< Numbers 20 >
1 Then came the children of Israel, [even] the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month; and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
Na sanza ya liboso, lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele ekomaki na esobe ya Tsini mpe bavandaki na Kadeshi. Ezalaki kuna nde Miriami akufaki mpe bakundaki ye.
2 And there was no water for the congregation: and they assembled themselves against Moses and against Aaron.
Nzokande esika yango ezalaki na mayi ya komela te mpo na lisanga ya Isalaele, mpe bato basanganaki mpo na kotombokela Moyize mpe Aron.
3 And the people chid with Moses, and spoke, saying, O that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD!
Baswanisaki Moyize mpe balobaki: « Elingaki kozala malamu soki tokufaki na biso tango bandeko na biso bakufaki liboso ya Yawe!
4 And why have ye brought the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there?
Mpo na nini omemaki lisanga ya Yawe na esobe oyo? Ezali mpo ete biso mpe bibwele na biso tokufa awa?
5 And why have ye conducted us from Egypt, to bring us 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.
Mpo na nini obimisaki biso na Ejipito mpe omemi biso na esika oyo ya pasi, esika oyo bakoki kutu kolona ata eloko moko te, esika oyo ezanga ata mbuma ya figi to ya vino to mpe ya grenade, esika oyo ezanga kutu ata mayi ya komela? »
6 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared to them.
Moyize mpe Aron babimaki kati ya lingomba mpe bakendeki na ekuke ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, bakweyaki elongi kino na mabele, mpe nkembo ya Yawe ebimelaki bango.
7 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
8 Take the rod, and convene thou the assembly, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye to the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth its water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give drink to the congregation and their beasts.
« Zwa lingenda na yo; bongo elongo na Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali, bosangisa lisanga mobimba esika moko. Boloba na libanga wana na miso na bango, mpe ekobimisa mayi wuta na yango. Okobimisa mayi na libanga mpo ete bato ya lisanga mobimba bakoka komela elongo na bibwele na bango. »
9 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
Moyize azwaki lingenda oyo ezalaki liboso ya Yawe, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye.
10 And Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation before the rock, and he said to them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?
Ye mpe Aron basangisaki lisanga ya bato esika moko liboso ya libanga, mpe Moyize alobaki na bango: « Boyoka, bino batomboki, tokoki kobimisela bino mayi na libanga oyo? »
11 And Moses lifted his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts [also].
Moyize atombolaki loboko na ye mpe abetaki lingenda na ye na libanga mbala mibale. Mayi ebimaki; bongo lisanga mobimba elongo na bibwele na bango bamelaki.
12 And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.
Kasi Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron: « Lokola bondimeli Ngai te mpe bopesi lokumu na bosantu na Ngai te na miso ya bana ya Isalaele, bokokotisa lisusu lingomba oyo te na mokili oyo napesi bango. »
13 This [is] the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
Ezalaki mayi ya Meriba epai wapi bana ya Isalaele baswanaki na Yawe, mpe epai wapi Yawe alakisaki bosantu na Ye kati na bango.
14 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
Wuta na Kadeshi, Moyize atindaki bantoma epai ya mokonzi ya Edomi mpe alobaki: — Tala maloba oyo ndeko na yo, Isalaele, alobi: « Oyebi pasi nyonso oyo ekomelaki biso.
15 How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians afflicted us, and our fathers:
Bakoko na biso bakendeki na Ejipito mpe tokomaki kovanda kuna mibu ebele. Bato ya Ejipito banyokolaki biso elongo na bakoko na biso;
16 And when we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and hath brought us forth from Egypt: and behold, we [are] in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border:
kasi tango togangaki epai na Yawe, ayokaki kolela na biso, atindelaki biso anjelu oyo abimisaki biso na Ejipito. Sik’oyo tozali awa na kadeshi, engumba oyo ezali na suka ya mokili na yo.
17 Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither will we drink [of] the water of the wells: we will go by the king's [high] -way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy borders.
Tobondeli yo, tika biso tolekela na mboka na yo. Tokokota na elanga to na elanga ya vino moko te mpe tokomela mayi ya mabulu na bino te. Tokotambola kaka pembeni-pembeni ya nzela ya monene ya mokonzi bongo, tokokatisa ezala na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali to ya mwasi te, kino tokosilisa kokatisa mokili na yo. »
18 And Edom said to him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.
Kasi mokonzi ya Edomi azongiselaki ye: — Okoki kolekela na mokili na ngai te; soki omeki, tokobimela bino mpe tokobundisa bino na mopanga.
19 And the children of Israel said to him, We will go by the highway: and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, then I will pay for it: I will only, without [doing] any thing [else], go through on my feet.
Bana ya Isalaele bazongiselaki ye: — Tokotambola kaka pembeni-pembeni ya nzela ya monene mpe soki biso to bibwele na biso tomeli mayi na bino, tokofuta yango. Tolingi kaka eloko moko, eloko mosusu te: toleka kaka na makolo.
20 And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
Azongiselaki bango lisusu: — Bokoki kolekela awa te. Boye, bato ya Edomi babimelaki bango na mampinga monene ya basoda mpo na kobundisa bana ya Isalaele.
21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.
Lokola Edomi eboyaki ete bana ya Isalaele balekela na etuka na yango, bana ya Isalaele bazwaki nzela mosusu.
22 And the children of Israel, [even] the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came to mount Hor.
Lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele babimaki wuta na Kadeshi mpe bakomaki kino na ngomba Ori.
23 And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
Bongo, Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron na ngomba Ori, pembeni ya mondelo ya Edomi:
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 ye rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.
« Aron alingi kokende kokutana na bakoko na ye, pamba te akokota te na mokili oyo napesi bana ya Isalaele, mpo ete bino mibale botombokelaki mitindo na Ngai na mayi ya Meriba.
25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to mount Hor:
Kamata Aron na Eleazari, mwana na ye ya mobali mpe mema bango likolo ya ngomba Ori.
26 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered [to his people], and shall die there.
Longola Aron bilamba na ye mpe latisa yango Eleazari, mwana na ye ya mobali, pamba te Aron alingi kokende kokutana na bakoko na ye, akokufa kuna. »
27 And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they ascended mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
Moyize asalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki: bamataki likolo ya ngomba Ori na miso ya lisanga mobimba.
28 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.
Moyize alongolaki Aron bilamba mpe alatisaki yango Eleazari, mwana na ye ya mobali. Mpe Aron akufa kuna na likolo ya ngomba. Boye, Moyize mpe Eleazari bakitaki ngomba;
29 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, [even] all the house of Israel.
mpe tango lingomba mobimba eyokaki sango ete Aron asilaki kokufa, bato nyonso ya Isalaele basalelaki ye matanga ya mikolo tuku misato.
