< 4 Mosebog 20 >
1 Og Israels Børn, den ganske Menighed, kom i den Ørk Zin, i den første Maaned, og Folket blev i Kades; og Maria døde der og blev begraven der.
The children of Israel [God prevails], even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month Nissan ·Miracles (in Aramaic), 1·. The people stayed in Kadesh. Miriam [Rebellion] died there, and was buried there.
2 Og Menigheden havde intet Vand; da forsamledes de mod Mose og mod Aron.
There was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses [Drawn out] and against Aaron [Light-bringer].
3 Og Folket kivedes med Mose, og de sagde: Gid vi dog havde opgivet Aanden, dengang vore Brødre opgave Aanden for Herrens Ansigt.
The people quarreled with Moses [Drawn out], and spoke, saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before Adonai!
4 Og hvorfor førte I Herrens Menighed ind i denne Ørk, at vi skulle dø der, vi og vore Dyr?
Why have you brought Adonai’s assembly into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
5 Og hvorfor førte I os op af Ægypten for at bringe os til dette slemme Sted, som ikke er et Sted til Sæd og Figen og Vin og Granatæble, og hvor der ikke er Vand at drikke?
Why have you made us to come up out of Egypt [Abode of slavery], 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 Og Mose og Aron kom fra Menighedens Ansigt til Forsamlingens Pauluns Dør og faldt ned paa deres Ansigter; og Herrens Herlighed viste sig for dem.
Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces. The kavod Yahweh ·weighty glory of He sustains breathing· appeared to them.
7 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
8 Tag Staven, og saml Menigheden, du og Aron, din Broder, og I skulle tale til Klippen for deres Øjne, saa skal den give Vand af sig; og du skal lade Vand af Klippen komme ud til dem og give Menigheden og deres Dyr at drikke.
“Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aaron [Light-bringer] 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 Da tog Mose Staven bort fra Herrens Ansigt, som han havde befalet ham.
Moses [Drawn out] took the rod from before Adonai, as he enjoined him.
10 Og Mose og Aron samlede Menigheden lige for Klippen; og han sagde til dem: Hører dog, I genstridige! monne vi kunne lade Vand komme ud til eder af denne Klippe?
Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, “Sh'ma ·Hear obey· now, you rebels! Shall we bring water out of this rock for you?”
11 Og Mose opløftede sin Haand og slog Klippen med sin Stav to Gange; da udgik meget Vand, saa at Menigheden drak og deres Dyr.
Moses [Drawn out] lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice, and water came out abundantly. The congregation and their livestock drank.
12 Og Herren sagde til Mose og til Aron: Fordi I ikke troede paa mig, til at helliggøre mig for Israels Børns Øjne, derfor skulle I ikke føre denne Menighed ind i det Land, som jeg har givet dem.
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer], “Because you didn’t trust in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel [God prevails], therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”
13 Dette er Kivevandet, hvor Israels Børn kivedes med Herren; og han helliggjorde sig paa dem.
These are the waters of Meribah [Quarreling]; because the children of Israel [God prevails] strove with Yahweh M’Kaddesh [Yahweh our Santifier / He sustains breathing who makes you holy] who was set apart by them.
14 Og Mose sendte Bud fra Kades til Edoms Konge, saalunde: Saa siger din Broder Israel: Du ved al den Møje, som os er vederfaren,
Moses [Drawn out] sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom [Red], saying: “Thus says your brother Israel [God prevails]: You know all the travail that has happened to us;
15 at vore Fædre droge ned til Ægypten, og vi boede lang Tid i Ægypten, og Ægypterne handlede ilde med os og med vore Fædre.
how our fathers went down into Egypt [Abode of slavery], and we lived in Egypt [Abode of slavery] a long time. The Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] mistreated us and our fathers.
16 Og vi raabte til Herren, og han hørte vor Røst og sendte en Engel og udførte os af Ægypten, og se, vi ere i Kades, Staden ved det yderste af dit Landemærke.
When we cried to Adonai, he sh'ma ·heard obeyed· our voice, sent an angel, and brought us out of Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the edge of your border.
17 Kære, lad os gaa igennem dit Land, vi ville hverken gaa igennem Ager eller Vingaard og ej drikke Vand af nogen Brønd, vi ville gaa ad Kongevejen, vi ville hverken bøje til den højre eller til den venstre Side, indtil vi ere komne igennem dit Landemærke.
“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 aside to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border.”
18 Og Edom sagde til ham: Du maa ikke gaa igennem mit Land, at jeg ikke skal drage ud mod dig med Sværd.
Edom [Red] said to him, “You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
19 Og Israels Børn sagde til ham: Vi ville gaa op ad den alfare Vej, og dersom vi drikke af Vandet hos dig, jeg og mit Kvæg, da vil jeg give Betaling derfor; jeg vil slet intet gøre uden at gaa igennem til Fods.
The children of Israel [God prevails] 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 Men han sagde: Du maa ikke gaa igennem; og Edom drog ud imod ham med et svart Folk og en stærk Haand.
He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom [Red] came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
21 Saa vægrede Edom sig ved at tillade Israel at gaa igennem sit Landemærke; og Israel bøjede af Vejen for ham.
Thus Edom [Red] refused to give Israel [God prevails] passage through his border, so Israel [God prevails] turned away from him.
22 Og de rejste fra Kades; og Israels Børn, al Menigheden kom til det Bjerg Hor.
They traveled from Kadesh: and the children of Israel [God prevails], even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
23 Og Herren talede til Mose og til Aron ved det Bjerg Hor, ved Edoms Landemærke, og sagde:
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom [Red], saying,
24 Aron skal samles til sit Folk, thi han skal ikke komme ind i det Land, som jeg har givet Israels Børn, fordi I vare genstridige mod min Mund ved Meribas Vand.
“Aaron [Light-bringer] shall be gathered to his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel [God prevails], because you rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah [Quarreling].
25 Tag Aron og Eleasar, hans Søn, Og før dem op paa det Bjerg Hor.
Take Aaron [Light-bringer] and Eleazar [Help of God] his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
26 Og før Aron af sine Klæder, og før Eleasar, hans Søn, i dem; og Aron skal samles til sit Folk og dø der.
and strip Aaron [Light-bringer] of his garments, and put them on Eleazar [Help of God] his son. Aaron [Light-bringer] shall be taken, and shall die there.”
27 Da gjorde Mose, som Herren havde befalet; og de gik op paa det Bjerg Hor for den ganske Menigheds Øjne.
Moses [Drawn out] did as Adonai enjoined. They went up into Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 Og Mose førte Aron af sine Klæder og førte Eleasar, hans Søn, i dem; saa døde Aron der oven paa Bjerget; men Mose og Eleasar gik ned ad Bjerget.
Moses [Drawn out] stripped Aaron [Light-bringer] of his garments, and put them on Eleazar [Help of God] his son. Aaron [Light-bringer] died there on the top of the mountain, and Moses [Drawn out] and Eleazar [Help of God] came down from the mountain.
29 Og der al Menigheden saa, at Aron havde opgivet Aanden, da begræd de Aron i tredive Dage, hele Israels Hus.
When all the congregation saw that Aaron [Light-bringer] was dead, they wept for Aaron [Light-bringer] thirty days, even all the house of Israel [God prevails].
