1The children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month: and the people stayed in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
1 Jiiro handu sintina ra, Israyla izey jama kulu furo Zin ganjo ra. Borey zumbu ka goro Kades. Noodin no Maryama bu, i n'a fiji mo noodin.
2There was no water for the congregation: and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
2 Noodin mo hari si no kaŋ jama ga haŋ. I na care margu ka yanje nda Musa nda Haruna.
3The people strove with Moses, and spoke, saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before Yahweh!
3 Jama binde deeni Musa gaa. I goono ga ne: «A bisa iri se iri ma bu ganjo ra waato kaŋ iri nya-izey bu Rabbi jine.
4Why have you brought the assembly of Yahweh into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
4 Ifo se no araŋ kande Rabbi jama ne ganji woone ra, nangu kaŋ iri ga bu, iri nd'iri almaney?
5Why have you made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in 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.”
5 Ifo se no binde araŋ n'iri fattandi iri ma fun Misira ra, ka kande iri ne, nangu yaamo wo ra? Neewo boro si fari te, jeejay nyayaŋ si no ne, wala reyzin kali, wala garenad* nyayaŋ. Woodin banda, hari kaŋ ga haŋ si no.»
6Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces: and the glory of Yahweh appeared to them.
6 Musa nda Haruna fun jama jine ka ye kubayyaŋ hukumo meyo gaa, ka ganda biri. Kala Rabbi darza bangay i se.
7Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
7 Rabbi salaŋ Musa se ka ne:
8“Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it give forth its water; and you shall bring forth to them water out of the rock; so you shall give the congregation and their livestock drink.”
8 «Sambu goobo, nin nda ni beero Haruna, ka jama margu. Araŋ ma kay nangu fo kaŋ jama kulu ga di, ka salaŋ tondo se hal a ma nga haro no. Yaadin cine no araŋ ga hari kaa d'a i se tondo ra hala jama ma haŋ, ngey nd'i almaney.»
9Moses took the rod from before Yahweh, as he commanded him.
9 Goobo kaŋ go Rabbi jine binde, Musa n'a sambu, sanda mate kaŋ a ci a se din.
10Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels; shall we bring you water out of this rock for you?”
10 Musa nda Haruna na jama margu tondo jine. Musa ne i se: «Araŋ murtantey, wa hangan sohõ! Iri no ga hari fattandi araŋ se a ma fun tondo wo ra, wala?»
11Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice: and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their livestock.
11 Kala Musa na nga kamba sambu ka tondo kar da goobo hala sorro hinka. Hari boobo mo fatta a ra, kala jama haŋ, ngey nda i almaney.
12Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you didn’t believe in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”
12 Amma Rabbi salaŋ Musa nda Haruna se ka ne: «Zama araŋ man'ay cimandi k'ay beerandi mo Israyla izey jine, woodin se no araŋ si konda jama wo ka furo nd'a laabo kaŋ ay g'i no din ra.»
13These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with Yahweh, and he was sanctified in them.
13 I ga ne noodin haro se Meriba hari, zama Israyla izey na Rabbi jance noodin. Amma a na nga boŋ cabe kaŋ nga ya Hananyankoy no i game ra.
14Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, saying: “Thus says your brother Israel: You know all the travail that has happened to us:
14 Waato kaŋ i go Kades, Musa na diyayaŋ donton i ma koy Edom bonkoono do ka ne a se: «Ni nya-izo Israyla ne: Ni jin ka maa taabi kulu kaŋ to iri,
15how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and our fathers:
15 mate kaŋ iri kaayey zulli ka koy Misira laabu, hala iri goro Misira ka gay noodin. Misirancey mo na laala cabe iri nd'iri kaayey se.
16and when we cried to Yahweh, 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 your border.
16 Waato kaŋ iri hẽ Rabbi gaa binde, a maa iri hẽeno jinda, ka malayka fo donton. Nga no k'iri fattandi iri ma fun Misira ra. Guna mo, iri neeya ne Kades, kwaara fo kaŋ go ni hirro me gaa.
17“Please let us pass through your 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 your border.”
17 Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma yadda iri ma bisa ni laabo bindo ra. Iri si furo fari kulu ra, wala reyzin kali kulu ra, iri si dayey hari haŋ mo. Bonkoono fondo beero day no iri ga gana. Iri si kamba ne-haray wala ya-haray mo kal iri ma to yongo hirro me.»
18Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
18 Amma Edom tu ka ne a se: «Ni si bisa ay game ra, zama ay ma si fatta ni gaa nda takuba.»
19The children of Israel said to him, “We will go up by the highway; and if we drink of your water, I and my livestock, then will I give its price: let me only, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet.”
19 Israyla izey ye ka tu a se ka ne: «Bonkoono fondo beero no iri ga gana. D'a ciya iri na ni hari haŋ mo, iri nd'iri almaney, iri g'a nooro bana. Kala ma naŋ day ay ma bisa ce gaa.»
20He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
20 Edom ye ka tu a se ka ne: «Ni si bisa.» Waato din gaa Edom fatta a gaa da sooje boobo, da kambe gaabikooni mo.
21Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
21 Yaadin no Edom wangu nga ma naŋ Israyla ma furo ka bisa nga laabo ra. Woodin sabbay se no Israyla kamba ka fay d'a.
22They traveled from Kadesh: and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
22 I tun za Kades kwaara, i goono ga dira. Kala Israyla izey jama kulu to Hor tondo do.
23Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
23 Rabbi salaŋ Musa nda Haruna se noodin, waato kaŋ i go Hor tondo do, kaŋ ga maan Edom laabu hirro. A ne i se:
24“Aaron shall be gathered to his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
24 «I ga Haruna ye nga kaayey do, zama a si du ka furo laabo kaŋ ay no Israyla izey se din ra. Sabaabo ga ti: zama araŋ tunanda ay sanno gaa Meriba haro do.
25Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
25 Ni ma konda Haruna nda nga izo Eliyezar ni banda, ka kaaru Hor tondo boŋ.
26and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be taken, and shall die there.”
26 Ni ma Haruna bankaarayey kaa a gaa noodin, k'i daŋ a izo Eliyezar gaa. I ga Haruna ye nga dumo do, kaŋ ga ti a ga bu noodin.»
27Moses did as Yahweh commanded: and they went up into Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
27 Musa mo te mate kaŋ cine Rabbi ci a se. I kaaru Hor tondo boŋ jama kulu jine.
28Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
28 Musa na Haruna bankaarayey kaa a gaa. A n'i daŋ Eliyezar, Haruna izo gaa. Kala Haruna bu noodin tondo boŋ. Musa nda Eliyezar mo zumbu ka fun tondo boŋ.
29When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
29 Waato kaŋ jama kulu bay kaŋ Haruna te ka si, kala Israyla dumo kulu n'a baray hala jirbi waranza.
