Kwan 20

1 E dwe mokwongo oganda jo-Israel duto nochopo e Thim mar Zin, kendo negidak Kadesh. Kanyo ema Miriam nothoe moike.

And the sons of Israel come in, — all the company — to the wilderness of Zin, in the first month, and the people abide in Kadesh, and Miriam dieth there, and is buried there.

2 Koro ne onge pi mane ogandani nyalo modho, kendo ji nochokore mondo okwed Musa gi Harun.

And there hath been no water for the company, and they are assembled against Moses, and against Aaron,

3 Negidhawo gi Musa kagiwacho niya, “Mad ne bed ni watho e kinde mane owetewa otho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye!

and the people strive with Moses, and speak, saying, 'And oh that we had expired when our brethren expired before Jehovah!

4 Angʼo momiyo ikelo oganda Jehova Nyasaye e thimni, mondo mi wan kod jambwa watho kaye?

and why have ye brought in the assembly of Jehovah unto this wilderness to die there, we and our beasts?

5 Angʼo momiyo ne igolowa Misri mondo ikelwa e piny malichni? Pinyni onge gi cham kata ngʼowu, mzabibu kata olembe mongʼinore to bende onge kata mana pi modho!”

and why hast thou brought us up out of Egypt to bring us in unto this evil place? no place of seed, and fig, and vine, and pomegranate; and water there is none to drink.

6 Musa kod Harun nowuok koa e chokruok kochiko dhoranga Hemb Romo mi gipodho auma, kendo duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyorenegi.

And Moses and Aaron go in from the presence of the assembly unto the opening of the tent of meeting, and fall on their faces, and the honour of Jehovah is seen by them.

7 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

8 “Kaw odunga, kod owadu Harun mondo uchok jo-Israel kaachiel. Wuo kod lwanda ka gineno kendo pi biro chwer koa kuome. Ibiro golo pi kowuok e lwandano ne oganda mondo gin kod jambgi gimodhi.”

'Take the rod, and assemble the company, thou and Aaron thy brother; and ye have spoken unto the rock before their eyes, and it hath given its water, and thou hast brought out to them water from the rock, and hast watered the company, and their beasts.'

9 Omiyo Musa nokawo odunga e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka ne ochike.

And Moses taketh the rod from before Jehovah, as He hath commanded him,

10 En kod Harun nochoko chokruok kanyakla e nyim lwanda kendo Musa nowachonegi niya, “Winjuru, un jongʼanyogi, bende ochuno ni nyaka wamiu pi kowuok e lwandani?”

and Moses and Aaron assemble the assembly unto the front of the rock, and he saith to them, 'Hear, I pray you, O rebels, from this rock do we bring out to you water?'

11 Eka Musa norieyo bade malo mi ochwado lwandano nyadiriyo gi odunga mare. Pi nobubni oko, kendo ogandago gi jambgi nomodho.

and Moses lifteth up his hand, and smiteth the rock with his rod twice; and much water cometh out, and the company drink, also their beasts.

12 To Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa kod Harun niya, “Nikech ne ok uketo genou kuoma chuth mondo umiya duongʼ kaka ngʼama ler e nyim jo-Israel, ok unuter ogandani e piny ma amiyogi.”

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, and unto Aaron, 'Because ye have not believed in Me to sanctify Me before the eyes of the sons of Israel, therefore ye do not bring in this assembly unto the land which I have given to them.'

13 Magi ne gin pige mag Meriba, kama jo-Israel nongʼurie gi Jehova Nyasaye kendo mano e kama nonyisore owuon kaka ngʼama ler e kindgi.

These [are] waters of Meribah, because the sons of Israel have 'striven' with Jehovah, and He is sanctified upon them.

14 Musa nooro joote moa Kadesh ir ruodh Edom, kowacho kama: “Ma e gima owadu Israel wacho: Ingʼeyo tije matek duto ma wasebedo godo.

And Moses sendeth messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, 'Thus said thy brother Israel, Thou — thou hast known all the travail which hath found us;

15 Kwerewa nodhi Misri, kendo negidak kuno kuom higni mathoth. Jo-Misri nosandowa kod wuonewa,

that our fathers go down to Egypt, and we dwell in Egypt many days, and the Egyptians do evil to us and to our fathers;

16 to kane waywakne Jehova Nyasaye, nowinjo ywakwa kendo nooro malaika mi ogolowa waa Misri. “Koro wan Kadesh ka, ma en dala mantiere but piny ma irito.

and we cry unto Jehovah, and He heareth our voice, and sendeth a messenger, and is bringing us out of Egypt; and lo, we [are] in Kadesh, a city [in] the extremity of thy border.

17 Yienwa wakal e pinyi. Ok wananyon puodho moro amora kata puoth mzabibu, kata modho pi moa e soko moro amora. Wabiro mana luwo yor ruoth tir kendo ok wanagom yo korachwich kata koracham nyaka wakal pinyi duto.”

Let us pass over, we pray thee, through thy land; we pass not over through a field, or through a vineyard, nor do we drink waters of a well; the way of the king we go, we turn not aside — right or left — till that we pass over thy border.'

18 To Edom nodwoko niya, “Ok unyal luwo ka; ka utemo, to wabiro wuok riat kendo wamonju gi ligangla.”

And Edom saith unto him, 'Thou dost not pass over through me, lest with sword I come out to meet thee.'

19 Jo-Israel nodwoko niya, “Wabiro luwo yo maduongʼ tir, kendo ka wan kata jambwa omodho piu mora amora, to wabiro chulo. Wadwaro mana kalo kanyo ka wawuotho gi tiendwa; maonge gimoro amora machielo mwadwaro timo.”

And the sons of Israel say unto him, 'In the highway we go, and if of thy waters we drink — I and my cattle — then I have given their price; only (it is nothing) on my feet I pass over.'

20 Negidwoko kendo niya, “Ok unyal luwo kae.” Eka Edom nochodo mar kedo kodgi gi jolweny mangʼeny kendo mager.

And he saith, 'Thou dost not pass over;' and Edom cometh out to meet him with much people, and with a strong hand;

21 Nikech Edom notamore ni ok gikal e pinye, Israel nowere kodgi.

and Edom refuseth to suffer Israel to pass over through his border, and Israel turneth aside from off him.

22 Oganda duto mar Israel nowuok Kadesh mi gibiro Got Hor.

And the sons of Israel, the whole company, journey from Kadesh, and come in unto mount Hor,

23 E Got Hor machiegni gi tongʼ mar Edom, Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa gi Harun niya,

and Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron in mount Hor, on the border of the land of Edom, saying,

24 “Harun nochokre gi joge. Ok enodonji e piny mamiyo jo-Israel, nikech un ji ariyogi nungʼanyo ne chikena e pige mag Meriba.

'Aaron is gathered unto his people, for he doth not go in unto the land which I have given to the sons of Israel, because that ye provoked My mouth at the waters of Meribah.

25 Kaw Harun kod wuode Eliazar mondo itergi e Got Hor.

'Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and cause them to go up mount Hor,

26 Lony lep Harun kendo irwakne wuode ma Eliazar, nimar Harun biro riwore gi jogi; mi otho kanyo.”

and strip Aaron of his garments, and thou hast clothed [with] them Eleazar his son, and Aaron is gathered, and doth die there.'

27 Musa notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone: Negidhi e Got Hor ka oganda duto neno.

And Moses doth as Jehovah hath commanded, and they go up unto mount Hor before the eyes of all the company,

28 Musa nogolo lep Harun mi orwako ne wuode ma Eliazar. Kendo Harun notho ewi godno. Eka Musa kod Eliazar nolor oa ewi got,

and Moses strippeth Aaron of his garments, and clotheth with them Eleazar his son, and Aaron dieth there on the top of the mount; and Moses cometh down — Eleazar also — from the mount,

29 kendo ka oganda duto nowinjo ni Harun osetho, to jo-Israel noywage kuom ndalo piero adek.

and all the company see that Aaron hath expired, and they bewail Aaron thirty days — all the house of Israel.
