< 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,
Sasa Kora mwana wa Izihari mwana wa Kohathi mwana wa Lawi, pamoja na Dathani na Abiramu mwana wa Eliabu, na Oni mwana wa Peleti, wa uzao wa Reubeni, waliwakusanya wanaume kadhaa.
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.
Wakamwinukia Musa, pamoja na wanaume fulani kutoka wana wa Israeli, viongozi wa watu wapatao mia mbili na hamsini waliokuwa wakifahamika katika ile jamii.
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?
Walikusanyika pamoja kumpinga Musa na Haruni. Wakawaambia, “Ninyi sasa mnatumia mamlaka zaidi ya uwezo wenu! Watu wote wamejitenga, kila mmoja wao, na BWANA yuko pamoja nao. Kwa nini mnajiinua sana juu ya watu wengine wa BWANA?”
4 And whanne Moises hadde herd this, he felde lowe on the face.
Musa alipoyasikia hayo, akalala 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.
Akamwambia Kora na wote aliokuwa nao, “Asubuhi BWANA atafanya ijulikane ni nani walio wake na nani aliyetengwa kwa ajili yake. Atamleta huyo mtu karibu na yeye. Yule anayemchagua atamleta karibu naye.
6 Therfor do ye this thing; ech man take his cencere, thou Chore, and al thi counsel;
Fanya hivi, wewe Kora na kundi lako.
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 mchukue vyetezo na muweke moto na ubani ndani yake mbele ya BWANA. Yule ambaye BWANA amemchagua, atamtenga kwa BWANA. Sasa imetosha ninyi watu wa uzao wa Lawi,”
8 And eft Moises seide to Chore, Ye sones of Leuy, here.
Tena Musa akamwambia Kora, “Sasa unisililize, ninyi watu wa uzao wa Lawi:
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?
Je ni jambo dogo kwenu kwamba Mngu wa mbinguni amewatenga ninyi kutoka watu wa Israeli, ili awalete ninyi karibu na yeye, ili mfanye kazi katika masikani ya BWANA na kusimama mbele ya watu ili muwatumikie?
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,
Amewasogeza karibu, na ndugu zako, wa uzao wa Lawi pamoja nanyi, na sasa mnataka na ukuhani pia!
11 and al thi gaderyng togidere stonde ayens the Lord? For whi what is Aaron, that ye grutchen ayens hym?
Hiyo ndiyo sababu wewe na kundi lako mmekusanyika pamoja kinyume na BWANA. Kwa nini mnalalamika juu ya Haruni, ambaye anamtii BWANA?”
12 Therfor Moises sente to clepe Dathan and Abiron, the sones of Heliab; whiche answeriden, We comen not.
Kisha Musa akamwita Dathani na Abiramu, wana wa Eliabu, lakini wakasema, “hatutakuja.
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?
Kwani jambo dogo kwamba umetuleta mpaka kwenye nchi inayotiririka maziwa na asali, ili kutuua katika jangwa hili? Sasa unataka kujifanya kuwa mtawala wetu!
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?
Na kwa nyongeza, haujatuingiza kwenye nchi ya kutiririka maziwa na asali, au kutupa urithi wa mashamba na mashamba ya mizabibu. Sasa unataka kutupofusha na ahadi hewa? Hatutakuja kwako.”
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.
Musa alikasirika sana na akamwambia BWANA, “Usisipokee sadaka zao. Sijachukua punda mmoja kutoka kwao, na sijamdhuru 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.
Kisha Musa akamwambia Kora, “Kesho wewe na kundi lako mtaenda mbele za BWANA-wewe na wao na Haruni.
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 mmoja wenu atatwaa chetezo na kuweka ubani ndani yake. Ndipo kila mtu atamletea BWANA chetezo chake, vyetezo mia mbili na hamsini. Wewe na Haruni, pia, kila mmoja ataleta chetezo chake.
18 And whanne thei hadden do this, while Moises and Aaron stoden,
Kwa hiyo kila mtu alitwaa chetezo chake, akaweka moto ndani yake, akaweka na ubani ndani yake, na kusimama mbele ya lango la hema ya kukutania pamoja na Musa na Haruni.
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 naye akawakusanya watu wote waliokuwa kinyume na Musa na Haruni hapo kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania, na kisha utukufu wa BWANA ukaonekana kwa watu wote.
20 And the Lord spak to Moises and Aaron,
Ndipo BWANA aliposema na Musa na Haruni:
21 and seide, Be ye departid fro the myddis of this congregacioun, that Y leese hem sodeynli.
“Tokeni ninyi kutoka hawa watu ili nipate kuwaangamiza haraka.”
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?
Musa na Haruni wakalala kifudifudi na kusema, “Mungu, Mungu wa wote wenye mwili, kama mtu akitenda dhambi, ni lazima uwe na hasira na watu wote?”
23 And the Lord seide to Moises,
BWANA akanena na Musa, akamwambia,
24 Comaunde thou to al the puple, that it be departid fro the tabernaclis of Chore, and of Dathan, and of Abiron.
“Sema na watu wote, uwaaambie, 'Tokeni kwenye hema ya Kora, Dathani, na Abiramu.'”
25 And Moises roos, and yede to Dathan and Abiron; and while the eldre men of Israel sueden hym,
Kisha Musa akaamuka akaenda kwa Dathani na Kwa Abiramu; viongozi wa Israeli wakamfuata.
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.
Akaongea na watu wote akasema, “Sasa jitengeni na hema ya hawa watu waovu na msiguse kitu chochote kilicho chao, vinginevyo mtaangamizwa na dhambi zao.”
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.
Kwa hiyo watu wote toka pande zote za hema ya Kora, Dathani na Abiramu wakaondoka. Dathani na Abiramu wakatoka nje wakasimama kwenye lango la hema zao, wakiwa na wake wao, wana, na watoto wao.
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.
Kisha Musa akasema, “Kwa hili sasa mtatambua kuwa BWANA amenituma kufanya kazi hizi zote, kwa kuwa sijazifanya kwa uwezo wangu.
29 If thei perischen bi customable deeth of men, and wounde visite hem, bi which also othere men ben wont to be visitid,
Kama hawa watu watakufa kifo cha kawaida ambacho humpata kila mmoja, basi BWANA hakunituma.
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 kama BWANA aumbaye malango ya ardhi ambayo huwameza kama mdomo mkubwa, pamoja na familia zao, na kama wataingia ndani ya shimo wakiwa hai, ndipo mtakapojua kuwa wamemdharau BWANA,” (Sheol h7585)
31 Therfor anoon as he cesside to speke, the erthe was brokun vndur her feet,
Mara ghafla Musa alipomaliza kusema maneno haya, aridhi ya pale walipokuwa ikafunguka.
32 and the erthe openyde his mouth, and deuowride hem, with her tabernaclis, and al the catel `of hem;
Dunia ikafungua makanwa yake na kuwameza, familia zao na watu wote wa Kora, pamoja 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)
Wao na kila mmoja kwenye familia zao wakaingia ndani shimoni wakiwa hai. Dunia ikwafunika, na kwa njia hii wakapotea kutoka miongoni mwa ile jamii. (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.
Nao Israeli yote waliokuwa karibu nao wakakimbia kwa sababu ya vilio vyao. Walisema kwa mshangao, “Nchi isije kutumeza na sisi!”
35 But also fier yede out fro the Lord, and killide tweyn hundrid and fifti men that offriden encense.
Kisha moto ukashuka toka kwa BWANA na kuwaangamiza wale wanaume 250 waliokuwa wametoa ubani.
36 And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide,
Tena BWANA akanena na Musa, akasema,
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 Eliazari mwana wa Haruni yule kuhani achukue vile vyetezo kutoka ule moto, kwa kuwa vile vyetezo vimetengwa ka ajili yangu. Na aumwage ule moto mbali.
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.
Vitwae vile vyetezo vya wale waliopoteza maisha yao kwa sababu ya dhambi zao. Na vifanyike kuwa mbao za kufuliwa ili viwe vifuniko vya madhabahu. Kwa kuwa wale watu walivitoa kwangu, kwa hiyo ni vitakatifu. Vitakuwa ishara ya uwepo wangu kwa wana wa Israeli.”
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;
Naye Eleazari yule kuhani akavichukue vile vyetezo vya shaba ambavyo vilikuwa vimetumiwa na wale watu walioungua, na vikafuliwa kuwa vifuniko vya madhbahu,
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.
ili kuwa ukumbusho kwa wana wa Israeli, ili kwamba asije akatokea mtu toka nje ya uzao wa Haruni akaja kutoa ubani kwa BWANA, ili wasije kuwa kama Kora na kundi lake— kama vile BWANA alivyoamuru kupitia kinywa cha Musa.
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.
Lakini siku iliyofuata asubuhi watu wa Israeli wakamlalamikia Musa na Haruni. Nao walisema, “Umeua watu wa BWANA.”
42 And whanne discensioun roos,
Kisha ikatokea, wakati watu walipokuwa wamekusanyika kinyume na Musa na Haruni, wakatazama kuielekea hema ya kukutania, na tazama lile wingu lilikuwa likiifunika. Utukufu wa BWANA ukaonekana,
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.
Musa na Haruni wakaja mbele ya hema ya kukutania.
44 And the Lord seide to Moises and to Aaron,
Kisha BWANA akanena na Musa, akamwambia,
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,
“Toka kati ya watu hawa ili niwaangamize haraka.” Musa na Haruni wakalala 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.
Musa akamwambia Haruni, uchukue chetezo, na utie ndani moto kutoka madhabahuni, tia na uvumba ndani yake, upeleke haraka kwa watu, na ukafanye upatanisho kwao, kwa sababu hasira hii inatoka kwa BWANA. 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;
Kwa hiyo Haruni akafanya kama alivyoelekezwa na Musa. Akakimbia kati ya watu. na Tauni ilikuwa imeanza kuenea kati ya watu, kwa hiyo akaweka ndani yake uvumba na akafanya upatanisho wa watu.
48 and he stood bytwixe the deed men and lyuynge, and bisouyte for the puple, and the wounde ceesside.
Haruni akasimama kati kati ya zile maiti na watu hai; na kwa njia hii ile tauni ikazuiwa.
49 Sotheli thei that weren smytun weren fourtene thousynde of men and seuene hundrid, with outen hem that perischiden in the discencioun of Chore.
Idadi ya wale waliokuwa wamekufa kwa tauni walikuwa 14, 000, nje na wale waliokufa kutokana na swala la Kora.
50 And Aaron turnyde ayen to Moyses, to the dore of the tabernacle of boond of pees, aftir that the perischyng restide.
Haruni akarudi kwa Musa kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania, na ile tauni ikakoma.
