Numbers 20
1 The children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month: and the people stayed in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
Potom stigoše Izraelci, sva zajednica, u pustinju Sin u prvome mjesecu. Narod se nastani u Kadešu. Ondje umrije Mirjam i ondje je sahraniše.
2 There was no water for the congregation: and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
Nije bilo vode za zajednicu. Stoga se udruže protiv Mojsija i protiv Arona.
3 The people strove with Moses, and spoke, saying, "We wish that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD.
Narod se poče svađati s Mojsijem i govoriti: “Da smo bar izginuli kad su nam i braća poginula pred Jahvom!
4 Why have you brought the assembly of the LORD into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
Zašto ste doveli Jahvinu zajednicu u ovu pustinju da ovdje pomremo i mi i naša stoka?
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."
Zašto ste nas izveli iz Egipta da nas dovedete u ovo nesretno mjesto; mjesto u kojem nema ni žita, ni smokava, ni loze, ni mogranja? Nema ni vode da pijemo.”
6 Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared to them.
Mojsije i Aron odu ispred zajednice do ulaza u Šator sastanka i padnu ničice. Tada im se pokaza slava Jahvina.
7 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
I Jahve reče Mojsiju:
8 "Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it give forth its water; and you shall bring forth to them water out of the rock; so you shall give the congregation and their livestock drink."
“Uzmi štap pa ti i tvoj brat Aron skupite zajednicu. Onda, na njihove oči, progovorite pećini da ustupi svoje vode. Iz pećine im izvedi vodu te napoj zajednicu i njezino blago.”
9 Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
Mojsije uzme štap ispred Jahve kako mu je naredio.
10 Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, "Hear now, you rebels; shall we bring you water out of this rock for you?"
Zatim Mojsije i Aron skupe zbor pred pećinu pa im Mojsije rekne: “Čujte, buntovnici! Hoćemo li vam iz ove pećine izvesti vodu?”
11 Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice: and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their livestock.
Zatim Mojsije podigne ruku i dvaput udari štapom o pećinu: voda provali u obilju, pa su mogli piti i zajednica i njezino blago.
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."
Potom će Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu: “Budući da se niste pouzdavali u me i niste me svetim očitovali u očima sinova Izraelovih, nećete uvesti ovaj zbor u zemlju koju im dajem.”
13 These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
To su Meripske vode, kraj njih su se Izraelci prepirali s Jahvom, a on se pokazao svetim.
14 Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, saying: "Thus says your brother Israel: You know all the travail that has happened to us:
Iz Kadeša pošalje Mojsije glasnike: “Kralju Edoma. Ovako veli tvoj brat Izrael: 'Ti znaš sve jade koji su nas snašli.
15 how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and our fathers:
Naši se preci spustiše u Egipat. U Egiptu smo proboravili mnogo vremena. Egipćani su s nama i s našim precima loše postupali.
16 and when we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and brought us forth out of Egypt: and look, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of your border.
Stoga smo vapili Jahvi, i on ču naš glas i posla anđela koji nas izbavi iz Egipta. Evo nas sad u Kadešu, gradu uz rub tvoga područja.
17 "Please let us pass through your land: we will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go along the king's highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border."
Pusti nas da prođemo kroz tvoju zemlju. Nećemo ići preko polja ni vinograda niti ćemo piti vodu iz bunara; ići ćemo Kraljevskim putem, ne skrećući ni desno ni lijevo, dok ne prođemo tvoje područje.”
18 Edom said to him, "You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you."
Edom mu odgovori: “Ne prolazi preko moje zemlje, jer eto me s mačem preda te!”
19 The children of Israel said to him, "We will go up by the highway; and if we drink of your water, I and my livestock, then will I give its price: let me only, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet."
“Ići ćemo utrenikom”, rekoše Izraelci, “a budemo li pili tvoje vode, mi i naša stada, za to ćemo ti platiti. Ništa više, samo da prođemo pješice.”
20 He said, "You shall not pass through." Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
“Ne prolazi!” - odgovori. I Edom mu izađe u susret s mnogo ljudi i s velikom silom.
21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
Tako Edom nije dopustio Izraelu da prođe kroz njegovo područje i Izrael se okrenu od njega.
22 They traveled from Kadesh: and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
Zaputivši se od Kadeša, stigoše Izraelci, sva zajednica, k brdu Horu.
23 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
Kod brda Hora, uz među edomsku, reče Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu:
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.
“Neka se Aron pridruži svojim precima! Neće ući u zemlju koju dajem Izraelcima, jer ste se oprli mojoj zapovijedi kod Meripskih voda.
25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
Uzmi Arona i njegova sina Eleazara, pa ih izvedi na brdo Hor.
26 and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be taken, and shall die there."
I svuci Aronu njegove haljine pa ih obuci njegovu sinu Eleazaru. Aron će se pridružiti precima, umrijet će ondje.”
27 Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
Mojsije učini kako naredi Jahve. Pred svom zajednicom popeše se na brdo Hor.
28 Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
Mojsije svuče s Arona njegove haljine te ih obuče njegovu sinu Eleazaru. Ondje navrh brda umrije Aron. Zatim se Mojsije i Eleazar spustiše s brda.
29 When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
Sva zajednica vidje da je Aron preminuo i sav dom Izraelov oplakivaše Arona trideset dana.
