< Números 11 >

1 E aconteceu que, queixando-se o povo, era mal aos ouvidos do Senhor; porque o Senhor ouviu-o, e a sua ira se acendeu, e o fogo do Senhor ardeu entre eles, e consumiu os que estavam na última parte do arraial.
And the people murmured sinfully before the Lord; and the Lord heard [them] and was very angry; and fire was kindled among them from the Lord, and devoured a part of the camp.
2 Então o povo clamou a Moisés, e Moisés orou ao Senhor, e o fogo se apagou.
And the people cried to Moses: and Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire was quenched.
3 Pelo que chamou aquele lugar Tabera, porquanto o fogo do Senhor se acendera entre eles.
And the name of that place was called Burning; for a fire was kindled among them from the Lord.
4 E o vulgo, que estava no meio deles, veio a ter grande desejo: pelo que os filhos de Israel tornaram a chorar, e disseram: Quem nos dará carne a comer?
And the mixed multitude among them lusted exceedingly; and they and the children of Israel sat down and wept and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
5 Lembramo-nos dos peixes que no Egito comiamos de graça; e dos pepinos, e dos melões, e dos pórros, e das cebolas, e dos alhos.
We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt freely; and the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the garlic, and the onions.
6 Mas agora a nossa alma se seca; coisa nenhuma há senão este maná diante dos nossos olhos.
But now our soul is dried up; our eyes [turn] to nothing but to the manna.
7 E era o maná como semente de coentro, e a sua cor como a cor de bdélio.
And the manna is as coriander seed, and the appearance of it the appearance of hoar-frost.
8 Espalhava-se o povo, e o colhia, e em moinhos o moia, ou num gral o pizava, e em panelas o cozia, e dele fazia bolos: e o seu sabor era como o sabor de azeite fresco.
And the people went through the field, and gathered, and ground it in the mill, or pounded it in a mortar, and baked it in a pan, and made cakes of it; and the sweetness of it was as the taste [of] wafer made with oil.
9 E, quando o orvalho descia de noite sobre o arraial, o maná descia sobre ele.
And when the dew came upon the camp by night, the manna came down upon it.
10 Então Moisés ouviu chorar o povo pelas suas famílias, cada qual à porta da sua tenda: e a ira do Senhor grandemente se acendeu, e pareceu mal aos olhos de Moisés.
And Moses heard them weeping by their families, every one in his door: and the Lord was very angry; and the thing was evil in the sight of Moses.
11 E disse Moisés ao Senhor: Porque fizeste mal a teu servo, e porque não achei graça aos teus olhos; que pusesses sobre mim o cargo de todo este povo?
And Moses said to the Lord, Why hast thou afflicted thy servant, and why have I not found grace in thy sight, that thou shouldest lay the weight of this people upon me?
12 Concebi eu porventura todo este povo? pari-o eu? que me dissesses: leva-o ao teu colo, como o aio leva o que cria, à terra que juraste a seus pais?
Have I conceived all this people, or have I born them? that thou sayest to me, Take them into thy bosom, as a nurse would take her suckling, into the land which thou swarest to their fathers?
13 De onde teria eu carne para dar a todo este povo? porquanto contra mim choram, dizendo: Dá-nos carne a comer:
Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep to me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
14 Eu só não posso levar a todo este povo, porque muito pesado é para mim.
I shall not be able to bear this people alone, for this thing is too heavy for me.
15 E se assim fazes comigo, mata-me eu to peço, se tenho achado graça aos teus olhos, e não me deixes ver o meu mal.
And if thou doest thus to me, slay me utterly, if I have found favour with thee, that I may not see my affliction.
16 E disse o Senhor a Moisés: Ajunta-me setenta homens dos anciãos de Israel, de quem sabes que são anciãos do povo, e seus oficiais: e os trarás perante a tenda da congregação, e ali se porão contigo
And the Lord said to Moses, Gather me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom thou thyself knowest that they are the elders of the people, and their scribes; and thou shalt bring them to the tabernacle of witness, and they shall stand there with thee.
17 Então eu descerei e ali falarei contigo, e tirarei do espírito que está sobre ti, e o porei sobre eles: e contigo levarão o cargo do povo, para que tu só o não leves.
And I will go down, and speak there with thee; and I will take of the spirit that is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear together with thee the burden of the people, and thou shalt not bear them alone.
18 E dirás ao povo: santificai-vos para amanhã, e comereis carne: porquanto chorastes aos ouvidos do Senhor, dizendo: Quem nos dará carne a comer? pois bem nos ia no Egito: pelo que o Senhor vos dará carne, e comereis:
And to the people thou shalt say, Purify yourselves for the morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye wept before the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: and the Lord shall allow you to eat flesh, and ye shall eat flesh.
19 Não comereis um dia, nem dois dias, nem cinco dias, nem dez dias, nem vinte dias;
Ye shall not eat one day, nor two, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days;
20 Até um mês inteiro, até vos sair pelos narizes, até que vos enfastieis dela: porquanto rejeitastes ao Senhor, que está no meio de vós, e chorastes diante dele, dizendo: Porque saímos do Egito?
ye shall eat for a full month, until [the flesh] come out at your nostrils; and it shall be nausea to you, because ye disobeyed the Lord, who is among you, and wept before him, saying, What had we to do to come out of Egypt?
21 E disse Moisés: Seiscentos mil homens de pé é este povo, no meio do qual estou: e tu tens dito: dar-lhes-ei carne, e comerão um mês inteiro.
And Moses said, The people among whom I am are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou saidst, I will give them flesh to eat, and they shall eat a whole month.
22 Degolar-se-ão para eles ovelhas e vacas, que lhes bastem? ou ajuntar-se-ão para eles todos os peixes do mar, que lhes bastem?
Shall sheep and oxen be slain for them, and shall it suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, and shall it suffice them?
23 Porém o Senhor disse a Moisés: Seria pois encurtada a mão do Senhor? agora verás se a minha palavra te acontecerá ou não.
And the Lord said to Moses, Shall not the hand of the Lord be fully sufficient? now shalt thou know whether my word shall come to pass to thee or not.
24 E saiu Moisés, e falou as palavras do Senhor ao povo, e ajuntou setenta homens dos anciãos do povo e os pôs de roda da tenda.
And Moses went out, and spoke the words of the Lord to the people; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and he set them round about the tabernacle.
25 Então o Senhor desceu na nuvem, e lhe falou; e, tirando do espírito, que estava sobre ele, o pôs sobre aqueles setenta anciãos: e aconteceu que, assim como o espírito repousou sobre eles, profetizaram; mas depois nunca mais.
And the Lord came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy men that were elders; and when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied and ceased.
26 Porém no arraial ficaram dois homens; o nome dum era Eldad, e o nome do outro Medad; e repousou sobre eles o espírito (porquanto estavam entre os escritos, ainda que não sairam à tenda), e profetizavam no arraial.
And there were two men left in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Modad; and the spirit rested upon them, and these were of the number of them that were enrolled, but they did not come to the tabernacle; and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Então correu um moço, e o anunciou a Moisés, e disse: Eldad e Medad profetizam no arraial.
And a young man ran and told Moses, and spoke, saying, Eldad and Modad prophesy in the camp.
28 E Josué, filho de Nun, servidor de Moisés, um dos seus mancebos escolhidos, respondeu, e disse: Senhor meu, Moisés, proíbe-lho.
And Joshua the son of Naue, who attended on Moses, the chosen one, said, [My] lord Moses, forbid them.
29 Porém Moisés lhe disse: Tens tu ciúmes por mim? Oxalá que todo o povo do Senhor fosse profeta, que o Senhor desse o seu espírito sobre ele!
And Moses said to him, Art thou jealous on my account? and would that all the Lord's people were prophets; whenever the Lord shall put his spirit upon them.
30 Depois Moisés se recolheu ao arraial, ele e os anciãos de Israel.
And Moses departed into the camp, himself and the elders of Israel.
31 Então soprou um vento do Senhor, e trouxe codornizes do mar, e as espalhou pelo arraial quase caminho dum dia de uma banda, e quase caminho dum dia da outra banda, à roda do arraial; e estavam quase dois côvados sobre a terra.
And there went forth a wind from the Lord, and brought quails over from the sea; and it brought them down upon the camp a day's journey on this side, and a day's journey on that side, round about the camp, as it were two cubits from the earth.
32 Então o povo se levantou todo aquele dia e toda aquela noite, e todo o dia seguinte, e colheram as codornizes; o que menos tinha, colhera dez homers; e as estenderam para si ao redor do arraial.
And the people rose up all the day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered quails; he that gathered least, gathered ten measures; and they refreshed themselves round about the camp.
33 Quando a carne estava entre os seus dentes, antes que fosse mastigada, se acendeu a ira do Senhor contra o povo, e feriu o Senhor o povo com uma praga mui grande.
The flesh was yet between their teeth, before it failed, when the Lord was wroth with the people, and the Lord smote the people with a very great plague.
34 Pelo que o nome daquele lugar se chamou Kibroth-hattaava porquanto ali enterraram o povo que teve o desejo.
And the name of that place was called the Graves of Lust; for there they buried the people that lusted.
35 De Kibroth-hattaava caminhou o povo para Hazaaroth, e pararam em Hazaaroth.
The people departed from the Graves of Lust to Aseroth; and the people halted at Aseroth.
