民数记 11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
以色列人发怨言
11 民众因为困难而发怨言，传到耶和华耳中。耶和华听见后便向他们发怒，使火在他们中间燃烧，烧毁了营地的边缘部分。 2 民众呼求摩西，摩西便向耶和华祷告，火就熄了。 3 那地方叫他备拉，因为耶和华的火曾在他们中间燃烧。
4 他们中间有一群乌合之众贪恋从前的食物，以色列人也哭着说：“要是有肉吃多好啊！ 5 还记得在埃及的时候，我们不花钱就可以吃鱼，还有黄瓜、西瓜、韭菜、葱和蒜。 6 我们现在毫无胃口，眼前除了吗哪外，什么都没有。” 7 吗哪的形状像芫荽籽，又像珍珠。 8-9 每天晚上露水降在营地上时，吗哪也随着降下来。早晨民众到四周捡吗哪，把吗哪磨碎或捣碎后，放在锅里煮，再做成饼，味道就像油饼。 10 听见民众都在自己帐篷门口哭泣，惹耶和华发怒，摩西感到难过， 11 就对耶和华说：“你为什么为难仆人？我做了什么令你不悦的事，你竟把管理这些民众的重担放在我身上？ 12 难道他们是我的骨肉，是我生的吗？为什么你要我像父亲呵护儿子一样，把他们抱到你应许给他们祖先的地方呢？ 13 他们都哭着向我要肉吃，我去哪里找肉给他们吃呢？ 14 管理民众的责任实在是太重了，我一个人担当不起啊！ 15 你既然这样对待我，求你施恩杀了我吧，别让我受苦了！”
16 耶和华对摩西说：“你给我招聚七十个以色列人的长老——你所了解的首领，把他们带到会幕，让他们站在你身边。 17 我要在那里降临，对你说话，把降在你身上的灵也赐给他们，让他们为你分担管理民众的责任，免得你独自承担。 18 你要叫民众洁净自己，到明天就会有肉吃。因为我听见了他们哭着要肉吃、说埃及的日子更好，我必给他们肉吃。 19 他们将不止吃一天、两天、五天、十天或二十天， 20 而是要吃整整一个月，直到肉从他们鼻孔里喷出来，令他们厌腻。因为他们厌弃我，在我面前哭诉，后悔离开埃及。” 21 摩西说：“和我同行的，仅男子就有六十万，你还说要让他们吃整整一个月的肉！ 22 就是把牛羊都宰了，把海里的鱼都捕来，恐怕也不够他们吃！” 23 耶和华说：“难道我的臂膀能力不够吗？你很快将看见我的话会不会应验。”
24 摩西就出去把耶和华的话转告民众，又选了七十位长老，叫他们站在会幕周围。 25 耶和华在云中降临，对摩西说话，把降在摩西身上的灵也赐给七十位长老。灵一降在他们身上，他们就说起预言来，但只说了这一次。 26 七十位长老中的伊利达和米达没有到会幕去，但耶和华的灵也降在他们身上，他们就在营中说起预言来。 27 有一个青年跑去禀告摩西说：“伊利达和米达正在营中说预言。” 28 摩西拣选的助手——嫩的儿子约书亚就说：“我主摩西，请你禁止他们。” 29 摩西说：“你是怕我的权威受影响吗？愿耶和华的子民都成为先知！愿耶和华把祂的灵降在他们身上！” 30 之后，摩西和以色列的长老都返回营中。
耶和华赐下鹌鹑
31 耶和华刮起一阵风，把鹌鹑从海面刮到营地四周，达一米之厚，方圆数公里。 32 民众花了两天一夜的时间去捕捉鹌鹑，每人至少捉了一吨。他们把鹌鹑摊在营地的周围。 33 他们口中的肉还没嚼烂，耶和华的怒气就已向他们发作，降下了大灾。 34 因此，那地方叫基博罗·哈他瓦[a]，因为那些贪食者埋葬在那里。 35 民众从基博罗·哈他瓦前往哈洗录，在哈洗录住了下来。

Numbers 11
American Standard Version
11 And the people were as murmurers, [a]speaking evil in the ears of Jehovah: and when Jehovah heard it, his anger was kindled; and the fire of Jehovah burnt among them, and devoured in the uttermost part of the camp. 2 And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto Jehovah, and the fire abated. 3 And the name of that place was called [b]Taberah, because the fire of Jehovah burnt among them.
4 And the mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat? 5 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt for nought; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic: 6 but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all save this manna to look upon. 7 And the manna was like coriander seed, and the [c]appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium. 8 The people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of [d]fresh oil. 9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell [e]upon it. 10 And Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent: and the anger of Jehovah was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased. 11 And Moses said unto Jehovah, Wherefore hast thou dealt ill with thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favor in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? 12 Have I conceived all this people? have I brought them forth, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing-father carrieth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? 13 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. 14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me. 15 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favor in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.
16 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with thee. 17 And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the Spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone. 18 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore Jehovah will give you flesh, and ye shall eat. 19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days, 20 but a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you; because that ye have rejected Jehovah who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt? 21 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month. 22 Shall flocks and herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them? 23 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Is Jehovah’s hand waxed short? now shalt thou see whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not.
24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of Jehovah: and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the Tent. 25 And Jehovah came down in the cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the Spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
26 But there remained two men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the Spirit rested upon them; and they were of them that were written, but had not gone out unto the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp. 27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. 28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, [f]one of his chosen men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. 29 And Moses said unto him, Art thou jealous for my sake? would that all Jehovah’s people were prophets, that Jehovah would put his Spirit upon them! 30 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31 And there went forth a wind from Jehovah, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall [g]by the camp, about a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, round about the camp, and about two cubits above the face of the earth. 32 And the people rose up all that day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp. 33 While the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the anger of Jehovah was kindled against the people, and Jehovah smote the people with a very great plague. 34 And the name of that place was called [h]Kibroth-hattaavah, because there they buried the people that lusted. 35 From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed unto Hazeroth; and they abode at Hazeroth.

4 Mózes 11
Hungarian New Translation
A táborégés
11 Egyszer a nép siránkozott az Úrnak, hogy rosszul megy a sora. Az Úr pedig meghallotta, és haragra gerjedt. Fölgyulladt ellenük az Úr tüze, és belekapott a tábor szélébe.
2 Ekkor a nép Mózeshez kiáltott, Mózes pedig imádkozott az Úrhoz, és elaludt a tűz.
3 Ezért nevezték el azt a helyet Tabérának, mert felgyulladt ellenük az Úr tüze.
A nép húst kíván
4 De a közöttük levő gyülevész nép telhetetlen volt kívánságában, ezért Izráel fiai újra siránkozni kezdtek, és ezt mondták: Ki tart jól bennünket hússal?
5 Emlékszünk, hogy Egyiptomban olcsón ettünk halat, uborkát, dinnyét, póréhagymát, vöröshagymát és fokhagymát.
6 Most pedig elepedünk, mert semmit sem látunk a mannán kívül.
7 A manna olyan volt, mint a koriandermag, hasonló az illatos gyantacsepphez.
8 A nép elszéledt, és úgy szedegette. Kézimalmon megőrölték, vagy mozsárban megtörték, azután fazékban megfőzték, és lepényt készítettek belőle. Olyan íze volt, mint az olajos süteménynek.
9 Amikor a harmat leszállt éjjel a táborra, akkor szállt le a manna is.
10 Mózes meghallotta, hogy a nép nemzetségeiben mindenki a sátra bejáratánál siránkozik. Akkor igen fölgerjedt az Úr haragja, és Mózes is rossznak látta ezt.
11 Ezért Mózes ezt mondta az Úrnak: Miért tettél szolgáddal ilyen rosszat? Miért nem vagy jóindulattal hozzám, miért raktad rám ennek az egész népnek a gondját?
12 Vajon bennem fogant-e meg ez az egész nép, és én szültem-e, hogy ezt mondod nekem: Ahogyan a dajka viszi a csecsemőt, úgy vidd az öledben arra a földre, amelyet esküvel ígértem atyáiknak?
13 Honnan vegyek húst, hogy adjak ennek az egész népnek? Hiszen így siránkoznak előttem: Adj nekünk húst, hadd együnk!
14 Nem tudom egyedül vinni ezt az egész népet, mert túl nehéz nekem.
15 Ha így bánsz velem, inkább nyomban ölj meg, légy ennyi jóindulattal hozzám! Ne kelljen látnom nyomorúságomat!
A hetven prófétáló vén
16 Azután ezt mondta az Úr Mózesnek: Gyűjts össze hetven férfit Izráel vénei közül, akikről tudod, hogy a nép vénei és elöljárói. Vidd oda őket a kijelentés sátrához, és álljanak föl ott veled.
17 Akkor leszállok és beszélek ott veled. Elveszek abból a lélekből, amely benned van, és nekik is adok, hogy veled együtt hordozzák a nép terhét, és ne magad hordozd azt.
18 A népnek pedig mondd meg: Szenteljétek meg magatokat holnapra, mert húst esztek! Hiszen így siránkoztok az Úrnak: Ki tart jól bennünket hússal? Milyen jó dolgunk volt Egyiptomban! Ezért majd ad nektek az Úr húst, és ehettek.
19 Nemcsak egy napig ehettek, nem is két napig, nem öt napig, nem tíz napig, nem húsz napig,
20 hanem egy álló hónapig, míg csak ki nem hányjátok, és míg meg nem undorodtok tőle, mivel megvetettétek az Urat, aki köztetek van, és így siránkoztatok előtte: Miért is jöttünk ki Egyiptomból?
21 Akkor ezt mondta Mózes: Hatszázezer gyalogos van ebben a népben, amely között vagyok, és te ezt mondod: Húst adok nekik enni egy álló hónapig?!
22 Vajon lehet-e annyi juhot és szarvasmarhát vágni nekik, hogy elég legyen? Vagy össze lehet-e gyűjteni a tenger minden halát, hogy elég legyen nekik?
23 De az Úr ezt mondta Mózesnek: Hát olyan kevés az Úr ereje? Majd meglátod, beteljesedik-e az én beszédem, vagy sem.
24 Mózes kiment és elbeszélte a népnek az Úr szavait, majd összegyűjtött hetven férfit a nép vénei közül, és a sátor köré állította őket.
25 Az Úr pedig leszállt felhőben, és beszélt hozzá. Majd elvett abból a lélekből, amely Mózesben volt, és annak a hetven vénnek adta. Amikor a lélek rajtuk nyugodott, akkor prófétáltak, de máskor nem.
26 Két férfi azonban a táborban maradt: az egyiknek Eldád, a másiknak Médád volt a neve. Rajtuk is megnyugodott a lélek, mert ők is az összeírottak között voltak. De ők nem mentek ki a sátorhoz, hanem a táborban prófétáltak.
27 Egy szolga meg elfutott és jelentette Mózesnek, hogy Eldád és Médád prófétálnak a táborban.
28 Akkor megszólalt Józsué, Nún fia, aki ifjúkorától fogva Mózes szolgája volt, és ezt mondta: Uram, Mózes, tiltsd meg nekik!
29 De Mózes ezt mondta neki: Miért vagy ilyen féltékeny? Bárcsak az Úr egész népe próféta volna, és nekik is adná lelkét az Úr!
30 Ezután Mózes visszavonult a táborba Izráel véneivel együtt.
A fürjek
31 Akkor az Úr szelet támasztott, amely a tenger felől fürjeket sodort, és lehullatta a táborra, innen is, onnan is egynapi távolságban a tábor körül, két könyöknyire a föld színén.
32 Akkor fölkelt a nép, és egész nap és egész éjjel, sőt az egész következő napon is gyűjtötték a fürjeket. Még aki keveset gyűjtött, az is gyűjtött tíz hómert, és sűrűn kiterítették azokat a tábor körül.
33 De a hús még a foguk között volt, még meg sem rágták, amikor az Úr haragra gerjedt a nép ellen, és megverte az Úr a népet igen nagy csapással.
34 Azt a helyet Kibrót-Taavának nevezték el, mert ott temették el a telhetetlen népet.
35 Kibrót-Taavából elindult a nép Hacérót felé, és Hacérótban tartózkodtak.
Numbers 11
World English Bible
11 The people were complaining in the ears of Yahweh. When Yahweh heard it, his anger burned; and Yahweh’s fire burned among them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp. 2 The people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to Yahweh, and the fire abated. 3 The name of that place was called Taberah,[a] because Yahweh’s fire burned among them.
4 The 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? 5 We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic; 6 but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna to look at.” 7 The manna was like coriander seed, and it looked like bdellium.[b] 8 The 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. 9 When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
10 Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and Yahweh’s anger burned greatly; and Moses was displeased. 11 Moses said to Yahweh, “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? 12 Have 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’? 13 Where could I get meat to give all these people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’ 14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me. 15 If 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.”
16 Yahweh 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. 17 I 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.
18 “Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of Yahweh, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt.” Therefore Yahweh will give you meat, and you will eat. 19 You will not eat just one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days, 20 but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected Yahweh who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt?”’”
21 Moses 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.’ 22 Shall 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?”
23 Yahweh said to Moses, “Has Yahweh’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”
24 Moses went out, and told the people Yahweh’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent. 25 Yahweh 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. 26 But 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. 27 A young man ran, and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
28 Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses, forbid them!”
29 Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all Yahweh’s people were prophets, that Yahweh would put his Spirit on them!”
30 Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel. 31 A wind from Yahweh 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[c] above the surface of the earth. 32 The 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;[d] and they spread them all out for themselves around the camp. 33 While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, Yahweh’s anger burned against the people, and Yahweh struck the people with a very great plague. 34 The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah,[e] because there they buried the people who lusted.
35 From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
