Numbers 11
1 And it came to pass that when the people were giving themselves up to murmuring, it was grievous in the ears of Yahweh, —so Yahweh hearkened, and kindled was his anger, and the fire of Yahweh burned among them, and consumed the uttermost part of the camp.
E aconteceu que, queixando-se o povo, era mal aos ouvidos do Senhor; porque o Senhor ouviu-o, e a sua ira se acendeu, e o fogo do Senhor ardeu entre eles, e consumiu os que estavam na última parte do arraial.
2 Then did the people make outcry unto Moses, —and Moses prayed unto Yahweh, and the fire sank down.
Então o povo clamou a Moisés, e Moisés orou ao Senhor, e o fogo se apagou.
3 So he called the name of that place, Taberah ["A Burning"] because there burned among them the fire of Yahweh.
Pelo que chamou aquele lugar Tabera, porquanto o fogo do Senhor se acendera entre eles.
4 Moreover the mixed multitude that was in their midst concealed not their lusting, —and so even the sons of Israel, fell away and wept, and said: Who will grant us to eat flesh?
E o vulgo, que estava no meio deles, veio a ter grande desejo: pelo que os filhos de Israel tornaram a chorar, e disseram: Quem nos dará carne a comer?
5 We remember the fish that we did eat in Egypt, without money, —the cucumbers, and the water-melons, and the leeks and the onions, and the garlick.
Lembramo-nos dos peixes que no Egito comiamos de graça; e dos pepinos, e dos melões, e dos pórros, e das cebolas, e dos alhos.
6 But, now, our soul is dried up, there is nothing at all, —unless, unto the manna, [we turn] our eyes.
Mas agora a nossa alma se seca; coisa nenhuma há senão este maná diante dos nossos olhos.
7 Now, the manna, was like coriander seed, and the appearance thereof like the appearance of bdellium,
E era o maná como semente de coentro, e a sua cor como a cor de bdélio.
8 The people used to go about and pick it up, and grind it with a pair of mill-stones, or pound it in a mortar, and boil it in a pot, and make it into round cakes, —then was the taste thereof like the taste of a sweet cake made with oil.
Espalhava-se o povo, e o colhia, e em moinhos o moia, ou num gral o pizava, e em panelas o cozia, e dele fazia bolos: e o seu sabor era como o sabor de azeite fresco.
9 When the dew came down upon the camp by night, the manna came down thereupon.
E, quando o orvalho descia de noite sobre o arraial, o maná descia sobre ele.
10 So then Moses heard the people weeping by their families, every one at the entrance of his tent, —then kindled the anger of Yahweh fiercely, and in the eyes of Moses, it was grievous.
Então Moisés ouviu chorar o povo pelas suas famílias, cada qual à porta da sua tenda: e a ira do Senhor grandemente se acendeu, e pareceu mal aos olhos de Moisés.
11 And Moses said unto Yahweh—Wherefore hast thou let thy servant come to grief, and wherefore have I not found favour in thine eyes, —that thou shouldest lay the burden of all this people upon me?
E disse Moisés ao Senhor: Porque fizeste mal a teu servo, e porque não achei graça aos teus olhos; que pusesses sobre mim o cargo de todo este povo?
12 Did, I, conceive all this people, or, I, beget them, —that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father carrieth a suckling, unto the soil which thou didst swear unto their fathers?
Concebi eu porventura todo este povo? pari-o eu? que me dissesses: leva-o ao teu colo, como o aio leva o que cria, à terra que juraste a seus pais?
13 Whence should, I, have flesh to give to all this people, —for they keep weeping by me saying, Oh give us flesh that we may eat!
De onde teria eu carne para dar a todo este povo? porquanto contra mim choram, dizendo: Dá-nos carne a comer:
14 Unable, am, I, by myself, to carry all this people, —for they are too heavy for me.
Eu só não posso levar a todo este povo, porque muito pesado é para mim.
15 But if, in this way, thou art going to deal with me, slay me, I beseech thee, slay, if I have found favour in thine eyes, —and let me not see my grief,
E se assim fazes comigo, mata-me eu to peço, se tenho achado graça aos teus olhos, e não me deixes ver o meu mal.
16 Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Gather thou unto me seventy men, from among the elders of Israel, of whom thou knowest that they are elders of the people and their overseers, —then shalt thou take them unto the tent of meeting, and they shall station themselves there with thee.
E disse o Senhor a Moisés: Ajunta-me setenta homens dos anciãos de Israel, de quem sabes que são anciãos do povo, e seus oficiais: e os trarás perante a tenda da congregação, e ali se porão contigo
17 Then will I come down, and speak with thee there, and will take of the spirit that is upon thee and put upon them, —and they shall carry, with thee, the burden of the people, and, thou, shalt not carry it by thyself.
Então eu descerei e ali falarei contigo, e tirarei do espírito que está sobre ti, e o porei sobre eles: e contigo levarão o cargo do povo, para que tu só o não leves.
18 And, unto the people, shalt thou say: Hallow yourselves by to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh, for ye have wept in the ears of Yahweh saying—Who will grant us to eat flesh? for it was well with us in Egypt, —so then Yahweh will give you flesh and ye shall eat.
E dirás ao povo: santificai-vos para amanhã, e comereis carne: porquanto chorastes aos ouvidos do Senhor, dizendo: Quem nos dará carne a comer? pois bem nos ia no Egito: pelo que o Senhor vos dará carne, e comereis:
19 Not one day, shall ye eat nor two days, —nor five days nor ten days, nor twenty days:
Não comereis um dia, nem dois dias, nem cinco dias, nem dez dias, nem vinte dias;
20 for a month of days until it cometh forth out of your nostrils, so shall it become to you a loathsome thing, —because ye have refused Yahweh who is in your midst, and have wept before him, saying, Wherefore now came we forth out of Egypt?
Até um mês inteiro, até vos sair pelos narizes, até que vos enfastieis dela: porquanto rejeitastes ao Senhor, que está no meio de vós, e chorastes diante dele, dizendo: Porque saímos do Egito?
21 And Moses said, Six hundred thousand footmen, are the people in whose midst am, I, yet thou hast said—Flesh, will I give unto them, and they shall eat for a month of days.
E disse Moisés: Seiscentos mil homens de pé é este povo, no meio do qual estou: e tu tens dito: dar-lhes-ei carne, e comerão um mês inteiro.
22 Shall the flocks and herds, be slaughtered for them, that it may suffice for them? Shall all the fishes of the sea, be gathered together unto them that it may suffice for them?
Degolar-se-ão para eles ovelhas e vacas, que lhes bastem? ou ajuntar-se-ão para eles todos os peixes do mar, que lhes bastem?
23 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Shall the hand of Yahweh, fail? Now, shalt thou see whether my word come to pass unto thee or not.
Porém o Senhor disse a Moisés: Seria pois encurtada a mão do Senhor? agora verás se a minha palavra te acontecerá ou não.
24 And Moses went forth and spake unto the people the words of Yahweh, —and gathered together seventy men from among the elders of the people, and caused them to stand round about the tent.
E saiu Moisés, e falou as palavras do Senhor ao povo, e ajuntou setenta homens dos anciãos do povo e os pôs de roda da tenda.
25 Then Yahweh came down, in the cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave unto the seventy men—the elders. And it came to pass that when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and then did so no more.
Então o Senhor desceu na nuvem, e lhe falou; e, tirando do espírito, que estava sobre ele, o pôs sobre aqueles setenta anciãos: e aconteceu que, assim como o espírito repousou sobre eles, profetizaram; mas depois nunca mais.
26 Now there were two men left behind in the camp—the name of the one, was Eldad and the name of the other, Medad, so then the spirit, rested on them—they, being among them who were written, though they had not gone forth unto the tent, —but they prophesied in the camp.
Porém no arraial ficaram dois homens; o nome dum era Eldad, e o nome do outro Medad; e repousou sobre eles o espírito (porquanto estavam entre os escritos, ainda que não sairam à tenda), e profetizavam no arraial.
27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses and said, —Eldad and Medad, are prophesying in the camp!
Então correu um moço, e o anunciou a Moisés, e disse: Eldad e Medad profetizam no arraial.
28 Then responded Joshua son of Nun the attendant of Moses from his youth, and said, —My lord Moses forbid them!
E Josué, filho de Nun, servidor de Moisés, um dos seus mancebos escolhidos, respondeu, e disse: Senhor meu, Moisés, proíbe-lho.
29 But Moses said unto him, Art, thou, jealous for, me? Oh would that, all the people of Yahweh, were prophets! Yea let Yahweh put his spirit upon them!
Porém Moisés lhe disse: Tens tu ciúmes por mim? Oxalá que todo o povo do Senhor fosse profeta, que o Senhor desse o seu espírito sobre ele!
30 Then was Moses received back into the camp, —he and the elders of Israel.
Depois Moisés se recolheu ao arraial, ele e os anciãos de Israel.
31 Now, a wind, had sprung up, from Yahweh, and cut off quails from the sea, and let them lie over the camp—as it were a days journey here and a days journey there, round about the camp, —and as it were two cubits on the face of the land.
Então soprou um vento do Senhor, e trouxe codornizes do mar, e as espalhou pelo arraial quase caminho dum dia de uma banda, e quase caminho dum dia da outra banda, à roda do arraial; e estavam quase dois côvados sobre a terra.
32 And the people rose up all that day and all the night and all the next day, and gathered the quails, he that did least, gathered ten homers, —and they spread them out for themselves spreading away, round about the camp.
Então o povo se levantou todo aquele dia e toda aquela noite, e todo o dia seguinte, e colheram as codornizes; o que menos tinha, colhera dez homers; e as estenderam para si ao redor do arraial.
33 The flesh, was yet between their teeth, not yet chewed, —when the anger of Yahweh, had kindled upon the people, and Yahweh smote the people, with an exceeding great plague.
Quando a carne estava entre os seus dentes, antes que fosse mastigada, se acendeu a ira do Senhor contra o povo, e feriu o Senhor o povo com uma praga mui grande.
34 And the name of that place was called Kibroth-hattaavah—because there, they buried the people who had lusted,
Pelo que o nome daquele lugar se chamou Kibroth-hattaava porquanto ali enterraram o povo que teve o desejo.
35 From Kibroth-hattaavah, the people set forward to Hazeroth, —and they remained in Hazeroth.
De Kibroth-hattaava caminhou o povo para Hazaaroth, e pararam em Hazaaroth.
