Numbers 16
1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
Na rĩrĩ, Kora mũrũ wa Iziharu, mũrũ wa Kohathu, ũrĩa warĩ mũrũ wa Lawi, marĩ na andũ amwe a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni nĩo Dathani na Abiramu, ariũ a Eliabu, na Oni mũrũ wa Pelethu, magĩtuĩka a kũngʼathia.
2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
Nao magĩũkĩrĩra Musa. Hamwe nao haarĩ arũme a Isiraeli 250, atongoria mooĩkaine a kĩrĩndĩ kĩu arĩa maathuurĩtwo marĩ a kĩama.
3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: why then do ye raise yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
Nao magĩũka marĩ gĩkundi makararie Musa na Harũni, makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩmwĩtũgĩrĩtie mũno! Kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩ gĩothe nĩ gĩtheru, mũndũ o mũndũ, nake Jehova arĩ hamwe nao. Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte mwĩtũũgĩrie igũrũ rĩa kĩũngano gĩkĩ kĩa Jehova?”
4 And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
Rĩrĩa Musa aiguire ũguo-rĩ, akĩgũa, agĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ.
5 And he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near to him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near to him.
Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩĩra Kora na arũmĩrĩri ake othe atĩrĩ: “Rũciinĩ, Jehova nĩakonania nũũ wake na nũũ mũtheru, na nĩakareka mũndũ ũcio amũkuhĩrĩrie. Mũndũ ũrĩa agaathuura, ũcio nĩwe akaareka amũkuhĩrĩrie.
6 This do; Take for yourselves censers, Korah, and all his company;
Wee Kora na arũmĩrĩri aku othe, ũũ nĩguo mũgeeka: mũkoya ngĩo cia gũcinĩra ũbumba,
7 And put fire in them, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
na rũciũ mũciĩkĩre mwaki na ũbumba mũrĩ mbere ya Jehova. Mũndũ ũrĩa Jehova agaathuura-rĩ, ũcio agaatuĩka nĩwe mũtheru. Inyuĩ Alawii nĩmwĩtũgĩrĩtie mũno!”
8 And Moses said to Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:
Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra Kora atĩrĩ, “Ta thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ Alawii!
9 Seemeth it but a small thing to you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them?
Anga mũtiganĩire nĩ Ngai wa Isiraeli kũmwamũrania na kĩrĩndĩ kĩrĩa kĩngĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli, akamũrehe hakuhĩ nake nĩgeetha mũrutage wĩra hema-inĩ ĩrĩa nyamũre ya Jehova, na mũrũgamage mbere ya kĩrĩndĩ mũgĩtungatagĩre?
10 And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
Inyuĩ hamwe na Alawii othe a thiritũ yanyu nĩamũrehete hakuhĩ nake, no rĩu mũrageria kuoya wĩra wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai o naguo.
11 For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
Wee na arũmĩrĩri aku othe mũnganĩte hamwe mũũkĩrĩre Jehova. Harũni nũũ atĩ nĩguo mũnugune nĩ ũndũ wake?”
12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: who said, We will not come up:
Musa agĩcooka agĩĩta Dathani na Abiramu, ariũ a Eliabu. No-o makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũtigũũka!
13 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us?
Anga ti kũiganu atĩ nĩwatũrutire bũrũri warĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ ũũke ũtũũragĩre werũ-inĩ ũyũ? Rĩu ningĩ ũrenda gũtwatha?
14 Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
Ningĩ-rĩ, ndũrĩ ũratũkinyia bũrũri ũrĩ na bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ, kana ũgatũhe igai rĩa ithaka na mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ. Nĩ ũgũkũũra andũ aya maitho ũmaheenie? Aca, tũtigũũka!”
15 And Moses was very angry, and said to the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
Nake Musa akĩrakara mũno, akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Ndũgetĩkĩre maruta mao. Niĩ ndioete o na ndigiri kuuma kũrĩ o, o na ndihĩtĩirie mũndũ wao o na ũmwe.”
16 And Moses said to Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra Kora atĩrĩ, “Wee na arũmĩrĩri aku othe mũgooka mbere ya Jehova rũciũ, wee, nao, na Harũni.
17 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.
O mũndũ nĩakoya rũgĩo rwake na arwĩkĩre ũbumba, ngĩo ciothe nĩ 250, na mũcirehe mbere ya Jehova. Wee, na Harũni, o na inyuĩ mũrehe ngĩo cianyu.”
18 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense on them, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o mũndũ akĩoya rũgĩo rwake, akĩrwĩkĩra mwaki na ũbumba, na makĩrũgamania mbere ya Musa na Harũni itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
19 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the congregation.
Rĩrĩa Kora aarĩkirie gũcookereria arũmĩrĩri ake othe nĩguo makararie Musa na Harũni marũngiĩ itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo-rĩ, riiri wa Jehova ũkiumĩrĩra kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe.
20 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,
21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
“Mwĩyamũraniei na kĩũngano gĩkĩ nĩguo ndĩkĩniine o ro rĩmwe.”
22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be angry with all the congregation?
No Musa na Harũni makĩĩgũithia magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ makĩanĩrĩra makiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Ngai, Ngai wa Maroho ma andũ othe, kaĩ ũngĩrakarĩra kĩũngano gĩkĩ gĩothe hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arĩ o mũndũ ũmwe wĩhĩtie?”
23 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
24 Speak to the congregation, saying, Withdraw yourselves from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
“Ĩra kĩũngano gĩothe atĩrĩ, ‘Eherai kuuma hema-inĩ cia Kora na Dathani na Abiramu.’”
25 And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
Musa agĩũkĩra, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Dathani na Abiramu, nao athuuri a Isiraeli makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.
Nake agĩkaania kĩũngano kĩu, agĩkĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ehererai hema cia andũ aya aaganu! Mũtikahutie kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩao, nĩguo mũtikaniinwo nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao mothe.”
27 So they withdrew from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ makĩeherera hema icio cia Kora na Dathani na Abiramu. Dathani na Abiramu nĩ moimĩte makarũgama na atumia ao, na ciana cia ngenge itoonyero-inĩ rĩa hema ciao.
28 And Moses said, by this ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of my own mind.
Ningĩ Musa akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũgũtũma mũmenye atĩ Jehova nĩwe ũndũmĩte njĩke maũndũ maya mothe, na atĩ rĩtiarĩ ithugunda rĩakwa:
29 If these men shall die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD hath not sent me.
Andũ aya mangĩkua gĩkuũ kĩa ndũire-rĩ, o na kana mone maũndũ o ta marĩa makoraga andũ othe-rĩ, nĩmũkũmenya atĩ ti Jehova ũndũmĩte.
30 But if the LORD shall make a new thing, and the earth shall open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain to them, and they go down alive into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. (Sheol h7585)
No Jehova angĩrehe ũndũ ũngĩ mwerũ biũ, nayo thĩ yathamie kanua kayo ĩmamerie hamwe na indo ciao ciothe, na mathiĩ mbĩrĩra-inĩ marĩ muoyo, nĩmũkamenya atĩ andũ aya nĩ manyararĩte Jehova.” (Sheol h7585)
31 And it came to pass, as he had finished speaking all these words, that the ground opened up that was under them:
Na rĩrĩ, Musa aarĩkia kuuga ũguo wothe, thĩ ĩgĩatũka hau maarĩ.
32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained to Korah, and all their goods.
Nayo thĩ ĩgĩathamia kanua kayo ĩkĩmameria, hamwe na andũ ao na arũmĩrĩri othe a Kora, na indo ciao ciothe.
33 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. (Sheol h7585)
Nao magĩikũrũka mbĩrĩra marĩ muoyo hamwe na indo ciao ciothe; nayo thĩ ĩkĩmahumbĩra, magĩkua, magĩthengio kĩrĩndĩ-inĩ kĩu. (Sheol h7585)
34 And all Israel that were around them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
Nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩro kĩao, andũ othe a Isiraeli arĩa maamarigiicĩirie makĩũra, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “O na ithuĩ thĩ nĩĩgũtũmeria!”
35 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
Naguo mwaki ũkiuma kũrĩ Jehova ũgĩcina andũ acio 250 arĩa maarehete ũbumba.
36 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
37 Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.
“Ĩra Eleazaru mũrũ wa Harũni, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, oe ngĩo icio cia gũcinĩrwo ũbumba, acieherie hau irahĩĩra, na ahurunje makara macio handũ haraaya, nĩ ũndũ ngĩo icio nĩ nyamũre,
38 The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel.
ngĩo icio cia andũ acio makuĩte nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao. Ngĩo icio nĩiturwo ituĩke mabati ma kũhumbĩra kĩgongona, nĩ ũndũ nĩciarehetwo mbere ya Jehova, na igatuĩka nyamũre. Nacio nĩ ituĩke kĩmenyithia harĩ andũ a Isiraeli.”
39 And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, which they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Eleazaru ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akĩoya ngĩo icio cia gĩcango ciarehetwo nĩ andũ acio maacinĩtwo, nake agĩciturithia ituĩke cia kũhumbĩra kĩgongona,
40 To be a memorial to the children of Israel, that no stranger, who is not of the seed of Aaron, should come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he may not be as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.
agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩrĩire Musa. Ũndũ ũyũ warĩ wa kũririkania andũ a Isiraeli atĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ, tiga wa rũciaro rwa Harũni, wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũũka gũcina ũbumba mbere ya Jehova, kana atuĩke ta Kora na arũmĩrĩri ake.
41 But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD.
Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli gĩgĩtetia Musa na Harũni, gĩkĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩ mũũragĩte andũ a Jehova.”
42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
Na rĩrĩa kĩũngano kĩu gĩecookanĩrĩirie gĩũkĩrĩre Musa na Harũni, o na gĩkĩerekera na kũrĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo yarĩ-rĩ, o rĩmwe itu rĩkĩhumbĩra hema ĩyo, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩonekana.
43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
Nao Musa na Harũni magĩthiĩ hau mbere ya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo,
44 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
45 Remove from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
“Ehererai mume kĩũngano-inĩ gĩkĩ nĩguo ndĩkĩniine o ro rĩmwe.” No-o makĩĩgũithia thĩ, na magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ.
46 And Moses said to Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire in it from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly to the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.
Ningĩ Musa akĩĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, “Oya rũgĩo rwaku ũrwĩkĩre ũbumba hamwe na mwaki wa kuuma kĩgongona-inĩ, na ũthiĩ narua kĩũngano-inĩ kĩu ũkĩhoroherie. Mangʼũrĩ moimĩte kũrĩ Jehova; mũthiro nĩwambĩrĩirie kũmaniina.”
47 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Harũni agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Musa aamwĩrire, agĩtengʼera agĩtoonya thĩinĩ wa kĩũngano kĩu. Mũthiro nĩwarĩĩkĩtie kwambĩrĩria thĩinĩ wa andũ, no Harũni akĩruta ũbumba akĩmahoroheria.
48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
Akĩrũgama gatagatĩ ka andũ arĩa maarĩ muoyo na arĩa maakuĩte, naguo mũthiro ũgĩthira.
49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides them that died about the matter of Korah.
No andũ 14,700 magĩkua nĩ ũndũ wa mũthiro ũcio, kuonganĩrĩria na andũ arĩa maakuĩte nĩ ũndũ wa Kora.
50 And Aaron returned to Moses at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
Thuutha ũcio Harũni agĩcooka kũrĩ Musa itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, tondũ mũthiro ũcio nĩwathirĩte.
