¹And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.

¹Ja Iisraeli lapsed, terve kogudus, tulid esimeses kuus Siini kõrbe ja rahvas asus Kaadesisse. Seal suri Mirjam ja ta maeti sinna.

²And there was no water for the congregation: and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.

²Kogudusel aga ei olnud vett. Siis nad kogunesid Moosese ja Aaroni vastu.

³And the people strove with Moses, and spake, saying, Would that we had died when our brethren died before Jehovah!

³Ja rahvas riidles Moosesega, nad rääkisid ning ütlesid nõnda: 'Oleksime ometi meiegi hinge heitnud, siis kui meie vennad hinge heitsid Issanda ees!

⁴And why have ye brought the assembly of Jehovah into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our beasts?

⁴Miks tõite Issanda koguduse, meid ja meie loomad, siia kõrbe surema?

⁵And 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.

⁵Miks tõite meid ära Egiptusest, tuues meid siia pahasse paika? Ei ole see vilja ega viigimarja, viinapuu ega granaatõuna paik, ja joomiseks ei ole vett!'

⁶And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tent of meeting, and fell upon their faces: and the glory of Jehovah appeared unto them.

⁶Aga Mooses ja Aaron tulid rahvakogu eest kogudusetelgi ukse ette ja heitsid silmili maha. Siis ilmutas ennast neile Issanda auhiilgus.

⁷And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

⁷Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega, öeldes:

⁸Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes, that it give forth its water; and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock; so thou shalt give the congregation and their cattle drink.

⁸'Võta kepp ja kogu kokku kogudus, sina ja su vend Aaron, ja öelge nende nähes kaljule, et see annaks vett! Sina too neile kaljust vesi välja ning jooda kogudust ja nende loomi!'

⁹And Moses took the rod from before Jehovah, as he commanded him.

⁹Siis Mooses võttis Issanda eest kepi, nagu teda oli kästud.

¹⁰And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; shall we bring you forth water out of this rock?

¹⁰Ja Mooses ja Aaron kogusid koguduse kalju ette; ja ta ütles neile: 'Kuulge nüüd, te vastupanijad! Kas peame tooma teile vee välja sestsamast kaljust?'

¹¹And Moses lifted up his hand, and smote the rock with his rod twice: and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their cattle.

¹¹Siis Mooses tõstis oma käe üles ja lõi oma kepiga kaks korda kaljut, ja palju vett tuli välja ning kogudus ja nende loomad said juua.

¹²And Jehovah said unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed not in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.

¹²Aga Issand ütles Moosesele ja Aaronile: 'Sellepärast et te ei uskunud minusse ega pidanud mind pühaks Iisraeli laste silme ees, ei saa teie viia seda kogudust sellele maale, mille mina neile annan!'

¹³These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with Jehovah, and he was sanctified in them.

¹³See oli Meriba vesi, kus Iisraeli lapsed riidlesid Issandaga ja tema näitas ennast neile pühana.

¹⁴And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:

¹⁴Kaadesist läkitas Mooses käskjalad Edomi kuninga juurde: 'Nõnda ütleb su vend Iisrael: Sina tead kõiki raskusi, mis meid on tabanud,

¹⁵how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and our fathers:

¹⁵et meie vanemad läksid alla Egiptusesse ja me asusime kaua aega Egiptuses ja et egiptlased tegid kurja meile ja meie vanemaile.

¹⁶and when we cried unto Jehovah, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border.

¹⁶Aga me kisendasime Issanda poole ja tema kuulis meie häält ning läkitas ingli, kes tõi meid Egiptusest välja. Ja vaata, me oleme Kaadesis, linnas su maa piiril.

¹⁷Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy land: we will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go along the king's highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy border.

¹⁷Luba meid nüüd oma maast läbi minna! Me ei lähe läbi põldude ega viinamägede ja me ei joo kaevuvett. Me läheme kuningateed mööda ega pöördu paremat või vasakut kätt, kuni oleme läbinud su maa-ala.'

¹⁸And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against thee.

¹⁸Aga Edom vastas temale: 'Sa ei tohi läbi minna! Muidu ma tulen mõõgaga su vastu.'

¹⁹And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go up by the highway; and if we drink of thy water, I and my cattle, then will I give the price thereof: let me only, without [doing] anything [else], pass through on my feet.

¹⁹Ja Iisraeli lapsed ütlesid temale: 'Me läheme maanteed mööda ja kui me joome su vett, mina ja mu loomad, siis ma maksan selle eest. Ei midagi muud, kui et võiksin jala läbi minna!'

²⁰And he said, Thou shalt not pass through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.

²⁰Aga tema vastas: 'Sa ei tohi läbi minna!' Ja Edom läks välja tema vastu hulga rahva ja kindla käega.

²¹Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.

²¹Kui Edom keeldus lubamast Iisraeli oma maa-alast läbi minna, siis Iisrael pöördus temast eemale.

²²And they journeyed from Kadesh: and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came unto mount Hor.

²²Ja nad läksid teele Kaadesist. Ja Iisraeli lapsed, terve kogudus, tulid Hoori mäe juurde.

²³And Jehovah spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,

²³Ja Issand rääkis Moosese ja Aaroniga Hoori mäe juures Edomi maa piiril, öeldes:

²⁴Aaron 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 waters of Meribah.

²⁴'Aaron koristatakse oma rahva juurde, sest ta ei pääse sellele maale, mille ma annan Iisraeli lastele, sellepärast et te Meriba vee juures olite tõrksad mu käsu vastu.

²⁵Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor;

²⁵Võta Aaron ja tema poeg Eleasar ja vii nad Hoori mäele!

²⁶and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered [unto his people], and shall die there.

²⁶Võta Aaronil riided seljast ja pane need selga ta pojale Eleasarile! Aaron koristatakse ära ja ta sureb seal.'

²⁷And Moses did as Jehovah commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.

²⁷Ja Mooses tegi nõnda, nagu Issand käskis, ja nad läksid üles Hoori mäele terve koguduse nähes.

²⁸And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.

²⁸Ja Mooses võttis Aaronil riided seljast ning pani need selga ta pojale Eleasarile. Ja Aaron suri seal mäeharjal, aga Mooses ja Eleasar astusid mäelt alla.

²⁹And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.

²⁹Ja kui terve kogudus nägi, et Aaron oli hinge heitnud, siis nad nutsid Aaroni pärast kolmkümmend päeva, kogu Iisraeli sugu.
