Numbers 11
1 And the people murmured sinfully before the Lord; and the Lord heard [them] and was very angry; and fire was kindled among them from the Lord, and devoured a part of the camp.
Ankyɛre biara na nnipa no firii aseɛ nwiinwii sɛ nneɛma nkɔ yie mma wɔn, na Awurade teeɛ. Nʼabufuhyeɛ kɔɔ wɔn so wɔ wɔn anwiinwii no ho. Yei enti, Awurade maa ogya bɛhyee beaeɛ a na wɔte hɔ no mfikyire.
2 And the people cried to Moses: and Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire was quenched.
Wɔteateaam frɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔmmɛgye wɔn. Mose bɔɔ mpaeɛ srɛɛ Awurade maa wɔn na ogya no dumiiɛ.
3 And the name of that place was called Burning; for a fire was kindled among them from the Lord.
Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, wɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin sɛ Tabera a asekyerɛ ne “Ahyeɛ”, ɛfiri sɛ, ogya a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn no hyee wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ.
4 And the mixed multitude among them lusted exceedingly; and they and the children of Israel sat down and wept and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
Misraimfoɔ a na wɔwɔ wɔn ntam no kɔn dɔɔ nneɛma pa a na ɛwɔ Misraim no. Yei amma Israelfoɔ no ani ansɔ baabi a na wɔwɔ hɔ no, enti wɔsuu sɛ, “Hwan na ɔbɛma yɛn aduane adi?
5 We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt freely; and the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the garlic, and the onions.
Ɛberɛ a na yɛwɔ Misraim no, na yɛnya ɛnam ne nsuomnam we. Saa ara nso na na yɛnya kokumba, ɛferɛ, gyeene ne galik nso die.
6 But now our soul is dried up; our eyes [turn] to nothing but to the manna.
Nanso, seesei deɛ, yɛn ahoɔden so ate na ɛda biara yɛnnya biribiara sɛ mana nko ara.”
7 And the manna is as coriander seed, and the appearance of it the appearance of hoarfrost.
Na mana no kɛseɛ te sɛ wisa aba na ɛsɛ ɛhyɛ a awaawae firi dubona ho agu fam.
8 And the people went through the field, and gathered, and ground it in the mill, or pounded it in a mortar, and baked it in a pan, and made cakes of it; and the sweetness of it was as the taste [of] wafer made with oil.
Nnipa no tasee firi fam na wɔayam anaa wɔasi no waduro mu ama adane esiam. Wɔwie a, wɔnoa de bi yɛ taterɛ. Woka wʼano a, ɛte sɛ taterɛ a wɔakye wɔ nhahamma ngo mu.
9 And when the dew came upon the camp by night, the manna came down upon it.
Anadwo bosuo mu na mana no tɔ.
10 And Moses heard them weeping by their families, every one in his door: and the Lord was very angry; and the thing was evil in the sight of Moses.
Mose tee sɛ mmusuakuo no nyinaa gyinagyina, atwa wɔn ntomadan ho ahyia resu. Yei hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo yie. Na anyɛ Mose nso abodwo koraa.
11 And Moses said to the Lord, Why have you afflicted your servant, and why have I not found grace in your sight, that you should lay the weight of this people upon me?
Mose bisaa Awurade sɛ, “Adɛn enti na woyɛ me saa na wode saa nnipa a wɔte seyie yi nyinaa adesoa abɛsoa me?
12 Have I conceived all this people, or have I born them? that you say to me, Take them into your bosom, as a nurse would take her suckling, into the land which you sware to their fathers?
Wɔyɛ me mma anaasɛ me nso meyɛ wɔn agya? Yei enti na wode wɔn ama me sɛ menhwɛ wɔn sɛ nkɔkoaa kɔsi sɛ yɛbɛduru asase a wohyɛɛ wɔn agyanom ho bɔ no?
13 Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep to me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
Ɛhefa na merekɔfa ɛnam abrɛ nnipa yi? Wɔsu kyerɛ me sɛ, ‘Ma yɛn ɛnam!’
14 I shall not be able to bear this people alone, for this thing is too heavy for me.
Mʼankasa merentumi nsoa ɔman yi! Adesoa no mu yɛ duru ma me dodo!
15 And if you do thus to me, kill me utterly, if I have found favor with you, that I may not see my affliction.
Na sɛ saa na wo ne me bɛdi no deɛ a, mesrɛ, kum me seesei ara; ɛbɛyɛ adom ama me! Yi me firi saa ahokyere yi mu!”
16 And the Lord said to Moses, Gather me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom you yourself know that they are the elders of the people, and their scribes; and you shall bring them to the tabernacle of witness, and they shall stand there with you.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Frɛ Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ no mu aduɔson ma me; fa wɔn bra Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu na wo ne wɔn nnyina hɔ.
17 And I will go down, and speak there with you; and I will take of the spirit that is upon you, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear together with you the burden of the people, and you shall not bear them alone.
Mɛba hɔ na me ne wo abɛkasa na honhom a ɛwɔ wo so no, mɛfa na mede akɔgu wɔn nso so bi; ɛba saa a, wɔne wo bɛsoa nnipa no adesoa sɛdeɛ ɛrenyɛ wo nko ara wʼadesoa.
18 And to the people you shall say, Purify yourselves for the morrow, and you shall eat flesh; for you wept before the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: and the Lord shall allow you to eat flesh, and you shall eat flesh.
“Ka kyerɛ nnipa no na wɔnnwira wɔn ho na ɔkyena, wɔbɛnya ɛnam awe. Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Awurade ate mo sufrɛ a ɛfa nneɛma a mogyaa no Misraim no ho na ɔrebɛma mo ɛnam. Mobɛwe;
19 You shall not eat one day, nor two, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days;
ɛnyɛ ɛda koro anaa nnanu anaa nnanum anaa dadu anaa adaduonu!
20 you shall eat for a full month, until [the flesh] come out at your nostrils; and it shall be nausea to you, because you disobeyed the Lord, who is among you, and wept before him, saying, What had we to do to come out of Egypt?
Na bosome baako mu, mobɛwe ɛnam ara ma apuro mo ama afa mo hwene mu. Ɛfiri sɛ, moapo Awurade a ɔka mo ho wɔ ha no, na moasu ama Misraim nso.’”
21 And Moses said, The people among whom I am are six hundred thousand footmen; and you said, I will give them flesh to eat, and they shall eat a whole month.
Mose kaa sɛ, “Mmarima nko ara mpem ahansia na wɔwɔ ha, ɛnna woahyɛ wɔn bɔ sɛ wobɛma wɔn ɛnam awe ara bosome!
22 Shall sheep and oxen be slain for them, and shall it suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, and shall it suffice them?
Sɛ yɛkum yɛn nnwan ne yɛn anantwie nyinaa koraa a, ɛrenso wɔn so. Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkyere ɛpo mu ɛnam nyinaa ansa na yɛatumi adi wo bɔhyɛ no so!”
23 And the Lord said to Moses, Shall not the hand of the Lord be fully sufficient? now shall you know whether my word shall come to pass to you or not.
Na Awurade bisaa Mose sɛ, “Da bɛn na meyɛɛ mmerɛ? Afei wobɛhunu sɛ mʼasɛm yɛ nokorɛ anaa ɛnyɛ nokorɛ.”
24 And Moses went out, and spoke the words of the Lord to the people; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and he set them round about the tabernacle.
Enti Mose firii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu hɔ kɔkaa nsɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no nyinaa kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Ɔboaboaa mpanimfoɔ aduɔson ano ma wɔtwaa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho hyiaeɛ.
25 And the Lord came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy men that were elders; and when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied and ceased.
Na Awurade nam omununkum mu baa fam ne Mose kasaeɛ, na ɔfaa honhom a ɛwɔ Mose so no de guu mpanimfoɔ aduɔson no so. Ɛberɛ a honhom no baa wɔn so kakra no, wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm mmerɛ tiawa bi mu.
26 And there were two men left in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Modad; and the spirit rested upon them, and these were of the number of them that were enrolled, but they did not come to the tabernacle; and they prophesied in the camp.
Nanso na mpanimfoɔ aduɔson no mu baanu a wɔfrɛ wɔn Eldad ne Medad da so wɔ wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ. Na mmerɛ a honhom no baa wɔn so wɔ hɔ no, wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm wɔ hɔ.
27 And a young man ran and told Moses, and spoke, saying, Eldad and Modad prophesy in the camp.
Mmeranteɛ bi tuu mmirika kɔbɔɔ Mose asɛm a asie no ho amaneɛ
28 And Joshua the son of Naue, who attended on Moses, the chosen one, said, [My] lord Moses, forbid them.
na Nun babarima Yosua a na wɔayi no sɛ ɔnyɛ Mose ɔboafoɔ no ampene so, na ɔkaa sɛ, “Owura, ma wɔnnyae!”
29 And Moses said to him, Are you jealous on my account? and would that all the Lord's people were prophets; whenever the Lord shall put his spirit upon them.
Mose bisaa no sɛ, “Me ho na woretwe ninkunu yi? Ɛkaa me nko a, na anka Awurade nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa yɛ adiyifoɔ a Awurade de ne honhom agu wɔn nyinaa so!”
30 And Moses departed into the camp, himself and the elders of Israel.
Afei, Mose ne Israel mpanimfoɔ no sane kɔɔ wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ.
31 And there went forth a wind from the Lord, and brought quails over from the sea; and it brought them down upon the camp a day's journey on this side, and a day's journey on that side, round about the camp, as it were two cubits from the earth.
Awurade bɔɔ ahum maa ɛde mmoko firi ɛpo mu bɛguu atenaeɛ hɔ ne ɛho mmaa nyinaa. Baabiara a obi bɛfa no, na nnomaa yi bi atu nenam asase ani bɛyɛ anammɔn ɛnan.
32 And the people rose up all the day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered quails; he that gathered least, gathered ten measures; and they refreshed themselves round about the camp.
Enti ɛda mu no nyinaa, nnipa kyekyeree mmoko no bi kunkumm wɔn awia ne anadwo ne nʼadekyeeɛ nso. Deɛ wannya bi no koraa na ɔnyaa susukora ɔha! Mmoko buu so wɔ atenaeɛ hɔ nyinaa.
33 The flesh was yet between their teeth, before it failed, when the Lord was angry with the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague.
Na nnipa no firii aseɛ wee mmoa no bi. Wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ weeɛ no, Awurade bo sane fuu wɔn maa ɔde ɔyaredɔm kumm wɔn mu fa kɛseɛ no ara.
34 And the name of that place was called the Graves of Lust; for there they buried the people that lusted.
Enti wɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin sɛ Kibrot-Hataawa a asekyerɛ ne, “Akɔnnɔ damena” ɛfiri sɛ, wɔn a na wɔn ani bere ɛnam na wɔn kɔn adɔ Misraim tena no na wɔsiee wɔn wɔ hɔ.
35 The people departed from the Graves of Lust to Aseroth; and the people halted at Aseroth.
Ɔman no tu firii hɔ kɔtenaa Haserot kakra.
