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.
And [when] the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard [it; ] and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed [them that were] in the uttermost parts of the camp.
2 Rĩrĩa andũ acio maakaĩire Musa, Musa akĩhooya Jehova, naguo mwaki ũcio ũkĩhora.
And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Tabera, tondũ mwaki ũcio woimĩte kũrĩ Jehova nĩwakanĩte gatagatĩ kao.
And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt 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!
And the mixt multitude that [was] among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh 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 did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:
6 No rĩu, tũtirĩ na wendo wa kũrĩa; na tũtirĩ kĩndũ o nakĩ tuonaga, tiga o mana maya moiki!”
But now our soul [is] dried away: [there is] nothing at all, beside this manna, [before] our eyes.
7 Mana macio maahaanaga ta mbegũ cia mũtĩ ũrĩa wĩtagwo korianda, na mũhianĩre wamo watariĩ ta bedola.
And the manna [was] as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of 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.
[And] the people went about, and gathered [it], and ground [it] in mills, or beat [it] in a mortar, and baked [it] in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil.
9 Rĩrĩa kwagĩa ime ũtukũ kũu kambĩ-inĩ, mana macio makagũanĩra narĩo.
And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon 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.
Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also 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?
And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon 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 begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers?
13 Ingĩruta nyama cia kũhe andũ aya othe kũ? Marandĩrĩra makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Tũhe nyama tũrĩe!’
Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, 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.”
And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not 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.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.
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.
And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which [is] upon thee, and will put [it] upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear [it] not thyself 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.
And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for [it was] well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
19 Na rĩrĩ, mũtigũcirĩa o mũthenya ũmwe, kana mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ, kana ĩtano, kana ikũmi, kana mĩthenya mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ,
Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor 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] even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which [is] among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth 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!’
And Moses said, The people, among whom I [am], [are] six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, 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 the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?
23 Jehova agĩcookeria Musa atĩrĩ, “Anga hinya wa guoko kwa Jehova nĩũnyiihĩte? Rĩu wee, nĩũkuona kana ũrĩa njugĩte nĩũkahingio kana ndũkahingio.”
And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD’s hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee 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.
And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
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.
And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that [was] upon him, and gave [it] unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, [that], when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
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 there remained two [of the] men in the camp, the name of the one [was] Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they [were] of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Mwanake ũmwe agĩtengʼera akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Elidadi na Medadi nĩmararatha mohoro kũu kambĩ.”
And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp.
28 Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, ũrĩa wateithagia Musa kuuma arĩ mũnini, akĩarĩria Musa, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Musa, mwathi wakwa, makaanie!”
And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, [one] of his young men, answered and said, 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!”
And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD’s people were prophets, [and] that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!
30 Thuutha ũcio Musa na athuuri acio a Isiraeli magĩcooka kambĩ.
And Moses gat him 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.
And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let [them] fall by the camp, as it were a day’s journey on this side, and as it were a day’s journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits [high] upon the face 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.
And the people stood up all that day, and all [that] night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread [them] all abroad for themselves round about 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.
And while the flesh [was] yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote 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.
And he called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.
35 Kuuma Kibirothu-Hataava, andũ acio nĩmathiire rũgendo, magĩkinya Hazerothu, magĩikara kuo.
[And] the people journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.
