< Mose 4 20 >
1 Israelviwo ɖo Zin gbedzi le ƒea ƒe ɣleti gbãtɔ me. Woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Kades. Miriam ku, eye woɖii ɖe afi ma.
Khona abantwana bakoIsrayeli, inhlangano yonke, bafika enkangala yeZini ngenyanga yokuqala; labantu bahlala eKadeshi. UMiriyamu wasefela lapho, wangcwatshwa khona.
2 Tsi mebɔ ɖe afi ma na nono o, ale ameawo gadze aglã ɖe Mose kple Aron ŋu. Ameha gã aɖe ɖi anyi,
Njalo kwakungelamanzi enhlangano; ngakho bahlangana bamelana loMozisi bamelana loAroni.
3 eye wowɔ takpekpe ɖe Mose kple Aron ŋu. Wodo ɣli ɖe Mose ta gblɔ be, “Ɖe míawo hã míaku kple mía nɔvi lɔlɔ̃a siwo Yehowa wu hafi!
Abantu baphikisana loMozisi bakhuluma besithi: Kungathi ngabe safa ekufeni kwabafowethu phambi kweNkosi!
4 Ɖe nèɖoe koŋ kplɔ Yehowa ƒe amewo va gbedzi le afi sia be míawo kple míaƒe lãhawo siaa natsrɔ̃!
Liletheleni ibandla leNkosi enkangala le ukuze sifele lapha, thina lezifuyo zethu?
5 Nu ka koŋkoŋkoŋ ta nèna míedzo le Egipte, eye nèkplɔ mí va teƒe sesẽ sia ɖo? Ègblɔ na mí be míayi anyigba nyui si dzi nuku wɔnukuwo abe gbotiwo, wain tsetsewo kple yevuboɖatiwo ene le. Anyigba si ƒe nya nègblɔ na mí ɖe? Tsi teti gɔ̃ hã meli ade mía nu míano le afi sia o!”
Lasenyuselani sisuka eGibhithe ukusiletha kulindawo embi? Kakusiyo indawo yenhlanyelo lemikhiwa lamavini lamapomegranati, futhi kakulamanzi okunatha.
6 Mose kple Aron wotrɔ le wo gbɔ yi Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu. Wotsyɔ mo anyi le Yehowa ŋkume. Tete Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ɖe eɖokui fia wo.
UMozisi loAroni basebesuka phambi kwebandla, baya emnyango wethente lenhlangano, bathi mbo ngobuso babo phansi. Inkazimulo yeNkosi yasibonakala kubo.
7 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
8 “Tsɔ Aron ƒe atikplɔ la. Mi kple Aron miƒo ameawo nu ƒu. Ƒo nu le ameawo ƒe ŋkume na agakpe si le afi mɛ ɖa la be wòana tsi nado tso eme; eye nàna tsi wo tso agakpe la me wòade na ameawo kple woƒe lãwo katã.”
Thatha intonga, ubuthanise inhlangano, wena loAroni umnewenu, likhulume kulo idwala phambi kwamehlo abo, njalo lizanika amanzi alo; ngalokhu uzabakhuphela amanzi edwaleni, ukuze ulinathise ibandla lezifuyo zabo.
9 Mose wɔ nu si Mawu ɖo nɛ. Etsɔ atikplɔ la tso afi si wòdzrae ɖo le Yehowa ŋkume.
UMozisi wasethatha intonga esuka phambi kweNkosi njengokumlaya kwayo.
10 Mose kple Aron woyɔ ameawo, eye wona woƒo ƒu ɖe agakpe la gbɔ. Mose gblɔ na wo be, “Miɖo to, mi aglãdzelawo! Ɖe míaɖe tsi tso agakpe sia me na mia?”
UMozisi loAroni basebebuthanisa ibandla phambi kwedwala; wasesithi kubo: Zwanini-ke, lina bahlamuki; sizalikhuphela yini amanzi edwaleni leli?
11 Mose kɔ atikplɔ la dzi, eye wòƒo agakpe la zi eve. Enumake tsi do bababa tso agakpe la me ameawo kple woƒe lãwo no.
UMozisi wasephakamisa isandla sakhe, watshaya idwala kabili ngentonga yakhe; kwasekumpompoza amanzi amanengi, inhlangano yasinatha, lezifuyo zayo.
12 Ke Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be, “Zi ale si mieɖo ŋu ɖe ŋunye o, eye miekɔ ŋutinye le Israelviwo ŋkume o ta la, miakplɔ Israelviwo ade anyigba si ŋugbe medo na wo la dzi o!”
INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi lakuAroni: Ngoba lingangikholwanga, ukungingcwelisa emehlweni abantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngakho kaliyikungenisa ibandla leli elizweni engibanike lona.
13 Wona ŋkɔ teƒe sia be Meriba, si gɔmee nye “Dzrewɔtsi,” elabena afi siae Israelviwo tso ɖe Yehowa ŋu le eye Yehowa ɖee fia wo be yele kɔkɔe le woƒe ŋkume.
La ngamanzi eMeriba, lapho abantwana bakoIsrayeli abaphikisana khona leNkosi, yasingcweliswa kubo.
14 Esi Mose nɔ Kades la, eɖo amewo ɖe Edom fia gbɔ be, “Míawoe nye nɔviwò Israel ƒe dzidzimeviwo. Ènya ale si míaƒe ŋutinya wɔ nublanuii,
UMozisi wasethuma izithunywa enkosini yeEdoma zisuka eKadeshi wathi: Utsho njalo umfowenu uIsrayeli: Wena uyazazi zonke inkathazo ezisehleleyo,
15 ale si mía tɔgbuiwo yi Egipte, nɔ afi ma ƒe geɖewo, eye wozu kluviwo na Egiptetɔwo.
lokuthi obaba behlela eGibhithe, sasesihlala eGibhithe insuku ezinengi; lamaGibhithe asiphatha kubi labobaba.
16 Ke esi míedo ɣli na Yehowa la, ese míaƒe kokoƒoƒo, eye wòɖo mawudɔla aɖe ɖa wòva kplɔ mí dzoe le Egipte. “Fifia míele Kades. Míeƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe wò liƒo dzi.
Sasesikhala eNkosini, yasisizwa ilizwi lethu, yathuma ingilosi, yasikhupha eGibhithe; khangela-ke siseKadeshi, umuzi osekucineni komngcele wakho.
17 Míeɖe kuku ɖe mɔ na mí míato wò anyigba dzi. Míakpɔ nyuie be míato miaƒe agblewo kple waingblewo me o. Míano tsi tso miaƒe vudowo me hã o. Míanɔ mɔ gã la dzi ko tẽe. Míadzo le mɔ gã la dzi o va se ɖe esime míado go le wò anyigba dzi.”
Ake usiyekele sidabule elizweni lakho. Kasiyikudabula ensimini loba esivinini, futhi kasiyikunatha amanzi omthombo. Sizahamba ngomgwaqo wenkosi, kasiyikuphambukela ngakwesokunene langakwesokhohlo, size sedlule umngcele wakho.
18 Ke Edom fia gblɔ na wo be, “Migaɖo afɔ nye anyigba dzi o! Ne mietee kpɔ be yewoaɖo afɔ nye anyigba dzi la, nye aʋakɔ akpe aʋa kpli mi!”
Kodwa uEdoma wathi kuye: Kawuyikudabula kimi, hlezi ngiphume ngenkemba ngimelane lawe.
19 Israelviwo ƒe ame dɔdɔwo yi edzi be, “Fia bubutɔ, mɔ gã la dzi ko míanɔ. Ne míano tsi tso miaƒe vudo me gɔ̃ hã la, míaxe fe ɖe sia ɖe si nàbia la ɖe eta. Ale si míatso eme ayi ko biam míele; míegale nu bubu aɖeke biam o.”
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesithi kuye: Sizahamba ngomgwaqo omkhulu. Uba-ke mina lezifuyo zami sinatha okwamanzi akho, sizawabhadalela; kuphela ngizadabula ngenyawo zami nje.
20 Edom fia gbe gbidigbidi gblɔ na wo be, “Migage ɖe nye anyigba dzi o.” Ena aʋakɔ gã aɖe ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe eƒe liƒo dzi.
Kodwa wathi: Kawuyikudabula. UEdoma wasephuma wamelana laye elabantu abanengi, langesandla esilamandla.
21 Esi Edom gbe be womato yeƒe anyigba dzi o ta la, Israelviwo glɔ̃ mɔ to Edom ŋu.
Ngalokhu uEdoma wala ukuvumela uIsrayeli ukudabula emngceleni wakhe. Ngakho uIsrayeli waphambuka wasuka kuye.
22 Israelviwo ƒe ha blibo la ho, dze mɔ tso Kades, eye wova ɖo Hor to la gbɔ.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli, inhlangano yonke, basebesuka eKadeshi, bafika entabeni yeHori.
23 Le Hor to la gbɔ, teƒe si te ɖe Edom ƒe liƒo ŋu la, Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi lakuAroni entabeni yeHori, emngceleni welizwe leEdoma, isithi:
24 “Azã la su be Aron naku, elabena made anyigba, si metsɔ na Israelviwo la dzi o, le esi mi ame evea mietsi tsitre ɖe nye ɖoɖowo ŋu tso tsi si le Meriba ŋu la ta.
UAroni uzabuthelwa ebantwini bakibo, ngoba kayikungena elizweni engilinike abantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngoba lahlamukela ilizwi lami emanzini eMeriba.
25 Azɔ, kplɔ Aron kple via Eleazar yi Hor to la dzi.
Thatha uAroni loEleyazare indodana yakhe, ubenyusele entabeni yeHori,
26 Ɖe Aron ƒe nunɔlawuwo le eŋuti, eye nàdo wo na via, Eleazar. Aron aku ɖe afi ma.”
umhlubule uAroni izembatho zakhe, uzifake kuEleyazare indodana yakhe; ngoba uAroni uzabuthelwa kwabakibo, afele lapho.
27 Ale Mose wɔ nu si Yehowa ɖo nɛ. Wo ame etɔ̃ la wolia Hor to la esi ameawo katã nɔ wo kpɔm.
UMozisi wenza njengokulaya kweNkosi. Basebesenyukela entabeni yeHori phambi kwamehlo enhlangano yonke.
28 Esi woɖo toa tame la, Mose ɖe nunɔlawuawo le Aron ŋu, eye wòtsɔ wo do na Aron ƒe viŋutsu Eleazar. Aron ku ɖe to la tame. Mose kple Eleazar trɔ gbɔ,
UMozisi wasemhlubula uAroni izembatho zakhe, wazifaka kuEleyazare indodana yakhe. UAroni wasefela lapho engqongeni yentaba. UMozisi loEleyazare basebesehla entabeni.
29 eye esi ameawo se be Aron ku la, Israelviwo fae ŋkeke blaetɔ̃.
Lapho inhlangano yonke ibona ukuthi uAroni usephelile, balilela uAroni insuku ezingamatshumi amathathu, indlu yonke kaIsrayeli.
