Numbers 14

1 Gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn sì gbóhùn sókè, wọ́n sì sọkún ní òru ọjọ́ náà.

And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.

2 Gbogbo ọmọ Israẹli sì kùn sí Mose àti Aaroni, gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli sì wí fún wọn pé, “Àwa ìbá kúkú ti kú ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti. Tàbí kí a kúkú kú sínú aginjù yìí.

And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would Elohim that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would Elohim we had died in this wilderness!

3 Kí ló dé tí Olúwa fi mú wa wá sí ilẹ̀ yìí láti fi idà pa wá? Àwọn ìyàwó wa, àwọn ọmọ wa yóò sì di ìjẹ. Ǹjẹ́ kò wa, ní í dára fún wa bí a bá padà sí Ejibiti?”

And wherefore hath YHWH brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?

4 Wọ́n sì sọ fún ara wọn pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí á yan olórí kí á sì padà sí Ejibiti.”

And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.

5 Nígbà náà ni Mose àti Aaroni dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú gbogbo ìjọ ọmọ Israẹli.

Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.

6 Joṣua ọmọ Nuni àti Kalebu ọmọ Jefunne, tí wọ́n wà lára àwọn to lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ wò sì fa aṣọ wọn ya.

And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:

7 Wọ́n sì sọ fún gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli pé, “Ilẹ̀ tí a là kọjá láti yẹ̀ wò náà jẹ́ ilẹ̀ tí ó dára lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.

And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land.

8 Bí inú Olúwa bá dùn sí wa, yóò mú wa dé ilẹ̀ náà, ilẹ̀ tó ń sàn fún wàrà àti fún oyin, yóò fún wa ní ilẹ̀ náà.

If YHWH delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.

9 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ má ṣe ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa. Kí ẹ sì má bẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn ìlú náà, nítorí pé a ó gbé wọn mì, ààbò wọn ti fi wọ́n sílẹ̀, Olúwa sì wà pẹ̀lú àwa, ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù wọn.”

Only rebel not ye against YHWH, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and YHWH is with us: fear them not.

10 Ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn sì ń sọ pé àwọn yóò sọ wọ́n lókùúta pa. Nígbà náà ni ògo Olúwa fi ara hàn ní àgọ́ ìpàdé níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.

But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of YHWH appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.

11 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Fún ìgbà wo ni àwọn ènìyàn yìí yóò ti kẹ́gàn mi tó? Báwo ni yóò ti pẹ́ tó tí wọ́n ó fi kọ̀ jálẹ̀ láti gbà mí gbọ́, pẹ̀lú gbogbo iṣẹ́ àmì tí mo ṣe láàrín wọn?

And YHWH said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them?

12 Èmi ó kọlù wọ́n pẹ̀lú àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn, èmi ó gba ogún wọn lọ́wọ́ wọn, èmi ó sì pa wọ́n run ṣùgbọ́n èmi ó sọ ọ́ di orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá tó sì lágbára jù wọ́n lọ.”

I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.

13 Ṣùgbọ́n Mose sọ fún Olúwa pé, “Nígbà náà ni àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò gbọ́! Nítorí pé nípa agbára rẹ ni ìwọ fi mú àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí jáde kúrò láàrín wọn.

And Moses said unto YHWH, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them; )

14 Wọ́n ó sì sọ fún àwọn olùgbé ilẹ̀ yìí. Àwọn tó ti mọ̀ tẹ́lẹ̀ pé ìwọ Olúwa wà láàrín àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí àti pé wọ́n rí ìwọ, Olúwa, ní ojúkojú, àti pé ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ rẹ dúró lórí wọn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ sì ń lọ níwájú wọn pẹ̀lú ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ ní ọ̀sán àti pẹ̀lú ọ̀wọ́n iná ní òru.

And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou YHWH art among this people, that thou YHWH art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.

15 Bí ìwọ bá pa àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo, àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tó bá gbọ́ ìròyìn yìí nípa rẹ yóò wí pé,

Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,

16 ‘Nítorí pé Olúwa kò le è mú àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí dé ilẹ̀ tí ó ṣèlérí fún wọn; torí èyí ló ṣe pa wọ́n sínú aginjù yìí.’

Because YHWH was not able to bring this people into the land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in the wilderness.

17 “Báyìí, mo gbàdúrà, jẹ́ kí agbára Olúwa tóbi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ ti sọ pé,

And now, I beseech thee, let the power of YHWH be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,

18 ‘Olúwa lọ́ra láti bínú, ó sì pọ̀ ní ìfẹ́ tó dúró ṣinṣin, tí ń dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àti ìrékọjá jì. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í jẹ́ kí ẹlẹ́bi lọ láìjìyà; tó ń fi ìyà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ baba jẹ ọmọ títí dé ìran kẹta àti ìran kẹrin.’

YHWH is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.

19 Dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn yìí jì wọ́n, mo bẹ̀ ọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ ńlá rẹ, bí o ti ṣe ń dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn jì wọ́n láti ìgbà tí o ti kó wọn kúrò ní Ejibiti di ìsin yìí.”

Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.

20 Olúwa sì dáhùn pé, “Mo ti dáríjì wọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ.

And YHWH said, I have pardoned according to thy word:

21 Ṣùgbọ́n nítòótọ́ bí mo ti wà láààyè, gbogbo ayé yóò kún fún ògo Olúwa.

But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of YHWH.

22 Kò sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ènìyàn tó rí ògo mi àti àwọn iṣẹ́ àmì tí mo ṣe ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti àti nínú aginjù ṣùgbọ́n tí wọ́n ṣe àìgbọ́ràn sí mi, tí wọn sì dán mi wò ní ìgbà mẹ́wàá yìí,

Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;

23 ọ̀kan nínú wọn kò ní rí ilẹ̀ náà tí mo ṣe ìlérí ní ìbúra láti fún baba ńlá wọn. Kò sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tó kẹ́gàn mi tí yóò rí ilẹ̀ náà.

Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:

24 Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí pé Kalebu ìránṣẹ́ mi ní ẹ̀mí ọ̀tọ̀, tí ó sì tún tẹ̀lé mi tọkàntọkàn, èmi ó mu dé ilẹ̀ náà tó lọ yẹ̀ wò, irú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò sì jogún rẹ̀.

But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.

25 Níwọ́n ìgbà tí àwọn ará Amaleki àti àwọn ará Kenaani ń gbé ní àfonífojì, ẹ yípadà lọ́la kí ẹ sì dojúkọ aginjù lọ́nà Òkun Pupa.”

(Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) To morrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

26 Olúwa sọ fún Mose àti Aaroni pé,

And YHWH spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

27 “Báwo ni yóò ti pẹ́ tó tí àwọn ìjọ ènìyàn búburú yìí yóò fi máa kùn sí mi? Mo ti gbọ́ kíkùn tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń kùn sí mi.

How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.

28 Sọ fún wọn, bí mo ti wà láààyè nítòótọ́ ni Olúwa wí, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ohun tí ẹ wí létí mi ni èmi ó ṣe fún un yín.

Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith YHWH, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:

29 Nínú aginjù yìí ni ẹ ó kú sí, gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ẹ kùn láti ọmọ ogún ọdún ó lé àní gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí a kà.

Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured against me,

30 Ọ̀kan nínú yín kò ní í dé ilẹ̀ tí mo búra nípa ìgbọ́wọ́sókè láti fi ṣe ibùgbé yín, bí kò ṣe Kalebu ọmọ Jefunne àti Joṣua ọmọ Nuni.

Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

31 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ti àwọn ọmọ yín tí ẹ wí pé wọn ó di ìjẹ, àwọn ni n ó mú dé bẹ̀ láti gbádùn ilẹ̀ tí ẹ kọ̀sílẹ̀.

But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

32 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin, òkú yín yóò ṣubú ní aginjù yìí.

But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness.

33 Àwọn ọmọ wẹ́wẹ́ yín yóò sì máa rin kiri nínú aginjù fun ogójì ọdún wọn ó máa jìyà nítorí àìnígbàgbọ́ yín, títí tí ọkàn gbogbo yín yóò fi ṣòfò tán ní aginjù.

And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.

34 Fún ogójì ọdún èyí jẹ́ ọdún kan fún ọjọ́ kọ̀ọ̀kan nínú ogójì ọjọ́ tí ẹ fi yẹ ilẹ̀ náà wò ẹ̀yin ó sì jìyà fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín, ẹ ó sì mọ bí ó ti rí láti lòdì sí mi.

After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.

35 Èmi, Olúwa, lo sọ bẹ́ẹ̀; Èmi ó sì ṣe àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí sí ìjọ ènìyàn búburú yìí tí wọ́n kó ra wọn jọ lòdì sí mi. Nínú aginjù yìí ni òpin yóò dé bá wọn, ibẹ̀ ni wọn yóò kú sí.”

I YHWH have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.

36 Àwọn ọkùnrin tí Mose rán láti yẹ ilẹ̀ wò, tí wọ́n sì mú gbogbo ìjọ kùn sí i nípa ìròyìn búburú tí wọ́n mú wá nípa ilẹ̀ náà;

And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,

37 Olúwa sì kọlu àwọn ọkùnrin tó mú ìròyìn búburú wá nípa ilẹ̀ náà, àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn sì pa wọ́n níwájú Olúwa.

Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before YHWH.

38 Nínú gbogbo àwọn tó lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ náà wò, Joṣua ọmọ Nuni àti Kalebu ọmọ Jefunne ló yè é.

But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.

39 Nígbà tí Mose sọ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ yìí fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, wọ́n sì sọkún gidigidi.

And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.

40 Wọ́n dìde ní àárọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì wọ́n sì gòkè lọ sí ìlú orí òkè, wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa ti ṣẹ̀, àwa yóò lọ sí ibi tí Olúwa ṣèlérí fún wa.”

And they rose up early in the morning, and got them up into the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which YHWH hath promised: for we have sinned.

41 Mose sì dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Kí ló dé tí ẹ fi ṣẹ̀ sí òfin Olúwa? Èyí kò le yọrí sí rere!

And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of YHWH? but it shall not prosper.

42 Ẹ má ṣe gòkè lọ nítorí pé Olúwa kò sí láàrín yín. Ki á má ba à lù yín bolẹ̀ níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá yín.

Go not up, for YHWH is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.

43 Nítorí pé àwọn ará Amaleki àti àwọn ará Kenaani ń bẹ níwájú yín, ẹ̀yin yóò sì ti ipa idà ṣubú. Nítorí pé, ẹ ti yà kúrò ní ọ̀nà Olúwa, Olúwa kò sì ní í wà pẹ̀lú yín.”

For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from YHWH, therefore YHWH will not be with you.

44 Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀, pẹ̀lú àìfarabalẹ̀ wọn, wọ́n gòkè lọ sórí òkè náà, láìjẹ́ pé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa tàbí Mose kúrò nínú ibùdó.

But they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of YHWH, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.

45 Àwọn ará Amaleki àti àwọn ará Kenaani tó ń gbé lórí òkè sọ̀kalẹ̀ tọ̀ wọ́n, wọ́n bá wọn jà, wọ́n sì lé wọn títí dé Horma.

Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah.
