Numbers 11
1 It wasn't long before the people started to complain about how much they were suffering. When the Lord heard what they were saying, he became angry. Fire from the Lord burned them, destroying some on the edge of the camp.
Pilnam te BOEIPA hna ah a thae la kohuet uh tih BOEIPA loh a yaak vaengah a thintoek te sai. Te dongah BOEIPA hmai loh amih taengah a dom tih rhaehhmuen a bawtnah te a hlawp.
2 The people cried to Moses for help. He prayed to the Lord and the fire subsided.
Te vaengah pilnam te Moses taengah pang tih Moses te BOEIPA taengah a thangthui daengah hmai khaw duek.
3 So that place was named Taberah, because the fire from the Lord burned them.
BOEIPA kah hmai loh amih te a dom dongah te kah hmuen ming te Taberah la a khue.
4 A group of troublemakers among them had such intense food cravings they affected the Israelites who started crying again, asking “Who's going to get us some meat to eat?
Amih khui ah aka boihlum kah hoehhamnah te a ngaidam uh. Te vaengah Israel ca rhoek khaw mael uh tih a rhah neh, “U long nim mamih maeh n'cah ve?
5 We think back to all the fish we ate in Egypt that didn't cost us anything, as well as the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic.
Egypt ah nga n'caak te n'ngai uh coeng. Yilpuet yiltang neh anthing khaw, rhasawn ling neh rhasawn bok tah a hoeihae mai la.
6 We're fading away here! The only thing we ever see is this manna!”
Tedae mamih kah hinglu tah rhae coeng tih mamih mikhmuh kah manna pawt atah a cungkuem he om voel pawh.
7 Manna looked like coriander seeds, light in color like gum resin.
Manna khaw mah sungsin muu bangla, a mik khaw thingpi mik bangla om.
8 The people would go out and collect it, grind it up in a mill or crush it in a mortar. Then they would boil it in a pot and make it into flatbread. It tasted like pastries made with the best olive oil.
Pilnam loh van tih a yoep uh. Kuelhsum dongah a kuelh uh, sumngol dongah a daeng uh, am dongah a thong uh. Te te buh la a khueh uh tih a tuihlim khaw, situi hlantui kah a tuihlim bangla om.
9 When the dew came down on the camp at night the manna would come down with it.
Rhaehhmuen ah buemtui a bo hatah khoyin ah te nen te manna tla,” a ti uh.
10 Moses heard all the families crying at the entrance to their tents. The Lord became very angry, and Moses was also upset.
Pilnam loh a cako neh, a dap thohka ah hlang a rhah te Moses loh a yaak. Te dongah BOEIPA kah thintoek te sai khungdaeng tih Moses mikhmuh ah thae.
11 He asked the Lord, “Why have you made things so tough for me, your servant? Why are you so unhappy with me that you have placed on me the heavy responsibility for all these people?
Te vaengah Moses loh BOEIPA te, “Balae tih na sal soah thae na huet? Balae tih na mik dongah mikdaithen khaw ka hmuh pawh? He pilnam pum kah hnorhih he kamah soah tloeng ham mai he.
12 Are they my children? Did I give birth to them, so you could tell me, ‘Hold them close to your chest like a nurse carrying a baby’ and take them to the land you promised to give to their forefathers?
Kai loh pilnam pum he ka yom tih kai loh ka sak nim? Kai taengah tah, ‘Cahni aka poeh loh a napa ham na toemngam pah khohmuen la a khuen bangla pilnam he na rhang dongah poem,’ na ti.
13 Where am I supposed to get meat for all of them? They keep on complaining to me, ‘Get us some meat to eat!’
He pilnam pum taengah paek ham maeh te kai taengah me lamkah nim a om eh? Kai taengah rhap uh tih, ‘Kaimih he maeh m'pae lamtah ka ca uh eh,’ a ti uh.
14 I can't go on carrying all these people by myself—it's just too much.
He pilnam pum phueih ham tah kai bueng neh ka coeng moenih, kai ham khaw rhih aih.
15 If this is the way you're going to treat me, then please just kill me now so I don't have to face how depressed I've become. Please grant me this one request.”
Kai he he tla nan saii oeh atah kamah he nan ngawn khaw nan ngawn laeh mako. Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka dang atah ka yoethae he ka hmu boel eh,” a ti nah.
16 The Lord told Moses, “Bring before me seventy Israelite elders who you know are repected as leaders by the people Take them to the Tent of Meeting. They will stand there with you.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Israel kah a hamca lamloh pilnam kah a hamca neh rhoiboei la na ming te hlang sawmrhih ah kai taengla han coi. Amih te tingtunnah dap la khuen lamtah namah taengah pahoi pai uh saeh.
17 I will come down and talk with you there. I will take some of the Spirit you have and give it to them. They will take some of the responsibility for the people so you won't have to bear it alone.
Ka suntla vetih nang te pahoi kam voek bitni. Te vaengah nang dongkah Mueihla te ka pet vetih amih soah ka khueh ni. Pilnam kah hnorhih te nang n'yingyawn puei daengah ni nang namah bueng ham na phueih pawt eh.”
18 Tell the people: Purify yourselves, for tomorrow you'll have meat to eat, because you were complaining and the Lord heard you saying, ‘Who's going to get us some meat to eat? We were better off in Egypt!’ So the Lord is going to provide you with meat to eat.
“Pilnam te, ‘Thangvuen kah ham ciim uh laeh. Maeh caak ham mai te BOEIPA hna ah na rhap uh tih, “U long nim mamih he maeh n'cah ve, Egypt ah ni mamih ham a hoeikhang palueng,” na ti dongah BOEIPA loh nangmih te maeh m'paek vetih na caak uh bitni.
19 You're going to eat it, not for just a day or two, and not for five or ten or twenty days.
Hnin at bueng na ca mahpawh, hnin nit mai pawt tih hnin nga mai moenih. Hnin rha bal mai pawt tih khohnin kul bueng moenih.
20 You're going to eat it for a whole month until it makes you vomit and it comes out through your nostrils, because you have rejected the Lord who is right here with you, complaining to him by saying, ‘Why on earth did we ever leave Egypt?’”
Hla bal hnin bal na hnarhong lamloh a coe vaengah nangmih ham kona-awk la om bitni. Na khui ah BOEIPA na hnawt uh tih na rhap uh. A mikhmuh ah, “Balae tih Egypt lamloh n'caeh uh he,” na ti uh,’ ti nah,” a ti.
21 But Moses replied, “Here I am with 600,000 people and you're telling me, ‘I'm going to give them meat and they'll eat it for a month’?
Tedae Moses loh, “Pilnam kah rhalkap he thawng ya rhuk lo tih a khui ah kai ka om ngawn. Namah long tah, ‘Amih te maeh ka paek vetih khohnin bal hla bal a cak uh bitni,’ na ti.
22 Even if all our flocks and herds were slaughtered, would that be enough for them? Even if all the fish in the sea were caught, would that be enough for them?”
Amih ham boiva neh saelhung ngawn cakhaw amih te cung venim? Tuitunli kah nga boeih te amih ham kol pah cakhaw amih te cung venim?” a ti nah.
23 “Doesn't the Lord have the power to do that?” the Lord responded. “Now you're going to find out whether what I've said will happen or not!”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “BOEIPA he a kut ngun a? Kai ol he nang taengah a thoeng khaw, a thoeng pawt khaw na hmuh pawn ni,” a ti nah.
24 Moses went and shared with the people what the Lord said. He summoned seventy elders of the people and had them stand around the tent.
Te phoeiah Moses te cet tih pilnam taengah BOEIPA ol a thui. Te phoeiah pilnam kah a hamca khui lamloh hlang sawmrhih te a coi tih amih te dap kaepvai ah a pai sak.
25 Then the Lord came down and talked to him. The Lord took some of the Spirit Moses had and gave it to them. They prophesied, but this didn't ever happen again.
Te vaengah BOEIPA te cingmai khuiah ha suntla tih anih te a voek. Te phoeiah anih dongkah Mueihla te a pet tih a ham rhoek hlang sawmrhih soah a paek. Amih soah Mueihla a om van neh tonghma uh dae khoep uh hae pawh.
26 However, two men named Eldad and Medad had stayed behind in the camp. The Spirit came on them too. (They had been put on the list of the seventy elders, but they hadn't gone to the tent. But they prophesied where they were in the camp anyway.)
Te vaengah hlang panit tah rhaehhmuen ah uelh rhoi. Pakhat ming tah Eldad tih pabae te a ming Medad ni. Amih rhoi soah mueihla om tih amih rhoi khaw thum rhoi. Tedae dap la mop rhoi pawt tih rhaehhmuen ah tonghma rhoi.
27 A young lad ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
Te dongah camoe pakhat te yong tih Moses taengah a puen pah. Te vaengah, “Eldad neh Medad tah rhaehhmuen ah tonghma rhoi,” a ti nah.
28 Joshua, son of Nun, who had been Moses' assistant since he was young, reacted, saying, “Moses, my lord, you have to stop them!”
Te dongah Moses loh a cacawn lamkah a tueihyoeih Nun capa Joshua loh a doo tih, “Ka boeipa Moses aw amih te paa sak,” a ti nah.
29 “Are you jealous for my reputation?” Moses replied. “I wish that every one of the Lord's people were prophets and that the Lord would give his Spirit to all of them!”
Tedae Moses loh anih te, “Kai ham na thatlai a? BOEIPA kah pilnam pum he tonghma la a khueh mai khaming. Amih rhoi soah BOEIPA loh a mueihla a paek maco,” a ti nah.
30 Then Moses went back to the camp with the elders of Israel.
Te phoeiah Moses te Israel a ham rhoek neh a rhaehhmuen la khoem uh.
31 The Lord sent a wind that blew quail in from the sea and deposited them near the camp. They covered the ground to a depth of about two cubits and extended for a day's journey in every direction from the camp.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA taeng lamloh khohli a tueih tih tuipuei lamkah tanghuem a khuen pah. Te vaengah rhaehhmuen la hnin at longcaeh, hnin at longcaeh hil a khueh pah. Rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah khaw diklai hman ah dong nit hil ngang.
32 All through that day and night, and all through the next day, the people went on collecting the quail. Everyone collected at least ten homers, and they spread them out to dry all around the camp.
Pilnam te thoo tih khothaih puet, khoyin puet, a vuen hnin at puet tanghuem te a kol uh. Homer parha a baeko hil khaw a kol uh tih rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah a yaal la a yaal uh.
33 But while the people were still biting into the meat, before they even chewed it down, the Lord showed his burning anger against them, killing some of them with a severe disease.
Maeh te a no laklo ah a ai hlan vaengah BOEIPA kah thintoek te pilnam taengah sai tih BOEIPA loh pilnam te hmasoe puei neh muep a ngawn.
34 They named that place Kibroth-hattaavah, because that was where they buried the people who had these intense food cravings.
Te vaengah maeh hue pilnam te pahoi a up uh dongah te hmuen ming khaw Kiborthhattaavah la a khue.
35 Then they moved on from Kibroth-hattaavah to Hazeroth, where they stayed for some time.
Pilnam te Kiborthhattaavah lamloh Hazeroth la puen uh tih Hazeroth ah om uh.
