< 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.
Mgbe na-adịghị anya ụmụ Izrel bidoro itamu ntamu nʼihi ihe ike niile ha na-ezute nʼije ha. Ma ntamu a ruru Onyenwe anyị ntị. Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị were iwe dị ukwuu megide ha. Ọkụ sitere nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ, ree nʼetiti ha, repịa ụfọdụ ndị bi nʼakụkụ ngwụsị ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ahụ.
2 And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto the LORD, and the fire abated.
Mgbe nke a mere, ụmụ Izrel tikuru Mosis mkpu akwa. Mosis kpere ekpere nye Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ha, ọkụ ahụ kwụsịkwara.
3 And the name of that place was called Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
Nʼihi ya, a kpọrọ ebe ahụ Tabera, nʼihi ọkụ ahụ si nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ ree nʼetiti ha.
4 And the mixed multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
Ndị amakekwu so ụmụ Izrel nʼije a malitere itamu ntamu banyere nri ndị ọzọ na-agụ ha agụụ. Nke a mere ka ụmụ Izrel malite ịkwa akwa, na-asị, “A sịkwarị na anyị nwere anụ anyị ga-ata.
5 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt for nought; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:
Anyị chetara azụ anyị tara nʼIjipt, nke na-adịghị efu anyị ego, ya na kukumba, na melọn, na liik, na ayo na galiik.
6 but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all: we have nought save this manna to look to.
Ma ugbu a, anyị enweghịkwa agụụ iri nri, nʼihi na site nʼụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị, ọ bụ naanị mánà bụ ihe oriri anyị nwere.”
7 And the manna was like coriander seed, and the appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium.
Mánà dịka mkpụrụ kọrianda, na-acha ka eso osisi kpọrọ nkụ.
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 fresh oil.
Ndị Izrel na-ejegharị na-achịkọta ha. Emesịa, ha na-eji nkume e ji akwọ nri na-akwọri ha. Oge ụfọdụ, ha na-eji ikwe nri sụọ ya. Emesịa, ha na-esi ya esi, maọbụ ghee ya eghe. Ọ na-atọ dịka ihe e ji mmanụ oliv ghee.
9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.
Mánà ndị a na-ada mgbe igirigi dara nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu nʼabalị.
10 And Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased.
Mosis nụrụ mkpu akwa ụmụ Izrel niile, nke na-ada nʼezinaụlọ ọbụla nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ikwu ha. Iwe were Onyenwe anyị nke ukwuu. Otu a kwa, obi jọrọ Mosis njọ nke ukwuu.
11 And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou evil entreated thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
Mosis jụrụ Onyenwe anyị sị, “Gịnị mere i ji bokwasị ohu gị nsogbu dị otu a nʼisi? Gịnị ka m mere na m ahụtakwaghị amara nʼebe ị nọ, nke mere i ji bukwasị m ibu arọ nke ilekọta ndị a?
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 swarest unto their fathers?
Ọ bụ m tụrụ ime ndị a niile? Ọ bụ m mụrụ ha? Gịnị mere i ji si m kuru ha nʼaka m gawa nʼala ahụ ị ṅụrụ nʼiyi inye nna nna ha, dịka m bụ nne nwa na-ekugharị nwantakịrị?
13 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
Ebee ka m ga-achọta anụ ga-ezuru igwe mmadụ ndị a? Lee na ha na-akwasa m akwa na-asị m, ‘Nye anyị anụ!’
14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
Agaghị m ebulite ibu ịchịkọta ndị a niile nʼonwe m! Ibu a dị m arọ nke ukwuu.
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 see my wretchedness.
Ọ bụrụ na ị ga-esi otu a meso m mmeso, biko napụ m ndụ m ugbu a, nʼihi na ọnwụ m ga-egosi na m natara amara nʼebe ị nọ. Site nʼọnọdụ a ga-ewetara m mbibi wezuga m.”
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.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Kpọkọta iri ndị okenye ụmụ Izrel asaa, ndị ị maara na ha bụ ndị ndu, na ndị nlekọta ije ozi nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel. Kpọta ha nʼụlọ nzute m ka ha soro gị guzoro.
17 And I will come down and talk 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.
Aga m abịa nʼebe ahụ gwa gị okwu. Mgbe ahụ kwa, aga m ewere ụfọdụ nʼime Mmụọ m dị nʼime gị tinye nʼime iri ndị ndu asaa ahụ. Ha ga-enyere gị aka ibu ibu arọ nke ịchịkọta ụmụ Izrel. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ọ gaghị abụkwa ibu dịrị naanị gị ibu.
18 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
“Ugbu a, gwa ndị Izrel niile si ha, ‘Doonụ onwe unu nsọ, kwadoonụ maka echi, mgbe unu ga-ata anụ. Onyenwe anyị nụrụ mgbe unu kwara akwa sị, “A sịkwa na anyị nwere anụ anyị ga-ata. Ihe dịrị anyị mma nʼIjipt karịa otu ọ dị ugbu a.”
19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
Anụ unu ga-eri abụghị naanị nke otu ụbọchị, maọbụ ụbọchị abụọ, maọbụ ụbọchị ise, maọbụ iri, ma ọ bụkwanụ iri ụbọchị abụọ!
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 which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?
Kama unu ga-eri ya otu ọnwa zuru ezu, ruo mgbe ọ ga-esi unu nʼimi sọpụta, ghọrọ unu ihe ịsọ oyi. Nʼihi na unu ajụla Onyenwe anyị, onye nọ nʼetiti unu, kwaa akwa nʼihu ya, sị, “Gịnị mere anyị ji site nʼala Ijipt pụta?”’”
21 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.
Ma Mosis sịrị Onyenwe anyị, “Ọnụọgụgụ ndị ikom dị narị puku isii ndị ji ụkwụ eje ka m nọ nʼetiti ha, ma ị na-asị, ‘Aga m enye ha anụ otu ọnwa.’
22 Shall flocks and herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?
Ọ ga-ezuru ha ma ọ bụrụ na e gbuoro ha igwe ehi na atụrụ? Ọ bụ azụ niile nke dị nʼoke osimiri ga-ezuru ha ma egbuo ha niile nye ha?”
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.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị Mosis, “Aka Onyenwe anyị ọ dị mkpụmkpụ? Ugbu a, ị ga-ahụ ma m ga-emezu okwu m, maọbụ na m agaghị emezu ya.”
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.
Ya mere, Mosis pụrụ ga gwa ụmụ Izrel ihe Onyenwe anyị kwuru. Ọ chịkọtara iri ndị okenye asaa ahụ nye ha ọnọdụ gburugburu ụlọ nzute ahụ.
25 And the LORD came down in the cloud, and spake 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.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị rịdatara nʼime igwe ojii. Ya na Mosis kparịtaa ụka. Onyenwe anyị weere ụfọdụ nʼime Mmụọ dị nʼime Mosis, tinye ya nʼime iri ndị okenye asaa ndị ahụ. Mgbe Mmụọ a batara nʼime ha, ha niile buru amụma. Ma ha ebughị amụma gaa nʼihu.
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 written, but had not gone out unto the Tent: and they prophesied in the camp.
Ma mmadụ abụọ nʼime iri ndị okenye asaa ndị ahụ, Eldad na Medad nọgidere nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ha. Ọ bụ ezie na e depụtara aha ha dịka ndị ndu, ma ha esoghị ndị ọzọ gaa nʼụlọ nzute. Ma Mmụọ ahụ bịakwasịrị ha nʼebe ahụ ha nọ. Ha bukwara amụma.
27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp.
Otu okorobịa gbapụrụ ọsọ gaa kọọrọ Mosis sị ya, “Eldad na Medad na-ebu amụma nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ha.”
28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them.
Joshua nwa Nun, onyeozi Mosis site na mgbe ọ bụ okorobịa, gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Onyenwe m Mosis, mee ka ndị a kwụsị ibu amụma.”
29 And Moses said unto him, Art thou jealous for my sake? would God that all the LORD’S people were prophets, that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!
Ma Mosis zara sị, “Ọ bụ nʼihi ikwochitara m ekworo ka i ji chọọ ka m kwụsị ha? Ọ gaara atọ m ụtọ ma a sị na ndị Onyenwe anyị niile bụ ndị amụma, ndị Onyenwe anyị ga-etinye Mmụọ ya nʼime ha!”
30 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
Mgbe ahụ Mosis na ndị okenye Izrel ndị ahụ niile lọghachiri nʼebe ụlọ ikwu ha dị.
31 And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought 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.
Otu oke ifufe sitere nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ bịa si nʼosimiri bute ọtụtụ nnụnụ a na-akpọ kweel. O mere ka nnụnụ ndị a daa nʼebe ụmụ Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu ha, nʼime ogige ya niile. Nnụnụ ndị a fere ihe dịka otu mita site nʼelu ala, nʼakụkụ niile, ruo nʼebe mmadụ pụrụ iji ụkwụ jeruo nʼotu ụbọchị. Ha jupụtakwara ebe niile.
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 homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
Ya mere ndị Izrel biliri ụbọchị ahụ niile, na nʼabalị ahụ niile, na echi ya niile pụọ ịchịkọta nnụnụ kweel ndị a! Onye gbutere nke nta gbutezuru ihe ọtụtụ homa iri. Ha gbasara ha akụkụ niile nke ogige ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ahụ.
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.
Ma mgbe anụ ndị a ka dị ha nʼọnụ, Onyenwe anyị were iwe dị ukwuu megide ha. O tiri ha nrịa nrịa na-efe efe.
34 And the name of that place was called Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.
Nʼihi nke a, a kpọrọ aha ebe ahụ Kibrọt Hataava, nʼihi na nʼebe ahụ ka e liri ndị Izrel nwụrụ nʼihi oke ọchịchọ nri.
35 From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed unto Hazeroth; and they abode at Hazeroth.
Site na Kibrọt Hataava, ndị Izrel biliri njem rute Hazerọt ebe ha nọrọ.
