< Numbers 11 >

1 When the people became murmurers, it displeased the Lord: and the Lord heard it, therefore his wrath was kindled, and the fire of the Lord burnt among them, and consumed the vtmost parte of the hoste.
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 Then the people cryed vnto Moses: and when Moses praied vnto 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 that 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 a nomber of people that was amog them, fell a lusting, and turned away, and the children of Israel also wept, and saide, Who shall giue vs flesh to eate?
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 for nought, the cucumbers, and the pepons, and the leekes, and the onions, and the garleke.
‌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 soule is dryed away, we can see nothing but this Man.
Ka ko eni kuo fakamahamaha ʻetau moʻui ke ʻosi; ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi hotau ʻao, ka ko e mana ni.”
7 (The Man also was as coriander seede, and his colour like the colour of bdelium.
Pea naʻe hangē ko e tengaʻi kolianita ʻae mana, pea ko hono lanu naʻe hangē ko e lanu ʻoe mataʻitofe.
8 The people went about and gathered it, and ground it in milles, or beat it in morters, and baked it in a cauldron, and made cakes of it, and the taste of it was like vnto the taste of fresh oyle.
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 dewe fell downe vpon the hoste in the night, the Man fell with 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 weepe throughout their families, euery man in the doore of his tent, and the wrath of the Lord was grieuously kindled: also Moses was grieued.
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 saide vnto the Lord, Wherefore hast thou vexed thy seruant? and why haue I not found fauour in thy sight, seeing thou hast put the charge of al this people vpon mee?
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 Haue I conceiued al this people? or haue I begotte them, that thou shouldest say vnto me, Cary them in thy bosome (as a nurse beareth the sucking childe) vnto the lande, for the which thou swarest vnto 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 Where should I haue flesh to giue vnto al this people? for they weepe vnto me, saying, Giue vs flesh that we may eate.
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 beare al this people alone, for it is too heauie for me.
‌ʻOku ʻikai te u mālohi ke u fua tokotaha pe ʻae kakai ni, koeʻuhi ʻoku nau mamafa fau kiate au.
15 Therefore if thou deale thus with mee, I pray thee, if I haue founde fauour in thy sight, kill me, that I behold not my miserie.
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 Then the Lord said vnto Moses, Gather vnto me seuetie men of ye Elders of Israel, whome thou knowest, that they are the Elders of the people, and gouernonrs ouer them, and bring them vnto the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and let them 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 downe, and talke with thee there, and take of the Spirite, which is vpon thee, and put vpon them, and they shall beare the burthen of the people with thee: so thou shalt not beare it 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 Furthermore thou shalt saye vnto the people, Bee sanctified against to morowe, and yee shall eate flesh: for you haue wept in the eares of the Lord, saying, Who shall giue vs flesh to eate? for we were better in Egypt: therefore the Lord will giue you flesh, and ye shall eate.
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 daies, nor fiue daies, neither ten daies, nor twentie dayes,
‌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 a whole moneth, vntill it come out at your nostrels, and bee lothesome vnto you, because ye haue contemned the Lord, which is among you, and haue wept before him, saying, Why came we hither 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 saide, Six hundreth thousande footemen are there of the people, among whom I am: and thou saiest, I will giue them flesh, that they may eate a moneth long.
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 sheepe and the beeues be slaine for them, to finde them? either 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 saide vnto Moses, Is the Lordes hand shortened? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to passe vnto thee, or no.
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 So Moses went out, and told the people the wordes of the Lord, and gathered seuentie 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 Then the Lord came downe in a cloude, and spake vnto him, and tooke of the Spirit that was vpon him, and put it vpon the seuentie Ancient men: and when the Spirit rested vpon them, then they prophecied, 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 hoste: the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad, and the Spirit rested vpon them, (for they were of them that were written, and went not out vnto the Tabernacle) and they prophecied in the hoste.
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 Then there ranne a yong man, and tolde Moses, and saide, Eldad and Medad doe prophesie in the hoste.
Pea naʻe lele ʻae tangata talavou, ʻo ne pehē kia Mōsese, “ʻOku kikite ʻa ʻElitati mo Metati ʻi he ʻapitanga.”
28 And Ioshua the sonne of Nun the seruant of Moses one of his yong 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 But Moses saide vnto him, Enuiest thou for my sake? yea, would God that all the Lordes people were Prophets, and that the Lord woulde put his Spirit vpon 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 returned into the hoste, he and the Elders of Israel.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ki he ʻapitanga, ʻaia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli.
31 Then there went foorth a winde from the Lord, and brought quailes from the Sea, and let them fall vpon the campe, a dayes iourney on this side, and a dayes iourney on the other side, round about the hoste, and they were about two cubites aboue 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 Then the people arose, al that day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered the quailes: he that gathered the least, gathered ten Homers full, and they spred them abroade for their vse round about the hoste.
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 While the flesh was yet betweene their teeth, before it was chewed, euen the wrath of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord smote the people with an exceeding 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 So the name of the place was called, Kibroth-hattaauah: for there they buried the people that fell a lusting.
Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ʻae potu ko ia ko Kipiloti-Hateva: koeʻuhi naʻa nau tanu ʻi ai ʻae kakai ʻaia naʻe holi kovi.
35 From Kibroth-hattaauah ye people tooke their iourney to Hazeroth, and abode at Hazeroth.
Pea naʻe fononga atu ʻae kakai mei Kipiloti-Hateva ki Heseloti; pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi Heseloti.
