< Resansman 16 >
1 Kore, pitit gason Iza, moun laras Levi nan fanmi Keyat la, pran tèt Datan ak Abiram, pitit gason Eliyab yo ansanm ak One, pitit gason Pelèt, twa moun laras Woubenn.
Then took Korah, son of Izhar son of Kohath son of Levi, —and Dathan and Abiram sons of Eliab, and On, son of Peleth sons of Reuben;
2 Yo revòlte kont Moyiz. Te gen desansenkant (250) lòt moun nan pèp Izrayèl la avèk yo. Mesye sa yo, se te chèf pèp la menm te chwazi, moun ki te fè pati konsèy pèp la, chèf moun yo te konsidere anpil.
and rose up before Moses, with certain men of the sons of Israel, two hundred and fifty, —princes of assembly, called to the stated meeting, men of renown;
3 Yo tout reyini devan Moyiz ak Arawon, yo di yo konsa: -Koulye a, mesye, n' al twò lwen tande! Dènye moun nan pèp la se pou Seyè a y'ap viv. Seyè a la nan mitan nou tout, pa vre? Poukisa, nou menm Moyiz ak Arawon, nou pran pòz chèf nou anwo pèp Seyè a konsa?
and gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron and said unto them Too much for you, when, all the assembly, are, all of them, holy, and in the midst of them, is Yahweh, —Wherefore, then, should ye set yourselves up, above the convocation of Yahweh?
4 Lè Moyiz tande sa, li lage kò l' atè plat, li lapriyè. Lèfini, li di Kore ak bann moun ki te avè l' yo konsa:
And, when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face.
5 -Denmen maten, Seyè a va fè nou konnen ki moun ki pou li, ki moun li mete apa pou l' ak ki moun ki gen dwa pwoche bò kote l'. Moun la kite pwoche bò kote l' la, n'a konnen se moun sa a Bondye chwazi.
Then spake he unto Korah, and unto all his assembly, saying, In the morning, will Yahweh make known who are his, and who is the holy one and will cause him to come near unto himself, —yea him whom he shall choose, will he cause to come near unto himself.
6 Men sa pou n' fè. Ou menm, Kore, ak chak moun ki nan bann ou an, nou chak n'a pran yon ti recho dife.
This do, —Take to you censers, Korah and all his assembly;
7 Denmen maten chak moun va ranje chabon dife nan recho pa l' la, epi l'a mete lansan sou dife a devan lotèl Seyè a. Konsa, moun Seyè a va chwazi a, n'a konnen se li menm Bondye mete apa pou l' a. Se nou menm, pitit Levi yo, ki pral twò lwen koulye a!
and place therein fire, and put thereon incense before Yahweh, to-morrow, So shall it be—that, the man whom Yahweh shall choose, he shall be the holy one. Too much for you ye sons of Levi!
8 Moyiz di Kore konsa: -Koute non, nou menm pitit Levi yo!
And Moses said unto Korah, —Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi!
9 Apre tou sa Bondye fè pou nou, nou jwenn li pa fè ase toujou: Nan tout pèp Izrayèl la, se nou li chwazi pou pwoche bò kote l', pou fè sèvis li nan kay li, pou kanpe devan pèp la pou fè sèvis pou yo.
Is it too small a thing for you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the assembly of Israel, to bring you near unto himself, —to do the laborious work of the habitation of Yahweh, and to stand before the assembly, to wait upon them?
10 Ou menm Kore ak tout frè ou yo, pitit Levi yo, li ban nou dwa pou nou pwoche bò kote l'. Epi koulye a, n'ap mande pou yo ban nou plas prèt yo!
But having brought thee near, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee, must ye seek priesthood also?
11 Lè ou menm ak tout bann mesye ou yo n'ap plenyen konsa sou do Arawon, kisa Arawon ye nan sa? Konnen se kont Seyè a menm wi nou pran pozisyon.
Wherefore thou and all thine assembly, are conspiring against Yahweh, —But Aaron, what is he, that ye should murmur against him?
12 Apre sa, Moyiz voye rele Datan ak Abiram, de nan pitit gason Eliyab yo. Men yo voye di Moyiz: -Nou p'ap vini.
Then sent Moses, to call for Dathan and for Abiram sons of Eliab, —and they said We will not come up:
13 Ou fin fè nou kite yon bon ti peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl t'ap koule tankou dlo, ou mennen nou vin mouri isit nan dezè a, epi koulye a ou vle pran pòz chèf ou sou nou ankò!
Was it, a small thing, that thou didst bring us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in the desert but thou must, continue even to lord it, over us?
14 Ou mèt di sa ou vle, men se pa nan yon peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo ou mennen nou la a! Ou pa ban nou okenn jaden pou n' plante grenn ni okenn jaden rezen ou te di ou t'ap ban nou an. Atò, ou kwè ou kapab pete je moun sa yo? Non! Nou p'ap vini.
Certainly not into a land flowing with milk and honey, hast thou brought us, nor given unto us an inheritance of field and vineyard, —The eyes of those men, wilt thou dig out? We will not come up.
15 Lè sa a, Moyiz fè yon sèl fache, li di Seyè a konsa: -Pa asepte okenn ofrann moun sa yo ta pote vin ofri ou. Mwen pa janm pran anyen nan zafè yo, pa menm yon bourik. Mwen pa janm fè yonn ladan yo anyen.
Then was Moses very angry, and he said unto Yahweh, Do not thou have respect unto their meal-offering. Not one ass, from them, have I taken, neither have I wronged one of them.
16 Apre sa, Moyiz di Kore konsa: -Ou menm ak tout bann moun ou yo, denmen n'a vini devan lotèl Seyè a. Arawon va la tou.
And Moses said unto Korah, Thou, and all thine assembly, come ye before Yahweh, —thou, and they, and Aaron to-morrow.
17 Chak moun va pran yon ti recho dife, y'a mete lansan ladan l', epi y'a pote recho yo devan Seyè a. Sa va fè desansenkant (250) recho. Ou menm ak Arawon, n'a vini ak recho pa nou tou.
And take ye each man his censer and put thereon incense, then shall ye bring near before Yahweh, each man his censer, two hundred and fifty Censers, —and, thou and Aaron, each man his censer.
18 Se konsa, yo chak pran yon ti recho, yo ranje chabon dife ladan l', yo mete lansan sou dife a, epi yo vin kanpe devan pòt Tant Randevou a ansanm ak Moyiz ak Arawon.
So they took each man his censer and put thereon fire, and placed thereon incense, —and took their stand at the entrance of the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron.
19 Kore te fè tout pèp la reyini nan pòt Tant Randevou a anfas Moyiz ak Arawon. Yo rete konsa, epi pouvwa Bondye parèt tankou yon gwo limyè devan tout pèp la.
And Korah gathered together against them all the assembly, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, —then appeared the glory of Yahweh, unto all the assembly.
20 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo:
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
21 -Wete kò nou nan mitan moun sa yo. Mwen pral disparèt yo koulye a.
Separate yourselves out of the midst of this assembly, —that I may consume them in a moment.
22 Men Moyiz ak Arawon tonbe fas atè, yo di: -O Bondye, ou menm ki bay tout moun lavi, se pa paske yon sèl moun fè sa l' pa t' dwe fè kifè pou ou fache sou tout pèp la.
And they fell upon their faces and said, O GOD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, —shall, one man, sin, and against all the assembly, wilt thou be wroth.
23 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,
24 -Pale ak tout pèp la. Di yo pou mwen pou yo wete kò yo bò kote Kore, Datan ak Abiram rete a.
Speak unto the assembly, saying, —Get ye up from round about the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram.
25 Moyiz leve, l' al jwenn Datan ak Abiram. Tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo te ale avè l' tou.
So Moses rose up, and went, unto Dathan and Abiram, —then went, after him the elders of Israel.
26 Li pale ak pèp la, li di yo: -Wete kò nou bò kote bann mechan sa yo rete a. Pa manyen anyen ki pou yo, si nou pa vle pase tou nan chatiman yo pral ba yo pou peche yo fè a.
And he spake unto the assembly, saying—Remove I pray you from beside the tents of these lawless men, and do not touch aught that pertaineth unto them, —lest ye be carried off, in all their sins.
27 Se konsa, tout pèp la wete kò yo, yo rete byen lwen kote Kore, Datan ak Abiram te rete a. Datan ak Abiram menm soti, yo vin kanpe devan pòt kay yo ansanm ak madanm yo, pitit yo ak pitit pitit yo.
So they went up from beside the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram on every side, —and, Dathan and Abiram, came out and stationed themselves at the entrance of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones.
28 Moyiz di pèp la konsa: -Avèk sa ki pral rive a, nou pral konnen se Seyè a menm ki te voye m' fè tout travay sa yo. Se pa mwen menm ki rete konsa mwen di mwen pral fè yo.
Then said Moses, Hereby, shall ye know, that, Yahweh hath sent me, to do all these works, —verily, not out of my own heart:
29 Si moun sa yo mouri jan tout moun fèt pou mouri a, san se pa Bondye ki pini yo, enben, se pa Seyè a ki te voye m'.
If, as all human beings die, these do die, and the visitation of all human beings, be visited upon them, Yahweh, hath not sent me.
30 Men, si Seyè a fè bagay nou poko janm wè, si li fè tè a louvri pou l' vale moun sa yo ansanm ak tou sa ki pou yo, kifè y'ap desann tou vivan nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, n'a konnen se Seyè a menm yo t'ap derespekte konsa. (Sheol )
But, if, a creation, Yahweh create, and the ground open wide her mouth and swallow them up, with all that pertain unto them, and so they go down alive unto hades, then shall ye know, that these men have despised Yahweh. (Sheol )
31 Fini li fini di pawòl sa yo, tè a fann, li louvri anba pye Datan ak Abiram.
And it came to pass as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground which was under them, clave asunder;
32 Li vale yo, yo menm, tout fanmi yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te pran pozisyon pou Kore, ak tou sa ki te pou yo.
and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up them, and their households, —and all the human beings who pertained unto Korah, with all their goods:
33 Yo desann tou vivan avèk tou sa ki te pou yo nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. Apre sa, tè a fèmen sou yo, yo disparèt nèt nan mitan pèp la. (Sheol )
so, they, and all that pertained unto them, went down, alive unto hades, —and the earth, closed upon them, and they perished out of the midst of the convocation. (Sheol )
34 Tout moun nan pèp la ki te la pran kouri lè yo tande jan moun yo t'ap rele. Yo t'ap di: -Ann kouri pou tè a pa vale nou tou.
And, all Israel who were round about them, fled at their cry, —for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up.
35 Menm lè a tou, Seyè a voye yon sèl dife ki devore tout desansenkant (250) mesye ki t'ap ofri lansan yo.
Fire also came forth, from Yahweh, —and consumed the two hundred and fifty men, who offered the incense.
36 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
37 -Mande Eleaza, pitit gason Arawon, prèt la, pou l' ale wete recho dife an kwiv yo nan mitan rès moun boule yo. L'a jete chabon dife ki ladan yo yon kote byen lwen, paske recho dife sa yo se bagay ki apa pou mwen.
Say unto Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the midst of the burning, and the fire, scatter thou yonder, —for they have been hallowed.
38 Wi, yo apa pou mwen paske mesye sa yo ki mouri pou peche yo te ofri yo devan lotèl Seyè a. W'a pran recho sa yo, w'a bat yo ak mato fè yo tounen plak fin pou kouvri lotèl la. Sa va sèvi yon avètisman pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
As for the censers of these sinners against their own persons, they shall be made into beaten-out plates as an overlay for the altar, for they had brought them near before Yahweh and hallowed them, —so shall they become a sign unto the sons of Israel.
39 Se konsa, Eleaza, prèt la, te pran recho an kwiv moun boule yo te ofri yo, li bat yo ak mato, li fè yon kouvèti pou lotèl la
And Eleazar the priest took the censers of bronze, which the consumed men had brought near, —and beat them out into plates for overlaying the altar:
40 pou sa sèvi yon avètisman pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo, pou yo konnen moun ki pa fè pati fanmi Arawon an pa gen dwa pwoche devan lotèl Seyè a pou boule lansan. Si yo fè sa, sa ki rive Kore ak moun li yo, se sa k'ap rive moun sa yo tou. Tou sa pase konsa vre dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou Eleaza.
a memorial unto the sons of Israel, That no stranger, who is not of the seed of Aaron, shall draw near to offer incense before Yahweh, —lest he become like Korah and like his assembly, As spake Yahweh by the hand of Moses with regard thereto.
41 Nan denmen, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran bougonnen sou do Moyiz ak Arawon, yo t'ap di: -Se nou menm ki lakòz moun pèp Seyè a ap mouri konsa.
And all the assembly of the sons of Israel murmured, on the morrow, against Moses and against, Aaron, saying, —Ye, have caused the death of the people of Yahweh.
42 Lè pèp la fin sanble pou yo pran pozisyon kont Moyiz ak Arawon, yo vire je yo gade Tant Randevou a, yo wè nwaj la te kouvri tant lan. Menm lè a, pouvwa Bondye-a parèt tankou yon gwo limyè.
And it came to pass, when the assembly gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, that they turned towards the tent of meeting, and lo! the cloud had covered it: and the glory of Yahweh, appeared.
43 Moyiz ak Arawon ale, yo kanpe devan Tant Randevou a.
And Moses and Aaron came in, before the tent of meeting.
44 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
45 -Wete kò nou nan mitan pèp sa a. Mwen pral disparèt yo koulye a menm! De mesye yo tonbe fas atè.
Lift yourselves up out of the midst of this assembly, that I may consume them, as in a moment, —And they fell upon their faces.
46 Epi Moyiz di Arawon konsa: -Pran ti recho dife ou la, pran chabon dife sou lotèl la, mete ladan l'. Vide ti lansan sou dife a. Epi kouri vit avè l' al jwenn pèp la. W'a fè sèvis pou mande Bondye padon pou yo. Fè vit non! Seyè a fache anpil, li gen tan pran desizyon l'. Malè a konmanse deja.
Then said Moses unto Aaron—Take the censer and place thereon fire, from off the altar, and put incense [thereon], and, going quickly into the assembly, put a propitiatory-covering over them, —for wrath hath gone forth from before Yahweh the plague, hath begun.
47 Arawon pran ti recho a, li fè sa Moyiz te di l' fè a. Epi li pran kouri nan mitan pèp la. Men, malè a te deja konmanse ap fè dega nan pèp la. Lè Arawon wè sa, li mete lansan sou dife a, li fè sèvis pou mande Bondye padon pou yo.
Then took Aaron, as Moses spake, and ran into the midst of the convocation, and lo! the plague had begun among the people, —so he placed the incense, and put a propitiatory-covering over the people:
48 Se konsa malè a te sispann. Arawon te kanpe nan mitan ak mò yo yon bò, moun vivan yo yon lòt bò.
thus did he take his stand between the dead and the living, —and the plague was restrained.
49 Te gen katòzmil sètsan moun (14.700) antou ki te mouri nan malè sa a, san konte sa ki te mouri akòz Kore yo.
And so it was that they who died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, —besides them who died over the matter of Korah.
50 Lè malè a sispann nèt, Arawon tounen al jwenn Moyiz, devan papòt Kay Randevou a.
And Aaron returned unto Moses, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, —when, the plague, had been restrained.
