< Resansman 16 >

1 Kore, pitit gason Iza, moun laras Levi nan fanmi Keyat la, pran tèt Datan ak Abiram, pitit gason Eliyab yo ansanm ak One, pitit gason Pelèt, twa moun laras Woubenn.
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took some men.
2 Yo revòlte kont Moyiz. Te gen desansenkant (250) lòt moun nan pèp Izrayèl la avèk yo. Mesye sa yo, se te chèf pèp la menm te chwazi, moun ki te fè pati konsèy pèp la, chèf moun yo te konsidere anpil.
They rose up before Moses, with some of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown.
3 Yo tout reyini devan Moyiz ak Arawon, yo di yo konsa: -Koulye a, mesye, n' al twò lwen tande! Dènye moun nan pèp la se pou Seyè a y'ap viv. Seyè a la nan mitan nou tout, pa vre? Poukisa, nou menm Moyiz ak Arawon, nou pran pòz chèf nou anwo pèp Seyè a konsa?
They assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, “You take too much on yourself, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and the LORD is amongst them! Why do you lift yourselves up above the LORD’s assembly?”
4 Lè Moyiz tande sa, li lage kò l' atè plat, li lapriyè. Lèfini, li di Kore ak bann moun ki te avè l' yo konsa:
When Moses heard it, he fell on his face.
5 -Denmen maten, Seyè a va fè nou konnen ki moun ki pou li, ki moun li mete apa pou l' ak ki moun ki gen dwa pwoche bò kote l'. Moun la kite pwoche bò kote l' la, n'a konnen se moun sa a Bondye chwazi.
He said to Korah and to all his company, “In the morning, the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him. Even him whom he shall choose, he will cause to come near to him.
6 Men sa pou n' fè. Ou menm, Kore, ak chak moun ki nan bann ou an, nou chak n'a pran yon ti recho dife.
Do this: have Korah and all his company take censers,
7 Denmen maten chak moun va ranje chabon dife nan recho pa l' la, epi l'a mete lansan sou dife a devan lotèl Seyè a. Konsa, moun Seyè a va chwazi a, n'a konnen se li menm Bondye mete apa pou l' a. Se nou menm, pitit Levi yo, ki pral twò lwen koulye a!
put fire in them, and put incense on them before the LORD tomorrow. It shall be that the man whom the LORD chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!”
8 Moyiz di Kore konsa: -Koute non, nou menm pitit Levi yo!
Moses said to Korah, “Hear now, you sons of Levi!
9 Apre tou sa Bondye fè pou nou, nou jwenn li pa fè ase toujou: Nan tout pèp Izrayèl la, se nou li chwazi pou pwoche bò kote l', pou fè sèvis li nan kay li, pou kanpe devan pèp la pou fè sèvis pou yo.
Is it a small thing to you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the LORD’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
10 Ou menm Kore ak tout frè ou yo, pitit Levi yo, li ban nou dwa pou nou pwoche bò kote l'. Epi koulye a, n'ap mande pou yo ban nou plas prèt yo!
and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? Do you seek the priesthood also?
11 Lè ou menm ak tout bann mesye ou yo n'ap plenyen konsa sou do Arawon, kisa Arawon ye nan sa? Konnen se kont Seyè a menm wi nou pran pozisyon.
Therefore you and all your company have gathered together against the LORD! What is Aaron that you complain against him?”
12 Apre sa, Moyiz voye rele Datan ak Abiram, de nan pitit gason Eliyab yo. Men yo voye di Moyiz: -Nou p'ap vini.
Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, “We won’t come up!
13 Ou fin fè nou kite yon bon ti peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl t'ap koule tankou dlo, ou mennen nou vin mouri isit nan dezè a, epi koulye a ou vle pran pòz chèf ou sou nou ankò!
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, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?
14 Ou mèt di sa ou vle, men se pa nan yon peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo ou mennen nou la a! Ou pa ban nou okenn jaden pou n' plante grenn ni okenn jaden rezen ou te di ou t'ap ban nou an. Atò, ou kwè ou kapab pete je moun sa yo? Non! Nou p'ap vini.
Moreover you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We won’t come up.”
15 Lè sa a, Moyiz fè yon sèl fache, li di Seyè a konsa: -Pa asepte okenn ofrann moun sa yo ta pote vin ofri ou. Mwen pa janm pran anyen nan zafè yo, pa menm yon bourik. Mwen pa janm fè yonn ladan yo anyen.
Moses was very angry, and said to the LORD, “Don’t respect their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.”
16 Apre sa, Moyiz di Kore konsa: -Ou menm ak tout bann moun ou yo, denmen n'a vini devan lotèl Seyè a. Arawon va la tou.
Moses said to Korah, “You and all your company go before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow.
17 Chak moun va pran yon ti recho dife, y'a mete lansan ladan l', epi y'a pote recho yo devan Seyè a. Sa va fè desansenkant (250) recho. Ou menm ak Arawon, n'a vini ak recho pa nou tou.
Each man take his censer and put incense on it, and each man bring before the LORD his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each with his censer.”
18 Se konsa, yo chak pran yon ti recho, yo ranje chabon dife ladan l', yo mete lansan sou dife a, epi yo vin kanpe devan pòt Tant Randevou a ansanm ak Moyiz ak Arawon.
They each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.
19 Kore te fè tout pèp la reyini nan pòt Tant Randevou a anfas Moyiz ak Arawon. Yo rete konsa, epi pouvwa Bondye parèt tankou yon gwo limyè devan tout pèp la.
Korah assembled all the congregation opposite them to the door of the Tent of Meeting. The LORD’s glory appeared to all the congregation.
20 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo:
The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
21 -Wete kò nou nan mitan moun sa yo. Mwen pral disparèt yo koulye a.
“Separate yourselves from amongst this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!”
22 Men Moyiz ak Arawon tonbe fas atè, yo di: -O Bondye, ou menm ki bay tout moun lavi, se pa paske yon sèl moun fè sa l' pa t' dwe fè kifè pou ou fache sou tout pèp la.
They fell on their faces, and said, “God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?”
23 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24 -Pale ak tout pèp la. Di yo pou mwen pou yo wete kò yo bò kote Kore, Datan ak Abiram rete a.
“Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!’”
25 Moyiz leve, l' al jwenn Datan ak Abiram. Tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo te ale avè l' tou.
Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
26 Li pale ak pèp la, li di yo: -Wete kò nou bò kote bann mechan sa yo rete a. Pa manyen anyen ki pou yo, si nou pa vle pase tou nan chatiman yo pral ba yo pou peche yo fè a.
He spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins!”
27 Se konsa, tout pèp la wete kò yo, yo rete byen lwen kote Kore, Datan ak Abiram te rete a. Datan ak Abiram menm soti, yo vin kanpe devan pòt kay yo ansanm ak madanm yo, pitit yo ak pitit pitit yo.
So they went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents with their wives, their sons, and their little ones.
28 Moyiz di pèp la konsa: -Avèk sa ki pral rive a, nou pral konnen se Seyè a menm ki te voye m' fè tout travay sa yo. Se pa mwen menm ki rete konsa mwen di mwen pral fè yo.
Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind.
29 Si moun sa yo mouri jan tout moun fèt pou mouri a, san se pa Bondye ki pini yo, enben, se pa Seyè a ki te voye m'.
If these men die the common death of all men, or if they experience what all men experience, then the LORD hasn’t sent me.
30 Men, si Seyè a fè bagay nou poko janm wè, si li fè tè a louvri pou l' vale moun sa yo ansanm ak tou sa ki pou yo, kifè y'ap desann tou vivan nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, n'a konnen se Seyè a menm yo t'ap derespekte konsa. (Sheol h7585)
But if the LORD makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up with all that belong to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall understand that these men have despised the LORD.” (Sheol h7585)
31 Fini li fini di pawòl sa yo, tè a fann, li louvri anba pye Datan ak Abiram.
As he finished speaking all these words, the ground that was under them split apart.
32 Li vale yo, yo menm, tout fanmi yo ansanm ak tout moun ki te pran pozisyon pou Kore, ak tou sa ki te pou yo.
The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with their households, all of Korah’s men, and all their goods.
33 Yo desann tou vivan avèk tou sa ki te pou yo nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. Apre sa, tè a fèmen sou yo, yo disparèt nèt nan mitan pèp la. (Sheol h7585)
So they, and all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol. The earth closed on them, and they perished from amongst the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
34 Tout moun nan pèp la ki te la pran kouri lè yo tande jan moun yo t'ap rele. Yo t'ap di: -Ann kouri pou tè a pa vale nou tou.
All Israel that were around them fled at their cry; for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up!”
35 Menm lè a tou, Seyè a voye yon sèl dife ki devore tout desansenkant (250) mesye ki t'ap ofri lansan yo.
Fire came out from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men who offered the incense.
36 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
37 -Mande Eleaza, pitit gason Arawon, prèt la, pou l' ale wete recho dife an kwiv yo nan mitan rès moun boule yo. L'a jete chabon dife ki ladan yo yon kote byen lwen, paske recho dife sa yo se bagay ki apa pou mwen.
“Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire away from the camp; for they are holy,
38 Wi, yo apa pou mwen paske mesye sa yo ki mouri pou peche yo te ofri yo devan lotèl Seyè a. W'a pran recho sa yo, w'a bat yo ak mato fè yo tounen plak fin pou kouvri lotèl la. Sa va sèvi yon avètisman pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
even the censers of those who sinned against their own lives. Let them be beaten into plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the LORD. Therefore they are holy. They shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
39 Se konsa, Eleaza, prèt la, te pran recho an kwiv moun boule yo te ofri yo, li bat yo ak mato, li fè yon kouvèti pou lotèl la
Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which those who were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
40 pou sa sèvi yon avètisman pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo, pou yo konnen moun ki pa fè pati fanmi Arawon an pa gen dwa pwoche devan lotèl Seyè a pou boule lansan. Si yo fè sa, sa ki rive Kore ak moun li yo, se sa k'ap rive moun sa yo tou. Tou sa pase konsa vre dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou Eleaza.
to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger who isn’t of the offspring of Aaron, would come near to burn incense before the LORD, that he not be as Korah and as his company; as the LORD spoke to him by Moses.
41 Nan denmen, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran bougonnen sou do Moyiz ak Arawon, yo t'ap di: -Se nou menm ki lakòz moun pèp Seyè a ap mouri konsa.
But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have killed the LORD’s people!”
42 Lè pèp la fin sanble pou yo pran pozisyon kont Moyiz ak Arawon, yo vire je yo gade Tant Randevou a, yo wè nwaj la te kouvri tant lan. Menm lè a, pouvwa Bondye-a parèt tankou yon gwo limyè.
When the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, they looked towards the Tent of Meeting. Behold, the cloud covered it, and the LORD’s glory appeared.
43 Moyiz ak Arawon ale, yo kanpe devan Tant Randevou a.
Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
44 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
45 -Wete kò nou nan mitan pèp sa a. Mwen pral disparèt yo koulye a menm! De mesye yo tonbe fas atè.
“Get away from amongst this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!” They fell on their faces.
46 Epi Moyiz di Arawon konsa: -Pran ti recho dife ou la, pran chabon dife sou lotèl la, mete ladan l'. Vide ti lansan sou dife a. Epi kouri vit avè l' al jwenn pèp la. W'a fè sèvis pou mande Bondye padon pou yo. Fè vit non! Seyè a fache anpil, li gen tan pran desizyon l'. Malè a konmanse deja.
Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, put fire from the altar in it, lay incense on it, carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the LORD! The plague has begun.”
47 Arawon pran ti recho a, li fè sa Moyiz te di l' fè a. Epi li pran kouri nan mitan pèp la. Men, malè a te deja konmanse ap fè dega nan pèp la. Lè Arawon wè sa, li mete lansan sou dife a, li fè sèvis pou mande Bondye padon pou yo.
Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the middle of the assembly. The plague had already begun amongst the people. He put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
48 Se konsa malè a te sispann. Arawon te kanpe nan mitan ak mò yo yon bò, moun vivan yo yon lòt bò.
He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
49 Te gen katòzmil sètsan moun (14.700) antou ki te mouri nan malè sa a, san konte sa ki te mouri akòz Kore yo.
Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, in addition to those who died about the matter of Korah.
50 Lè malè a sispann nèt, Arawon tounen al jwenn Moyiz, devan papòt Kay Randevou a.
Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and the plague was stopped.
