Tirintii 20
1 Oo reer binu Israa'iil, xataa shirkii oo dhammu waxay cidladii Sin yimaadeen bishii kowaad. Markaasaa dadkii waxay degeen Qaadeesh, oo Maryanna halkaasay ku dhimatay, oo halkaasaa lagu aasay.
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 Oo shirkiina biyo ma haysan, oo markaasay Muuse iyo Haaruun u wada shireen.
There was no water for the people to drink there, so they came to Aaron and Moses/me.
3 Kolkaasaa dadkii Muuse la dirireen, wayna la hadleen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Waxaa noo roonayd inaannu walaalahayo iskala dhimanno markay Rabbiga hortiisa ku dhinteen!
They complained and said, “We wish that we had died in front of Yahweh’s Sacred Tent when our fellow Israelis died!
4 Bal maxaad shirka Rabbiga cidladan u keenteen si aan annaga iyo lo'dayaduba halkan ugu wada dhimanno?
(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 Oo maxaadse dalkii Masar nooga soo bixiseen, oo aad meeshan sharka ah noo keenteen? Waayo, meeshanu ma aha meel laga helo midho, ama berde, ama geedcanab, amase rummaanno; oo biyo la cabbona laguma arko.
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 Markaasay Muuse iyo Haaruun ururka hortiisii uga tageen iriddii teendhadii shirka, kolkaasay wejiga dhulka dhigeen, oo waxaa iyagii u muuqatay ammaantii Rabbiga.
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 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
and he said to Moses/me,
8 Usha qaado, oo adiga iyo walaalkaa Haaruun dadka shirka ah oo dhan soo shiriya, oo iyagoo arkaya dhagaxa la hadla, biyo ha soo daayee; oo waa inaad iyaga dhagaxa biyo uga keentaa, si aad u wada waraabisid shirka iyo lo'doodaba.
“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 Markaasaa Muuse ushii ka qaatay Rabbiga hortiisa, siduu isaga ugu amray.
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 Kolkaasay Muuse iyo Haaruun ururkii oo dhan ku soo ururiyeen dhagaxa hortiisii, oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, War bal maqla, caasiyiin yahay. Dhagaxan biyo ma idiinka soo daynaa?
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 Kolkaasaa Muuse gacanta kor u qaaday, oo dhagaxii ayuu ushiisii laba jeer ku dhuftay; oo waxaa ka soo baxay biyo aad u badan, oo shirkii iyo lo'doodiiba way wada cabbeen.
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 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse iyo Haaruun ku yidhi, Idinku ima aydaan rumaysan, oo quduusna igama aydaan dhigin reer binu Israa'iil hortooda, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed idinku shirkan geeyn maysaan dalkii aan iyaga siiyey.
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 Kuwanu waa biyihii Meriibaah, maxaa yeelay, reer binu Israa'iil way la dirireen Rabbiga, oo wuxuu iyaga tusay inuu quduus yahay.
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 Markaasaa Muuse kuwa farriin wada Qaadeesh uga diray boqorkii reer Edom, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Annagoo ah walaalahaa ilma Israa'iil waxaannu kugu leennahay, Waad garanaysaa dhibkii nagu soo dhacay oo dhan,
[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 iyo sida awowayaashayo dalkii Masar u tageen, iyo inaannu Masar wakhti dheer degganayn. Masriyiintu aad iyo aad bay noo xumeeyeen annaga iyo awowayaashayoba.
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 Oo markaannu Rabbiga u qayshannay, codkayagii wuu maqlay, oo wuxuu noo soo diray malaa'ig, oo Masarna wuu naga soo bixiyey, oo haddana waxaannu joognaa Qaadeesh oo ah magaalo ku taal soohdintaada darafkeeda.
“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 Waan ku baryayaaye, na daa aan dalkaaga dhex marnee. Kaa dhex mari mayno berrin ama beercanab, oo ceelasha biyahoodana ka cabbi mayno. Waxaannu iska maraynaa boqorka waddadiisa oo ugu leexan mayno xagga midigta ama xagga bidixda jeeraannu soohdintaada ka baxno.
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 Markaasaa boqorkii Edom wuxuu ku yidhi, Dalkayga waa inaanad soo dhex marin yaanan seef kuula soo bixine.
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 Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waddada weyn baannu iska maraynaa, oo annaga iyo lo'dayaduba haddaannu biyo kaa cabno qiimahooda waannu ku siinaynaa, haddaba annagoo aan innaba wax kale samayn aan dalkaaga cagaha ku dhex marno.
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 Oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Dalkayga soo dhex mari maysaan. Markaasaa boqorkii Edom wuxuu u soo baxay reer binu Israa'iil isagoo gacan xoog leh dad badan ku wata.
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 Oo sidaasuu boqorkii Edom ugu diiday reer binu Israa'iil inay soohdintiisa soo dhex maraan, oo saas aawadeed reer binu Israa'iil isagii way ka leexdeen.
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 Oo Qaadeesh way ka guureen, oo reer binu Israa'iil xataa shirkii oo dhammu waxay yimaadeen Buur Xor.
The Israeli people left Kadesh. They went to Hor Mountain,
23 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse iyo Haaruun kula hadlay Buur Xor oo ku ag taal soohdinta dalka Edom oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
[which is at the border of Edom]. While they were there, Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
24 Haaruun wuxuu ku darman doonaa dadkiisii, waayo, isagu geli maayo dalkii aan siiyey reer binu Israa'iil, maxaa yeelay, hadalkaygii waad ku caasideen markaad biyihii Meriibaah ag joogteen.
“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 Haddaba Haaruun iyo wiilkiisa Elecaasaar soo wad, oo waxaad iyaga keentaa Buur Xor.
Now you, Moses, take Aaron and his son Eleazar up on Hor Mountain.
26 Oo markaas Haaruun dharkiisa ka bixi oo waxaad u gelisaa wiilkiisa Elecaasaar, oo Haaruun dadkiisa wuu ku darman doonaa, oo halkaasuu ku dhiman doonaa.
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 Markaasaa Muuse sameeyey sidii Rabbigu ku amray, oo waxay fuuleen Buur Xor iyadoo shirkii oo dhammu ay u jeedaan.
So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. The three of them/us climbed up Hor Mountain, while all the Israeli people watched.
28 Markaasaa Muuse Haaruun ka bixiyey dharkiisii, oo wuxuu u geliyey wiilkiisii Elecaasaar, markaasaa Haaruun ku dhintay halkaas oo ahaa buurtii dhaladeeda; kolkaasay Muuse iyo Elecaasaar buurtii ka soo degeen.
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 Oo markii shirkii oo dhammu ay arkeen in Haaruun dhintay ayaa reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay Haaruun u ooyeen intii soddon maalmood ah.
When the Israeli people realized that Aaron had died, they all mourned for him for 30 days.
