Numbers 17
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and take rods from them, one for each fathers’ house, of all their princes according to their fathers’ houses, twelve rods. Write each man’s name on his rod.
Misaontsia amo ana’ Israeleo naho mangala kobay amo anjomban-droae iabio, ze talèn’ anjomban-droae—kobay folo-ro’amby, ie songa hanokitse ty tahina’e amy kobai’ey.
3 You shall write Aaron’s name on Levi’s rod. There shall be one rod for each head of their fathers’ houses.
Le sokiro an-kobai’ i Levy eo ty tahina’ i Aharone. Sindre kobain-droae raike ty amy talèn’ anjomban-droae’ey, vaho
4 You shall lay them up in the Tent of Meeting before the covenant, where I meet with you.
apoho an-kibohom-pamantañañe aolo’ i fañina fifampikaoñan-tikañey.
5 It shall happen that the rod of the man whom I shall choose shall bud. I will make the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against you, cease from me.”
Ie amy zao, hitaroke ty kobai’ ondaty ho joboñeko; le hijihetse ty fitoreo’ o ana’ Israeleo amako, i fiñeoñeoñe ama’o lomoñandroy.
6 Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and all their princes gave him rods, for each prince one, according to their fathers’ houses, a total of twelve rods. Aaron’s rod was among their rods.
Aa le nisaontsy amo ana’ Israeleo t’i Mosè vaho songa nanolotse kobay raike o talèo, ty aman-talèn’ anjomban-droae’e; kobay folo-ro’ amby; le nitraok’ amo kobai’ iareoo ty kobai’ i Aharone
7 Moses laid up the rods before Yahweh in the Tent of the Testimony.
vaho napo’ i Mosè añatrefa’ Iehovà amy kibohom-pañinay i kobaiñe rey.
8 On the next day, Moses went into the Tent of the Testimony; and behold, Aaron’s rod for the house of Levi had sprouted, budded, produced blossoms, and bore ripe almonds.
Aa naho nimoak’ amy kibohom-pañinay t’i Mosè te loak’andro, hehe te nitaroke naho namotiboty naho namòñe vaho namoa mahabibo àñoñe ty kobai’ i Aharone añ’anjomba’ i Levy.
9 Moses brought out all the rods from before Yahweh to all the children of Israel. They looked, and each man took his rod.
Le naaka’ i Mosè boak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà mb’ amo ana’ Israele iabio i kobay rey; nahaisake iereo vaho sambe nandrambe ty kobai’e.
10 Yahweh said to Moses, “Put back the rod of Aaron before the covenant, to be kept for a token against the children of rebellion; that you may make an end of their complaining against me, that they not die.”
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Ampolio aolo’ i fañinay ty kobai’ i Aharone ho viloñe amo manjehatseo, hampigadoñe ty fañinjea’ iareo ahy tsy mone hikenkañe.
11 Moses did so. As Yahweh commanded him, so he did.
Aa le nanoe’ i Mosè zay; i nandilia’ Iehovà azey ty nanoe’e.
12 The children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, “Behold, we perish! We are undone! We are all undone!
Le hoe o ana’Israeleo amy Mosè, Mihamomoke zahay, motso, fonga mongotse!
13 Everyone who keeps approaching Yahweh’s tabernacle, dies! Will we all perish?”
Ndra iaia mitotoke mb’eo, naho mañarine i kivoho’ Iehovày le havetrake. Kila hibanìtse hao zahay?
