Numbers 11
1 One day the people complained to Yahweh about their troubles. When Yahweh heard what they were saying, he became angry. So he sent a fire which burned among the people at the edge of their camp.
Kane koro ji ngʼur ne Jehova Nyasaye kuom chandruok mane gineno, kendo kane owinjo ngʼurgino mirimbe nomedore. Kuom mano mach mane oa kuom Jehova Nyasaye noliel e kindgi mi owangʼo bath kambi konchiel.
2 Then the people cried out to Moses/me, and he/I prayed to Yahweh. Then the fire stopped burning.
Kane ji oywak ne Musa, ne olamo Jehova Nyasaye mi mach notho.
3 So they called that place Taberah, [which means ‘burning’], because the fire from Yahweh had burned among them.
Omiyo kanyo noluong ni Tabera (tiende ni Kama Mach osewangʼo) nikech mach moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye nosewangʼo bath kambi konchiel e kindgi.
4 Then some troublemakers from other people-groups [who were traveling] with the Israelis began to want better food. And [when they started complaining] the Israeli people also started to complain.
Joma yoreyore mane obiro kodgi nochako dwaro chiemo mamoko, kendo jo-Israel nochako ywak kawacho niya, “Mad debed ni wan gi ringʼo ma wanyalo chamo!
5 They said, “We wish we had some meat!
Mano kaka waparo rech mane wachamo Misri maonge chudo moro amora, bende waparo olembe mopogore opogore, kitungu kod kitungu marachar.
6 We remember the fish that we ate while we were in Egypt, fish that was given to us without (cost/asking us to pay for it). And we had all the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic [that we wanted]. But now we do not have any desire to eat, because all we have to eat is this manna!”
Koro sani waonge gi ndhandhu mar chiemo; kendo ok wane gimoro amora makmana manna-gi!”
7 The manna resembled small white seeds.
Manna-no ne chalo gi kothe matindo tindo marachere kendo ma kitgi ne chalo gi duogo.
8 [Each morning] the people would go out and gather some [from the surface of the ground]. Then they made flour by grinding it or pounding it with stones. Then they [added water and] boiled it in a pot, or they made flat cakes with it [and baked them]. The cakes tasted like bread that was baked with [olive] oil.
Ji ne wuok gokinyi michok manna-go bangʼe giregogi e pongʼ lwedo kata yokogi e pany. Ne gitedogi e agulu kata dwalogi ka ngʼama dwalo makati. Bende ne gichalo gimoro molos gi mo zeituni.
9 Each night the manna came down on their ground where their tents were, like dew [from the sky].
Kane thoo omako kambi gotieno, to manna bende ne lwar piny.
10 Moses/I heard all the Israeli people complaining as they were standing in the entrances of their tents. Yahweh became very angry, and Moses/I was also very perturbed.
Musa nowinjo ji duto moa e anywola ka anywola kaywak, ka moro ka moro ochungʼ e dho hembe. Jehova Nyasaye iye nomedo owangʼ kendo kihondko nomako Musa.
11 He/I [went into the Sacred Tent and] asked Yahweh, “Why have you caused me, your servant, to experience this trouble [RHQ]? Act mercifully to me! What wrong have I done, with the result that you have appointed me to take care of all of these people [RHQ]?
Nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye niya, “En angʼo momiyo isekelo chandruok ma kama ne jatichni? En angʼo ma asetimo ma ok mori momiyo imiya tingʼ mapek mar jogi duto?
12 (I am not their father./Am I their father?) [RHQ] Why have you told me to take care of them like a woman carries around her baby and (nurses it/gives it her milk) [MET, RHQ]? How can I take them to the land that you promised to give to our ancestors [RHQ]?
Bende ne amako ich mar jogi duto? Bende ne anywologi? Angʼo momiyo iwachona mondo akaw tingʼ-gi ka atingʼogi e kora mana kaka japidi tingʼo nyithindo matindo, mondo atergi e piny mane isingori ne kweregi ni nitergie.
13 Where can I get meat to feed all these people? They keep complaining to me, saying, ‘Give us some meat to eat!’
Dayud ringʼo madirom jogi kanye? Gisiko ka giywakna ni, ‘Miwa ringʼo mondo wacham!’
14 I cannot carry all these people’s burdens by myself! [They are like a heavy load [MET], and] I cannot carry this very heavy load any more.
Ok anyal tingʼo jogi duto kenda awuon; gipek mohewa.
15 If you intend to act like this toward me, kill me now. If you are really concerned about me, be kind to me and [kill me to] end my misery [of trying to take care of them]!”
Ka mano e kaka idwaro tiyo koda, to nega sani, to ka dipo ni ikecha, to yie iwe miya chandruok ma kama.”
16 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Summon 70 men whom you know are leaders among the Israeli people. Tell them to stand with you in front of the Sacred Tent.
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kama: “Kelna jodong Israel piero abiriyo ma ingʼeyo ni jotelo kendo ruodhi. Kelgi e Hemb Romo kendo gichungʼ kodi kanyo.
17 I will come down and talk with you there. Then I will take some of [the power of] my Spirit that you have, and I will put [that power] on them also. They will help you to take care of some of the things that the people are concerned about, in order that you will not need to do it alone.
Abiro lor mondo awuo kodi kanyo, kendo abiro kawo teko mar loch moko kuomi mane amiyi kendo ami jogo. Gibiro konyi rito ogandano makoro tingʼno ok noturi kendi.
18 “Furthermore, say to the people, ‘Make yourselves acceptable to me, and tomorrow you will have meat to eat. You were complaining, and Yahweh heard you when you were saying, “We want some meat to eat. We had better food in Egypt!” Now Yahweh will give you some meat, and you will eat it.
“Nyis jo-Israel kama: ‘Pwodhreuru ka uikoru ne kiny ma ubiro chamoe ringʼo; nimar Jehova Nyasaye osewinjo ywak maru niya, “Mad dibed ni nitie kama wanyalo yudoe ringʼo mwachamo! Ne wawinjo maber e piny Misri!” Omiyo koro Jehova Nyasaye nomiu ringʼo, ma ubiro chamo.
19 You will eat meat not only for one or two days, nor only for five or ten or 20 days.
Ok unuchame mana kuom ndalo achiel kende, kata ndalo ariyo, kata ndalo abich, kata apar kata piero ariyo,
20 [You will eat meat every day] for one month, and then you will loathe/despise it, and it will cause you to want to vomit. [This will happen] because you have rejected Yahweh who is here among you, and you have wailed in his presence, saying [“We would have had better food to eat] if we had not left Egypt [RHQ].”’”
to unuchame kuom dwe achiel, manyaka othingʼu mi ungʼogi nikech usedagi Jehova Nyasaye modak e kindu kendo useywak e nyima, kuwacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo ne waa Misri?”’”
21 But Moses/I replied to Yahweh, “There are 600,000 men [plus women and children] here with me, so ([why] do you say ‘I will give them plenty of meat every day for a month!’?/it does not seem right for you to say ‘I will give them plenty of meat every day for a month!’) [RHQ]
To Musa nodwoko niya, “Antie gi ji alufu mia achiel mawuotho gi tiendgi, to in to iwacho ni, ‘Abiro miyogi ringʼo moromogi chamo kuom dwe achiel mangima!’
22 Even if we killed all the sheep and cattle, that would not [RHQ] be enough [to provide meat for all of them] Even if we caught all the fish in the sea [and gave it to them], that would not be enough [RHQ]!”
Bende ginyalo yiengʼ ka kweth mag jamni kod kweth mag dhok oyangʼ duto? Bende ginyalo yiengʼ ka rech duto manie nam omaknegi?”
23 But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Do you think that I [SYN] have no power? You will now see if I can do what I say I will do.”
Jehova Nyasaye nopenjo Musa niya, “Bende nitie gima nyalo tamo Jehova Nyasaye? Kawuononi ibiro ngʼeyo ka wechena gin adier kata ok adier.”
24 So Moses/I went out [from the Sacred Tent] and told the people what Yahweh had said. Then he/I gathered together the 70 leaders and told them to stand around the Sacred Tent.
Omiyo Musa nowuok kendo nonyiso ji gima Jehova Nyasaye nowacho. Nokelo jodong-gi piero abiriyo ma gichokore kanyakla kendo noketogi duto gichungʼ ka gilworo Hemb Romo.
25 Then Yahweh came down in the cloud [that was above the tent] and spoke to Moses/me. He took some of [the power of] the Spirit that he had given to Moses/me and gave it to the 70 leaders. By means of the power of the Spirit within them, they (prophesied/spoke messages that Yahweh gave them), but they did that only once.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nolor e bor polo mi owuoyo kode, kendo nokawo teko moko mane osemiye mi omiyo jodongo piero abiriyogo. Kane Roho odonjo kuomgi, ne gikoro wach, to bangʼ mano ne ok gichako gitimo kamano kendo.
26 Two of the leaders whom Moses/I appointed, Eldad and Medad, were not there when the rest of them gathered together. They had not left [their tents] to go and stand around the Sacred Tent. But Yahweh’s Spirit came on them also, and they started to (prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh).
Kata kamano, ji ariyo ma nying-gi Eldad kod Medad, mane osekwan kaachiel gi jodongo piero abiriyo-ka nodongʼ e kambi. To kata kane ok gidhi e Hemb Romo kamano, Roho nobiro kuomgi mi gikoro wach e kambi.
27 So a young man ran and told Moses/me, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in all their tents!”
Rawera moro noringo mi odhi ir Musa mowachone niya, “Eldad kod Medad koro wach e kambi.”
28 Joshua, who had helped Moses/me since he was a young man, said, “Sir, tell them to stop doing that!”
Joshua wuod Nun, mane jakony Musa chakre tin-ne, nowacho ne Musa niya, “Ruodha, kwergi!”
29 But Moses/I replied, “(Are you worried that they might injure my reputation/Do you think that I want to be the only one who prophesies) [RHQ]? I wish that all Yahweh’s people could (prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh). I wish that Yahweh would give the power of his Spirit to all of them!”
To Musa nodwoko niya, “Nyiego omaki nikech wachna? Mad ne oganda duto mag Jehova Nyasaye bed jonabi mi oket Roho mare kuomgi!”
30 Then Moses/I and all the leaders went back to their/our tents.
Eka Musa kod jodong Israel nodok e kambi.
31 Then Yahweh sent a strong wind from the sea. It blew quail into the area all around the camp for miles in every direction, [and caused the quail to fall onto the ground]. They were piled up on the ground about (3 feet/1 meter) high!
Eka Jehova Nyasaye notugo yamo mokelo aluru koa e nam. Yamo nokelogi ma gichokore e alwora mar kambi madirom fut adek koa piny, kendo kama ne gichokoreno ne nyalo romo wuoth mar ndalo achiel.
32 So the people went out and gathered up the quail all that day, and all that night, and all of the following day. [It seemed as though] everyone gathered at least 50 bushels! They spread the quail out on the ground all around the camp, [so that the quail would dry out].
Odiechiengno duto kod otieno gi odiechiengʼ maluwe duto ji nowuok kendo nochoko aluru. Onge ngʼama nochoko aluru matin ne atonge apar. Bangʼe ne gimoyogi e kambi mondo gituo.
33 [Then they cooked them and started to eat them]. But while they were still eating the meat [MTY], Yahweh [showed that he] was very angry with them. He struck them with a severe plague/sickness, [and many people died].
To kane pok gimuonyo ring alurugo, mirimb Jehova Nyasaye nomedore kuomgi, kendo nonegogi gi masira malich.
34 The people who died and were buried were the ones who had said they wanted to eat meat [like they had formerly eaten in Egypt]. So they called that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, [which means ‘graves of those who craved’].
Omiyo kanyo noluongi ni Kibroth Hatava, nikech kanyo ema ne giyikoe joma ne wuoch ringʼo omako.
35 From there, the Israelis continued walking [east] until they arrived at Hazeroth [town], where they stopped and stayed [for a long time].
Koa Kibroth Hatava, ji nodhi nyaka Hazeroth kendo negidak kanyo.
