1 Khona abantwana bakoIsrayeli, inhlangano yonke, bafika enkangala yeZini ngenyanga yokuqala; labantu bahlala eKadeshi. UMiriyamu wasefela lapho, wangcwatshwa khona.
Israelfoɔ no duruu Sin ɛserɛ so bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no mu. Wɔsisii wɔn ntomadan wɔ Kades, na ɛhɔ na Miriam wuiɛ ma wɔsiee no.
2 Njalo kwakungelamanzi enhlangano; ngakho bahlangana bamelana loMozisi bamelana loAroni.
Na nsuo a wɔbɛnom nni hɔ enti, nnipa no sɔre tiaa Mose ne Aaron.
3 Abantu baphikisana loMozisi bakhuluma besithi: Kungathi ngabe safa ekufeni kwabafowethu phambi kweNkosi!
Nnipa no bɔɔ Mose soboɔ sɛ, “Sɛ yɛne yɛn nuanom wuwuu wɔ Awurade anim a anka yɛpɛ.
4 Liletheleni ibandla leNkosi enkangala le ukuze sifele lapha, thina lezifuyo zethu?
Mode Awurade ɔman ne yɛn nnwan ne yɛn anantwie aba ɛserɛ yi so sɛ yɛmmewuwu?
5 Lasenyuselani sisuka eGibhithe ukusiletha kulindawo embi? Kakusiyo indawo yenhlanyelo lemikhiwa lamavini lamapomegranati, futhi kakulamanzi okunatha.
Adɛn enti na moyii yɛn firii Misraim de yɛn baa asase bɔne yi so? Borɔdɔma, atokoɔ, bobe ne ateaa nni asase yi so. Nsuo a yɛbɛnom nso nni ha.”
6 UMozisi loAroni basebesuka phambi kwebandla, baya emnyango wethente lenhlangano, bathi mbo ngobuso babo phansi. Inkazimulo yeNkosi yasibonakala kubo.
Mose ne Aaron sɔre kɔɔ Ahyiaeɛ Ntomadan no ano de wɔn anim butubutuu fam wɔ Awurade anim; na wɔhunuu Awurade animuonyam.
7 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ,
8 Thatha intonga, ubuthanise inhlangano, wena loAroni umnewenu, likhulume kulo idwala phambi kwamehlo abo, njalo lizanika amanzi alo; ngalokhu uzabakhuphela amanzi edwaleni, ukuze ulinathise ibandla lezifuyo zabo.
“Momfa Aaron abaa no na wo ne Aaron mfrɛ nnipa no nyinaa. Wɔrehwɛ mo no, kasa kyerɛ ɔbotan a ɛwɔ nohoa no sɛ nsuo mfiri mu mmra. Mobɛnya wɔn nsuo a ɛbɛso wɔne wɔn anantwie afiri ɔbotan no mu!”
9 UMozisi wasethatha intonga esuka phambi kweNkosi njengokumlaya kwayo.
Mose yɛɛ deɛ Awurade kaeɛ no. Ɔfaa abaa no firii baabi a wɔde asie wɔ Awurade anim,
10 UMozisi loAroni basebebuthanisa ibandla phambi kwedwala; wasesithi kubo: Zwanini-ke, lina bahlamuki; sizalikhuphela yini amanzi edwaleni leli?
na Mose ne Aaron frɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa ma wɔbɛboaa ɔbotan no ho na wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Adɔnyɛfoɔ, montie! Yɛmma nsuo mfiri saa ɔbotan yi mu mmra anaa?”
11 UMozisi wasephakamisa isandla sakhe, watshaya idwala kabili ngentonga yakhe; kwasekumpompoza amanzi amanengi, inhlangano yasinatha, lezifuyo zayo.
Afei Mose maa abaa no so de bɔɔ ɔbotan no mprenu maa nsuo bebree firii mu baeɛ maa nnipa no ne wɔn anantwie nomeeɛ.
12 INkosi yasisithi kuMozisi lakuAroni: Ngoba lingangikholwanga, ukungingcwelisa emehlweni abantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngakho kaliyikungenisa ibandla leli elizweni engibanike lona.
Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ, “Esiane sɛ moante me ho wɔ Israelfoɔ no anim no enti, moremfa wɔn nkɔ asase a mehyɛɛ wɔn ho bɔ no so!”
13 La ngamanzi eMeriba, lapho abantwana bakoIsrayeli abaphikisana khona leNkosi, yasingcweliswa kubo.
Wɔfrɛɛ beaeɛ hɔ Meriba a aseɛ ne: Adɔnyɛ Nsuo, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛhɔ ne baabi a Israelfoɔ tee Awurade atua na, ɛhɔ ara nso na Awurade daa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ ɔyɛ kronkron.
14 UMozisi wasethuma izithunywa enkosini yeEdoma zisuka eKadeshi wathi: Utsho njalo umfowenu uIsrayeli: Wena uyazazi zonke inkathazo ezisehleleyo,
Ɛberɛ a Mose wɔ Kades no, ɔsomaa nnipa ma wɔkɔɔ Edomhene nkyɛn sɛ wɔnkɔka nkyerɛ no sɛ: “Saa nkra yi firi wʼabusuafoɔ a wɔyɛ Israelfoɔ nkyɛn. Wonim abɛbrɛsɛ a yɛafa mu,
15 lokuthi obaba behlela eGibhithe, sasesihlala eGibhithe insuku ezinengi; lamaGibhithe asiphatha kubi labobaba.
sɛdeɛ yɛn agyanom kɔtenaa Misraim. Yɛtenaa hɔ mfeɛ bebree na yɛhunuu amane sɛ Misraimfoɔ nkoa.
16 Sasesikhala eNkosini, yasisizwa ilizwi lethu, yathuma ingilosi, yasikhupha eGibhithe; khangela-ke siseKadeshi, umuzi osekucineni komngcele wakho.
Nanso, yɛsu frɛɛ Awurade no, ɔtiee yɛn na ɔsomaa ɔbɔfoɔ ma ɔbɛyii yɛn firii Misraim. “Seesei yɛwɔ Kades wɔ mo asase hyeɛ so.
17 Ake usiyekele sidabule elizweni lakho. Kasiyikudabula ensimini loba esivinini, futhi kasiyikunatha amanzi omthombo. Sizahamba ngomgwaqo wenkosi, kasiyikuphambukela ngakwesokunene langakwesokhohlo, size sedlule umngcele wakho.
Yɛsrɛ mo sɛ, momma yɛntwa mu mfa mo ɔman yi mu. Yɛbɛhwɛ yie sɛ yɛremfa mo mfuo ne mo bobe nturo mu. Na mpo, yɛrennom mo abura mu nsuo. Yɛbɛfa ɔhene kwantempɔn so na yɛremfiri so kɔsi sɛ yɛbɛtra mo hyeɛ a ɛwɔ ɛfa nohoa no.”
18 Kodwa uEdoma wathi kuye: Kawuyikudabula kimi, hlezi ngiphume ngenkemba ngimelane lawe.
Nanso, Edomhene kaa sɛ, “Mommfa mʼasase so, anyɛ saa a mede akodɔm bɛhyia mo!”
19 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesithi kuye: Sizahamba ngomgwaqo omkhulu. Uba-ke mina lezifuyo zami sinatha okwamanzi akho, sizawabhadalela; kuphela ngizadabula ngenyawo zami nje.
Israelfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Owura, yɛbɛfa tempɔn no so. Sɛ yɛn ayɛmmoa nom mo nsuo a, yɛbɛtua ka. Yɛpɛ sɛ yɛtwam wɔ mo asase so na yɛnni adwemmɔne bi.”
20 Kodwa wathi: Kawuyikudabula. UEdoma wasephuma wamelana laye elabantu abanengi, langesandla esilamandla.
Nanso Edomhene buaa sɛ, “Mommfa yɛn asase so!” Ɔboaboaa nʼakodɔm ano de wɔn kɔɔ ɛhyeɛ no so.
21 Ngalokhu uEdoma wala ukuvumela uIsrayeli ukudabula emngceleni wakhe. Ngakho uIsrayeli waphambuka wasuka kuye.
Esiane sɛ Edom amma wɔn ɛkwan amma Israelfoɔ no amfa wɔn ɔman mu no enti, wɔmane faa nkyɛn.
22 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli, inhlangano yonke, basebesuka eKadeshi, bafika entabeni yeHori.
Wɔfirii Kades kɔɔ Bepɔ Hor so.
23 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi lakuAroni entabeni yeHori, emngceleni welizwe leEdoma, isithi:
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron wɔ Bepɔ Hor a ɛwɔ Edom hyeɛ so sɛ,
24 UAroni uzabuthelwa ebantwini bakibo, ngoba kayikungena elizweni engilinike abantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngoba lahlamukela ilizwi lami emanzini eMeriba.
“Ɛberɛ aduru sɛ Aaron wuo, na ɔrenkɔ asase a mede ama Israelfoɔ no so bi, ɛfiri sɛ, mo baanu yɛɛ me dɔm wɔ Meriba nsuo no ho.
25 Thatha uAroni loEleyazare indodana yakhe, ubenyusele entabeni yeHori,
Afei, fa Aaron ne ne babarima Eleasa kɔ Bepɔ Hor so.
26 umhlubule uAroni izembatho zakhe, uzifake kuEleyazare indodana yakhe; ngoba uAroni uzabuthelwa kwabakibo, afele lapho.
Ɛhɔ na wobɛyi Aaron asɔfotadeɛ no de ahyɛ ne babarima Eleasa. Ɛhɔ na Aaron bɛwu na watoa nʼagyanom.”
27 UMozisi wenza njengokulaya kweNkosi. Basebesenyukela entabeni yeHori phambi kwamehlo enhlangano yonke.
Enti, Mose yɛɛ deɛ Awurade hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no. Wɔn baasa nyinaa kɔɔ bepɔ Hor so a nnipa no nyinaa hwɛ wɔn.
28 UMozisi wasemhlubula uAroni izembatho zakhe, wazifaka kuEleyazare indodana yakhe. UAroni wasefela lapho engqongeni yentaba. UMozisi loEleyazare basebesehla entabeni.
Wɔduruu bepɔ no apampam no, Mose yii Aaron asɔfotadeɛ no de hyɛɛ ne babarima Eleasa, na Aaron wuu wɔ bepɔ no apampam. Mose ne Eleasa sane wɔn akyi,
29 Lapho inhlangano yonke ibona ukuthi uAroni usephelile, balilela uAroni insuku ezingamatshumi amathathu, indlu yonke kaIsrayeli.
na wɔbɔɔ nnipa no wu a Aaron awuo no ho amaneɛ no, wɔsuu no adaduasa.
