< Ƙidaya 16 >
1 Kora ɗan Izhar, wanda yake Balawe ne daga dangin Kohatawa, wata rana ya nemi Datan da Abiram’ya’yan Eliyab, da On ɗan Felet dukansu daga kabilar Ruben, suka haɗa kai
One day Korah, who was the son of Izhar and a descendant of Levi’s son Kohath, conspired with Dathan and Abiram, who were the sons of Eliab, and On, who was the son of Peleth. Those three men were from the tribe of Reuben.
2 suka tayar wa Musa. Sai suka nemi goyon bayan sanannun shugabannin Isra’ilawa da aka naɗa a majalisa su guda 250,
Korah and those other three men incited 250 other people who were leaders among the Israeli people to join them in rebelling against Moses/me.
3 tare kuwa suka zo wurin Musa da Haruna, suka ce musu, “Kun wuce gona da iri! Dukan jama’an nan masu tsarki ne, kowannensu, Ubangiji kuma yana tare da su. Me ya sa kuke ɗaukan kanku fiye da taron jama’ar Ubangiji?”
They came together to criticize Aaron and Moses/me. They said to them/us, “You two are using more [authority] than you should! Yahweh has set apart all of us Israeli people, and he is with/helping all of us. So why do you act as though you are more important than the rest of us people who belong to Yahweh [RHQ]?”
4 Da Musa ya ji haka, sai ya fāɗi rubda ciki ya yi addu’a
When Moses/I heard what they were saying, he/I prostrated himself/myself on the ground.
5 Sai ya ce wa Kora da dukan waɗannan da suke tare shi, “Da safe, Ubangiji zai nuna wane ne yake nasa, da kuma wane ne yake da tsarki. Zai kuma sa mutumin yă zo kusa da shi. Mutumin da ya zaɓa kuwa zai sa yă zo kusa da shi.
Then he/I said to Korah and those [Israeli leaders] who were with Korah, “Tomorrow morning Yahweh will show us whom he has chosen to be his [priest], and who is holy and allowed to come near to him. Yahweh will permit [only] those whom he chooses to come into his presence.
6 Kai Kora da ƙungiyarka, gobe, za ku ɗauki farantai,
So Korah, tomorrow you and those who are with you must prepare your pans to burn incense.
7 ku zuba wuta a ciki, ku kuma zuba musu turaren wuta a gaban Ubangiji. Sa’an nan wanda Ubangiji ya zaɓa a tsakaninmu sh ne mai tsarki. Ku Lawiyawa ku ne kuka wuce gona da iri!”
Then you must light a fire in them and burn the incense in the presence of Yahweh. Then we will see which one of us Yahweh has chosen to be his holy servant. It is you men who are descendants of Levi who are trying to use more [authority] than you should!”
8 Musa ya kuma ce wa Kora, “Yanzu ku saurara, ku Lawiyawa!
Then Moses/I spoke again to Korah. He/I said, “You men who are descendants of Levi, listen to me!
9 Ashe, bai ishe ku ba, cewa Allah na Isra’ila, ya keɓe ku daga sauran jama’ar Isra’ilawa, ya kuma kawo ku kusa da shi don ku yi aiki a tabanakul na Ubangiji, ku kuma tsaya a gaba jama’a don ku yi musu aiki?
The God of us Israelis has chosen all of you to be close to him in order that you can work for him at his Sacred Tent and serve the people. (Is that unimportant/Does that mean nothing) to you [RHQ]?
10 Ya kawo ku da kuma dukan’yan’uwanku Lawiyawa kusa da shi, amma yanzu kuna ƙoƙari ku karɓi aikin firist.
Yahweh has brought you, [Korah], and your fellow descendants of Levi, near to himself. Now are you demanding to become priests also?
11 Kai da ƙungiyarka kun haɗa kai kuna yi wa Haruna gunaguni, amma wane ne Haruna? A zahiri tawaye ne kuke wa Ubangiji.”
It is really Yahweh against whom you and your fellow descendants of Levi are rebelling. Aaron is not the one about whom you are really complaining [RHQ].”
12 Sai Musa ya aika a kira Datan da Abiram,’ya’yan Eliyab maza, amma suka ce, “Ba za mu zo ba!
Then Moses/I summoned Dathan and Abiram, but [they refused to come]. They [sent a message] saying, “We will not come to you!
13 Bai isa ba ne da ka fitar da mu daga ƙasar mai zub da madara da zuma, ka kawo mu nan hamada don ka kashe mu? Yanzu kuma so kake ka mai da kanka sarki a bisanmu?
You brought us out of Egypt, which was a very fertile [IDM] land, in order to cause us to die here in this desert. That was bad. But now you are also trying to boss us [RHQ], and that is worse.
14 Ban da haka ma, ai, ba ka riga ka kai mu ƙasar mai zub da madara da zuma ba, ba ka ba mu gādon filaye da gonakin annabi ba, yanzu kuma kana so ka ruɗe mu. Mun ƙi, ba za mun zo ba!”
You have not given us a new land to live in, a land that has good fields and vineyards. You are only trying to [RHQ] trick these people. So we will not come to you.”
15 Sai Musa ya husata ƙwarai, ya ce wa Ubangiji, “Kada ka karɓi hadayarsu. Ban ƙwace wani jakinsu ba, ban kuwa cuce waninsu ba.”
Then Moses/I became very angry. He/I said to Yahweh, “Do not accept the grain offerings that they have brought. I have not taken anything from them, not even one donkey, and I have never done anything wrong to them, [so they have no reason to complain about me].”
16 Musa ya ce wa Kora, “Da kai da kuma dukan ƙungiyarka za ku bayyana a gaban Ubangiji gobe, kai da su. Haruna ma zai kasance a can.
Then Moses/I said to Korah, “You and all those who are with you must come here tomorrow and stand in front of Yahweh. Aaron will also be here.
17 Kowannenku zai ɗauki faranti yă zuba turare a ciki. Wato, farantai 250 ke nan, a kuma miƙa su a gaban Ubangiji. Kai da Haruna za ku miƙa farantanku, ku ma.”
You and all the 250 men who are with you must each take a pan in which to burn incense, and put incense in it, to [burn it to be] an offering to Yahweh. Aaron will do the same thing.”
18 Sai kowane mutum ya ɗauki farantinsa, ya sa wuta da kuma turare a ciki, suka tsaya da Musa da Haruna a ƙofar Tentin Sujada.
So [the next day] each of those men got a pan to burn incense. They put in it incense and hot coals to light it, and then they all stood at the entrance of the Sacred Tent with Aaron and Moses/me.
19 Sa’ad da Kora ya tara mabiyansa don su yi hamayya da Musa da Haruna a ƙofar Tentin Sujada, sai ɗaukakar Ubangiji ta bayyana ga dukan taron.
Then Korah summoned all the people who supported him and who were against Moses/me, and they also gathered at the entrance of the tent. Then the glory of Yahweh appeared to all of them/us,
20 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa da Haruna,
and Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
21 “Ku ware kanku daga taron nan don in gama da su nan take.”
“Get away from all these people, in order that I can get rid of them immediately!”
22 Amma Musa da Haruna suka fāɗi rubda ciki suka tā da murya suka ce, “Ya Allah, Allahn ruhohin dukan’yan adam, za ka husata da dukan taron ne, bayan mutum ɗaya ne ya yi zunubi?”
But Aaron and Moses/I prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground. We pleaded with Yahweh, saying, “God, you are the one who caused all these people to live [MTY]. Only one of these men has sinned; so, (is it right for you to be angry with all the people?/it is not right for you to be angry with all the people!) [RHQ]”
23 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
24 “Faɗa wa taron cewa, ‘Ku nisanci tentin Kora, da na Datan, da na Abiram.’”
“[Okay], but tell all the people to get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.”
25 Musa ya tashi ya tafi wurin Datan da Abiram, dattawan Isra’ilawa kuwa suka bi shi.
So Moses/I stood up and went to the tents of Dathan and Abiram. The Israeli leaders followed him/me.
26 Ya gargaɗe taron ya ce, “Ku ƙaurace wa tentin waɗannan mugayen mutane! Kada ku taɓa kome da yake nasu, domin kada a shafe ku saboda zunubansu.”
He/I told the people, “Get away from the tents of these wicked men, and do not touch anything that belongs to them! If you touch anything, you will die because of their sins!”
27 Sai suka tashi daga inda tentin Kora, da Datan, da Abiram suke. Datan da Abiram kuwa suka fita suna tsaye tare da matansu da’ya’yansu da’yan ƙananansu a ƙofar tentinsu.
So all the people moved away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Dathan and Abiram came out of their tents with their wives and children and babies, and stood at the entrances of their tents.
28 Sai Musa ya ce musu, “Da haka za ku san cewa Ubangiji ne ya aiko ni, in yi dukan waɗannan abubuwa, ba da nufin kaina na yi su ba.
Then Moses/I said, “I was not the one who decided to do all these things that I have done. It was Yahweh who [chose me and] sent me to do them. And now he will prove that to you.
29 In waɗannan mutane sun mutu kamar yadda mutane suke mutuwa, in abin da yakan sami kowa shi ne ya same su, to, ba Ubangiji ne ya aiko ni ba.
If these men die in a normal way, then it will be clear that Yahweh did not choose me.
30 Amma in Ubangiji ya kawo wani abu sabo, ya sa ƙasa ta buɗe bakinta, ta haɗiye su da dukan abin da suke da shi, suka gangara cikin kabari a raye, ta haka za ku sani mutanen nan sun rena Ubangiji.” (Sheol )
But if Yahweh does something that has never happened before, if he causes the ground [that is under their feet] to open up and swallow these men [and their families] and all their possessions, and they fall into the opening and are buried while they are still alive, then you will know that these men have insulted Yahweh.” (Sheol )
31 Nan da nan da ya gama faɗi wannan, sai ƙasa ta tsage inda Datan da Abiram suke tsaye,
As soon as Moses/I said this, the ground split open beneath those men.
32 ta kuma buɗe bakinta, ta haɗiye su tare da mutanen gidansu da dukan mutanen Kora da dukan abin da yake mallakarsu.
It swallowed them and their families and all those who were standing there with Korah and all of their possessions.
33 Suka gangara cikin kabari da rai, tare dukan mallakarsu; ƙasa ta rufe su, suka hallaka, suka rabu da jama’ar. (Sheol )
They fell into the opening in the ground while they were still alive, and all their possessions fell into the opening also. They disappeared, and the ground closed back up again. (Sheol )
34 Da jin kukansu, dukan Isra’ilawa da suke kewaye da su suka gudu, suna ihu, “Ƙasa za tă haɗiye mu, mu ma!”
They screamed as they fell, and all the people who were standing nearby heard them scream. The people [were terrified and] cried out as they ran away, saying, “[We do not want] the ground to swallow us also!”
35 Sai wuta ta fito daga wurin Ubangiji ta cinye mutane 250 da suke miƙa hadaya da turare.
And then a fire from Yahweh came down [from the sky] and burned up the 250 men who were burning the incense!
36 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
37 “Ka gaya wa Eleyazar ɗan Haruna, firist, yă kawar da farantan ƙona turare daga wurin da wutar ta cinye, yă watsar da gawayin a wani wuri, gama farantan tsarkakakku ne,
“Tell Aaron’s son Eleazar to take the pans that had incense in them away from the fire and to scatter the burning coals. The pans that those men [were carrying] are (holy/dedicated to me) [because they burned incense to me in them].
38 gama an yi amfani da farantan don miƙa mini turare. Sai ka ɗauki farantan mutanen da suka yi zunubin da ya jawo musu mutuwa ka ƙera farantan, ka yi murfin bagade da su, gama an miƙa su a gaban Ubangiji, suka zama tsarkakakku. Bari su zama alama ga Isra’ilawa.”
Those men have now died because of their sin; so [Eleazar must] take their pans and hammer the metal to make it become very thin. He must make a covering for the altar with that metal. Those pans were used to offer incense to me, so they are (holy/dedicated to me). [What happened to] those pans will now warn the Israeli people.”
39 Haka Eleyazar, firist, ya tattara farantan tagulla waɗanda mutanen da aka hallaka suka kawo, ya ƙera murfin bagade da su,
So Eleazar the priest collected the 250 pans for burning incense that had been used by the men who died in the fire. He hammered the pans very thin to make a covering for the altar, as Yahweh told Moses/me should be done.
40 yadda Ubangiji ya umarce shi, ta wurin Musa. Wannan ya zama abin tuni ga Isra’ilawa domin kada wani da ba firist ba, bai kuwa fito a cikin zuriyar Haruna ba, yă zo don yă ƙona turare a gaban Ubangiji, domin kada yă zama kamar Kora da mabiyansa.
That warned the Israeli people that only those who were descendants of Aaron were permitted to burn incense for an offering to Yahweh. If anyone else did that, the same thing that happened to Korah and those who were with him would happen to them.
41 Kashegari dukan taron Isra’ilawa suka yi gunaguni a kan Musa da Haruna suka ce, “Kun kashe mutanen Ubangiji.”
But the following morning, all the Israeli people started to complain against Aaron and Moses/me, saying “You have killed many people who belonged to Yahweh!”
42 Bayan haka, sai dukan jama’a suka taru domin su nuna rashin yardansu da abin da suke zato Musa da Haruna ne suka aikata. Da suka fuskanci Tentin Sujada, nan take sai girgije ya rufe shi, ɗaukaka Ubangiji kuwa ta bayyana.
When all the people gathered together to protest about what Aaron and Moses/I had done, they looked at the Sacred Tent and saw that the sacred cloud had covered it, and the glory of Yahweh had appeared.
43 Sai Musa da Haruna suka je gaban Tentin Sujada,
Aaron and Moses/I went and stood in front of the Sacred Tent.
44 Ubangiji kuma ya ce wa Musa,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
45 “Ku nisanci wannan taro, gama yanzu nan zan hallaka su.” Sai Musa da Haruna suka fāɗi rubda ciki.
“Get away from these people, in order that I can get rid of them immediately [without injuring you two]!” But Aaron and Moses/I prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground [and prayed].
46 Sai Musa ya ce wa Haruna, “Ka ɗauki farantinka ka sa turare a ciki, da wuta daga bagade, ka yi maza ka tafi wajen taron, ka yi kafara dominsu. Gama fushin Ubangiji ya riga ya sauko; an kuma fara annoba.”
Moses/I said to Aaron, “Quickly take another pan and put in it some burning/hot coals from the altar. Put incense in the pan, and carry it out among the people to atone for the sins of the people. Yahweh is very angry with them, and [I know that] a (severe plague/bad sickness) has already started among them.”
47 Saboda haka Haruna ya yi kamar yadda Musa ya faɗa, ya ruga a guje zuwa tsakiyar taron. An riga an fara annobar a cikin mutane, amma Haruna ya miƙa turaren ya kuma yi kafara dominsu.
So Aaron did what Moses/I told him. He took the burning incense out among the people. The plague had already started to strike the people, but Aaron continued to burn the incense so that God would forgive them for the sins they had committed.
48 Ya tsaya tsakanin matattu da masu rai, annobar kuwa ta tsaya.
He stood between the people who had already died and those who were still alive, and then the plague stopped.
49 Amma mutane 14,700 ne suka mutu a annobar, ban da waɗanda suka mutu a sanadin Kora.
But 14,700 people had already died from that plague/sickness, in addition to the people who died with Korah.
50 Sai Haruna ya komo wurin Musa a ƙofar Tentin Sujada, gama annobar ta ƙare.
Then after the plague had ended, Aaron and Moses/I returned to the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
