Numbers 20

1 And the sons of Israel, all the congregation, come [into] the wilderness of Zin in the first month, and the people abide in Kadesh; and Miriam dies there and is buried there.

Ke malem se meet, sruf nukewa lun Israel tuku nu yen mwesis Zin ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Kadesh. Na Miriam el misa ac pukpuki we.

2 And there has been no water for the congregation, and they are assembled against Moses and against Aaron,

Wangin kof ke acn elos aktuktuk we. Ke ma inge mwet uh tukeni nu yorol Moses ac Aaron

3 and the people strive with Moses and speak, saying, “And oh that we had expired when our brothers expired before YHWH!

ac torkaskas fahk, “Kut funu wi mwet Israel wiasr misa na ye mutun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD, lukun wona!

4 And why have you brought in the assembly of YHWH to this wilderness to die there, we and our beasts?

Efu komtal ku uskutme nu yen mwesis se inge? Mea, tuh kut ac kosro natusr uh in misa we?

5 And why have you brought us up out of Egypt to bring us to this evil place? [It is] not a place of seed, and fig, and vine, and pomegranate; and there is no water to drink.”

Efu komtal ku uskutme liki acn Egypt nu yen na koluk se inge? Wangin ma ku in kapak fin acn se inge. Wangin wheat, ku fig, ku grape, ku pomegranate — finne kof in nimnim, wangin pac!”

6 And Moses and Aaron go in from the presence of the assembly to the opening of the Tent of Meeting and fall on their faces, and the glory of YHWH is seen by them.

Moses ac Aaron som liki mwet uh ac tu ke acn in utyak lun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal. Eltal faksufi, ac kalem wolana lun LEUM GOD sikyak nu selos.

7 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,

8 “Take the rod and assemble the congregation—you and your brother Aaron—and you have spoken to the rock before their eyes, and it has given its water, and you have brought out water to them from the rock, and have watered the congregation and their beasts.”

“Srukak sikal soko ma oan ke mutun Tuptup in Wuleang, na kom ac Aaron pangoneni un mwet Israel nukewa. Ye mutalos nukewa komtal fah sap nu ke eot se meet oh ingo, na kof uh fah sororma liki eot sac. In lumah se inge kom fah sang kof liki eot sac nimen mwet uh ac oayapa kosro natulos.”

9 And Moses takes the rod from before YHWH as He has commanded him,

Moses el som ac eis sikal soko ah oana LEUM GOD El sapkin.

10 and Moses and Aaron assemble the assembly to the front of the rock, and he says to them, “Now hear, O rebels, do we bring out water to you from this rock?”

Na el ac Aaron pangoneni mwet Israel nukewa nu ke mutun eot sac, ac Moses el fahk, “Porongeyu, kowos mwet tunyuna! Ya kut ac oru tuh kof uh in tuku liki eot se inge nu suwos?”

11 And Moses lifts up his hand and strikes the rock with his rod twice; and much water comes out, and the congregation drinks, and their beasts [drink].

Moses el kolak sikal soko ah, ac sang sringilya eot sac pacl luo, na kof na lulap se asrma, ac mwet nukewa, wi kosro uh, nim.

12 And YHWH says to Moses and to Aaron, “Because you have not believed in Me to sanctify Me before the eyes of the sons of Israel, therefore you do not bring in this assembly to the land which I have given to them.”

Tusruktu LEUM GOD El sang kas in kai nu sel Moses ac Aaron. El fahk, “Ke sripen srikla lulalfongi lomtal in fahkak kalem ke ku mutal luk ye mutun mwet Israel, komtal ac tia kololos nu in acn se ma nga wuleang in sang lalos.”

13 These [are] the waters of Meribah, because the sons of Israel have “striven” with YHWH, and He is sanctified among them.

Ma inge sikyak Meribah, yen se mwet Israel uh torkaskas lain LEUM GOD we, ac yen se LEUM GOD El akkalemye nu selos lah El mutal.

14 And Moses sends messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, “Thus said your brother Israel: You have known all the travail which has found us,

Moses el supwala mwet utuk kas Kadesh lac nu yurin tokosra lun acn Edom. Elos fahk, “Siyuk se inge ma sin mwet wiom, mwet Israel. Kom etu lupan mwe keok ma sikyak nu sesr uh,

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

ke mwet matu lasr tuh som nu Egypt, acn se kut tuh muta we ke yac puspis. Mwet Egypt uh orekut ac mwet matu lasr uh arulana koluk.

16 then we cry to YHWH, and He hears our voice, and sends a Messenger, and is bringing us out of Egypt; and behold, we [are] in Kadesh, a city [in] the extremity of your border.

Na kut wowoyak tung nu sin LEUM GOD ac siyuk ke kasru. El lohng tung lasr ac supwama lipufan se, su pwenkutme liki acn Egypt. Inge kut oasr Kadesh, sie acn ma oan sisken masrol nu ke facl sum uh.

17 Please let us pass over through your land; we do not pass over through a field or through a vineyard, nor do we drink waters of a well; we go the way of the king, we do not turn aside [to] the right or left until we pass over your border.”

Nunak munas, lela nu sesr in fahsr sasla in acn sum. Kut, ac cow natusr, fah tia kuhfla liki inkanek lulap in utyak nu in ima lom ku ima in grape sunom, ac kut ac fah tia nim kof ke lufin kof lowos uh. Kut ac fahsr na fin inkanek lulap ah, nwe ke kut alukela facl sum uh.”

18 And Edom says to him, “You do not pass over through me, lest I come out to meet you with the sword.”

Tokosra lun mwet Edom el topuk ac fahk, “Nga tia lelu kowos in fahsr sasla facl sesr uh! Kowos fin srike in oru, kut ac illa mweuni kowos.”

19 And the sons of Israel say to him, “We go in the highway, and if we drink of your waters—I and my livestock—then I have given their price; only, let me pass over on my feet, nothing [more].”

Na mwet Israel uh fahk, “Kut ac fahsr na ke innek lulap uh, na kut, ku kosro natusr uh, fin nim kutena kof ke facl sum, kut fah moli. Pwayena ma kut enenu pa kut in fahla sasla facl sum uh.”

20 And he says, “You do not pass over”; and Edom comes out to meet him with many people and with a strong hand;

Na tokosra sac sifilpa fahk, “Mo! Kut tiana lela!” Na mwet Edom elos illa ke un mwet mweun na lulap ac ku se in mweuni mwet Israel.

21 and Edom refuses to permit Israel to pass over through his border, and Israel turns aside from off him.

Ke sripen mwet Edom uh tia lela mwet Israel in fahla fin acn selos, na mwet Israel forla ac ut ke sokona inkanek.

22 And the sons of Israel, all the congregation, journey from Kadesh and come to Mount Hor,

Mwet Israel nukewa mukuiyak liki acn Kadesh ac tuku nu Fineol Hor,

23 and YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron in Mount Hor, on the border of the land of Edom, saying,

nu ke masrol lun acn Edom. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,

24 “Aaron is gathered to his people, for he does not go into the land which I have given to the sons of Israel, because that you provoked My mouth at the waters of Meribah.

“Aaron el ac tia wi ilyak nu in facl se su nga wulela in sang nu sin mwet Israel. El ac misa ke sripen komtal tuh lain ma nga sapkin in acn Meribah.

25 Take Aaron and his son Eleazar, and cause them to go up Mount Hor,

Eisal Aaron ac Eleazar wen natul, ac utyak nu Fineol Hor.

26 and strip Aaron of his garments, and you have clothed his son Eleazar [with] them, and Aaron is gathered, and dies there.”

Na sarukla nuknuk loeloes lun mwet tol lal Aaron we, ac sang nokmulang Eleazar. Aaron el ac misa ingo.”

27 And Moses does as YHWH has commanded, and they go up to Mount Hor before the eyes of all the congregation,

Moses el oru oana ke LEUM GOD El sapkin. Eltal fanyak nu Fineol Hor ye mutun mwet Israel nukewa.

28 and Moses strips Aaron of his garments, and clothes his son Eleazar with them, and Aaron dies there on the top of the mountain; and Moses comes down—Eleazar also—from the mountain,

Ac Moses el sarukla nuknuk in mwet tol lal Aaron ac sang nokmulang Eleazar. Na Aaron el misa ingo fin mangon eol uh, ac Moses ac Eleazar tufoki liki fineol uh.

29 and all the congregation sees that Aaron has expired, and all the house of Israel laments Aaron [for] thirty days.

Ke mwet Israel elos lohngak lah Aaron el misa, elos nukewa tung ac eoksra kacl ke len tolngoul.
