Numbers 14
1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
Igitur vociferans omnis turba flevit nocte illa,
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said to them, O that we had died in the land of Egypt! or O that we had died in this wilderness!
et murmurati sunt contra Moysen et Aaron cuncti filii Israel, dicentes:
3 And why hath the LORD brought us to this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?
Utinam mortui essemus in Aegypto: et in hac vasta solitudine utinam pereamus, et non inducat nos Dominus in Terram istam, ne cadamus gladio, et uxores ac liberi nostri ducantur captivi. Nonne melius est reverti in Aegyptum?
4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
Dixeruntque alter ad alterum: Constituamus nobis ducem, et revertamur in Aegyptum.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
Quo audito Moyses et Aaron ceciderunt proni in terram coram omni multitudine filiorum Israel.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, [who were] of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
At vero Iosue filius Nun, et Caleb filius Iephone, qui et ipsi lustraverant terram, sciderunt vestimenta sua,
7 And they spoke to all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, [is] an exceeding good land.
et ad omnem multitudinem filiorum Israel locuti sunt: Terra, quam circuivimus, valde bona est.
8 If the LORD delighteth in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it to us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.
si propitius fuerit Dominus, inducet nos in eam, et tradet humum lacte et melle manantem.
9 Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they [are] bread for us: their defense has departed from them, and the LORD [is] with us: fear them not.
Nolite rebelles esse contra Dominum: neque timeatis populum terrae huius, quia sicut panem ita eos possumus devorare. recessit ab eis omne praesidium: Dominus nobiscum est, nolite metuere.
10 But all the congregation required to stone them with stones: and the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.
Cumque clamaret omnis multitudo, et lapidibus eos vellet opprimere, apparuit gloria Domini super tectum foederis cunctis videntibus filiis Israel.
11 And the LORD said to Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shown among them?
Et dixit Dominus ad Moysen: Usquequo detrahet mihi populus iste? Quousque non credent mihi in omnibus signis, quae feci coram eis?
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.
Feriam igitur eos pestilentia, atque consumam: te autem faciam principem super gentem magnam, et fortiorem quam haec est.
13 And Moses said to the LORD, Then the Egyptians will hear [it], (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them; )
Et ait Moyses ad Dominum: Ut audiant Aegyptii, de quorum medio eduxisti populum istum,
14 And they will tell [it] to the inhabitants of this land: [for] they have heard that thou LORD [art] among this people, that thou LORD art seen face to face, and [that] thy cloud standeth over them, and [that] thou goest before them, by day-time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
et habitatores Terrae huius, qui audierunt quod tu Domine in populo isto sis, et facie videaris ad faciem, et nubes tua protegat illos, et in columna nubis praecedas eos per diem, et in columna ignis per noctem:
15 Now [if] thou shalt kill [all] this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,
quod occideris tantam multitudinem quasi unum hominem, et dicant:
16 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land which he swore to them, therefore he hath slain them in the wilderness.
Non poterat introducere populum in Terram, pro qua iuraverat: idcirco occidit eos in solitudine.
17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my LORD be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
Magnificetur ergo fortitudo Domini sicut iurasti, dicens:
18 The LORD [is] long-suffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth [generation].
Dominus patiens et multae misericordiae, auferens iniquitatem et scelera, nullumque innoxium derelinquens, qui visitas peccata patrum in filios in tertiam et quartam generationem.
19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt, even until now.
Dimitte, obsecro, peccatum populi tui huius secundum magnitudinem misericordiae tuae, sicut propitius fuisti egredientibus de Aegypto usque ad locum istum.
20 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word:
Dixitque Dominus: Dimisi iuxta verbum tuum.
21 But [as] truly [as] I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD.
Vivo ego: et implebitur gloria Domini universa terra.
22 Because all those men who have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;
Attamen omnes homines qui viderunt maiestatem meam, et signa quae feci in Aegypto et in solitudine, et tentaverunt me iam per decem vices, nec obedierunt voci meae,
23 Surely they shall not see the land which I swore to their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:
non videbunt Terram pro qua iuravi patribus eorum, nec quisquam ex illis qui detraxit mihi, intuebitur eam.
24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land into which he went; and his seed shall possess it.
Servum meum Caleb, qui plenus alio spiritu secutus est me, inducam in Terram hanc, quam circuivit: et semen eius possidebit eam.
25 (Now the Amalekites, and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) To-morrow turn you, and pass into the wilderness, by the way of the Red sea.
Quoniam Amalecites et Chananaeus habitant in vallibus. Cras movete castra, et revertimini in solitudinem per viam Maris rubri.
26 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
27 How long [shall I bear with] this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
Usquequo multitudo haec pessima murmurat contra me? querelas filiorum Israel audivi.
28 Say to them, [As truly as] I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you:
Dic ergo eis: Vivo ego, ait Dominus: sicut locuti estis audiente me, sic faciam vobis.
29 Your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me,
In solitudine hac iacebunt cadavera vestra. Omnes qui numerati estis a viginti annis et supra, et murmurastis contra me,
30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land [concerning] which I swore to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
non intrabitis Terram, super quam levavi manum meam ut habitare vos facerem, praeter Caleb filium Iephone, et Iosue filium Nun.
31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.
Parvulos autem vestros, de quibus dixistis quod praedae hostibus forent, introducam: ut videant Terram, quae vobis displicuit.
32 But [as for] you, your carcasses, they shall fall in this wilderness.
Vestra cadavera iacebunt in solitudine.
33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your lewd deeds, until your carcasses shall be wasted in the wilderness.
Filii vestri erunt vagi in deserto annis quadraginta, et portabunt fornicationem vestram, donec consumantur cadavera patrum in deserto,
34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, [even] forty days (each day for a year) shall ye bear your iniquities, [even] forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
iuxta numerum quadraginta dierum, quibus considerastis Terram: annus pro die imputabitur. Et quadraginta annis recipietis iniquitates vestras, et scietis ultionem meam:
35 I the LORD have said, I will surely do it to all this evil congregation, that are gathered against me: in this wilderness, they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
quoniam sicut locutus sum, ita faciam omni multitudini huic pessimae, quae consurrexit adversum me: in solitudine hac deficiet, et morietur.
36 And the men whom Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing a slander upon the land,
Igitur omnes viri, quos miserat Moyses ad contemplandam Terram, et qui reversi murmurare fecerant contra eum omnem multitudinem, detrahentes Terrae quod esset mala,
37 Even those men that brought the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
mortui sunt atque percussi in conspectu Domini.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, [who were] of the men that went to search the land, lived [still].
Iosue autem filius Nun, et Caleb filius Iephone vixerunt ex omnibus, qui perrexerant ad considerandam Terram.
39 And Moses told these sayings to all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.
Locutusque est Moyses universa verba haec ad omnes filios Israel, et luxit populus nimis.
40 And they rose early in the morning, and ascended to the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we [are here], and will go up to the place which the LORD hath promised: for we have sinned.
Et ecce mane primo surgentes ascenderunt verticem montis, atque dixerunt: Parati sumus ascendere ad locum, de quo Dominus locutus est: quia peccavimus.
41 And Moses said, Why now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper.
Quibus Moyses: Cur, inquit, transgredimini verbum Domini, quod vobis non cedet in prosperum?
42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.
Nolite ascendere: non enim est Dominus vobiscum: ne corruatis coram inimicis vestris.
43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites [are] there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the LORD, therefore the LORD will not be with you.
Amalecites et Chananaeus ante vos sunt, quorum gladio corruetis, eo quod nolueritis acquiescere Domino, nec erit Dominus vobiscum.
44 But they presumed to go up to the hill-top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.
At illi contenebrati ascenderunt in verticem montis. Arca autem testamenti Domini et Moyses non recesserunt de castris.
45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, [even] to Hormah.
Descenditque Amalecites et Chananaeus, qui habitabat in monte: et percutiens eos atque concidens, persecutus est eos usque Horma.
