Brojevi 20
1 Potom stigoše Izraelci, sva zajednica, u pustinju Sin u prvome mjesecu. Narod se nastani u Kadešu. Ondje umrije Mirjam i ondje je sahraniše.
The children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month. The people stayed in Kadesh. Miriam died there, and was buried there.
2 Nije bilo vode za zajednicu. Stoga se udruže protiv Mojsija i protiv Arona.
There was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3 Narod se poče svađati s Mojsijem i govoriti: “Da smo bar izginuli kad su nam i braća poginula pred Jahvom!
The people quarreled with Moses, and spoke, saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD!
4 Zašto ste doveli Jahvinu zajednicu u ovu pustinju da ovdje pomremo i mi i naša stoka?
Why have you brought the LORD’s assembly into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
5 Zašto ste nas izveli iz Egipta da nas dovedete u ovo nesretno mjesto; mjesto u kojem nema ni žita, ni smokava, ni loze, ni mogranja? Nema ni vode da pijemo.”
Why have you made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in to 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 Mojsije i Aron odu ispred zajednice do ulaza u Šator sastanka i padnu ničice. Tada im se pokaza slava Jahvina.
Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces. The LORD’s glory appeared to them.
7 I Jahve reče Mojsiju:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
8 “Uzmi štap pa ti i tvoj brat Aron skupite zajednicu. Onda, na njihove oči, progovorite pećini da ustupi svoje vode. Iz pećine im izvedi vodu te napoj zajednicu i njezino blago.”
“Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it pour out its water. You shall bring water to them out of the rock; so you shall give the congregation and their livestock drink.”
9 Mojsije uzme štap ispred Jahve kako mu je naredio.
Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
10 Zatim Mojsije i Aron skupe zbor pred pećinu pa im Mojsije rekne: “Čujte, buntovnici! Hoćemo li vam iz ove pećine izvesti vodu?”
Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels! Shall we bring water out of this rock for you?”
11 Zatim Mojsije podigne ruku i dvaput udari štapom o pećinu: voda provali u obilju, pa su mogli piti i zajednica i njezino blago.
Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice, and water came out abundantly. The congregation and their livestock drank.
12 Potom će Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu: “Budući da se niste pouzdavali u me i niste me svetim očitovali u očima sinova Izraelovih, nećete uvesti ovaj zbor u zemlju koju im dajem.”
The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you didn’t believe in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”
13 To su Meripske vode, kraj njih su se Izraelci prepirali s Jahvom, a on se pokazao svetim.
These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
14 Iz Kadeša pošalje Mojsije glasnike: “Kralju Edoma. Ovako veli tvoj brat Izrael: 'Ti znaš sve jade koji su nas snašli.
Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, saying: “Your brother Israel says: You know all the travail that has happened to us;
15 Naši se preci spustiše u Egipat. U Egiptu smo proboravili mnogo vremena. Egipćani su s nama i s našim precima loše postupali.
how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time. The Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers.
16 Stoga smo vapili Jahvi, i on ču naš glas i posla anđela koji nas izbavi iz Egipta. Evo nas sad u Kadešu, gradu uz rub tvoga područja.
When we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice, sent an angel, and brought us out of Egypt. Behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the edge of your border.
17 Pusti nas da prođemo kroz tvoju zemlju. Nećemo ići preko polja ni vinograda niti ćemo piti vodu iz bunara; ići ćemo Kraljevskim putem, ne skrećući ni desno ni lijevo, dok ne prođemo tvoje područje.”
“Please let us pass through your land. We will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink from the water of the wells. We will go along the king’s highway. We will not turn away to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border.”
18 Edom mu odgovori: “Ne prolazi preko moje zemlje, jer eto me s mačem preda te!”
Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
19 “Ići ćemo utrenikom”, rekoše Izraelci, “a budemo li pili tvoje vode, mi i naša stada, za to ćemo ti platiti. Ništa više, samo da prođemo pješice.”
The children of Israel said to him, “We will go up by the highway; and if we drink your water, I and my livestock, then I will give its price. Only let me, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet.”
20 “Ne prolazi!” - odgovori. I Edom mu izađe u susret s mnogo ljudi i s velikom silom.
He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
21 Tako Edom nije dopustio Izraelu da prođe kroz njegovo područje i Izrael se okrenu od njega.
Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
22 Zaputivši se od Kadeša, stigoše Izraelci, sva zajednica, k brdu Horu.
They traveled from Kadesh, and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
23 Kod brda Hora, uz među edomsku, reče Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu:
The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
24 “Neka se Aron pridruži svojim precima! Neće ući u zemlju koju dajem Izraelcima, jer ste se oprli mojoj zapovijedi kod Meripskih voda.
“Aaron shall be gathered to his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
25 Uzmi Arona i njegova sina Eleazara, pa ih izvedi na brdo Hor.
Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
26 I svuci Aronu njegove haljine pa ih obuci njegovu sinu Eleazaru. Aron će se pridružiti precima, umrijet će ondje.”
and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron shall be gathered, and shall die there.”
27 Mojsije učini kako naredi Jahve. Pred svom zajednicom popeše se na brdo Hor.
Moses did as the LORD commanded. They went up onto Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 Mojsije svuče s Arona njegove haljine te ih obuče njegovu sinu Eleazaru. Ondje navrh brda umrije Aron. Zatim se Mojsije i Eleazar spustiše s brda.
Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron died there on the top of the mountain, and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
29 Sva zajednica vidje da je Aron preminuo i sav dom Izraelov oplakivaše Arona trideset dana.
When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
