Tauanga 11

1 A ka takiamuamu te iwi, ka korero kino ki nga taringa o Ihowa: a, no te rongonga o Ihowa, ka mura tona riri; a ka ka te ahi a Ihowa i roto i a ratou, a pau ake te hunga i nga pito ki waho o te puni.

And the people is evil, as those sighing habitually in the ears of Jehovah, and Jehovah heareth, and His anger burneth, and the fire of Jehovah burneth among them, and consumeth in the extremity of the camp.

2 Na ka tangi te iwi ki a Mohi; a ka inoi a Mohi ki a Ihowa, na, ka mate te ahi.

And the people cry unto Moses, and Moses prayeth unto Jehovah, and the fire is quenched;

3 A huaina iho te ingoa o tena wahi ko Tapera: no te kaanga hoki o te ahi a Ihowa i roto i a ratou.

and he calleth the name of that place Taberah, for the fire of Jehovah hath 'burned' among them.

4 Na ka minamina nga whakauru i roto i a ratou: me nga tama hoki a Iharaira i tangi ano, i mea, Ma wai e homai he kikokiko hei kai ma tatou?

And the rabble who [are] in its midst have lusted greatly, and the sons of Israel also turn back and weep, and say, 'Who doth give us flesh?

5 E mahara ana tatou ki nga ika i kainga noatia e tatou ki Ihipa; ki nga kukama, ki nga merengi, ki nga riki, ki nga aniana, me te karika:

We have remembered the fish which we do eat in Egypt for nought, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick;

6 Ko tenei ia, kua maroke o tatou wairua; kahore rawa nei tetahi mea: kahore he mea ke hei tirohanga ma tatou ko tenei mana anake.

and now our soul [is] dry, there is not anything, save the manna, before our eyes.'

7 Na ko te rite o te mana kei te pua korianara; ko tona kara kei te kara teriuma.

And the manna is as coriander seed, and its aspect as the aspect of bdolach;

8 I kopikopiko te iwi ki te kohi, a hurihia ana e ratou ki nga mira, i tukia ranei ki te kumete, a tunua ana e ratou ki te kohua, hanga ana hoki hei keke: ko tona reka kei to te hinu hou.

the people have turned aside and gathered [it], and ground [it] with millstones, or beat [it] in a mortar, and boiled [it] in a pan, and made it cakes, and its taste hath been as the taste of the moisture of oil.

9 A, i te taunga iho o te haunui ki te puni i te po, i tau ano te mana ki runga.

And in the descending of the dew on the camp by night, the manna descendeth upon it.

10 A i rongo a Mohi i te iwi e tangi ana, puta noa i o ratou hapu, tenei, tenei, i te whatitoka o tona teneti: a he nui te muranga o te riri o Ihowa; a i kino hoki ki ta Mohi.

And Moses heareth the people weeping by its families, each at the opening of his tent, and the anger of Jehovah burneth exceedingly, and in the eyes of Moses [it is] evil.

11 Na ka mea a Mohi ki a Ihowa, He aha koe i whakatupu kino ai i tau pononga? he aha ahau te manakohia ai e koe, i whakawaha ai e koe tenei iwi katoa ki ahau?

And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'Why hast Thou done evil to Thy servant? and why have I not found grace in Thine eyes — to put the burden of all this people upon me?

12 He uri ianei noku tenei iwi katoa? i whanau ranei ratou i ahau, i mea ai koe ki ahau, Hikitia ki tou uma, kia rite ki ta te matu atawhai, ki tana hiki i te potiki, ki te whenua i oatitia e koe ki o ratou matua?

I — have I conceived all this people? I — have I begotten it, that Thou sayest unto me, Carry it in thy bosom as the nursing father beareth the suckling, unto the ground which Thou hast sworn to its fathers?

13 No hea aku kikokiko hei hoatutanga maku ki tenei iwi katoa? e tangi mai ana hoki ratou ki ahau, e mea mai ana, Homai he kikokiko ki matou hei kai ma matou.

Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give to us flesh, and we eat.

14 E kore tenei iwi katoa e taea e ahau anake te waha, he taimaha rawa maku.

I am not able — I alone — to bear all this people, for [it is] too heavy for me;

15 A ki te penei tau mahi ki ahau, tena, whakamatea rawatia ahau, ki te mea kua manakohia mai ahau e koe; kaua hoki ahau e kite i te he moku.

and if thus Thou art doing to me — slay me, I pray Thee; slay, if I have found grace in thine eyes, and let me not look on mine affliction.'

16 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Huihuia mai ki ahau kia whitu tekau o nga kaumatua o Iharaira, au i mohio ai he kaumatua no te iwi, he rangatira no ratou; me kawe mai ratou ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, me tu tahi koutou ki reira.

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Gather to Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou hast known that they are elders of the people, and its authorities; and thou hast taken them unto the tent of meeting, and they have stationed themselves there with thee,

17 A maku e haere iho, e korero ki a koe ki reira: me tongo ano e ahau tetahi wahi o te wairua i runga i a koe, ka hoatu ki runga ki a ratou; a ko ratou hei hoa mou ki te waha i te pikaunga, ara i te iwi; kei waha e koe anake.

and I have come down and spoken with thee there, and have kept back of the Spirit which [is] upon thee, and have put on them, and they have borne with thee some of the burden of the people, and thou dost not bear [it] thyself alone.

18 Me ki atu hoki e koe ki te iwi, Whakatapu i a koutou mo apopo a ka kai kikokiko koutou: kua tangi na hoki koutou ki nga taringa o Ihowa, kua mea, Ma wai e homai he kikokiko hei kai ma matou? he pai hoki nga mea i a matou i Ihipa: mo reira ka hom ai e Ihowa he kikokiko ki a koutou, a ka kai koutou.

'And unto the people thou dost say, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow, and ye have eaten flesh (for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who doth give us flesh? for we [had] good in Egypt) — and Jehovah hath given to you flesh, and ye have eaten.

19 E kore e kotahi te ra e kai ai koutou, e kore ano hoki e rua nga ra, e kore e rima nga ra, e kore e tekau nga ra, e kore e rua tekau nga ra;

Ye do not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days; —

20 Engari kia pau te marama, a puta noa i o koutou ihu, a ngaruru iho koutou: mo koutou i whakahawea ki a Ihowa e noho nei i waenganui i a koutou, i tangi hoki ki tona aroaro, i mea, He aha tatou i haere mai ai i Ihipa?

unto a month of days, till that it come out from your nostrils, and it hath become to you an abomination; because that ye have loathed Jehovah, who [is] in your midst, and weep before Him, saying, Why is this? — we have come out of Egypt!'

21 Ko te iwi kei roto nei ahau i a ratou e ono rau mano, he hunga haere raro, a kua mea mai nei koe, Ka hoatu e ahau he kikokiko ki a ratou, a kia kotahi tino marama e kai ai ratou.

And Moses saith, 'Six hundred thousand footmen [are] the people in whose midst I [am]; and Thou, Thou hast said, Flesh I give to them, and they have eaten, a month of days!

22 Me patu ranei nga hipi me nga kau ma ratou, kia rato ai ratou? me kohi mai ranei nga ika katoa o te moana ma ratou, kia rato ai ratou?

Is flock and herd slaughtered for them, that one hath found for them? — are all the fishes of the sea gathered for them — that one hath found for them?'

23 Ano ra ko Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kua mutua ranei te ringa o Ihowa? ka kite koe aianei he pono ranei taku kupu ki a koe, kahore ranei.

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Is the hand of Jehovah become short? now thou dost see whether My word meeteth thee or not.'

24 Na ka puta a Mohi ki waho, a korerotia ana e ia nga kupu a Ihowa ki te iwi, a huihuia ana e ia e whitu tekau o nga kaumatua o te iwi, a whakaturia ana ki tetahi taha, ki tetahi taha o te tapenakara.

And Moses goeth out, and speaketh unto the people the words of Jehovah, and gathereth seventy men of the elders of the people, and causeth them to stand round about the tent,

25 Na ko te hekenga iho o Ihowa i roto i te kapua, ko te korerotanga hoki ki a ia, na ka tangohia e ia tetahi wahi o te wairua i runga i a ia, a hoatu ana ki nga kaumatua e whitu tekau: a i te taunga iho o te wairua ki a ratou, ka poropiti ratou, a kore ake i pera i muri.

and Jehovah cometh down in the cloud, and speaketh unto him, and keepeth back of the Spirit which [is] on him, and putteth on the seventy men of the elders; and it cometh to pass at the resting of the Spirit on them, that they prophesy, and do not cease.

26 A tokorua i mahue ki te puni, ko Ererara te ingoa o tetahi, ko Merara te ingoa o tetahi: na ko te taunga iho o te wairua ki runga ki a raua; no te hunga hoki raua i tuhituhia, otiia kihai i haere ki te tapenakara: na ka poropiti raua i roto i te puni.

And two of the men are left in the camp, the name of the one [is] Eldad, and the name of the second Medad, and the spirit resteth upon them, (and they are among those written, and have not gone out to the tent), and they prophesy in the camp;

27 Na ka oma tetahi taitama ki te korero ki a Mohi, a ka mea, Kei te poropiti a Ererara raua ko Merara i roto i te puni.

and the young man runneth, and declareth to Moses, and saith, 'Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.'

28 Na ko te ohonga o te tangata a Mohi, o Hohua tama a Nunu, ko tetahi hoki ia o ana taitamariki, ka mea, E toku ariki, e Mohi, riria raua.

And Joshua son of Nun, minister of Moses, [one] of his young men, answereth and saith, 'My lord Moses, restrain them.'

29 Ano ra ko Mohi ki a ia, He whakaaro ki ahau i hae ai koe? he oranga ngakau ra me i poropiti katoa te iwi o Ihowa, me i tukua iho hoki e Ihowa tona wairua ki a ratou.

And Moses saith to him, 'Art thou zealous for me? O that all Jehovah's people were prophets! that Jehovah would put His Spirit upon them!'

30 Na ka haere a Mohi ki roto ki te puni, a ia me nga kaumatua o Iharaira.

And Moses is gathered unto the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

31 Na ka puta he hau i a Ihowa, a kawea ana mai nga koitareke i te moana, kua maka ki te taha o te puni, kia kotahi pea te ra e haere ai i tetahi taha, kia kotahi pea hoki te ra e haere ai i tera taha, a tawhio noa te puni, me te mea ano e rua what ianga te teitei i runga i te mata o te whenua.

And a spirit hath journeyed from Jehovah, and cutteth off quails from the sea, and leaveth by the camp, as a day's journey here, and as a day's journey there, round about the camp, and about two cubits, on the face of the land.

32 Na ka tu te iwi a pau katoa taua ra, taua po katoa hoki, me te ra katoa hoki i te aonga ake, ki te kohikohi i nga koitareke: kotahi tekau nga homa a te tangata nana te kohinga iti: a horahorangia noatia atu ana e ratou hei kai ma ratou, a tawhio noa te puni.

And the people rise all that day, and all the night, and all the day after, and gather the quails — he who hath least hath gathered ten homers — and they spread them out for themselves round about the camp.

33 A, i te mea kei o ratou niho ano te kokokiko, i te mea kahore ano i ngaua noatia, na ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki te iwi, a whiua ana te iwi e Ihowa ki tetahi whiu nui rawa atu.

The flesh is yet between their teeth — it is not yet cut off — and the anger of Jehovah hath burned among the people, and Jehovah smiteth among the people — a very great smiting;

34 Na huaina iho e ia te ingoa o taua wahi ko Kipiroto Hataawa; no te mea i tanumia e ratou ki reira te hunga i minamina.

and [one] calleth the name of that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, for there they have buried the people who lust.

35 Na ka turia atu e te iwi i Kipiroto Hataawa ki Hateroto; a noho ana i Hateroto.

From Kibroth-Hattaavah have the people journeyed to Hazeroth, and they are in Hazeroth.
