Mose 4 11
1 Ameawo de asi liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ me le woƒe fukpekpewo katã ta. Yehowa see, eye wòdo dɔmedzoe ɖe wo ŋu le woƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ ta. Ale Yehowa ƒe dzo de asi ame siwo le asaɖa la ƒe mlɔenu la tsɔtsrɔ̃ me.
And the people murmured sinfully before the Lord; and the Lord heard [them] and was very angry; and fire was kindled among them from the Lord, and devoured a part of the camp.
2 Wodo ɣli na Mose be wòaxɔ na yewo. Esi Mose do gbe ɖa na Yehowa ɖe wo ta la, dzo la tsi.
And the people cried to Moses: and Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire was quenched.
3 Tso ɣe ma ɣi dzi la, wona ŋkɔ teƒe la be “Dzobiteƒe,” elabena dzo tso Yehowa gbɔ bi le ameawo dome le afi ma.
And the name of that place was called Burning; for a fire was kindled among them from the Lord.
4 Nuɖuɖu bubuwo de asi yakame siwo le wo dome la dzodzro me, eye Israelviwo gade asi liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ me hegblɔna be, “Ne míakpɔ lã aɖu ko!
And the mixed multitude among them lusted exceedingly; and they and the children of Israel sat down and wept and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
5 Míeɖo ŋku tɔmelã siwo míeɖu le Egipte femaxee kple dzamatre, aɖiba, agumetaku, sabala kple ayo dzi.
We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt freely; and the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the garlic, and the onions.
6 Ke fifia la, míegakpɔa nu siawo o; mana ko míeɖuna gbe sia gbe!”
But now our soul is dried up; our eyes [turn] to nothing but to the manna.
7 Mana la le ɣie abe bliku ene gake ele gbadzɛe, eye wòvivina abe anyitsibolo ene.
And the manna is as coriander seed, and the appearance of it the appearance of hoarfrost.
8 Ameawo fɔnɛ le anyigba, tonɛ le to me, ɖanɛ eye wòwɔa tatalĩ si vivina abe tatalĩ si wotɔ le ami me ene.
And the people went through the field, and gathered, and ground it in the mill, or pounded it in a mortar, and baked it in a pan, and made cakes of it; and the sweetness of it was as the taste [of] wafer made with oil.
9 Mana gena kple zãmu ƒe dzadza le zã me.
And when the dew came upon the camp by night, the manna came down upon it.
10 Ƒomewo tsia tsitre ɖe woƒe agbadɔwo nu henɔa avi fam. Mose se woƒe avifafa. Yehowa gado dɔmedzoe ɖe edzi wu, eye Mose hã mekpɔ ŋudzedze le nu sia ŋu o.
And Moses heard them weeping by their families, every one in his door: and the Lord was very angry; and the thing was evil in the sight of Moses.
11 Mose gblɔ na Yehowa be, “Nu ka ta mève nu nye eye nètiam be yeadro dukɔ sia tɔgbi ƒe agba ɖe dzinye?
And Moses said to the Lord, Why have you afflicted your servant, and why have I not found grace in your sight, that you should lay the weight of this people upon me?
12 Vinyewo wonyea? Nyee nye wo fofoa? Nu sia tae nède dɔ asi nam be makpɔ wo dzi abe vidzĩwo ene va se ɖe esime míaɖo anyigba si ŋugbe nèdo na mía tɔgbuiwo la dzia?
Have I conceived all this people, or have I born them? that you say to me, Take them into your bosom, as a nurse would take her suckling, into the land which you sware to their fathers?
13 Afi ka makpɔ lã tsoe ana ame siawo katã? Wole avi fam nam le gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Na lã mí’
Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep to me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
14 Nye ɖeka nyemate ŋu atsɔ dukɔ sia ƒe nyawo o. Agba la kpe nam akpa!
I shall not be able to bear this people alone, for this thing is too heavy for me.
15 Nenye aleae nàwɔm la, ekema meɖe kuku, wum fifi laa, eye wòanye nunyee nève boŋ! Ɖem tso nye xaxa dziŋɔ sia me!”
And if you do thus to me, kill me utterly, if I have found favor with you, that I may not see my affliction.
16 Tete Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Na Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsi blaadre naƒo ƒu ɖe nye ŋkume. Kplɔ wo va agbadɔ la me, eye woatsi tsitre ɖe afi ma kpli wò.
And the Lord said to Moses, Gather me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom you yourself know that they are the elders of the people, and their scribes; and you shall bring them to the tabernacle of witness, and they shall stand there with you.
17 Maɖi ava ƒo nu kpli wò le afi ma. Maɖe Gbɔgbɔ si le dziwò la ƒe ɖe le dziwò ada ɖe woawo hã dzi. Woatsɔ dukɔ la ƒe agba akpe ɖe ŋuwò ale be dɔdeasi la maganɔ wò ɖeka ko dzi o.
And I will go down, and speak there with you; and I will take of the spirit that is upon you, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear together with you the burden of the people, and you shall not bear them alone.
18 “Gblɔ na ameawo be woakɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti, elabena woakpɔ lã aɖu etsɔ. Gblɔ na wo be, ‘Yehowa se miaƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩwo tso nu siwo katã miegblẽ ɖe megbe le Egipte la ŋu, eye wòle lã na ge mi.
And to the people you shall say, Purify yourselves for the morrow, and you shall eat flesh; for you wept before the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: and the Lord shall allow you to eat flesh, and you shall eat flesh.
19 Miaɖui ŋkeke ɖeka, alo ŋkeke eve, atɔ̃, ewo alo blaeve ko o,
You shall not eat one day, nor two, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days;
20 ke ɣleti blibo ɖeka, va se ɖe esime wòado to ŋɔtime na mi, eye wòati mi, elabena miegbe Yehowa, ame si le mia dome, eye miefa avi le eŋkume gblɔ be, “Nu ka ta koŋ míedzo le Egipte ɖo?”’”
you shall eat for a full month, until [the flesh] come out at your nostrils; and it shall be nausea to you, because you disobeyed the Lord, who is among you, and wept before him, saying, What had we to do to come out of Egypt?
21 Mose gblɔ be, “Ŋutsuawo ɖeɖe de akpe alafa ade, nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo mele eme o; le esime nèdo ŋugbe be yeana lã wo ɣleti blibo ɖeka!
And Moses said, The people among whom I am are six hundred thousand footmen; and you said, I will give them flesh to eat, and they shall eat a whole month.
22 Ne míawu míaƒe lãwo katã hã la, made wo nu o! Ele be míaɖe tɔmelã ɖe sia ɖe tso atsiaƒu me hafi nàte ŋu awɔ wò ŋugbedodo dzi!”
Shall sheep and oxen be slain for them, and shall it suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, and shall it suffice them?
23 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Ɣe ka ɣie ŋusẽ vɔ le ŋunye? Azɔ la, miakpɔe ne nye nya nye nyateƒe loo alo alakpa!”
And the Lord said to Moses, Shall not the hand of the Lord be fully sufficient? now shall you know whether my word shall come to pass to you or not.
24 Mose dzo le agbadɔ la me, eye wògblɔ Yehowa ƒe nyawo na ameawo. Eƒo ƒu ametsitsi blaadreawo nu, eye wòna woƒo xlã agbadɔ la.
And Moses went out, and spoke the words of the Lord to the people; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and he set them round about the tabernacle.
25 Yehowa ɖiɖi le lilikpo la me, ƒo nu kple Mose, eye woɖe gbɔgbɔ si nɔ Mose dzi la ƒe akpa aɖe da ɖe ametsitsi blaadreawo dzi. Esi gbɔgbɔ la ɖiɖi ɖe wo dzi la, wogblɔ nya ɖi ɣeyiɣi aɖe.
And the Lord came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy men that were elders; and when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied and ceased.
26 Ke ametsitsi blaadreawo dometɔ eve, Eldad kple Medad, ganɔ asaɖa la me ko, eye esi gbɔgbɔ la dze ɖe wo dzi la, wogblɔ nya ɖi le afi ma.
And there were two men left in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Modad; and the spirit rested upon them, and these were of the number of them that were enrolled, but they did not come to the tabernacle; and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Ɖekakpui aɖewo ƒu du yi ɖagblɔ nya si dzɔ la na Mose.
And a young man ran and told Moses, and spoke, saying, Eldad and Modad prophesy in the camp.
28 Yosua, Nun ƒe viŋutsu, ame si Mose ŋutɔ tia be wòanye yeƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ la gblɔ be, “Amegã, na woadzudzɔ!”
And Joshua the son of Naue, who attended on Moses, the chosen one, said, [My] lord Moses, forbid them.
29 Ke Mose ɖo eŋu be, “Ɖe nèle ŋu ʋãm ɖe nunyea? Ɖe boŋ madi be Yehowa ƒe amewo katã nazu nyagblɔɖilawo, eye Yehowa nada eƒe gbɔgbɔ ɖe wo katã dzi hafi!”
And Moses said to him, Are you jealous on my account? and would that all the Lord's people were prophets; whenever the Lord shall put his spirit upon them.
30 Emegbe la, Mose kple Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiawo trɔ yi asaɖa la me.
And Moses departed into the camp, himself and the elders of Israel.
31 Azɔ ya sesẽ aɖe ƒo tso Yehowa gbɔ, eye wòkplɔ tegliwo vɛ tso atsiaƒu dzi. Ena wodze ɖe anyigba ƒo xlã asaɖa la katã. Woli kɔ ɖe wo nɔewo dzi, anɔ abe mita ɖeka ene tso anyigba, eye woƒe kekeme tso asaɖa la gbɔ anye ŋkeke ɖeka ƒe azɔli.
And there went forth a wind from the Lord, and brought quails over from the sea; and it brought them down upon the camp a day's journey on this side, and a day's journey on that side, round about the camp, as it were two cubits from the earth.
32 Ŋkeke kple zã blibo la kpakple ŋkeke si kplɔe ɖo la, ameawo do go yi ɖalé tegliawo, eye ame aɖeke melé tegliawo wòle sue wu kilo eve kple afã o. Wosia wo ƒo xlã asaɖa blibo la kpe ɖo.
And the people rose up all the day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered quails; he that gathered least, gathered ten measures; and they refreshed themselves round about the camp.
33 Esi ame sia ame de asi lã la ɖuɖu me la, Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe ameawo ŋu, eye wòtsɔ dɔvɔ̃ wu ame geɖewo.
The flesh was yet between their teeth, before it failed, when the Lord was angry with the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague.
34 Eya ta wotsɔ ŋkɔ na teƒe la be Kibrot Hatava, elabena afi mae woɖi ame siwo dzro nuɖuɖu bubu la ɖo.
And the name of that place was called the Graves of Lust; for there they buried the people that lusted.
35 Tso Kibrot Hatava la, ameha la zɔ mɔ yi Hazerot, eye wonɔ afi ma.
The people departed from the Graves of Lust to Aseroth; and the people halted at Aseroth.
