Numbers 17
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of them a staff, a staff for each father's house, of all their princes according to the houses of their fathers, twelve staves: thou shalt write each one's name upon his staff.
“Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kí o sì gba ọ̀pá méjìlá lọ́wọ́ wọn, ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan lọ́wọ́ olórí ìdílé ẹ̀yà ìran wọn, kọ orúkọ ènìyàn kọ̀ọ̀kan sí ara ọ̀pá rẹ̀.
3 And Aaron's name shalt thou write upon the staff of Levi; for one staff shall be for [each] head of their fathers' houses.
Lórí ọ̀pá Lefi kọ orúkọ Aaroni, nítorí ọ̀pá kọ̀ọ̀kan gbọdọ̀ wà fún olórí ìdílé kọ̀ọ̀kan tí yóò jẹ́ orí fún ẹ̀yà ìran kọ̀ọ̀kan.
4 And thou shalt lay them up in the tent of meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you.
Kó wọn sí àgọ́ ìpàdé níwájú ẹ̀rí níbi tí èmi ti ń pàdé yín.
5 And it shall come to pass, that the man whom I shall choose, his staff shall bud forth; and I will make to cease from before me the murmurings of the children of Israel, that they murmur against you.
Ọ̀pá tí ó bá yí jẹ́ ti ẹni tí èmi bá yàn yóò rúwé, èmi yóò sì dá kíkùn gbogbo ìgbà àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sí yín dúró.”
6 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and all their princes gave him a staff, one staff for each prince according to their fathers' houses, twelve staves, and the staff of Aaron was among their staves.
Nígbà náà Mose bá àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ̀rọ̀, àwọn olórí wọn sì fún un ní ọ̀pá méjìlá, ọ̀pá kan fún olórí kọ̀ọ̀kan ẹ̀yà ìran wọn, ọ̀pá Aaroni sì wà lára àwọn ọ̀pá náà.
7 And Moses laid the staves before Jehovah in the tent of the testimony.
Mose sì fi ọ̀pá wọ̀nyí lélẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa nínú àgọ́ ẹ̀rí.
8 And it came to pass, when on the morrow Moses went into the tent of the testimony, behold, the staff of Aaron for the house of Levi had budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and ripened almonds.
Ó sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ kejì Mose wọ inú àgọ́ ẹ̀rí lọ, ó sì rí ọ̀pá Aaroni, tí ó dúró fún ẹ̀yà Lefi, kì í ṣe wí pé ó hù nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n ó rúwé, ó yọ ìtànná, ó sì so èso almondi.
9 And Moses brought out all the staves from before Jehovah to all the children of Israel, and they looked and took each one his staff.
Nígbà náà ni Mose kó gbogbo àwọn ọ̀pá jáde láti iwájú Olúwa wá fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli. Wọ́n wò wọ́n, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan sì mú ọ̀pá tirẹ̀.
10 And Jehovah said to Moses, Bring Aaron's staff again before the testimony, to be kept as a token for the sons of rebellion, that thou mayest put an end to their murmurings before me, that they may not die.
Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Mú ọ̀pá Aaroni padà wá síwájú ẹ̀rí, láti fi pamọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àmì fún àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀. Èyí ó sì mú òpin bá kíkùn sínú wọn sí mi, kí wọn kí ó má ba à kú.”
11 And Moses did so: as Jehovah had commanded him, so did he.
Mose sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti páláṣẹ fún un.
12 And the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Lo, we expire, we perish, we all perish.
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ fún Mose pé, “Àwa yóò kú! A ti sọnù, gbogbo wa ti sọnù!
13 Every one that comes at all near to the tabernacle of Jehovah shall die: shall we then expire altogether?
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá súnmọ́ tabanaku Olúwa yóò kú. Ṣé gbogbo wa ni yóò kú?”
