Numbers 20

1 Then the children of Israel came with ye whole Congregation to the desert of Zin in the first moneth, and the people abode at Cadesh: where Miriam died, and was buried there.

Potem so prišli Izraelovi otroci, torej celotna skupnost, v puščavo Cin, v prvem mesecu, in ljudstvo je ostalo v Kadešu in Mirjam je tam umrla in bila tam pokopana.

2 But there was no water for the Congregation, and they assembled them selues against Moses and against Aaron.

Tam pa ni bilo nobene vode za skupnost in skupaj so se zbrali zoper Mojzesa in zoper Arona.

3 And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God we had perished, when our brethren died before the Lord.

Ljudje so se pričkali z Mojzesom in govorili, rekoč: »Da bi Bog dal, da bi umrli, ko so naši bratje umrli pred Gospodom!

4 Why haue ye thus brought the Congregation of the Lord vnto his wildernesse, that both we, and our cattell should die there?

In zakaj sta Gospodovo skupnost privedla gor v to divjino, da bi mi in naša živina v njej umrli?

5 Wherefore nowe haue yee made vs to come vp from Egypt, to bring vs into this miserable place, which is no place of seede, nor figges, nor vines, nor pomegranates? neither is there any water to drinke.

In zakaj sta nas pripravila, da pridemo gor iz Egipta, da nas privedeta na ta zlobni kraj? To ni kraj semen ali fig ali vinskih trt ali granatnih jabolk niti ni tukaj nobene vode za pitje.«

6 Then Moses and Aaron went from the assemblie vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and fell vpon their faces: and the glory of the Lord appeared vnto them.

Mojzes in Aron sta od prisotnosti zbora odšla k vratom šotorskega svetišča skupnosti ter padla na svoja obraza in prikazala se jima je Gospodova slava.

7 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:

8 Take the rod, and gather thou and thy brother Aaron the Congregation together, and speake yee vnto the rocke before their eyes, and it shall giue foorth his water, and thou shalt bring them water out of the rocke: so thou shalt giue the Congregation, and their beastes drinke.

»Vzemi palico in ti in tvoj brat Aron zberita skupaj skupnost in pred njihovimi očmi spregovorita skali in ta bo dala svojo vodo in ti jim boš prinesel vodo iz skale. Tako boš dal piti zboru in njihovim živalim.«

9 Then Moses tooke the rod from before the Lord, as he had commanded him.

Mojzes je vzel palico izpred Gospoda, kakor mu je zapovedal.

10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the Congregation together before the rocke, and Moses sayd vnto them, Heare nowe, ye rebels: shall we bring you water out of this rocke?

Mojzes in Aron sta pred skalo zbrala skupnost in jim rekla: »Poslušajte sedaj, vi uporniki, ali vam moreva iz te skale izpeljati vodo?«

11 Then Moses lift vp his hande, and with his rod he smote the rocke twise, and the water came out aboundantly: so the Congregation, and their beastes dranke.

Mojzes je dvignil svojo roko in s svojo palico dvakrat udaril skalo in voda se je obilno prikazala in skupnost je pila in tudi njihove živali.

12 Againe the Lord spake vnto Moses, and to Aaron, Because ye beleeued me not, to sanctifie mee in the presence of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this Congregation into the land which I haue giuen them.

Gospod pa je spregovoril Mojzesu in Aronu: »Ker mi nista verovala, da bi me izkazala svetega v očeh Izraelovih otrok, zato te skupnosti ne bosta privedla v deželo, ki sem jim jo dal.«

13 This is the water of Meribah, because the children of Israel stroue with the Lord, and hee was sanctified in them.

To je voda iz Meríbe; ker so se Izraelovi otroci prepirali z Gospodom in je bil on posvečen v njih.

14 Then Moses sent messengers from Kadesh vnto the king of Edom, saying, Thus sayth thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the trauaile that we haue had,

Mojzes je k edómskemu kralju poslal poslance iz Kadeša: »Tako govori tvoj brat Izrael: ›Ti poznaš vse muke, ki so nas doletele.

15 How our fathers went downe into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time, where the Egyptians handled vs euill and our fathers.

Kako so naši očetje odšli dol v Egipt in smo dolgo časa prebivali v Egiptu; Egipčani pa so dražili nas in naše očete.

16 But when we cried vnto the Lord, he heard our voyce, and sent an Angel, and hath brought vs out of Egypt, and beholde, wee are in the citie Kadesh, in thine vtmost border.

In ko smo klicali h Gospodu, je slišal naš glas in poslal angela in nas privedel iz egiptovske dežele. In glej, mi smo v Kadešu, v mestu na tvoji najbolj oddaljeni meji.

17 I pray thee that we may passe through thy countrey: we will not goe through the fieldes nor the vineyardes, neither will we drinke of the water of the welles: we will goe by the kings way, and neither turne vnto the right hand nor to the left, vntill we be past thy borders.

Naj prečkamo, prosim te, skozi tvojo deželo. Ne bomo šli skozi polja ali skozi vinograde niti ne bomo pili vode iz vodnjakov. Šli bomo po kraljevi visoki poti, ne bomo se obrnili k desni roki niti ne k levi, dokler ne prečkamo tvojih meja.‹«

18 And Edom answered him, Thou shalt not passe by mee, least I come out against thee with the sword.

Edóm pa mu je rekel: »Ne boš prečkal poleg mene, da ne bi jaz z mečem prišel zoper tebe.«

19 Then the children of Israel said vnto him, We will goe vp by the hie way: and if I and my cattell drinke of thy water, I will then pay for it: I will onely (without any harme) goe through on my feete.

Izraelovi otroci so mu rekli: »Šli bomo po visoki poti. In če jaz in moja živina pije od tvoje vode, potem bom plačal zanjo. Samo šel bom, ne da bi počel karkoli drugega bom šel skozi po svojih stopalih.«

20 Hee answered againe, Thou shalt not goe through. The Edom came out against him with much people, and with a mightie power.

Rekel je: »Ne boš šel skozi.« In Edóm je prišel ven zoper njega, z mnogo ljudstva in z močno roko.

21 Thus Edom denyed to giue Israel passage through his countrey: wherefore Israel turned away from him.

Tako je Edóm odklonil dati Izraelu prehod skozi njegovo mejo, zato se je Izrael obrnil proč od njega.

22 And when the children of Israel with al the Congregation departed from Kadesh, they came vnto the mount Hor.

Izraelovi otroci, torej celotna skupnost, so potovali od Kadeša in prišli na goro Hor.

23 And the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron in the mount Hor neere the coast of the land of Edom, saying,

Gospod je govoril Mojzesu in Aronu na gori Hor, ob meji dežele Edóm, rekoč:

24 Aaron shall be gathered vnto his people: for hee shall not enter into the lande, which I haue giuen vnto the children of Israel, because ye disobeyed my commandement at the water of Meribah.

»Aron bo zbran k svojemu ljudstvu, kajti ne bo vstopil v deželo, ki sem jo dal Izraelovim otrokom, ker sta se uprla zoper mojo besedo pri vodi Meríbe.

25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his sonne, and bring them vp into the mount Hor,

Vzemi Arona in njegovega sina Eleazarja ter ju privedi gor na goro Hor

26 And cause Aaron to put off his garmentes and put them vpon Eleazar his sonne: for Aaron shall be gathered to his fathers, and shall die there.

in sleci Arona iz njegovih oblačil in jih nadeni na njegovega sina Eleazarja. Aron pa bo zbran k svojim ljudem in bo tam umrl.«

27 And Moses did as the Lord had commanded: and they went vp into the mount Hor, in the sight of all the Congregation.

Mojzes je storil kakor je Gospod zapovedal in odšli so na goro Hor pred očmi vse skupnosti.

28 And Moses put off Aarons clothes, and put them vpon Eleazar his sonne: so Aaron dyed there in the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came downe from off the mount.

Mojzes je slekel Arona iz njegovih oblačil in jih nadel na njegovega sina Eleazarja in Aron je tam umrl, na vrhu gore, in Mojzes in Eleazar sta prišla dol z gore.

29 When al the Congregation sawe that Aaron was dead, al the house of Israel wept for Aaron thirtie dayes.

Ko je vsa skupnost videla, da je bil Aron mrtev, so trideset dni žalovali za Aronom, celó vsa Izraelova hiša.
