Ọnụọgụgụ 16
1 Ugbu a, Kora nwa Izha, nwa Kohat, nwa Livayị, na ụfọdụ ndị agbụrụ Ruben bụ Datan, na Abiram ụmụ Eliab, na On, nwa Pelet nupuru isi
And Core the son of Isaar the son of Caath the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiron, sons of Eliab, and Aun the son of Phaleth the son of Ruben, spoke;
2 bilie imegide Mosis. Ndị so ha bụ narị ndị ikom abụọ na iri ise, ndị ndu a maara nke ọma, ndị so nọdụ nʼụlọ nzukọ ukwuu ndị Izrel.
and rose up before Moses, and two hundred and fifty men of the sons of Israel, chiefs of the assembly, chosen councillors, and men of renown.
3 Ha kpọrọ ọgbakọ imegide Mosis na Erọn sị ha, “Omume unu agafeela oke! Ọgbakọ Izrel dị nsọ, onye ọbụla nʼime ha kwa. Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere ha. Gịnị mere unu ji ebuli onwe unu elu karịa ọgbakọ Onyenwe anyị?”
They rose up against Moses and Aaron, and said, Let it be enough for you that all the congregation [are] holy, and the Lord [is] amongst them; and why do you set up yourselves against the congregation of the Lord?
4 Mgbe Mosis nụrụ ihe ndị a ha kwuru, ọ dara nʼala kpuo ihu ya nʼala.
And when Moses heard it, he fell on his face.
5 Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara Kora na ndị niile sonyeere ya, sị, “Nʼụtụtụ echi, Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka amara ndị bụ ndị ya na onye dị nsọ. Ọ ga-eme ka onye ahụ bịaruo ya nso. Onye ọ ga-ahọpụta ka ọ ga-emekwa ka ọ bịaruo ya nso.
And he spoke to Core and all his assembly, saying, God has visited and known those that are his and who are holy, and has brought them to himself; and whom he has chosen for himself, he has brought to himself.
6 Lee ihe ị ga-eme, Echi gị onwe gị Kora, na ndị niile nọnyeere gị, chịrịnụ ihe ịgụ ọkụ,
This do you: take to yourselves censers, Core and all his company;
7 mụnye ha ọkụ. Tinyekwanụ ụda na-esi isi ụtọ nʼime ha, were ha bịa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Onye ahụ Onyenwe anyị họpụtara ga-abụ onye ahụ dị nsọ. O zuorola unu, unu ụmụ Livayị!”
and put fire on them, and put incense on them before the Lord to-morrow; and it shall come to pass that the man whom the Lord has chosen, he shall be holy: let it be enough for you, you sons of Levi.
8 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis gwakwara Kora okwu ọzọ sị ya, “Ugbu a, geenụ ntị, unu ndị Livayị!
And Moses said to Core, Listen to me, you sons of Levi.
9 Ọ bụ ihe dị nta nʼanya unu na Chineke nke Izrel kewapụtara unu site na nzukọ ndị Izrel niile, mee ka unu bịaruo ya nso, nʼihi ije ozi nʼụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị, nakwa iguzo nʼihu nzukọ Izrel niile ijere ha ozi?
Is it a little thing for you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, and brought you near to himself to minister in the services of the tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the tabernacle to minister for them?
10 Ọ kpọbatala gị na ndị Livayị ibe gị nso ebe ọ nọ. Ugbu a, unu na-achọkwa ọrụ nchụaja?
And he has brought you near and all your brethren the sons of Levi with you, and do you seek to be priests also?
11 Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị ka gị na ndị sonyeere gị gbara izu megide. Onye ka Erọn bụ unu ji atamu ntamu megide ya?”
Thus [it is with] you and all your congregation which is gathered together against God: and who is Aaron, that you murmur against him?
12 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis ziri ozi ka a kpọọ Datan na Abiram, ụmụ ndị ikom Eliab, ma ha sịrị, “Anyị agaghị abịa.
And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiron sons of Eliab; and they said, We will not go up.
13 Ọ bụ na o zurughị gị na i si nʼala Ijipt ebe mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru kpọpụta anyị igbuchapụ anyị nʼọzara a? Ugbu a ị chọkwara ime onwe gị onyenwe anyị?
Is it a little thing that you have brought us up to a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, [and] that you altogether rule over us?
14 Nke kachasị nke, ị kpọbatabeghị anyị nʼala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya. I nyebeghị anyị ihe nketa ala ubi na ubi vaịnị. Ị chọrọ ịghụpụsị ndị ikom ndị a mkpụrụ anya? Anyị agaghị abịa!”
You are a prince, and have you brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, and have you given us an inheritance of land and vineyards? would you have put out the eyes of those men? we will not go up.
15 Mgbe ahụ, oke iwe were Mosis. Ọ kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị sị ya, “Anabatakwala aja ha niile! Ọ dịbeghị oge m naara ha ihe ọbụla, ọbụladị otu ịnyịnya ibu! O nwekwaghị onye ọbụla nʼime ha m mejọrọ.”
And Moses was exceeding indignant, and said to the Lord, Do you take no heed to their sacrifice: I have not taken away the desire of any one of them, neither have I hurt any one of them.
16 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis sịrị Kora, “Echi, gị na ndị na-esonyere gị ga-apụta bịa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Erọn ga-abịakwa.
And Moses said to Core, Sanctify your company, and be ready before the Lord, you and Aaron and they, to-morrow.
17 Nwoke ọbụla ga-eweta ihe ịgụ ọkụ nke ya, tinye ya ụda na-esi isi ụtọ, chee ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha niile dị ihe ịgụ ọkụ narị abụọ na iri ise. Gị na Erọn ga-ejikwa nke unu bịa.”
And take each man his censer, and you shall put incense upon them, and shall bring each one his censer before the Lord, two hundred and fifty censers, and you and Aaron shall bring each his censer.
18 Ya mere, nwoke ọbụla wetara ihe ịgụ ọkụ nke ya, mụnye ya ọkụ, ma tinye ya ụda na-esi isi ụtọ. Ha niile guzoro nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ, ha na Mosis na Erọn.
And each man took his censer, and they put on them fire, and laid incense on them; and Moses and Aaron stood by the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
19 Mgbe Kora kpọkọtara ndị na-eso ya imegide Mosis na Erọn nʼihu ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute, ebube Onyenwe anyị pụtara ihe nye ọgbakọ Izrel niile.
And Core raised up against them all his company by the door of the tabernacle of witness; and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation.
20 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
21 “Sitenụ nʼetiti ọgbakọ ndị a pụọ, ka m bibie ha nʼotu ntabi anya.”
Separate your selves from the midst of this congregation, and I will consume them at once.
22 Ma Mosis na Erọn dara kpuo ihu nʼala nʼihu Onyenwe anyị rịọọ ya sị, “O Chineke, gị bụ Chineke nwe ndụ mmadụ niile, ị ga-ewe iwe megide nzukọ niile nʼihi mmehie otu onye?”
And they fell on their faces, and said, O God, the God of spirits and of all flesh, if one man has sinned, [shall] the wrath of the Lord [be] upon the whole congregation?
23 Ma Onyenwe anyị zara Mosis sị ya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
24 “Gwa nzukọ Izrel niile sị ha, ‘Wezuganụ onwe unu site nʼụlọ ikwu Kora, Datan na Abiram.’”
Speak to the congregation, saying, Depart from the company of Core round about.
25 Mosis biliri jekwuru Datan na Abiram, ndị okenye Izrel sokwa Mosis.
And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiron, and all the elders of Israel went with him.
26 Mgbe Mosis ruru nʼebe ahụ, ọ dọrọ nzukọ Izrel aka na ntị sị, “Ngwa, sinụ nʼụlọ ndị ọjọọ a wezuga onwe unu. Unu ebitụkwala ihe ọbụla bụ nke ha aka. Ma ọ bụghị otu a, a ga-agụnyekọ unu na mmehie ha, lakọọ unu na ha nʼiyi.”
And he spoke to the congregation, saying, Separate yourselves from the tents of these stubborn men, and touch nothing that belongs to them, lest you be consumed with them in all their sin.
27 Ya mere mmadụ niile wezugara onwe ha site nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu Kora, na Datan na Abiram. Ma Datan na Abiram pụtara guzoro nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ikwu ha, ha onwe ha na ndị nwunye ha niile, na ụmụ ha niile, na ụmụntakịrị ha niile.
And they stood aloof from the tent of Core round about; and Dathan and Abiron went forth and stood by the doors of their tents, and their wives and their children and their store.
28 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis kwuru sị, “Ugbu a ka unu ga-amata na ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị zitere m ime ihe ndị a niile m mere. Nʼihi na-emeghị m ha site nʼuche nke onwe m.
And Moses said, Hereby shall you know that the Lord has sent me to perform all these works, that [I have] not [done them] of myself.
29 Ọ bụrụ na ndị ikom ndị a anwụọ ọnwụ chi ha, bụ ụdị nleta nke dịrị mmadụ ọbụla, mgbe ahụ, matanụ na ọ bụghị Onyenwe anyị zitere m.
If these men shall die according to the death of all men, if also their visitation shall be according to the visitation of all men, then the Lord has not sent me.
30 Ma ọ bụrụ na Onyenwe anyị emee ihe ọhụrụ dị iche, mee ka ala meghee ọnụ ya, lodaa ndị a niile, na ihe niile bụ nke ha, si otu a mee ka ha rịda nʼala ili na ndụ, mgbe ahụ, unu ga-amata na ndị ikom ndị a eledala Onyenwe anyị anya.” (Sheol h7585)
But if the Lord shall show by a wonder, and the earth shall open her mouth and swallow them up, and their houses, and their tents, and all that belongs to them, and they shall go down alive into Hades, then you shall know that these men have provoked the Lord. (Sheol h7585)
31 Mgbe Mosis kpụ okwu a nʼọnụ ya, lee ala ahụ Kora, na Datan, na Abiram, na ndị ezinaụlọ ha niile guzo nʼelu ya kewara abụọ nʼotu ntabi anya ahụ,
And when he ceased speaking all these words, the ground clave asunder beneath them.
32 ala ahụ meghere ọnụ ya, loo ha, na ezinaụlọ ha niile, na ndị ahụ niile so Kora, na ihe niile ha nwere.
And the ground opened, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that were with Core, and their cattle.
33 Ha niile rịdaruru nʼala ndị nwụrụ anwụ na ndụ. Ala ahụ kpuchikwara ha niile, si otu a mee ka ha laa nʼiyi. (Sheol h7585)
And they went down and all that they had, alive into Hades; and the ground covered them, and they perished from the midst of the congregation. (Sheol h7585)
34 Ndị Izrel niile nọ ha gburugburu gbara ọsọ, mgbe ha tiri mkpu akwa, na-asị, “Ala na-agakwa iloda anyị.”
And all Israel round about them fled from the sound of them, for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up [also].
35 Mgbe ahụ, ọkụ si nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ dara, rechapụ narị mmadụ abụọ na iri ise ndị ahụ na-enye onyinye aja nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ.
And fire went forth from the Lord, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
36 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
And the Lord said to Moses,
37 “Gwa Elieza nwa Erọn, onye nchụaja, ka o site nʼọkụ ahụ wepụta ihe ịgụ ọkụ ndị ahụ niile nʼihi na ha dị nsọ. Ọ ga-ekposakwa icheku ọkụ niile nʼakụkụ niile.
and to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, Take up the brazen censers out of the midst of the men that have been burnt, and scatter the strange fire yonder, for they have sanctified the censers
38 Ha bụ ihe ịgụ ọkụ nke ndị ikom sitere na mmehie ha tufuo ndụ ha. Ka etipịa ihe ịgụ ọkụ ndị ahụ. Mee ha ka ha ghọọ ihe sara mbara nke a ga-eji machite ebe ịchụ aja, nʼihi na e chere ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ha aghọọla ihe dị nsọ. Ka ha bụrụ ihe ịrịbama nye ndị Izrel niile.”
of these sinners against their own souls, and do you make them beaten plates a covering to the altar, because they were brought before the Lord and hallowed; and they became a sign to the children of Israel.
39 Ya mere Elieza, onye nchụaja, chịkọtara ihe ịgụ ọkụ bronz ndị ahụ nke ndị ahụ a kpọrọ ọkụ wetara, tipịa ha, mee ka ha ghọọ ihe sara mbara e ji ekpuchi ebe ịchụ aja,
And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest took the brazen censers, which the men who had been burnt brought near, and they put them as a covering on the altar:
40 dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya nʼiwu site nʼọnụ Mosis. Ka ọ bụrụ ihe ncheta nye ndị Izrel niile na onye mba ọzọ a na-enyeghị ike, nke na-esiteghị nʼagbụrụ Erọn, ekwesighị ịbịaru Onyenwe anyị nso isure aja nsure ọkụ nye ya, ka ihe mere Kora na ndị sonyere ya ghara ime ha.
a memorial to the children of Israel that no stranger might draw near, who is not of the seed of Aaron, to offer incense before the Lord; so he shall not be as Core and as they that conspired with him, as the Lord spoke to him by the hand of Moses.
41 Ma nʼụtụtụ echi ya, nzukọ Izrel niile malitere itamu ntamu megide Mosis na Erọn sị, “Unu egbuchaala ndị nke Onyenwe anyị.”
And the children of Israel murmured the next day against Moses and Aaron, saying, You have killed the people of the Lord.
42 Ma mgbe ọgbakọ Izrel zukọtara imegide Mosis na Erọn, mgbe ha chere ihu nʼụlọ nzute, na mberede, igwe ojii kpuchiri ụlọ nzute ahụ, ebube Onyenwe anyị pụtakwara ihe.
And it came to pass when the congregation combined against Moses and Aaron, that they ran impetuously to the tabernacle of witness; and the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
43 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis na Erọn gara nʼihu ụlọ nzute ahụ.
And Moses and Aaron went in, in front of the tabernacle of witness.
44 Ma Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
45 “Sinụ nʼetiti ọgbakọ a pụọ ka m bibie ha nʼotu ntabi anya.” Ha dara kpuo ihu nʼala.
Depart out of the midst of this congregation, and I will consume them at once: and they fell upon their faces.
46 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis sịrị Erọn, “Ngwa, were ihe ịgụ ọkụ ma site nʼebe ịchụ aja gụnye ya ọkụ. Tinye ya ụda na-esi isi ụtọ. Burukwa ya gaa ngwangwa nʼetiti nzukọ Izrel ka i kpuchiere ha mmehie ha, nʼihi na iwe ọkụ Onyenwe anyị adakwasịla ha. Nrịa nrịa na-efe efe amalitekwalarị ibibi ha.”
And Moses said to Aaron, Take a censer, and put on it fire from the altar, and put incense on it, and carry it away quickly into the camp, and make atonement for them; for wrath is gone forth from the presence of the Lord, it has begun to destroy the people.
47 Erọn mere dịka Mosis kwuru. O mere ngwangwa gbaba nʼetiti ndị Izrel nʼihi na nrịa nrịa ahụ ebidola nʼezie ịdakwasị ha. Erọn mụnyere ụda na-esi isi ụtọ ahụ ọkụ, si otu ahụ kpuchiere ha mmehie ha niile.
And Aaron took as Moses spoke to him, and ran amongst the congregation, for already the plague had begun amongst the people; and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
48 O guzokwara nʼetiti ndị dị ndụ na ndị nwụrụ anwụ tutu ihe otiti ahụ akwụsị.
And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague ceased.
49 Ma ihe otiti ahụ egbuolarị puku mmadụ iri, puku anọ na narị asaa. A gụnyeghị ndị niile ahụ so Kora nwụọ nʼụbọchị gara aga.
And they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides those that died on account of Core.
50 Mgbe ahụ, Erọn laghachikwutere Mosis nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ, nʼihi na nrịa nrịa ahụ na-efe efe akwụsịla.
And Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the tabernacle of witness, and the plague ceased.
