Exodus 16 (MSY2020)

1Israelian gumazamiziba Elimɨn danganim ategha, ghua Senɨn gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganimɨn otifi. Danganir kam ana Elim ko Sainain Mɨghsɨamɨn tongɨra iti. Me otivizir dughiar kamran gɨn me Isipɨn kantri ategha ghue. Egha namba 2ɨn iakɨnim, an namba 15ɨn dughiamɨn, me gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganir kamɨn otifi.On the fifteenth day of the second month after they had left the land of Egypt, the whole congregation of Israel set out from Elim and came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai.

2Egha me danganir kamɨn ikia Moses ko Aronɨn atara, mɨgɨrɨgɨar avɨribar aning gami.And there in the desert the whole congregation of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron.

3Me kamaghɨn aning mɨgei, “Kamaghɨn deraghai, Ikiavɨra Itir God, Isipra e mɨsueghtɨ e arɨmɨghiregh. E Isipɨn kantrin ikia dagher guar igharagha gariba uan ifongiabar da api. E mɨtiriaba sara ikɨ aremeghasa gua ifonge. Egha e inigha gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganir kamɨn ize.”“If only we had died by the LORD’s hand in the land of Egypt!” they said. “There we sat by pots of meat and ate our fill of bread, but you have brought us into this desert to starve this whole assembly to death!”

4Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God Moses mɨgɨa ghaze, “Kɨ ia bagh bret overiamɨn anemadaghtɨ, an amozimɨn mɨn magɨrɨtɨ ia a iniam. Gumazamiziba dughiaba vaghvagh mangɨ dughiar vamɨra baghɨvɨra dagheba ini. Kɨ arazir kamɨn me damu gan fogh suam, me ti nan akamɨn gɨn mangam, o puvatɨgham.Then the LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain down bread from heaven for you. Each day the people are to go out and gather enough for that day. In this way I will test whether or not they will follow My instructions.

5Ezɨ dughiar namba 6ɨn, me dughiar pumuning bagh dagheba inigh dar arɨkigh.”Then on the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather on the other days.”

6Ezɨ Moses ko Aron kamaghɨn Israelian gumazamizibav gei, “Guaratɨzimɨn ia kamaghɨn fogh suam, Ikiavɨra Itir God uabɨ Isipɨn kantrin ia inigha azenan ize.So Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites, “This evening you will know that it was the LORD who brought you out of the land of Egypt,

7Ia an atara mɨgɨrɨgɨar avɨribar a gami, ezɨ an oregha gɨfa. Ia mɨzarazimɨn Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn gavgavim ko angazangarimɨn ganam. Ga pura gumazir kɨnimning. Ia manmaghsua gan atara mɨgei?”and in the morning you will see the LORD’s glory, because He has heard your grumbling against Him. For who are we, that you should grumble against us?”

8Egha Moses ua mɨgei, “Ikiavɨra Itir God uabɨ guaratɨzimɨn asɨzir tuziba ia danightɨ ia dar amam. Egh a mɨzarazibar bret ia danightɨ, ia uan ifongiabar a iniam. An orazi ia puram a mɨgei. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, a dagheba ia danɨngam. Ezɨ ga pura bizimning. Ia gan atara ga mɨgeir puvatɨ. Ia Ikiavɨra Itir Godra an atara a mɨgei.”And Moses added, “The LORD will give you meat to eat this evening and bread to fill you in the morning, for He has heard your grumbling against Him. Who are we? Your grumblings are not against us but against the LORD.”

9Egha Moses Aron mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ikiavɨra Itir God, bar gumazamizibar adarir mɨgɨrɨgɨaba baraki. Kamaghɨn amizɨ nɨ me mɨkemeghtɨ, me izɨ Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn damazimɨn tuifigh.”Then Moses said to Aaron, “Tell the whole congregation of Israel, ‘Come before the LORD, for He has heard your grumbling.’”

10Ezɨ Aron me mɨgɨavɨra itima, me kogha gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganir gigim gisɨn garima, Godɨn angazangarim zuamɨra ghuariar mamɨn aven oto.And as Aaron was speaking to the whole congregation of Israel, they looked toward the desert, and there in a cloud the glory of the LORD appeared.

11Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God kamaghɨn Moses mɨgei,Then the LORD said to Moses,

12“Kɨ Israelian adarir mɨgɨrɨgɨam baraki. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, nɨ me mɨkemeghtɨ, me guaratɨzibar asɨzir tuzibar amam. Egh me mɨzarazibar uan ifongiamɨn bretbar amam. Me dagher kam inigh gɨvagh, me fogh suam, Kɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God, kɨ uabɨ men God.”“I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell them, ‘At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God.’”

13Guaratɨzir kamɨn kuarazir muziarir bɨzim, mɨgha iza me itir danganim bar a gizɨfa. Ezɨ mɨzarazimɨn, ghuariar dɨpam ira, danganir men itim bar a gire.That evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.

14Ezɨ ghuariar dɨpam iregha mɨsɨngigha gɨvazɨ, me bizir muziarir avɨribar gari da nguazimɨn iti, egha da mati terafariba mɨsigha tintinibar mɨsaraghire.When the layer of dew had evaporated, there were thin flakes on the desert floor, as fine as frost on the ground.

15Ezɨ Israelia bizir kabar ganigha, dagh gɨfozir puvatɨ. Egha me kamaghɨn uarira uarir azai, “Kar bizir tizim?” Ezɨ Moses me mɨgei, “Kar bret, Ikiavɨra Itir God, ia damasa a ia ganɨngi.When the Israelites saw it, they asked one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. So Moses told them, “It is the bread that the LORD has given you to eat.

16Egha Ikiavɨra Itir God, akar gavgavim ia ganigha ghaze, ‘Ia vaghvagh uari bagh iniva uan adarazi sara me bagh inigh. Ia vaghvagh da iniva uan gumazamiziba ko boriba bagh vaghvagh mɨner muziaribar aghuigh.’ ”This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Each one is to gather as much as he needs. You may take an omer for each person in your tent.’”

17Egha Israelia God mɨkemezɨ moghɨn me ami. Ezɨ marazi bar uari bagha avɨriba inizɨ, marazi uari bagha muziaribara ini.So the Israelites did this. Some gathered more, and some less.

18Egha gɨn me dagher kabar garima, gumazamizir dagher avɨriba iniziba, men mɨneba izevezir puvatɨ. Ezɨ gumazamizir dagher avɨriba inizir puvatɨziba, men dagheba otevezir puvatɨ. Me da apa izevegha mɨtiriam men azir puvatɨ.When they measured it by the omer, he who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall. Each one gathered as much as he needed to eat.

19Ezɨ Moses me mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ia gurum bagh dagher na taba ataghɨraghan markɨ.”Then Moses said to them, “No one may keep any of it until morning.”

20Ezɨ gumazamizir maba Mosesɨn akam baraghizir puvatɨgha, dagher nar maba amɨmzaraghan bagha da arɨki. Ezɨ amɨmzaraghan dagher kaba apiziba dagh izɨvazɨma, da puvɨra mughasi. Ezɨ Moses men atari.But they did not listen to Moses; some people left part of it until morning, and it became infested with maggots and began to smell. So Moses was angry with them.

21Ezɨ zurara mɨzarazibar gumazamiziba, me ifongezɨ moghɨn, uari bagha dagheba isi. Ezɨ aruem anadir dughiamɨn, dagher me isir puvatɨziba nguazimɨn ikia, dɨpamɨn mɨn otiva puram amera gefi.Every morning each one gathered as much as was needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted away.

22Ezɨ aruer namba 6ɨn, me dughiar pumuning bagha dagheba ini. Gumazir vamɨra mɨner dozir pumuning pumuning gaghuizɨ, aning izɨvafa. Ezɨ Israelian gumazir dapaniba iza bizir kamɨn gun Moses mɨkeme.On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much food—two omers per person—and all the leaders of the congregation came and reported this to Moses.

23Ezɨ Moses kamaghɨn me mɨgei, “Ikiavɨra Itir God kamaghɨn mɨgei, gurum mɨzaraghan avughsamin dughiam. Kar Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam famin dughiam. Egha uaghan kar Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn dughiamra. Ia datɨrɨghɨn dagher nar manaba avimɨn da tuasa, ia da tu, egh dagher nar manaba ia mɨnemɨn da isamasa, ia da isam. Eghtɨ nar itir kaba ia gurum mɨzaraghan bagh bar ada atɨgh.”He told them, “This is what the LORD has said: ‘Tomorrow is to be a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. So bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil. Then set aside whatever remains and keep it until morning.’”

24Ezɨ me Mosesɨn akam baregha dagher maba tue. Egha dagher nar maba tuezir puvatɨ. Me amɨmzaraghan bagha da atɨzɨ da iti. Ezɨ dagher kaba kurizir puvatɨzɨ apiziba dagh amizir puvatɨ.So they set it aside until morning as Moses had commanded, and it did not smell or contain any maggots.

25Ezɨ amɨmzaraghan Moses kamaghɨn mɨgɨa ghaze, “Kar Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn dughiam, dughiar e avughsɨva, Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam famim. Ia dughiar kamɨn nguibamɨn azenan mangɨ dagheba burian kogham. Kamagh amizɨ, dagher nar itir kaba, ia dar amɨ.“Eat it today,” Moses said, “because today is a Sabbath to the LORD. Today you will not find anything in the field.

26Ia wighɨn vamɨran 6plan aruebar, dagher kaba ini. Egh namba 7ɨn aruem, kar avughsamin dughiam. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, dughiar kamɨn dagher tam nguazimɨn ikian kogham.”For six days you may gather, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, it will not be there.”

27Ezɨ dughiar namba 7ɨn, gumazamizir maba ghua dagheba iniasa zui. Egha me dagher tabar garir puvatɨ.Yet on the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they did not find anything.

28Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God Moses mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ia manadɨzoghɨn nan akaba barazir puvatɨzir arazim ategh, nan Akar Gavgavibar gɨntɨgham?Then the LORD said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep My commandments and instructions?

29Ia deraghvɨram oragh! Kɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God, kɨ avughsamin dughiar kam ia danɨngam. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ aruer namba 6ɨn, dughiar pumuningɨn damamin dagheba ia danɨngam. Egh aruer namba 7ɨn gumazamiziba bar danganir me itiba ataghɨraghan markɨ.”Understand that the LORD has given you the Sabbath; that is why on the sixth day He will give you bread for two days. On the seventh day, everyone must stay where he is; no one may leave his place.”

30Kamaghɨn amizɨ, me dughiar namba 7ɨn ingangarir tam gamir puvatɨ. Me avughsi.So the people rested on the seventh day.

31Ezɨ Israelian gumazamiziba dagher kam kamaghɨn a dɨbora ghaze, “Mana.” Hibrun akamɨn Manan kamɨn ganganim, temer ovɨzir muziarimɨn mɨn gara egha ghurghuri. Egha an isɨngtɨzim, mati bisketɨn me hani sara ingarizim.Now the house of Israel called the bread manna. It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey.

32Ezɨ Moses kamaghɨn me mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ikiavɨra Itir God kamaghɨn mɨgei, ‘E mɨner tam inigh, an manabar aghuam. Eghtɨ an en gɨn otivamin ovavir boriba bagh ikiam. Me gɨn an gan suam, kar Ikiavɨra Itir God e ganɨngizir daghem. A Isipɨn kantrin e inigha azenan iza gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganimɨn e atɨzir dughiam.’ ”Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Keep an omer of manna for the generations to come, so that they may see the bread I fed you in the wilderness when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’”

33Egha Moses Aron mɨgɨa ghaze, “Nɨ nguazir mɨner tam inigh, manan tabar aghuigh. Egh mɨnem isɨ Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn damazimɨn anetɨgh. Eghtɨ borir gɨn otivighamiba, a gɨfogham.”So Moses told Aaron, “Take a jar and fill it with an omer of manna. Then place it before the LORD to be preserved for the generations to come.”

34Ezɨ Aron manan dagher mɨner kam isa, gɨn izamin dughiam bagha, Akar Dɨkɨrɨzir Gavgavir Boksiam boroghɨn anetɨ, ezɨ Aron Ikiavɨra Itir God Moses mɨkemezɨ moghɨram ami.And Aaron placed it in front of the Testimony, to be preserved just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

35Ezɨ Israelia manan dagher kam apa ghua 40plan azenibar tu. Ezɨ 40plan azeniba gɨvazɨma me ghua Kenanian kantrin otivigha, kantrin kam gapiagha uari bagha azenibar ingari.The Israelites ate manna forty years, until they came to a land where they could settle; they ate manna until they reached the border of Canaan.

36(Dughiar kamɨn Israelia bizibar osɨmtɨzibagh fofoghamin skelɨn pumuning iti. Omer ko Epah, mam mɨner dozir vamɨran mɨn iti. Mam 10plan mɨner dozibar mɨn iti.)(Now an omer is a tenth of an ephah.)
