< Numbers 16 >

1 Nowe Korah the sonne of Izhar, the sonne of Kohath, the sonne of Leui went apart with Dathan, and Abiram the sonnes of Eliab, and On the sonne of Peleth, the sonnes of Reuben:
Pea ko eni, naʻe kautaha ʻa Kola, ko e foha ʻo ʻIsa, ko e foha ia ʻo Kohate, ko e foha ia ʻo Livai, pea mo Tatani, mo ʻEpilami, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻIliapi, pea mo ʻOni, ko e foha ʻo Peleti, ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Lupeni:
2 And they rose vp against Moses, with certaine of the children of Israel, two hundreth and fiftie captaines of the assemblie, famous in the Congregation, and men of renoume,
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hake ʻi he ʻao ʻo Mōsese, fakataha mo e niʻihi ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe fakataha, ʻae toko uangeau mo e toko nimangofulu naʻe poto ʻi he fakakaukau ʻi he kakai, ko e kau tangata ongoongo:
3 Who gathered themselues together against Moses, and against Aaron, and sayde vnto them, Ye take too much vpon you, seeing all the Congregation is holie, euery one of them, and the Lord is among them: wherfore then lift ye your selues aboue the Congregation of the Lord?
Pea naʻa nau fakataha ʻakinautolu kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, pea nau pehē kiate kinaua, “ʻOku lahi fau ʻa hoʻomo fie pule ʻamoua, he kuo māʻoniʻoni taki taha kotoa pē ʻae kakai, pea ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Sihova: pea ko e hā te mo hiki hake ai ʻakimoua ke mo māʻolunga ʻi he kakai ʻa Sihova?”
4 But when Moses heard it, hee fell vpon his face,
Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻa Mōsese, naʻe tō fakafoʻohifo ia ki hono mata:
5 And spake to Korah and vnto all his companie, saying, To morow the Lord will shew who is his, and who is holy, and who ought to approche neere vnto him: and whom he hath chosen, hee will cause to come neere to him.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kia Kola mo hono kakai kotoa pē, “ʻE fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻapongipongi ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻoʻona, pea mo ia ʻoku māʻoniʻoni; pea te ne tuku ia ke ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi kiate ia: ʻio, ko ia kuo ne fili te ne tuku ke ʻunuʻunu mai ki heʻene ʻafio.
6 This doe therefore, Take you censers, both Korah, and all his companie,
Mou fai eni; Toʻo homou ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, ʻa Kola, mo hono kakai kotoa pē;
7 And put fire therein, and put incense in the before the Lord to morowe: and the man whome the Lord doeth chuse, the same shalbe holie: ye take too much vpon you, ye sonnes of Leui.
Pea tuku ki ai ʻae afi, ʻo ʻai ʻae ʻakau namu kakala ki ai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻapongipongi: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e tangata ʻe fili ki ai ʻa Sihova ko e māʻoniʻoni ia: ʻoku mou angahiki ʻaupito, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Livai.”
8 Againe Moses saide vnto Korah, Heare, I pray you, ye sonnes of Leui.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Kola, “ʻOku ou kole atu kiate kimoutolu ke mou fanongo mai, ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Livai:
9 Seemeth it a small thing vnto you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the multitude of Israel, to take you neere to himselfe, to doe the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the Congregation and to minister vnto them?
Ko e meʻa vaʻinga koā ia kiate kimoutolu ʻae fakamavae ʻe he ʻOtua ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ke ofi ki heʻene ʻafio ke mou fai ʻae ngāue, ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova, pea ke tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ke ngāue kiate kinautolu?
10 He hath also taken thee to him, and all thy brethren the sonnes of Leui with thee, and seeke ye the office of the Priest also?
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi koe ke ofi ki heʻene ʻafio, pea mo ho kāinga ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Livai fakataha mo koe: pea ʻoku mou kumi foki ʻae ngāue fakataulaʻeiki?
11 For which cause, thou, and all thy companie are gathered together against the Lord: and what is Aaron, that ye murmure against him?
He ko hono ʻuhinga eni ʻo hoʻomou fakataha ʻa koe mo ho kakai kia Sihova: pea ko hai ʻa ʻElone, ʻoku mou lāunga ai kiate ia?”
12 And Moses sent to call Dathan, and Abiram the sonnes of Eliab: who answered, We will not come vp.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ke ui ʻa Tatani mo ʻEpilami, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻIliapi: ka naʻa na pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te ma ʻalu ange:
13 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought vs out of a lande that floweth with milke and honie, to kill vs in the wildernesse, except thou make thy selfe lord and ruler ouer vs also?
He ko e meʻa siʻi hoʻo ʻomi ʻakimautolu mei he fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi, ke tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he toafa, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke nofo koe ko e ʻeiki kiate kimautolu?
14 Also thou hast not brought vs vnto a land that floweth with milke and honie, neither giuen vs inheritance of fieldes and vineyardes: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come vp.
Ka kuo ʻikai te ke ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki ha fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi, pe tuku kiate kimautolu ha tofiʻa ʻi he ngoue mo e ngoue vaine: te ke kapeʻi koā ʻae mata ʻoe kau tangata ni? ʻE ʻikai te ma ʻalu ange.”
15 Then Moses waxed verie angry, and saide vnto the Lord, Looke not vnto their offring: I haue not taken so much as an asse from them, neither haue I hurt any of them.
Pea naʻe tuputāmaki lahi ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ne pehē kia Sihova, “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻafio ki heʻenau feilaulau: naʻe ʻikai te u faʻao ha ʻasi ʻe taha meiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fakamamahiʻi ha taha ʻiate kinautolu.”
16 And Moses said vnto Korah, Bee thou and al thy companie before the Lord: both thou, they, and Aaron to morowe:
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Kola, “Ko koe mo ho kakai ke mou ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻapongipongi, ʻa koe, mo kinautolu, pea mo ʻElone:
17 And take euery man his censor, and put incense in them, and bring ye euery man his censor before the Lord, two hundreth and fiftie censors: thou also and Aaron, euery one his censor.
pea ʻe taki taha ʻave ʻe he tangata ʻa ʻene ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, pea tuku ʻi ai ʻae ʻakau namu kakala, pea taki taha ʻomi ʻe he tangata ʻa ʻene ipu ʻaiʻanga afi ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ko e ipu ʻaiʻanga afi ʻe uangeau ma nimangofulu; pea ko koe foki, mo ʻElone, te mo taki taha ʻene ipu ʻaiʻanga afi.”
18 So they tooke euery man his censor, and put fire in them, and laide incense thereon, and stoode in the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation with Moses and Aaron.
Pea naʻe taki taha ʻave ʻe he tangata ʻa ʻene ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, pea naʻe tuku ʻae afi ki ai, pea tuku ki ai ʻae ʻakau namu kakala, pea naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai fakataha mo Mōsese mo ʻElone.
19 And Korah gathered all the multitude against them vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation: then the glorie of the Lord appeared vnto all the Congregation.
Pea naʻe fakataha ʻe Kola ʻae kakai kotoa pē kiate kinaua ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ki he kakai kotoa pē.
20 And the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
21 Separate your selues from among this Cogregation, that I may consume them at once.
“Fakamavahe ʻakimoua mei he kakai ni, koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha leva ʻakinautolu.”
22 And they fell vpon their faces and saide, O God the God of the spirits, of all fleshe, hath not one man onely sinned, and wilt thou bee wroth with all the Congregation?
Pea naʻa na tō ki hona mata, ʻo na pehē, “ʻE ʻOtua, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe laumālie ʻoe kakai kotoa pē, ʻe angahala ha tokotaha, pea te ke houhau ki he kakai kotoa pē?”
23 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
24 Speake vnto the Congregation and say, Get you away from about the Tabernacle of Korah, Dathan and Abiram.
“Ke ke lea ki he kakai, ʻo pehē, Mou ʻalu atu ke ʻatā mei he fale fehikitaki ʻo Kola, mo Tatani, mo ʻEpilami.”
25 Then Moses rose vp, and went vnto Dathan and Abiram, and the Elders of Israel followed him.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Mōsese ʻo ʻalu kia Tatani mo ʻEpilami; pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli.
26 And he spake vnto the Congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tentes of these wicked men, and touche nothing of theirs, lest ye perish in all their sinnes.
Pea naʻe lea ia ki he kakai, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, Mou hiki atu mei he ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻoe kau tangata angahala ni, pea ʻoua naʻa mou ala ki haʻanau meʻa, telia naʻa mou ʻauha ʻi heʻenau angahala.”
27 So they gate them away from the Tabernacle of Korah, Dathan and Abiram on euerie side: and Dathan, and Abiram came out and stood in the doore of their tentes with their wiues, and their sonnes, and their little children.
Ko ia naʻa nau ʻalu ai mei he potu kotoa pē ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Kola, mo Tatani, mo ʻEpilami: pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Tatani mo ʻEpilami, pea na tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻo hona fale fehikitaki, pea mo hona uaifi mo hona ngaahi foha, pea mo ʻena fānau iiki.
28 And Moses saide, Hereby yee shall knowe that the Lord hath sent me to do all these works: for I haue not done them of mine owne minde.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Te mou ʻilo eni kuo fekau au ʻe Sihova ke u fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē; he ʻoku ʻikai ko hoku loto ʻoʻoku.
29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men, the Lord hath not sent me.
Kapau ʻe mate ʻae kau tangata ni ʻo hangē ko e mate ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea kapau ʻe hoko kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko e hoko ki he kakai kotoa pē; pea tā kuo ʻikai fekau au ʻe Sihova.
30 But if the Lord make a newe thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallowe them vp with all that they haue, and they goe downe quicke into ye pit, then ye shall vnderstand that these men haue prouoked the Lord. (Sheol h7585)
Pea kapau ʻe fai ʻe Sihova ha meʻa foʻou pea ʻe mafaʻa ʻae ngutu ʻoe kelekele, ʻo folo hifo ʻakinautolu, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu, pea nau ʻalu hifo fakafokifā pe ki he luo; te mou toki ʻilo ai kuo fakahouhauʻi ʻa Sihova ʻe he kau tangata ni.” (Sheol h7585)
31 And assoone as he had made an ende of speaking all these wordes, euen the ground claue asunder that was vnder them,
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻa ʻene fakahā ʻae ngaahi lea ni, naʻe mafahi ʻae kelekele ʻi lalo ʻiate kinautolu:
32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them vp, with their families, and all the men that were with Korah, and all their goods.
Pea naʻe mafaʻa ʻae ngutu ʻoe kelekele, ʻo folo hifo ʻakinautolu, mo honau ngaahi fale pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe ʻia Kola, mo ʻenau koloa kotoa pē.
33 So they and all that they had, went down aliue into the pit, and the earth couered them: so they perished from among the Congregation. (Sheol h7585)
Ko kinautolu, mo e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, naʻe ʻalu moʻui hifo ki he luo, pea naʻe mapuni ʻae kelekele kiate kinautolu: pea naʻa nau ʻauha mei he kakai. (Sheol h7585)
34 And all Israel that were about them, fled at the crie of them: for they said, Let vs flee, least the earth swalow vs vp.
Pea naʻe hola ʻi heʻenau tangi ʻae kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻiate kinautolu: he naʻa nau pehē, “Naʻa toe folo hifo ʻe he kelekele ʻakimautolu.”
35 But there came out a fire from the Lord, and consumed the two hundreth and fiftie men that offred the incense.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae afi meia Sihova, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko uangeau ma toko nimangofulu naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻae ʻakau namu kakala.
36 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
37 Speake vnto Eleazar, the sonne of Aaron the Priest, that he take vp the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire beyond the altar: for they are halowed,
“Ke ke lea kia ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki, ke ne hiko hake ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi mei he afi, he kuo tapu ia; pea ke liʻaki ʻae afi ki hena.
38 The censers, I say, of these sinners, that destroyed themselues: and let them make of them broade plates for a couering of the Altar: for they offered them before the Lord, therefore they shalbe holy, and they shall be a signe vnto the children of Israel.
Ko e ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi ʻakinautolu ni kuo angahala ki honau laumālie, tuku kenau ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi teunga lafalafa laulahi ke ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae feilaulauʻanga: he kuo nau feilaulau ʻaki ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ko ia kuo tapu ai ia; pea ʻe hoko ia ko e fakaʻilonga ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.”
39 Then Eleazar the Priest tooke the brasen censers, which they, that were burnt, had offred, and made broade plates of them for a couering of the Altar.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi palasa, ʻaia naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻekinautolu kuo vela; pea naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi fono lafalafa laulahi ke ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae feilaulauʻanga:
40 It is a remembrance vnto the children of Israel, that no stranger which is not of the seede of Aaron, come neere to offer incense before the Lord, that he be not like Korah and his company, as the Lord said to him by the hand of Moses.
Ke tuku ia ko e fakamanatu ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ofi mai ha muli, ʻoku ʻikai ʻoe hako ʻo ʻElone ke feilaulau ʻaki ʻae ʻakau namu kakala ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; telia naʻa tatau ia mo Kola, pea mo hono kakai: ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kiate ia ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.
41 But on the morowe all the multitude of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye haue killed the people of the Lord.
Pea ʻi he ʻaho naʻa na feholoʻi naʻe lāunga ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mo tāmateʻi ʻae kakai ʻo Sihova.”
42 And when the Congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, then they turned their faces toward the Tabernacle of the Congregation: and beholde, the cloude couered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fakataha ʻae kakai kia Mōsese pea mo ʻElone, naʻa nau sio ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai: pea fokifā pe kuo ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae ʻao, pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova.
43 Then Moses and Aaron were come before the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ki he matafale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
44 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
45 Get you vp from among this Congregation: for I wil consume them quickly: then they fell vpon their faces.
“Mo ʻalu hake ʻi he kakai ni, koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha leva ʻakinautolu.” Pea naʻa na tō foʻohifo ki hona mata.
46 And Moses said vnto Aaron, Take the censer and put fire therein of the Altar, and put therein incense, and goe quickly vnto the Congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the Lord: the plague is begunne.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Toʻo ha ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, ʻo tuku ki ai ʻae afi mei he funga feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ʻai ki ai ʻae ʻakau namu kakala, pea ke ʻalu vave ki he kakai, ʻo fai ʻae fakalelei maʻanautolu: he kuo ʻalu atu ʻae houhau meia Sihova; pea kuo kamata ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha.”
47 Then Aaron tooke as Moses commanded him, and ranne into the middes of the Congregation, and beholde, the plague was begun among the people, and hee put in incense, and made an atonement for the people.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe ʻElone ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ne lele ki he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai; pea vakai kuo kamata ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha ʻi he kakai: pea naʻa ne ʻai ʻae ʻakau namu kakala ki ai, ʻo ne fai ʻae fakalelei maʻanautolu.
48 And when hee stoode betweene the dead, and them that were aliue, the plague was stayed.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe mate mo e moʻui; pea naʻe taʻofi ai ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha.
49 So they died of this plague fourtene thousande and seuen hundreth, beside them that dyed in the conspiracie of Korah.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe mate ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha ko e tokotaha mano mo e toko fā afe ma toko fitungeau, mo kinautolu naʻe mate ʻi he meʻa ʻa Kola.
50 And Aaron went againe vnto Moses before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the plague was stayed.
Pea naʻe foki ʻa ʻElone kia Mōsese ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai: pea naʻe taʻofi ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha.
