4 Mojžišova 20
1 I přitáhlo všecko množství synů Izraelských na poušť Tsin, měsíce prvního; i pozůstal lid v Kádes, kdež umřela Maria, a tu jest pochována.
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 A když množství to nemělo vody, sešli se proti Mojžíšovi, a proti Aronovi.
There was no water for the people to drink there, so they came to Aaron and Moses/me.
3 I domlouval se lid na Mojžíše, a mluvili, řkouce: Ó kdybychom i my byli zemřeli, když zemřeli bratří naši před Hospodinem!
They complained and said, “We wish that we had died in front of Yahweh’s Sacred Tent when our fellow Israelis died!
4 Proč jste jen uvedli shromáždění Hospodinovo na poušť tuto, abychom zde pomřeli i my i dobytek náš?
(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 A proč jste nás vyvedli z Egypta, abyste uvedli nás na toto zlé místo, na němž se nerodí ani obilí, ani fíků, ani hroznů, ani jablek zrnatých, na kterémž ani vody ku pití není?
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 Tedy odšel Mojžíš s Aronem od tváři shromáždění ke dveřím stánku úmluvy, a padli na tváři své; i ukázala se sláva Hospodinova nad nimi.
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 A mluvil Hospodin k Mojžíšovi, řka:
and he said to Moses/me,
8 Vezmi hůl, a shromáždíce všecko množství, ty i Aron bratr tvůj, mluvte k skále této před očima jejich, a vydá vodu svou. I vyvedeš jim vodu z skály, a dáš nápoj všemu množství i dobytku jejich.
“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 Tedy vzal Mojžíš hůl před tváří Hospodinovou, jakž rozkázal jemu.
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 I svolali Mojžíš s Aronem všecko množství před skálu, a řekl jim: Slyštež nyní, ó reptáci: Zdali z skály této vyvedeme vám vodu?
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 I pozdvihl Mojžíš ruky své, a udeřil v skálu holí svou po dvakrát; i vyšly vody hojné, a pilo všecko množství i dobytek jejich.
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 Potom řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi a Aronovi: Že jste mi nevěřili, abyste posvětili mne před očima synů Izraelských, proto neuvedete shromáždění tohoto do země, kterouž jsem jim dal.
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 Toť jsou ty vody sváru, o kteréž svařili se synové Izraelští s Hospodinem, a posvěcen jest v nich.
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 I poslal Mojžíš posly z Kádes k králi Edom, aby řekli: Totoť vzkazuje bratr tvůj Izrael: Ty víš o všech těžkostech, kteréž přišly na nás,
[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 Že sstoupili otcové naši do Egypta, a bydlili jsme tam za mnoho let. Egyptští pak ssužovali nás i otce naše.
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 A volali jsme k Hospodinu, kterýž uslyšel hlas náš, a poslav anděla, vyvedl nás z Egypta, a aj, již jsme v Kádes městě, při pomezí tvém.
“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 Nechť, prosím, projdeme skrze zemi tvou. Nepůjdeme přes rolí, ani přes vinice, aniž píti budeme vody z čí studnice; cestou královskou půjdeme a neuchýlíme se na pravo ani na levo, dokavadž nepřejdeme mezí tvých.
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 Jemužto odpověděl Edom: Nechoď skrze mou zemi, abych s mečem nevyšel v cestu tobě.
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 I řekli mu synové Izraelští: Obecnou silnicí půjdeme, a jestliže vody tvé napili bychom se, buď my neb dobytek náš, zaplatíme ji; nic jiného nežádáme, toliko pěší abychom prošli.
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 Odpověděl: Neprojdeš. A vytáhl proti nim Edom s množstvím lidu a s silou velikou.
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 Když tedy nedopustil Edom Izraelovi, aby přešel meze jeho, uchýlil se Izrael od něho.
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 A hnuvše se synové Izraelští i všecko množství jejich z Kádes, přišli na horu řečenou Hor.
The Israeli people left Kadesh. They went to Hor Mountain,
23 I mluvil Hospodin k Mojžíšovi a Aronovi na hoře Hor, při pomezí země Edom, řka:
[which is at the border of Edom]. While they were there, Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
24 Připojen bude Aron k lidu svému; nebo nevejde do země, kterouž jsem dal synům Izraelským, proto že jste odporni byli řeči mé při vodách sváru.
“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 Pojmi Arona a Eleazara syna jeho, a uvedeš je na horu Hor.
Now you, Moses, take Aaron and his son Eleazar up on Hor Mountain.
26 A svlečeš Arona z roucha jeho, a oblečeš v ně Eleazara syna jeho; nebo Aron připojen bude k lidu svému, a tam umře.
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 I učinil Mojžíš, jakž rozkázal Hospodin, a vstoupili na horu Hor před očima všeho množství.
So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. The three of them/us climbed up Hor Mountain, while all the Israeli people watched.
28 A svlékl Mojžíš Arona z roucha jeho, a oblékl v ně Eleazara syna jeho. I umřel tam Aron na pahrbku hory, Mojžíš pak a Eleazar sstoupili s hory.
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 Vidouce pak všecko množství, že umřel Aron, plakali ho za třidceti dní všecken dům Izraelský.
When the Israeli people realized that Aaron had died, they all mourned for him for 30 days.
