Numbers 11
1 The people were complaining in the ears of the LORD. When the LORD heard it, his anger burnt; and the LORD’s fire burnt amongst them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
Ankyɛ biara na nnipa no fii ase nwiinwii sɛ nneɛma nkɔ yiye mma wɔn, na Awurade tee. Nʼabufuw sɔree wɔ wɔn anwiinwii no ho. Eyi nti, Awurade maa ogya bɛhyew beae a na wɔte hɔ no mfikyiri baabi.
2 The people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD, and the fire abated.
Wɔteɛteɛɛ mu frɛɛ Mose sɛ ommegye wɔn no, ɔbɔɔ mpae srɛɛ Awurade maa wɔn na ogya no dumii.
3 The name of that place was called Taberah, because the LORD’s fire burnt amongst them.
Efi saa bere no, wɔtoo beae hɔ din se Tabera a ne nkyerɛase ne “Ahyewee,” efisɛ ogya a efi Awurade nkyɛn no hyew wɔn atenae hɔ.
4 The mixed multitude that was amongst them lusted exceedingly; and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?
Misraimfo a na wɔwɔ wɔn ntam no kɔn dɔɔ nneɛma pa a na ɛwɔ Misraim no. Eyi amma Israelfo no ani ansɔ baabi a na wɔwɔ hɔ no, enti wosui se, “Hena na ɔbɛma yɛn aduan adi?
5 We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
Yɛkae nsumnam a yɛwee wɔ Misraim mpoano no. Saa ara nso na na yenya kokumba, ɛfere, gyeene ne galik di no.
6 but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna to look at.”
Nanso mprempren de, yɛn anom ato; yenhu hwee sɛ mana nko ara.”
7 The manna was like coriander seed, and it looked like bdellium.
Na mana no kɛse te sɛ wusa aba na ɛsɛ ɛhyɛ a awaawae afi dubona ho agu fam.
8 The people went around, gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it. Its taste was like the taste of fresh oil.
Nnipa no tase fii fam na wɔayam anaa wɔasiw wɔ ɔwaduru mu ma adan esiam. Wowie a, wɔnoa de bi yɛ tetare. Woka wʼano a, ɛte sɛ tetare a wɔakyew wɔ nhabamma ngo mu.
9 When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
Obosu tɔ wɔ wɔn atenae hɔ Anadwo a na mana no nso tɔ.
10 Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and the LORD’s anger burnt greatly; and Moses was displeased.
Mose tee sɛ mmusuakuw no nyinaa gyinagyina, atwa wɔn ntamadan ho ahyia resu. Eyi hyɛɛ Awurade abufuw yiye, na ɛhaw Mose nso.
11 Moses said to the LORD, “Why have you treated your servant so badly? Why haven’t I found favour in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
Mose bisaa Awurade se, “Adɛn nti na wode ɔhaw sɛɛ aba wʼakoa so? Dɛn na mayɛ atia wo a na wode saa nnipa a wɔte sɛɛ yi nyinaa adesoa abɛsoa me?
12 Have I conceived all this people? Have I brought them out, that you should tell me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which you swore to their fathers’?
Me na minyinsɛn nnipa yi nyinaa? Me na mewoo wɔn? Adɛn nti na wuse minturu wɔn wɔ me nsa so sɛ nkokoaa nkosi sɛ yebedu asase a wohyɛɛ wɔn agyanom ho bɔ no so?
13 Where could I get meat to give all these people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’
Ɛhefa na merekɔfa nam abrɛ nnipa yi? Wosu kyerɛ me se, ‘Ma yɛn nam nwe!’
14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
Me nko ara rentumi nsoa ɔman yi! Adesoa no mu yɛ duru ma me dodo!
15 If you treat me this way, please kill me right now, if I have found favour in your sight; and don’t let me see my wretchedness.”
Na sɛ saa na wo ne me bedi no de a, mesrɛ, kum me, sɛ manya wʼanim anuonyam a, na mma minnhyia mʼankasa me sɛe.”
16 The LORD said to Moses, “Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; and bring them to the Tent of Meeting, that they may stand there with you.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Frɛ Israelfo mpanyimfo no mu aduɔson ma me; fa wɔn bra Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu na wo ne wɔn nnyina hɔ.
17 I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you don’t bear it yourself alone.
Mɛba hɔ na me ne wo abɛkasa na honhom a ɛwɔ wo so no, mɛfa na mede akogu wɔn nso so bi; ɛba saa a, wɔne wo bɛsoa nnipa no adesoa sɛnea ɛrenyɛ wo nko ara wʼadesoa.
18 “Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt.” Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat.
“Ka kyerɛ nnipa no se: Munnwira mo ho na ɔkyena, mubenya nam awe. Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Awurade ate mo sufrɛ a ɛfa nneɛma a mugyaw no Misraim no ho na ɔrebɛma mo nam na mobɛwe.
19 You will not eat just one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days,
Ɛnyɛ da koro anaa nnaanu anaa nnaanum anaa nnadu anaa aduonu!
20 but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected the LORD who is amongst you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt?”’”
Na ɔsram baako mu, mobɛwe nam ara ama afono mo ama afa mo hwene mu. Efisɛ moapo Awurade a ɔka mo ho wɔ ha no, na moasu wɔ nʼanim se, adɛn nti na yefii Misraim?’”
21 Moses said, “The people, amongst whom I am, are six hundred thousand men on foot; and you have said, ‘I will give them meat, that they may eat a whole month.’
Mose kae se, “Mmarima nko ara mpem ahansia na wɔwɔ ha, ɛno na woahyɛ wɔn bɔ sɛ wobɛma wɔn nam awe ara ɔsram!
22 Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to be sufficient for them? Shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to be sufficient for them?”
Sɛ yekum nguan ne anantwi ma wɔn a ɛbɛso wɔn ana? Sɛ wɔkyere po mu nam nyinaa ma wɔn a ɛbɛso wɔn ana?”
23 The LORD said to Moses, “Has the LORD’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”
Na Awurade bisaa Mose se, “So Awurade basa yɛ tiaa dodo ana? Afei wubehu sɛ mʼasɛm yɛ nokware anaa ɛnyɛ nokware.”
24 Moses went out, and told the people the LORD’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent.
Enti Mose fii Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu hɔ kɔkaa nsɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no nyinaa kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Ɔboaboaa mpanyimfo aduɔson ano ma wotwaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no ho hyiae.
25 The LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him, and put it on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
Na Awurade nam omununkum mu baa fam ne Mose kasae, na ɔfaa honhom a ɛwɔ Mose so no de guu mpanyimfo aduɔson no so. Bere a honhom no baa wɔn so kakra no, wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm mmere tiaa bi mu.
26 But two men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the Spirit rested on them. They were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
Nanso na mpanyimfo aduɔson no mu baanu a wɔfrɛ wɔn Eldad ne Medad da so wɔ wɔn atenae hɔ. Na bere a honhom no baa wɔn so wɔ hɔ no, wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm wɔ hɔ.
27 A young man ran, and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
Mmerante bi tuu mmirika kɔbɔɔ Mose asɛm a asi no ho amanneɛ
28 Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses, forbid them!”
na Nun babarima Yosua a na wɔayi no sɛ ɔnyɛ Mose boafo no ampene so, na ɔkae se, “Me wura Mose, ma wonnyae!”
29 Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD’s people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!”
Mose bisaa no se, “Me ho na woretwe ninkunu yi? Ɛkaa me nko a, na anka Awurade nkurɔfo nyinaa yɛ adiyifo a Awurade de ne honhom agu wɔn nyinaa so!”
30 Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
Na Mose ne Israel mpanyimfo no san kɔɔ wɔn atenae hɔ.
31 A wind from the LORD went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the earth.
Na Awurade bɔɔ ahum maa ɛde mmoko fi po mu beguu atenae hɔ ne ɛho mmaa nyinaa. Baabiara a obi bɛfa no, na nnomaa yi bi atu nenam asase ani bɛyɛ anammɔn anan.
32 The people rose up all that day, and all of that night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails. He who gathered least gathered ten homers; and they spread them all out for themselves around the camp.
Enti da mu no nyinaa, nnipa kyekyeree mmoko no bi kunkum wɔn awia ne anadwo ne nʼadekyee nso. Nea wannya bi no koraa na onyaa susukoraa ɔha! Mmoko buu so wɔ atenae hɔ nyinaa.
33 While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the LORD’s anger burnt against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.
Na nnipa no fii ase wee mmoa no bi no, Awurade bo san fuw wɔn maa ɔde ɔyaredɔm kum wɔn mu fa kɛse no ara.
34 The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
Enti wɔtoo beae hɔ din se Kibrot-Hataawa a nkyerɛase ne, “Akɔnnɔ ɔda” efisɛ wɔn a na wɔn ani bere nam na wɔn kɔn adɔ Misraim tena no na wosiee wɔn wɔ hɔ.
35 From Kibroth Hattaavah the people travelled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
Ɔman no tu fii Kibrot-Hataawa hɔ kɔtenaa Haserot.
