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.
The people were complaining in the ears of Adonai. When Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed· it, his anger burned; and Adonai’s fire burned among them, and consumed some of the outskirts 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.
The people cried to Moses [Drawn out]; and Moses [Drawn out] prayed to Adonai, and the fire abated.
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.
The name of that place was called Taberah, because Adonai’s fire burned among them.
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!
The mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly: and the children of Israel [God prevails] also wept again, and said, “Who will give us meat 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 [Abode of slavery] for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
6 Ke fifia la, míegakpɔa nu siawo o; mana ko míeɖuna gbe sia gbe!”
but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna ·what is it· to look at.”
7 Mana la le ɣie abe bliku ene gake ele gbadzɛe, eye wòvivina abe anyitsibolo ene.
The manna ·what is it· was like coriander seed, and its appearance like the appearance of bdellium.
8 Ameawo fɔnɛ le anyigba, tonɛ le to me, ɖanɛ eye wòwɔa tatalĩ si vivina abe tatalĩ si wotɔ le ami me ene.
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.
9 Mana gena kple zãmu ƒe dzadza le zã me.
When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna ·what is it· fell on 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.
Moses [Drawn out] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and Adonai’s anger burned greatly; and Moses [Drawn out] was displeased.
11 Mose gblɔ na Yehowa be, “Nu ka ta mève nu nye eye nètiam be yeadro dukɔ sia tɔgbi ƒe agba ɖe dzinye?
Moses [Drawn out] said to Adonai, “Why have you treated with your servant so badly? Why haven’t I found chen ·grace· in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on 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? 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?’
13 Afi ka makpɔ lã tsoe ana ame siawo katã? Wole avi fam nam le gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Na lã mí’
Where could I get meat to give to all this people? For they weep to me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’
14 Nye ɖeka nyemate ŋu atsɔ dukɔ sia ƒe nyawo o. Agba la kpe nam akpa!
I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it 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!”
If you treat me this way, please kill me right now, if I have found chen ·grace· in your sight; and don’t let me see my wretchedness.”
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.
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel [God prevails], 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.
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.
I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the breath mind Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you not bear it yourself 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.
“Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of Adonai, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt [Abode of slavery].” Therefore Adonai will give you meat, and you will eat.
19 Miaɖui ŋkeke ɖeka, alo ŋkeke eve, atɔ̃, ewo alo blaeve ko o,
You will not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither 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?”’”
but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected Adonai who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt [Abode of slavery]?”’”
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!
Moses [Drawn out] said, “The people, among 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.’
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 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?”
23 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be, “Ɣe ka ɣie ŋusẽ vɔ le ŋunye? Azɔ la, miakpɔe ne nye nya nye nyateƒe loo alo alakpa!”
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Has Adonai’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen 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.
Moses [Drawn out] went out, and told the people Adonai’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent.
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.
Adonai 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.
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.
But two men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the breath mind Spirit rested on them; and they were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Ɖekakpui aɖewo ƒu du yi ɖagblɔ nya si dzɔ la na Mose.
A young man ran, and told Moses [Drawn out], and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
28 Yosua, Nun ƒe viŋutsu, ame si Mose ŋutɔ tia be wòanye yeƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ la gblɔ be, “Amegã, na woadzudzɔ!”
Joshua [Yah Salvation] the son of Nun, the servant of Moses [Drawn out], one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses [Drawn out], 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!”
Moses [Drawn out] said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all Adonai’s people were prophets, that Adonai would put his breath mind Spirit on them!”
30 Emegbe la, Mose kple Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiawo trɔ yi asaɖa la me.
Moses [Drawn out] went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel [God prevails].
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.
A wind from Adonai went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day’s journey [approximately 20 mi; 32.19 km] on this side, and a day’s journey [approximately 20 mi; 32.19 km]on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits [36 in; 91.44 cm] above the surface of 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.
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.
33 Esi ame sia ame de asi lã la ɖuɖu me la, Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe ameawo ŋu, eye wòtsɔ dɔvɔ̃ wu ame geɖewo.
While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, Adonai’s anger burned against the people, and Adonai 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.
The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
35 Tso Kibrot Hatava la, ameha la zɔ mɔ yi Hazerot, eye wonɔ afi ma.
From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
