Ndari 11
1 Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Isiraeli magĩteta nĩ ũndũ wa moritũ mao, nakuo gũteta kwao gũkĩiguuo nĩ Jehova, na rĩrĩa aamaiguire, agĩakanwo nĩ marakara, naguo mwaki ũkiuma kũrĩ Jehova, ũgĩakana gatagatĩ kao, na ũgĩcina ndeere imwe cia kambĩ.
The people were complaining in the ears of the LORD. When the LORD heard it, his anger burned; and the LORD’s fire burned among them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
2 Rĩrĩa andũ acio maakaĩire Musa, Musa akĩhooya Jehova, naguo mwaki ũcio ũkĩhora.
The people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD, and the fire abated.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Tabera, tondũ mwaki ũcio woimĩte kũrĩ Jehova nĩwakanĩte gatagatĩ kao.
The name of that place was called Taberah, because the LORD’s fire burned among them.
4 Kĩrĩndĩ kĩrĩa kĩarũmanĩrĩire nao makiuma bũrũri wa Misiri gĩkĩambĩrĩria kwĩrirĩria irio cia mĩthemba ĩngĩ, na o rĩngĩ andũ a Isiraeli makĩambĩrĩria kũrĩra, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Naarĩ korwo tũrĩ na nyama cia kũrĩa!
The mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly; and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?
5 Nĩtũkũririkana thamaki iria twarĩĩaga kũu bũrũri wa Misiri tũtekũgũra, o na marenge ma mĩthemba mĩthemba, na itũngũrũ cia mahuti, na itũngũrũ iria ndungu, o na itũngũrũ thumu.
We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
6 No rĩu, tũtirĩ na wendo wa kũrĩa; na tũtirĩ kĩndũ o nakĩ tuonaga, tiga o mana maya moiki!”
but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna to look at.”
7 Mana macio maahaanaga ta mbegũ cia mũtĩ ũrĩa wĩtagwo korianda, na mũhianĩre wamo watariĩ ta bedola.
The manna was like coriander seed, and it looked like bdellium.
8 Andũ maathiiaga makamongania, magacooka makamathĩa na gĩthĩi kĩa moko, kana makamahũrĩra ndĩrĩ-inĩ na mũũthĩ. Maamarugaga na nyũngũ kana magathondeka tũmĩgate. Na maacamaga ta kĩndũ gĩthondeketwo na maguta ma mũtamaiyũ.
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 Rĩrĩa kwagĩa ime ũtukũ kũu kambĩ-inĩ, mana macio makagũanĩra narĩo.
When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
10 Musa nĩaiguire andũ a nyũmba ciothe makĩrĩra, o mũndũ arĩ mũromo-inĩ wa hema yake. Nake Jehova nĩarakarire mũno makĩria, na Musa agĩthĩĩnĩka.
Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and the LORD’s anger burned greatly; and Moses was displeased.
11 Akĩũria Jehova atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũrehere ndungata yaku thĩĩna ũyũ? Nĩ atĩa njĩkĩte ũkaaga gũgũkenia nĩguo ũnjigĩrĩre mũrigo wa andũ aya othe?
Moses said to the LORD, “Why have you treated your servant so badly? Why have not I found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
12 Kaĩ arĩ niĩ ithe wao? Kaĩ arĩ niĩ ndaamaciarire? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma ũnjĩĩre ndĩmakuue na moko makwa, ta ũrĩa mũreri wa mwana akuuaga kaana ka rũkenge, ndĩmatware bũrũri ũrĩa werĩire maithe mao ma tene na mwĩhĩtwa?
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 Ingĩruta nyama cia kũhe andũ aya othe kũ? Marandĩrĩra makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Tũhe nyama tũrĩe!’
Where could I get meat to give all these people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’
14 Ndingĩhota gũkuua andũ aya othe ndĩ nyiki; mũrigo ũyũ nĩ mũritũ mũno kũrĩ niĩ.
I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
15 Angĩkorwo ũguo nĩguo ũkũnjĩka-rĩ, njũraga o ro rĩu, angĩkorwo nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩkĩte nĩwe, na ndũkareke nyone mwanangĩko wakwa mwene.”
If you treat me this way, please kill me right now, if I have found favor in your sight; and do not let me see my wretchedness.”
16 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ: “Ndehere athuuri mĩrongo mũgwanja a Isiraeli arĩa wee ũũĩ atĩ nĩ atongoria na anene thĩinĩ wa andũ aya. Ũmarehe Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo, nĩguo marũgame hau hamwe nawe.
The LORD said to Moses, “Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, 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 Niĩ na niĩ nĩngũikũrũka ngwarĩrie ho, njoe Roho ũrĩa ũrĩ naguo na ndĩmekĩre Roho ũcio. Nao nĩmarĩgũteithagia gũkuua mũrigo wa andũ aya nĩgeetha ndũkaũkuuage ũrĩ wiki.
I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you do not bear it yourself alone.
18 “Ningĩ wĩre andũ atĩrĩ, ‘Mwĩtheriei, mwĩhaarĩrie nĩ ũndũ wa rũciũ, rĩrĩa mũkaarĩa nyama. Jehova nĩaramũiguire rĩrĩa mũrarĩraga, mũkiugaga atĩrĩ, “Naarĩ korwo tũrĩ na nyama cia kũrĩa! Maũndũ maitũ maarĩ mega rĩrĩa twarĩ bũrũri wa Misiri!” Rĩu-rĩ, Jehova nĩekũmũhe nyama, na nĩmũgũcirĩa.
“Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt.” Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat.
19 Na rĩrĩ, mũtigũcirĩa o mũthenya ũmwe, kana mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ, kana ĩtano, kana ikũmi, kana mĩthenya mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ,
You will not eat just one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days,
20 no mũgũcirĩa mweri mũgima, o nginya ciume na maniũrũ manyu, na inyuĩ mũcinyire, nĩ ũndũ nĩmũregete Jehova ũrĩa ũrĩ hamwe na inyuĩ, na mũkarĩra mũrĩ mbere yake, mũkiugaga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩatũmire tuume bũrũri wa Misiri?”’”
but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected the LORD who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt?”’”
21 No Musa akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa ndĩ nao haha nĩ ngiri magana matandatũ arĩa maretwara na magũrũ, nawe woiga atĩ, ‘Nĩngũmahe nyama cia kũrĩa mweri mũgima!’
Moses 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 Andũ aya o na mangĩthĩnjĩrwo ndũũru cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe-rĩ, no imaigane? O na mangĩtegerwo thamaki ciothe cia iria-inĩ-rĩ, no imaigane?”
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 Jehova agĩcookeria Musa atĩrĩ, “Anga hinya wa guoko kwa Jehova nĩũnyiihĩte? Rĩu wee, nĩũkuona kana ũrĩa njugĩte nĩũkahingio kana ndũkahingio.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Has the LORD’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”
24 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa akiuma nja, akĩĩra andũ acio ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte. Nake agĩcookanĩrĩria athuuri amwe ao mĩrongo mũgwanja, akĩmarũgamia marigiicĩirie Hema ĩyo.
Moses went out, and told the people the LORD’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent.
25 Nake Jehova agĩikũrũka na itu akĩaria na Musa, akĩoya Roho ũrĩa warĩ thĩinĩ wa Musa, na agĩĩkĩra Roho ũcio thĩinĩ wa athuuri acio mĩrongo mũgwanja. Rĩrĩa Roho okire igũrũ rĩao-rĩ, makĩratha mohoro, no matiacookire gwĩka ũguo hĩndĩ ĩngĩ.
The LORD 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 No rĩrĩ, andũ eerĩ, nĩo Elidadi na Medadi, nĩmatigĩtwo kambĩ. Nao nĩmandĩkĩtwo hamwe na athuuri acio angĩ no matiathiĩte Hema-inĩ ĩyo. No rĩrĩ, Roho nĩ okire igũrũ rĩao, nao makĩratha mohoro marĩ kũu kambĩ.
But two men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the Spirit rested on them. They were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Mwanake ũmwe agĩtengʼera akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Elidadi na Medadi nĩmararatha mohoro kũu kambĩ.”
A young man ran, and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
28 Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, ũrĩa wateithagia Musa kuuma arĩ mũnini, akĩarĩria Musa, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Musa, mwathi wakwa, makaanie!”
Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses, forbid them!”
29 No Musa akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũkũigua ũiru nĩ ũndũ wakwa? Niĩ ingĩenda andũ othe a Jehova makorwo marĩ anabii, na atĩ Jehova amekĩre Roho wake!”
Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD’s people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!”
30 Thuutha ũcio Musa na athuuri acio a Isiraeli magĩcooka kambĩ.
Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31 Na rĩrĩ, rũhuho rũkiuma harĩ Jehova, rũkĩrehe tũmakia-arũme kuuma iria-inĩ. Rũgĩtũgũithia tũthiũrũrũkĩirie mĩena yothe ya kambĩ buti ithatũ kuuma thĩ, handũ ha itĩĩna rĩa rũgendo rwa mũthenya mũgima mbarĩ ciothe.
A wind from the LORD went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the earth.
32 Mũthenya ũcio wothe na ũtukũ, na mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ wothe, andũ acio makiumagara makĩũngania tũmakia-arũme. Gũtirĩ mũndũ wonganirie thuutha wa homeri ikũmi. Ningĩ magĩtwanĩka gũthiũrũrũkĩria kambĩ yothe.
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 No rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa nyama icio ciarĩ tũnua-inĩ twao, o na itarĩ ndanuke-rĩ, marakara ma Jehova magĩakanĩra andũ acio, akĩmahũũra na mũthiro mũnene.
While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the LORD’s anger burned against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.
34 Tondũ ũcio handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Kibirothu-Hataava, nĩ ũndũ hau nĩho maathikire andũ arĩa maaiguĩte thuti ya irio ingĩ.
The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
35 Kuuma Kibirothu-Hataava, andũ acio nĩmathiire rũgendo, magĩkinya Hazerothu, magĩikara kuo.
From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
