< Numbers 20 >

1 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.
Na ka tae nga tama a Iharaira, ara te whakaminenga katoa, ki te koraha o Hini i te marama tuatahi: a ka noho te iwi ki Karehe; na ka mate a Miriama ki reira, a tanumia ana ki reira.
2 There was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
A kahore he wai mo te whakaminenga: a ka huihui ki te ngangare ki a Mohi raua ko Arona.
3 The people quarreled with Moses, and spoke, saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD!
Na ka ngangau te iwi ki a Mohi, ka korero, ka mea, Aue, me i mate matou i te matenga o o matou tuakana i te aroaro o Ihowa!
4 Why have you brought the LORD’s assembly into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
He aha hoki i kawea mai ai e korua te whakaminenga a Ihowa ki tenei koraha, kia mate tahi matou me a matou kararehe ki konei?
5 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.”
He aha hoki matou i meinga ai e korua kia haere mai i Ihipa, kia kawea mai matou ki tenei wahi kino? ehara nei i te wahi purapura, i te wahi piki, waina, pamekaranete; kahore ano hoki he wai hei inu.
6 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.
Na ka haere a Mohi raua ko Arona i te aroaro o te whakaminenga ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, a ka kupapa iho o raua mata: na ko te putanga mai o te kororia o Ihowa ki a raua.
7 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
A ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea,
8 “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.”
Maua atu te tokotoko, huihuia mai ano te whakaminenga e korua ko tou tuakana, ko Arona, ka korero ai korua ki te kamaka i mua i o ratou kanohi, kia tukua mai tona wai; a ka whakaputaina mai e koe he wai mo ratou i roto i te kamaka: a ka meinga e koe te whakaminenga me a ratou kararehe kia inu.
9 Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
Na ka maua e Mohi te tokotoko i te aroaro o Ihowa, pera ana ia me tana i whakahau ai.
10 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?”
I huihuia hoki te whakaminenga e Mohi raua ko Arona ki mua o te kamaka, a ka mea ia ki a ratou, Whakarongo mai, e te hunga tutu; me whakaputa mai ranei e maua he wai mo koutou i roto i tenei kamaka?
11 Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice, and water came out abundantly. The congregation and their livestock drank.
Na ka ara te ringa o Mohi, a e rua ana patunga i te kamaka ki tana tokotoko; ko te tino putanga mai o te wai, tona nui, a inu ana te iwi me a ratou kararehe.
12 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not 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.”
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, Kahore nei korua i whakapono ki ahau, kia whakatapu i ahau i te tirohanga a nga tama a Iharaira, mo reira e kore korua e kawe i tenei whakaminenga ki te whenua e hoatu nei e ahau ki a ratou.
13 These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
Ko te wai tena o Meripa; i ngangau hoki nga tama a Iharaira ki a Ihowa ki reira, a meinga ana ratou hei whakatapu mona.
14 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;
Na ka unga tangata a Mohi i Karehe ki te kingi o Eroma, Ko te kupu tenei a tou teina, a Iharaira, E mohio ana koe ki nga he katoa i pono mai ki a matou;
15 how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time. The Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers.
Ki te hekenga o o matou matua ki Ihipa, ki to matou nohoanga hoki i Ihipa, a maha noa nga ra; a ka tukino nga Ihipiana i a matou ko o matou matua:
16 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.
A, i ta matou karangatanga atu ki a Ihowa, na ka rongo ia ki to matou reo, a unga ana e ia he anahera hei whakaputa mai i a matou i Ihipa: na, kei Karehe tenei matou, kei te pa whakamutunga o tou rohe:
17 “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.”
Tena, tukua atu matou ma tou whenua: e kore matou e haere na nga mara, na nga mara waina ranei, e kore ano matou e inu i te wai o nga puna: ka haere matou i te huanui o te kingi, e kore matou e peka ki matau, ki maui, kia pahemo ra ano i a matou ou rohe.
18 Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
Na ka mea a Eroma ki a ia, E kore koe e tika na toku wahi, kei haere ahau me te hoari ki te tu i a koe.
19 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.”
Na ka mea nga tama a Iharaira ki a ia, Ka haere matou na te huanui: a ki te inu ahau me aku kahui i tou wai, me utu e ahau: heoi rawa taku e mea ai, ko te haere kau o oku waewae na kona.
20 He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
Na ka mea ia, E kore koe e haere ra konei. A ka puta a Eroma me te ope nui, me te ringa kaha, ki te tu i a ia.
21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
Heoi kihai a Eroma i pai ki te tuku i a Iharaira kia haere na tona rohe: na peka ke ana a Iharaira i a ia.
22 They traveled from Kadesh, and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
Na ka turia atu e ratou i Karehe: a ka tae nga tama a Iharaira, ara te whakaminenga katoa ki Maunga Horo.
23 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona i Maunga Horo, i te rohe o te whenua o Eroma, ka mea,
24 “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.
Ka kohia atu a Arona ki tona iwi; e kore hoki ia e tae ki te whenua ka hoatu nei e ahau ki nga tama a Iharaira, mo korua i whakatoi ki taku kupu i te wai o Meripa.
25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
Tangohia a Arona raua ko Ereatara, ko tana tama, kawea hoki raua ki runga ki Maunga Horo:
26 and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron shall be gathered, and shall die there.”
Unuhia hoki nga kakahu o Arona, ka whakakakahu ai ki tana tama, ki a Ereatara: a ka kohia atu a Arona ki tona iwi, ka mate hoki ki reira.
27 Moses did as the LORD commanded. They went up onto Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
Na ka pera a Mohi me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai, a haere ana ratou ki runga ki Maunga Horo i te tirohanga a te whakaminenga katoa.
28 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.
Na ka unuhia e Mohi nga kakahu o Arona, a whakakakahuria ana e ia ki tana tama, ki a Ereatara; a ka mate a Arona ki reira, ki te tihi o te maunga: a ka heke iho a Mohi raua ko Ereatara i runga i te maunga.
29 When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
A, no te kitenga o te whakaminenga katoa kua mate a Arona, e toru tekau nga ra i tangihia ai a Arona e ratou, e te whare katoa o Iharaira.
