Nomery 14
1 Aa le nañonjom-peo am-pangolalaihañe i valobohòkey, naho nangololoike ty rovetse amy haleñey ondatio,
Then all the people gave load cries of grief, and all that night they gave themselves up to weeping.
2 vaho nitoreo amy Mosè naho amy Aharone o ana’ Israele iabio; le nanoe’ i valobohòkey ty hoe, Ee t’ie nivetrak’ an-tane Mitsraime ao! Ndra kitra’e nikoromak’ am-patrambey atoa!
And all the children of Israel, crying out against Moses and Aaron, said, If only we had come to our death in the land of Egypt, or even in this waste land!
3 Ino ty nandesa’ Iehovà mb’an-tane atoy ho tsingoritrìem-pibara reke-keleiañe ho tsindroke; tsy hàmake t’ie himpoly mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo?
Why is the Lord taking us into this land to come to our death by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will get into strange hands: would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?
4 Aa le hoe ty fivesoveso’ iareo, Antao hijoboñe mpiaolo vaho himpoly mb’e Mitsraime añe.
And they said to one another, Let us make a captain over us, and go back to Egypt.
5 Nibabok’ an-daharañe añatrefa’ i fivorim-balobohò’ o ana’ Israeleoy amy zao t’i Mosè naho i Aharone.
Then Moses and Aaron went down on their faces before the meeting of the people.
6 le nandriatse sarimbo t’Iehosoa ana’ i None naho i Kalebe ana’ Iefonè, i nimpiamo nitingañe i taneio rey;
And Joshua, the son of Nun, and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, two of those who had been to see the land, giving signs of grief,
7 le hoe ty enta’ iareo amy valobohò’ Israeley, I tane nirangà’ay mpitingañeo le tane loho fanjaka.
Said to all the children of Israel, This land which we went through to see is a very good land.
8 Aa naho noro’ Iehovà tika, le ie ty hanese naho hanolotse antika i taney, toe tane orikorihen-dronono naho tantele.
And if the Lord has delight in us, he will take us into this land and give it to us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
9 Aa ko miola am’ Iehovà, ko mirevendreveñe am’ondati’ i taneio, ie fitsindrohan-tika; toe nisitak’ am’ iereo ty fañarova’e vaho amantika t’Iehovà. Ko ihembañañe.
Only, do not go against the Lord or go in fear of the people of the land, for they will be our food; their strength has been taken from them and the Lord is with us: have no fear of them.
10 Fe vinola’ i fivoribey iabiy t’ie haretsam-bato, vaho niboak’ amo ana’ Israele iabio, an-kibohom-pamantañañe ey, ty enge’ Iehovà.
But all the people said they were to be stoned. Then the glory of the Lord was seen in the Tent of meeting, before the eyes of all the children of Israel.
11 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Pak’ ombia ty mbe hañinjea’ ondaty retiañe ahy? Ampara’ ombia t’ie mbe tsy hahafiato amako ty amo hene viloñe nanoeko añivo’ iereoo.
And the Lord said to Moses, How long will this people have no respect for me? how long will they be without faith, in the face of all the signs I have done among them?
12 Ho paoheko angorosy naho harotsako, vaho ihe ty hanoeko foko ra’elahy mandikoatse naho maozatse te ama’e.
I will send disease on them for their destruction, and take away their heritage, and I will make of you a nation greater and stronger than they.
13 Aa hoe t’i Mosè am’ Iehovà, Le ho tsanòñe’ o nte-Mitsraimeo, te i haozara’oy ty nañavota’o ondaty retiañe boak’ añivo’ iareo ao,
And Moses said to the Lord, Then it will come to the ears of the Egyptians; for by your power you took this people out from among them;
14 le hatao’ iareo amo mpimone’ ty tane toio, te tsinano’ iereo te ihe ry Iehovà ro añivo’ ondaty retoañe, amy te Ihe ry Iehovà ro ifañatrefan-daharañe naho mitroatse ambone’ iereo i raho’oy, vaho ihe ro Fiaolo’ iareo amy rahoñe mijoalay te handro naho añ’afo mitiotiotse te haleñe.
And they will give the news to the people of this land: they have had word that you, Lord, are present with this people, letting yourself be seen face to face, and that your cloud is resting over them, and that you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.
15 Aa naho zamane’o hoe ondaty raike ondaty retiañe, le hanao ty hoe o tane iaby nahajanjiñe ty hara’elahi’oo,
Now if you put to death all this people as one man, then the nations who have had word of your glory will say,
16 Kanao tsy nahafanese ondaty retiañe mb’an-tane nitolora’e am-panta mb’eo t’Iehovà, le nimongore’e an-dratraratra añe.
Because the Lord was not able to take this people into the land which he made an oath to give them, he sent destruction on them in the waste land.
17 Aa le ihalaliako, ehe ho ra’elahy ty haozara’ i Talè amy nitsarae’o ty hoe,
So now, may my prayer come before you, and let the power of the Lord be great, as you said:
18 Malaon-kaviñerañe t’Iehovà naho lifo-pikokoa-migahiñe, mpampipoke hila naho fiòla, fe tsy apo’e ty manao hakeo, fa afetsa’e amo anakeo o tahin-droae’eo ami’ty tariratse faha-telo naho fahefatse.
The Lord is slow to wrath and great in mercy, overlooking wrongdoing and evil, and will not let wrongdoers go free; sending punishment on children for the sins of their fathers, to the third and fourth generation.
19 Miambane ama’o, apoho ty hakeo’ ondaty retiañe amy hara’ elahin-kafatraram-pikokoa’oy, manahake ty nampidòna’o ty hakeo’ ondaty retiañe e Mitsraime añe pake henane.
May the sin of this people have forgiveness, in the measure of your great mercy, as you have had mercy on them from Egypt up till now.
20 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà, Fa napoko ty amy enta’oy;
And the Lord said, I have had mercy, as you say:
21 fe kanao velon-dRaho, ho lifore’ ty enge’ Iehovà ty tane toy,
But truly, as I am living, and as all the earth will be full of the glory of the Lord;
22 le ze hene ondaty nahaisake o engekoo naho o viloñe nanoeko e Mitsraime naho am-patram-beio, ie fa nitso-pañahy ahiko fañimpolo’e henaneo, vaho tsy nañaoñe ty feoko,
Because all these men, having seen my glory and the signs which I have done in Egypt and in the waste land, still have put me to the test ten times, and have not given ear to my voice;
23 toe tsy ho isa’ iareo i tane nifantàko aman-droae’ iareoy, toe tsy ho isa’ o nañinje Ahio,
They will not see the land about which I made an oath to their fathers; not one of these by whom I have not been honoured will see it.
24 naho tsy i Kalebe mpitorokoy amy te hafa ty arofo ama’e le niventè’e t’ie mpañorik’ ahiko, aa le hendeseko mb’ an-tane nañaveloa’e mb’eo vaho ho lovae’ o tarira’eo.
But my servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit in him, and has been true to me with all his heart, him I will take into that land into which he went, and his seed will have it for their heritage.
25 Aa kanao mimoneñe am-bavatane ao o nte-Amalekeo naho o nte-Kanàneo, le mivioña nahareo te hamaray, vaho mionjona mb’ am-patrambey mb’amy lalañe migodañe mb’an-dRia-Binda mb’eoy.
Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites are in the valley; tomorrow, turning round, go into the waste land by the way to the Red Sea.
26 Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè naho amy Aharone:
Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
27 Pak’ombia ty hivaveako ty valobohòke lo-tsereke mañinje ahiko tia? Fa tsinanoko ty fiñeoñeo’ o ana’ Israeleo, ty fañinjea’ iareo ahiko.
How long am I to put up with this evil people and their outcries against me? The words which they say against me have come to my ears.
28 Saontsio am’ iereo, Kanao velon-dRaho, hoe t’Iehovà, le hanoeko ama’ areo i sinaontsi’ areo an-tsofikoy;
Say to them, By my life, says the Lord, as certainly as your words have come to my ears, so certainly will I do this to you:
29 toe hipopok’ am-patram-bey atoa ty lolo’ areo, ze fonga nivolilieñe ama’ areo, ze hene niaheñe ama’ areo mifototse ami’ty roapolo taoñe mañambone amo nañinje Ahikoo.
Your dead bodies will be stretched out in this waste land; and of all your number, all those of twenty years old and over who have been crying out against me,
30 Leo raike tsy himoak’ amy tane natoloko anahareo am-panta himoneña’ areoy, naho tsy i Kalebe ana’ Iefonè naho Iehosoa ana’ i None,
Not one will come into the land which I gave my word you would have for your resting-place, but only Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, the son of Nun.
31 le o amori’ areo kedekedeke natao’ areo ho tsindroheñeo; hendeseko ao iereo le ho fohi’ iareo i tane niheje’ areoy.
And your little ones, whom you said would come into strange hands, I will take in, and they will see the land which you would not have.
32 Inahareo ka, hifitak’ am-patrambey ao ty lolo’ areo,
But as for you, your dead bodies will be stretched in this waste land.
33 le hirererere am-patrambey ao efapolo taoñe o ana’ areoo, hivave ty hakarapiloa’ areo, ampara’ te vorok’ am-patrambey ao ty lolo’ areo.
And your children will be wanderers in the waste land for forty years, undergoing punishment for your false ways, till your bodies become dust in the waste land.
34 Mira ami’ty ia’ o andro nitingane’ areo i taneio, i efa-polo andro rezay, te songa havale taoñe raike i andro rey, ho vave’ areo ty tahi’ areo, aa le efa-polo taoñe ty hahafohina’ areo ty habosehako.
And as you went through the land viewing it for forty days, so for forty years, a year for every day, you will undergo punishment for your wrongdoing, and you will see that I am against you.
35 Izaho Iehovà ty nitaroñe. Tsy mete tsy henefeko ami’ty valobohòke lo-tsereke nihipoke hiatreatre amako tia, ie habotse’ ty fatram-bey toy naho toe hihomak’ ao.
I the Lord have said it, and this I will certainly do to all this evil people who have come together against me: in this waste land destruction will come on them, and death will be their fate.
36 Le ondaty nirahe’ i Mosè hitingañe i taneio, o nimpoly ninday saontsy nampitoreo i valobohòkey amy talily raty nendese’ iereo i taneiio,
And the men whom Moses sent to see the land, and who, by the bad account they gave of the land, were the cause of the outcry the people made against Moses,
37 le navetra’ ty angorosy añatrefa’ Iehovà ondaty ninday i talily raty ty amy taneio.
Those same men who said evil of the land, came to their death by disease before the Lord.
38 Iehosoa ana’ i None naho i Kalebe ana’ Iefonè avao ty mbe niveloñe amo nitingañe i taneio.
But Joshua, the son of Nun, and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, of those who went to see the land, were not touched by disease.
39 Aa le akore ty fihonto’ o ana’ Israeleo amy nitaroña’ i Mosè i entañe zaiy,
And when Moses put these words before the children of Israel, the people were full of grief.
40 kanao nivañoñe marain-tsikiake iereo niañambone’ i vohitsey, ami’ty hoe: Itoan-jahay, hanganike i nampitama’ Iehovà anaiy, fa nanao hakeo zahay.
And early in the morning they got up and went to the top of the mountain, saying, We are here and we will go up to the place which the Lord said he would give us: for we have done wrong.
41 Hoe ka t’i Mosè, Aa vaho akore te lilare’ areo ty lili’ Iehovà henaneo? Toe tsy ho tafetetse.
And Moses said, Why are you now acting against the Lord's order, seeing that no good will come of it?
42 Ko mionjoñe mb’eo tsy mone ho rotsaheñe añatrefan-drafelahi’ areo fa tsy mindre ama’ areo t’Iehovà.
Go not up, for the Lord is not with you, and you will be overcome by those who are fighting against you.
43 Aolo’ areo o nte-Amalekeo naho o nte-Kanàneo, le hampitsingoroem-pibara nahareo; amy te niambohoa’ areo t’Iehovà, vaho tsy hindreza’ Iehovà lia.
For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you will be put to death by their swords: because you have gone back from the way of the Lord, the Lord will not be with you.
44 F’ie nionjoñe tsinahy mb’an-tiotio’ i vohitsey mb’eo; fe tsy niakatse i tobey ka i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày ndra i Mosè.
But they gave no attention to his words and went to the top of the mountain, though Moses and the ark of the Lord's agreement did not go out of the tent-circle.
45 Aa le nizotso hiatreatre am’iareo o nte-Amalekeo naho o nte-Kanàne mpimoneñe amy vohitseio, nandafa naho nandronje iareo sikala e Khormà añe.
Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites who were living in the hill-country, and overcame them completely, driving them back as far as Hormah.
