Kwan 16
1 Kora wuod Izhar, ma wuod Kohath, ma wuod Lawi, kod joka Reuben moko kaka Dathan gi Abiram, ma yawuot Eliab kod On wuod Peleth noriwore kaachiel
Now Korah son of Izhar son of Kohath son of Levi, along with Dathan and Abiram sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth, descendants of Reuben, gathered some men.
2 kendo negichokore mondo giked gi Musa. Kaachiel kodgi ne nitiere jo-Israel mia ariyo gi piero abich, ma jotend oganda mongʼere mane oseyier kaka jakanyo mar bura.
They rose up against Moses, along with other men from the people of Israel, two hundred and fifty leaders of the community who were well-known members in the community.
3 Negibiro kaka oganda achiel mochokore mondo giked gi Musa kod Harun kendo negiwachonegi niya, “Usetimo mokalo tongʼ! Oganda duto ler, ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomgi, kendo Jehova Nyasaye ni kodgi. En angʼo momiyo koro uketoru malo moloyo oganda mar Jehova Nyasaye?”
They assembled themselves together to confront Moses and Aaron. They said to them, “You have gone too far! All the community is set apart, every one of them, and Yahweh is among them. Why do you lift up yourselves above the rest of Yahweh's community?”
4 Kane Musa owinjo wachno, nopodho piny auma.
When Moses heard that, he lay facedown.
5 Eka nowacho ne Kora kod jolupne duto niya, “Kochopo gokinyi Jehova Nyasaye noyier joma oyie kuome kendo maler, kendo norwak ngʼatno obi bute.
He spoke to Korah and to all those with him, “In the morning Yahweh will make known who belongs to him and who is set apart to him. He will bring that person near to him. The one he chooses he will bring near to himself.
6 To in, Kora, kod joma luwou duto nyaka tim ma: Kawuru ubani
Do this, Korah and all your group. Take censers
7 kendo kiny umok mach kod gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Ngʼatno ma Jehova Nyasaye oyiero ema nobed ngʼama ler. Un jo-Lawi usekalo tongʼ!”
tomorrow and put fire and incense in them before Yahweh. The one whom Yahweh chooses, that man will be set apart to Yahweh. You have gone too far, you descendants of Levi.”
8 Musa bende nowacho ne Kora niya, “Koro Winjuru, un jo-Lawi!
Again, Moses said to Korah, “Now listen, you descendants of Levi:
9 Ok lichnu ni Nyasach Israel osegolou oko mar oganda jo-Israel mamoko kendo okelou bute owuon mondo uti e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo mondo uchung e nyim oganda kendo utinegi?
is it a small thing for you that the God of Israel has separated you from the community of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do work in Yahweh's tabernacle, and to stand before the community to serve them?
10 Osekelou kod jo-Lawi weteu duto bute, to koro sani utemo bedo jodolo bende.
He has brought you near, and all your kinfolk, the descendants of Levi, with you, yet you are seeking the priesthood also!
11 Un kaachiel gi joma luwou duto usengʼanyo ni Jehova Nyasaye. Harun to en ngʼa ma ungʼurne?”
That is why you and all your group have gathered together against Yahweh. So why are you complaining about Aaron, who obeys Yahweh?”
12 Eka Musa noluongo Dathan kod Abiram, ma yawuot Eliab. To negiwacho niya, “Ok wanabi!
Then Moses called for Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, but they said, “We will not come up.
13 Ok lichni ni isegolowa e piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich mondo inegwa e thim? Kendo sani koro idwaro miyowa tingʼ mapek?
Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness? Now you want to make yourself ruler over us!
14 Kata kamano, pod ok ikelowa e piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich kata miyowa girkeni mag puothe kod puothe mag mzabibu. Ubiro lodho wenge jogi oko? Ngangʼ, ok wanabi!”
In addition, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, or given us the fields and vineyards as an inheritance. Now do you want to blind us with empty promises? We will not come to you.”
15 Eka Musa iye nowangʼ matek mi owachone Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Kik iyie gi misengini mag-gi. Pod ok akawo kata mana punda achiel koa kuomgi, kata mana kethone ngʼato angʼata kuomgi.”
Moses was very angry and said to Yahweh, “Do not respect their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, and I have not harmed any of them.”
16 Musa nowacho ne Kora niya, “In kaachiel gi jolupni duto kod Harun bende nyaka ubi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
Then Moses said to Korah, “Tomorrow you and all your company must go before Yahweh—you and they, and Aaron.
17 Ngʼato ka ngʼato nyaka kaw tape owuon ma mach ni e yie kendo oketie ubani mangʼwe ngʼar madirom mia ariyo gi piero abich mi uchiwe e nyim Jehova Nyasaye in kaachiel gi Harun.”
Each of you must take his censer and put incense in it. Then each man must bring before Yahweh his censer, two hundred and fifty censers. You and Aaron, also, must each bring your censer.”
18 Omiyo ngʼato ka ngʼato nokawo tape owuon ma mach nitie iye kendo oketoe ubani mangʼwe ngʼar mine gichungʼ kod Musa gi Harun e dhoranga Hemb Romo.
So every man took his censer, put fire in it, laid incense in it, and stood at the entrance to the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron.
19 Kane Kora osechoko joge duto mondo okwedgo Musa gi Harun e dhoranga Hemb Romo, duongʼ Jehova Nyasaye ne onyisore ayanga ne oganda mane ochokore duto.
Korah assembled all the community against Moses and Aaron at the entrance to the tent of meeting, and Yahweh's glory appeared to all the community.
20 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kod Harun niya,
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron:
21 “Pogreuru gi kanyakla mar ogandani mondo omi atiekgi chuth.”
“Separate yourselves from among this community that I may consume them immediately.”
22 To Musa kod Harun nopodho auma moywak niya, “Yaye Nyasaye, mongʼeyo chunje duto mag dhano, iyi diwangʼ gi kanyakla mar ogandagi duto ka en mana ngʼato achiel ema otimo richo?”
Moses and Aaron lay facedown and said, “God, the God of the spirits of all humanity, if one man sins, must you be angry with all the community?”
23 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa ni,
Yahweh replied to Moses. He said,
24 “Wachne kanyakla mar oganda kama: ‘Daruru uwuog machiegni gi hembe Kora, Dathan kod Abiram.’”
“Speak to the community. Say, 'Get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.'”
25 Musa noa malo modhi ir Dathan kod Abiram, kendo jodong Israel noluwe.
Then Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; the elders of Israel followed him.
26 Nochiwo siem ne kanyakla mar oganda niya, “Suduru mabor gi hembe jogo ma timbegi richo! Kik umul girgi moro amora, ka ok kamano to ubiro lal nono nikech richo mag-gi.”
He spoke to the community and said, “Now leave the tents of these wicked men and touch nothing of theirs, or you will be consumed by all their sins.”
27 Omiyo negisudo mabor gi hembe mag Kora, Dathan kod Abiram. Dathan kod Abiram nosewuok oko kendo negichungo gi mondegi, nyithindgi kod rowere mag-gi e dhoranga hembegi.
So the community on every side of the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram left them. Dathan and Abiram came out and stood at the entrance to their tents, with their wives, sons, and their little ones.
28 Eka Musa nowacho niya, “Ma e kaka ubiro ngʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye ema noora mondo atim gigi duto kendo ni ne ok en pacha awuon:
Then Moses said, “By this you will know that Yahweh has sent me to do all these works, for I have not done them of my own accord.
29 Ka dipo ni jogi otho mana kaka ji duto nyalo tho, to kare Jehova Nyasaye ne ok oora.
If these men die a natural death such as normally happens, then Yahweh has not sent me.
30 To ka Jehova Nyasaye okelo gima nyien mopogore gi mago duto mapile, kendo ma piny oyawo dhoge mi omwonyogi, gi gik moko duto ma mekgi, kendo ma gidhi ei bur ka gingima, eka unungʼe ni jogi osewuotho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye gi achaya.” (Sheol h7585)
But if Yahweh creates something new, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them, with everything that they possess, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you must understand that these men have despised Yahweh.” (Sheol h7585)
31 Mana gi sa mane otieko wacho gigi, lowo mane ni e bwo tiendgi nobarore,
As soon as Moses finished speaking all these words, the ground opened under those men.
32 kendo piny noyawo dhoge mi omwonyogi, gi joodgi duto kod joka Kora duto kod mwandugi duto.
The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their families, and all the people who belonged to Korah, as well as all their possessions.
33 Negidhi e bur kagingima mi lowo uomogi kod mwandugi kendo negilal nono ei oganda Israel. (Sheol h7585)
So they and all that they possessed went down alive into Sheol. The earth closed over them, and they perished from among the community. (Sheol h7585)
34 E kinde mane giywak, jo-Israel duto mane ni machiegni kodgi noringo, kaywak niya, “Wan bende piny dhi mwonyowa!”
All Israel around them fled from their cries. They exclaimed, “The earth may swallow us up also!”
35 Kendo mach nowuok koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye mi owangʼo ji mia ariyo gi piero abich mane oyudo chiwo misango mangʼwe ngʼar.
Then fire flashed out from Yahweh and devoured the 250 men who had offered incense.
36 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
Again Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
37 “Nyis Eliazar wuod Harun, ma jadolo, mondo ogol tawo miwangʼo ubani kendo okee mirni mar mach mabor, nimar tawono ler
“Speak to Eleazar son of Aaron the priest and let him take up the censers out of the flames, for the censers are set apart to me. Then let him scatter the burning coals at a distance.
38 nimar gin tawo mag joma otimo richo ewi ngimagi giwegi. Los tawono moriere kendo iketgi ewi kendo mar misango, nimar nochiwgi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo gisebedo maler. We gibed ranyisi ne jo-Israel.”
Take the censers of those who lost their lives because of their sin. Let them be made into hammered plates as a covering over the altar. Those men did offer them before me, so they are set apart to me. They will be a sign of my presence to the people of Israel.”
39 Omiyo Eliazar jadolo nochoko tawo mar mula mane okel gi jogo mane osewangʼ, kendo nochokogi kanyakla monywasogi mondo muon-go kendo mar misango,
Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers that had been used by the men who were burned up, and they were hammered out into a covering for the altar,
40 mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike kokalo kuom Musa. Ma ne parone jo-Israel ni onge ngʼato angʼata makmana nyikwa Harun ema onego bi mondo owangʼ gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ka ok kamano to obiro chalo kaka Kora kod jolupne.
to be a reminder to the people of Israel, so that no outsider who was not descended from Aaron should come up to burn incense before Yahweh, so they might not become like Korah and his group—just as Yahweh had commanded through Moses.
41 Kinyne oganda mar jo-Israel duto nongʼurne Musa kod Harun. Negiwachonegi niya, “Usenego jo-Jehova Nyasaye.”
But the next morning all the community of the people of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron. They said, “You have killed Yahweh's people.”
42 To ka ogandano nochokore mar kwedo Musa kod Harun kendo gilokore ka gingʼiyo Hemb Romo, apoya nono boche polo noume kendo duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye noyangore.
Then it happened, when the community had assembled against Moses and Aaron, that they looked toward the tent of meeting and, behold, the cloud was covering it. Yahweh's glory appeared,
43 Eka Musa kod Harun nodhi e nyim Hemb Romo,
and Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of meeting.
44 kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,
45 “Wuogi e kanyakla mondo omi atiekgi chuth.” Kendo Musa gi Harun nopodho auma e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
“Go away from in front of this community so that I may consume them immediately.” Then Moses and Aaron lay down with their faces to the ground.
46 Eka Musa nowacho ne Harun niya, “Kaw tawo mar ubani mari kendo iket gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar e iye, kaachiel gi mach moa e kendo mar misango, kendo iret idhi e chokruokno mondo itimnegi misango mar pwodhruok e richo. Mirima osebiro koa ir Jehova Nyasaye; masiche osechakore.”
Moses said to Aaron, “Take the censer, put fire in it from off the altar, put incense in it, carry it quickly to the community, and make atonement for them, because anger is coming from Yahweh. The plague has begun.”
47 Omiyo Harun notimo kaka Musa nowachone, kendo noringo modhi e dier chokruok. Masira ne osechakore e dier ji, to Harun nochiwo gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar kendo nokwayonegi ngʼwono kuom gima gisetimo.
So Aaron did as Moses directed. He ran into the middle of the community. The plague had quickly started to spread among the people, so he put in the incense and made atonement for the people.
48 Nochungʼ e kind joma ngima gi joma otho, mi masiche norumo.
Aaron stood between the dead and the living; in this way the plague was stopped.
49 Makmana ji alufu apar gangʼwen gi mia abiriyo nosetho nikech masichego, komedore gi jogo mane osetho nikech Kora.
Those who died by the plague were 14,700 in number, besides those who had died in the matter of Korah.
50 Eka Harun noduogo ir Musa e dhoranga Hemb Romo, nimar masiche noserumo.
Aaron returned to Moses at the entrance to the tent of meeting, and the plague ended.
