Numbers 20
1 So the people of Israel, the whole community, went into the wilderness of Zin in the first month; they stayed at Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried.
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 There was no water for the community, so they assembled together against Moses and Aaron.
Wangin kof ke acn elos aktuktuk we. Ke ma inge mwet uh tukeni nu yorol Moses ac Aaron
3 The people complained against Moses. They said, “It would have been better if we had died when our fellow Israelites died in front of Yahweh!
ac torkaskas fahk, “Kut funu wi mwet Israel wiasr misa na ye mutun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD, lukun wona!
4 Why have you brought Yahweh's community into this wilderness to die here, we and our animals?
Efu komtal ku uskutme nu yen mwesis se inge? Mea, tuh kut ac kosro natusr uh in misa we?
5 Why did you make us come up out of Egypt to bring us to this horrible place? Here there is no seed, figs, vines, or pomegranates, 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 So Moses and Aaron went away from in front of the assembly. They went to the entrance of the tent of meeting and lay facedown. There Yahweh's brilliant glory appeared to 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 Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,
8 “Take the staff and assemble the community, you, and Aaron your brother. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and command it to flow with water. You will produce water for them out of that rock, and you must give it to the community and their cattle to drink.”
“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 Moses took the staff from before Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded him to do.
Moses el som ac eis sikal soko ah oana LEUM GOD El sapkin.
10 Then Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock. Moses said to them, “Listen now, you rebels. Must we bring water out of this rock for you?”
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 Then Moses raised his hand and struck the rock twice with his staff, and much water came out. The community drank, and their cattle drank.
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 Then Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not trust me or honor me as holy in the eyes of the people of Israel, you will not bring this assembly into the land I have given 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 This place was called the waters of Meribah because the people of Israel had quarreled with Yahweh there, and he showed himself to them as holy.
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 Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom: Your brother Israel says this: “You know all the difficulties that have happened to 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 You know that our ancestors went down to Egypt and lived in Egypt a long time. The Egyptians treated us harshly and also our ancestors.
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 When we called out to Yahweh, he heard our voice and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt. Look, we are in Kadesh, a city on the border of your land.
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 I am asking you to let us pass through your land. We will not pass through field or vineyard, nor will we drink the water in your wells. We will go along the king's highway. We will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left until we have passed 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 But the king of Edom replied to him, “You may not pass through here. If you do, I will come with the sword to attack you.”
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 Then the people of Israel said to him, “We will go along the highway. If we or our livestock drink your water, we will pay for it. Just let us walk through on foot, without doing anything else.”
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 But the king of Edom replied, “You may not pass through.” So the king of Edom came against Israel with a strong hand with many soldiers.
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 The king of Edom refused to allow Israel to cross over their border. Because of this, Israel turned away from the land of Edom.
Ke sripen mwet Edom uh tia lela mwet Israel in fahla fin acn selos, na mwet Israel forla ac ut ke sokona inkanek.
22 So the people journeyed from Kadesh. The people of Israel, the whole community, came to Mount Hor.
Mwet Israel nukewa mukuiyak liki acn Kadesh ac tuku nu Fineol Hor,
23 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron at Mount Hor, on Edom's border. He said,
nu ke masrol lun acn Edom. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,
24 “Aaron must be gathered to his people, for he will not enter the land that I have given to the people of Israel. This is because you both rebelled against my word 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 Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor.
Eisal Aaron ac Eleazar wen natul, ac utyak nu Fineol Hor.
26 Take Aaron's priestly garments off him and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron must die and be gathered to his people there.”
Na sarukla nuknuk loeloes lun mwet tol lal Aaron we, ac sang nokmulang Eleazar. Aaron el ac misa ingo.”
27 Moses did as Yahweh commanded. They went up Mount Hor in the sight of all the community.
Moses el oru oana ke LEUM GOD El sapkin. Eltal fanyak nu Fineol Hor ye mutun mwet Israel nukewa.
28 Moses took Aaron's priestly garments off him and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down.
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 When all the community saw that Aaron was dead, the entire nation wept for Aaron for thirty days.
Ke mwet Israel elos lohngak lah Aaron el misa, elos nukewa tung ac eoksra kacl ke len tolngoul.
