< Numbers 20 >

1 And the children of Israel, the whole congregation, came into the desert of Zin in the first month, and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
Ụmụ Izrel, bụ nzukọ ahụ niile rutere nʼọzara Zin nʼọnwa nke mbụ. Ha manyere ụlọ ha na Kadesh. Ọ bụkwa nʼebe ahụ ka Miriam nwụrụ. E lie ya.
2 And there was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
Ma mmiri ọṅụṅụ adịghị nye ndị nzukọ ahụ. Ya mere na ha gbakọtara imegide Mosis na Erọn.
3 And the people quarreled with Moses, and said thus, Oh that we had but perished when our brethren perished before the Lord!
Ha sesịrị Mosis okwu sị, “Ọ gaara akara anyị mma ma a sị na anyị nwụrụ mgbe ụmụnna anyị nwụrụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
4 And why have ye brought the congregation of the Lord into this wilderness, to die there, we and our cattle!
Gịnị mere i ji kpọbata ọgbakọ nke Onyenwe anyị nʼime ọzara a, ime ka anyị na anụ ụlọ anyị niile nwụọ nʼebe a?
5 And wherefore have ye caused us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place for sowing, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; and water even there is none to drink.
Gịnị mere i ji si nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta anyị, kpọbata anyị nʼebe ọjọọ a? O nweghị mkpụrụ ọghịgha maọbụ fiig, enweghị mkpụrụ vaịnị maọbụ mkpụrụ pomegranet. Ọ dịghị mmiri dị nke ha ga-aṅụ.”
6 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the Lord appeared unto them.
Mosis na Erọn si nʼebe ọgbakọ ahụ nọ tụgharịa gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute, daa kpụọ ihu ha nʼala. E mee ka ha hụ ebube Onyenwe anyị anya.
7 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
8 Take the staff, and gather the assembly together, thou, with Aaron thy brother, and ye shall speak unto the rock before their eyes, that it shall give forth its water; and thou shalt bring forth for them water out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their cattle.
“Were mkpara ahụ, gị na nwanne gị Erọn kpọkọta nzukọ Izrel niile. Gwa nkume ahụ okwu nʼihu ha, ọ ga-asọpụta mmiri ya. Unu ga-eme ka mmiri si na nkume ahụ sọpụta nye ọgbakọ ahụ, ka ha na igwe anụ ụlọ ha, ṅụọ mmiri.”
9 And Moses took the staff from before the Lord, as he had commanded him.
Ya mere Mosis sitere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị weere mkpara ahụ dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere ya si dị.
10 And Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels! shall we out of this rock bring forth water for you?
Emesịa, Mosis na Erọn kpọkọtara ụmụ Izrel niile nʼihu nkume ahụ. Mgbe ha bịaruru nso, Mosis gwara ha okwu sị ha, “Geenụ ntị unu ndị nnupu isi! Ọ bụ site na nkume a ka anyị ga-enye unu mmiri?”
11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and he smote the rock with his staff twice: and there came out much water, and the congregation drank, together with their cattle.
Mgbe ahụ Mosis weliri aka ya elu jiri mkpara ahụ tie nkume ahụ ugboro abụọ. Mmiri sitere na ya sọpụta. Ọgbakọ Izrel niile na igwe anụ ụlọ ha ṅụkwara mmiri.
12 And the Lord said unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye have not confided in me, to sanctify me before the eyes of the children of Israel: therefore shall ye not bring this congregation into the land which I have given to them.
Ma Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị, “Ebe ọ bụ na unu jụrụ ikwenye nʼokwu m, jụkwa ido m nsọ nʼihu ndị Izrel niile, unu agaghị edubata ọgbakọ ndị a nʼala ahụ m na-aga inye ha.”
13 These are the waters of Meribah; where the children of Israel quarreled with the Lord, and through which he was sanctified.
A kpọrọ ebe ahụ mmiri Meriba, nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼebe ahụ ka Izrel wesoro Onyenwe anyị iwe. O gosikwara ha ịdị nsọ ya.
14 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus hath said thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the hardship that hath befallen us.
Mosis sitere nʼọzara Kadesh, zipụ ndị ozi ka ha gakwuru eze Edọm, sị ya, “Otu a ka nwanne gị bụ Izrel na-ekwu: Ị nụla akụkọ ihe nhụju anya niile dakwasịrị anyị.
15 How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt many days; and the Egyptians did evil to us, and to our fathers:
Nna anyị gara biri nʼala Ijipt. Anyị biri nʼebe ahụ ọtụtụ afọ. Ndị Ijipt mekpara anyị na nna nna anyị ha ahụ.
16 And we cried unto the Lord, and he heard our voice, and he sent a messenger, and caused us to go forth out of Egypt; and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city at the outmost end of thy border.
Ma mgbe anyị tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa, ọ nụrụ akwa anyị, zitere anyị mmụọ ozi ya, onye dupụtara anyị site nʼala Ijipt. “Ugbu a, anyị nọ na Kadesh obodo dị nso nʼoke ala gị.
17 Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy country; we will not pass through field, or through vineyard, and we will not drink the water of the wells: by the king's highway will we go, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy border.
Biko kwere ka anyị si nʼala gị gafee. Anyị ga-akpachara anya hụ na anyị esiteghị nʼubi ihe ọkụkụ gị maọbụ nʼubi vaịnị gị gafee. Anyị agaghị aṅụ mmiri ọbụla site nʼolulu mmiri gị. Anyị ga-anọgide naanị nʼokporoụzọ eze. Anyị agaghị ahapụ ya, chee ihu akụkụ aka nri maọbụ aka ekpe, tutu ruo mgbe anyị gafechara oke ala gị.”
18 And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through my land, lest I come against thee with the sword.
Ma eze Edọm zara sị, “Unu amanyela ụkwụ; ọ bụrụ na unu anwaa anwa bata nʼala m, aga m eji ndị agha m zute unu.”
19 And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the highway: and if we drink of thy water, I and my cattle, then will I pay its value; I will do thee no injury, only on foot will I pass through.
Ma ndị Izrel zara ozi o ziri sị ya, “Ọ bụ naanị nʼokporoụzọ ka anyị ga-esi gafee. Ọ bụrụ na anyị maọbụ anụ ụlọ anyị a ṅụọ mmiri dị nʼala gị, anyị ga-akwụ ọnụahịa ya. Naanị mkpa anyị bụ ịgafe. Ọ dịghị ihe ọzọ anyị chọrọ.”
20 And he said, Thou shalt not pass through; and Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
Ma eze Edọm aṅaghị ntị, ọ gwaghere ha ọnụ sị, “Unu agaghị esite nʼala gabiga.” Edọm chịkọtara ọtụtụ ndị agha dị ike duru ha pụọ ịga izute ha.
21 And as Edom thus refused to permit Israel to pass through his border, Israel turned away from him.
Ebe ọ bụ na ndị Edọm ekweghị ka ndị Izrel si nʼoke ala ha gafee, ndị Izrel tụgharịrị azụ hapụ isi ụzọ ahụ.
22 And they set forward from Kadesh; and the children of Israel, the whole congregation, came unto mount Hor.
Ọgbakọ Izrel niile sitere na Kadesh bulie ije gagide rute nʼugwu Hor.
23 And the Lord said unto Moses and Aaron at mount Hor, by the boundary of the land of Edom, as followeth,
Nʼugwu Hor, nʼoke ala Edọm, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị ha,
24 Aaron shall be gathered unto his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my order at the waters of Meribah.
“Oge eruola mgbe Erọn ga-anwụ. Ọ gaghị abanye nʼala ahụ m nyere ụmụ Izrel, nʼihi na unu abụọ nupuru isi nʼiwu m na mmiri Meriba.
25 Take Aaron and Elazar, his son, and cause them to go up unto mount Hor:
Ugbu a, kpọrọ Erọn na nwa ya nwoke Elieza, duru ha gaa nʼugwu Hor.
26 And cause Aaron to take off his garments, and clothe therewith Elazar his son; and Aaron shall be gathered in, and he shall die there.
Nʼebe ahụ ka ị ga-eyipụ Erọn uwe onye nchụaja o yi, yikwasị ha Elieza nwa ya nwoke. Ọ bụkwa nʼebe ahụ ka Erọn ga-anọ nwụọ.”
27 And Moses did as the Lord had commanded; and they went up to mount Hor before the eyes of all the congregation.
Ya mere Mosis mere dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya iwu. Ha atọ rigoro nʼugwu Hor mgbe nzukọ Izrel niile nọ na-ele ha anya.
28 And Moses caused Aaron to take off his garments, and he clothed therewith Elazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mount; and Moses and Elazar then came down from the mount.
Mgbe ha ruru nʼelu ugwu ahụ, Mosis yipụrụ Erọn uwe onye nchụaja ya yikwasị ha nwa ya nwoke Elieza. Erọn nọkwa nʼebe ahụ, nʼelu ugwu ahụ nwụọ. Emesịa, Mosis na Elieza tụgharịrị site nʼugwu ahụ lọghachi.
29 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was departed, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
Mgbe ọgbakọ Izrel nụrụ ihe banyere ọnwụ Erọn ha ruru ụjụ nʼihi ya iri ụbọchị atọ.
