
19 And Korah gathered the whole assembly against them to the entrance of the tent of meeting. And the glory of Jehovah appeared to all the assembly.
Rĩrĩa Kora aarĩkirie gũcookereria arũmĩrĩri ake othe nĩguo makararie Musa na Harũni marũngiĩ itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo-rĩ, riiri wa Jehova ũkiumĩrĩra kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe.
20 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,
21 Separate yourselves from the midst of this assembly, and I will consume them in a moment.
“Mwĩyamũraniei na kĩũngano gĩkĩ nĩguo ndĩkĩniine o ro rĩmwe.”
22 And they fell on their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh! shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with the whole assembly?
No Musa na Harũni makĩĩgũithia magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ makĩanĩrĩra makiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Ngai, Ngai wa Maroho ma andũ othe, kaĩ ũngĩrakarĩra kĩũngano gĩkĩ gĩothe hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arĩ o mũndũ ũmwe wĩhĩtie?”
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
24 Speak unto the assembly, saying, Get you up from about the habitation of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
“Ĩra kĩũngano gĩothe atĩrĩ, ‘Eherai kuuma hema-inĩ cia Kora na Dathani na Abiramu.’”
25 And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
Musa agĩũkĩra, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Dathani na Abiramu, nao athuuri a Isiraeli makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
26 And he spoke to the assembly, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye perish in all their sins.
Nake agĩkaania kĩũngano kĩu, agĩkĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ehererai hema cia andũ aya aaganu! Mũtikahutie kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩao, nĩguo mũtikaniinwo nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao mothe.”
27 And they got up from the habitation of Koran, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. And Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the entrance of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ makĩeherera hema icio cia Kora na Dathani na Abiramu. Dathani na Abiramu nĩ moimĩte makarũgama na atumia ao, na ciana cia ngenge itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ciao.
28 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that Jehovah has sent me to do all these deeds, for they are not out of my own heart:
Ningĩ Musa akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũgũtũma mũmenye atĩ Jehova nĩwe ũndũmĩte njĩke maũndũ maya mothe, na atĩ rĩtiarĩ ithugunda rĩakwa:
29 if these men die as all men die, and are visited with the visitation of all men, Jehovah has not sent me;
Andũ aya mangĩkua gĩkuũ kĩa ndũire-rĩ, o na kana mone maũndũ o ta marĩa makoraga andũ othe-rĩ, nĩmũkũmenya atĩ ti Jehova ũndũmĩte.
30 but if Jehovah make a new thing, and the ground open its mouth, and swallow them up, and all that they have, and they go down alive into Sheol, then ye shall know that these men have despised Jehovah. (Sheol h7585)
No Jehova angĩrehe ũndũ ũngĩ mwerũ biũ, nayo thĩ yathamie kanua kayo ĩmamerie hamwe na indo ciao ciothe, na mathiĩ mbĩrĩra-inĩ marĩ muoyo, nĩmũkamenya atĩ andũ aya nĩ manyararĩte Jehova.” (Sheol h7585)
31 And it came to pass when he had ended speaking all these words, that the ground clave apart that was under them.
Na rĩrĩ, Musa aarĩkia kuuga ũguo wothe, thĩ ĩgĩatũka hau maarĩ.
32 And the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men that belonged to Korah, and all their property.
Nayo thĩ ĩgĩathamia kanua kayo ĩkĩmameria, hamwe na andũ ao na arũmĩrĩri othe a Kora, na indo ciao ciothe.
33 And they went down, they and all that they had, alive into Sheol, and the earth covered them; and they perished from among the congregation. (Sheol h7585)
Nao magĩikũrũka mbĩrĩra marĩ muoyo hamwe na indo ciao ciothe; nayo thĩ ĩkĩmahumbĩra, magĩkua, magĩthengio kĩrĩndĩ-inĩ kĩu. (Sheol h7585)
34 And all Israel that were round about them fled at their cry; for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up!
Nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩro kĩao, andũ othe a Isiraeli arĩa maamarigiicĩirie makĩũra, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “O na ithuĩ thĩ nĩĩgũtũmeria!”
35 And there came out a fire from Jehovah, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that had presented incense.
Naguo mwaki ũkiuma kũrĩ Jehova ũgĩcina andũ acio 250 arĩa maarehete ũbumba.
36 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
37 Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning; and scatter the fire afar; for they are hallowed,
“Ĩra Eleazaru mũrũ wa Harũni, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, oe ngĩo icio cia gũcinĩrwo ũbumba, acieherie hau irahĩĩra, na ahurunje makara macio handũ haraaya, nĩ ũndũ ngĩo icio nĩ nyamũre,
38 the censers of these sinners who have forfeited their life; and they shall make them into broad plates for the covering of the altar; for they presented them before Jehovah, therefore they are hallowed; and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.
ngĩo icio cia andũ acio makuĩte nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao. Ngĩo icio nĩiturwo ituĩke mabati ma kũhumbĩra kĩgongona, nĩ ũndũ nĩciarehetwo mbere ya Jehova, na igatuĩka nyamũre. Nacio nĩ ituĩke kĩmenyithia harĩ andũ a Isiraeli.”
39 And Eleazar the priest took the copper censers, which they that were burnt had presented; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akĩoya ngĩo icio cia gĩcango ciarehetwo nĩ andũ acio maacinĩtwo, nake agĩciturithia ituĩke cia kũhumbĩra kĩgongona,
40 as a memorial to the children of Israel, that no stranger who is not of the seed of Aaron come near to burn incense before Jehovah, that he be not as Korah, and as his band, — as Jehovah had said to him through Moses.
agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩrĩire Musa. Ũndũ ũyũ warĩ wa kũririkania andũ a Isiraeli atĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ, tiga wa rũciaro rwa Harũni, wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũũka gũcina ũbumba mbere ya Jehova, kana atuĩke ta Kora na arũmĩrĩri ake.
41 And the whole assembly of the children of Israel murmured on the morrow against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of Jehovah.
Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli gĩgĩtetia Musa na Harũni, gĩkĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩ mũũragĩte andũ a Jehova.”
42 And it came to pass, when the assembly was gathered together against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tent of meeting, and behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of Jehovah appeared.
Na rĩrĩa kĩũngano kĩu gĩecookanĩrĩirie gĩũkĩrĩre Musa na Harũni, o na gĩkĩerekera na kũrĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo yarĩ-rĩ, o rĩmwe itu rĩkĩhumbĩra hema ĩyo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩonekana.
43 And Moses and Aaron went before the tent of meeting.
Nao Musa na Harũni magĩthiĩ hau mbere ya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo,
44 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
45 Get you up from the midst of this assembly, and I will consume them in a moment. And they fell on their faces.
“Ehererai mume kĩũngano-inĩ gĩkĩ nĩguo ndĩkĩniine o ro rĩmwe.” No-o makĩĩgũithia thĩ, na magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ.
46 And Moses said to Aaron, Take the censer, and put fire thereon from off the altar, and lay on incense, and carry it quickly to the assembly, and make atonement for them; for there is wrath gone out from Jehovah: the plague is begun.
Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, “Oya rũgĩo rwaku ũrwĩkĩre ũbumba hamwe na mwaki wa kuuma kĩgongona-inĩ, na ũthiĩ narua kĩũngano-inĩ kĩu ũkĩhoroherie. Mangʼũrĩ moimĩte kũrĩ Jehova; mũthiro nĩwambĩrĩirie kũmaniina.”
47 And Aaron took as Moses had said, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and behold, the plague had begun among the people; and he put on incense, and made atonement for the people.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Harũni agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Musa aamwĩrire, agĩtengʼera agĩtoonya thĩinĩ wa kĩũngano kĩu. Mũthiro nĩwarĩĩkĩtie kwambĩrĩria thĩinĩ wa andũ, no Harũni akĩruta ũbumba akĩmahoroheria.
48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
Akĩrũgama gatagatĩ ka andũ arĩa maarĩ muoyo na arĩa maakuĩte, naguo mũthiro ũgĩthira.
49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand seven hundred, besides them that had died because of the matter of Korah.
No andũ 14,700 magĩkua nĩ ũndũ wa mũthiro ũcio, kuonganĩrĩria na andũ arĩa maakuĩte nĩ ũndũ wa Kora.
50 And Aaron returned to Moses to the entrance of the tent of meeting; and the plague was stayed.
Thuutha ũcio Harũni agĩcooka kũrĩ Musa itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, tondũ mũthiro ũcio nĩwathirĩte.
