< Numbers 11 >

1 And [when] the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard [it; ] and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed [them that were] in the uttermost parts of the camp.
Pea naʻe lāunga ʻae kakai, pea houhau ai ʻa Sihova; pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Sihova; pea naʻe tutu hono houhau, pea naʻe vela ʻae afi ʻa Sihova ʻiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻai ʻae fakaʻauha ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoe ʻapitanga.
2 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched.
Pea naʻe tangi ʻae kakai kia Mōsese pea ʻi he lotu ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ne mate ai ʻae afi.
3 And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ʻae potu ko ia ko Tapela: koeʻuhi naʻe vela ai ʻae afi ʻa Sihova ʻiate kinautolu.
4 And the mixt multitude that [was] among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
Pea ko e kakai ʻiate kinautolu mei he potu kehekehe naʻa nau tō ki he holi fakasino: pea naʻe toe tangi foki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko hai te ne foaki kiate kitautolu ha kakano ke tau kai?
5 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:
‌ʻOku tau manatu ki he ika, ʻaia naʻa tau kai faʻiteliha pe ʻi ʻIsipite; mo e kukumipa, mo e meleni, pea mo e liki, mo e onioni, pea mo e kāliki:
6 But now our soul [is] dried away: [there is] nothing at all, beside this manna, [before] our eyes.
Ka ko eni kuo fakamahamaha ʻetau moʻui ke ʻosi; ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi hotau ʻao, ka ko e mana ni.”
7 And the manna [was] as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of bdellium.
Pea naʻe hangē ko e tengaʻi kolianita ʻae mana, pea ko hono lanu naʻe hangē ko e lanu ʻoe mataʻitofe.
8 [And] the people went about, and gathered [it], and ground [it] in mills, or beat [it] in a mortar, and baked [it] in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai, ʻo tānaki ia, pea naʻa nau momosi ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa momosi, pe tuki ia ʻi ha ipu, pea naʻe tunu ia ʻi he ngaahi ipu kapa, pea naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi foʻi ma: pea ko hono ifo naʻe tatau mo e ifo ʻoe lolo foʻou,
9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.
Pea ʻi heʻene tō ʻae hahau ʻi he poʻuli ki he ʻapitanga, naʻe tō ʻae mana ki ai.
10 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased.
Pea naʻe toki fanongo ʻa Mōsese ki he tangi ʻae kakai ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻi he matapā ʻo hono fale fehikitaki: pea naʻe vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ʻo lahi; pea naʻe ʻita foki ʻa Mōsese.
11 And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakamamahiʻi ai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki? Pea ko e hā kuo ʻikai te u ʻiloa ai ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, koeʻuhi kuo ke tuku ʻae kavenga ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē kiate au?
12 Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers?
He ko au koā naʻe tuʻituʻia ʻi he kakai ni kotoa pē? Pe ko au naʻaku fakatupu ʻakinautolu? He kuo ke folofola mai kiate au, Ke ke fua ʻakinautolu ʻi ho fatafata, ʻo hangē ko e tamai ʻoku ne tauhi, ʻo fua ʻae tamasiʻi ʻoku huhu, ki he fonua ʻaia naʻa ke fuakava ʻaki ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai?
13 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
Pea te u maʻu mei fē ʻeau ha kakano ke foaki ki he kakai ni kotoa pē? He ʻoku nau tangi kiate au, ʻonau pehē, Foaki mai ha kakano maʻamautolu koeʻuhi ke mau kai.
14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because [it is] too heavy for me.
‌ʻOku ʻikai te u mālohi ke u fua tokotaha pe ʻae kakai ni, koeʻuhi ʻoku nau mamafa fau kiate au.
15 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.
Pea kapau te ke fai pehē kiate au, ʻoku ou kole atu ki hoʻo ʻafio ke ke tāmateʻi leva au mei ho nima, ʻo kapau ʻoku ou ʻiloa ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao; kaeʻoua ʻe tuku au ke u mamata ki hoku mamahi.”
16 And the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Tānaki mai kiate au ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitungofulu ʻi he kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ke ʻilo ko e kau mātuʻa ʻi he kakai, pea mo e kau matāpule ʻiate kinautolu; pea ke ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, koeʻuhi kenau tuʻu fakataha ʻi ai mo koe.
17 And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which [is] upon thee, and will put [it] upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear [it] not thyself alone.
Pea te u ʻalu hifo ʻo ta alea ʻi ai mo koe: pea te u toʻo ʻae laumālie ʻoku ʻiate koe, ʻo tuku ia kiate kinautolu; pea tenau fua fakataha mo ko e ʻae kavenga ʻae kakai, ʻe ʻikai te ke fua tokotaha pe ia
18 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for [it was] well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
Pea te ke pehē ki he kakai, Fakamaʻa ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻapongipongi, pea te mou kai kakano: he kuo mou tangi ki he fofonga ʻo Sihova, ʻo pehē, Ko hai te ne foaki kiate kimautolu ha kakano ke mau kai; he naʻa mau lelei ʻi ʻIsipite: pea ko ia ʻe foaki ai ʻe Sihova ʻae kakano kiate kimoutolu, pea te mou kai.
19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
‌ʻE ʻikai te mou kai ia ʻi he ʻaho pe taha, pe ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ua, pe ʻi he ʻaho ʻe nima, pe ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, pe ʻi he ʻaho ʻe uofulu;
20 [But] even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which [is] among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?
Ka ko e māhina kātoa, ke ʻoua ke haʻu ia ʻi homou avaʻi ihu, pea ʻe fakalielia ia kiate kimoutolu: koeʻuhi naʻa mou fehiʻa kia Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, pea kuo mou tangi ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā ne mau haʻu ai mei ʻIsipite?”
21 And Moses said, The people, among whom I [am], [are] six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko e kakai ʻoku ou nofo ʻi ai, ʻoku nau toko ono kilu ʻae kau tangata fononga; pea kuo ke pehē, Te u foaki ʻae kakano kiate kinautolu, kenau kai ai ʻi he māhina ʻe taha.
22 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?
‌ʻE tāmateʻi ʻae fanga sipi, pea mo e fanga manu lalahi maʻanautolu, kenau mākona ai? Pe tānaki fakataha ʻae ika kotoa pē ʻi he tahi maʻanautolu, kenau mākona ai?”
23 And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD’s hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “He kuo fakanounou ʻae nima ʻo Sihova? Ko eni te ke mamata, pe hoko ʻeku lea kiate ko e pe ʻikai.”
24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
Pea naʻe ʻalu kituʻa ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ne fakahā ki he kakai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, pea naʻa ne tānaki ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitungofulu ʻi he kau mātuʻa ʻoe kakai, pea naʻa ne tuku ʻakinautolu ke tuʻu takatakai ʻi he fale fehikitaki.
25 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that [was] upon him, and gave [it] unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, [that], when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
Pea naʻe hāʻele hifo ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻao, ʻo ne folofola kiate ia, pea ne toʻo ʻae laumālie naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻo ne foaki ia ki he kau mātuʻa ʻe toko fitungofulu: pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he hoko ʻae laumālie kiate kinautolu, naʻa nau kikite, pea naʻe ʻikai tuku.
26 But there remained two [of the] men in the camp, the name of the one [was] Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they [were] of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp.
Ka naʻe nofo ʻae ongo tangata ʻe toko ua ʻi he ʻapitanga, ko e hingoa ʻoe tokotaha ko ʻElitati, pea ko e hingoa ʻoe tokotaha ko Metati: pea naʻe hoko ʻae laumālie kiate kinaua; pea naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu kuo tohi, ka naʻe ʻikai te na ō ki he fale fehikitaki: ka naʻa na kikite ʻi he ʻapitanga.
27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp.
Pea naʻe lele ʻae tangata talavou, ʻo ne pehē kia Mōsese, “ʻOku kikite ʻa ʻElitati mo Metati ʻi he ʻapitanga.”
28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, [one] of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Mōsese, ko e tokotaha ʻi heʻene kau tangata talavou, ʻo pehē, “Ko ʻeku ʻeiki ko Mōsese ke ke taʻofi ʻakinaua.”
29 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD’s people were prophets, [and] that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate ia, “ʻOku ke meheka koeʻuhi ko au? ʻOku ʻamusiaange ʻeau ki he ʻOtua ke kikite ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, pea ke tuku ʻe Sihova ʻa hono laumālie kiate kinautolu.”
30 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ki he ʻapitanga, ʻaia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli.
31 And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let [them] fall by the camp, as it were a day’s journey on this side, and as it were a day’s journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits [high] upon the face of the earth.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae matangi meia Sihova, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻae fanga kueili mei he tahi, pea naʻe tuku ia ke tō ʻo ofi ki he ʻapitanga, ʻo hangē ko e ngataʻanga ʻoe fononga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe taha ki he potu toʻomataʻu, pea hangē ko e ngataʻanga ʻoe fononga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe taha ki he potu toʻohema, ʻo takatakai ʻae ʻapitanga, pea naʻe hangē ko e hanga ʻe fā hono māʻolunga mei he funga kelekele.
32 And the people stood up all that day, and all [that] night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread [them] all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ko ia, pea mo e pō kotoa pē ko ia, pea mo e ʻaho kotoa naʻe feholoi, pea naʻa nau tānaki ʻae fanga kueili: ko ia naʻe siʻi ʻene tānaki naʻa ne tānaki ʻae oma ʻe hongofulu: pea naʻa nau fakamafola ʻakinautolu ʻo takatakai ʻi he ʻapitanga.
33 And while the flesh [was] yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.
Pea ʻi he kei ʻi honau nifo ʻae kakano ʻi he teʻeki ai ke lamu, naʻe vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki he kakai, pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai ʻaki ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha lahi ʻaupito.
34 And he called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.
Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ʻae potu ko ia ko Kipiloti-Hateva: koeʻuhi naʻa nau tanu ʻi ai ʻae kakai ʻaia naʻe holi kovi.
35 [And] the people journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.
Pea naʻe fononga atu ʻae kakai mei Kipiloti-Hateva ki Heseloti; pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi Heseloti.
