Ceturtā Mozus 20
1 Un pirmā mēnesī visa Israēla bērnu draudze nāca Cin tuksnesī, un tie ļaudis apmetās Kādešā, un Mirjame tur nomira un tapa tur aprakta.
In March/April [of the next year], the Israeli people traveled/walked to the Zin Desert and (camped/set up their tents) near Kadesh [town]. While they/we were there, [Moses’/my older sister] Miriam died and was buried there.
2 Un tai draudzei nebija ūdens; tad tie sapulcējās pret Mozu un pret Āronu.
There was no water for the people to drink there, so they came to Aaron and Moses/me.
3 Un tie ļaudis strīdējās ar Mozu un runāja sacīdami: kaut būtu bojā gājuši, kad mūsu brāļi bojā gāja priekš Tā Kunga!
They complained and said, “We wish that we had died in front of Yahweh’s Sacred Tent when our fellow Israelis died!
4 Kāpēc jūs esat veduši Tā Kunga draudzi uz šo tuksnesi, ka še mums un mūsu lopiem jāmirst?
(Did you bring us, who are Yahweh’s people, into this desert to die along with our livestock?/You brought us, who are Yahweh’s people, into this desert to die along with our livestock!) [RHQ]
5 Un kāpēc jūs mūs esat izveduši no Ēģiptes zemes un mūs atveduši šai posta vietā? tā nav sējama vieta, nedz vīģu nedz vīnu dārzu nedz granātābolu vieta, te arī ūdens nav, ko dzert.
Why did you bring us from Egypt to this miserable place [RHQ]? There is no grain, there are no figs, no grapes, and no pomegranates here. And there is no water for us to drink!”
6 Tad Mozus un Ārons gāja no tās draudzes pie saiešanas telts durvīm un metās uz savu vaigu; un Tā Kunga godība viņiem parādījās.
Aaron and Moses/I turned away from the people and went to the entrance of the Sacred Tent and prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground. Then Yahweh appeared to them/us with his bright glory,
7 Tad Tas Kungs runāja uz Mozu un sacīja:
and he said to Moses/me,
8 Ņem to zizli un salpulcini to draudzi, tu un Ārons, tavs brālis, un runājiet uz to klinti priekš viņu acīm, tad tā dos ūdeni; tā tu viņiem izdabūsi ūdeni no klints un dzirdināsi to draudzi un viņas lopus.
“You and Aaron must take Aaron’s walking stick with you and gather all the people together. While the people are watching, command that water will flow out of that [large] rock over there. Water for the people will flow from it; all they and all their livestock will have enough water to drink.”
9 Tad Mozus ņēma to zizli no Tā Kunga priekšas, kā Viņš tam bija pavēlējis.
So Moses/I did what Yahweh told him/me to do. He/I took Aaron’s walking stick from the place in the Sacred Tent where it was kept.
10 Un Mozus un Ārons sapulcēja to draudzi pie tās klints, un viņš uz tiem sacīja: klausāties jel, jūs pārgalvji, vai mēs jums izdabūsim ūdeni no šīs klints?
Then Aaron and he/I summoned all the people to gather at the rock. Then Moses/I shouted to them, “All you rebellious people, listen! Is it necessary for us to give you water from this rock?”
11 Tad Mozus pacēla savu roku un sita to klinti ar savu zizli divreiz, tad iznāca daudz ūdens ārā, tā ka tā draudze un viņas lopi dzēra.
Then Moses/I raised his/my hand and [instead of speaking to the rock], he/I struck the rock two times with the walking stick. And water gushed/poured out. So all the people and their livestock drank all the water that they wanted.
12 Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu un Āronu, tādēļ ka jūs Man neesat ticējuši un Mani neesat svētījuši priekš Israēla bērnu acīm, tādēļ jūs šo draudzi neievedīsiet tai zemē, ko Es tiem esmu devis.
But Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me, “You did not believe that I could demonstrate my power to the Israeli people [and give them water without your striking the rock]. So you will not lead them into the land that I am giving to them!”
13 Šis ir tas Meribas (strīdus) ūdens, kur Israēla bērni ar To Kungu strīdējās, un Viņš pie tiem svēts parādījās.
Later this place was called Meribah, [which means ‘arguing’], because there the Israeli people argued with Yahweh, and there he showed his power to them [by giving them water].
14 Tad Mozus sūtīja vēstnešus no Kādešas pie Edoma ķēniņa: tā saka tavs brālis Israēls: tu zini visas tās bēdas, kas mums uzgājušas,
[While the people were] at Kadesh [town], Moses/I sent messengers to the king of Edom to tell him this: “Your relatives, the Israeli people, are sending you this message. You know the many troubles/hardships that have happened to us.
15 Ka mūsu tēvi ir nogājuši uz Ēģiptes zemi, un ka mēs ilgu laiku esam dzīvojuši Ēģiptes zemē, un ka ēģiptieši mums un mūsu tēviem ir ļaunu darījuši.
You know that our ancestors went down to Egypt. You know that they stayed there for many years. They suffered because the [rulers of] Egypt caused them to become their slaves [and to work very hard].
16 Tad mēs brēcām uz To Kungu, un Viņš klausīja mūsu balsi un sūtīja eņģeli un mūs izveda no Ēģiptes zemes, un redzi, mēs esam Kādešas pilsētā tavu robežu malā.
“But when they called out to Yahweh, he heard them and sent an angel who brought them out of Egypt. Now we have set up our tents here at Kadesh, a town at the border of your land.
17 Ļauj mums iet caur tavu zemi; mēs neiesim pār druvām, ne caur vīna dārziem, nedz dzersim ūdeni no akām, pa lielceļu mēs iesim un negriezīsimies ne pa labo ne pa kreiso roku, tiekams būsim izgājuši caur tavām robežām.
Please allow us to travel through your country. We will [be careful to] not walk through your fields and your vineyards. We will not even drink water from your wells. As we travel, we will stay on the king’s highway, [the main road that goes from the south to the north], and we will not leave that road until we have crossed the border [of your country in the north].”
18 Bet Edoms uz to sacīja: tev nebūs iet caur mums, citādi es tev iziešu pretī ar zobenu.
But the king of Edom refused. He replied, “Stay out of my country! If you try [to enter it], I will [send my army to] attack you!”
19 Tad Israēla bērni sacīja uz viņu: pa lielceļu mēs iesim, un ja dzersim no tava ūdens, mēs ar saviem lopiem, tad par to dosim maksu; cita nekā negribam kā kājām iet cauri.
The Israeli messengers replied, “[If we travel through your country], we will stay on the main road. If we and any of our livestock drink any of your water, we will pay for it. We want only to travel through your country. We do not want anything else.”
20 Un viņš sacīja: tev nebūs iet cauri! Un Edoms viņam izgāja pretī ar varenu pulku un stipru roku.
But the king replied, “No! Stay out of our country! We will not [allow you] to travel through our land!” Then he sent the strongest soldiers in his army to prevent the Israelis [from entering his country].
21 Tā Edoms Israēlim aizliedza un viņam neļāva iet caur savām robežām; un Israēls griezās nost no viņa.
So, because [the king of] Edom refused to allow the Israelis to travel through his country, the Israelis turned [and traveled a different way].
22 Un tie aizgāja no Kādešas, un visa Israēla bērnu draudze nāca pie Hora kalna.
The Israeli people left Kadesh. They went to Hor Mountain,
23 Tad Tas Kungs runāja uz Mozu un Āronu pie Hora kalna, pie Edoma zemes robežām, sacīdams:
[which is at the border of Edom]. While they were there, Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
24 Āronam būs tapt piepulcinātam pie saviem ļaudīm, jo viņš nenāks tai zemē, ko Es dodu Israēla bērniem, tāpēc ka jūs Manam vārdam esat pretī turējušies pie strīdus ūdens.
“It is time for Aaron to die [EUP]. He will not enter the land that I am giving to you Israelis, because the two of you disobeyed me [when I told you to speak to the rock to cause] the water [to flow] at Meribah.
25 Ņem Āronu un viņa dēlu Eleazaru, un ved tos augšā uz Hora kalnu.
Now you, Moses, take Aaron and his son Eleazar up on Hor Mountain.
26 Un novelc Āronam viņa drēbes un apvelc tās Eleazaram, viņa dēlam, jo Ārons tur taps piepulcināts un nomirs.
There you must remove Aaron’s robes [that he wears when he does the work of a priest], and put them on his son, Eleazar. Aaron will die up there.”
27 Tad Mozus darīja, itin kā Tas Kungs bija pavēlējis. Un tie uzkāpa uz Hora kalnu priekš visas draudzes acīm.
So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. The three of them/us climbed up Hor Mountain, while all the Israeli people watched.
28 Un Mozus Āronam novilka viņa drēbes un tās apvilka Eleazaram, viņa dēlam.
At the top of the mountain, Moses/I took off the robes that Aaron wore [while he did the work of a priest] and put them on Eleazar. Then Aaron died there on the top of the mountain, and Eleazar and Moses/I went back down.
29 Un Ārons tur nomira, tā kalna galā; tad Mozus un Eleazars nāca no kalna zemē. Kad nu visa draudze redzēja Āronu esam nomirušu, tad viss Israēla nams Āronu apraudāja trīsdesmit dienas.
When the Israeli people realized that Aaron had died, they all mourned for him for 30 days.
