第十四章 Numbers 14
1.當下，全會眾大聲喧嚷；那夜百姓都哭號。
That night all the members of the community raised their voices and wept aloud.
2.以色列眾人向摩西、亞倫發怨言；全會眾對他們說：「巴不得我們早死在埃及地，或是死在這曠野。
All the Israelites grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and the whole assembly said to them, 「If only we had died in Egypt! Or in this wilderness!
3.耶和華為甚麼把我們領到那地，使我們倒在刀下呢？我們的妻子和孩子必被擄掠。我們回埃及去豈不好嗎？」
Why is the LORD bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?」
4.眾人彼此說：「我們不如立一個首領回埃及去吧！」
And they said to each other, 「We should choose a leader and go back to Egypt.」
5.摩西、亞倫就俯伏在以色列全會眾面前。
Then Moses and Aaron fell facedown in front of the whole Israelite assembly gathered there.
6.窺探地的人中，嫩的兒子約書亞和耶孚尼的兒子迦勒撕裂衣服，
Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had explored the land, tore their clothes
7.對以色列全會眾說：「我們所窺探、經過之地是極美之地。
and said to the entire Israelite assembly, 「The land we passed through and explored is exceedingly good.
8.耶和華若喜悅我們，就必將我們領進那地，把地賜給我們；那地原是流奶與蜜之地。
If the LORD is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and will give it to us.
9.但你們不可背叛耶和華，也不要怕那地的居民；因為他們是我們的食物，並且蔭庇他們的已經離開他們。有耶和華語我們同在，不要怕他們！」
Only do not rebel against the LORD. And do not be afraid of the people of the land, because we will devour them. Their protection is gone, be the LORD is with us. Do not be afraid of them.」
10.但全會眾說：「拿石頭打死他們二人。」忽然，耶和華的榮光在會幕中向以色列眾人顯現。
But the whole assembly talked about stoning them. Then the glory of the LORD appeared at the tent of meeting to all the Israelites.
