Numbers 16
1 Lo! forsothe Chore, the sone of Isuar, sone of Caath, sone of Leuy, and Dathan and Abiron, the sones of Heliab, and Hon, the sone of Pheleph, of the sones of Ruben, rysen ayens Moises,
Kora mwana wa Ishari, mwana wa Kohathi, mwana wa Lawi, pamoja na baadhi ya Wareubeni, yaani Dathani na Abiramu, wana wa Eliabu, na Oni mwana wa Pelethi, wakachukua baadhi ya watu,
2 and othere of the sones of Israel, two hundryd men and fifti, prynces of the synagoge, and whiche weren clepid bi names in the tyme of counsel.
wakainuka dhidi ya Mose. Pamoja nao walikuwepo wanaume wa Kiisraeli 250, watu waliojulikana, viongozi wa jumuiya waliokuwa wameteuliwa kuwa wakuu wa kusanyiko.
3 And whanne `thei hadden stonde ayens Moises and Aaron, thei seiden, Suffice it to you, for al the multitude is of hooly men, and the Lord is in hem; whi ben ye reisid on the puple of the Lord?
Wakaja kama kikundi kuwapinga Mose na Aroni, wakawaambia, “Ninyi mmejitukuza sana! Kusanyiko hili lote ni takatifu, kila mmoja wao, naye Bwana yu pamoja nao. Kwa nini basi mmejitukuza wenyewe juu ya kusanyiko la Bwana?”
4 And whanne Moises hadde herd this, he felde lowe on the face.
Mose aliposikia jambo hili, akaanguka kifudifudi.
5 And he spak to Chore, and to al the multitude; he seide, Eerli the Lord schal make knowun whiche perteynen to hym, and he schal applie to hym hooli men; and thei whiche he hath chose, schulen neiye to hym.
Kisha akamwambia Kora na wafuasi wake wote: “Asubuhi Bwana ataonyesha ni nani aliye wake na ni nani aliye mtakatifu, tena atamtaka mtu huyo aje kwake. Mtu yule ambaye atamchagua atamfanya kuja karibu naye.
6 Therfor do ye this thing; ech man take his cencere, thou Chore, and al thi counsel;
Wewe Kora na wafuasi wako wote mtafanya hivi: Chukueni vyetezo,
7 and to morewe whanne fier is takun vp, putte ye encense aboue bifor the Lord, and whom euer the Lord chesith, he schal be hooli. Ye sones of Leuy ben myche reisid.
kesho wekeni moto na uvumba kwenye hivyo vyetezo mbele za Bwana. Mtu ambaye Bwana atamchagua atakuwa ndiye mtakatifu. Ninyi Walawi mmejitukuza sana!”
8 And eft Moises seide to Chore, Ye sones of Leuy, here.
Pia Mose akamwambia Kora, “Enyi Walawi! Sasa nisikilizeni.
9 Whether it is litil to you, that God of Israel departide you fro al the puple, and ioynede you to hym silf, that ye schulden serue hym in the seruyce of tabernacle, and that ye schulden stonde bifor the multitude of puple, and schulden serue hym?
Haiwatoshi ninyi kwamba Mungu wa Israeli amewateua ninyi kutoka kusanyiko lote la Kiisraeli, na kuwaleta karibu naye mpate kufanya kazi kwenye Maskani ya Bwana, na kusimama mbele ya kusanyiko ili kuwahudumia?
10 Made he therfor thee and alle thi bretheren the sones of Leuy to neiy to hym silf, that ye chalenge to you also preesthod,
Amekuleta wewe na ndugu zako Walawi mwe karibu naye, lakini sasa unajaribu kupata na ukuhani pia.
11 and al thi gaderyng togidere stonde ayens the Lord? For whi what is Aaron, that ye grutchen ayens hym?
Wewe na wafuasi wako wote mmekusanyika pamoja kinyume cha Bwana. Aroni ni nani kwamba ninyi mnungʼunike dhidi yake?”
12 Therfor Moises sente to clepe Dathan and Abiron, the sones of Heliab; whiche answeriden, We comen not.
Kisha Mose akawaita Dathani na Abiramu, wana wa Eliabu. Lakini wao wakasema, “Sisi hatuji!
13 Whethir is it litil to thee, that thou leddist vs out of the lond that flowide with mylk and hony, to sle vs in the deseert, no but also thou be lord of vs?
Haitoshi tu kwamba wewe umetuleta kutoka nchi itiririkayo maziwa na asali ili kutuua sisi jangwani? Nawe sasa pia unataka kuwa mkuu juu yetu?
14 Verili thou hast bronyt vs in to the lond that flowith with streemys of mylk and hony, and hast youe to vs possessioun of feeldis, and of vyneris; whethir also thou wolt putte out oure iyen?
Zaidi ya hayo, hujatuingiza katika nchi inayotiririka maziwa na asali, wala hujatupa urithi wa mashamba na mashamba ya mizabibu. Je, utayangʼoa macho ya watu hawa? Hapana, sisi hatuji!”
15 We comen not. And Moises was wrooth greetli, and seide to the Lord, Biholde thou not the sacrifices of hem; thou wost that Y took neuere of hem, yhe, a litil asse, nethir Y turmentide ony of hem.
Ndipo Mose akakasirika sana na kumwambia Bwana, “Usiikubali sadaka yao. Mimi sikuchukua chochote, hata punda kutoka kwao, wala sijamkosea hata mmoja wao.”
16 And Moises seide to Chore, Thou and al thi congregacioun stonde asidis half bifor the Lord, and Aaron to morewe bi hym silf.
Mose akamwambia Kora, “Wewe na wafuasi wako wote kesho mtatokea mbele za Bwana: yaani wewe na hao wenzako, pamoja na Aroni.
17 Take ye alle bi you silf youre censeris, and putte ye encense in tho, and offre ye to the Lord, tweyn hundrid and fifti censeris; and Aaron holde his censer.
Kila mtu atachukua chetezo chake na kuweka uvumba ndani yake, vyetezo 250 kwa jumla, na kukileta mbele za Bwana. Wewe na Aroni mtaleta vyetezo vyenu pia.”
18 And whanne thei hadden do this, while Moises and Aaron stoden,
Kwa hiyo kila mtu akachukua chetezo chake, akaweka moto na uvumba ndani yake, na kusimama pamoja na Mose na Aroni kwenye mlango wa Hema la Kukutania.
19 and thei hadden gaderid al the multitude to the `dore of the tabernacle ayens hem, the glorie of the Lord apperide to alle.
Kora alipokuwa amekusanya wafuasi wake wote kuwapinga Mose na Aroni kwenye mlango wa Hema la Kukutania, utukufu wa Bwana ukatokea kwa kusanyiko lote.
20 And the Lord spak to Moises and Aaron,
Bwana akamwambia Mose na Aroni,
21 and seide, Be ye departid fro the myddis of this congregacioun, that Y leese hem sodeynli.
“Jitengeni kutoka kwenye kusanyiko hili ili nipate kuwaangamiza mara moja.”
22 Whiche felden lowe on the face, and seiden, Strongeste God of the spiritis of al fleisch, whethir `thin yre schal be fers ayens alle men, for o man synneth?
Lakini Mose na Aroni wakaanguka kufudifudi na kulia kwa sauti, wakasema, “Ee Mungu, Mungu wa roho za wanadamu wote, utakuwa na hasira na kusanyiko lote wakati ni mtu mmoja tu ametenda dhambi?”
23 And the Lord seide to Moises,
Ndipo Bwana akamwambia Mose,
24 Comaunde thou to al the puple, that it be departid fro the tabernaclis of Chore, and of Dathan, and of Abiron.
“Liambie kusanyiko, ‘Ondokeni hapo karibu na mahema ya Kora, Dathani na Abiramu.’”
25 And Moises roos, and yede to Dathan and Abiron; and while the eldre men of Israel sueden hym,
Mose akainuka na kuwaendea Dathani na Abiramu, nao wazee wa Israeli wakafuatana naye.
26 he seide to the cumpeny, Go ye awey fro the tabernaclis of wickid men, and nyle ye touche tho thingis that parteynen to hem, lest ye ben wlappid in the synnes of hem.
Mose akalionya kusanyiko, “Sogeeni nyuma mbali na mahema ya hawa watu waovu! Msiguse kitu chochote kilicho mali yao, la sivyo mtafagiliwa mbali kwa sababu ya dhambi zao zote.”
27 And whanne thei hadden gon awei fro the tentis `of hem bi the cumpas, Dathan and Abiron yeden out, and stoden in the entryng of her tentis, with wyues, and fre children, and al the multitude.
Hivyo wakaondoka karibu na mahema ya Kora, Dathani na Abiramu. Dathani na Abiramu walikuwa wametoka nje, nao walikuwa wamesimama pamoja na wake zao, watoto wao na wale wanyonyao kwenye mlango wa mahema yao.
28 And Moises seide, In this ye schulen wite that the Lord sente me, that Y schulde do alle thingis whiche ye seen, and Y brouyte not forth tho of myn owne herte.
Ndipo Mose akasema, “Hivi ndivyo mtakavyojua kuwa Bwana amenituma kufanya mambo haya, na kwamba halikuwa wazo langu.
29 If thei perischen bi customable deeth of men, and wounde visite hem, bi which also othere men ben wont to be visitid,
Ikiwa watu hawa watakufa kifo cha kawaida na kupatwa na yale ya kawaida yanayowapata wanadamu, basi Bwana hakunituma mimi.
30 the Lord sente not me; but if the Lord doith a newe thing, that the erthe opene his mouth, and swolewe hem, and alle thingis that perteynen to hem, and thei goen doun quyke in to helle, ye schulen wite that thei blasfemeden the Lord. (Sheol h7585)
Lakini ikiwa Bwana ataleta jambo jipya kabisa, ardhi ikifunua kinywa chake na kuwameza wao, pamoja na kila kitu kilicho mali yao, nao washuke chini kaburini wakiwa hai, ndipo mtafahamu kuwa watu hawa wamemdharau Bwana.” (Sheol h7585)
31 Therfor anoon as he cesside to speke, the erthe was brokun vndur her feet,
Mara Mose alipomaliza kusema haya yote, ardhi iliyokuwa chini yao ikapasuka,
32 and the erthe openyde his mouth, and deuowride hem, with her tabernaclis, and al the catel `of hem;
nchi ikafunua kinywa chake na kuwameza wao, pamoja na jamaa zao, na watu wote wa Kora na mali zao zote.
33 and thei yeden doun quike in to helle, and weren hilid with erthe, and perischiden fro the myddis of the multitude. (Sheol h7585)
Wakashuka chini kaburini wakiwa hai, pamoja na kila kitu walichokuwa nacho; nchi ikajifunika juu yao, nao wakaangamia wakatoweka kutoka kusanyiko. (Sheol h7585)
34 And sotheli al Israel that stood bi the cumpas, fledde fro the cry of men perischinge, and seide, Lest perauenture the erthe swolewe also vs.
Kutoka kilio chao, Waisraeli wote waliowazunguka walikimbia, wakipaza sauti, “Nchi inatumeza na sisi pia!”
35 But also fier yede out fro the Lord, and killide tweyn hundrid and fifti men that offriden encense.
Moto ukaja kutoka kwa Bwana, ukawateketeza wale watu 250 waliokuwa wakifukiza uvumba.
36 And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide,
Bwana akamwambia Mose,
37 Comaunde thou to Eleasar, sone of Aaron, preest, that he take the censeris that liggen in the brennyng, and that he schatere the fier hidur and thidur; for tho ben halewid in the dethis of synneris;
“Mwambie Eleazari mwana wa kuhani Aroni, atoe vyetezo kwenye mabaki ya moto na kutawanya makaa mbali kiasi, kwa maana vyetezo ni vitakatifu:
38 and that he bringe forth tho in to platis, and naile to the auter, for encense is offrid in tho to the Lord, and tho ben halewid, that the sonis of Israel se tho for a signe and memorial.
vyetezo vya watu waliofanya dhambi iliyowagharimu maisha yao. Fua vyetezo hivyo kuwa bamba ili kufunika madhabahu, kwa maana vimeletwa mbele za Bwana na vimekuwa vitakatifu. Navyo viwe ishara kwa Waisraeli.”
39 Therfor Eleazar, preest, took the brasun senseris, in whiche censeris thei whiche the brennyng deuouride hadden offrid, and he `brouyt forth tho in to platis, and nailide to the auter;
Hivyo kuhani Eleazari akavikusanya vile vyetezo vya shaba vilivyoletwa na wale waliokuwa wameteketezwa kwa moto, naye akavifua kufunika madhabahu,
40 that the sones of Israel schulden haue thingis aftirward, bi whiche thei schulden remembre, lest ony alien, and which is not of the seed of Aaron, neiy to offre encense to the Lord, lest he suffre, as Chore sufferide, and al his multitude, while the Lord spak to Moises.
kama vile Bwana alivyomwelekeza kupitia Mose. Hili lilikuwa kuwakumbusha Waisraeli kwamba hakuna mtu hata mmoja, isipokuwa mzao wa Aroni, awezaye kuja kufukiza uvumba mbele za Bwana, la sivyo, angekuwa kama Kora na wafuasi wake.
41 Forsothe al the multitude of the sones of Israel grutchide in the dai suynge ayens Moises and Aaron, and seide, Ye han slayn the puple of the Lord.
Siku iliyofuata jumuiya yote ya Kiisraeli wakanungʼunika dhidi ya Mose na Aroni, wakisema, “Mmewaua watu wa Bwana.”
42 And whanne discensioun roos,
Lakini wakati kusanyiko lilipokusanyika kupingana na Mose na Aroni, nalo likageuka kuelekea Hema la Kukutania, ghafula wingu likafunika Hema, nao utukufu wa Bwana ukatokea.
43 and noise encresside, Moises and Aaron fledden to the tabernacle of the boond of pees; and aftir that thei entriden in to it, a cloude hilide the tabernacle, and the glorie of the Lord apperide.
Ndipo Mose na Aroni wakaenda mbele ya Hema la Kukutania,
44 And the Lord seide to Moises and to Aaron,
naye Bwana akamwambia Mose,
45 Go ye awey fro the myddis of this multitude, also now Y schal do awey hem. And whanne thei laien in the erthe, Moises seide to Aaron,
“Jitenge mbali na kusanyiko hili ili niweze kuwaangamiza mara moja.” Wakaanguka chini kifudifudi.
46 Take the censer, and whanne fyer is takun vp of the auter, caste encense aboue, and go soone to the puple, that thou preye for hem; for now ire is gon out fro the Lord, and the wounde is feers.
Kisha Mose akamwambia Aroni, “Chukua chetezo chako na uweke uvumba ndani yake, pamoja na moto kutoka madhabahuni, nawe uende haraka kwenye kusanyiko ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yao. Ghadhabu imekuja kutoka kwa Bwana, na tauni imeanza.”
47 And whanne Aaron hadde do this, and hadde runne to the myddis of the multitude, which the brennynge wastid thanne, he offeride encense;
Hivyo Aroni akafanya kama Mose alivyosema, akakimbilia katikati ya kusanyiko. Tauni ilikuwa tayari imeanza miongoni mwa watu, lakini Aroni akafukiza uvumba na kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yao.
48 and he stood bytwixe the deed men and lyuynge, and bisouyte for the puple, and the wounde ceesside.
Aroni akasimama kati ya waliokuwa hai na waliokufa, nayo tauni ikakoma.
49 Sotheli thei that weren smytun weren fourtene thousynde of men and seuene hundrid, with outen hem that perischiden in the discencioun of Chore.
Lakini walikufa watu 14,700 kutokana na tauni hiyo, licha ya wale waliokuwa wamekufa kwa sababu ya Kora.
50 And Aaron turnyde ayen to Moyses, to the dore of the tabernacle of boond of pees, aftir that the perischyng restide.
Ndipo Aroni akamrudia Mose kwenye mlango wa Hema la Kukutania, kwa maana tauni ilikuwa imekoma.
