民數記 20
1 以色列子民全會眾於正月來到了親曠野，人民就在卡德士住下了。米黎盎在那裏死了，也就埋在那裏。
And they came [the] people of Israel all the congregation [the] wilderness of Zin in the month first and it remained the people in Kadesh and she died there Miriam and she was buried there.
2 會眾沒有人水喝，就聚在一起反抗梅瑟和亞郎。
And not it belonged water to the congregation and they assembled on Moses and on Aaron.
3 民眾同梅瑟爭辯說：「巴不得我們的兄弟也上主面前死去時，我們也死了!
And it quarreled the people with Moses and they said saying and if we had died when died brothers our before Yahweh.
4 為什麼你們領上主的會眾來到這曠野裏，叫我們和我們的牲畜都死在這裏﹖
And why? have you brought [the] assembly of Yahweh into the wilderness this to die there we and livestock our.
5 為什麼你們使我們由埃及上來，領我們來到這樣壞的地方﹖這地方不但沒有糧食，沒有無花果，沒有葡萄，沒有石榴，而且連喝的水也沒有! 」
And why? have you brought up us from Egypt to bring us to the place the evil this not - a place of seed and fig tree and vine and pomegranate and [is] water there not to drink.
6 梅瑟和亞郎遂離開會眾，來到會幕門口，俯伏在地；上主的榮耀遂發現給他們。
And he went Moses and Aaron from before the assembly to [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting and they fell on faces their and it appeared [the] glory of Yahweh to them.
7 上主吩咐梅瑟說：
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
8 「你拿上棍杖，然後你和你的兄弟亞郎召集會眾，當著他們眼前對這磐石發命，叫磐石流水。這樣你便可使水由磐石中給他們流出，給會眾和他們的牲畜喝」。
Take the rod and assemble the congregation you and Aaron brother your and you will speak to the rock to eyes their and it will give water its and you will bring out for them water from the rock and you will give drink to the congregation and livestock their.
9 梅瑟就照上主吩咐他的，由上主面前拿了棍杖。
And he took Moses the rod from to before Yahweh just as he had commanded him.
10 梅瑟和亞郎召集會眾來到磐石前，對他們說：「你們這些叛徒，聽著! 我們豈能從這磐石中給你們引出水來﹖」
And they made assemble Moses and Aaron the assembly to [the] face of the rock and he said to them listen please O rebels ¿ from the rock this will we bring out for you water.
11 梅瑟遂舉起手來，用棍杖打了磐石兩次，才有大量的水湧出，會眾和他們的生畜都喝夠了。
And he raised Moses hand his and he struck the rock with rod his two times and they came out waters many and it drank the congregation and livestock their.
12 上主卻對梅瑟和亞郎說：「因為你們沒有相信我，使我以色列子民眼前被尊為聖，所以你們不得領這會眾進入我賜給他們的土地」。
And he said Yahweh to Moses and to Aaron because not you believed me to treat as holy me to [the] eyes of [the] people of Israel therefore not you will bring the assembly this into the land which I have given to them.
13 這就是默黎巴水的來歷，因為以色列子民在那裏與上主爭辯過，上主因而顯示了自己的聖德。
They [were] [the] waters of Meribah where they quarreled [the] people of Israel with Yahweh and he showed himself holy among them.
14 梅瑟由卡德士派遺使者去見厄東王說：「你的兄弟以色列這樣說：你知道我們所遭遇的一切困難，
And he sent Moses messengers from Kadesh to [the] king of Edom thus he says brother your Israel you you know all the hardship which it has come upon us.
15 我們的祖先下到了埃及。我們在埃及住了很久，埃及人虐待了我們和我們的祖先。
And they went down ancestors our Egypt towards and we dwelt in Egypt days many and they did harm to us Egypt and to ancestors our.
16 我們曾向上主呼號，衪俯聽了我們的呼聲，派來了一位使者，領我們出離了埃及。看，我們現在就在你邊境上的卡德士城，
And we cried out to Yahweh and he heard voice our and he sent an angel and he brought out us from Egypt and here! we [are] in Kadesh city of [the] outskirt[s] of territory your.
17 求你讓我們由你的境內經過；我們決不會踏過莊田或葡萄園，菩提不喝井裏的水，只走王道，不偏右，也不偏左；直至走過你的國境」。
Let us pass please in land your not we will pass in a field and in a vineyard and not we will drink water of a well [the] way of the king we will go not we will turn aside right and left until that we will pass through territory your.
18 厄東卻答覆說：「不准你們由我們這裏經過，不然我要以刀相迎」。
And it said to him Edom not you will pass in me lest with the sword I should come out to meet you.
19 以色列子民再向他說：「我們只沿大路走，我們和我們的牲畜若喝了你的水，我們願付錢；只求經過這點小事」。
And they said to him [the] people of Israel on the highway we will go up and if waters your we will drink I and livestock my and I will give price their only there not [is] a thing on feet my let me pass through.
20 他仍然說：「不准你經過」。厄東即領大隊人馬和武裝步隊出迎。
And it said not you will pass through and it came out Edom to meet him with a people massive and with a hand strong.
21 厄東既然不讓以色列由他境內經過，以色列就從那裏折回。
And it refused - Edom to permit Israel to pass in territory its and it turned aside Israel from on it.
22 以色列子民全會眾由卡德士起程，來到了曷爾山。
And they set out from Kadesh and they came [the] people of Israel all the congregation Hor the mountain.
23 在厄東國界的了曷爾山上，上主對梅瑟和亞郎說：
And he said Yahweh to Moses and to Aaron at Hor the mountain on [the] border of [the] land of Edom saying.
24 「亞郎要歸到他祖先那裏去，他不能進入我賜給以色列子民的地方，因為你們在默黎巴取水的事上，違背了我的訓令。
He will be gathered Aaron to people his for not he will go into the land which I have given to [the] people of Israel on that you rebelled against mouth my to [the] waters of Meribah.
25 你帶亞郎和他的兒子厄肋阿匝爾，一同上曷爾山上去，
Take Aaron and Eleazar son his and bring up them Hor the mountain.
26 將亞郎的長袍脫下，給他的兒子厄肋阿匝爾穿上，因為亞郎要被召回歸去，死在那裏」。
And strip off Aaron garments his and you will clothe with them Eleazar son his and Aaron he will be gathered and he will die there.
27 梅瑟就照上主吩咐的做了。當著全會眾的面，他們上了曷爾山。
And he did Moses just as he had commanded Yahweh and they went up to Hor the mountain to [the] eyes of all the congregation.
28 梅瑟把亞郎的長袍脫下，給他的兒子厄肋阿匝爾穿上，亞郎就在山頂死了。以後梅瑟和厄肋阿匝爾由山上下來。
And he stripped off Moses Aaron garments his and he clothed with them Eleazar son his and he died Aaron there at [the] top of the mountain and he went down Moses and Eleazar from the mountain.
29 全會眾知道亞郎死了，以色列全家為亞郎舉哀三十天。
And they saw all the congregation that he had died Aaron and they wept for Aaron thirty day[s] all [the] house of Israel.
