Numbers 14
1 Then everybody there cried out loud all night.
Na mwet uh tung fong nufon sac ke sripen nikanla ac fosrnga lalos.
2 All the Israelites went and complained to Moses and Aaron, telling them, “If only we'd died in Egypt, or here in this desert!
Elos torkaskas lainul Moses ac Aaron, ac fahk, “Lukun wona kut funu misa na Egypt, ku finne inge yen mwesis uh!
3 Why is the Lord taking us to this country only to get us killed? Our wives and children will be captured and taken away as slaves! Wouldn't we be better off going back to Egypt?”
Efu ku LEUM GOD Elan uskutla nu in acn sac tuh kut in misa ke mweun, ac mutan kiasr ac tulik natusr uh ac muta in sruoh. Mea, ac tia wo kut in folokla nu Egypt?”
4 They said to one another, “Let's choose a new leader us and go back to Egypt.”
Ouinge elos fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Wona kut in sulela sie mwet kol nu sesr sifacna, ac folokla nu Egypt!”
5 Moses and Aaron fellfacedown on the ground in front of all the assembled Israelites.
Na Moses ac Aaron faksufi ye mutun mwet nukewa.
6 Joshua, son of Nun, and Caleb, son of Jephunneh, were there. They had been part of the group who had gone to spy out the land. They ripped their clothes,
Ac Joshua wen natul Nun, ac Caleb wen natul Jephunneh, luo sin mwet kalngeyuk uh, eltal seya nuknuk laltal ke sripen asor laltal
7 and told the Israelites, “The country we traveled through and explored has very good land.
ac fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Facl se su kut kalngeyuk we ah, acn na wowo se.
8 If the Lord is happy with us, he will take us there and give it to us, a land that's so productive it's like flowing with milk and honey.
LEUM GOD fin insewowo sesr, El ac uskutla nu we ac ase nu sesr facl na mut ac kasrup fohk we sac.
9 Don't rebel and fight against the Lord. You don't need to be afraid of the people living there in the country—we can take them easily! They're defenseless and the Lord is with us. Don't be frightened of them!”
Nik kowos lain LEUM GOD, ac nimet sangeng sin mwet we uh. Ac arulana fisrasr kut in kutangulosla. LEUM GOD El wi kut, ac El kutangla tari god su karinganulos. Ke sripa inge nik kowos sangeng.”
10 In reply all the people shouted out, “Stone them!” But the glory of the Lord suddenly appeared in the Tent of Meeting, right in the middle of the Israelites.
Na u sac nufon nunku elos in tanglaltal nwe ke na eltal misa. Tusruktu in kitin pacl ah na mwet uh liye kalem wolana ma akkalemye sikme lun LEUM GOD oan fin Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.
11 The Lord told Moses, “How long are these people going to reject me? How long are these people going to refuse to trust in me despite all the miracles I have done right in front of them?
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Mwet inge ac pilesreyu nwe ngac? Putaka elos ac srangesr lulalfongiyu, nga ne orala mwenmen puspis inmasrlolos?
12 I'm going to make them sick with a disease and kill them. Then I will make you into a nation that's greater and strong than them.”
Nga fah supwama sie mas upa in onelosla, tusruktu nga fah oru kom in papa tumun sie mutunfacl yohk ac ku lukelos!”
13 But Moses told the Lord, “The Egyptians will find out about it! It was by your power that you led the Israelites out from among them.
Na Moses el fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, “Kom tuh use mwet inge liki acn Egypt ke ku lom. Pacl se mwet Egypt elos ac lohng ke ma kom oru nu sin mwet lom,
14 They will tell the people living in this country all about it. They've already heard that you, Lord, are with us Israelites, that you, Lord, are seen face to face, that your cloud stands guard over them, and that you lead them by a pillar of cloud during day and a pillar of fire at night.
elos ac srumun nu sin mwet su muta in facl se inge. Mwet inge lohng tari lah kom, LEUM GOD, kom wi kut, ac kom sikyak ac liyeyuk kalem ke pacl se pukunyeng lom tuhwi facsr. Elos lohng pac lah kom fahsr meet liki kut in sie sru in pukunyeng ke len, ac ke sie sru in e ke fong.
15 If you kill all these people in one go, the nations who have heard about you will say,
Inge kom fin onela mwet lom nukewa, na mutanfahl su lohng pweng keim, elos fah fahk lah
16 ‘The Lord killed these people in the desert because he wasn't able to take them to the country he promised to give them. He's killed them all in desert!’
kom onela mwet lom in acn mwesis ke sripen kom tia ku in usalosla nu in facl se su kom wuleang mu kom ac sang nu selos.
17 Now, Lord, please demonstrate the extent of your power just as you have said:
Ouinge, LEUM GOD, nga pre ac siyuk tuh kom in akkalemye ku lom nu sesr, ac oru ma kom wulela kac ke kom fahk mu,
18 The Lord is slow to become angry and is full of trustworthy love, forgiving sin and rebellion. However, he will not allow the guilty to go unpunished, bringing the consequences of the parents' sin on their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
‘Nga LEUM GOD, nga tia sa in mulat, ac nga fahkak lungkulang, oaru, ac nunak munas ke ma koluk ac ma sutuu lun mwet uh. Tusruk nga fah tia mulkunla in kai papa ac nina su oru ma koluk, oayapa tulik natulos ac nutin natulos nu ke fwil aktolu ac akakosr.’
19 Please forgive the sin of these people since your trustworthy love is so great, in the same way that you have forgiven them from the time they left Egypt until now.”
Inge, LEUM GOD, fal nu ke lungse lulap lom su tiana ekyek, nga kwafe sum, sisla koluk lun mwet inge, oana ke kom nuna nunak munas nu selos oe ke pacl se elos illa liki acn Egypt me!”
20 “I have forgiven them as you asked,” the Lord replied.
LEUM GOD El topuk, “Nga fah nunak munas nu selos, oana ke kom siyuk.
21 “But even so, as I live and as the whole earth is filled with the Lord's glory,
Tusruktu, in oana ke nga moul, ac ku luk ac wolana luk oasr yen nukewa faclu nufon,
22 not a single one of the those who saw my glory and the miracles I did in Egypt and in the desert—but provoked me and refused to obey me time and time again—
nga wulela mu wangin sie sin mwet inge ac fah moul in wi utyak nu in facl sac. Elos liye tari kalem wolana luk ac mwenmen ma nga tuh oru in facl Egypt ac yen mwesis. Ne ouinge, elos nuna srikeyu na, ac pusla pacl elos tia akosyu.
23 not a single one of them is ever going to see the country I promised to give their forefathers. None of those who rejected me will see it.
Elos ac fah tiana utyak nu in facl se su nga wulela nu sin mwet matu lalos. Wangin sie selos su pilesreyu fah liye acn we.
24 But because my servant Caleb has a totally different spirit and is fully committed to me, I will lead him to the country he visited, and his descendants will own it.
Tusruktu ke sripen nunak lal Caleb, mwet kulansap luk, sie liki na mwet ngia, ac el srakna oru ma lungse luk ke inse pwaye, nga fah usalla nu in facl sac su el tuh wi kalngeyuk we, ac fwilin tulik natul fah eis lalos acn we.
25 Since the Amalekites and Canaanites are living in the valleys, tomorrow you are to turn around and head back into the desert, taking the route towards the Red Sea.”
In pacl inge mwet Amalek ac mwet Canaan elos muta infahlfal lun acn we, ouinge kowos in forla ac som nu yen mwesis ke inkanek nu Meoa Srusra.”
26 The Lord told Moses and Aaron,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,
27 “How much longer are these wicked people going to criticize me? I've heard what they're saying, making complaints against me.
“Mwet koluk inge ac torkaskas lainyu nwe ngac? Fal tari lohngyen torkaskas inge sik.
28 Go and tell them, ‘As I live, declares the Lord, I'll do just what I heard you say you wanted, believe me!
Sang top luk inge nu selos: “Nga fulahk lah in oana ke nga moul, nga fah oru nu suwos oana ke kowos siyuk. Nga LEUM GOD pa kaskas.
29 All of you will die in this desert, everyone who was registered in the census that counted those aged twenty or over, because you made complaints against me.
Kowos fah misa, ac mano misa lowos ac fah afunla yen mwesis uh. Mweyen kowos torkaskas na lainyu, tia sie suwos su yac longoul matwayak fah wi utyak nu in facl sac.
30 Absolutely none of you will enter the country I promised to give you to live in, except for Caleb, son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, son of Nun.
Nga tuh wulela mu nga ac oru tuh kowos in muta we, tuh pa tia sie suwos ac sun, sayal Caleb ac Joshua.
31 However, I will take your children—those you said would be taken away as plunder—into the country you rejected, and they will appreciate it.
Kowos tuh fahk mu tulik nutuwos ac mau mwet sruoh, tusruktu nga ac usalosme nu in facl se su kowos sifacna liskowosla liki, ac facl sac fah ma selos.
32 But you—you are all going to die in this desert.
A funu kowos, kowos fah misa yen mwesis se inge.
33 Your children will wander in the desert for forty years, suffering because of your lack of trust until all your bodies lie buried in the desert.
Tulik nutuwos ac fah forfor yen mwesis yac angngaul, ac keok ke sripen ma koluk lowos, nwe ke mwet safla se ke fwil se inge misa.
34 Just as you explored the country for forty days, so shall your punishment for your sins be forty years, a year for every day, and you will see what happens when I oppose you.
Mwatan ma koluk lowos uh ac oru kowos in keok ke yac angngaul — yac se nu ke kais sie len kowos tuh oru kalngeyuk lowos in acn sac. Kowos ac fah arulana pulakunak luman lain luk nu suwos.
35 I, the Lord, have spoken! Just see if I won't do this to all these wicked Israelites who have got together to oppose me! They will end their lives in the desert—they will die there.’”
Nga fulahk lah nga ac oru ouinge nu sin mwet koluk nukewa su tukeni nu sie lainyu. Kais sie suwos fah misa yen mwesis se inge. Nga LEUM GOD pa kaskas!”
36 The men that Moses had sent to explore the country—those who came back and because they gave a bad report they made all the Israelites complain against the Lord—
Mwet su Moses el tuh supwala in oru kalngeyuk lalos ke facl sac, ke elos foloko elos tuh fahkak kas tia pwaye ke acn sac, pa pwanang mwet Israel nukewa torkaskas lain LEUM GOD.
37 those men who gave the bad report died before the Lord from plague.
Ke sripa se inge, LEUM GOD El sang sie mas upa ac onela mwet kalngeyuk inge.
38 The only ones who lived were Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh of those who went to explore the country.
Joshua ac Caleb mukena moul inmasrlon mwet kalngeyuk singoul luo ah.
39 When Moses told the Israelites what the Lord had said they were very, very sad.
Ke Moses el fahkang nu sin mwet Israel ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel uh, elos tung ac arulana asor.
40 They got up early the next morning planning to go into the hill country. “Yes we really did sin,” they said, “but now we're here and we'll go where the Lord told us.”
Toangna in lotu tok ah elos mukuiyak in utyak ac eisla acn nu fineol uh. Elos fahk, “Inge kut akola in utyak nu fin acn se su LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sesr kac. Pwaye lah kut tuh oru ma koluk.”
41 But Moses objected. “Why are you disobeying the Lord's command? You won't succeed in your plan!
Tusruktu Moses el fahk, “Na efu kowos ku srakna fahsr sayen ma sap lun LEUM GOD? Ma kowos oru inge ac tia ku in wo ouiya!
42 Don't try and go, otherwise you will be killed by your enemies, because the Lord isn't with you.
Nik kowos som. LEUM GOD El tia wi kowos, ac mwet lokoalok lowos ac fah kutangkowosla.
43 The Amalekites and Canaanites living there will attack you, and you will die by the sword. Because you rejected the Lord, he won't help you.”
Ke kowos ac tuyang in lain mwet Amalek ac mwet Canaan uh, kowos ac misa ke mweun. LEUM GOD El ac tia wi kowos, ke sripen kowos tia lungse fahsr tokol.”
44 But they were arrogant and went up into the hill country, even though Moses and the Ark of the Lord's Agreement didn't move from the camp.
Ne ouinge elos kwafeang na in utyak nu fineol uh, finne Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD ac Moses srakna muta in nien aktuktuk uh.
45 The Amalekites and Canaanites who lived there in the hill country came down and attacked the Israelites and defeated them, and chased them all the way to Hormah.
Na mwet Amalek ac mwet Canaan su muta fineol uh elos sroang mweunelos ac kutangulosla, ac ukwalos na nwe ke sun acn Hormah.
