民数记 11
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
人民沿途埋怨,惹怒耶和华
11 人民发怨言,恶声达到耶和华的耳中;耶和华听见了,就发烈怒;耶和华的火就在他们中间焚烧,烧毁了营地的边界。 2 人民向摩西呼求,摩西恳求耶和华,火就熄了, 3 就称那地方作他备拉,因为耶和华的火曾在他们中间焚烧。
4 他们中间的闲杂人起了贪欲,甚至连以色列人也哭着说:“谁给我们肉吃呢? 5 我们记得在埃及的时候,可以不花钱吃鱼,还有黄瓜、西瓜、韭菜、葱和蒜。 6 现在我们的心都枯干了;除了这吗哪以外,在我们眼前,甚么都没有。” 7 这吗哪仿佛芫荽子,又好象珍珠。 8 人民走来走去,把吗哪拾起来,或用磨磨碎,或用臼捣碎,或用锅煮,或做成饼,它的滋味好象油饼的滋味。 9 夜间露水降在营上的时候,吗哪也随着降下来。
10 摩西听见人民都在各人的帐棚门口哀哭,耶和华就大发烈怒,摩西也不高兴。 11 摩西对耶和华说:“你为甚么苦待你的仆人,为甚么我没有在你面前蒙恩呢?竟把管理这人民的重担全放在我身上呢? 12 这人民岂是我怀的胎,岂是我生的吗?你竟对我说:‘把他们抱在怀里,像养育之父抱吃奶的孩子,直抱到你起誓应许给他们列祖的地方去。’ 13 我从哪里得肉给这人民吃呢?因为他们都向我哭着说:‘你给我们肉吃吧!’ 14 我不能独自担当管理这人民的责任,因为实在太重了。 15 你既然这样待我,如果我在你面前蒙恩,求你把我杀了,免得我看见自己的苦楚。”
耶和华叫摩西选立七十长老
16 耶和华对摩西说:“你要从以色列的长老中为我召聚七十个人,就是你认识的民间的长老和官长,领他们到会幕那里,叫他们与你一同站在那里。 17 我要在那里降临,与你说话,也要把在你身上的灵,分给他们,他们就与你一同担当管理人民的责任,免得你独自担当。 18 你要对人民说:‘你们应当自洁,预备明天可以吃肉,因为你们哭着向耶和华说:“谁给我们肉吃呢?我们在埃及多好。”所以耶和华必给你们肉吃。 19 你们不是吃一天两天,不是吃五天十天,也不是吃二十天, 20 而是吃一个整月,直到肉从你们的鼻孔里喷出来,成为你们厌恶的东西;因为你们轻视了住在你们中间的耶和华,在他面前哭着说:“我们为甚么出埃及呢?”’” 21 摩西说:“这与我同住的人,能行的男人就有六十万,你还说:‘我要给他们肉吃,使他们可以吃一个整月。’ 22 难道把羊群和牛群都给他们宰了,就够他们吃吗?或是把海里所有的鱼都给他们聚了来,就够他们吃吗?” 23 耶和华对摩西说:“耶和华的手臂缩短了吗?现在你要看看我的话对你应验不应验。”
24 于是摩西出来,把耶和华的话告诉人民,又从民间的长老中召聚了七十个人来,使他们站在会幕的周围。 25 耶和华在云中降临,对摩西说话,把摩西身上的灵,分给那七十个长老;灵停在他们身上的时候,他们就说预言,以后却没有再说。
26 那时还有两个人留在营里;一个名叫伊利达,一个名叫米达;灵也停在他们身上。他们原是在被录取的人中,却没有到会幕那里去;他们就在营里说预言。 27 有个少年人跑来,告诉摩西:“伊利达和米达在营中说预言。” 28 摩西的侍从,嫩的儿子约书亚,就是摩西所拣选的,回答说:“我主,摩西,请你制止他们。” 29 摩西对他说:“你为我的缘故嫉妒吗?但愿耶和华的人民都是先知,但愿耶和华把他的灵降在他们身上。” 30 于是摩西和以色列的长老,都回营去了。 31 有风从耶和华那里吹起,把鹌鹑由海面刮来,散落在营地;鹌鹑在营的四周,这边约有一天的路程,那边约有一天的路程,离地面约有一公尺。
耶和华降下鹌鹑
32 人民起来,那一天终日终夜,并次日一整天,都在捕捉鹌鹑,最少的也捕捉了约二千公升;他们都摆在营地的四周。 33 肉在他们牙齿之间,还没有嚼烂,耶和华的怒气就向人民发作,用极重的灾祸击打他们。 34 于是那地方名叫基博罗.哈他瓦,因为他们在那里埋葬起了贪欲的人。 35 人民从基博罗.哈他瓦起行,到哈洗录去,就住在哈洗录。
Numbers 11
New International Version
Fire From the Lord
11 Now the people complained(A) about their hardships in the hearing of the Lord,(B) and when he heard them his anger was aroused.(C) Then fire from the Lord burned among them(D) and consumed(E) some of the outskirts of the camp. 2 When the people cried out to Moses, he prayed(F) to the Lord(G) and the fire died down. 3 So that place was called Taberah,[a](H) because fire from the Lord had burned among them.(I)
Quail From the Lord
4 The rabble with them began to crave other food,(J) and again the Israelites started wailing(K) and said, “If only we had meat to eat! 5 We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic.(L) 6 But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!(M)”
7 The manna was like coriander seed(N) and looked like resin.(O) 8 The people went around gathering it,(P) and then ground it in a hand mill or crushed it in a mortar. They cooked it in a pot or made it into loaves. And it tasted like something made with olive oil. 9 When the dew(Q) settled on the camp at night, the manna also came down.
10 Moses heard the people of every family wailing(R) at the entrance to their tents. The Lord became exceedingly angry, and Moses was troubled. 11 He asked the Lord, “Why have you brought this trouble(S) on your servant? What have I done to displease you that you put the burden of all these people on me?(T) 12 Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth? Why do you tell me to carry them in my arms, as a nurse carries an infant,(U) to the land you promised on oath(V) to their ancestors?(W) 13 Where can I get meat for all these people?(X) They keep wailing to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’ 14 I cannot carry all these people by myself; the burden is too heavy for me.(Y) 15 If this is how you are going to treat me, please go ahead and kill me(Z)—if I have found favor in your eyes—and do not let me face my own ruin.”
16 The Lord said to Moses: “Bring me seventy of Israel’s elders(AA) who are known to you as leaders and officials among the people.(AB) Have them come to the tent of meeting,(AC) that they may stand there with you. 17 I will come down and speak with you(AD) there, and I will take some of the power of the Spirit that is on you and put it on them.(AE) They will share the burden of the people with you so that you will not have to carry it alone.(AF)
18 “Tell the people: ‘Consecrate yourselves(AG) in preparation for tomorrow, when you will eat meat. The Lord heard you when you wailed,(AH) “If only we had meat to eat! We were better off in Egypt!”(AI) Now the Lord will give you meat,(AJ) and you will eat it. 19 You will not eat it for just one day, or two days, or five, ten or twenty days, 20 but for a whole month—until it comes out of your nostrils and you loathe it(AK)—because you have rejected the Lord,(AL) who is among you, and have wailed before him, saying, “Why did we ever leave Egypt?”’”(AM)
21 But Moses said, “Here I am among six hundred thousand men(AN) on foot, and you say, ‘I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!’ 22 Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?”(AO)
23 The Lord answered Moses, “Is the Lord’s arm too short?(AP) Now you will see whether or not what I say will come true for you.(AQ)”
24 So Moses went out and told the people what the Lord had said. He brought together seventy of their elders and had them stand around the tent. 25 Then the Lord came down in the cloud(AR) and spoke with him,(AS) and he took some of the power of the Spirit(AT) that was on him and put it on the seventy elders.(AU) When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied(AV)—but did not do so again.
26 However, two men, whose names were Eldad and Medad, had remained in the camp. They were listed among the elders, but did not go out to the tent. Yet the Spirit also rested on them,(AW) and they prophesied in the camp. 27 A young man ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
28 Joshua son of Nun,(AX) who had been Moses’ aide(AY) since youth, spoke up and said, “Moses, my lord, stop them!”(AZ)
29 But Moses replied, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the Lord’s people were prophets(BA) and that the Lord would put his Spirit(BB) on them!”(BC) 30 Then Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp.
31 Now a wind went out from the Lord and drove quail(BD) in from the sea. It scattered them up to two cubits[b] deep all around the camp, as far as a day’s walk in any direction. 32 All that day and night and all the next day the people went out and gathered quail. No one gathered less than ten homers.[c] Then they spread them out all around the camp. 33 But while the meat was still between their teeth(BE) and before it could be consumed, the anger(BF) of the Lord burned against the people, and he struck them with a severe plague.(BG) 34 Therefore the place was named Kibroth Hattaavah,[d](BH) because there they buried the people who had craved other food.
35 From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth(BI) and stayed there.
