Ọnụọgụgụ 14
1 Nʼabalị ahụ, ọgbakọ Izrel niile weliri olu ha bido iti mkpu akwa. Ha kwagidere akwa a abalị niile.
Wherefore the whole multitude crying wept that night.
2 Ndị Izrel niile tamuru ntamu megide Mosis na Erọn. Ọgbakọ ahụ niile sị ha, “Ọ gaara aka mma ma a sị na anyị nwụrụ nʼala Ijipt maọbụ nʼọzara a.
And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron, saying:
3 Gịnị mere Onyenwe anyị ji akpọbata anyị nʼala a ime ka anyị daa nʼihu mma agha. Ndị nwunye anyị na ụmụ anyị ga-aghọ ndị a dọtara nʼagha. Ọ garaghị akara anyị mma ịlaghachi azụ nʼIjipt?”
Would God that we had died in Egypt and would God we may die in this vast wilderness, and that the Lord may not bring us into this land, lest we fall by the sword, and our wives and children be led away captives. Is it not better to return into Egypt?
4 Ya mere ha kwekọrịtara nʼetiti onwe ha sị, “Ka anyị họpụtaranụ onwe anyị onyendu ga-edughachi anyị azụ nʼIjipt.”
And they said one to another: Let us appoint a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
5 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis na Erọn dara kpuo ihu nʼala nʼihu ọgbakọ ndị Izrel niile zukọtara nʼebe ahụ.
And when Moses and Aaron heard this, they fell down flat upon the ground before the multitude of the children of Israel.
6 Mmadụ abụọ nʼime ndị nledo ahụ, Joshua nwa Nun na Kaleb nwa Jefune, dọwara uwe ha.
But Josue the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephone, who themselves also had viewed the land, rent their garments,
7 Ha gwara nzukọ Izrel sị, “Ala ahụ anyị gara ledoo anya bụ ala mara mma.
And said to all the multitude of the children of Israel: The land which we have gone round is very good:
8 Ọ bụrụ na ihe banyere anyị na-atọ Onyenwe anyị ụtọ, ọ ga-edu anyị bata nʼala ahụ, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya.
If the Lord be favourable, he will bring us into it, and give us a land flowing with milk and honey.
9 Unu enupukwala isi megide Onyenwe anyị. Unu atụkwala egwu ndị bi nʼime ala ahụ, nʼihi na anyị ga-emeri ha. Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere anyị. O wepụkwala aka nchebe ya nʼahụ ha. Unu atụla egwu ha.”
Be not rebellious against the Lord: and fear ye not the people of this land, for we are able to eat them up as bread. All aid is gone from them: the Lord is with us, fear ye not.
10 Ma naanị nzaghachi ọgbakọ ndị Izrel nyere nʼihi okwu nkasiobi ndị a bụ iche uche otu ha ga-esi jiri nkume tugbuo Joshua na Kaleb. Nʼoge a, ebube Onyenwe anyị pụtara ihe nʼụlọ nzute ahụ nye ndị Izrel niile.
And when all the multitude cried out, and would have stoned them, the glory of the Lord appeared over the tabernacle of the covenant to all the children of Israel.
11 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Ruo ole mgbe ka ndị a ga-anọgide na-eleda m anya? Ruo ole mgbe ka ha ga-anọ ju ikwenye na m, nʼagbanyeghị ọtụtụ ihe ịrịbama nke m mere nʼetiti ha.
And the Lord said to Moses: How long will this people detract me? how long will they not believe me for all the signs that I have wrought before them?
12 Aga m eji nrịa nrịa nke na-efe efe tigbuo ha. Napụ ha ihe ha nwere. Ma aga m emekwa gị ka ị ghọọ mba dị ukwuu, nke ga-adị ukwuu, dịkwa ike karịa ha.”
I will strike them therefore with pestilence, and will consume them: but thee I will make a ruler over a great nation, and a mightier than this is.
13 Ma Mosis rịọrọ Onyenwe anyị sị ya, “Gịnị ka ndị Ijipt ga-eche banyere nke a, mgbe ha ga-anụ ya? Ha maara nke ọma otu ị sịrị jiri ike gị napụta ndị a site nʼetiti ha.
And Moses said to the Lord: That the Egyptians, from the midst of whom thou hast brought forth this people,
14 Ha agwakwala ndị bi nʼobodo ndị a ihe banyere ya. Ndị obodo ndị a anụla ihe banyere gị Onyenwe anyị, matakwa na ị nọnyeere Izrel, na gị bụ Onyenwe anyị na ndị Izrel na-ekwurịta okwu ihu na ihu. Ha anụkwala na ogidi igwe ojii gị Onyenwe anyị na-eguzo nʼelu, nʼisi anyị. Ha matakwara na ị na-edu anyị nʼime ogidi igwe ojii nʼehihie, na nʼime ogidi na-enwu ọkụ nʼabalị.
And the inhabitants of this land, (who have heard that thou, O Lord, art among this people, and art seen face to face, and thy cloud protecteth them, and thou goest before them in a pillar of a cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night, )
15 Ma ugbu a, ọ bụrụ na i gbusie ndị gị a dum, mba niile nụrụla akụkọ ndị a banyere gị ga-asị,
May hear that thou hast killed so great a multitude as it were one man and may say:
16 ‘Onyenwe anyị enweghị ike ịkpọbata ndị a nʼala ahụ o kwere nkwa inye ha. Ọ bụ ya mere o ji gbuo ha nʼọzara.’
He could not bring the people into the land for which he had sworn, therefore did he kill them in the wilderness.
17 “Ugbu a ka Onyenwe anyị gosi ike ya dị ukwuu, dịka i si kwuo.
Let their the strength of the Lord be magnified, as thou hast sworn, saying:
18 Onyenwe anyị bụ onye na-adịghị ewe iwe ọsịịsọ, onye jupụtara nʼịhụnanya, onye na-agbaghara mmehie na nnupu isi. Ma ọ dịghị ahapụ onye ikpe mara ka ọ laa na-anataghị ahụhụ, ọ na-ata ụmụ ahụhụ nʼihi mmehie nna nna ha ruo nʼọgbọ nke atọ na nke anọ.
The Lord is patient and full of mercy, taking away iniquity and wickedness, and leaving no man clear, who visitest the sins of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.
19 Dịka ịdị ukwuu nke ịhụnanya gị si dị; gbaghara mmehie nke ndị a mere, dịka i si agbaghara ha kemgbe ha hapụrụ Ijipt ruo ugbu a.”
Forgive, I beseech thee, the sins of this people, according to the greatness of thy mercy, as thou hast been merciful to them from their going out of Egypt unto this place.
20 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị zaghachiri Mosis sị ya, “Agbagharala m ha dịka ị rịọrọ.
And the Lord said: I have forgiven according to thy word.
21 Ma dịka m na-adị ndụ na dịka ọ bụ eziokwu na ụwa niile ga-ejupụta nʼebube Onyenwe anyị.
As I live: and the whole earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.
22 Ọ dịghị otu onye nʼetiti ndị ikom niile hụrụla ebube m, na ọrụ ịrịbama niile m rụrụ nʼime Ijipt, na nʼime ọzara a, ma bụrụ onye nupuru isi nye m na onye nwaara m ugboro iri ndị a,
But yet all the men that have seen my majesty, and the signs that I have done in Egypt, and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now ten times, and have not obeyed my voice,
23 o nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime ha ga-ahụ ala ahụ m sitere nʼịṅụ iyi kwee nkwa inye nna nna ha. O nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime ndị a lelịrị m ga-ahụ ala ahụ anya.
Shall not see the land for which I aware to their fathers, neither shall any one of them that hath detracted me behold it.
24 Ma ohu m nwoke Kaleb bụ nwoke nwere mmụọ dị iche. O rubeere m isi nʼihe niile. Aga m akpọbata ya nʼala ahụ ọ banyere dịka onye nledo. Ụmụ ụmụ ya niile ga-eketa ya.
My servant Caleb, who being full of another spirit hath followed me, I will bring into this land which he hath gone round: and his seed shall possess it.
25 Ma ugbu a, ebe ndị Izrel na-atụ ndị Amalek na ndị Kenan bi nʼime ndagwurugwu ahụ egwu, echi, unu ga-atụgharịa laghachi azụ nʼọzara ahụ; chee ụzọ gaje Osimiri Uhie ahụ ihu.”
For the Amalecite and the Chanaanite dwell in the valleys. Tomorrow remove the camp, and return into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.
26 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
27 “Ruo ole mgbe ka ọgbakọ ọjọọ a ga-anọgide na-atamu ntamu megide m? Nʼihi na anụla m ntamu niile nke ndị Izrel a.
How long doth this wicked multitude murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel.
28 Gwa ha si, ‘Dị ka m na-adị ndụ, ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, aga m emeso unu mmeso dịka unu kwunyere ya na ntị m.
Say therefore to them: As I live, saith the Lord: According as you have spoken in my hearing, so will I do to you.
29 Unu niile ga-anwụpịa nʼime ọzara a! Onye ọbụla nʼime unu niile gbarala iri afọ abụọ maọbụ karịa, nke tamuru ntamu megide m.
In the wilderness shall your carcasses lie. All you that were numbered from twenty years old and upward, and have murmured against me,
30 O nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-abanye nʼala ahụ, m sitere nʼaka m welie elu ṅụọ iyi ime ka ọ bụrụ ebe obibi unu, karịa Kaleb nwa Jefune na Joshua nwa Nun.
Shall not enter into the land, over which I lifted up my bend to make you dwell therein, except Caleb the son of Jephone, and Josue the son of Nun.
31 Ma ebe unu tụrụ egwu sị na ụmụ unu na-aga ibu ndị ohu nye ndị bi nʼala ahụ. Lee na aga m edubata ha nʼime ala ahụ. Ha ga-eketakwa ala ahụ unu jụrụ, nke unu ledara anya.
But your children, of whom you said, that they should be a prey to the enemies, will I bring in: that they may see the land which you have despised.
32 Ma unu onwe unu, ozu unu ga-ada aghara aghara nʼọzara a.
Your carcasses shall lie in the wilderness.
33 Ụmụ unu ga-abụkwa ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ nʼime ọzara a iri afọ anọ, na-ata ahụhụ nʼihi ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi, ruo mgbe ozu onye ikpeazụ nʼime unu ga-atọgbọrọ nʼime ọzara.
Your children shall wander in the desert forty years, and shall bear your fornication, until the carcasses of their fathers be consumed ill the desert,
34 Iri afọ anọ ka unu ga-ata ahụhụ nʼihi mmehie unu, matakwa ihe ọ pụtara bụ mụ iguzo megide unu, ya bụ otu afọ ga-anọchi otu ụbọchị nʼime iri ụbọchị anọ ahụ unu ji ledoo ala ahụ anya.
According to the number of the forty days, wherein you viewed the land: year shall be counted for a day. And forty years you shall receive your iniquities, and shall know my revenge:
35 Mụ onwe m, bụ Onyenwe anyị, ekwuola ya. Nke a ka m na-aghaghị ime ka ọ dakwasị ajọ nzukọ ndị a, bụ ndị gbakọrọ megide m. Ha ga-ezute ọgwụgwụ ha nʼọzara, nʼebe a ka ha ga-anwụ.’”
For as I have spoken, so will I do to all this wicked multitude, that hath risen up together against me: in this wilderness shall it faint away and die.
36 Ya mere ndị ahụ Mosis zipụrụ iledo ala ahụ, ndị ahụ lọtara mee ka ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel tamuo ntamu nʼihi akụkọ ọjọọ ha gbasara.
Therefore all the men, whom Moses had sent to view the land, and who at their return had made the whole multitude to murmur against him, speaking ill of the land that it was naught,
37 Ndị ikom ndị ahụ e si nʼọnụ ha gbasaa akụkọ ọjọọ banyere ala ahụ, ka e ji nrịa nrịa na-efe efe tigbuo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
Died and were struck in the sight of the Lord.
38 Nʼime ndị ikom gara ledoo ala ahụ anya, ọ bụ naanị Joshua nwa Nun na Kaleb nwa Jefune fọdụrụ ndụ.
But Josue. the son of Nun. and Caleb the son of Jephone lived, of all them that had gone to view the land.
39 Mgbe Mosis gwara ụmụ Izrel okwu niile si nʼọnụ Onyenwe anyị, ha ruru ụjụ dị ilu.
And Moses spoke all these words to all the children of Israel, and the people mourned exceedingly.
40 Nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, ha biliri nʼoge bulie ije ịga nʼala ugwu ugwu ahụ. Ha sịrị, “Anyị emehiela. Ugbu a anyị ejikerela ije nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị kwere anyị nkwa.”
And behold rising up very early in the morning, they went up to the top of the mountain, and said: We are ready to go up to the place, of which the Lord hath spoken: for we have sinned.
41 Ma Mosis zara sị ha, “Gịnị mere unu ji enupu isi nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị nyere? Nke a agaghị aga nke ọma.
And Moses said to them: Why transgress you the word of the Lord, which shall not succeed prosperously with you?
42 Unu arịgokwala, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị anọghị nʼetiti unu. Ndị iro unu ga-emerikwa unu.
Go not up, for the Lord is not with you: lest you fall before your enemies.
43 Nʼihi na ndị Amalek na ndị Kenan nọ na-eche unu nʼebe ahụ! Ebe ọ bụ na unu esitela nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ wezuga onwe unu, ọ gaghị anọnyere unu, unu ga-adakwa nʼihu mma agha.”
The Amalecite and the Chanaanite are before you, and by their sword you shall fall, because you would not consent to the Lord, neither will the Lord be with you.
44 Nʼagbanyeghịkwa nke a, na ha enweghị nkwado. Ha rigooro ruo ebe kachasị elu nʼobodo ahụ dị nʼugwu, ọ bụ ezie na Mosis maọbụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị esighị nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ahụ pụọ.
But they being blinded went up to the top of the mountain. But the ark of the testament of the Lord and Moses departed not from the camp.
45 Mgbe ahụ, ndị Amalek na ndị Kenan bụ ndị bi nʼobodo ugwu ahụ, rịdatara lụso ha ọgụ. Tidaa ha nʼala ruo Homa.
And the Amalecite came down, and the Chanaanite that dwelt in the mountain: and smiting and slaying them pursued them as far as Horma.
