Nomipā 14
1Then all the congregation raised a loud cry, and the people wept that night.
1PEA naʻe hiki hake ʻae leʻo ʻoe kakai kotoa pē, ʻo tangi; pea naʻe tangi ʻae kakai ʻi he pō ko ia.
2And all the people of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron. The whole congregation said to them, “Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! Or would that we had died in this wilderness!
2Pea naʻe lāunga ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese pea mo ʻElone: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē kiate kinaua, “ʻAmusiaange ʻekimautolu ne mau mate ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite! Pea ʻamusiaange ʻekimautolu naʻa mau mate ʻi he toafa ni!
3Why is the LORD bringing us into this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will become a prey. Would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?”
3Pea ko e hā kuo ʻomi ai ʻe Sihova ʻakimautolu ki he fonua ni, ke mau tō ʻi he heletā, kae tuku homau ʻunoho mo ʻemau fānau ke pōpula? ʻIkai ʻe lelei hake ʻemau toe foki ki ʻIsipite?”
4And they said to one another, “Let us choose a leader and go back to Egypt.”
4Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki, ʻo pehē, “Ke tau fakanofo ha ʻeiki, pea tau foki ki ʻIsipite.
5Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the people of Israel.
5Pea naʻe tō foʻohifo ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ki hona mata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakataha ʻoe kakai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.”
6And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes
6Pea ko Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu naʻe vakai ki he fonua, pea naʻa na hae hona kofu:
7and said to all the congregation of the people of Israel, “The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceedingly good land.
7Pea naʻa na lea ki he fakataha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko e fonua naʻa mau ʻalu ke vakai ki ai, ko e fungani fonua lelei.
8If the LORD delights in us, he will bring us into this land and give it to us, a land that flows with milk and honey.
8Kapau ʻe fiemālie ʻa Sihova ʻiate kitautolu, pea te ne ʻave ʻakitautolu ki he fonua ko ia, ʻo foaki ia kiate kitautolu; ko e fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi.
9Only do not rebel against the LORD. And do not fear the people of the land, for they are bread for us. Their protection is removed from them, and the LORD is with us; do not fear them.”
9Ke ʻoua pe naʻa mou angatuʻu kia Sihova, pea ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē ki he kakai ʻoe fonua; he ko e meʻakai maʻatautolu ʻakinautolu: kuo mole honau mālohi ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻa Sihova: ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē kiate kinautolu.”
10Then all the congregation said to stone them with stones. But the glory of the LORD appeared at the tent of meeting to all the people of Israel.
10Ka naʻe tala ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ke lisingi ʻakinaua ʻaki ʻae maka. Pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli.
11And the LORD said to Moses, “How long will this people despise me? And how long will they not believe in me, in spite of all the signs that I have done among them?
11Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe fakaʻita mai ʻae kakai ni kiate au? ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo e teʻeki tenau tui kiate au, ʻi he ngaahi fakaʻilonga ne u fakahā kiate kinautolu?
12I will strike them with the pestilence and disinherit them, and I will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they.”
12Te u taaʻi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea te u liʻaki ʻakinautolu, pea te u ngaohi ko e koe puleʻanga lahi mo mālohi ʻiate kinautolu.”
13But Moses said to the LORD, “Then the Egyptians will hear of it, for you brought up this people in your might from among them,
13Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova, “ʻE toki fanongo ki ai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, (he naʻa ke ʻomi ʻi ho mālohi ʻae kakai ni meiate kinautolu;)
14and they will tell the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that you, O LORD, are in the midst of this people. For you, O LORD, are seen face to face, and your cloud stands over them and you go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.
14Pea tenau tala ia ki he kakai ʻoe fonua ni: he kuo nau fanongo ko koe ko Sihova ʻoku ke ʻi he kakai ni, kuo ke femamataʻaki pe, pea kuo tuʻu hoʻo ʻao ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi he pou ʻoe ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, pea mo e pou ʻoe afi ʻi he pō.
15Now if you kill this people as one man, then the nations who have heard your fame will say,
15Pea ko eni, kapau te ke tāmateʻi ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻe toki lea ai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kuo nau fanongo ki ho ongoongo, ʻo pehē,
16‘It is because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land that he swore to give to them that he has killed them in the wilderness.’
16Koeʻuhi kuo ʻikai faʻa ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai ni ki he fonua naʻa ne fuakava ai kiate kinautolu, ko ia kuo ne tāmateʻi ai ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa.
17And now, please let the power of the Lord be great as you have promised, saying,
17Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, tuku ke lahi ʻae mālohi ʻo hoku ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola, naʻe pehē,
18‘The LORD is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, to the third and the fourth generation.’
18ʻOku kātaki fuoloa ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku lahi ʻene ʻaloʻofa, ʻoku faʻa fakamolemole ʻe ia ʻae angahala mo e fai meʻa kovi, ka ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe ia ʻae halaia: ʻoku fakahoko ki he fānau hono nunuʻa ʻoe hia ʻae mātuʻa ʻo aʻu ki he toʻutangata ʻe tolu mo hono fā.
19Please pardon the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of your steadfast love, just as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt until now.”
19ʻOku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, ke ke fakamolemole ʻae angahala ʻae kakai ni ʻo tatau mo hono lahi ʻo hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, pea hangē ko hoʻo fakamolemole ʻae kakai ni, mei ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu mai ki heni.”
20Then the LORD said, “I have pardoned, according to your word.
20Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Kuo u fakamolemole ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea.
21But truly, as I live, and as all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD,
21Ka e hangē ko e moʻoni ʻa ʻeku moʻui, ʻe pito ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻi he nāunau ʻo Sihova.
22none of the men who have seen my glory and my signs that I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and yet have put me to the test these ten times and have not obeyed my voice,
22Koeʻuhi ko e kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe mamata ki hoku nāunau, pea mo ʻeku ngaahi ngāue mana, ʻaia ne u fai ʻi ʻIsipite, pea mo e toafa, kuo nau fakaʻitaʻi au ʻo liunga hongofulu, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fanongo ki hoku leʻo;
23shall see the land that I swore to give to their fathers. And none of those who despised me shall see it.
23Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai tenau mamata ki he fonua ne u fuakava ai ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea ʻe ʻikai mamata ai ha taha ʻiate kinautolu naʻe fakaʻita kiate au:
24But my servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit and has followed me fully, I will bring into the land into which he went, and his descendants shall possess it.
24Ka ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Kelepi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kehe, pea kuo muimui ʻaupito ia kiate au, ko ia te u ʻomi ai ia ki he fonua naʻe ʻalu ia ki ai; pea ʻe maʻu ia ʻe hono hako.
25Now, since the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valleys, turn tomorrow and set out for the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.”
25(Pea ko eni, naʻe nofo ʻi he vahaʻa moʻunga ʻae kau ʻAmaleki mo e kau Kēnani,) Mou toe foki ʻapongipongi, pea mou ō ki he toafa ʻi he hala ki he Tahi Kulokula.”
26And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
26Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
27“How long shall this wicked congregation grumble against me? I have heard the grumblings of the people of Israel, which they grumble against me.
27“ʻE fēfē hono fai fuoloa ʻae kakai kovi ni, mo ʻenau lāunga kiate au? Kuo u fanongo ki he lāunga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, kuo nau lāunga ai kiate au.
28Say to them, ‘As I live, declares the LORD, what you have said in my hearing I will do to you:
28Ke ke tala kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e moʻoni ʻa ʻeku moʻui, pea te u fai kiate kimoutolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou lea ʻi hoku telinga:
29your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness, and of all your number, listed in the census from twenty years old and upward, who have grumbled against me,
29ʻE tō homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa ni ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe lau ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻo fakatatau ki homou lau kotoa pē, mei hono taʻu ʻe uofulu tupu, ʻakinautolu ʻaia kuo lāunga kiate au,
30not one shall come into the land where I swore that I would make you dwell, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.
30Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai te mou hoko atu ki he fonua, ʻaia ne u fuakava ke tuku kiate kimoutolu ke mou nofo ai, ka ko Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, mo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni.
31But your little ones, who you said would become a prey, I will bring in, and they shall know the land that you have rejected.
31Ka ko hoʻomou fānau, ʻakinautolu naʻa mou pehē ki ai tenau pōpula, te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki ai, pea ʻe ʻilo ʻekinautolu ʻae fonua kuo mou liʻaki.
32But as for you, your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness.
32Ka ko kimoutolu, ʻe tō homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa ni.
33And your children shall be shepherds in the wilderness forty years and shall suffer for your faithlessness, until the last of your dead bodies lies in the wilderness.
33Pea ʻe ʻalu fano pe hoʻomou fānau ʻi he toafa ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo fua hoʻomou feʻauaki, kaeʻoua ke ʻosiʻosi homou ʻangaʻanga ʻi he toafa.
34According to the number of the days in which you spied out the land, forty days, a year for each day, you shall bear your iniquity forty years, and you shall know my displeasure.’
34ʻE fakatatau ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻaia naʻa mou mataki ai ʻae fonua, ʻio, ko e ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, ko e ʻaho taki taha ki he taʻu ʻe taha, ʻio, ko e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu te mou fua hoʻomou angahala, pea te mou ʻilo ai ʻeku fakamamahi,
35I, the LORD, have spoken. Surely this will I do to all this wicked congregation who are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall come to a full end, and there they shall die.”
35Kuo u lea ʻaki eni ʻeau ko Sihova, ko e moʻoni te u fai ia ki he kakai kovi ni kotoa pē, kuo tānaki ʻo fakataha ke angatuʻu kiate au: ʻe fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa ni, pea tenau mate ʻi ai.
36And the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned and made all the congregation grumble against him by bringing up a bad report about the land—
36Pea ko e kau tangata, naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kenau ʻalu ʻo vakai ki he fonua, ne nau liliu mai, pea naʻa nau fakalanga lāunga ʻi he kakai kiate ia, ʻi heʻenau ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kovi ʻoe fonua,
37the men who brought up a bad report of the land—died by plague before the LORD.
37ʻIo, ʻae kau tangata naʻe ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kovi ʻoe fonua, naʻa nau mate ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha.
38Of those men who went to spy out the land, only Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive.
38Ka naʻe fakamoʻui ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune, naʻa na ʻiate kinautolu naʻe ʻalu ke vakai ki he fonua.
39When Moses told these words to all the people of Israel, the people mourned greatly.
39Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi lea ni ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe loto mamahi lahi ʻae kakai.
40And they rose early in the morning and went up to the heights of the hill country, saying, “Here we are. We will go up to the place that the LORD has promised, for we have sinned.”
40Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake pe, pea naʻa nau ō ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga, ʻonau pehē, “Vakai, kuo tau ʻi heni, ka tau ō ki he potu ʻaia kuo talaʻofa ki ai ʻe Sihova: he kuo mau angahala.”
41But Moses said, “Why now are you transgressing the command of the LORD, when that will not succeed?
41Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko e hā eni ʻoku mou talangataʻa ai ki he fekau ʻa Sihova? Ka ʻe ʻikai monūʻia ia.
42Do not go up, for the Lord is not among you, lest you be struck down before your enemies.
42ʻOua naʻa mou ʻalu hake, he ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova; naʻa taaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo homou ngaahi fili.
43For there the Amalekites and the Canaanites are facing you, and you shall fall by the sword. Because you have turned back from following the LORD, the LORD will not be with you.”
43He ko e kau ʻAmaleki mo e kau Kēnani ʻoku nau ʻi ai ʻi homou ʻao, pea te mou tō ʻi he heletā: koeʻuhi kuo mou fulituʻa kia Sihova, ko ia ʻe ʻikai ai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.”
44But they presumed to go up to the heights of the hill country, although neither the ark of the covenant of the LORD nor Moses departed out of the camp.
44Ka naʻa nau talangataʻa pe ʻonau ʻalu ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga: ka ko e puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea mo Mōsese, naʻe ʻikai ʻalu mei he ʻapitanga.
45Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country came down and defeated them and pursued them, even to Hormah.
45Pea naʻe toki hifo mai ʻae kau ʻAmaleki, mo e kau Kēnani, ʻakinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi he moʻunga ko ia, ʻonau taaʻi ʻakinautolu, mo haha ʻakinautolu, ʻo aʻu ki Hoama.
