Numbers 14
1 AND all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
Rhaengpuei boeih hol uh tih a ol te a huel uh. Te phoeiah pilnam he tekah khoyin ah rhap uh.
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!
Israel ca pum he Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah nul uh. Te rhoi taengah rhaengpuei boeih loh, “Egypt kho ah n'duek uh mako, he khosoek ah nim n'duek mai mako.
3 And wherefore hath the Lord brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?
cunghang dongah cungku ham he BOEIPA loh balae tih he khohmuen la mamih n'khuen. Mamih yuu ca he maeh la om uh pawn ni. Egypt la mael he mamih ham then ngai pawt nim? a Boeipa loh mamih he hela ingkhueh uh? Egypt ramla koep mael he then ngai mah pawt a? Moses neh Aaron taengah ati nauh.
4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
Te vaengah hlang loh a manuca taengah, “A lu pakhat n'tuek uh vetih Egypt la m'mael uh mako,” a ti uh.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
Te vaengah Moses neh Aaron tah Israel ca rhaengpuei hlangping boeih kah mikhmuh ah a maelhmai te a buenglueng rhoi.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
Tedae khohmuen aka yaam khuikah Nun capa Joshua neh Jephunneh capa Kaleb long tah a himbai te a phen rhoi.
7 And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land.
Te phoeiah Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih te a thui rhoi tih, “Te khohmuen ka paan uh tih ka yaam vaengah khohmuen khaw bahoeng, bahoeng then.
8 If the Lord delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.
BOEIPA he mamih taengah hmae tih mamih he te khohmuen la m'pawk sak vaengah suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen te mamih taengah m'paek bitni.
9 Only rebel not ye against the Lord, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the Lord is with us: fear them not.
BOEIPA bueng te tloelh uh boeh, nangmih loh khohmuen kah pilnam te rhih uh boeh. Amih kah hlipkhup te amih taeng lamloh nong coeng tih amih te mamih kah buh la om coeng. Tedae BOEIPA he mamih taengah a om dongah amih te rhih uh boeh,” a ti rhoi.
10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of the Lord appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.
Te vaengah rhaengpuei pum loh amih rhoi te lungto neh dae ham cai uh. Tedae BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah tingtunnah dap kah Israel ca boeih taengah a phoe pah.
11 And the Lord said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them?
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “He pilnam loh kai he mevaeng hil n'tlaitlaek uh vetih a khui ah miknoek cungkuem ka saii lalah mevaeng hil nim kai he n'tangnah uh pawtve.
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.
Amih te duektahaw neh ka ngawn vetih ka haek ni. Tedae nang te namtom tanglue la kang khueh vetih amih lakah na pilnu ngai ni,” a ti nah.
13 And Moses said unto the Lord, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them; )
Tedae Moses loh BOEIPA taengah, “A khui lamloh na thadueng neh he pilnam na khuen te Egypt loh ya saeh.
14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou Lord art among this people, that thou Lord art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
He khohmuen kah khosa rhoek taengah thui uh saeh. He pilnam lakli ah BOEIPA namah na om te a yaak uh tih BOEIPA namah taengah mik neh mik khaw hmu uh rhoi coeng. Nang kah cingmai khaw amih soah pai. Amih mikhmuh ah khothaih kah cingmai tung neh khoyin ah hmai tung la na caeh pah.
15 Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,
He pilnam he hlang pakhat bangla na duek sak koinih nang olthang a yaak vaengah namtom loh a thui bal ni.
16 Because the Lord was not able to bring this people into the land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in the wilderness.
Te vaengah, “Amih ham a toemngam pah khohmuen la BOEIPA loh he pilnam he khuen ham a coeng pawt dongah amih te khosoek ah a ngawn,” a ti uh ni.
17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
Thui ham na ti vanbangla ka Boeipa kah thadueng te pomsang mai laeh saeh.
18 The Lord is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.
BOEIPA tah thintoek a ueh tih sitlohnah khaw puh. Thaesainah neh boekoek khaw a phueih pah dae pa rhoek kathaesainah te ca rhoek soah khongthum, khongli duela a cawh tih hmil rhoe hmil pawh.
19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
Na sitlohnah dongkah boeilennah neh Egypt lamloh tahae hil pilnam na khuen bangla he pilnam kathaesainah he khodawkngai mai,” a ti nah.
20 And the Lord said, I have pardoned according to thy word:
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Nang ol bangla khodawk ka ngai coeng.
21 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.
Kai ka hingnah la ka om dongah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah he diklai pum ah bae.
22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;
Egypt neh khosoek ah ka tueng sak kamah kah thangpomnah neh ka miknoek te hlang boeih loh a hmuh. Tedae kai he voei rha khaw n'noemcai uh tih kai ol he hnatun uh pawh.
23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:
A napa rhoek taengah ka toemngam pah khohmuen te hmu uh pawt vetih kai aka tlaitlaek boeih loh te hmu mahpawh.
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.
Ka sal Kaleb tah a khuiah mueihla tloe a om tih kai hnukah hnawn uh. Te dongah anih te a pawk ham koi khohmuen la pahoi ka khuen vetih a tiingan loh te te a pang ni.
25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) To morrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
Kol kah khosa Amalek neh Kanaan te thangvuen ah mael laeh saeh lamtah nangmih ham khosoek kah carhaek tuipuei longpuei te paan uh laeh,” a ti nah.
26 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te a voek tih,
27 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
Boethae he rhaengpuei ham me hil nim kai taengah a nul uh ve? Amih Israel ca rhoek kah kohuetnah loh kai taengah a nul uh khaw ka yaak coeng.
28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
Kai hingnah BOEIPA kah olphong he amih taengah thui pah. Kai hna ah na thui bangla nangmih taengah ka saii van mahpawt nim?
29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured against me,
Na hlangmi boeih khuiah capa kum kul lamloh a so hang na soep thil boeih khaw kai taengah na nul vanbangla na rhok te he khosoek ah yalh ni.
30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
A khuiah nangmih khosak sak ham ka kut ka phuel coeng dae Jephunneh capa Kaleb neh Nun capa Joshua phoeiah tah te khohmuen la nangmih na kun uh mahpawh.
31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.
Na ca rhoek khaw maeh la om pawnko na ti uh cakhaw amih te a pawk puei vetih khohmuen na hnawt uh te khaw a ming uh bitni.
32 But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness.
Tedae nangmih tah namamih rhok te he khosoek ah ni a yalh eh.
33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.
Na ca rhoek te khosoek ah boiva aka dawn la kum likip om uh vetih na rhok a cing hil khosoek ah nangmih kah pumyoihnah te a phueih uh ni.
34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
Khohnin la hnin likip khuiah khohmuen na yaam uh vaengkah khohnin tarhing ah a kum dongah khaw hnin at te kum khat la om ni. Nangmih kathaesainah te kum sawmli na phueih uh vaengah kai kah noihhainah te na ming uh bitni.
35 I the Lord have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
Kai BOEIPA loh ka thui coeng atah he boethae rhaengpuei boeih taengah ka saii het mahpawt nim. Kai aka tuentah rhoek te he khosoek ah khawk uh tih pahoi duek uh ni,” a ti nah.
36 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,
Te dongah Moses loh khohmuen yaam ham a tueih hlang a mael uh vaengah tah rhaengpuei boeih te a taengah rhaeh la rhaeh uh tih khohmuen kawng te theetnah la a khuen.
37 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the Lord.
Khohmuen kah theetnah aka khuen hlang rhoek tah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah lucik dongah a thae la duek uh.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.
Tedae khohmuen yaam ham aka cet hlang rhoek khui lamloh Nun capa Joshua neh Jephunneh capa Kaleb tah hing.
39 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.
Moses loh he ol he Israel ca boeih taengah a thui vaengah pilnam bung bung nguekcoi uh.
40 And they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which the Lord hath promised: for we have sinned.
Mincang ah thoo uh tih tlang som la luei uh. “Amah dae la he, n'tholh uh dongah BOEIPA kah a thui hmuen la cet uh pawn sih,” a ti uh.
41 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the Lord? but it shall not prosper.
Te vaengah Moses loh, “Balae tih BOEIPA olka te na poe uh, te thaihtak he mahpawh.
42 Go not up, for the Lord is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.
Cet uh boeh, nangmih khui ah BOEIPA a om moenih. Na thunkha rhoek mikhmuh ah na yawk uh mahpawt nim?
43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the Lord, therefore the Lord will not be with you.
Nangmih mikhmuh ah Amalek neh Kanaan om lah ko. BOEIPA hnuk lamloh na mael uh dongah cunghang neh na cungku uh ni. Nangmih taengah BOEIPA om mahpawh,” a ti nah.
44 But they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.
Te vaengah tlang som la luei ham calak uh dae BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng neh Moses tah rhaehhmuen khui lamloh nong pawh.
45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah.
Tlang kah khosa Amalek neh Kanaan te ha suntla vaengah tah Amih te a ngawn uh tih Hormah duela amih te a phop uh.
