< Numbers 14 >

1 That night, all the Israeli people cried loudly.
HOOKIEKIE ae la ke anaina kanaka a pau i ko lakou leo, a hooho ae la; a uwe iho la na kanaka ia po.
2 The next day they all complained to Aaron and Moses/me. All the men said, “We wish that we had died in Egypt, or in this desert!
Ohumu ae la na mamo a pau a Iseraela ia Mose a me Aarona: i aku la ke anaina kanaka a pau ia laua, E aho ko makou make ma ka aina o Aigupita! E aho ko makou make ma keia waonahele!
3 Why is Yahweh bringing us to this land, where we men will be killed with swords? And our wives and children will be taken away [to be slaves]. [Instead of going to Canaan]. It would be better for us to return to Egypt!”
No ke aha la hoi i lawe mai nei o Iehova ia kakou i keia aina, e make i ka pahikaua, a e lilo at ka kakou mau wahine a me na keiki i i pio? E aho paha e hoi kakou i Aigupita.
4 Then [some of] them said to each other, “We should choose a leader who will take us back to Egypt!”
I ae la lakou i kekahi i kekahi, E hoonoho kakou i luna no kakou, a e hoi aku i Aigupita.
5 Then Aaron and Moses/I bowed down [to pray] in front of all the Israeli people who had gathered there.
Alaila moe iho la o Mose laua o Aarona ilalo ke alo imua o ke anaina kanaka a pau i akoakoa o na mamo a Iseraela.
6 Joshua and Caleb, two of the men who had explored the land, tore their clothes [because they were very dismayed].
A o Iosua ke keiki a Nuna, a o Kaleba ke keiki a Iepune, o laua kekahi o na mea i makaikai i ka aina, haehae ae la laua i ko laua kapa.
7 They said to the Israeli people, “The land that we explored is very good.
Olelo aku la laua i ka poe mamo a pau a Iseraela, i aku la, O ka aina a makou i kaahele ai e makaikai, he aina maikai loa ia.
8 If Yahweh is pleased with us, he will lead us into that very fertile [IDM] land, and he will give it to us.
Ina i oluolu mai o Iehova ia ka kou, alaila e kai aku oia ia kakon i ua aina la, a e haawi mai hoi ia no kakou; he aina e kahe ana ka waiu a me ka meli
9 So do not rebel against Yahweh! And do not be afraid of the people in that land! We will (gobble them up/completely destroy them) [MET]! They do not have anyone who will protect them, but Yahweh will be with us [and help us]. So do not be afraid of them!”
Aka, mai kipi aku oukou ia Iehova, mai makau hoi i na kanaka o ka aina; no ka mea, he mea ai lakou na kakou: ua hala aku la ko lakou malu mai o lakou aku la, me kakou no hoi o Iehova; mai makau ia lakou.
10 Then all the Israeli people talked about [killing Caleb and Joshua by] throwing stones at them. But [suddenly] Yahweh’s glory appeared to them at the Sacred Tent.
Aka. kena ae la ke anaina kanaka a pau e hailuku ia laua i ua pohaku Alaila ikea ae la ka nani o Iehova ma ka halelewa o ke anaina, imua o na mamo a pau a Iseraela.
11 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “How long will these people reject me [RHQ]? I am tired of them not believing in what I [can do], in spite of all the miracles I have performed among them [RHQ]!
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Pehea la ka loihi o ka hoonaukiuki ana mai o keia poe kanaka ia'u? Ahea la hoi lakou e manaoio mai ai ia'u no na mea mana a pau a'u i hoike ai iwaena o lakou?
12 So I will cause a (plague/widespread sickness) to strike them and get rid of them. But I will cause your [descendants] to become a great nation. They will be a nation that is much greater and stronger than these people are.”
E luku aku au ia lakou i ke ahulau, a e pai ia lakou i ka aina hooili; a e hoolilo au ia oe i lahuikanaka e oi aku ana ka nui a me ka ikaika i ko lakou.
13 But Moses/I replied to Yahweh, “[Please do not do that, because] the people of Egypt will hear about it! You brought these Israeli people from Egypt by your great power,
Olelo aku la o Mose ia Iehova, Alaila e lohe ai ko Aigupita, (no ka mea, ma kou mana kau i lawe mai ai i keia poe kanaka mawaena mai o lakou, )
14 and the people of Egypt will tell that to the [descendants of Canaan] who live in this land. Yahweh, they have already heard about you. They know that you have (been with/helped) these people and that they have seen you face-to-face. They have heard that your cloud is like a huge pillar that stays over them, and by using that cloud you lead them during the day, and the cloud becomes like a fire at night [to give them light].
A e hai aku lakou ia i na kanaka o keia aina. Ua lohe lakou, e Iehova, o oe no mo keia poe kanaka, a ua ikeia hoi oe, e Iehova, he maka no he maka; a ua ku hoi kou ao maluna o lakou; a ua hele hoi oe imua o lakou i ko ao ma ke kia ao, a ma ke kia ahi i ka po.
15 If you kill these people all at one time, the people-groups who have heard about your [power] will say,
A i pepehi mai oe i keia poe kanaka e like me ke kanaka hookahi, alaila e olelo mai na lahuikanaka i lohe i kou kaulana ana, i ka i ana,
16 ‘Yahweh was not able to bring them into the land that he promised to give to them, so he killed them in the desert.’
No ka hiki ole ia Iehova ke hookomo aku i keia poe kanaka i ka aina ana i hoohiki ai no lakou, nolaila na pepehi oia ia lakou ma ka waouahele.
17 “So Yahweh, now show that you are very powerful. You said,
Ano la, ku nonoi aku nei au ia oe, i nui ka mana o kuu Haku. e like me ka olelo au i olelo mai ai, penei,
18 ‘I do not quickly become angry; instead, I love people very much, and I forgive people for having sinned and having disobeyed my laws. But I will always punish [LIT] people who are guilty of doing what is wrong. When parents sin, I will punish them, but I will also punish their children and their grandchildren and their great-grandchildren and their great-great-grandchildren.’
Ua altonui o Iehova, a ua nui kona lokomaikai, e kala ana i ka hew a a me ka lawehala ana, aole loa hoi e hoapono wale ana mai; e hoopai ana nae i ko ka tnakua lawehala maluna o na keiki a hiki aku i ke kuakahi a me ke kualua.
19 So, because you love people like that, forgive these people for the sins that they have committed, just like you have continued to forgive them ever since they left Egypt.”
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kala mai oe i ka hala o keia poe kanaka, e like me ka nui o kou lokomaikai; e like hoi me kau i kala mai ai i keia poe kanaka mai Aigupita mai, a hiki i keia manawa.
20 Then Yahweh replied, “I have forgiven them, as you requested me to.
I mai la o Iehova, Ua kala aku no wau, e like me kau i olelo mai ai.
21 But, just as certainly as I live and that people all over the world [can see] my (glory/glorious power), [I solemnly declare this: ]
Aka, me au e ola nei, e hoopihaia auanei ka honua i ka nani o Iehova.
22 All these people saw my glory and all the miracles that I performed in Egypt and in the desert, but they disobeyed me, and many times they tested [whether they could continue to do evil things without my punishing them].
No ka men, o kela poe kanaka a pau, ka poe i ike mai i kuu na-ni, a me na mea mana a'u i hana'i ma Aigupita, a ma ka waonahele, a he umi ko lakou aa ana mai ia'u. aole hoi i hooloho mai i kuu leo;
23 Because of that, not one of them will see the land that I promised their ancestors [that I would give to them]. No one who rejected me will see that land.
Aole loa lakou e ike i ka aina a'u i hoohiki ai no ko lakou poe kupuna, aole hoi kekahi o ka poe i hoonaukiuki mai ia'u e ike aku in wahi:
24 But Caleb, who serves me [well], is different from the others. He obeys me completely. So I will bring him into that land that he has already seen, and his descendants will inherit/possess some of it.
Aka, o ka'u kauwo, o Kaleha, no ka mea, he manao okoa maloko ona, a ua hahai pono mai oia ia'u, oia ka'u e hookomo ai i ka aina ana i hele aku ai; a e loaa i kana poe keiki ia aina.
25 So, since the descendants of Amalek and Canaan who are living in the valleys [in Canaan are very strong], when you leave here tomorrow, [instead of traveling toward Canaan], go back along the road through the desert towards the Red Sea.”
(Ua noho no ka Ameleka a me ka Kanaana ma ke awawa.) Apopo, e huli oukou, a e komo aku iloko o ka waonahele, ma ke ala e hiki ai i ke Kaiula.
26 Then Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona, i mai la,
27 “How long will the wicked people of this nation keep complaining about me [RHQ]? I have heard everything that they have grumbled/complained against me.
Pehea la ka loihi o ko keia anaina kanaka ino e ohumu mai ai ia'u? Ua lohe no wau i na ohumu ana a na mamo a Iseraela i ohumu mai ai ia'u.
28 So now tell them this: ‘Just as certainly as I, Yahweh, live, I will do exactly what you said would happen.
E hai aku oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, He oiaio, me ka oukou i olelo mai ai maloko o ko'u mau pepeiao, pela hoi ka'u e hana aku ai ia oukou.
29 [I will cause] all of you to die here in this desert! Because you grumbled about me, none of you who are more than 20 years old and who were counted when Moses counted everyone
E hanle no auanei ko oukou kupapau ma keia waonahele; a o ka poe a pau o oukou i heluia, ma ka huiualielu okoa o oukou, mai ka iwakalua o ka makahiki a keu aku, o ka poe i ohumu mai ia'u,
30 will enter the land that I solemnly promised to give to you. Only Caleb and Joshua will enter that land.
Aole loa oukou e komo aku iloko o ka aina a'u i hoohiki ai e hoonoho ia oukou ilaila; o laua wale no, o Kaleba ke keiki a Iepune, a o Iosua ke keiki a Nuna,
31 You said that your children would be taken from you [to become slaves], but I will take them into the land, and they will enjoy living in the land that you (rejected/said that you could not conquer).
Aka, o ka oukou poe keiki, na mea a oukou i olelo ai e lilo ana lakou i pio, o lakou ka'u e hookomo aku ai iloko, a e ike auanei lakou i ka aina a oukou i hoowahawaha ai.
32 But as for you [adults], you will die here in this desert.
Aka, o oukou, e haule auanei ko oukou mau kupapau ma ka waonahele.
33 And like shepherds [wander around in the desert as they take care of their sheep], your children will wander around in this desert for 40 years. Because you adults were not loyal/faithful to me, your children will suffer until you all die in the desert.
A e aea ana ka oukou poe keiki ma ka waonahele i na makahiki he kanaha, a e halihali lakou i ko oukou moekolohe ana, a hiki i ka nalo ana o ko oukou mau kupapau maloko o ka waonahele.
34 You will suffer for your sins for 40 years. That will be one year for each of the 40 days that the twelve men explored Canaan land. And I will be like an enemy to you.’
E like me ka helu ana o na la a oukou i makaikai ai i ka aina, hookahi kanaha la; o kekahi la no ka makahiki hookahi, pela oukou e lawe ai i ko oukou hewa, hookahi kanaha makahiki, a e ike auanei oukou i ko'u haalele ana ia oukou.
35 [This will certainly happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it! I will do these things to every one in this group who conspired against me. They (conspired against/decided together to reject) me here in the desert, and they will all die right here in this desert!”
Owau o Iehova ka mea i olelo, a he oiaio no, e hana aku no wau ia i keia anaina kanaka ino a pau, i ka poe i akoakoa e ku e ia'u. Ma keia waonahele lakou e hoopauia'i, a ilaila hoi e make ai lakou.
36 Then the ten men [who had explored Canaan and] who had urged the people to rebel against Yahweh by giving reports that discouraged the people
A o na kanaka a Mose i hoouna aku ai e makaikai i ka aina, a i ka hoi ana mai, hoolilo ae la lakou i ke anaina kanaka a pau i ka ohumu ia ia, i ka lakou olelo alapahi ana i ka aina;
37 were immediately struck with a plague/disease that Yahweh sent, and they died.
O ua mau kanaka la, ka poe i olelo hoino i ka aina, make iho la lakou i ke ahnlau imua o Iehova.
38 Of the twelve men who had explored Canaan, only Joshua and Caleb remained alive.
Aka, o Iosua ke keiki a Nuna, a o Kaleba ke keiki a Iepune, o laua kekahi mau mea i hele e makaikai i ka aina, ola no laua.
39 When Moses/I reported to the Israeli people what Yahweh had said, many of them were very sad.
Hai aku la o Mose ia mau olelo i na mamo a Iseraela; a uwe nui iho la na kanaka.
40 So the people got up early the next morning and started to go toward the hilly area in Canaan. They said, “[We know that] we have sinned, but now we [are ready to] enter the land that Yahweh promised to give to us.”
Ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, a pii ae la maluna pono o ka pun, me ka i ana, Eia no kakon, e hele aku hoi kakou i kahi a Iehova i olelo mai ai; no ka mea, ua hana hewa makou.
41 But Moses/I said, “Yahweh commanded you [to return to the desert, so] why are you now disobeying him [RHQ]? It will not (succeed/be possible).
Olelo aku la o Mose, No ke aha la oukou e hoohala nei i ke kauoha a Iehova? aka aole ia e hiki.
42 Do not try to enter the land now! [If you try], your enemies will defeat you, because Yahweh will not (be with/help) you.
Mai noho a pii aku oukou, aole o Iehova me oukou; o pepehiia auanei oukou imua o ko oukou poe enemi.
43 When you begin to fight the descendants of Amalek and Canaan, they will slaughter you! Yahweh will abandon you, because you have abandoned him.”
No ka mea, aia no ka Ameleka a me ka Kanaana imua o oukou. a e haule auanei oukou i ka pahikana; no ka mea, ua huli ae oukou mai o Iehova aku; no ia mea, aole o Iehova me oukou.
44 But even though Moses/I did not leave the camp, and the sacred chest that contained the Ten Commandments was not taken from the camp, the people began to go towards the hilly area in Canaan.
Aka, ua aa lakou e pii maluna pono o ka puu: aole nae i hele aku ka pahuberita o Iehova a me Mose, iwaho o kahi hoomoana.
45 Then the descendants of Amalek and Canaan who lived in that hilly area came down and attacked them and chased them as far [south] as [the town of] Hormah.
Alaila, iho mai la ka Ameleka a me ka Kanaana e noho ana ma ia puu, pepehi iho la ia lakou, a hoopuehu aku la a hiki i Horema.
