< Numbers 11 >

1 And the people is evil, as those sighing habitually in the ears of Jehovah, and Jehovah heareth, and His anger burneth, and the fire of Jehovah burneth among them, and consumeth in the extremity of the camp.
Ankyɛre biara na nnipa no firii aseɛ nwiinwii sɛ nneɛma nkɔ yie mma wɔn, na Awurade teeɛ. Nʼabufuhyeɛ kɔɔ wɔn so wɔ wɔn anwiinwii no ho. Yei enti, Awurade maa ogya bɛhyee beaeɛ a na wɔte hɔ no mfikyire.
2 And the people cry unto Moses, and Moses prayeth unto Jehovah, and the fire is quenched;
Wɔteateaam frɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔmmɛgye wɔn. Mose bɔɔ mpaeɛ srɛɛ Awurade maa wɔn na ogya no dumiiɛ.
3 and he calleth the name of that place Taberah, for the fire of Jehovah hath 'burned' among them.
Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, wɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin sɛ Tabera a asekyerɛ ne “Ahyeɛ”, ɛfiri sɛ, ogya a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn no hyee wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ.
4 And the rabble who [are] in its midst have lusted greatly, and the sons of Israel also turn back and weep, and say, 'Who doth give us flesh?
Misraimfoɔ a na wɔwɔ wɔn ntam no kɔn dɔɔ nneɛma pa a na ɛwɔ Misraim no. Yei amma Israelfoɔ no ani ansɔ baabi a na wɔwɔ hɔ no, enti wɔsuu sɛ, “Hwan na ɔbɛma yɛn aduane adi?
5 We have remembered the fish which we do eat in Egypt for nought, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick;
Ɛberɛ a na yɛwɔ Misraim no, na yɛnya ɛnam ne nsuomnam we. Saa ara nso na na yɛnya kokumba, ɛferɛ, gyeene ne galik nso die.
6 and now our soul [is] dry, there is not anything, save the manna, before our eyes.'
Nanso, seesei deɛ, yɛn ahoɔden so ate na ɛda biara yɛnnya biribiara sɛ mana nko ara.”
7 And the manna is as coriander seed, and its aspect as the aspect of bdolach;
Na mana no kɛseɛ te sɛ wisa aba na ɛsɛ ɛhyɛ a awaawae firi dubona ho agu fam.
8 the people have turned aside and gathered [it], and ground [it] with millstones, or beat [it] in a mortar, and boiled [it] in a pan, and made it cakes, and its taste hath been as the taste of the moisture of oil.
Nnipa no tasee firi fam na wɔayam anaa wɔasi no waduro mu ama adane esiam. Wɔwie a, wɔnoa de bi yɛ taterɛ. Woka wʼano a, ɛte sɛ taterɛ a wɔakye wɔ nhahamma ngo mu.
9 And in the descending of the dew on the camp by night, the manna descendeth upon it.
Anadwo bosuo mu na mana no tɔ.
10 And Moses heareth the people weeping by its families, each at the opening of his tent, and the anger of Jehovah burneth exceedingly, and in the eyes of Moses [it is] evil.
Mose tee sɛ mmusuakuo no nyinaa gyinagyina, atwa wɔn ntomadan ho ahyia resu. Yei hyɛɛ Awurade abufuo yie. Na anyɛ Mose nso abodwo koraa.
11 And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'Why hast Thou done evil to Thy servant? and why have I not found grace in Thine eyes — to put the burden of all this people upon me?
Mose bisaa Awurade sɛ, “Adɛn enti na woyɛ me saa na wode saa nnipa a wɔte seyie yi nyinaa adesoa abɛsoa me?
12 I — have I conceived all this people? I — have I begotten it, that Thou sayest unto me, Carry it in thy bosom as the nursing father beareth the suckling, unto the ground which Thou hast sworn to its fathers?
Wɔyɛ me mma anaasɛ me nso meyɛ wɔn agya? Yei enti na wode wɔn ama me sɛ menhwɛ wɔn sɛ nkɔkoaa kɔsi sɛ yɛbɛduru asase a wohyɛɛ wɔn agyanom ho bɔ no?
13 Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give to us flesh, and we eat.
Ɛhefa na merekɔfa ɛnam abrɛ nnipa yi? Wɔsu kyerɛ me sɛ, ‘Ma yɛn ɛnam!’
14 I am not able — I alone — to bear all this people, for [it is] too heavy for me;
Mʼankasa merentumi nsoa ɔman yi! Adesoa no mu yɛ duru ma me dodo!
15 and if thus Thou art doing to me — slay me, I pray Thee; slay, if I have found grace in thine eyes, and let me not look on mine affliction.'
Na sɛ saa na wo ne me bɛdi no deɛ a, mesrɛ, kum me seesei ara; ɛbɛyɛ adom ama me! Yi me firi saa ahokyere yi mu!”
16 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Gather to Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou hast known that they are elders of the people, and its authorities; and thou hast taken them unto the tent of meeting, and they have stationed themselves there with thee,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Frɛ Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ no mu aduɔson ma me; fa wɔn bra Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu na wo ne wɔn nnyina hɔ.
17 and I have come down and spoken with thee there, and have kept back of the Spirit which [is] upon thee, and have put on them, and they have borne with thee some of the burden of the people, and thou dost not bear [it] thyself alone.
Mɛba hɔ na me ne wo abɛkasa na honhom a ɛwɔ wo so no, mɛfa na mede akɔgu wɔn nso so bi; ɛba saa a, wɔne wo bɛsoa nnipa no adesoa sɛdeɛ ɛrenyɛ wo nko ara wʼadesoa.
18 'And unto the people thou dost say, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow, and ye have eaten flesh (for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who doth give us flesh? for we [had] good in Egypt) — and Jehovah hath given to you flesh, and ye have eaten.
“Ka kyerɛ nnipa no na wɔnnwira wɔn ho na ɔkyena, wɔbɛnya ɛnam awe. Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Awurade ate mo sufrɛ a ɛfa nneɛma a mogyaa no Misraim no ho na ɔrebɛma mo ɛnam. Mobɛwe;
19 Ye do not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days; —
ɛnyɛ ɛda koro anaa nnanu anaa nnanum anaa dadu anaa adaduonu!
20 unto a month of days, till that it come out from your nostrils, and it hath become to you an abomination; because that ye have loathed Jehovah, who [is] in your midst, and weep before Him, saying, Why is this? — we have come out of Egypt!'
Na bosome baako mu, mobɛwe ɛnam ara ma apuro mo ama afa mo hwene mu. Ɛfiri sɛ, moapo Awurade a ɔka mo ho wɔ ha no, na moasu ama Misraim nso.’”
21 And Moses saith, 'Six hundred thousand footmen [are] the people in whose midst I [am]; and Thou, Thou hast said, Flesh I give to them, and they have eaten, a month of days!
Mose kaa sɛ, “Mmarima nko ara mpem ahansia na wɔwɔ ha, ɛnna woahyɛ wɔn bɔ sɛ wobɛma wɔn ɛnam awe ara bosome!
22 Is flock and herd slaughtered for them, that one hath found for them? — are all the fishes of the sea gathered for them — that one hath found for them?'
Sɛ yɛkum yɛn nnwan ne yɛn anantwie nyinaa koraa a, ɛrenso wɔn so. Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkyere ɛpo mu ɛnam nyinaa ansa na yɛatumi adi wo bɔhyɛ no so!”
23 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Is the hand of Jehovah become short? now thou dost see whether My word meeteth thee or not.'
Na Awurade bisaa Mose sɛ, “Da bɛn na meyɛɛ mmerɛ? Afei wobɛhunu sɛ mʼasɛm yɛ nokorɛ anaa ɛnyɛ nokorɛ.”
24 And Moses goeth out, and speaketh unto the people the words of Jehovah, and gathereth seventy men of the elders of the people, and causeth them to stand round about the tent,
Enti Mose firii Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no mu hɔ kɔkaa nsɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no nyinaa kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Ɔboaboaa mpanimfoɔ aduɔson ano ma wɔtwaa Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ho hyiaeɛ.
25 and Jehovah cometh down in the cloud, and speaketh unto him, and keepeth back of the Spirit which [is] on him, and putteth on the seventy men of the elders; and it cometh to pass at the resting of the Spirit on them, that they prophesy, and do not cease.
Na Awurade nam omununkum mu baa fam ne Mose kasaeɛ, na ɔfaa honhom a ɛwɔ Mose so no de guu mpanimfoɔ aduɔson no so. Ɛberɛ a honhom no baa wɔn so kakra no, wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm mmerɛ tiawa bi mu.
26 And two of the men are left in the camp, the name of the one [is] Eldad, and the name of the second Medad, and the spirit resteth upon them, (and they are among those written, and have not gone out to the tent), and they prophesy in the camp;
Nanso na mpanimfoɔ aduɔson no mu baanu a wɔfrɛ wɔn Eldad ne Medad da so wɔ wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ. Na mmerɛ a honhom no baa wɔn so wɔ hɔ no, wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm wɔ hɔ.
27 and the young man runneth, and declareth to Moses, and saith, 'Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.'
Mmeranteɛ bi tuu mmirika kɔbɔɔ Mose asɛm a asie no ho amaneɛ
28 And Joshua son of Nun, minister of Moses, [one] of his young men, answereth and saith, 'My lord Moses, restrain them.'
na Nun babarima Yosua a na wɔayi no sɛ ɔnyɛ Mose ɔboafoɔ no ampene so, na ɔkaa sɛ, “Owura, ma wɔnnyae!”
29 And Moses saith to him, 'Art thou zealous for me? O that all Jehovah's people were prophets! that Jehovah would put His Spirit upon them!'
Mose bisaa no sɛ, “Me ho na woretwe ninkunu yi? Ɛkaa me nko a, na anka Awurade nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa yɛ adiyifoɔ a Awurade de ne honhom agu wɔn nyinaa so!”
30 And Moses is gathered unto the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
Afei, Mose ne Israel mpanimfoɔ no sane kɔɔ wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ.
31 And a spirit hath journeyed from Jehovah, and cutteth off quails from the sea, and leaveth by the camp, as a day's journey here, and as a day's journey there, round about the camp, and about two cubits, on the face of the land.
Awurade bɔɔ ahum maa ɛde mmoko firi ɛpo mu bɛguu atenaeɛ hɔ ne ɛho mmaa nyinaa. Baabiara a obi bɛfa no, na nnomaa yi bi atu nenam asase ani bɛyɛ anammɔn ɛnan.
32 And the people rise all that day, and all the night, and all the day after, and gather the quails — he who hath least hath gathered ten homers — and they spread them out for themselves round about the camp.
Enti ɛda mu no nyinaa, nnipa kyekyeree mmoko no bi kunkumm wɔn awia ne anadwo ne nʼadekyeeɛ nso. Deɛ wannya bi no koraa na ɔnyaa susukora ɔha! Mmoko buu so wɔ atenaeɛ hɔ nyinaa.
33 The flesh is yet between their teeth — it is not yet cut off — and the anger of Jehovah hath burned among the people, and Jehovah smiteth among the people — a very great smiting;
Na nnipa no firii aseɛ wee mmoa no bi. Wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ weeɛ no, Awurade bo sane fuu wɔn maa ɔde ɔyaredɔm kumm wɔn mu fa kɛseɛ no ara.
34 and [one] calleth the name of that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, for there they have buried the people who lust.
Enti wɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin sɛ Kibrot-Hataawa a asekyerɛ ne, “Akɔnnɔ damena” ɛfiri sɛ, wɔn a na wɔn ani bere ɛnam na wɔn kɔn adɔ Misraim tena no na wɔsiee wɔn wɔ hɔ.
35 From Kibroth-Hattaavah have the people journeyed to Hazeroth, and they are in Hazeroth.
Ɔman no tu firii hɔ kɔtenaa Haserot kakra.
