Numbers 11

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Now the people complained in the hearing of the LORD; and when he heard it his wrath flared up so that the fire of the LORD burned among them and consumed the outskirts of the camp.	1 وكان الشعب كأنهم يشتكون شرا في اذني الرب وسمع الرب فحمي غضبه. فاشتعلت فيهم نار الرب واحرقت في طرف المحلّة.
2 But when the people cried out to Moses, he prayed to the LORD and the fire died out.	2 فصرخ الشعب الى موسى فصلى موسى الى الرب فخمدت النار.
3 Hence that place was called Taberah, because there the fire of the LORD burned among them.	3 فدعي اسم ذلك الموضع تبعيرة لان نار الرب اشتعلت فيهم
4 The foreign elements among them were so greedy for meat that even the Israelites lamented again, "Would that we had meat for food!	4 واللفيف الذي في وسطهم اشتهى شهوة. فعاد بنو اسرائيل ايضا وبكوا وقالوا من يطعمنا لحما.
5 We remember the fish we used to eat without cost in Egypt, and the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic.	5 قد تذكرنا السمك الذي كنا ناكله في مصر مجانا والقثاء والبطيخ والكرّاث والبصل والثوم.
6 But now we are famished; we see nothing before us but this manna."	6 والآن قد يبست انفسنا. ليس شيء غير ان اعيننا الى هذا المنّ.
7 Manna was like coriander seed and had the appearance of bdellium.	7 واما المنّ فكان كبزر الكزبرة ومنظره كمنظر المقل
8 When they had gone about and gathered it up, the people would grind it between millstones or pound it in a mortar, then cook it in a pot and make it into loaves, which tasted like cakes made with oil.	8 كان الشعب يطوفون ليلتقطوه ثم يطحنونه بالرحى او يدقونه في الهاون ويطبخونه في القدور ويعملونه ملات. وكان طعمه كطعم قطائف بزيت.
9 At night, when the dew fell upon the camp, the manna also fell.	9 ومتى نزل الندى على المحلّة ليلا كان ينزل المنّ معه
10 When Moses heard the people, family after family, crying at the entrance of their tents, so that the LORD became very angry, he was grieved.	10 فلما سمع موسى الشعب يبكون بعشائرهم كل واحد في باب خيمته وحمي غضب الرب جدا ساء ذلك في عيني موسى.
11 "Why do you treat your servant so badly?" Moses asked the LORD. "Why are you so displeased with me that you burden me with all this people?	11 فقال موسى للرب لماذا اسأت الى عبدك ولماذا لم اجد نعمة في عينيك حتى انك وضعت ثقل جميع هذا الشعب عليّ.
12 Was it I who conceived all this people? or was it I who gave them birth, that you tell me to carry them at my bosom, like a foster father carrying an infant, to the land you have promised under oath to their fathers?	12 ألعلّي حبلت بجميع هذا الشعب او لعلّي ولدته حتى تقول لي احمله في حضنك كما يحمل المربي الرضيع الى الارض التي حلفت لآبائه.
13 Where can I get meat to give to all this people? For they are crying to me, 'Give us meat for our food.'	13 من اين لي لحم حتى اعطي جميع هذا الشعب. لانهم يبكون عليّ قائلين اعطنا لحما لناكل.
14 I cannot carry all this people by myself, for they are too heavy for me.	14 لا اقدر انا وحدي ان احمل جميع هذا الشعب لانه ثقيل عليّ.
15 If this is the way you will deal with me, then please do me the favor of killing me at once, so that I need no longer face this distress."	15 فان كنت تفعل بي هكذا فاقتلني قتلا ان وجدت نعمة في عينيك. فلا ارى بليتي
16 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Assemble for me seventy of the elders of Israel, men you know for true elders and authorities among the people, and bring them to the meeting tent. When they are in place beside you,	16 فقال الرب لموسى اجمع اليّ سبعين رجلا من شيوخ اسرائيل الذين تعلم انهم شيوخ الشعب وعرفاؤه واقبل بهم الى خيمة الاجتماع فيقفوا هناك معك.
17 I will come down and speak with you there. I will also take some of the spirit that is on you and will bestow it on them, that they may share the burden of the people with you. You will then not have to bear it by yourself.	17 فانزل انا واتكلم معك هناك وآخذ من الروح الذي عليك واضع عليهم فيحملون معك ثقل الشعب فلا تحمل انت وحدك.
18 "To the people, however, you shall say: Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, when you shall have meat to eat. For in the hearing of the LORD you have cried, 'Would that we had meat for food! Oh, how well off we were in Egypt!' Therefore the LORD will give you meat for food,	18 وللشعب تقول تقدسوا للغد فتأكلوا لحما. لانكم قد بكيتم في اذني الرب قائلين من يطعمنا لحما. انه كان لنا خير في مصر. فيعطيكم الرب لحما فتأكلون.
19 and you will eat it, not for one day, or two days, or five, or ten, or twenty days,	19 تاكلون لا يوما واحدا ولا يومين ولا خمسة ايام ولا عشرة ايام ولا عشرين يوما
20 but for a whole month-until it comes out of your very nostrils and becomes loathsome to you. For you have spurned the LORD who is in your midst, and in his presence you have wailed, 'Why did we ever leave Egypt?'"	20 بل شهرا من الزمان حتى يخرج من مناخركم ويصير لكم كراهة لانكم رفضتم الرب الذي في وسطكم وبكيتم امامه قائلين لماذا خرجنا من مصر.
21 But Moses said, "The people around me include six hundred thousand soldiers; yet you say, 'I will give them meat to eat for a whole month.'	21 فقال موسى ست مئة الف ماش هو الشعب الذي انا في وسطه. وانت قد قلت اعطيهم لحما ليأكلوا شهرا من الزمان.
22 Can enough sheep and cattle be slaughtered for them? If all the fish of the sea were caught for them, would they have enough?"	22 أيذبح لهم غنم وبقر ليكفيهم ام يجمع لهم كل سمك البحر ليكفيهم
23 The LORD answered Moses, "Is this beyond the LORD'S reach? You shall see now whether or not what I have promised you takes place."	23 فقال الرب لموسى هل تقصر يد الرب. الآن ترى أيوافيك كلامي ام لا
24 So Moses went out and told the people what the LORD had said. Gathering seventy elders of the people, he had them stand around the tent.	24 فخرج موسى وكلم الشعب بكلام الرب وجمع سبعين رجلا من شيوخ الشعب واوقفهم حوالي الخيمة.
25 The LORD then came down in the cloud and spoke to him. Taking some of the spirit that was on Moses, he bestowed it on the seventy elders; and as the spirit came to rest on them, they prophesied.	25 فنزل الرب في سحابة وتكلم معه واخذ من الروح الذي عليه وجعل على السبعين رجلا الشيوخ. فلما حلّت عليهم الروح تنبأوا ولكنهم لم يزيدوا.
26 Now two men, one named Eldad and the other Medad, were not in the gathering but had been left in the camp. They too had been on the list, but had not gone out to the tent; yet the spirit came to rest on them also, and they prophesied in the camp.	26 وبقي رجلان في المحلّة اسم الواحد ألداد واسم الآخر ميداد فحلّ عليهما الروح. وكانا من المكتوبين لكنهما لم يخرجا الى الخيمة. فتنبّآ في المحلّة.
27 So, when a young man quickly told Moses, "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp,"	27 فركض غلام واخبر موسى وقال ألداد وميداد يتنبّآن في المحلّة.
28 Joshua, son of Nun, who from his youth had been Moses' aide, said, "Moses, my lord, stop them."	28 فاجاب يشوع بن نون خادم موسى من حداثته وقال يا سيدي موسى اردعهما.
29 But Moses answered him, "Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the people of the LORD were prophets! Would that the LORD might bestow his spirit on them all!"	29 فقال له موسى هل تغار انت لي. يا ليت كل شعب الرب كانوا انبياء اذا جعل الرب روحه عليهم
30 Then Moses retired to the camp, along with the elders of Israel.	30 ثم انحاز موسى الى المحلّة هو وشيوخ اسرائيل.
31 There arose a wind sent by the LORD, that drove in quail from the sea and brought them down over the camp site at a height of two cubits from the ground for the distance of a day's journey all around the camp.	31 فخرجت ريح من قبل الرب وساقت سلوى من البحر وألقتها على المحلّة نحو مسيرة يوم من هنا ومسيرة يوم من هناك حوالي المحلّة ونحو ذراعين فوق وجه الارض.
32 All that day, all night, and all the next day the people gathered in the quail. Even the one who got the least gathered ten homers of them. Then they spread them out all around the camp.	32 فقام الشعب كل ذلك النهار وكل الليل وكل يوم الغد وجمعوا السلوى. الذي قلل جمع عشرة حوامر. وسطحوها لهم مساطح حوالي المحلة
33 But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it could be consumed, the LORD'S wrath flared up against the people, and he struck them with a very great plague.	33 واذ كان اللحم بعد بين اسنانهم قبل ان ينقطع حمي غضب الرب على الشعب وضرب الرب الشعب ضربة عظيمة جدا.
34 So that place was named Kibroth-hattaavah, because it was there that the greedy people were buried.	34 فدعي اسم ذلك الموضع قبروت هتّأوة لانهم هناك دفنوا القوم الذين اشتهوا.
35 From Kibroth-hattaavah the people set out for Hazeroth.	35 ومن قبروت هتّأوة ارتحل الشعب الى حضيروت فكانوا في حضيروت
