Lampahnah 20
1 Israel ca rhoek te hla lamhmacuek ah tah rhaengpuei boeih loh Zin khosoek la pawk uh. Pilnam te Kadesh ah kho a sak vaengah Miriam duek tih pahoi a up uh.
And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
2 Tedae rhaengpuei ham tui om pawt tih Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah tingtun uh.
And there was no water for the congregation: and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3 Te dongah pilnam loh Moses te a ho tih a voek uh hatah, “BOEIPA mikhmuh ah mamih manuca a pal vaengah m'pal uh palueng mako.
And the people strove with Moses, and spake, saying, Would that we had died when our brethren died before Jehovah!
4 Bang ham nim BOEIPA kah hlangping he, kaimih neh ka rhamsa khaw pahoi duek sak ham he nim khosoek la nang khuen?
And why have ye brought the assembly of Jehovah into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our beasts?
5 He hmuen thae la kaimih khuen ham te Egypt lamloh kaimih nan caeh puei he bang ham nim? Cangti, thaibu, misur neh tale hmuen khaw tal tih ok ham tui khaw om pawh,” a ti uh.
And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink.
6 Te dongah Moses neh Aaron tah hlangping mikhmuh lamloh tingtunnah dap thohka la cet rhoi tih a maelhmai neh a bakop rhoi vaengah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah amih rhoi taengah a phoe pah.
And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tent of meeting, and fell upon their faces: and the glory of Jehovah appeared unto them.
7 Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
8 “Conghol te pom lamtah namah neh na manuca Aaron khaw rhaengpuei khui ah tingtun van. Amih mikhmuh ah thaelpang te voek lamtah a tui m'paek bitni. Te vaengah thaelpang lamkah tui te amih ham khuen lamtah rhaengpuei neh a rhamsa te tul,” a ti nah.
Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes, that it give forth its water; and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock; so thou shalt give the congregation and their cattle drink.
9 Te dongah amah a uen van bangla Moses loh BOEIPA mikhmuh lamkah conghol te a loh.
And Moses took the rod from before Jehovah, as he commanded him.
10 Te phoeiah Moses neh Aaron tah thaelpang hmai ah hlangping neh tingtun uh tih amih te, “Hlang koek rhoek hatun uh laeh, he thaelpang lamkah nim nangmih ham tui kam paek ve?” a ti nah.
And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; shall we bring you forth water out of this rock?
11 Moses loh a kut a thueng tih thaelpang te a conghol neh hnavoei a boh. Te vaengah tui muep phuet tih rhaengpuei neh a rhamsa loh a ok.
And Moses lifted up his hand, and smote the rock with his rod twice: and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their cattle.
12 Tedae BOEIPA loh Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah, “Kai he Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh ah kai he a ciim la nan tangnah rhoi moenih. Te dongah hlangping he a taengah ka paek khohmuen la na pawk uh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
And Jehovah said unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed not in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.
13 He Israel ca rhoek loh BOEIPA a ho nah Meribah tui ni. Tedae amih taengah amah ciim uh coeng.
These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with Jehovah, and he was sanctified in them.
14 Kadesh lamlong tah Moses loh Edom manghai taengla puencawn a tueih tih, “Na manuca Israel he na ming, bongboepnah cungkuem loh kaimih m'mah coeng.
And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
15 A pa rhoek he Egypt la suntla uh tih kum te yet Egypt ah kho ka sak uh. Tedae Egypt loh kaimih taeng neh a pa rhoek taengah khaw thae a huet uh.
how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and our fathers:
16 Tedae BOEIPA taengla ka pang uh dongah kaimih ol a yaak tih puencawn han tueih. Te phoeiah kaimih he Egypt lamloh n'khuen tih na khorhi bawt kah khopuei Kadesh ah ka om uh coeng he.
and when we cried unto Jehovah, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border.
17 Na khohmuen lamlong he ka kat uh mai eh. Lohma long neh misurdum long khaw ka kat uh mahpawh, tuito tui khaw ka o uh mahpawh, manghai longpuei ah ni ka caeh uh eh, na khorhi ka poeng hil banvoei bantang ka phael uh mahpawh” a ti nah.
Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy land: we will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink of the water of the wells; we will go along the king’s highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy border.
18 Tedae Edom loh anih te, “Kai longah kat boeh, nang doe hamla cunghang kang khuen ve,” a ti nah.
And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against thee.
19 Te vaengah Israel ca rhoek loh, “Longpuei ah ka cet uh mai eh. Na tui te kamah neh ka boiva long khaw ka ok atah a phu kam van paek bitni. Olka om mahpawh ka kho dongah ka kat uh mai eh,” a ti nah.
And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go up by the highway; and if we drink of thy water, I and my cattle, then will I give the price thereof: let me only, without [doing] anything [else], pass through on my feet.
20 “Cet uh boeh,” a ti neh Edom te anih doe ham pilnam hlangping neh, tlungluen kut neh pawk.
And he said, Thou shalt not pass through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
21 Israel paek ham neh a khorhi long kat ham Edom loh a aal van neh Israel khaw a taeng lamloh hoi uh.
Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.
22 Kadesh lamloh a caeh uh phoeiah Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih Hor tlang la pawk uh.
And they journeyed from Kadesh: and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came unto mount Hor.
23 Edom khohmuen rhi kah Hor tlang ah BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te a voek tih,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
24 “Aaron te a pilnam taengla khoem uh saeh. Meribah tui ah ka ol te nan koek uh dongah Israel ca rhoek taengah ka paek khohmuen la kun boel saeh.
Aaron shall be gathered unto his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
25 Aaron neh a capa Eleazar te khuen lamtah Hor tlang cet.
Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor;
26 Aaron kah a himbai te pit pah lamtah a capa Eleazar te bai sak. Aaron tah duek vetih pahoi khoem uh pawn ni,” a ti nah.
and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered [unto his people], and shall die there.
27 BOEIPA kah a uen bangla Moses loh a ngai tih rhaengpuei boeih kah mikhmuh ah Hor tlang la cet uh.
And Moses did as Jehovah commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 Te phoeiah Moses loh Aaron kah a himbai te a pit pah tih a capa Eleazar te a bai sak. Te vaengah Aaron tah tlang lu ah pahoi duek coeng tih Moses neh Eleazar bueng te tlang lamloh suntla rhoi.
And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.
29 Rhaengpuei boeih loh Aaron a pal te a hmuh uh vaengah tah Aaron te Israel imkhui pum loh Khohnin sawmthum a rhah uh.
And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
