< Numbers 14 >

1 Then all ye Congregation lifted vp their voice, and cryed: and the people wept that night,
Pea naʻe hiki hake ʻae leʻo ʻoe kakai kotoa pē, ʻo tangi; pea naʻe tangi ʻae kakai ʻi he pō ko ia.
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron: and the whole assemblie said vnto them, Would God we had died in the land of Egypt, or in this wildernesse: would God we were dead.
Pea naʻe lāunga ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese pea mo ʻElone: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē kiate kinaua, “ʻAmusiaange ʻekimautolu ne mau mate ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite! Pea ʻamusiaange ʻekimautolu naʻa mau mate ʻi he toafa ni!
3 Wherefore nowe hath the Lord brought vs into this lande to fall vpon the sworde? our wiues, and our children shall be a pray: were it not better for vs to returne into Egypt?
Pea ko e hā kuo ʻomi ai ʻe Sihova ʻakimautolu ki he fonua ni, ke mau tō ʻi he heletā, kae tuku homau uaifi mo ʻemau fānau ke pōpula? ʻIkai ʻe lelei hake ʻemau toe foki ki ʻIsipite?”
4 And they said one to another, Let vs make a Captaine and returne into Egypt.
Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki, ʻo pehē, “Ke tau fakanofo ha ʻeiki, pea tau foki ki ʻIsipite.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assemblie of the Congregation of the children of Israel.
Pea naʻe tō foʻohifo ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ki hona mata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.”
6 And Ioshua the sonne of Nun, and Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh two of them that searched the lande, rent their clothes,
Pea ko Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu naʻe vakai ki he fonua, pea naʻa na hae hona kofu:
7 And spake vnto all the assemblie of the childre of Israel, saying, The land which we walked through to search it, is a very good lande.
Pea naʻa na lea ki he fakataha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko e fonua naʻa mau ʻalu ke vakai ki ai, ko e fungani fonua lelei.
8 If the Lord loue vs, he will bring vs into this land, and giue it vs, which is a land that floweth with milke and honie.
Kapau ʻe fiemālie ʻa Sihova ʻiate kitautolu, pea te ne ʻave ʻakitautolu ki he fonua ko ia, ʻo foaki ia kiate kitautolu; ko e fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi.
9 But rebell not ye against the Lord, neither feare ye the people of the land: for they are but bread for vs: their shielde is departed from the, and the Lord is with vs, feare them not.
Ke ʻoua pe naʻa mou angatuʻu kia Sihova, pea ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē ki he kakai ʻoe fonua; he ko e meʻakai maʻatautolu ʻakinautolu: kuo mole honau mālohi ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻa Sihova: ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē kiate kinautolu.”
10 And all the multitude saide, Stone them with stones: but the glory of the Lord appeared in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, before all the children of Israel.
Ka naʻe tala ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ke lisingi ʻakinaua ʻaki ʻae maka. Pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli.
11 And the Lord said vnto Moses, How long will this people prouoke me, and howe long will it be, yer they beleeue me, for al the signes which I haue shewed among them?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe fakaʻita mai ʻae kakai ni kiate au? ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo e teʻeki tenau tui kiate au, ʻi he ngaahi fakaʻilonga ne u fakahā kiate kinautolu?
12 I will smite them with the pestilence and destroy them, and will make thee a greater nation and mightier then they.
Te u taaʻi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea te u liʻaki ʻakinautolu, pea te u ngaohi koe ko e puleʻanga lahi mo mālohi ʻiate kinautolu.”
13 But Moses saide vnto the Lord, When the Egyptians shall heare it, (for thou broughtest this people by thy power from among them)
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova, “ʻE toki fanongo ki ai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, (he naʻa ke ʻomi ʻi ho mālohi ʻae kakai ni meiate kinautolu; )
14 Then they shall say to the inhabitants of this land, (for they haue heard that thou, Lord, art among this people, and that thou, Lord, art seene face to face, and that thy cloude standeth ouer them, and that thou goest before them by day time in a pillar of a cloude, and in a pillar of fire by night)
Pea tenau tala ia ki he kakai ʻoe fonua ni: he kuo nau fanongo ko koe ko Sihova ʻoku ke ʻi he kakai ni, kuo ke femamataʻaki pe, pea kuo tuʻu hoʻo ʻao ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi he pou ʻoe ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, pea mo e pou ʻoe afi ʻi he pō.
15 That thou wilt kill this people as one man: so the heathen which haue heard the fame of thee, shall thus say,
Pea ko eni, kapau te ke tāmateʻi ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻe toki lea ai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kuo nau fanongo ki ho ongoongo, ʻo pehē,
16 Because the Lord was not able to bring this people into the lande, which he sware vnto them, therefore hath he slaine them in the wildernesse.
Koeʻuhi kuo ʻikai faʻa ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai ni ki he fonua naʻa ne fuakava ai kiate kinautolu, ko ia kuo ne tāmateʻi ai ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa.
17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, tuku ke lahi ʻae mālohi ʻo hoku ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola, naʻe pehē,
18 The Lord is slowe to anger, and of great mercie, and forgiuing iniquitie, and sinne, but not making the wicked innocent, and visiting the wickednes of the fathers vpon the children, in the thirde and fourth generation:
‌ʻOku kātaki fuoloa ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku lahi ʻene ʻaloʻofa, ʻoku faʻa fakamolemole ʻe ia ʻae angahala mo e fai meʻa kovi, ka ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe ia ʻae halaia: ʻoku fakahoko ki he fānau hono nunuʻa ʻoe hia ʻae mātuʻa ʻo aʻu ki he toʻutangata ʻe tolu mo hono fā.
19 Be mercifull, I beseech thee, vnto the iniquitie of this people, according to thy great mercie, and as thou hast forgiuen this people from Egypt, euen vntill nowe.
‌ʻOku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, ke ke fakamolemole ʻae angahala ʻae kakai ni ʻo tatau mo hono lahi ʻo hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, pea hangē ko hoʻo fakamolemole ʻae kakai ni, mei ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu mai ki heni.”
20 And the Lord said, I haue forgiuen it, according to thy request.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Kuo u fakamolemole ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea.
21 Notwithstanding, as I liue, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.
Ka e hangē ko e moʻoni ʻa ʻeku moʻui, ʻe pito ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻi he nāunau ʻo Sihova.
22 For all those men which haue seene my glory, and my miracles which I did in Egypt, and in the wildernes, and haue tempted me this ten times, and haue not obeyed my voyce,
Koeʻuhi ko e kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe mamata ki hoku nāunau, pea mo ʻeku ngaahi ngāue mana, ʻaia ne u fai ʻi ʻIsipite, pea mo e toafa, kuo nau fakaʻitaʻi au ʻo liunga hongofulu, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fanongo ki hoku leʻo;
23 Certainely they shall not see the lande, whereof I sware vnto their fathers: neither shall any that prouoke me, see it.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai tenau mamata ki he fonua ne u fuakava ai ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻe ʻikai mamata ai ha taha ʻiate kinautolu naʻe fakaʻita kiate au:
24 But my seruant Caleb, because he had another spirite, and hath followed me stil, euen him will I bring into the lande, whither he went, and his seede shall inherite it.
Ka ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Kelepi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kehe, pea kuo muimui ʻaupito ia kiate au, ko ia te u ʻomi ai ia ki he fonua naʻe ʻalu ia ki ai; pea ʻe maʻu ia ʻe hono hako.
25 Nowe the Amalekites and the Canaanites remaine in the valley: wherefore turne backe to morowe, and get you into the wildernesse, by the way of the red Sea.
(Pea ko eni, naʻe nofo ʻi he vahaʻa moʻunga ʻae kau ʻAmaleki mo e kau Kēnani, ) Mou toe foki ʻapongipongi, pea mou ō ki he toafa ʻi he hala ki he Tahi Kulokula.”
26 After, the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
27 How long shall I suffer this wicked multitude to murmure against me? I haue heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmure against me.
“ʻE fēfē hono fai fuoloa ʻae kakai kovi ni, mo ʻenau lāunga kiate au? Kuo u fanongo ki he lāunga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, kuo nau lāunga ai kiate au.
28 Tell them, As I liue (saith the Lord) I wil surely do vnto you, euen as ye haue spoken in mine eares.
Ke ke tala kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e moʻoni ʻa ʻeku moʻui, pea te u fai kiate kimoutolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou lea ʻi hoku telinga:
29 Your carkeises shall fall in this wildernes, and all you that were counted through all your nombers, from twentie yeere olde and aboue, which haue murmured against me,
‌ʻE tō homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa ni ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe lau ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻo fakatatau ki homou lau kotoa pē, mei hono taʻu ʻe uofulu tupu, ʻakinautolu ʻaia kuo lāunga kiate au,
30 Ye shall not doubtles come into the land, for the which I lifted vp mine hande, to make you dwell therein, saue Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai te mou hoko atu ki he fonua, ʻaia ne u fuakava ke tuku kiate kimoutolu ke mou nofo ai, ka ko Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, mo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni.
31 But your children, (which ye said shoulde be a pray) them will I bring in, and they shall knowe the lande which ye haue refused:
Ka ko hoʻomou fānau, ʻakinautolu naʻa mou pehē ki ai tenau pōpula, te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki ai, pea ʻe ʻilo ʻekinautolu ʻae fonua kuo mou liʻaki.
32 But euen your carkeises shall fall in this wildernes,
Ka ko kimoutolu, ʻe tō homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa ni.
33 And your children shall wander in the wildernesse, fourtie yeeres, and shall beare your whoredomes, vntill your carkeises be wasted in the wildernesse.
Pea ʻe ʻalu fano pe hoʻomou fānau ʻi he toafa ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo fua hoʻomou feʻauaki, kaeʻoua ke ʻosiʻosi homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa.
34 After the number of the dayes, in the which ye searched out the lande, euen fourtie dayes, euery day for a yeere, shall ye beare your iniquity, for fourtie yeeres, and ye shall feele my breach of promise.
‌ʻE fakatatau ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻaia naʻa mou mataki ai ʻae fonua, ʻio, ko e ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, ko e ʻaho taki taha ki he taʻu ʻe taha, ʻio, ko e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu te mou fua hoʻomou angahala, pea te mou ʻilo ai ʻeku fakamamahi,
35 I the Lord haue said, Certainely I will doe so to all this wicked company, that are gathered together against me: for in this wildernesse they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
Kuo u lea ʻaki eni ʻeau ko Sihova, ko e moʻoni te u fai ia ki he kakai kovi ni kotoa pē, kuo tānaki ʻo fakataha ke angatuʻu kiate au: ʻe fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa ni, pea tenau mate ʻi ai.
36 And the men which Moses had sent to search the land (which, when they came againe, made all the people to murmure against him, and brought vp a slander vpon the lande)
Pea ko e kau tangata, naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kenau ʻalu ʻo vakai ki he fonua, ne nau liliu mai, pea naʻa nau fakalanga lāunga ʻi he kakai kiate ia, ʻi heʻenau ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kovi ʻoe fonua,
37 Euen those men that did bring vp that vile slander vpon the land, shall die by a plague before the Lord.
‌ʻIo, ʻae kau tangata naʻe ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kovi ʻoe fonua, naʻa nau mate ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha.
38 But Ioshua the sonne of Nun, and Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, of those men that went to search the land, shall liue.
Ka naʻe fakamoʻui ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu naʻe ʻalu ke vakai ki he fonua.
39 Then Moses tolde these sayings vnto all the children of Israel, and the people sorowed greatly.
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi lea ni ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe loto mamahi lahi ʻae kakai.
40 And they rose vp earely in the morning, and gate them vp into the toppe of the mountaine, saying, Loe, we be readie, to goe vp to the place which the Lord hath promised: for wee haue sinned.
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake pe, pea naʻa nau ō ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga, ʻonau pehē, “Vakai, kuo tau ʻi heni, ka tau ō ki he potu ʻaia kuo talaʻofa ki ai ʻe Sihova: he kuo mau angahala.”
41 But Moses said, Wherefore transgresse yee thus the commandement of the Lord? it will not so come well to passe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko e hā eni ʻoku mou talangataʻa ai ki he fekau ʻa Sihova? Ka ʻe ʻikai monūʻia ia.
42 Goe not vp (for the Lord is not among you) lest ye be ouerthrowe before your enemies.
‌ʻOua naʻa mou ʻalu hake, he ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova; naʻa taaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo homou ngaahi fili.
43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sworde: for in as much as ye are turned away from the Lord, the Lord also will not be with you.
He ko e kau ʻAmaleki mo e kau Kēnani ʻoku nau ʻi ai ʻi homou ʻao, pea te mou tō ʻi he heletā: koeʻuhi kuo mou fulituʻa kia Sihova, ko ia ʻe ʻikai ai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.”
44 Yet they presumed obstinately to goe vp to the top of the mountaine: but the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, and Moses departed not out of the campe.
Ka naʻa nau talangataʻa pe ʻonau ʻalu ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga: ka ko e puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea mo Mōsese, naʻe ʻikai ʻalu mei he ʻapitanga.
45 Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites, which dwelt in that mountaine, came downe and smote them, and consumed them vnto Hormah.
Pea naʻe toki hifo mai ʻae kau ʻAmaleki, mo e kau Kēnani, ʻakinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi he moʻunga ko ia, ʻonau taaʻi ʻakinautolu, mo haha ʻakinautolu, ʻo aʻu ki Hoama.
