< Na Helu 20 >
1 A LAILA hele mai la ka poe mamo a Iseraela, o ke anaina kanaka a pau i ka waonahele o Zina, i ka malama mua: a noho iho la na kanaka ma Kadesa; malaila i make ai o Miriama, a ua kanuia iho la ia ma ia wahi.
The children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month. The people stayed in Kadesh. Miriam died there, and was buried there.
2 Aohe wai ilaila no ke anaina kanaka: a hoakoakoa ae la lakou ia lakou iho, a ku e ia Mose laua me Aarona.
There was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3 Hakaka ae la na kanaka me Mose, olelo ae la lakou penei, E aho ko makou make, i ka manawa i make ai na hoahanau o makou imua o Iehova!
The people quarrelled with Moses, and spoke, saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD!
4 No ke aha hoi olua i alakai mai nei i ke anaina kanaka o Iehova iloko o keia waonahele i make ai makou me na holoholona a makou?
Why have you brought the LORD’s assembly into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
5 No ke aha la olua i hoohele mai nei ia makou mai Aigupita mai, e hookomo ai ia makou iloko o keia wahi ino? Aole keia he wahi no na anoano, aohe fiku, aole kumu waina, aole pomeraite, aole hoi wai e inu ai.
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.”
6 Hele aku la o Mose laua o Aarona mai ke alo o ke anaina kanaka aku a ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina, a moe iho la laua ilalo ke alo; a ikea mai la ka nani o Iehova ia laua.
Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces. The LORD’s glory appeared to them.
7 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
8 E lawe oe i ke kookoo, a e hoakoakoa oe i ke anaina kanaka, o oe a me Aarona kou kaikuaana, a e olelo aku olua i ka pohaku imua o na maka o lakou; a e haawi mai ia i kona wai, a e lawe mai oe i ka wai no lakou mailoko mai o ka pohaku: a pela no oe e hooinu ai i ke anaina kanaka, a me ka lakou poe holoholona.
“Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it pour out its water. You shall bring water to them out of the rock; so you shall give the congregation and their livestock drink.”
9 Lawe aku la o Mose i ke kookoo mai ke alo o Iehova aku, e like me kana i kauoha mai ai ia ia.
Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
10 Houluulu ae la o Mose laua o Aarona i ke anaina kanaka imua o ka pohaku, i aku la oia ia lakou, E hoolohe mai oukou, e ka poe kipi; pono anei no maua e hookahe iho i ka wai mailoko mai o keia pohaku?
Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels! Shall we bring water out of this rock for you?”
11 Kaikai ae la o Mose i kona lima iluna, hahau iho la i ka pohaku, me kona kookoo, elua hahau ana; a kahe nui mai la ka wai: inu iho la ke anaina kanaka a me ko lakou poe holoholona.
Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice, and water came out abundantly. The congregation and their livestock drank.
12 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona, No ko olua manaoio ole mai ia'u, e hoauo mai ia'u imua o na mamo a Iseraela, nelaila, aole olua e kai aku i keia anaina kanaka i ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai no lakou.
The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you didn’t 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.”
13 O keia ka wai no Meriba; no ka mea, ua aaka mai na mamo a Iseraela me Iehova, a ua hoanoia oia ia lakou.
These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
14 Hoouna aku la o Mose i na elele mai Kadesa aku i ke alii o Edoma, Penei ka ka hoahanau ou, ka Iseraela e olelo aku nei, Ua ike no oe i ka luhi a pau i loaa ia makou;
Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, saying: “Your brother Israel says: You know all the travail that has happened to us;
15 I ka iho ana o ko makou poe kupuna ilalo i Aigupita, a he liuliu ko makou noho ana i Aigupita; a hoopilikia mai ko Aigupita ia makou a me ko makou poe kupuna.
how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time. The Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers.
16 A i a wa i hea aku ai makou ia Iehova, hoolohe mai la oia i ko makou leo, a hoouna mai la i anela, a ua hoopuka mai ia makou iwaho o Aigupita: eia hoi makou ma Kadesa nei, he kulanakauhale ma ke kihi loa o kou palena.
When we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice, sent an angel, and brought us out of Egypt. Behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the edge of your border.
17 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe ia makou e hele aku mawaena o kou aina: aole makou e hele mawaena o na mahinaai, aole hoi mawaena o na pawaina, aole hoi makou e inu i ka wai o na punawai; e hele no makou ma ke alaloa o ke alii, aole makou e kipa ma ka akau, aole hoi ma ka hema, a hala aku makou i na palena ou.
“Please let us pass through your land. We will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink from the water of the wells. We will go along the king’s highway. We will not turn away to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border.”
18 I mai la o Edoma ia ia, Mai hele ae oe ma o'u nei o hele aku au e ku e ia oe me ka pahikaua.
Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
19 I aku la ka poe mamo a Iseraela ia ia, E hele no makou ma ke alaloa, a iua e inu au a me ko'u poe holoholona i kou wai, alaila e uku aku no au ia mea: e hele wale no makou ma ko makou mau wawae, aole e hana i kekahi mea e ae.
The children of Israel said to him, “We will go up by the highway; and if we drink your water, I and my livestock, then I will give its price. Only let me, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet.”
20 I mai la kela, Aole loa oe e hele mawaena mai. A puka mai la ko Edoma e ku e mai ia ia, me na kanaka he nui loa, a me ka lima ikaika.
He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
21 Pela no o Edoma i hoole mai ai i ka haawi ana i alanui no ka Iseraela mawaena o kona palena: no ia mea, haliu ae la ka Iseraela mai ona aku la.
Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
22 Hele aku la na mamo a Iseraela, o ke anaina kanaka a pau, mai Kadesa aku a hiki i ke kuahiwi o Hora.
They travelled from Kadesh, and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
23 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona ma ke kuahiwi o Hora, ma ka palena aina o Edoma, i mai la,
The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
24 E hui pu ia'ku o Aarona me kona poe kanaka: aole ia e komo i ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai no na mamo a Iseraela, no ka mea, ua ku e mai olua i ka'u olelo ma ka wai Meriba.
“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.
25 E lawe oe ia Aarona a me kana keiki o Eleazara, e kai aku ia laua maluna ma ko kuahiwi o Hora.
Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
26 E wehe ae i ka aahu o Aarona, a e hookomo i kana keiki ia Eleazara: a e hui pu ia'ku o Aarona, a e make no ia malaila.
and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron shall be gathered, and shall die there.”
27 Hana iho la o Mose e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai: a pii aku la laua ma ke kuahiwi o Hora imua o ke anaina kanaka a pau.
Moses did as the LORD commanded. They went up onto Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 Wehe ae la o Mose i na aahu o Aarona, a hoaahu ae la maluna o kana keiki o Eleazara: a make iho la o Aarona malaila ma kahi oi o ke kuahiwi: a iho iho la o Mose laua o Eleazara mai ke kuahiwi mai.
Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron died there on the top of the mountain, and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
29 A ike aku la ke anaina kanaka a pau, na make o Aarona, kanikau iho la ka Iseraela a pau ia Aarona i na la he kanakolu.
When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
