< Numbers 16 >

1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took some men.
Inge Korah wen natul Izhar ke sou lulap lal Kohath in sruf lal Levi, welul Dathan ac Abiram (wen luo natul Eliab) oayapa On (wen natul Peleth) su mwet ke sruf lal Reuben, elos eis
2 They rose up before Moses, with some of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown.
luofoko lumngaul mukul, mwet na eteyuk su solla in mwet kol lun mwet Israel, na elos tuyang nu sel Moses.
3 They assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, “You take too much on yourself, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and the LORD is amongst them! Why do you lift yourselves up above the LORD’s assembly?”
Elos toeni ye mutal Moses ac Aaron ac fahk nu seltal, “Komtal arulana alukela! Mwet Israel nukewa ma lun LEUM GOD, ac El wi kut nukewa. Na efu komtal ku sifacna oru komtal in fulat liki un mwet lun LEUM GOD?”
4 When Moses heard it, he fell on his face.
Ke Moses el lohng kas inge, el putati nu infohk uh ac pre.
5 He said to Korah and to all his company, “In the morning, the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him. Even him whom he shall choose, he will cause to come near to him.
Na el fahk nu sel Korah ac mwet welul uh, “Lututang LEUM GOD El ac fah akkalemye nu sesr lah su kac mwet lal uh. Mwet se ma mutal su El sulela, pa God El ac fah lela in kalukyang nu yorol nu ke loang uh.
6 Do this: have Korah and all his company take censers,
Korah ac mwet nukewa in u lom uh, pa inge ma kowos in oru: us pan in neinyuk mulut firir,
7 put fire in them, and put incense on them before the LORD tomorrow. It shall be that the man whom the LORD chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!”
ac lutu, filiya e nu loac ac likiya mwe keng nu fac ye mutun LEUM GOD. Na kut ac fah liye lah su kac sesr pa suleyukla sin LEUM GOD. Kowos mwet Levi pa arulana alukela!”
8 Moses said to Korah, “Hear now, you sons of Levi!
Na Moses el sifil kaskas nu sel Korah. “Kowos mwet Levi, porongeyu!
9 Is it a small thing to you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the LORD’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
Ya kowos nunku mu ma pilasr se suwos tuh LEUM GOD El srikowosla liki mwet Israel nukewa tuh kowos in ku in kalukyang nu yorol in oru ma kunowos in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sel, ac tuyak ye mutun mwet Israel wiowos in kulansupwalos?
10 and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? Do you seek the priesthood also?
El oru tuh kom ac mwet Levi nukewa saya in oru kunokon fulat se inge, a inge kowos srike in eis pac wal lun mwet tol!
11 Therefore you and all your company have gathered together against the LORD! What is Aaron that you complain against him?”
Ke kowos torkaskas lainul Aaron, pwayena lah kom ac mwet wi kom uh tunyuna lain LEUM GOD.”
12 Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, “We won’t come up!
Na Moses el sapla solal Dathan ac Abiram, a eltal fahk mu, “Kut ac tia fahsrot!
13 Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?
Mea, tia fal ke kom uskutme liki facl na mut ac kasrup fohk we Egypt, in tuh unikuti inge yen mwesis? Ya kom ac orekma in funmweti kut pac?
14 Moreover you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We won’t come up.”
Kalem na lah tiana facl wowo se pa kom uskutme nu we inge, ac wangin pac acn in ima, ku ima in grape, kom se lasr, a inge kom srike in kiapwekut pac. Kut ac tiana fahsrot!”
15 Moses was very angry, and said to the LORD, “Don’t respect their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.”
Moses el kasrkusrakak ac fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, “Nimet kom eis kutena mwe kisa ma mwet inge ac fah use. Wanginna ma nga oru koluk nu selos — finne donkey soko natulos, nga tiana eis.”
16 Moses said to Korah, “You and all your company go before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow.
Moses el fahk nu sel Korah, “Lutu kom, ac mwet luofoko lumngaul ma wi kom an, in tuku nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD. Aaron el ac wi pac muta we.
17 Each man take his censer and put incense on it, and each man bring before the LORD his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each with his censer.”
Kais sie suwos fah us pan in neinyuk mulut firir lal, filiya mwe keng fac, na kisakin nu sin LEUM GOD ke loang uh.”
18 They each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.
Ouinge mwet nukewa elos us pan in neinyuk mulut lalos, sang mulut firir nu loac ac mwe keng nu fac, ac welul Moses ac Aaron tu ke nien utyak nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.
19 Korah assembled all the congregation opposite them to the door of the Tent of Meeting. The LORD’s glory appeared to all the congregation.
Na Korah el pangoneni mwet Israel nukewa, ac elos tu ngetang nu sel Moses ac Aaron ke nien utyak nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal. In kitin pacl ah, kalem wolana lun LEUM GOD sikyak nu sin mwet nukewa.
20 The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,
21 “Separate yourselves from amongst this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!”
“Kiluki liki mwet inge, ac nga fah kunauselosla ingena.”
22 They fell on their faces, and said, “God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?”
Tusruktu Moses ac Aaron faksufi ac fahk, “O God, moul lun ma nukewa tuku sum me. Mwet sefanna fin oru ma koluk, ya kom ac kasrkusrak sin mwet nukewa in acn sac?”
23 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
24 “Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!’”
“Fahkang nu sin mwet ingan in kalukla liki lohm nuknuk sel Korah, Dathan, ac Abiram.”
25 Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
Na Moses, ac mwet kol lun Israel elos tukeni som nu yorol Dathan ac Abiram.
26 He spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins!”
El fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Kalukot liki lohm nuknuk sin mwet koluk inge, ac nikmet kahlye kutena ma lalos. Kowos fin tia lohng, kowos ac welulos na sikiyukla ke ma koluk nukewa lalos.”
27 So they went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents with their wives, their sons, and their little ones.
Ouinge elos kalukla liki lohm nuknuk sel Korah, Dathan, ac Abiram. Dathan ac Abiram ilme ac tu ke mutunoa in lohm nuknuk selos, wi mutan kialos ac tulik natulos.
28 Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind.
Moses el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Pa inge ma ac akkalemye nu suwos lah LEUM GOD pa supweyume in oru ma inge nukewa, ac nga tia oru ke lungse luk sifacna.
29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they experience what all men experience, then the LORD hasn’t sent me.
Mwet inge fin misa ke pacl fal la ac tia ke sripen kalyei sin God me, na kalem lah tia LEUM GOD pa supweyume uh.
30 But if the LORD makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up with all that belong to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall understand that these men have despised the LORD.” (Sheol h7585)
Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fin orala sie ouiya na sasu, ac infohk uh mangelik ac okomulosla wi ma lalos nukewa, ac elos moul na tili nu in facl lun mwet misa, na kowos fah etu lah mwet inge pilesru LEUM GOD.” (Sheol h7585)
31 As he finished speaking all these words, the ground that was under them split apart.
El tufahna fahkla ma inge, na infohk uh srasrelik yal Dathan ac Abiram
32 The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with their households, all of Korah’s men, and all their goods.
ac okomulosla wi sou lalos, oayapa mwet nukewa ma welul Korah wi ma lalos nukewa.
33 So they, and all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol. The earth closed on them, and they perished from amongst the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
Ouinge elos moul na tilla nu in facl lun mwet misa, wi ma lalos nukewa. Na infohk uh folokeni nu faclos, ac elos wanginla. (Sheol h7585)
34 All Israel that were around them fled at their cry; for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up!”
Mwet Israel nukewa ma oasr we elos kaing ke elos lohng pusren tung lalos. Elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Kaing! Faclu ac ukumkuti pac!”
35 Fire came out from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men who offered the incense.
Na LEUM GOD El supweya e se ac esukla mwet luofoko lumngaul su kisakin mwe keng uh.
36 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
37 “Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire away from the camp; for they are holy,
“Fahk nu sel Eleazar wen natul Aaron mwet tol, elan eisla pan in neinyuk mulut, ma orekla ke bronze, liki mwet firiryak misa uh, ac sisalik mulut liki pan uh nu ke sie pacna acn, mweyen pan inge mutal.
38 even the censers of those who sinned against their own lives. Let them be beaten into plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the LORD. Therefore they are holy. They shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
Pan uh tuh akmutalyeyukla ke pacl se utuku nu ke loang lun LEUM GOD. Ke ma inge eis pan lun mwet inge su anwuki ke sripen koluk lalos, ac tuktukya in mininila, ac orala sie mwe afyuf nu ke loang uh kac. Ma inge ac fah mwe akul nu sin mwet Israel.”
39 Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which those who were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
Ouinge Eleazar mwet tol el orani pan uh ac sap tuktuki nwe ke mininila in orala sie mwe afyuf nu ke loang uh.
40 to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger who isn’t of the offspring of Aaron, would come near to burn incense before the LORD, that he not be as Korah and as his company; as the LORD spoke to him by Moses.
Ma se inge mwe sensenkakin mwet Israel lah wangin kutena mwet sayen mwet ke fwilin tulik natul Aaron fah kalukyang nu ke loang uh in akosak mwe keng nu sin LEUM GOD. Mwet se fin tia akos, na ac anwuki el oana Korah ac mwet lal. Ma inge nukewa orekla oana LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Eleazar sel Moses.
41 But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have killed the LORD’s people!”
Len tok ah mwet Israel nukewa torkaskas lainul Moses ac Aaron ac fahk, “Komtal uniya kutu sin mwet lun LEUM GOD.”
42 When the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, they looked towards the Tent of Meeting. Behold, the cloud covered it, and the LORD’s glory appeared.
Tukun mwet uh tukeni in lainul Moses ac Aaron, eltal ngetla nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal ac liye lah pukunyeng sac afunla Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, ac kalem wolana lun LEUM GOD sikyak pac we.
43 Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
Moses ac Aaron som ac tu mutun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal,
44 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
45 “Get away from amongst this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!” They fell on their faces.
“Kaluki liki mwet inge, ac nga fah kunauselosla in acn se na elos tu we an!” Eltal tukeni faksufi,
46 Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, put fire from the altar in it, lay incense on it, carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the LORD! The plague has begun.”
na Moses el fahk nu sel Aaron, “Us pan in neinyuk e lom an, sang kutu mulut firir liki loang uh nu loac, ac sang kutu mwe keng nu fin mulut uh, na sulaklak usla nu yurin mwet uh ac oru alu in aknasnas kaclos. Aksaye! Kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD tayak tari, ac sie mas na upa mutawauk pac tari.”
47 Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the middle of the assembly. The plague had already begun amongst the people. He put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
Aaron el akos. El eis pan in e lal ac kasrla nu inmasrlon mwet uh. Ke el liye lah mas keok sac mutawauk tari, el sang mwe keng nu fin mulut uh ac oru alu in aknasnas ke mwet uh.
48 He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
Ma inge tulokinya mas keok sac, ac el mukena tu inmasrlon mwet moul ac mwet misa.
49 Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, in addition to those who died about the matter of Korah.
Pisen mwet ma misa uh oasr ke mwet singoul akosr tausin itfoko, tia oaoa elos su misa ke pacl in tunyuna lal Korah.
50 Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and the plague was stopped.
Ke pacl se mas keok sac tui, Aaron el folokla nu yorol Moses nu ke mutunoa lun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.
