Numbers 20
1 And the children of Israel, and all the multitude came into the desert of Sin, in the first month: and the people abode in Cades. And Mary died there, and was buried in the same place.
Konsa, fis Israël yo, tout kongregasyon an, te vini nan dezè a Tsin nan, nan premye mwa a. Pèp la te rete Kadès. Alò, Marie te mouri e li te antere la.
2 And the people wanting water, came together against Moses and Aaron:
Pa t gen dlo pou kongregasyon an, e yo te vin reyini yo menm kont Moïse avèk Aaron.
3 And making a sedition, they said: Would God we had perished among our brethren before the Lord.
Konsa, pèp la te fè kont avèk Moïse e te pale pou di: “Si sèlman nou te mouri lè frè nou yo te mouri devan SENYÈ a!
4 Why have you brought out the church of the Lord into the wilderness, that both we and our cattle should die?
Epi poukisa ou te mennen asanble SENYÈ a antre nan dezè sila a, pou nou menm avèk bèt nou yo vin mouri isit la?
5 Why have you made us come up out of Egypt, and have brought us into this wretched place which cannot be sowed, nor bringeth forth figs, nor vines, nor pomegranates, neither is there any water to drink?
Poukisa ou te fè nou sòti an Égypte pou mennen nou kote mechan sila a? Se pa yon kote ki gen, ni fig, ni grenad, ni pa gen dlo pou bwè.”
6 And Moses and Aaron leaving the multitude, went into the tabernacle of the covenant, and fell flat upon the ground, and cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord God, hear the cry of this people, and open to them thy treasure, a fountain of living water, that being satisfied, they may cease to murmur. And the glory of the Lord appeared over them.
Moïse avèk Aaron te sòti nan prezans asanble a nan pòtay tant asanble a, e yo te tonbe sou figi yo. Alò, glwa a SENYÈ a te vin parèt a yo menm.
7 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Konsa, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
8 Take the rod, and assemble the people together, thou and Aaron thy brother, and speak to the rock before them, and it shall yield waters. And when thou hast brought forth water out of the rock, all the multitude and their cattle shall drink.
“Pran baton an. Ou menm avèk frè ou a, Aaron, rasanble kongregasyon an e pale avèk wòch la devan zye yo, pou li kapab bay dlo pa li. Konsa, ou va fè dlo parèt pou yo sòti nan wòch la e kite kongregasyon an avèk bèt yo bwè.”
9 Moses therefore took the rod, which was before the Lord, as he had commanded him,
Konsa, Moïse te pran baton an soti devan SENYÈ a, jis jan ke Li te kòmande li a.
10 And having gathered together the multitude before the rock, he said to them: Hear, ye rebellious and incredulous: Can we bring you forth water out of this rock?
Epi Moïse avèk Aaron te reyini asanble a devan wòch la. Li te di yo: “Koute m koulye a, nou menm k ap fè rebèl; èske n ap fè dlo sòti nan wòch sila a?”
11 And when Moses had lifted up his hand, and struck the rock twice with the rod, there came forth water in great abundance, so that the people and their cattle drank,
Epi Moïse te leve men li e li te frape wòch la de fwa avèk baton an. Dlo te sòti an kantite, e kongregasyon an avèk bèt pa yo te bwè.
12 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron: Because you have not believed me, to sanctify me before the children of Israel, you shall not bring these people into the land, which I will give them.
Men SENYÈ a te di a Moïse avèk Aaron: “Akoz ke nou pa kwè M, pou trete m tankou sen devan fis Israël yo; pou sa, nou p ap mennen asanble sila a antre nan peyi ke M te bay yo a.”
13 This is the Water of contradiction, where the children of Israel strove with words against the Lord, and he was sanctified in them.
Sa yo se te dlo a Meriba yo, akoz fis a Israël yo te fè kont avèk SENYÈ a, e Li te fè prèv sentete Li pami yo.
14 In the mean time Moses sent messengers from Cades to the king of Edom, to say: Thus saith thy brother Israel: Thou knowest all the labour that hath come upon us:
Soti nan Kadès, Moïse te voye mesaj vè wa Édom an: “Konsa frè ou a, Israël te pale: ‘Ou konnen tout traka ki gen tan pran nou;
15 In what manner our fathers went down into Egypt, and there we dwelt a long time, and the Egyptians afflicted us and our fathers.
ke zansèt nou yo te desann an Égypte, e ke nou te rete an Égypte pandan anpil tan, e ke Ejipsyen yo te maltrete nou anpil.
16 And how we cried to the Lord, and he heard us, and sent an angel, who hath brought us out of Egypt. Lo, we are now in the city of Cades, which is in the uttermost of thy borders,
Men lè nou te kriye fò bay SENYÈ a, Li te tande vwa nou. Li te voye yon zanj pou te mennen nou sòti an Égypte. Alò, gade byen, nou rive Kadès, yon vil nan fwontyè teritwa pa nou an.
17 And we beseech thee that we may have leave to pass through thy country. We will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards, we will not drink the waters of thy wells, but we will go by the common highway, neither turning aside to the right hand, nor to the left, till we are past thy borders.
“Souple, kite nou pase nan peyi pa nou an. Nou p ap pase nan chan yo oswa nan rezen yo. Nou p ap menm bwè dlo nan yon pwi. Nou va ale bò kote chemen wa a, san vire ni adwat, ni agoch jiskaske nou fin pase nan tout teritwa nou an.”
18 And Edom answered them: Thou shalt not pass by me: if thou dost I will come out armed against thee.
“‘Men Édom te di li: “Ou p ap pase sou nou; sinon, mwen ap vini kont nou avèk nepe.”’”
19 And the children of Israel said: We will go by the beaten way: and if we and our cattle drink of thy waters, we will give thee what is just: there shall be no difficulty in the price, only let us pass speedily.
“Ankò, fis Israël yo te di li: ‘Nou va monte vè chemen an, e si Mwen avèk bèt mwen yo bwè nan dlo nou an; alò, m ap peye pri li. Kite mwen sèlman pase ladann a pye, anyen anplis.’”
20 But he answered: Thou shalt not pass. And immediately he came forth to meet them with an infinite multitude, and a strong hand,
Men li te di: “Ou p ap pase ladann.” Epi Édom te sòti kont li avèk yon gwo fòs ak yon men pwisan.
21 Neither would he condescend to their desire to grant them passage through his borders. Wherefore Israel turned another way from him.
Konsa, Édom te refize kite Israël pase nan teritwa pa li a. Pou sa Israël te vire kite li.
22 And when they had removed the camp from Cades, they came to mount Her, which is in the borders of the land of Edom:
Alò, yo te sòti Kadès, epi fis Israël yo ak tout kongregasyon an te vini nan Mòn Hor.
23 Where the Lord spoke to Moses:
SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse ak Aaron nan Mòn Hor akote fwontyè Édom an. Li te di:
24 Let Aaron, saith he, go to his people: for he shall not go into the land which I have given the children of Israel, because he was incredulous to my words, at the waters of contradiction.
“Aaron va rasanble vè pèp li a; paske li pa pou antre nan peyi ke Mwen te bay a fis Israël yo, akoz nou te vin rebèl kont kòmand Mwen nan dlo a Meriba yo.
25 Take Aaron and his son with him, and bring them up into mount Hor:
Pran Aaron avèk fis li a, Éléazar e mennen yo nan Mòn Hor.
26 And when thou hast stripped the father of his vesture, thou shalt vest therewith Eleazar his son: Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and die there.
Retire tout vètman yo sou Aaron e mete yo sou fis li a, Éléazar. Konsa, Aaron va rasanble vè pèp li a, e li va mouri la.”
27 Moses did as the Lord had commanded: and they went up into mount Hor before all the multitude.
Konsa Moïse te fè selon SENYÈ a te kòmande a. Yo te monte vè Mòn Hor devan zye a tout kongregasyon an.
28 And when he had stripped Aaron of his vestments, he vested Eleazar his son with them. And Aaron being dead in the top of the mountain, he came down with Eleazar.
Lè Moïse te fin retire vètman yo sou Aaron, li te mete yo sou Éléazar. Aaron te mouri la sou tèt mòn nan.
29 And all the multitude seeing that Aaron was dead, mourned for him thirty days throughout all their families.
Lè tout kongregasyon an te wè ke Aaron te mouri, tout lakay Israël te kriye pou Aaron pandan trantjou.
