< Numbers 14 >

1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
Halkan sana namoonni waldaa sanaa hundinuu sagalee isaanii ol fudhatanii booʼan.
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole congregation said unto them: 'Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would we had died in this wilderness!
Israaʼeloonni hundinuu Musee fi Aroonitti guunguman; waldaan guutuunis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Nu utuu biyyuma Gibxitti dhumnee jiraannee! Yookaan utuu gammoojjii kana keessatti dhumnee jiraannee!
3 And wherefore doth the LORD bring us unto this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be a prey; were it not better for us to return into Egypt?'
Waaqayyo maaliif akka nu goraadeedhaan dhumnuuf jedhee biyya kanatti nu fida? Niitonni keenyaa fi ijoolleen keenya ni boojiʼamu. Biyya Gibxitti deebiʼuun nuu hin wayyuu?”
4 And they said one to another: 'Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.'
Isaanis, “Amma hoogganaa filannee biyya Gibxitti haa deebinu” waliin jedhan.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
Kana irratti Musee fi Aroon fuula guutummaa yaaʼii Israaʼel kanneen achitti walitti qabamanii duratti addaan lafatti gombifaman.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of them that spied out the land, rent their clothes.
Jarreen biyyattii keessa deemanii basaasan keessaa Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuuniitii fi Kaaleb ilmi Yefunee uffata ofii tarsaasanii,
7 And they spoke unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: 'The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceeding good land.
guutummaa yaaʼii Israaʼelootaatiin akkana jedhan; “Biyyi nu keessa deemnee basaasne sun akka malee gaarii dha.
8 If the LORD delight in us, then He will bring us into this land, and give it unto us — a land which floweth with milk and honey.
Waaqayyo yoo nutti gammade biyya sanatti nu galchee biyyattii aannanii fi damma baaftu sana nuu kenna.
9 Only rebel not against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us; their defence is removed from over them, and the LORD is with us; fear them not.'
Isin garuu Waaqayyotti hin fincilinaa. Waan nu isaan lilliqimsinuuf namoota biyya sanaa hin sodaatinaa. Gaaddisni isaan irraa kaʼeera; Waaqayyo nu wajjin jira. Isaan hin sodaatinaa.”
10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones, when the glory of the LORD appeared in the tent of meeting unto all the children of Israel.
Waldaan guutuun garuu dhagaan isaan tumuudhaaf mariʼate. Ulfinni Waaqayyoos fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti Israaʼeloota hundatti mulʼate.
11 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'How long will this people despise Me? and how long will they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have wrought among them?
Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Sabni kun hamma yoomiitti akkana na tuffata? Utuma ani mallattoowwan kanneen hunda gidduu isaaniitti hojjedhuu isaan hamma yoomiitti na amanuu didu?
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and destroy them, and will make of thee a nation greater and mightier than they.'
Ani golfaadhaan dhaʼee isaan nan balleessa; siʼi garuu saba isaan caalaa guddaa fi jabaa sin godha.”
13 And Moses said unto the LORD: 'When the Egyptians shall hear — for Thou broughtest up this people in Thy might from among them —
Museen Waaqayyoon akkana jedhe; “Warri Gibxi waaʼee waan kanaa ni dhagaʼu! Ati humna keetiin saba kana gidduu isaaniitii baaftee fiddeertaatii.
14 they will say to the inhabitants of this land, who have heard that Thou LORD art in the midst of this people; inasmuch as Thou LORD art seen face to face, and Thy cloud standeth over them, and Thou goest before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night;
Isaanis waaʼee waan kanaa saba biyya sana keessa jiraatutti ni odeessu. Yaa Waaqayyo, isaan akka ati saba kana gidduu jirtu dhagaʼaniiru; yaa Waaqayyo isaan akka ati fuuluma isaaniitti mulʼatu, akka duumassi kee isaaniin ol jiruu fi akka ati guyyaa utubaa duumessaatiin, halkan immoo utubaa ibiddaatiin isaan dura deemtu dhagaʼanii jiru.
15 now if Thou shalt kill this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of Thee will speak, saying:
Yoo ati saba kana yeruma tokkotti barbadeessite, saboonni oduu waaʼee keetii dhagaʼan,
16 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land which He swore unto them, therefore He hath slain them in the wilderness.
‘Waaqayyo biyya kakuudhaan waadaa isaaniif gale sanatti saba kana galchuu hin dandeenye; inni kanumaaf gammoojjii keessatti isaan gogorraʼe’ jedhu.
17 And now, I pray Thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as Thou hast spoken, saying:
“Egaa akkuma ati akkana jettee dubbatte sanatti jabinni Gooftaa haa argisiifamu:
18 The LORD is slow to anger, and plenteous in lovingkindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
‘Waaqayyo dafee hin aaru; jaalalli isaa immoo guddaa dha; inni cubbuu fi fincila namaaf dhiisa. Taʼu illee inni nama yakka hojjetu adabu malee hin dhiisu; inni hamma dhaloota sadaffaa fi afuraffaatti sababii cubbuu abbootii isaaniitiif jedhee ijoollee ni adaba.’
19 Pardon, I pray Thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of Thy lovingkindness, and according as Thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.'
Akkuma yeroo isaan biyya Gibxii baʼanii jalqabdee hamma ammaatti dhiifama isaaniif goote sana akkuma jaalala kee guddaa sanaatti cubbuu saba kanaa dhiisiif.”
20 And the LORD said: 'I have pardoned according to thy word.
Waaqayyo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Ani akkuma ati kadhatte sana isaaniif dhiiseera.
21 But in very deed, as I live — and all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD —
Taʼu illee akkuma ani dhugumaan jiraataa taʼee fi akkuma ulfinni Waaqayyoo dhugumaan lafa hunda guute sana,
22 surely all those men that have seen My glory, and My signs, which I wrought in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have put Me to proof these ten times, and have not hearkened to My voice;
namoota ulfina koo arganii, mallattoowwan ani biyya Gibxiitii fi gammoojjii keessatti hojjedhe arganii garuu naa ajajamuu didanii yeroo kudhan na qoran sana keessaa namni tokko iyyuu,
23 surely they shall not see the land which I swore unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that despised Me see it.
tokkoon isaanii biyya ani kakuudhaan abbootii isaaniitiif waadaa gale sana hin argan. Namni na tuffate tokko biyya sana hin argu.
24 But My servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed Me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.
Garbicha koo Kaaleb garuu sababii inni hafuura addaa qabuu fi sababii garaa guutuudhaan na duukaa buʼaa jiruuf, ani biyya inni dhaqe sanatti isa galcha; sanyiin isaas biyya sana ni dhaala.
25 Now the Amalekite and the Canaanite dwell in the Vale; tomorrow turn ye, and get you into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.'
Sababii Amaaleqoonnii fi Kanaʼaanonni Sululoota keessa jiraataniif, isin bor deebiʼaatii karaa Galaana Diimaatiin gammoojjiitti qajeelaa.”
26 And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
Waaqayyo Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe:
27 'How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, that keep murmuring against Me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they keep murmuring against Me.
“Waldaan hamaan kun hamma yoomiitti natti guunguma? Ani guungummii Israaʼeloota guungumtoota sanaa dhagaʼeera.
28 Say unto them: As I live, saith the LORD, surely as ye have spoken in Mine ears, so will I do to you:
Akkana jedhii isaanitti himi; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ani jiraataadhaatii, akkuma isin gurra kootti dubbattan sana anis isinitti godha:
29 your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness, and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, ye that have murmured against Me;
Reeffi keessan jechuunis reeffi warra umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi digdamaa olii kanneen lakkoobsa uummataa keessatti lakkaaʼamanii natti guunguman hundaa gammoojjii kana keessatti harcaʼee hafa.
30 surely ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I lifted up My hand that I would make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
Kaaleb ilma Yefuneetii fi Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni malee tokkoon keessan iyyuu biyya ani keessa isin qubachiisuuf kakadhe sanatti hin galtan.
31 But your little ones, that ye said would be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have rejected.
Ani garuu ijoollee keessan warra isin ni boojiʼamu jettan sana itti nan galcha; isaanis biyya isin tuffattan sana ni beeku.
32 But as for you, your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness.
Isin garuu, reeffi keessan gammoojjuma kana keessatti harcaʼa.
33 And your children shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your strayings, until your carcasses be consumed in the wilderness.
Ijoolleen keessan waggaa afurtama gammoojjii kana keessa ni jooru; hamma isin hundi gammoojjii keessatti dhumtanitti isaan sababii amanamummaa dhabuu keessaniitiif achitti rakkatu.
34 After the number of the days in which ye spied out the land, even forty days, for every day a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know My displeasure.
Isin akkuma bultii afurtama biyya sana basaastan, akkasuma bultiin tokko akka waggaa tokkootti lakkaaʼamee waggaa afurtama cubbuu keessaniif dhiphattu; yeroo sana isin akka ani isiniin mormu ni beektu.’
35 I the LORD have spoken, surely this will I do unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against Me; in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.'
Ani Waaqayyo waan kana dubbadheen jira; ani dhugumaan waan kana waldaa hamaa naan mormuuf walitti gurmaaʼe kana guutuutti nan fida. Isaan gammoojjii kana keessatti dhumu; asumattis ni duʼu.”
36 And the men, whom Moses sent to spy out the land, and who, when they returned, made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report against the land,
Namoonni Museen akka isaan biyyattii basaasaniif erge yommuu achii deebiʼanitti waaʼee biyya sanaa gabaasa hamaa waldaatti gabaasanii akka waldaan Museetti guungumu godhan jechuunis
37 even those men that did bring up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
namoonni waaʼee biyyattii gabaasa hamaa gabaasuutti gaafataman sun dhaʼichaan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhuman.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, remained alive of those men that went to spy out the land.
Namoota biyyattii basaasuu dhaqan keessaa Iyyaasuu ilma Nuunitii fi Kaaleb ilma Yefunee qofatu duʼa oole.
39 And Moses told these words unto all the children of Israel; and the people mourned greatly.
Museen waan kana hunda Israaʼelootatti himnaan isaan akka malee booʼan.
40 And they rose up early in the morning, and got them up to the top of the mountain, saying: 'Lo, we are here, and will go up unto the place which the LORD hath promised; for we have sinned.'
Isaanis guyyaa itti aanu ganamaan fiixee biyya gaaraatti ol baʼanii, “Nu cubbuu hojjenneerra; nu amma gara lafa Waaqayyo waadaa nuu gale sanaa dhaqna” jedhan.
41 And Moses said: 'Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD, seeing it shall not prosper?
Museen garuu akkana jedhe; “Isin maaliif ajaja Waaqayyoo cabsitu? Wanni kun isiniif hin milkaaʼu!
42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten down before your enemies.
Akka diinota keessaniin hin moʼatamneef ol hin baʼinaa; Waaqayyo isin wajjin hin jiruutii;
43 For there the Amalekite and the Canaanite are before you, and ye shall fall by the sword; forasmuch as ye are turned back from following the LORD, and the LORD will not be with you.'
Amaaleqoonnii fi Kanaʼaanonni achitti isinitti dhufuutii. Sababii isin Waaqayyo irraa garagaltaniif inni isin wajjin hin jiraatu; goraadeedhaan barbadeeffamtu.”
44 But they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain; nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.
Isaan garuu utuu Musee fi taabonni kakuu Waaqayyoo qubata keessaa gad hin baʼin yaaduma isaaniitiin kaʼanii fiixee biyya gaaraatti ol baʼan.
45 Then the Amalekite and the Canaanite, who dwelt in that hill-country, came down, and smote them and beat them down, even unto Hormah.
Yommus Amaaleqoonnii fi Kanaʼaanonni gaara sana irra jiraatan gad buʼanii isaan dhaʼanii hamma Hormaatti isaan ariʼan.
