Oekyuk 14

1 Na mwet uh tung fong nufon sac ke sripen nikanla ac fosrnga lalos.

And all the congregation lifts up, and they give forth their voice, and the people weep during that night;

2 Elos torkaskas lainul Moses ac Aaron, ac fahk, “Lukun wona kut funu misa na Egypt, ku finne inge yen mwesis uh!

and all the sons of Israel murmur against Moses and against Aaron, and all the congregation says to them, “O that we had died in the land of Egypt, or in this wilderness, O that we had died!

3 Efu ku LEUM GOD Elan uskutla nu in acn sac tuh kut in misa ke mweun, ac mutan kiasr ac tulik natusr uh ac muta in sruoh. Mea, ac tia wo kut in folokla nu Egypt?”

And why is YHWH bringing us to this land to fall by the sword, [that] our wives and our infants become a prey? Is it not good for us to return to Egypt?”

4 Ouinge elos fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Wona kut in sulela sie mwet kol nu sesr sifacna, ac folokla nu Egypt!”

And they say to one another, “Let us appoint a head and return to Egypt.”

5 Na Moses ac Aaron faksufi ye mutun mwet nukewa.

And Moses falls—Aaron also—on their faces, before all the assembly of the congregation of the sons of Israel.

6 Ac Joshua wen natul Nun, ac Caleb wen natul Jephunneh, luo sin mwet kalngeyuk uh, eltal seya nuknuk laltal ke sripen asor laltal

And Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, of those spying out the land, have torn their garments,

7 ac fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Facl se su kut kalngeyuk we ah, acn na wowo se.

and they speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, “The land into which we have passed over to spy it out [is] a very, very good land;

8 LEUM GOD fin insewowo sesr, El ac uskutla nu we ac ase nu sesr facl na mut ac kasrup fohk we sac.

if YHWH has delighted in us, then He has brought us into this land, and has given it to us, a land which is flowing with milk and honey;

9 Nik kowos lain LEUM GOD, ac nimet sangeng sin mwet we uh. Ac arulana fisrasr kut in kutangulosla. LEUM GOD El wi kut, ac El kutangla tari god su karinganulos. Ke sripa inge nik kowos sangeng.”

only, do not rebel against YHWH: and you, do not fear the people of the land, for they [are] our bread; their defense has turned aside from off them, and YHWH [is] with us; do not fear them.”

10 Na u sac nufon nunku elos in tanglaltal nwe ke na eltal misa. Tusruktu in kitin pacl ah na mwet uh liye kalem wolana ma akkalemye sikme lun LEUM GOD oan fin Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.

And all the congregation says to stone them with stones, and the glory of YHWH has appeared in the Tent of Meeting to all the sons of Israel.

11 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Mwet inge ac pilesreyu nwe ngac? Putaka elos ac srangesr lulalfongiyu, nga ne orala mwenmen puspis inmasrlolos?

And YHWH says to Moses, “Until when does this people despise Me? And until when do they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have done in its midst?

12 Nga fah supwama sie mas upa in onelosla, tusruktu nga fah oru kom in papa tumun sie mutunfacl yohk ac ku lukelos!”

I strike it with pestilence, and dispossess it, and make you become a nation greater and mightier than it.”

13 Na Moses el fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, “Kom tuh use mwet inge liki acn Egypt ke ku lom. Pacl se mwet Egypt elos ac lohng ke ma kom oru nu sin mwet lom,

And Moses says to YHWH, “Then the Egyptians have heard! For with Your power You have brought up this people out of their midst,

14 elos ac srumun nu sin mwet su muta in facl se inge. Mwet inge lohng tari lah kom, LEUM GOD, kom wi kut, ac kom sikyak ac liyeyuk kalem ke pacl se pukunyeng lom tuhwi facsr. Elos lohng pac lah kom fahsr meet liki kut in sie sru in pukunyeng ke len, ac ke sie sru in e ke fong.

and they have said [it] to the inhabitant of this land, they have heard that You, YHWH, [are] in the midst of this people, that You are seen eye to eye—O YHWH, and Your cloud is standing over them—and in a pillar of cloud You are going before them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.

15 Inge kom fin onela mwet lom nukewa, na mutanfahl su lohng pweng keim, elos fah fahk lah

And You have put to death this people as one man, and the nations who have heard Your fame have spoken, saying,

16 kom onela mwet lom in acn mwesis ke sripen kom tia ku in usalosla nu in facl se su kom wuleang mu kom ac sang nu selos.

From YHWH’s want of ability to bring in this people to the land which He has sworn to them, He slaughters them in the wilderness.

17 Ouinge, LEUM GOD, nga pre ac siyuk tuh kom in akkalemye ku lom nu sesr, ac oru ma kom wulela kac ke kom fahk mu,

And now, please let the power of my Lord be great, as You have spoken, saying,

18 ‘Nga LEUM GOD, nga tia sa in mulat, ac nga fahkak lungkulang, oaru, ac nunak munas ke ma koluk ac ma sutuu lun mwet uh. Tusruk nga fah tia mulkunla in kai papa ac nina su oru ma koluk, oayapa tulik natulos ac nutin natulos nu ke fwil aktolu ac akakosr.’

YHWH [is] slow to anger and of great kindness, bearing away iniquity and transgression, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on a third and on a fourth [generation]—

19 Inge, LEUM GOD, fal nu ke lungse lulap lom su tiana ekyek, nga kwafe sum, sisla koluk lun mwet inge, oana ke kom nuna nunak munas nu selos oe ke pacl se elos illa liki acn Egypt me!”

please forgive the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Your kindness, and as You have borne with this people from Egypt, even until now.”

20 LEUM GOD El topuk, “Nga fah nunak munas nu selos, oana ke kom siyuk.

And YHWH says, “I have forgiven according to your word,

21 Tusruktu, in oana ke nga moul, ac ku luk ac wolana luk oasr yen nukewa faclu nufon,

but nevertheless, as I live, indeed, the whole earth is filled [with] the glory of YHWH,

22 nga wulela mu wangin sie sin mwet inge ac fah moul in wi utyak nu in facl sac. Elos liye tari kalem wolana luk ac mwenmen ma nga tuh oru in facl Egypt ac yen mwesis. Ne ouinge, elos nuna srikeyu na, ac pusla pacl elos tia akosyu.

for all the men who are seeing My glory and My signs which I have done in Egypt and in the wilderness, and try Me these ten times, and have not listened to My voice—

23 Elos ac fah tiana utyak nu in facl se su nga wulela nu sin mwet matu lalos. Wangin sie selos su pilesreyu fah liye acn we.

they do not see the land which I have sworn to their fathers, indeed, none of those despising Me see it;

24 Tusruktu ke sripen nunak lal Caleb, mwet kulansap luk, sie liki na mwet ngia, ac el srakna oru ma lungse luk ke inse pwaye, nga fah usalla nu in facl sac su el tuh wi kalngeyuk we, ac fwilin tulik natul fah eis lalos acn we.

but My servant Caleb, because there has been another spirit with him, and he is fully after Me—I have brought him into the land to where he has entered, and his seed possesses it.

25 In pacl inge mwet Amalek ac mwet Canaan elos muta infahlfal lun acn we, ouinge kowos in forla ac som nu yen mwesis ke inkanek nu Meoa Srusra.”

And the Amalekite and the Canaanite are dwelling in the valley; tomorrow turn and journey for yourselves into the wilderness—the way of the Red Sea.”

26 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,

And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

27 “Mwet koluk inge ac torkaskas lainyu nwe ngac? Fal tari lohngyen torkaskas inge sik.

“Until when [do I bear] with this evil congregation—they who are murmuring against Me? The murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they are murmuring against Me, I have heard;

28 Sang top luk inge nu selos: “Nga fulahk lah in oana ke nga moul, nga fah oru nu suwos oana ke kowos siyuk. Nga LEUM GOD pa kaskas.

say to them: As I live—a declaration of YHWH—if, as you have spoken in My ears, do I not do so to you?

29 Kowos fah misa, ac mano misa lowos ac fah afunla yen mwesis uh. Mweyen kowos torkaskas na lainyu, tia sie suwos su yac longoul matwayak fah wi utyak nu in facl sac.

Your carcasses fall in this wilderness, even all your numbered ones, to all your number, from a son of twenty years and upward, who have murmured against Me;

30 Nga tuh wulela mu nga ac oru tuh kowos in muta we, tuh pa tia sie suwos ac sun, sayal Caleb ac Joshua.

you do not come into the land [for] which I have lifted up My hand to cause you to dwell in it, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

31 Kowos tuh fahk mu tulik nutuwos ac mau mwet sruoh, tusruktu nga ac usalosme nu in facl se su kowos sifacna liskowosla liki, ac facl sac fah ma selos.

As for your infants—of whom you have said, They become a spoil—I have even brought them in, and they have known the land which you have kicked against;

32 A funu kowos, kowos fah misa yen mwesis se inge.

as for you—your carcasses fall in this wilderness,

33 Tulik nutuwos ac fah forfor yen mwesis yac angngaul, ac keok ke sripen ma koluk lowos, nwe ke mwet safla se ke fwil se inge misa.

and your sons are shepherding in the wilderness [for] forty years, and have borne your whoredoms until your carcasses are consumed in the wilderness;

34 Mwatan ma koluk lowos uh ac oru kowos in keok ke yac angngaul — yac se nu ke kais sie len kowos tuh oru kalngeyuk lowos in acn sac. Kowos ac fah arulana pulakunak luman lain luk nu suwos.

by the number of the days [in] which you spied out the land, forty days—a day for a year, a day for a year—you bear your iniquities [for] forty years, and you have known My opposition;

35 Nga fulahk lah nga ac oru ouinge nu sin mwet koluk nukewa su tukeni nu sie lainyu. Kais sie suwos fah misa yen mwesis se inge. Nga LEUM GOD pa kaskas!”

I, YHWH, have spoken; if, nonetheless, I do this to all this evil congregation who are meeting against Me—they are consumed in this wilderness, and there they die.”

36 Mwet su Moses el tuh supwala in oru kalngeyuk lalos ke facl sac, ke elos foloko elos tuh fahkak kas tia pwaye ke acn sac, pa pwanang mwet Israel nukewa torkaskas lain LEUM GOD.

Then the men whom Moses has sent to spy out the land, [who] then return and cause all the congregation to murmur against him by bringing out an evil account concerning the land,

37 Ke sripa se inge, LEUM GOD El sang sie mas upa ac onela mwet kalngeyuk inge.

even the men bringing out an evil account of the land, they die by the plague before YHWH;

38 Joshua ac Caleb mukena moul inmasrlon mwet kalngeyuk singoul luo ah.

and Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh have lived, of those men who go to spy out the land.

39 Ke Moses el fahkang nu sin mwet Israel ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel uh, elos tung ac arulana asor.

And Moses speaks these words to all the sons of Israel, and the people mourn exceedingly,

40 Toangna in lotu tok ah elos mukuiyak in utyak ac eisla acn nu fineol uh. Elos fahk, “Inge kut akola in utyak nu fin acn se su LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sesr kac. Pwaye lah kut tuh oru ma koluk.”

and they rise early in the morning, and go up to the top of the mountain, saying, “Here we [are], and we have come up to the place which YHWH has spoken of, for we have sinned.”

41 Tusruktu Moses el fahk, “Na efu kowos ku srakna fahsr sayen ma sap lun LEUM GOD? Ma kowos oru inge ac tia ku in wo ouiya!

And Moses says, “Why [is] this [that] you are transgressing the command of YHWH? For it does not prosper;

42 Nik kowos som. LEUM GOD El tia wi kowos, ac mwet lokoalok lowos ac fah kutangkowosla.

do not go up, for YHWH is not in your midst, and you are not struck before your enemies;

43 Ke kowos ac tuyang in lain mwet Amalek ac mwet Canaan uh, kowos ac misa ke mweun. LEUM GOD El ac tia wi kowos, ke sripen kowos tia lungse fahsr tokol.”

for the Amalekite and the Canaanite [are] there before you, and you have fallen by the sword, because that you have turned back from after YHWH, and YHWH is not with you.”

44 Ne ouinge elos kwafeang na in utyak nu fineol uh, finne Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD ac Moses srakna muta in nien aktuktuk uh.

And they presume to go up to the top of the mountain, but the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, and Moses, have not departed out of the midst of the camp.

45 Na mwet Amalek ac mwet Canaan su muta fineol uh elos sroang mweunelos ac kutangulosla, ac ukwalos na nwe ke sun acn Hormah.

And the Amalekite and the Canaanite who are dwelling in that mountain come down and strike them, and beat them down to Hormah.
