Nomery 17
1 Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Misaontsia amo ana’ Israeleo naho mangala kobay amo anjomban-droae iabio, ze talèn’ anjomban-droae—kobay folo-ro’amby, ie songa hanokitse ty tahina’e amy kobai’ey.
Speak to the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods: write you every man’s name on his rod.
3 Le sokiro an-kobai’ i Levy eo ty tahina’ i Aharone. Sindre kobain-droae raike ami’ty talèn’ anjomban-droae’ey, vaho
And you shall write Aaron’s name on the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.
4 apoho an-kibohom-pamantañañe aolo’ i fañina fifampikaoñan-tikañey.
And you shall lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.
5 Ie amy zao, hitaroke ty kobai’ ondaty ho joboñeko; le hijihetse ty fitoreo’ o ana’ Israeleo amako, i fiñeoñeoñe ama’o lomoñandroy.
And it shall come to pass, that the man’s rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you.
6 Aa le nisaontsy amo ana’ Israeleo t’i Mosè vaho songa nanolotse kobay raike o talèo, ty aman-talèn’ anjomban-droae’e; kobay folo-ro’ amby; le nitraok’ amo kobai’ iareoo ty kobai’ i Aharone
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, according to their fathers’ houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.
7 vaho napo’ i Mosè añatrefa’ Iehovà amy kibohom-pañinay i kobaiñe rey.
And Moses laid up the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle of witness.
8 Aa naho nimoak’ amy kibohom-pañinay t’i Mosè te loak’andro, hehe te nitaroke naho namotiboty naho namòñe vaho namoa mahabibo àñoñe ty kobai’ i Aharone añ’anjomba’ i Levy.
And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.
9 Le naaka’ i Mosè boak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà mb’ amo ana’ Israele iabio i kobay rey; nahaisake iereo vaho sambe nandrambe ty kobai’e.
And Moses brought out all the rods from before the LORD to all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod.
10 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Ampolio aolo’ i fañinay ty kobai’ i Aharone ho viloñe amo manjehatseo, hampigadoñe ty fañinjea’ iareo ahy tsy mone hikenkañe.
And the LORD said to Moses, Bring Aaron’s rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and you shall quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not.
11 Aa le nanoe’ i Mosè izay; i nandilia’ Iehovà azey ty nanoe’e.
And Moses did so: as the LORD commanded him, so did he.
12 Le hoe o ana’Israeleo amy Mosè, Mihamomoke zahay, motso, fonga mongotse!
And the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.
13 Ndra iaia mitotoke mb’eo, naho mañarine i kivoho’ Iehovày le havetrake. Kila hibanìtse hao zahay?
Whoever comes any thing near to the tabernacle of the LORD shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?
