Na Helu 20
1 A LAILA hele mai la ka poe mamo a Iseraela, o ke anaina kanaka a pau i ka waonahele o Zina, i ka malama mua: a noho iho la na kanaka ma Kadesa; malaila i make ai o Miriama, a ua kanuia iho la ia ma ia wahi.
So the people of Israel, the whole community, went into the wilderness of Zin in the first month; they stayed at Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried.
2 Aohe wai ilaila no ke anaina kanaka: a hoakoakoa ae la lakou ia lakou iho, a ku e ia Mose laua me Aarona.
There was no water for the community, so they assembled together against Moses and Aaron.
3 Hakaka ae la na kanaka me Mose, olelo ae la lakou penei, E aho ko makou make, i ka manawa i make ai na hoahanau o makou imua o Iehova!
The people complained against Moses. They said, “It would have been better if we had died when our fellow Israelites died in front of Yahweh!
4 No ke aha hoi olua i alakai mai nei i ke anaina kanaka o Iehova iloko o keia waonahele i make ai makou me na holoholona a makou?
Why have you brought Yahweh's community into this wilderness to die here, we and our animals?
5 No ke aha la olua i hoohele mai nei ia makou mai Aigupita mai, e hookomo ai ia makou iloko o keia wahi ino? Aole keia he wahi no na anoano, aohe fiku, aole kumu waina, aole pomeraite, aole hoi wai e inu ai.
Why did you make us come up out of Egypt to bring us to this horrible place? Here there is no seed, figs, vines, or pomegranates, and there is no water to drink.”
6 Hele aku la o Mose laua o Aarona mai ke alo o ke anaina kanaka aku a ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina, a moe iho la laua ilalo ke alo; a ikea mai la ka nani o Iehova ia laua.
So Moses and Aaron went away from in front of the assembly. They went to the entrance of the tent of meeting and lay facedown. There Yahweh's brilliant glory appeared to them.
7 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
8 E lawe oe i ke kookoo, a e hoakoakoa oe i ke anaina kanaka, o oe a me Aarona kou kaikuaana, a e olelo aku olua i ka pohaku imua o na maka o lakou; a e haawi mai ia i kona wai, a e lawe mai oe i ka wai no lakou mailoko mai o ka pohaku: a pela no oe e hooinu ai i ke anaina kanaka, a me ka lakou poe holoholona.
“Take the staff and assemble the community, you, and Aaron your brother. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and command it to flow with water. You will produce water for them out of that rock, and you must give it to the community and their cattle to drink.”
9 Lawe aku la o Mose i ke kookoo mai ke alo o Iehova aku, e like me kana i kauoha mai ai ia ia.
Moses took the staff from before Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded him to do.
10 Houluulu ae la o Mose laua o Aarona i ke anaina kanaka imua o ka pohaku, i aku la oia ia lakou, E hoolohe mai oukou, e ka poe kipi; pono anei no maua e hookahe iho i ka wai mailoko mai o keia pohaku?
Then Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock. Moses said to them, “Listen now, you rebels. Must we bring water out of this rock for you?”
11 Kaikai ae la o Mose i kona lima iluna, hahau iho la i ka pohaku, me kona kookoo, elua hahau ana; a kahe nui mai la ka wai: inu iho la ke anaina kanaka a me ko lakou poe holoholona.
Then Moses raised his hand and struck the rock twice with his staff, and much water came out. The community drank, and their cattle drank.
12 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona, No ko olua manaoio ole mai ia'u, e hoauo mai ia'u imua o na mamo a Iseraela, nelaila, aole olua e kai aku i keia anaina kanaka i ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai no lakou.
Then Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not trust me or honor me as holy in the eyes of the people of Israel, you will not bring this assembly into the land I have given them.”
13 O keia ka wai no Meriba; no ka mea, ua aaka mai na mamo a Iseraela me Iehova, a ua hoanoia oia ia lakou.
This place was called the waters of Meribah because the people of Israel had quarreled with Yahweh there, and he showed himself to them as holy.
14 Hoouna aku la o Mose i na elele mai Kadesa aku i ke alii o Edoma, Penei ka ka hoahanau ou, ka Iseraela e olelo aku nei, Ua ike no oe i ka luhi a pau i loaa ia makou;
Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom: Your brother Israel says this: “You know all the difficulties that have happened to us.
15 I ka iho ana o ko makou poe kupuna ilalo i Aigupita, a he liuliu ko makou noho ana i Aigupita; a hoopilikia mai ko Aigupita ia makou a me ko makou poe kupuna.
You know that our ancestors went down to Egypt and lived in Egypt a long time. The Egyptians treated us harshly and also our ancestors.
16 A i a wa i hea aku ai makou ia Iehova, hoolohe mai la oia i ko makou leo, a hoouna mai la i anela, a ua hoopuka mai ia makou iwaho o Aigupita: eia hoi makou ma Kadesa nei, he kulanakauhale ma ke kihi loa o kou palena.
When we called out to Yahweh, he heard our voice and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt. Look, we are in Kadesh, a city on the border of your land.
17 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe ia makou e hele aku mawaena o kou aina: aole makou e hele mawaena o na mahinaai, aole hoi mawaena o na pawaina, aole hoi makou e inu i ka wai o na punawai; e hele no makou ma ke alaloa o ke alii, aole makou e kipa ma ka akau, aole hoi ma ka hema, a hala aku makou i na palena ou.
I am asking you to let us pass through your land. We will not pass through field or vineyard, nor will we drink the water in your wells. We will go along the king's highway. We will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left until we have passed your border.”
18 I mai la o Edoma ia ia, Mai hele ae oe ma o'u nei o hele aku au e ku e ia oe me ka pahikaua.
But the king of Edom replied to him, “You may not pass through here. If you do, I will come with the sword to attack you.”
19 I aku la ka poe mamo a Iseraela ia ia, E hele no makou ma ke alaloa, a iua e inu au a me ko'u poe holoholona i kou wai, alaila e uku aku no au ia mea: e hele wale no makou ma ko makou mau wawae, aole e hana i kekahi mea e ae.
Then the people of Israel said to him, “We will go along the highway. If we or our livestock drink your water, we will pay for it. Just let us walk through on foot, without doing anything else.”
20 I mai la kela, Aole loa oe e hele mawaena mai. A puka mai la ko Edoma e ku e mai ia ia, me na kanaka he nui loa, a me ka lima ikaika.
But the king of Edom replied, “You may not pass through.” So the king of Edom came against Israel with a strong hand with many soldiers.
21 Pela no o Edoma i hoole mai ai i ka haawi ana i alanui no ka Iseraela mawaena o kona palena: no ia mea, haliu ae la ka Iseraela mai ona aku la.
The king of Edom refused to allow Israel to cross over their border. Because of this, Israel turned away from the land of Edom.
22 Hele aku la na mamo a Iseraela, o ke anaina kanaka a pau, mai Kadesa aku a hiki i ke kuahiwi o Hora.
So the people journeyed from Kadesh. The people of Israel, the whole community, came to Mount Hor.
23 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona ma ke kuahiwi o Hora, ma ka palena aina o Edoma, i mai la,
Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron at Mount Hor, on Edom's border. He said,
24 E hui pu ia'ku o Aarona me kona poe kanaka: aole ia e komo i ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai no na mamo a Iseraela, no ka mea, ua ku e mai olua i ka'u olelo ma ka wai Meriba.
“Aaron must be gathered to his people, for he will not enter the land that I have given to the people of Israel. This is because you both rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
25 E lawe oe ia Aarona a me kana keiki o Eleazara, e kai aku ia laua maluna ma ko kuahiwi o Hora.
Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor.
26 E wehe ae i ka aahu o Aarona, a e hookomo i kana keiki ia Eleazara: a e hui pu ia'ku o Aarona, a e make no ia malaila.
Take Aaron's priestly garments off him and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron must die and be gathered to his people there.”
27 Hana iho la o Mose e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai: a pii aku la laua ma ke kuahiwi o Hora imua o ke anaina kanaka a pau.
Moses did as Yahweh commanded. They went up Mount Hor in the sight of all the community.
28 Wehe ae la o Mose i na aahu o Aarona, a hoaahu ae la maluna o kana keiki o Eleazara: a make iho la o Aarona malaila ma kahi oi o ke kuahiwi: a iho iho la o Mose laua o Eleazara mai ke kuahiwi mai.
Moses took Aaron's priestly garments off him and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down.
29 A ike aku la ke anaina kanaka a pau, na make o Aarona, kanikau iho la ka Iseraela a pau ia Aarona i na la he kanakolu.
When all the community saw that Aaron was dead, the entire nation wept for Aaron for thirty days.
