< 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.
Ngayon nagreklamo ang mga tao tungkol sa kanilang mga kabalisahan habang nakikinig si Yahweh. Narinig ni Yahweh ang mga tao at nagalit. Nagliyab sa kanila ang apoy na mula kay Yahweh at tinupok ang ilang bahagi ng kampo sa mga gilid nito.
2 Then the people cried out to Moses/me, and he/I prayed to Yahweh. Then the fire stopped burning.
Pagkatapos tumawag ang mga tao kay Moises, kaya nanalangin si Moises kay Yahweh, at huminto ang apoy.
3 So they called that place Taberah, [which means ‘burning’], because the fire from Yahweh had burned among them.
Pinangalanan ang lugar na iyon na Tabera, sapagkat nagliyab ang apoy ni Yahweh sa kanila.
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.
Ilang dayuhan ang nagsimulang magkampo kasama ang mga kaapu-apuhan ng Israel. Gusto nilang kumain ng masasarap na pagkain. Pagkatapos nagsimulang umiyak ang mga tao ng Israel at sinabi, “Sino ang magbibigay sa atin ng karne na kakainin?
5 They said, “We wish we had some meat!
Naaalala namin ang isda na kinain namin nang libre sa Ehipto, ang mga pipino, mga pakwan, mga dahon ng sibuyas o lasuna, ang mga sibuyas, at bawang.
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!”
Ngayon nanghihina kami. Wala kaming makitang makakain kundi manna.”
7 The manna resembled small white seeds.
Ang manna ay kahalintulad ng buto ng kulantro. Ito ay parang dagta.
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.
Ang mga tao ay naglalakad sa paligid at tinitipon ito. Ginigiling nila ito sa mga gilingan, binabayo ito sa mga bayuhan, pinakukuluan ito sa mga palayok, at ginagawang keyk. Ang lasa nito ay parang sariwang langis ng olibo.
9 Each night the manna came down on their ground where their tents were, like dew [from the sky].
Kapag bumaba ang hamog sa kampo sa gabi, bumabagsak din ang manna.
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.
Narinig ni Moises ang iyakan ng mga tao sa kanilang mga pamilya, at ang bawat lalaki ay naroon sa pasukan sa kaniyang tolda. Labis na nagalit si Yahweh, at sa mga mata ni Moises ang pagrereklamo nila ay mali.
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]?
Sinabi ni Moises kay Yahweh, “Bakit mo pinakitunguhan ang iyong lingkod ng masama? Bakit hindi ka nasisiyahan sa akin? Ipinapasan mo sa akin ang pasanin ng lahat ng taong ito. Ipinagbuntis ko ba ang lahat ng mga taong ito?
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]?
Ako ba ang nagsilang sa kanila upang sabihin mo sa akin, 'Dalhin mo sila sa iyong kandungan tulad ng pagdadala ng isang ama sa isang sanggol?' Kailangan ko ba silang dalhin sa lupain na iyong ipinangako sa kanilang mga ninuno upang ibigay sa kanila?
13 Where can I get meat to feed all these people? They keep complaining to me, saying, ‘Give us some meat to eat!’
Saan ako makakahanap ng karne na ibibigay ko sa lahat ng taong ito? Umiiyak sila sa aking harapan at sinasabin, 'Bigyan mo kami ng karneng kakainin.'
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.
Hindi ko na madalang mag-isa ang mga taong ito. Sobra na sila para sa akin.
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]!”
Yamang pinakikitunguhan mo ako sa ganitong paraan, patayin mo na ako ngayon, kung mabait ka sa akin, at alisin ang aking paghihirap.”
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.
Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Dalhin mo sa akin ang pitumpung nakakatanda ng Israel. Tiyaking sila ang mga nakakatanda at mga opisyal ng mga tao. Dalhin mo sila sa tolda ng pagpupulong upang tumayo roong kasama mo.
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.
Bababa ako at kakausapin ko kayo roon. Kukunin ko ang ilan sa Espiritu na nasa iyo at ilalagay ko ito sa kanila. Dadalhin nila ang pagpapahirap ng mga tao kasama mo. Hindi mo na dadalhin itong mag-isa.
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.
Sabihin mo sa mga tao, 'Italaga ninyo ang inyong mga sarili kay Yahweh bukas. Tunay na kakakain kayo ng karne, sapagkat umiyak kayo sa pandinig ni Yahweh. Sinabi ninyo, “Sino ang magbibigay sa atin ng karne upang ating kainin? Naging mabuti ito para sa atin sa Ehipto.” Kaya bibigyan kayo ni Yahweh ng karne, at kakainin ninyo ito.
19 You will eat meat not only for one or two days, nor only for five or ten or 20 days.
Hindi lamang kayo kakain ng karne sa loob ng isang araw, sa dalawang araw, sa limang araw, sa sampung araw, o sa dalawampung araw,
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].”’”
ngunit kakain kayo ng karne sa loob ng buong isang buwan hanggang sa ito ay lumabas sa inyong mga ilong. Ito ang magpapadiri sa inyo dahil itinakwil ninyo si Yahweh, na siyang kasama ninyo. Umiyak kayo sa kaniyang harapan. Sinabi ninyo, “Bakit pa natin iniwan ang Ehipto?''''''
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]
Pagkatapos sinabi ni Moises, “Kasama ko ang 600, 000 na katao, at sinabi mo, 'Bibigyan ko sila ng karne sa loob ng isang buong buwan.'
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]!”
Papatay ba kami ng kawan ng mga tupa at kawan ng mga baka upang magkasya sa kanila? Huhulihin ba namin ang lahat ng isda sa karagatan upang magkasya sa kanila?''
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.”
Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Maiksi ba ang kamay ko? Ngayon makikita mo kung totoo ang aking salita.''
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.
Lumabas si Moises sa tolda at sinabi niya sa mga tao ang mga salita ni Yahweh. Tinipon niya ang pitumpu sa mga nakakatanda ng mga tao at pumalibot sila sa tolda.
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.
Bumaba si Yahweh sa ulap at nagsalita kay Moises. Kinuha ni Yahweh ang ilan sa Espiritu na naroon kay Moises at nilagay ito sa pitumpung nakakatanda. Nang tumahan ang Espiritu sa kanila, nagpahayag sila, ngunit sa pagkakataong iyon lamang at hindi na naulit pa.
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).
Dalawang lalaking nagngangalang Eldab at Medad ang naiwan sa kampo. Tumahan din sa kanila ang Espiritu. Nakasulat ang kanilang pangalan sa listahan, ngunit hindi sila lumabas sa tolda. Gayon pa man, nagpahayag sila sa kampo.
27 So a young man ran and told Moses/me, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in all their tents!”
Isang binatang nasa kampo ang tumakbo at sinabi kay Moises, “Sina Eldad at Medad ay nagpapahayag sa kampo.”
28 Joshua, who had helped Moses/me since he was a young man, said, “Sir, tell them to stop doing that!”
Si Josue na lalaking anak ni Nun, ang tagapangasiwa ni Moises, ang isa sa mga lalaking pinili ang nagsabi kay Moises, “Aking among Moises, pigilan mo sila.”
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!”
Sinabi ni Moises sa kaniya, “Naninibugho ka ba para sa kapakanan ko? Nais kong lahat ng tao ni Yahweh ay mga propeta at ilagay niya ang kaniyang Espiritu sa kanilang lahat!''
30 Then Moses/I and all the leaders went back to their/our tents.
At bumalik sa kampo si Moises at ang mga nakakatanda ng Israel.
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!
Pagkatapos, isang hangin ang dumating mula kay Yahweh at nagdala ng pugo mula sa dagat. Bumagsak ang mga ito malapit sa kampo, na may isang araw na paglalakbay sa isang dako at isang araw na paglalakbay sa kabilang dako. Pumalibot ang mga pugo sa kampo na may dalawang siko ang taas mula sa lupa.
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].
Ang mga tao ay abala sa paghuhuli sa mga pugo ng buong araw, buong gabi, at sa sumunod na araw. Walang nanghuli ng mas kaunti sa sampung homer ng pugo. Ibinahagi nila ang mga pugo sa buong kampo.
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].
Habang nasa pagitan pa ng kanilang ngipin ang karne, habang nginunguya nila ito, nagalit si Yahweh sa kanila. Pinadalhan niya ang mga tao ng isang napakatinding sakit.
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’].
Pinangalanan ang lugar na iyon na Kibrot-hataava dahil doon nila inilibing ang mga taong nanabik sa karne.
35 From there, the Israelis continued walking [east] until they arrived at Hazeroth [town], where they stopped and stayed [for a long time].
Mula sa Kibrot-hataava, naglakbay ang mga tao patungong Hazerot, kung saan sila nanatili.
