< Numbers 11 >

1 And the people were as murmurers, speaking evil in the ears of the LORD; and when the LORD heard it, His anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and devoured in the uttermost part of the camp.
Mokolo moko, bana ya Isalaele bakomaki kolelalela na tina na pasi na bango. Boye, kolelalela yango ekomaki kino na matoyi ya Yawe. Tango ayokaki yango, kanda na Ye emataki makasi mpe moto kowuta epai na Yawe epelaki kati na bango mpe etumbaki ndambo ya bato kati na molako.
2 And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto the LORD, and the fire abated.
Bato bagangaki epai ya Moyize; ye abondelaki Yawe, mpe moto ekufaki.
3 And the name of that place was called Taberah, because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
Boye, bakomaki kobenga esika yango « Tabeera, » pamba te moto ya Yawe ezikisaki bato ya Isalaele.
4 And the mixed multitude that was among them fell a lusting; and the children of Israel also wept on their part, and said: 'Would that we were given flesh to eat!
Mokolo moko, bato ya bikolo mosusu oyo bazalaki elongo na bana ya Isalaele bakomaki na posa makasi ya kolia misuni. Bongo bana ya Isalaele bakomaki lisusu kolelalela mpe koloba: « Ah, nani penza akoki kopesa biso misuni ya kolia?
5 We remember the fish, which we were wont to eat in Egypt for nought; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
Tokanisi lisusu bambisi, bandunda ya ndenge na ndenge, pasiteki, bandembi, matungulu, ayi oyo tozalaki kolia ya ofele na Ejipito.
6 but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all; we have nought save this manna to look to.' —
Kasi sik’oyo, banzoto na biso ebebi penza, tozali lisusu te kolia biloko wana nyonso! Tokomi kaka komona mana oyo! »
7 Now the manna was like coriander seed, and the appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium.
Mana ezalaki lokola mbuma ya koriande mpe ezalaki komonana pembe lokola mayi ya nzete oyo babengaka bedeliumi.
8 The people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and seethed it in pots, and made cakes of it; and the taste of it was as the taste of a cake baked with oil.
Bato bazalaki kopanzana bipai na bipai mpo na kolokota yango, mpe na sima, bazalaki konika yango na libanga to mpe kotuta yango na liboka, bongo nde bakokaki kolamba yango na banzungu to kosalela yango mikate. Mikate na yango ezalaki na elengi lokola bagato oyo basala na mafuta ya sika.
9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it. —
Na butu, tango mamwe ezalaki kokita, mana mpe ezalaki kokweya nzela moko na yango.
10 And Moses heard the people weeping, family by family, every man at the door of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased.
Moyize ayokaki ndenge libota moko na moko ezalaki kolelalela na ekotelo ya ndako na bango ya kapo. Yawe asilikaki makasi; mpe Moyize ayokaki pasi mingi na motema.
11 And Moses said unto the LORD: 'Wherefore hast Thou dealt ill with Thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in Thy sight, that Thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
Moyize alobaki na Yawe: — Mpo na nini komonisa mosali na Yo pasi ya boye? Mabe nini ngai nasali penza mpo ete osundolela ngai mokumba ya bato oyo?
12 Have I conceived all this people? have I brought them forth, that Thou shouldest say unto me: Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing-father carrieth the sucking child, unto the land which Thou didst swear unto their fathers?
Boni, ngai moto namemaki mokumba ya bato oyo nyonso to nabotaki bango? Mpo na nini oloba na ngai ete namema bango na maboko lokola bana mike, na mokili oyo olakaki na ndayi epai ya bakoko na bango?
13 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they trouble me with their weeping, saying: Give us flesh, that we may eat.
Ngai nakozwa misuni ya kolia wapi mpo na bato oyo nyonso oyo bazali kokoba kolelalela epai na ngai: « Pesa biso misuni ya kolia! »
14 I am not able to bear all this people myself alone, because it is too heavy for me.
Ngai moko nakokoka te komema bato oyo nyonso; mokumba oyo eleki monene mpo na ngai.
15 And if Thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray Thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in Thy sight; and let me not look upon my wretchedness.'
Soki ezali kaka boye nde ozali kosala ngai, eleki malamu ete oboma ngai kaka sik’oyo. Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na Yo, kotika te ete namona kobebisama na ngai.
16 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather unto Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with thee.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Kati na bakambi ya Isalaele, sangisela Ngai mibali tuku sambo, ba-oyo oyebi ete bazali bakambi mpe bakalaka kati na bato. Tika ete baya na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe batelema wana elongo na yo.
17 And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.
Nakokita mpe nakosolola na yo kuna. Nakokamata Molimo oyo ezali epai na yo mpe nakotia yango epai na bango. Bongo, bakosunga yo mpo na komema mokumba ya bato oyo mpo ete omema yango lisusu yo moko te.
18 And say thou unto the people: Sanctify yourselves against to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying: Would that we were given flesh to eat! for it was well with us in Egypt; therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
Loba na bato: « Bomibongisa mpe bomibulisa mpo na lobi, pamba te bokolia misuni. Yawe ayokaki tango bozalaki kolelalela: ‹ Ah, nani penza akoki kopesa biso misuni ya kolia? Biso oyo tozalaki na biso malamu na Ejipito! › Sik’oyo Yawe akopesa bino misuni mpe bokolia yango.
19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
Bokolia yango te kaka mokolo moko to mikolo mibale to mitano to zomi to mpe tuku mibale.
20 but a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you; because that ye have rejected the LORD who is among you, and have troubled Him with weeping, saying: Why, now, came we forth out of Egypt?'
Kasi bokolia yango sanza mobimba kino ekobima bino na zolo mpe bokoyoka yango nkele, pamba te bobwakaki Yawe oyo azali kati na bino, bolelaki-lelaki liboso na Ye mpe bolobaki: ‹ Mpo na nini tobimaki na Ejipito? › »
21 And Moses said: 'The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand men on foot; and yet Thou hast said: I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month!
Moyize alobaki lisusu: — Bato nkoto nkama motoba bazali kotambola sima na ngai, mpe Yo ozali koloba: « Nakopesa bango misuni ya kolia mpo na sanza mobimba! »
22 If flocks and herds be slain for them, will they suffice them? or if all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, will they suffice them?'
Ekokoka penza ata soki babomi bibwele nyonso oyo bazali na yango, ezala ngombe to bantaba? Ekokoka penza ata soki balobi mbisi nyonso ya ebale monene?
23 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Is the LORD'S hand waxed short? now shalt thou see whether My word shall come to pass unto thee or not.'
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Boni, loboko na Yawe ezali solo mokuse? Okomona sik’oyo soki maloba oyo nalobi ekokokisama to ekokokisama te mpo na yo.
24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the Tent.
Boye, Moyize abimaki mpe ayebisaki bato maloba oyo Yawe ayebisaki ye. Asangisaki bakambi tuku sambo mpe atelemisaki bango zingazinga ya Ndako ya kapo.
25 And the LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy elders; and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
Yawe akitaki na nzela ya lipata mpe asololaki na ye; akamataki nguya ya Molimo, oyo ezalaki epai na Ye, mpe atiaki yango epai ya bakambi tuku sambo. Tango kaka Molimo akitelaki bango, bakomaki kosakola, kasi bakobaki te.
26 But there remained two men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of them that were recorded, but had not gone out unto the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
Nzokande, bato mibale oyo bakombo na bango ezalaki Elidadi mpe Medadi batikalaki kati na molako. Bango mpe bazalaki na molongo ya bampaka, kasi bakendeki te na Ndako ya kapo. Molimo akitelaki bango mpe bakomaki kosakola kati na molako.
27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said: 'Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.'
Elenge mobali moko apotaki mbangu mpe akendeki koyebisa Moyize: — Elidadi mpe Medadi bazali kosakola kati na molako!
28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses from his youth up, answered and said: 'My lord Moses, shut them in.'
Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, oyo azalaki mosungi ya Moyize wuta bolenge na ye alobaki: — Moyize, nkolo na ngai, pekisa bango!
29 And Moses said unto him: 'Art thou jealous for my sake? would that all the LORD'S people were prophets, that the LORD would put His spirit upon them!'
Kasi Moyize azongisaki: — Boni, okosalela ngai zuwa na likambo nini? Nakosepela kutu ete bato nyonso bakoma basakoli mpe Yawe akitisa Molimo na Ye epai na bango!
30 And Moses withdrew into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
Bongo, Moyize mpe bakambi nyonso ya Isalaele bazongaki na molako.
31 And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought across quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day's journey on this side, and a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and about two cubits above the face of the earth.
Boye, Yawe atindaki mopepe moko oyo ememaki bankanga wuta na ebale monene mpe ebwakaki yango na molako mpe na zingazinga na yango. Etando oyo bankanga ekweyaki ezalaki molayi ya mobembo ya mokolo moko na makolo, mpe ezipaki mabele na bosanda ya metele moko.
32 And the people rose up all that day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails; he that gathered least gathered ten heaps; and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
Bato babimaki mpo na kolokota bankanga mokolo mobimba, butu na yango mpe mokolo oyo elandaki. Moto moko te atikalaki kozwa na se ya bakilo nkoto moko; mpe batandaki yango na zingazinga ya molako.
33 While the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the anger of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.
Kasi, wana misuni ezalaki nanu kati na minoko na bango mpe basilisaki nanu kotafuna yango te, kanda ya Yawe epelaki mpo na bango mpe apesaki bango etumbu ya makasi.
34 And the name of that place was called Kibroth-hattaavah, because there they buried the people that lusted.
Yango wana, bakomaki kobenga esika yango « Kibiroti-Atava, » pamba te ezalaki na esika wana nde bakundaki bato ya lokoso.
35 From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed unto Hazeroth; and they abode at Hazeroth.
Longwa na Kibiroti-Atava, bana ya Isalaele basalaki mobembo kino na Atseroti mpe bavandaki kuna.
