Oekyuk 20

1 Ke malem se meet, sruf nukewa lun Israel tuku nu yen mwesis Zin ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Kadesh. Na Miriam el misa ac pukpuki we.

And the children of Israel, the whole assembly, came into the wilderness of Zin, in the first month; and the people abode at Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.

2 Wangin kof ke acn elos aktuktuk we. Ke ma inge mwet uh tukeni nu yorol Moses ac Aaron

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

3 ac torkaskas fahk, “Kut funu wi mwet Israel wiasr misa na ye mutun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD, lukun wona!

And the people contended with Moses, and spoke, saying, Would that we had died when our brethren died before Jehovah!

4 Efu komtal ku uskutme nu yen mwesis se inge? Mea, tuh kut ac kosro natusr uh in misa we?

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

5 Efu komtal ku uskutme liki acn Egypt nu yen na koluk se inge? Wangin ma ku in kapak fin acn se inge. Wangin wheat, ku fig, ku grape, ku pomegranate — finne kof in nimnim, wangin pac!”

And why have ye made us to go up out of 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.

6 Moses ac Aaron som liki mwet uh ac tu ke acn in utyak lun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal. Eltal faksufi, ac kalem wolana lun LEUM GOD sikyak nu selos.

And Moses and Aaron went from before the congregation to the entrance of the tent of meeting, and fell upon their faces; and the glory of Jehovah appeared to them.

7 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

8 “Srukak sikal soko ma oan ke mutun Tuptup in Wuleang, na kom ac Aaron pangoneni un mwet Israel nukewa. Ye mutalos nukewa komtal fah sap nu ke eot se meet oh ingo, na kof uh fah sororma liki eot sac. In lumah se inge kom fah sang kof liki eot sac nimen mwet uh ac oayapa kosro natulos.”

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

9 Moses el som ac eis sikal soko ah oana LEUM GOD El sapkin.

And Moses took the staff from before Jehovah, as he had commanded him.

10 Na el ac Aaron pangoneni mwet Israel nukewa nu ke mutun eot sac, ac Moses el fahk, “Porongeyu, kowos mwet tunyuna! Ya kut ac oru tuh kof uh in tuku liki eot se inge nu suwos?”

And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said to them, Hear now, ye rebels: shall we bring forth to you water out of this rock?

11 Moses el kolak sikal soko ah, ac sang sringilya eot sac pacl luo, na kof na lulap se asrma, ac mwet nukewa, wi kosro uh, nim.

And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his staff smote the rock twice, and much water came out, and the assembly drank, and their beasts.

12 Tusruktu LEUM GOD El sang kas in kai nu sel Moses ac Aaron. El fahk, “Ke sripen srikla lulalfongi lomtal in fahkak kalem ke ku mutal luk ye mutun mwet Israel, komtal ac tia kololos nu in acn se ma nga wuleang in sang lalos.”

And Jehovah said to Moses and to Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to hallow me before the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land that I have given them.

13 Ma inge sikyak Meribah, yen se mwet Israel uh torkaskas lain LEUM GOD we, ac yen se LEUM GOD El akkalemye nu selos lah El mutal.

These are the waters of Meribah, where the children of Israel contended with Jehovah, and he hallowed himself in them.

14 Moses el supwala mwet utuk kas Kadesh lac nu yurin tokosra lun acn Edom. Elos fahk, “Siyuk se inge ma sin mwet wiom, mwet Israel. Kom etu lupan mwe keok ma sikyak nu sesr uh,

And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, Thus says thy brother Israel: Thou knowest all the trouble that hath befallen us,

15 ke mwet matu lasr tuh som nu Egypt, acn se kut tuh muta we ke yac puspis. Mwet Egypt uh orekut ac mwet matu lasr uh arulana koluk.

how our fathers went down to Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time, and the Egyptians evil entreated us and our fathers;

16 Na kut wowoyak tung nu sin LEUM GOD ac siyuk ke kasru. El lohng tung lasr ac supwama lipufan se, su pwenkutme liki acn Egypt. Inge kut oasr Kadesh, sie acn ma oan sisken masrol nu ke facl sum uh.

and when we cried to Jehovah, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and brought us forth out of Egypt; and behold, we are at Kadesh, a city at the extremity of thy border.

17 Nunak munas, lela nu sesr in fahsr sasla in acn sum. Kut, ac cow natusr, fah tia kuhfla liki inkanek lulap in utyak nu in ima lom ku ima in grape sunom, ac kut ac fah tia nim kof ke lufin kof lowos uh. Kut ac fahsr na fin inkanek lulap ah, nwe ke kut alukela facl sum uh.”

Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country; we will not pass through fields, or through vineyards, neither will we drink water out of the wells: we will go by the king's road; we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy border.

18 Tokosra lun mwet Edom el topuk ac fahk, “Nga tia lelu kowos in fahsr sasla facl sesr uh! Kowos fin srike in oru, kut ac illa mweuni kowos.”

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

19 Na mwet Israel uh fahk, “Kut ac fahsr na ke innek lulap uh, na kut, ku kosro natusr uh, fin nim kutena kof ke facl sum, kut fah moli. Pwayena ma kut enenu pa kut in fahla sasla facl sum uh.”

And the children of Israel said to him, We will go by the high way; and if we drink of thy water, I and my cattle, then I will pay for it: I will only, without anything else, go through on my feet.

20 Na tokosra sac sifilpa fahk, “Mo! Kut tiana lela!” Na mwet Edom elos illa ke un mwet mweun na lulap ac ku se in mweuni mwet Israel.

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

21 Ke sripen mwet Edom uh tia lela mwet Israel in fahla fin acn selos, na mwet Israel forla ac ut ke sokona inkanek.

Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his territory; and Israel turned away from him.

22 Mwet Israel nukewa mukuiyak liki acn Kadesh ac tuku nu Fineol Hor,

And they removed from Kadesh; and the children of Israel, the whole assembly, came to mount Hor.

23 nu ke masrol lun acn Edom. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses ac Aaron,

And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron in mount Hor, on the border of the land of Edom, saying,

24 “Aaron el ac tia wi ilyak nu in facl se su nga wulela in sang nu sin mwet Israel. El ac misa ke sripen komtal tuh lain ma nga sapkin in acn Meribah.

Aaron shall be gathered unto his peoples; for he shall not enter into the land that I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my commandment at the waters of Meribah.

25 Eisal Aaron ac Eleazar wen natul, ac utyak nu Fineol Hor.

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

26 Na sarukla nuknuk loeloes lun mwet tol lal Aaron we, ac sang nokmulang Eleazar. Aaron el ac misa ingo.”

and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron shall be gathered [to his peoples], and shall die there.

27 Moses el oru oana ke LEUM GOD El sapkin. Eltal fanyak nu Fineol Hor ye mutun mwet Israel nukewa.

And Moses did as Jehovah had commanded, and they went up mount Hor before the eyes of the whole assembly.

28 Ac Moses el sarukla nuknuk in mwet tol lal Aaron ac sang nokmulang Eleazar. Na Aaron el misa ingo fin mangon eol uh, ac Moses ac Eleazar tufoki liki fineol uh.

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

29 Ke mwet Israel elos lohngak lah Aaron el misa, elos nukewa tung ac eoksra kacl ke len tolngoul.

And the whole assembly saw that Aaron was dead, and they mourned for Aaron thirty days, [even] the whole house of Israel.
