Ọnụọgụgụ 20

1 Ụmụ Izrel, bụ nzukọ ahụ niile rutere nʼọzara Zin nʼọnwa nke mbụ. Ha manyere ụlọ ha na Kadesh. Ọ bụkwa nʼebe ahụ ka Miriam nwụrụ. E lie ya.

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.

2 Ma mmiri ọṅụṅụ adịghị nye ndị nzukọ ahụ. Ya mere na ha gbakọtara imegide Mosis na Erọn.

And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.

3 Ha sesịrị Mosis okwu sị, “Ọ gaara akara anyị mma ma a sị na anyị nwụrụ mgbe ụmụnna anyị nwụrụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.

And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD!

4 Gịnị mere i ji kpọbata ọgbakọ nke Onyenwe anyị nʼime ọzara a, ime ka anyị na anụ ụlọ anyị niile nwụọ nʼebe a?

And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there?

5 Gịnị mere i ji si nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta anyị, kpọbata anyị nʼebe ọjọọ a? O nweghị mkpụrụ ọghịgha maọbụ fiig, enweghị mkpụrụ vaịnị maọbụ mkpụrụ pomegranet. Ọ dịghị mmiri dị nke ha ga-aṅụ.”

And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto 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 Mosis na Erọn si nʼebe ọgbakọ ahụ nọ tụgharịa gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute, daa kpụọ ihu ha nʼala. E mee ka ha hụ ebube Onyenwe anyị anya.

And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them.

7 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

8 “Were mkpara ahụ, gị na nwanne gị Erọn kpọkọta nzukọ Izrel niile. Gwa nkume ahụ okwu nʼihu ha, ọ ga-asọpụta mmiri ya. Unu ga-eme ka mmiri si na nkume ahụ sọpụta nye ọgbakọ ahụ, ka ha na igwe anụ ụlọ ha, ṅụọ mmiri.”

Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink.

9 Ya mere Mosis sitere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị weere mkpara ahụ dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere ya si dị.

And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.

10 Emesịa, Mosis na Erọn kpọkọtara ụmụ Izrel niile nʼihu nkume ahụ. Mgbe ha bịaruru nso, Mosis gwara ha okwu sị ha, “Geenụ ntị unu ndị nnupu isi! Ọ bụ site na nkume a ka anyị ga-enye unu mmiri?”

And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?

11 Mgbe ahụ Mosis weliri aka ya elu jiri mkpara ahụ tie nkume ahụ ugboro abụọ. Mmiri sitere na ya sọpụta. Ọgbakọ Izrel niile na igwe anụ ụlọ ha ṅụkwara mmiri.

And Moses lifted up 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].

12 Ma Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị, “Ebe ọ bụ na unu jụrụ ikwenye nʼokwu m, jụkwa ido m nsọ nʼihu ndị Izrel niile, unu agaghị edubata ọgbakọ ndị a nʼala ahụ m na-aga inye ha.”

And the LORD spake unto 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.

13 A kpọrọ ebe ahụ mmiri Meriba, nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼebe ahụ ka Izrel wesoro Onyenwe anyị iwe. O gosikwara ha ịdị nsọ ya.

This [ is] the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.

14 Mosis sitere nʼọzara Kadesh, zipụ ndị ozi ka ha gakwuru eze Edọm, sị ya, “Otu a ka nwanne gị bụ Izrel na-ekwu: Ị nụla akụkọ ihe nhụju anya niile dakwasịrị anyị.

And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:

15 Nna anyị gara biri nʼala Ijipt. Anyị biri nʼebe ahụ ọtụtụ afọ. Ndị Ijipt mekpara anyị na nna nna anyị ha ahụ.

How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:

16 Ma mgbe anyị tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa, ọ nụrụ akwa anyị, zitere anyị mmụọ ozi ya, onye dupụtara anyị site nʼala Ijipt. “Ugbu a, anyị nọ na Kadesh obodo dị nso nʼoke ala gị.

And when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and hath brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we [are] in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border:

17 Biko kwere ka anyị si nʼala gị gafee. Anyị ga-akpachara anya hụ na anyị esiteghị nʼubi ihe ọkụkụ gị maọbụ nʼubi vaịnị gị gafee. Anyị agaghị aṅụ mmiri ọbụla site nʼolulu mmiri gị. Anyị ga-anọgide naanị nʼokporoụzọ eze. Anyị agaghị ahapụ ya, chee ihu akụkụ aka nri maọbụ aka ekpe, tutu ruo mgbe anyị gafechara oke ala gị.”

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.

18 Ma eze Edọm zara sị, “Unu amanyela ụkwụ; ọ bụrụ na unu anwaa anwa bata nʼala m, aga m eji ndị agha m zute unu.”

And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.

19 Ma ndị Izrel zara ozi o ziri sị ya, “Ọ bụ naanị nʼokporoụzọ ka anyị ga-esi gafee. Ọ bụrụ na anyị maọbụ anụ ụlọ anyị a ṅụọ mmiri dị nʼala gị, anyị ga-akwụ ọnụahịa ya. Naanị mkpa anyị bụ ịgafe. Ọ dịghị ihe ọzọ anyị chọrọ.”

And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the high way: 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.

20 Ma eze Edọm aṅaghị ntị, ọ gwaghere ha ọnụ sị, “Unu agaghị esite nʼala gabiga.” Edọm chịkọtara ọtụtụ ndị agha dị ike duru ha pụọ ịga izute ha.

And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.

21 Ebe ọ bụ na ndị Edọm ekweghị ka ndị Izrel si nʼoke ala ha gafee, ndị Izrel tụgharịrị azụ hapụ isi ụzọ ahụ.

Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.

22 Ọgbakọ Izrel niile sitere na Kadesh bulie ije gagide rute nʼugwu Hor.

And the children of Israel, [even] the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor.

23 Nʼugwu Hor, nʼoke ala Edọm, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị ha,

And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,

24 “Oge eruola mgbe Erọn ga-anwụ. Ọ gaghị abanye nʼala ahụ m nyere ụmụ Izrel, nʼihi na unu abụọ nupuru isi nʼiwu m na mmiri Meriba.

Aaron shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.

25 Ugbu a, kpọrọ Erọn na nwa ya nwoke Elieza, duru ha gaa nʼugwu Hor.

Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor:

26 Nʼebe ahụ ka ị ga-eyipụ Erọn uwe onye nchụaja o yi, yikwasị ha Elieza nwa ya nwoke. Ọ bụkwa nʼebe ahụ ka Erọn ga-anọ nwụọ.”

And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered [unto his people], and shall die there.

27 Ya mere Mosis mere dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya iwu. Ha atọ rigoro nʼugwu Hor mgbe nzukọ Izrel niile nọ na-ele ha anya.

And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.

28 Mgbe ha ruru nʼelu ugwu ahụ, Mosis yipụrụ Erọn uwe onye nchụaja ya yikwasị ha nwa ya nwoke Elieza. Erọn nọkwa nʼebe ahụ, nʼelu ugwu ahụ nwụọ. Emesịa, Mosis na Elieza tụgharịrị site nʼugwu ahụ lọghachi.

And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.

29 Mgbe ọgbakọ Izrel nụrụ ihe banyere ọnwụ Erọn ha ruru ụjụ nʼihi ya iri ụbọchị atọ.

And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, [even] all the house of Israel.
