Numbers 14
1 All the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
Halkan sana namoonni waldaa sanaa hundinuu sagalee isaanii ol fudhatanii booʼan.
2 All the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron. The whole congregation said to them, “We wish that we had died in the land of Egypt, or that we had died in this wilderness!
Israaʼeloonni hundinuu Musee fi Aroonitti guunguman; waldaan guutuunis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Nu utuu biyyuma Gibxitti dhumnee jiraannee! Yookaan utuu gammoojjii kana keessatti dhumnee jiraannee!
3 Why does Yahweh bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be captured or killed! Wouldn’t it be better for us to return into Egypt?”
Waaqayyo maaliif akka nu goraadeedhaan dhumnuuf jedhee biyya kanatti nu fida? Niitonni keenyaa fi ijoolleen keenya ni boojiʼamu. Biyya Gibxitti deebiʼuun nuu hin wayyuu?”
4 They said to one another, “Let’s choose a leader, and let’s return into Egypt.”
Isaanis, “Amma hoogganaa filannee biyya Gibxitti haa deebinu” waliin jedhan.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
Kana irratti Musee fi Aroon fuula guutummaa yaaʼii Israaʼel kanneen achitti walitti qabamanii duratti addaan lafatti gombifaman.
6 Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who spied out the land, tore their clothes.
Jarreen biyyattii keessa deemanii basaasan keessaa Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuuniitii fi Kaaleb ilmi Yefunee uffata ofii tarsaasanii,
7 They spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, “The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceedingly good land.
guutummaa yaaʼii Israaʼelootaatiin akkana jedhan; “Biyyi nu keessa deemnee basaasne sun akka malee gaarii dha.
8 If Yahweh delights in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it to us: a land which flows with milk and honey.
Waaqayyo yoo nutti gammade biyya sanatti nu galchee biyyattii aannanii fi damma baaftu sana nuu kenna.
9 Only don’t rebel against Yahweh, neither fear the people of the land; for they are bread for us. Their defense is removed from over them, and Yahweh is with us. Don’t fear them.”
Isin garuu Waaqayyotti hin fincilinaa. Waan nu isaan lilliqimsinuuf namoota biyya sanaa hin sodaatinaa. Gaaddisni isaan irraa kaʼeera; Waaqayyo nu wajjin jira. Isaan hin sodaatinaa.”
10 But all the congregation threatened to stone them with stones. Yahweh’s glory appeared in the Tent of Meeting to all the children of Israel.
Waldaan guutuun garuu dhagaan isaan tumuudhaaf mariʼate. Ulfinni Waaqayyoos fuula dunkaana wal gaʼii duratti Israaʼeloota hundatti mulʼate.
11 Yahweh said to Moses, “How long will this people despise me? How long will they not believe in me, for all the signs which I have worked among them?
Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Sabni kun hamma yoomiitti akkana na tuffata? Utuma ani mallattoowwan kanneen hunda gidduu isaaniitti hojjedhuu isaan hamma yoomiitti na amanuu didu?
12 I will strike them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they.”
Ani golfaadhaan dhaʼee isaan nan balleessa; siʼi garuu saba isaan caalaa guddaa fi jabaa sin godha.”
13 Moses said to Yahweh, “Then the Egyptians will hear it; for you brought up this people in your might from among them.
Museen Waaqayyoon akkana jedhe; “Warri Gibxi waaʼee waan kanaa ni dhagaʼu! Ati humna keetiin saba kana gidduu isaaniitii baaftee fiddeertaatii.
14 They will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that you Yahweh are among this people; for you Yahweh are seen face to face, and your cloud stands over them, and you go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.
Isaanis waaʼee waan kanaa saba biyya sana keessa jiraatutti ni odeessu. Yaa Waaqayyo, isaan akka ati saba kana gidduu jirtu dhagaʼaniiru; yaa Waaqayyo isaan akka ati fuuluma isaaniitti mulʼatu, akka duumassi kee isaaniin ol jiruu fi akka ati guyyaa utubaa duumessaatiin, halkan immoo utubaa ibiddaatiin isaan dura deemtu dhagaʼanii jiru.
15 Now if you killed this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of you will speak, saying,
Yoo ati saba kana yeruma tokkotti barbadeessite, saboonni oduu waaʼee keetii dhagaʼan,
16 ‘Because Yahweh was not able to bring this people into the land which he swore to them, therefore he has slain them in the wilderness.’
‘Waaqayyo biyya kakuudhaan waadaa isaaniif gale sanatti saba kana galchuu hin dandeenye; inni kanumaaf gammoojjii keessatti isaan gogorraʼe’ jedhu.
17 Now please let the power of the Lord be great, according as you have spoken, saying,
“Egaa akkuma ati akkana jettee dubbatte sanatti jabinni Gooftaa haa argisiifamu:
18 ‘Yahweh is slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, forgiving iniquity and disobedience; and he will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation.’
‘Waaqayyo dafee hin aaru; jaalalli isaa immoo guddaa dha; inni cubbuu fi fincila namaaf dhiisa. Taʼu illee inni nama yakka hojjetu adabu malee hin dhiisu; inni hamma dhaloota sadaffaa fi afuraffaatti sababii cubbuu abbootii isaaniitiif jedhee ijoollee ni adaba.’
19 Please pardon the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of your loving kindness, and just as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.”
Akkuma yeroo isaan biyya Gibxii baʼanii jalqabdee hamma ammaatti dhiifama isaaniif goote sana akkuma jaalala kee guddaa sanaatti cubbuu saba kanaa dhiisiif.”
20 Yahweh said, “I have pardoned according to your word;
Waaqayyo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Ani akkuma ati kadhatte sana isaaniif dhiiseera.
21 but in very deed—as I live, and as all the earth shall be filled with Yahweh’s glory—
Taʼu illee akkuma ani dhugumaan jiraataa taʼee fi akkuma ulfinni Waaqayyoo dhugumaan lafa hunda guute sana,
22 because all those men who have seen my glory and my signs, which I worked in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have tempted me these ten times, and have not listened to my voice;
namoota ulfina koo arganii, mallattoowwan ani biyya Gibxiitii fi gammoojjii keessatti hojjedhe arganii garuu naa ajajamuu didanii yeroo kudhan na qoran sana keessaa namni tokko iyyuu,
23 surely they shall not see the land which I swore to their fathers, neither shall any of those who despised me see it.
tokkoon isaanii biyya ani kakuudhaan abbootii isaaniitiif waadaa gale sana hin argan. Namni na tuffate tokko biyya sana hin argu.
24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him I will bring into the land into which he went. His offspring shall possess it.
Garbicha koo Kaaleb garuu sababii inni hafuura addaa qabuu fi sababii garaa guutuudhaan na duukaa buʼaa jiruuf, ani biyya inni dhaqe sanatti isa galcha; sanyiin isaas biyya sana ni dhaala.
25 Since the Amalekite and the Canaanite dwell in the valley, tomorrow turn and go into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.”
Sababii Amaaleqoonnii fi Kanaʼaanonni Sululoota keessa jiraataniif, isin bor deebiʼaatii karaa Galaana Diimaatiin gammoojjiitti qajeelaa.”
26 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Waaqayyo Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe:
27 “How long shall I bear with this evil congregation that complain against me? I have heard the complaints of the children of Israel, which they complain against me.
“Waldaan hamaan kun hamma yoomiitti natti guunguma? Ani guungummii Israaʼeloota guungumtoota sanaa dhagaʼeera.
28 Tell them, ‘As I live, says Yahweh, surely as you have spoken in my ears, so I will do to you.
Akkana jedhii isaanitti himi; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ani jiraataadhaatii, akkuma isin gurra kootti dubbattan sana anis isinitti godha:
29 Your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness; and all who were counted of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have complained against me,
Reeffi keessan jechuunis reeffi warra umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi digdamaa olii kanneen lakkoobsa uummataa keessatti lakkaaʼamanii natti guunguman hundaa gammoojjii kana keessatti harcaʼee hafa.
30 surely you shall not come into the land concerning which I swore that I would make you dwell therein, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
Kaaleb ilma Yefuneetii fi Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni malee tokkoon keessan iyyuu biyya ani keessa isin qubachiisuuf kakadhe sanatti hin galtan.
31 But I will bring in your little ones that you said should be captured or killed, and they shall know the land which you have rejected.
Ani garuu ijoollee keessan warra isin ni boojiʼamu jettan sana itti nan galcha; isaanis biyya isin tuffattan sana ni beeku.
32 But as for you, your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness.
Isin garuu, reeffi keessan gammoojjuma kana keessatti harcaʼa.
33 Your children shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your prostitution, until your dead bodies are consumed in the wilderness.
Ijoolleen keessan waggaa afurtama gammoojjii kana keessa ni jooru; hamma isin hundi gammoojjii keessatti dhumtanitti isaan sababii amanamummaa dhabuu keessaniitiif achitti rakkatu.
34 After the number of the days in which you spied out the land, even forty days, for every day a year, you will bear your iniquities, even forty years, and you will know my alienation.’
Isin akkuma bultii afurtama biyya sana basaastan, akkasuma bultiin tokko akka waggaa tokkootti lakkaaʼamee waggaa afurtama cubbuu keessaniif dhiphattu; yeroo sana isin akka ani isiniin mormu ni beektu.’
35 I, Yahweh, have spoken. I will surely do this to all this evil congregation who are gathered together against me. In this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.”
Ani Waaqayyo waan kana dubbadheen jira; ani dhugumaan waan kana waldaa hamaa naan mormuuf walitti gurmaaʼe kana guutuutti nan fida. Isaan gammoojjii kana keessatti dhumu; asumattis ni duʼu.”
36 The men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned and made all the congregation to murmur against him by bringing up an evil report against the land,
Namoonni Museen akka isaan biyyattii basaasaniif erge yommuu achii deebiʼanitti waaʼee biyya sanaa gabaasa hamaa waldaatti gabaasanii akka waldaan Museetti guungumu godhan jechuunis
37 even those men who brought up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before Yahweh.
namoonni waaʼee biyyattii gabaasa hamaa gabaasuutti gaafataman sun dhaʼichaan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhuman.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive of those men who went to spy out the land.
Namoota biyyattii basaasuu dhaqan keessaa Iyyaasuu ilma Nuunitii fi Kaaleb ilma Yefunee qofatu duʼa oole.
39 Moses told these words to all the children of Israel, and the people mourned greatly.
Museen waan kana hunda Israaʼelootatti himnaan isaan akka malee booʼan.
40 They rose up early in the morning and went up to the top of the mountain, saying, “Behold, we are here, and will go up to the place which Yahweh has promised; for we have sinned.”
Isaanis guyyaa itti aanu ganamaan fiixee biyya gaaraatti ol baʼanii, “Nu cubbuu hojjenneerra; nu amma gara lafa Waaqayyo waadaa nuu gale sanaa dhaqna” jedhan.
41 Moses said, “Why now do you disobey the commandment of Yahweh, since it shall not prosper?
Museen garuu akkana jedhe; “Isin maaliif ajaja Waaqayyoo cabsitu? Wanni kun isiniif hin milkaaʼu!
42 Don’t go up, for Yahweh isn’t among you; that way you won’t be struck down before your enemies.
Akka diinota keessaniin hin moʼatamneef ol hin baʼinaa; Waaqayyo isin wajjin hin jiruutii;
43 For there the Amalekite and the Canaanite are before you, and you will fall by the sword because you turned back from following Yahweh; therefore Yahweh will not be with you.”
Amaaleqoonnii fi Kanaʼaanonni achitti isinitti dhufuutii. Sababii isin Waaqayyo irraa garagaltaniif inni isin wajjin hin jiraatu; goraadeedhaan barbadeeffamtu.”
44 But they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain. Nevertheless, the ark of Yahweh’s covenant and Moses didn’t depart out of the camp.
Isaan garuu utuu Musee fi taabonni kakuu Waaqayyoo qubata keessaa gad hin baʼin yaaduma isaaniitiin kaʼanii fiixee biyya gaaraatti ol baʼan.
45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites who lived in that mountain, and struck them and beat them down even to Hormah.
Yommus Amaaleqoonnii fi Kanaʼaanonni gaara sana irra jiraatan gad buʼanii isaan dhaʼanii hamma Hormaatti isaan ariʼan.
