Nomery 11

1 Ary dia nitaraim-pahoriana teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ny olona, ary nony ren’ i Jehovah izany, dia nirehitra ny fahatezerany, ary ny afon’ i Jehovah nandoro azy, ka may ny teo an-tsisin’ ny toby.

And it came to pass that as the people complained in a manner displeasing in the ears of the Lord, the Lord heard it, and his anger was kindled, and the fire of the Lord burnt among them, and consumed at the uttermost part of the camp.

2 Dia nitaraina tamin’ i Mosesy ny olona; ary Mosesy nifona tamin’ i Jehovah, dia maty ny afo.

And the people then cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto the Lord, and the fire disappeared.

3 Ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany dia nataony hoe Tabera, satria nandoro azy ny afon’ i Jehovah.

And he called the name of the place Tab'erah; because the fire of the Lord had burnt among them.

4 Ary ny olona hafa firenena izay niharo taminy dia liana, ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely koa dia nitomany indray hoe: Enga anie ka hisy hanome hena hohaninay!

And the mixed multitude that was among them felt a lustful longing: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who will give us flesh to eat?

5 Tsaroanay ny hazandrano izay nohaninay, maimaim-poana tany Egypta mbamin’ ny voatango sy tongolo samy hafa karazana.

We remember the fish, which we could eat in Egypt for naught; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;

6 Fa izao dia maina ny ainay: tsy misy na inona na inona eto imasonay afa-tsy ny mana ihany.

But now our soul is faint: there is nothing at all, only to the manna are our eyes [directed].

7 Ary ny mana dia toy ny voan-drafy, ary ny tarehiny dia tahaka ny tarehin’ ny bedola.

But the manna was like coriander-seed, and its color as the color of the bdellium.

8 Nandehandeha ny olona ka nanangona azy, dia nitoto azy tamin’ ny fikosoham-bary na tamin’ ny laona, ary nahandro azy tamin’ ny vilany, dia nanao mofo azy; ary ny fanandramana azy dia tahaka ny fanandramana mofo misy diloilo.

The people went about and gathered it, and ground it in a mill, or pounded it in a mortar, and boiled it in a pot, or made cakes of it: and its taste was as the taste of cakes mixed with oil.

9 Ary raha nilatsaka tamin’ ny toby ny ando nony alina, dia nilatsaka koa niaraka taminy ny mana.

And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.

10 Ary Mosesy nandre ny olona nitomany tamin’ ny isam-pianakaviany, samy teo amin’ ny varavaran’ ny lainy avy; dia nirehitra fatratra ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah; ary tsy sitrak’ i Mosesy koa izany.

And Moses heard the people weep according to their families, every man at the door of his tent: and the anger of the Lord was kindled greatly; and in the eyes of Moses also was it displeasing.

11 Dia hoy Mosesy tamin’ i Jehovah: Nahoana no dia nasianao ratsy ny mpanomponao? ary nahoana no tsy nahita fitia eo imasonao aho, ka nampitondrainao enta-mavesatra, dia ity firenena rehetra ity?

And Moses said unto the Lord, Wherefore hast thou done evil to thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favor in thy eyes, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?

12 Izaho va no torontoronina an’ ity firenena rehetra ity? ary izaho va no niteraka azy, no ilazanao hoe: Trotroinao izy, tahaka ny ray mpitaiza mitondra ny zaza minono, ho any amin’ ny tany izay nianiananao tamin’ ny razany homena azy?

Was it I who have conceived all this people? or was it I who have begotten them? that thou shouldst say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou hast sworn unto their fathers?

13 Avy aiza no hahazoako hena homena ity firenena rehetra ity, no dia mitomany amiko izy manao hoe: Omeo hena izahay hohaninay?

Whence shall I obtain flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep around me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.

14 Tsy zakako izaho irery ny mitondra ity firenena rehetra ity, fa mavesatra amiko loatra.

I am not able by myself alone to bear all this people, because it is too heavy for me.

15 Koa raha izao no ataonao amiko, masìna Hianao, vonoy mihitsy aho, raha nahita fitia eo imasonao; fa aza avela hahita ny fahoriako aho.

And if thou wilt thus deal with me, then slay me, I pray thee, at once, if I have found favor in thy eyes: that I may not see my wretchedness.

16 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Manangòna fito-polo lahy amin’ ny loholon’ ny Isiraely ho etỳ amiko, dia izay fantatrao ho loholona amin’ ny fireneny sy mpifehy azy; ary ento miaraka aminao ho ao amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana izy.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and its officers; and take them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall stand there with thee.

17 Dia hidina Aho ka hiteny aminao eo; ary Izaho haka amin’ ny Fanahy Izay ao aminao ka hametraka izany ao amin’ ireo, ary hiara-mitondra ity firenena ity aminao ireo, fa tsy ianao irery intsony no hitondra azy.

And I will come down and speak with thee there: and I will take some of the spirit which is upon thee, and I will put it upon them; and they shall bear with thee the burden of the people, and thou shalt not bear it by thyself alone.

18 Koa lazao amin’ ny olona hoe: Manamasìna ny tenanareo ho amin’ ny ampitso, dia hihinan-kena ianareo; fa nitomany teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ianareo ka nanao hoe: Enga anie ka hisy hanome hena hohaninay! fa soa no hitanay tany Egypta; dia homen’ i Jehovah hena ianareo, ka hohaninareo.

And unto the people shalt thou say, Hold yourselves ready against tomorrow, that ye may eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was better with us in Egypt: thus will the Lord give you flesh, and ye shall eat.

19 Tsy indray andro no hihinananareo na indroa andro, na hadimiana, na hafoloana, na roa-polo andro aza,

Not one day shall ye eat, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days;

20 fa hatramin’ ny iray volana mipaka, dia mandra-pivoakany amin’ ny vavoronareo ka haharikoriko anareo; satria nolavinareo Jehovah, Izay eo aminareo, ka nitomany teo anatrehany ianareo nanao hoe: Nahoana re no nivoaka avy tany Egypta izahay?

But up to a full month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it become loathsome unto you; because that ye have despised the Lord who is in the midst of you, and ye have wept before him, saying, Why did we come forth out of Egypt?

21 Dia hoy Mosesy: Ny olona izay itoerako dia lehilahy enina hetsy izay mahalia lalana; ary hoy ianao: Homeko hena izy mba hohaniny mandritra ny iray volana.

And Moses said, Six hundred thousand men on foot is the people, in the midst of whom I am; and yet thou hast said, Flesh will I give them, that they may eat a whole month.

22 Moa ondry aman’ osy sy omby va no hovonoina ho azy hahavoky azy? sa ny hazandrano rehetra ao amin’ ny ranomasina no hangonina ho azy hahavoky azy?

Shall flocks and herds be slain for them, that they may suffice for them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, that they may suffice for them?

23 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Nihafohy va ny tànan’ i Jehovah? ankehitriny dia ho hitanao na ho tanteraka aminao ny teniko, na tsia.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Should the Lord's hand be too short? now shalt thou see whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not.

24 Dia nivoaka Mosesy ka nilaza ny tenin’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny olona; dia nanangona fito-polo lahy tamin’ ny loholon’ ny firenena izy ka nampitoetra azy manodidina ny trano-lay.

And Moses went out, and spoke to the people the words of the Lord; and he assembled seventy men from the elders of the people, and placed them round about the tabernacle.

25 Ary nidina teo amin’ ny rahona Jehovah ka niteny taminy, dia nangalany ny Fanahy izay tao amin’ i Mosesy ka napetrany tao amin’ ny loholona fito-polo lahy; ary raha mbola nitoetra tao aminy ny Fanahy, dia naminany izy, nefa tsy nanao intsony.

And the Lord came down in a cloud and spoke unto him; and he took some of the spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy men, the elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, but they did not so any more.

26 Fa nisy roa lahy nijanona teo an-toby, Eldada no anaran’ ny anankiray, ary Medada no anaran’ ny anankiray; ary ny Fanahy nitoetra tao aminy; ary isan’ izay voasoratra izy roa lahy, nefa tsy mba nankeo amin’ ny trano-lay; dia naminany teo an-toby izy roa lahy.

And there remained two men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of those that were written down, but they had not gone out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp.

27 Ary nisy zatovo nihazakazaka, dia nilaza tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe: Eldada sy Medada maminany etsy an-toby.

And there ran a young man, and told to Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.

28 Dia namaly Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, izay nanompo an’ i Mosesy hatry ny fony tanora, ka nanao hoe: Ry Mosesy, tompoko, rarao izy roa lahy.

And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses from his youth, answered and said, My Lord Moses, forbid them.

29 Fa hoy Mosesy taminy: Izaho va no ialonanao? enga anie ka ho mpaminany avokoa ny olon’ i Jehovah rehetra, ka halatsak’ i Jehovah aminy ny Fanahiny!

And Moses said unto him, Art thou zealous for my sake? And oh that one might render all the people of the Lord prophets, that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!

30 Dia nankeo an-toby Mosesy sy ny loholon’ ny Isiraely.

And Moses retired back into thy camp, he with the elders of Israel.

31 Ary nisy rivotra nivoaka avy tamin’ i Jehovah ka nitondra papelika avy tany amin’ ny ranomasina ary nampihahakahaka azy teny amin’ ny toby, ka tokony ho lalana indray andro manodidina ny toby no nisy azy, ary tokony ho roa hakiho ambonin’ ny tany izy.

And a wind went forth from the Lord, and drove up quails from the sea, and scattered them over the camp, about a day's journey on this side, and about a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and about two cubits high over the face of the earth.

32 Dia nitsangana ny olona nandritra izany andro izany sy nandritra ny alina sy ny ampitson’ iny koa ka nanangona ny papelika; ary izay kely fanangona no folo homera; ary nahahiny ho maina ireny manodidina ny toby.

And the people arose all that day, and all that night, and all the following day, and they gathered the quails; he that had taken the least, had gathered ten chomers: and they spread them out for themselves round about the camp.

33 Fa raha mbola teo am-bavany ny hena ka tsy mbola lany, dia nirehitra tamin’ ny olona ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ary namely ny olony tamin’ ny kapoka mafy indrindra Izy.

The flesh was yet between their teeth, it was not yet chewed: when the wrath of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord smote among the people a very great plague.

34 Ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany nataony hoe: Kibrota-hatava, satria teo no nandevenana ny olona izay liana.

And he called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah; because there they buried the people that had lustfully craved.

35 Ary niala tao Kibrota-hatava ny olona ka nifindra nankany Hazerota; dia nitoetra tany Hazerota izy.

From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed unto Chazeroth; and they remained at Chazeroth.
