4 Mose 14

1 Ana maka vahe kevu'moza ana nanekema antahite'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za ana kenagera tusi zavi ate'naze.

Then everybody there cried out loud all night.

2 Israeli vahe'mo'za Mosesene, Aronikiznia keha' reznante'za maka vahe'mo'za anage huznante'naze, Tagra Isipima mani'neta frunte'sina knare hisine! Nahanigeta ama ka'ma hagege mopafina frigahune!

All the Israelites went and complained to Moses and Aaron, telling them, “If only we'd died in Egypt, or here in this desert!

3 Ra Anumzamo'a ama moparera kazinknonu tahe frihogu tavreno e'nefi? A'nene, mofavretinena tahe'za hanaresagi, eteta Isipima vanunkeno'a knare hugahie?

Why is the Lord taking us to this country only to get us killed? Our wives and children will be captured and taken away as slaves! Wouldn't we be better off going back to Egypt?”

4 Zamagra zamagra ke ohumi ahumi hu'za anage hu'naze, tagra'a tavesite mago kva ne' azeri otisunkeno, ete tavreno Isipi mopare vanie!

They said to one another, “Let's choose a new leader us and go back to Egypt.”

5 Anante Mosese'ene Aronikea maka Israeli vahe'mokizmi zamufi zanavugosaregati mopafi mase'na'e.

Moses and Aaron fellfacedown on the ground in front of all the assembled Israelites.

6 Ana hakeno Nun nemofo Josua'ene, Jefune nemofo Kalepike, zanagra ana mopa vu'ne ome ke'na'a netre'moke, kukenaznia vararo varuru nehu'ne,

Joshua, son of Nun, and Caleb, son of Jephunneh, were there. They had been part of the group who had gone to spy out the land. They ripped their clothes,

7 amanage hu'ne maka Israeli vahe kevua zamasmi'na'e, Ana mopama ome ke'nona mopamo'a knare zantfa hu'ne.

and told the Israelites, “The country we traveled through and explored has very good land.

8 Ra Anumzamo'ma muse (plis) hurantesuno'a, henka tagrira ana mopare tavreno vuno, ami rine tumemofo rimo'ene avite'nea mopa ome tamigahie.

If the Lord is happy with us, he will take us there and give it to us, a land that's so productive it's like flowing with milk and honey.

9 Ra Anumzamofo kea magore huta ru ha'ontagiho. Ana mopafima nemaniza vaheku'enena korera osiho, zamagra tagri nezasegahaze. Zamagri'ma refiteno kegava krizmante'nea zana eri atregahie. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a tagrane mani'neanki zamagrikura korera osiho,

Don't rebel and fight against the Lord. You don't need to be afraid of the people living there in the country—we can take them easily! They're defenseless and the Lord is with us. Don't be frightened of them!”

10 Hianagi ana maka vahe'mo'za have kano eri'za zanahe fri'za nehazageno, anante Ra Anumzamofo msazamo seli mono nonte eramino Israeli vahe zamavuga efore hige'za ke'naze.

In reply all the people shouted out, “Stone them!” But the glory of the Lord suddenly appeared in the Tent of Meeting, right in the middle of the Israelites.

11 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asmi'ne. Nama'a zupa ama vahe'mo'za Nagrira zamagena hunenami'za, zamesi nonantaze? Nenagage'na maka kaguvaza amu'no zamifi eri fore hu'noa zankura, Nagrikura zamentintia nosazo?

The Lord told Moses, “How long are these people going to reject me? How long are these people going to refuse to trust in me despite all the miracles I have done right in front of them?

12 Nagra kri atrena zamahe fanane nehu'na, Mosesega naga ka'afinti kazeri ra ha'nena zamagatere'za hanave'nentake vahe fore hu'za, Israeli vahera zamagatere'za manigahaze.

I'm going to make them sick with a disease and kill them. Then I will make you into a nation that's greater and strong than them.”

13 Hu'neanagi Mosese'a ana kemofo nona'a Ra Anumzamofona amanage huno asmi'ne, ana kea Isipi vahe'mo'za antahigahaze, na'ankure Kagra hanavefi ama vahera, Isipi vahe amu'no zamifinti zamarenka e'nane.

But Moses told the Lord, “The Egyptians will find out about it! It was by your power that you led the Israelites out from among them.

14 Isipi Kenani mopafima nemaniza vahera zamasamigahaze. Kagrama Ra Anumzamoka ama vahe amuno zamifima nemaninana, zamagra hago antahi'naze. Kagra Ra Anumzamoka zamufinti negagazagenka Kagra hamponu refite nezmantenka, Kagra Israeli vahe'mokizmi vugotezmantenka vimago hampompi nevunka, zagefina refite nezmantenka, hanimpina ana vimago hampompintira teve anefa hunka remsa huzmantenka nevane.

They will tell the people living in this country all about it. They've already heard that you, Lord, are with us Israelites, that you, Lord, are seen face to face, that your cloud stands guard over them, and that you lead them by a pillar of cloud during day and a pillar of fire at night.

15 Menima Kagrama, magoke vahe aheaza hunkama ama vahe'zaga zamahe sanke'za, maka ama mopama megaginefinti Kagri kagenkema nentahi'za vahe'mo'za amanage hugahaze,

If you kill all these people in one go, the nations who have heard about you will say,

16 Ra Anumzamo huhampri zamanteno huvempa huzmante'nea mopare zamavareno vugara osuno, ka'ma mopafi zamahe fanane hie hu'za hugahaze.

‘The Lord killed these people in the desert because he wasn't able to take them to the country he promised to give them. He's killed them all in desert!’

17 Hianagi menina, nagra nunamu hue, Kagrama hunana kere, Ra Anumzamoka atregeno hihamu hanavekamo'a eama hino.

Now, Lord, please demonstrate the extent of your power just as you have said:

18 Ra Anumzamofo rimpa ahe'zamo'a ame huno oranotigeno, rimpa fru huno avesinte zamo'a mareri avitegeno, kumi'ene kefozantine eri atre'nerante. Hianagi aza'o kasege'ama agatere'simofona, kumi'mofo nona'a nezmafanteti vuno, nemofonte vuteno henkama fore'ma hu anante anantema huno 3'o 4'a vahe'enema fore hu anante anante'ma hanaza vahete ana havizamo'a meno vugahie.

The Lord is slow to become angry and is full of trustworthy love, forgiving sin and rebellion. However, he will not allow the guilty to go unpunished, bringing the consequences of the parents' sin on their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

19 Kagra vagaore kavesizanka'agu nentahinka nunamu huanki kumi'zmi ama vahera atrezmanto. Ama vahe'ma Isipima mani'nagenka Kagrama kumizamima eri atrenka menima e'nana kna hunka eri atre zamanto.

Please forgive the sin of these people since your trustworthy love is so great, in the same way that you have forgiven them from the time they left Egypt until now.”

20 Anage higeno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asmi'ne, Nagra kema nasmi'naza hu'na kumi'zmia eri atre zamantegahue.

“I have forgiven them as you asked,” the Lord replied.

21 Hianagi tamage hu'na Nagra kasefa hu'na mani'noa Anumzamo'na huankino, Ra Anumzamo'na hihamune, msazamo e'nena maka mopafi vuno eno huno avitegahie.

“But even so, as I live and as the whole earth is filled with the Lord's glory,

22 Tamage hu'za maka vahe'mo'za Nagri masane kaguvazana Isipine, ka'ma hagege mopafine eri fore huge'za nege'zagi, anazankura ontahi'za 10ni'a zupa Nagrira renahe'za nege'za, Nagri kemofona amagera onte'naze.

not a single one of the those who saw my glory and the miracles I did in Egypt and in the desert—but provoked me and refused to obey me time and time again—

23 Ana hu'nazagu tamage hu'za nezmafama huvempa hu'na Nagrani'a zami'noa mopa, namefiga'a ke nehazamo'za onke'tfa hugahaze.

not a single one of them is ever going to see the country I promised to give their forefathers. None of those who rejected me will see it.

24 Hianagi Nagri eri'za ne' Kalepi'a kegahie. Na'ankure agripina ruzahu avamu me'negeno maka agu'areti huno Nagrira maka zampina namage ante'negu ana mopare Nagra avre'na vanugeno, ana mopa agehe'za eri nafa'a hugahaze.

But because my servant Caleb has a totally different spirit and is fully committed to me, I will lead him to the country he visited, and his descendants will own it.

25 Menia Ameleki vahe'ene Kenani vahe'mo'za ana aguporamimpina mani'nazagu, okina rukre hunka ka'ma hagage mopafi ru kitaginka Koranke Hageri me'nerega vuo.

Since the Amalekites and Canaanites are living in the valleys, tomorrow you are to turn around and head back into the desert, taking the route towards the Red Sea.”

26 Ra Anumzamo'a anage huno Mosesene, Aronikizni znasami'ne,

The Lord told Moses and Aaron,

27 Nama'a zupa ama'i kumike vea kevumo'za, Nagri'ma huhaviza hunenantaza vahe'mokizmi knazana erigahue? Israeli vahe'mo'za Nagri'ma hunenantaza kea nentahue.

“How much longer are these wicked people going to criticize me? I've heard what they're saying, making complaints against me.

28 Menina zamasmio, tamage hu'na kasefa hu'na mani'noa Ra Anumzamo'na nehue, nagesa kami'nogenka hankena antahuankina inankna zanku'ma hana zana amne hugahue.

Go and tell them, ‘As I live, declares the Lord, I'll do just what I heard you say you wanted, believe me!

29 Kagrama hampri'nana vahe'ene, maka 20'a kafureti mareri anagate'nesia vahe'ene, Nagri'ma namefi'age hu'nesaza vahe'mo'za ka'ma hagege mopafi fregahaze.

All of you will die in this desert, everyone who was registered in the census that counted those aged twenty or over, because you made complaints against me.

30 Tamage huvempa hurmante'na tamagri tamamigahuema hu'noa mopafina ovugahaze. Hianagi Jefune nemofo Kalepi'ene Nuni nemofo Josuake, zanagrake vugaha'e.

Absolutely none of you will enter the country I promised to give you to live in, except for Caleb, son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, son of Nun.

31 Hianagi tamagrama huta, mofavreti zamahe fanane hugahaze huta koro'ma hu'naza mopare, ana mofavremokizmi Nagra zamavare'na vanuge'za, i'oma hu'naza mopa ome erigahaze.

However, I will take your children—those you said would be taken away as plunder—into the country you rejected, and they will appreciate it.

32 Hagi tamagra, ama ka'ma hagage mopafi frigahaze!

But you—you are all going to die in this desert.

33 Hagi tamagrama Nagri kemofo amage onte'naza nona'a, mofavretmimo'za ama ka'ma hagage mopafi 40'a kafufina knazana eri'za vano nehu'za, anama maka'mo'za ama ka'ma hagage kokampi frigahaze.

Your children will wander in the desert for forty years, suffering because of your lack of trust until all your bodies lie buried in the desert.

34 Zamagrama ana mopafi 40'a zagegnafi vano nehu'za oku'a afure'za kenazankna huta, kumi'tmimofo nona mago mago knamo'a mago mago kafu huvame hanigeta, 40'a kafufi knazana erita vano hugahaze. Nagrama hurmantesua navu'navara kegahaze.

Just as you explored the country for forty days, so shall your punishment for your sins be forty years, a year for every day, and you will see what happens when I oppose you.

35 Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na kea nehue, kumike vahe'mo'za atru hu'za Nagri'ma hu haviza nehazana tamage hu'na kna zamigahue. Ama ka'ma hagage mopafi zamazeri haviza ha'nena fri hana hugahaze.

I, the Lord, have spoken! Just see if I won't do this to all these wicked Israelites who have got together to oppose me! They will end their lives in the desert—they will die there.’”

36 Mosese'ma huzmantege'za oku'a vu'za mopa ome afure'za kete'za e'naza vahe'mo'za maka vahe kevu havige eme zamasmi'naze.

The men that Moses had sent to explore the country—those who came back and because they gave a bad report they made all the Israelites complain against the Lord—

37 Hagi mopa afureho huno huzmantege'za vute'za, ete eza havige eme hu'naza vahera, Ra Anumzamo'a kri atregeno zamahe fri'ne.

those men who gave the bad report died before the Lord from plague.

38 Hianagi huzamantege'za vuza mopama ome afure'za ome kete'za e'naza nagapintira, Nun nemofo Josuane, Jefune nemofo Kalepikizni znatregeke zanagrake mani'na'e.

The only ones who lived were Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh of those who went to explore the country.

39 Mosese'ma ana kema Israeli vahe'ma nezmasmige'za, vahe kevumo'za tusiza hu'za zavira nete'za zamasunku hu'naze.

When Moses told the Israelites what the Lord had said they were very, very sad.

40 Hianagi ame' nanterampi oti'za mika'zazimia tro hu'za agonarega mareri'za nevu'za anage hu'naze, Tagra ama one, tamage kumi' hu'nonanagi, Ra Anumzamo'ma huhampri tante'nea moparega vugahune.

They got up early the next morning planning to go into the hill country. “Yes we really did sin,” they said, “but now we're here and we'll go where the Lord told us.”

41 Hagi Mosese'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Tamagri antahizamo'a eri'zana e'origahie. Tamagra Ra Anumzamofo ke ruha'nentagize.

But Moses objected. “Why are you disobeying the Lord's command? You won't succeed in your plan!

42 Anantega Anumzamo'a tamagranena ovanigeno ha' vahetamimo'za tamahegahazanki tamagra mareorigahaze.

Don't try and go, otherwise you will be killed by your enemies, because the Lord isn't with you.

43 Tamagri ha' vahe'mo'za Ameleki vahe'ene Kenani vahe'mo'zatamavuga mani'nazeanki'za kazinknonteti tamahegahaze. Hagi Ra Anumzamofo ke'a tamefi hunte'naza nona'a, Ra Anumzamo'a tamagra'nena ovugahie.

The Amalekites and Canaanites living there will attack you, and you will die by the sword. Because you rejected the Lord, he won't help you.”

44 Hianagi mago'a Israeli vahe'mo'za Mosese kea eri amne nehu'za, agonarega mareri'za vu'naze. Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisimo'a anampi me'negeno, Mosese'enena kumara atreno ovu'ne.

But they were arrogant and went up into the hill country, even though Moses and the Ark of the Lord's Agreement didn't move from the camp.

45 Hagi Ameleki vahe'ene Kenani vahe'ma ana agona mopafi nemaniza vahe'mo'za erami'za zamahe'za zamarotgo hazage'za fre'za Homa kumate ehanati'naze.

The Amalekites and Canaanites who lived there in the hill country came down and attacked the Israelites and defeated them, and chased them all the way to Hormah.
