Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1The people were complaining in the ears of the LORD. When the LORD heard it, his anger burned; and the LORD’s fire burned among them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
1Pea 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.
2The people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD, and the fire abated.
2Pea naʻe tangi ʻae kakai kia Mōsese pea ʻi he lotu ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ne mate ai ʻae afi.
3The name of that place was called Taberah, because the LORD’s fire burned among them.
3Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ʻae potu ko ia ko Tapela: koeʻuhi naʻe vela ai ʻae afi ʻa Sihova ʻiate kinautolu.
4The mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly; and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?
4¶ 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?
5We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
5ʻOku 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:
6but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna to look at.”
6Ka ko eni kuo fakamahamaha ʻetau moʻui ke ʻosi; ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi hotau ʻao, ka ko e mana ni.”
7The manna was like coriander seed, and it looked like bdellium.
7Pea naʻe hangē ko e tengaʻi kolianita ʻae mana, pea ko hono lanu naʻe hangē ko e lanu ʻoe mataʻitofe.
8The people went around, gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it. Its taste was like the taste of fresh oil.
8Pea 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,
9When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
9Pea ʻi heʻene tō ʻae hahau ʻi he poʻuli ki he ʻapitanga, naʻe tō ʻae mana ki ai.
10Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and the LORD’s anger burned greatly; and Moses was displeased.
10¶ 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.
11Moses said to the LORD, “Why have you treated your servant so badly? Why haven’t I found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
11Pea 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?
12Have I conceived all this people? Have I brought them out, that you should tell me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which you swore to their fathers’?
12He 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?
13Where could I get meat to give all these people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’
13Pea 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.
14I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
14ʻOku ʻikai te u mālohi ke u fua tokotaha pe ʻae kakai ni, koeʻuhi ʻoku nau mamafa fau kiate au.
15If you treat me this way, please kill me right now, if I have found favor in your sight; and don’t let me see my wretchedness.”
15Pea 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.”
16The LORD said to Moses, “Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; and bring them to the Tent of Meeting, that they may stand there with you.
16¶ 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.
17I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you don’t bear it yourself alone.
17Pea 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“Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt.” Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat.
18Pea 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.
19You will not eat just one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days,
19ʻE 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;
20but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected the LORD who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt?”’”
20Ka 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?”
21Moses said, “The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand men on foot; and you have said, ‘I will give them meat, that they may eat a whole month.’
21Pea 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.
22Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to be sufficient for them? Shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to be sufficient for them?”
22ʻE 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?”
23The LORD said to Moses, “Has the LORD’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”
23Pea 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.”
24Moses went out, and told the people the LORD’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent.
24¶ 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.
25The LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him, and put it on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
25Pea 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.
26But two men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the Spirit rested on them. They were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
26Ka 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.
27A young man ran, and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
27Pea naʻe lele ʻae tangata talavou, ʻo ne pehē kia Mōsese, “ʻOku kikite ʻa ʻElitati mo Metati ʻi he ʻapitanga.”
28Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses, forbid them!”
28Pea 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.”
29Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD’s people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!”
29Pea 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.”
30Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
30Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ki he ʻapitanga, ʻaia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli.
31A wind from the LORD went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the earth.
31¶ 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.
32The people rose up all that day, and all of that night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails. He who gathered least gathered ten homers; and they spread them all out for themselves around the camp.
32Pea 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.
33While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the LORD’s anger burned against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.
33Pea 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.
34The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
34Pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ʻae potu ko ia ko Kipiloti-Hateva: koeʻuhi naʻa nau tanu ʻi ai ʻae kakai ʻaia naʻe holi kovi.
35From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
35Pea naʻe fononga atu ʻae kakai mei Kipiloti-Hateva ki Heseloti; pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi Heseloti.
