Numeri 11
1 Anthu atadandaula kwa Yehova chifukwa cha mavuto awo, Yehovayo anamva ndipo anakwiya kwambiri. Kenaka moto wa Yehova unayaka pakati pawo ndi kutentha zigawo zina za kunja kwa msasa.
And the people murmured sinfully before the Lord; and the Lord heard [them] and was very angry; and fire was kindled amongst them from the Lord, and devoured a part of the camp.
2 Anthuwo analira kwa Mose ndipo Moseyo atapemphera kwa Yehova, motowo unazima.
And the people cried to Moses: and Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire was quenched.
3 Motero malowo anawatcha Tabera, chifukwa moto wa Yehova unayaka pakati pawo.
And the name of that place was called Burning; for a fire was kindled amongst them from the Lord.
4 Anthu ena osokoneza amene anali pakati pa Aisraeli anayamba kukhumba chakudya cha ku Igupto ndipo Aisraeli nawonso anayamba kufuwula kwambiri nʼkumati, “Tikanangopeza nyama yoti nʼkudya!
And the mixed multitude amongst them lusted exceedingly; and they and the children of Israel sat down and wept and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
5 Tikukumbukira nsomba zaulere zimene tinkadya ku Igupto komanso nkhaka, mavwende, anyezi wamitundumitundu ndi adyo.
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 Koma tsopano chilakolako chathu chatha. Sitikuona kanthu kena kakudya koma mana basi!”
But now our soul is dried up; our eyes [turn] to nothing but to the manna.
7 Mana ankafanana ndi mbewu zamapira ndipo maonekedwe ake anali ngati ulimbo wowuma.
And the manna is as coriander seed, and the appearance of it the appearance of hoarfrost.
8 Anthu ankapita kukatola manawo, nʼkumasinja mu mtondo kapena kupera. Ankawaphika mu mʼphika kapena kupanga makeke. Ndipo ankakoma ngati makeke ophikira mafuta a olivi.
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 Mame akamagwa pa msasawo usiku ankagwera kumodzi ndi manawo.
And when the dew came upon the camp by night, the manna came down upon it.
10 Mose anamva anthu a banja lililonse akufuwula, banja lililonse pa khomo la tenti yake. Yehova anakwiya kwambiri ndipo Mose anavutikanso mu mtima.
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 Mose anafunsa Yehova kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani mwabweretsa mavuto otere pa mtumiki wanune? Nʼchiyani chimene ndachita choti sichinakusangalatseni mpaka kundisenzetsa katundu wa anthu onsewa?
And Moses said to the Lord, Why have you afflicted your servant, and why have I not found grace in your sight, that you should lay the weight of this people upon me?
12 Kodi Ndine amene ndinatenga pathupi pa anthu onsewa? Kodi ndinawabala ndine? Bwanji mukundiwuza kuti ndiwanyamule mʼmanja mwanga, monga momwe mlezi amanyamulira kamwana, kupita nawo ku malo omwe munalonjeza ndi lumbiro kwa makolo awo?
Have I conceived all this people, or have I born them? that you say to me, Take them into your bosom, as a nurse would take her suckling, into the land which you sware to their fathers?
13 Ndingayipeze kuti nyama yoti anthu onsewa adye? Iwowa akulirira ine kuti, ‘Tipatse nyama tidye!’
Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep to me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
14 Sindingathe kusamala anthu onsewa ndekha. Katundu ameneyu ndi wolemera kwambiri kwa ine.
I shall not be able to bear this people alone, for this thing is too heavy for me.
15 Ngati umu ndi mmene muzichitira nane, chonde ingondiphani pompano. Koma ngati mwandikomera mtima ndiye ndisaonenso mavutowa.”
And if you do thus to me, kill me utterly, if I have found favour with you, that I may not see my affliction.
16 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti, “Undibweretsere anthu 70 ochokera pakati pa akuluakulu a Aisraeli, amene umawadziwa kuti ndiwo atsogoleri komanso akuluakulu a mabanja. Abwere ku tenti ya msonkhano kuti ayime kumeneko pamodzi ndi iwe.
And the Lord said to Moses, Gather me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom you yourself know that they are the elders of the people, and their scribes; and you shall bring them to the tabernacle of witness, and they shall stand there with you.
17 Ndidzatsika ndi kuyankhula nawe kumeneko, ndipo ndidzatenga mzimu umene uli pa iwe ndi kuyika pa iwowo. Adzakuthandiza kusenza nkhawa za anthuwa ndipo sudzasenzanso wekha.”
And I will go down, and speak there with you; and I will take of the spirit that is upon you, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear together with you the burden of the people, and you shall not bear them alone.
18 “Uwawuze anthuwo kuti, ‘Mudziyeretse, kukonzekera mawa, pamene mudzadya nyama.’ Yehova anakumvani pamene munkalira kuti, ‘Zikanakhala bwino tikanapeza nyama yoti tidye! Tinkakhala bwino ku Igupto!’ Tsopano Yehova adzakupatsani nyama ndipo mudzayidyadi.
And to the people you shall say, Purify yourselves for the morrow, and you shall eat flesh; for you 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 you shall eat flesh.
19 Simudzadya tsiku limodzi lokha, kapena masiku awiri, kapena asanu, khumi kapena masiku makumi awiri,
You shall not eat one day, nor two, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days;
20 koma mwezi wonse, mpaka itakukolani ndi kutopa nayo chifukwa mwakana Yehova yemwe ali pakati panu ndipo mwalira pamaso pake kuti, ‘Bwanji tinachoka ku Igupto?’”
you shall eat for a full month, until [the flesh] come out at your nostrils; and it shall be nausea to you, because you disobeyed the Lord, who is amongst you, and wept before him, saying, What had we to do to come out of Egypt?
21 Koma Mose anati, “Taonani pano ndili pakati pa anthu 600,000 amene ndi kuyenda nawo ndipo Inuyo mukuti, ‘Ndidzawapatsa nyama kuti adye mwezi wathunthu!’
And Moses said, The people amongst whom I am are six hundred thousand footmen; and you said, I will give them flesh to eat, and they shall eat a whole month.
22 Kodi ngakhale titapha nkhosa ndi ngʼombe, zingawakwanire? Ngakhale titagwira nsomba zonse za mʼnyanja, kodi zingawakwanire iwowa?”
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 Yehova anayankha Mose kuti, “Kodi dzanja langa ndi lalifupi? Uwona tsopano ngati zimene ndanenazo zichitike kapena ayi.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Shall not the hand of the Lord be fully sufficient? now shall you know whether my word shall come to pass to you or not.
24 Choncho Mose anatuluka nakawuza anthu zomwe Yehova ananena. Anasonkhanitsa pamodzi akuluakulu makumi asanu ndi awiri aja ndi kuwayimiritsa mozungulira Chihema.
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 Ndipo Yehova anatsika mʼmitambo ndi kuyankhula naye ndipo anatengako mzimu womwe unali pa Mose ndi kuwuyika pa akuluakulu makumi asanu ndi awiri aja. Pamene mzimuwo unakhazikika pa akuluakuluwo, anayamba kunenera koma sanapitirize.
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 Koma anthu ena awiri omwe mayina awo anali Elidadi ndi Medadi, anatsalira mu msasa. Anali nawo mʼgulu la olembedwa aja, koma sanapite nawo ku Chihema. Komabe mzimu unakhala pa iwo ndipo ananenera ali mu msasa.
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 Mnyamata wina anathamanga kudzawuza Mose kuti, “Elidadi ndi Medadi akunenera mu msasa.”
And a young man ran and told Moses, and spoke, saying, Eldad and Modad prophesy in the camp.
28 Yoswa mwana wa Nuni, mtumiki wa Mose kuyambira ubwana wake, anayankha kuti, “Mbuye wanga Mose, aletseni!”
And Joshua the son of Naue, who attended on Moses, the chosen one, said, [My] lord Moses, forbid them.
29 Koma Mose anati, “Kodi ukuchita nsanje chifukwa cha ine? Ndikanakonda kuti anthu onse a Yehova akhale aneneri ndi kuti Yehova ayike mzimu wake pa iwo!”
And Moses said to him, Are you jealous on my account? and would that all the Lord's people were prophets; whenever the Lord shall put his spirit upon them.
30 Mose ndi akuluakulu a Israeli aja anabwerera ku msasa.
And Moses departed into the camp, himself and the elders of Israel.
31 Pamenepo Yehova anawutsa mphepo yochokera ku nyanja imene inabweretsa zinziri. Zinzirizo zinagwera pansi kuzungulira msasa, mtunda wa kilomita imodzi mbali zonse ndipo msinkhu wake unali mita imodzi.
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 Tsiku limenelo masana onse mpaka usiku ndiponso tsiku lotsatiralo, anthu anatuluka kunja kukatola zinziri. Palibe amene anasonkhanitsa zochepera makilogalamu 1,000 ndipo anaziyanika kuzungulira msasa wonse.
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 Koma pamene anthuwo ankadya nyamayo, asanayimeze nʼkomwe, ukali wa Yehova unafika pa iwo ndipo Iye anawakantha ndi mliri woopsa.
The flesh was yet between their teeth, before it failed, when the Lord was angry with the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague.
34 Nʼchifukwa chake malowo anawatcha Kibiroti Hatava chifukwa pamenepo anakwirirapo anthu osusuka aja.
And the name of that place was called the Graves of Lust; for there they buried the people that lusted.
35 Kuchoka pa Kibiroti Hatava anthuwo anayenda kupita ku Heziroti ndipo anakhala kumeneko kwa kanthawi.
The people departed from the Graves of Lust to Aseroth; and the people halted at Aseroth.
