Ƙidaya 20
1 A watan fari, dukan jama’ar Isra’ilawa suka iso Hamadan Zin. Suka sauka a Kadesh. A nan ne Miriyam ta mutu, aka kuma bizne ta.
And the sons of Israel, and the entire multitude, went into the desert of Sin, in the first month. And the people stayed at Kadesh. And Miriam died there, and she was buried in the same place.
2 Sai aka rasa ruwa da jama’a za su sha, mutane suka taru, suka tayar wa Musa da Haruna.
And when the people were in need of water, they came together against Moses and Aaron.
3 Suka yi gunaguni wa Musa suka ce, “Da ma mun mutu sa’ad da’yan’uwanmu suka mutu a gaban Ubangiji!
And as it turned into sedition, they said: “If only we had perished among our brothers in the sight of the Lord.
4 Don me ka kawo jama’ar Ubangiji a wannan hamada, don mu da dabbobinmu mu mutu a nan ke nan?
Why have you led away the Church of the Lord, into the wilderness, so that both we and our cattle would die?
5 Don me ka fitar da mu daga Masar zuwa wannan banzan wuri, inda babu hatsi ko ɓaure, inabi ko rumman. Kuma babu ruwan da za a sha?”
Why did you cause us to ascend from Egypt, and why have you led us into this most wretched place, which is not able to be sown, which does not produce figs, or vines, or pomegranates, and which, moreover, does not even have water to drink?”
6 Sai Musa da Haruna suka tashi daga taron, suka tafi ƙofar Tentin Sujada, suka fāɗi rubda ciki, sai ɗaukakar Ubangiji ta bayyana musu.
And Moses and Aaron, dismissing the multitude, entered the tabernacle of the covenant, and they fell prone on the ground, and they cried out to the Lord, and they said: “O Lord God, listen to the outcry of this people, and open for them, from your storehouse, a fountain of living water, so that, being satisfied, their murmuring may cease.” And the glory of the Lord appeared over them.
7 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
8 “Ka ɗauki sandanka, kai da Haruna, ɗan’uwanka, ku tara jama’a, ku yi magana da dutsen a gabansu ya ba da ruwan da yake cikinsa. Za ka sa ruwa ya ɓuɓɓugo musu daga dutsen. Ta haka za ka ba taron jama’a da garkunansu ruwan sha.”
“Take the rod, and gather the people, you and your brother Aaron, and speak to the rock before them, and it shall bestow waters. And when you have brought forth water from the rock, the entire multitude and their cattle shall drink.”
9 Sai Musa ya je ya ɗauki sandan kamar yadda Ubangiji ya umarce shi.
Therefore, Moses took the rod, which was in the sight of the Lord, just as he had instructed him.
10 Shi da Haruna, suka tara jama’a a gaban dutsen, Musa ya ce musu, “Ku saurara, ku’yan tawaye, dole mu kawo muku ruwa daga wannan dutse?”
And having gathered the multitude before the rock, he said to them: “Listen, you who are rebellious and unbelieving. Would we be able to cast out water from this rock?”
11 Sai Musa ya ɗaga hannu, ya bugi dutsen sau biyu da sandansa. Ruwa kuwa ya yi ta kwararowa, jama’a da dabbobinsu suka sha.
And when Moses had lifted up his hand, striking the stone twice with the rod, very great waters went forth, so much so that the people and their cattle were able to drink.
12 Amma Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa da Haruna. “Tun da yake ba ku gaskata ni ba, ba ku kuwa ɗaukaka ni a idon Isra’ilawa ba, to, ba za ku kai taron jama’an nan a ƙasar da na ba su ba.”
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe me, so as to sanctify me before the sons of Israel, you shall not lead this people into the land, which I will give to them.”
13 Waɗannan su ne ruwan Meriba, inda Isra’ilawa suka yi wa Ubangiji gunaguni, inda kuma ya nuna kansa mai tsarki a cikinsu.
This is the Water of Contradiction, where the sons of Israel were quarreling against the Lord, and he was sanctified in them.
14 Musa ya aiki manzanni daga Kadesh zuwa wurin sarkin Edom cewa, “Ga abin da ɗan’uwanka Isra’ila ya ce ka san duk irin wahalolin da ya same mu.
Meanwhile, Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom. They said: “Your brother Israel says this: You know of all the hardships which have overtaken us,
15 Kakanninmu sun gangaro zuwa Masar, muka zauna can shekaru da yawa. Masarawa suka wulaƙanta mu, da kuma kakanninmu,
how our fathers descended into Egypt, and we lived there for a long time, and the Egyptians afflicted both us and our fathers,
16 amma da muka yi kuka a gaban Ubangiji, ya kuwa ji mu, sai ya aiko mala’ika, ya fitar da mu daga Masar. “Yanzu ga mu a Kadesh, garin da yake kan iyakar yankinka.
and how we cried out to the Lord, and he heeded us and sent an Angel, who led us away from Egypt. Behold, we are situated in the city of Kadesh, which is at the extremity of your borders.
17 Muna roƙonka, ka yarda mana mu bi ta ƙasarka. Ba za mu bi ta wani fili, ko gonar inabi ba, ko mu sha ruwa daga wata rijiya ba. Za mu bi ta babban hanyar sarki, ba kuwa za mu kauce dama, ko hagu ba, har mu wuce yankinka.”
And we beg you to permit us to cross through your land. We will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards; we will not drink the waters of your wells, but we will travel by the public ways, neither turning aside to the right, nor to the left, until we have passed your borders.”
18 Amma Edom ya amsa ya ce, “Ba za ku bi ta nan ba; in kuka kuskura, za mu fito, mu yaƙe ku da takobi.”
Edom responded to them: “You shall not cross through me, otherwise, I will meet you armed.”
19 Sai Isra’ilawa suka amsa, suka ce, “Za mu bi ta babbar hanya, in mu, ko dabbobinmu suka sha ruwanku, za mu biya. Mu dai muna so mu wuce ne kawai.”
And the sons of Israel said: “We will travel by the well-trodden path. And if we or our cattle drink from your waters, we will give you what is just. There shall be no difficulty in the price, only let us cross through quickly.”
20 Sai mutanen Edom suka sāke amsa suka ce, “Ba za ku bi nan ba dai.” Sai Edom ya fito da runduna mai ƙarfi da yawa gaske a kan Isra’ila.
But he answered, “You shall not cross.” And immediately he went out to meet them with a countless multitude and a strong hand;
21 Da yake Edom suka ƙi su bar su su ratsa yankinsu, sai Isra’ila suka juya suka janye daga gare su.
neither was he willing to agree to their petition to concede passage through his borders. For this reason, Israel diverted away from him.
22 Dukan Jama’ar Isra’ilawa suka tashi daga Kadesh, suka zo Dutsen Hor.
And when they had moved the camp from Kadesh, they arrived at mount Hor, which is at the borders of the land of Edom,
23 A Dutsen Hor, kusa da iyakar Edom, Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa da Haruna,
where the Lord spoke to Moses:
24 “Haruna zai rasu. Ba zai shiga ƙasar da na ba Isra’ilawa ba, domin ku biyu, kun ƙi ku bi umarnina a ruwan Meriba.
“Let Aaron,” he said, “go to his people. For he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the sons of Israel, because he did not believe my mouth at the Waters of Contradiction.
25 Ka kawo Haruna da ɗansa Eleyazar, ka kai su a bisan Dutsen Hor.
Take Aaron, and his son with him, and lead them on to mount Hor.
26 Ka tuɓe taguwar Haruna ka sa wa ɗansa Eleyazar, gama Haruna zai rasu a can.”
And when you have stripped the father of his vestments, you shall put them on Eleazar, his son. Aaron shall be gathered and shall die there.”
27 Musa ya yi yadda Ubangiji ya umarta. Suka hau Dutsen Hor a idon dukan jama’a.
Moses did just as the Lord had instructed. And they ascended mount Hor, in the sight of the entire multitude.
28 Musa ya tuɓe taguwar Haruna, ya kuma sa wa Eleyazar ɗan Haruna. Nan kuwa Haruna ya mutu a bisa dutsen. Sa’an nan Musa da Eleyazar suka sauka daga dutsen,
And when he had despoiled Aaron of his vestments, he clothed his son Eleazar with them. And when Aaron had died at the top of the mountain, Moses came down with Eleazar.
29 sa’ad da dukan jama’a kuwa suka ji cewa Haruna ya mutu, sai dukan gidan Isra’ila suka yi makoki dominsa har kwana talatin.
And the entire multitude, seeing that Aaron lay dead, wept over him for thirty days, throughout all their families.
