Numbers 20

And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Sin, in the first month, and the people abode in Cades; and Mariam died there, and was buried there.

Καὶ ἦλθον οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ, εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Σὶν, ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ πρώτῳ, καὶ κατέμεινεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν Κάδης· καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν ἐκεῖ Μαριὰμ, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐκεῖ.

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

Καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὕδωρ τῇ συναγωγῇ· καὶ ἠθροίσθησαν ἐπὶ Μωυσῆν καὶ Ἀαρών.

And the people reviled Moses, saying, Would we had died in the destruction of our brethren before the Lord!

Καὶ ἐλοιδορεῖτο ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγοντες, ὄφελον ἀπεθάνομεν ἐν τῇ ἀπωλείᾳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν ἔναντι Κυρίου.

And wherefore have ye brought up the congregation of the Lord into this wilderness, to kill us and our cattle?

Καὶ ἱνατί ἀνηγάγετε τὴν συναγωγὴν Κυρίου εἰς τὴν ἔρημον ταύτην ἀποκτεῖναι ἡμᾶς, καὶ τα κτήνη ἡμῶν;

And wherefore is this? Ye have brought us up out of Egypt, that we should come into this evil place; a place where there is no sowing, neither figs, nor vines, nor pomegranates, neither is there water to drink.

Καὶ ἱνατί τοῦτο; ἀνηγάγετε ἡμᾶς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, παραγενέσθαι εἰς τὸν τόπον τὸν πονηρὸν τοῦτον· τόπος οὗ οὐ σπείρεται, οὐδὲ συκαῖ, οὐδὲ ἄμπελοι, οὔτε ῥοαὶ, οὔτε ὕδωρ ἐστὶ πιεῖν.

And Moses and Aaron went from before the assembly to the door of the tabernacle of witness, and they fell upon their faces; and the glory of the Lord appeared to them.

Καὶ ἦλθε Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς συναγωγῆς ἐπὶ τὴν θύραν τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐπὶ πρόσωπον· καὶ ὤφθη ἡ δόξα Κυρίου πρὸς αὐτοὺς.

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων,

Take thy rod, and call the assembly, thou and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye to the rock before them, and it shall give forth its waters; and ye shall bring forth for them water out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their cattle.

λάβε τὴν ῥάβδον σου, καὶ ἐκκλησίασον τὴν συναγωγὴν σὺ καὶ Ἀαρὼν ὁ ἀδελφός σου, καὶ λαλήσατε πρὸς τὴν πέτραν ἐναντίον αὐτῶν, καὶ δώσει τὰ ὕδατα αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐξοίσετε αὐτοῖς ὕδωρ ἐκ τῆς πέτρας, καὶ ποτιεῖτε τὴν συναγωγὴν, καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν.

And Moses took his rod which was before the Lord, as the Lord commanded.

Καὶ ἔλαβε Μωυσῆς τὴν ῥάβδον τὴν ἀπέναντι Κυρίου, καθὰ συνέταξε Κύριος.

And Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation before the rock, and said to them, Hear me, ye disobedient ones; must we bring you water out of this rock?

Καὶ ἐξεκκλησίασε Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν τὴν συναγωγὴν ἀπέναντι τῆς πέτρας, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ἀκούσατέ μου οἱ ἀπειθεῖς· μὴ ἐκ τῆς πέτρας ταύτης ἐξάξομεν ὑμῖν ὕδωρ;

And Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock with his rod twice; and much water came forth, and the congregation drank, and their cattle.

Καὶ ἐπάρας Μωυσῆς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, ἐπάταξε τὴν πέτραν τῇ ῥάβδῳ δίς· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὕδωρ πολὺ, καὶ ἔπιεν ἡ συναγωγὴ, καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν.

And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, Because ye have not believed me to sanctify me before the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.

Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ Ἀαρὼν, ὅτι οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε ἁγιάσαι με ἐναντίον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ εἰσάξετε ὑμεῖς τὴν συναγωγὴν ταύτην εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν δέδωκα αὐτοῖς.

This is the water of Strife, because the children of Israel spoke insolently before the Lord, and he was sanctified in them.

Τοῦτο τὸ ὕδωρ Ἀντιλογίας, ὅτι ἐλοιδορήθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ ἡγιάσθη ἐν αὐτοῖς.

And Moses sent messengers from Cades to the king of Edom, saying, Thus says thy brother Israel; Thou knowest all the distress that has come upon us.

Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς ἀγγέλους ἐκ Κάδης πρὸς βασιλέα Ἐδὼμ, λέγων, τάδε λέγει ὁ ἀδελφός σου Ἰσραήλ· σὺ ἐπίστῃ πάντα τὸν μόχθον τὸν εὑρόντα ἡμᾶς.

And how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we sojourned in Egypt many days, and the Egyptians afflicted us and our fathers.

Καὶ κατέβησαν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν εἰς Αἴγυπτον, καὶ παρῳκήσαμεν ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ ἡμέρας πλείους, καὶ ἐκάκωσαν ἡμᾶς οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καὶ τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν.

And we cried to the Lord, and the Lord heard our voice, and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt; and now we are in the city of Cades, at the extremity of thy coasts.

Καὶ ἀνεβοήσαμεν πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς ἡμῶν, καὶ ἀποστείλας ἄγγελον, ἐξήγαγεν ἡμᾶς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου· καὶ νῦν ἐσμὲν ἐν Κάδης πόλει, ἐκ μέρους τῶν ὁρίων σου.

We will pass through thy land: we will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards, nor will we drink water out of thy cistern: we will go by the king's highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left, until we have passed thy borders.

Παρελευσόμεθα διὰ τῆς γῆς σου· οὐ διελευσόμεθα διʼ ἀγρῶν, οὐδὲ διʼ ἀμπελώνων, οὐδὲ πιόμεθα ὕδωρ ἐκ λάκκου σου· ὁδῷ βασιλικῇ πορευσόμεθα· οὐκ ἐκκλινοῦμεν δεξιὰ οὐδὲ εὐώνυμα, ἕως ἂν παρέλθωμεν τὰ ὅριά σου.

And Edom said to him, Thou shalt not pass through me, and if otherwise, I will go forth to meet thee in war.

Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν Ἐδὼμ, Οὐ διελεύσῃ διʼ ἐμοῦ· εἰ δὲ μὴ, ἐν πολέμῳ ἐξελεύσομαι εἰς συνάντησίν σοι.

And the children of Israel say to him, We will pass by the mountain; and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, I will pay thee: but it is no matter of importance, we will go by the mountain.

Καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, παρὰ τὸ ὄρος παρελευσόμεθα· ἐὰν δὲ τοῦ ὕδατός σου πίωμεν ἐγώ τε καὶ τὰ κτήνη μου, δώσω τιμήν σοι· ἀλλὰ τὸ πρᾶγμα οὐδέν ἐστι· παρὰ τὸ ὄρος παρελευσόμεθα.

And he said, Thou shalt not pass through me; and Edom went forth to meet him with a great host, and a mighty hand.

Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, οὐ διελεύσῃ διʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἐδὼμ εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ ἐν ὄχλῳ βαρεῖ, καὶ ἐν χειρὶ ἰσχυρᾷ.

So Edom refused to allow Israel to pass through his borders, and Israel turned away from him.

Καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν Ἐδὼμ δοῦναι τῷ Ἰσραὴλ παρελθεῖν διὰ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐξέκλινεν Ἰσραὴλ ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ.

And they departed from Cades; and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Or.

Καὶ ἀπῇραν ἐκ Καδης· καὶ παρεγένοντο οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ εἰς Ὢρ τὸ ὄρος.

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in mount Or, on the borders of the land of Edom, saying,

Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ Ἀαρὼν ἐν Ὢρ τῷ ὄρει ἐπὶ τῶν ὁρίων τῆς γῆς Ἐδὼμ, λέγων,

Let Aaron be added to his people; for ye shall certainly not go into the land which I have given the children of Israel, because ye provoked me at the water of strife.

προστεθήτω Ἀαρὼν πρὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ὅτι οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθητε εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν δέδωκα τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ, διότι παρωξύνατέ με ἐπὶ τοῦ ὕδατος τῆς λοιδορίας.

Take Aaron, and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to the mount Or before all the congregation;

Λάβε τὸν Ἀαρὼν, καὶ Ἐλεάζαρ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀναβίβασον αὐτοὺς εἰς Ὢρ τὸ ὄρος, ἔναντι πάσης τῆς συναγωγῆς,

and take Aaron's apparel from off him, and put it on Eleazar his son: and let Aaron die there and be added to his people.

καὶ ἔκδυσον Ἀαρὼν τὴν στολὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔνδυσον Ἐλεάζαρ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ Ἀαρὼν προστεθεὶς ἀποθανέτω ἐκεῖ.

And Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and took him up to mount Or, before all the congregation.

Καὶ ἐποίησε Μωυσῆς καθὰ συνέταξε Κύριος αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀνεβίβασεν αὐτὸν εἰς Ὢρ τὸ ὄρος, ἐναντίον πάσης τῆς συναγωγῆς,

And he took Aaron's garments off him, and put them on Eleazar his son, and Aaron died on the top of the mountain; and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.

καὶ ἐξέδυσε τὸν Ἀαρὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐνέδυσεν αὐτὰ Ἐλεάζαρ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἀαρὼν ἐπὶ τῆς κορυφῆς τοῦ ὄρους· καὶ κατέβη Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἐλεάζαρ ἐκ τοῦ ὄρους.

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

Καὶ εἶδε πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ ὅτι ἀπελύθη Ἀαρὼν, καὶ ἔκλαυσαν τὸν Ἀαρὼν τριάκοντα ἡμέρας πᾶς οἶκος Ἰσραήλ.
